Before today, Tong Wenchang was so high-spirited that he overshadowed all the younger generations in Wangcheng and trampled under his feet the younger generation of the Xiao family, Xiao Rufeng.
However, just when he was about to reach the top, he was kicked directly from the altar by Ye Yuan!
There was no peak battle, no equivalence. Ye Yuan, an alchemist who was younger than him and at a lower level, crushed Tong Wenchang with his absolute strength!
There is no flash of sword or shadow, but such a wound is more difficult to heal than a wound caused by a sword.
Tong Fangshuo knew that after today, Tong Wenchang would probably disappear among everyone!
But what he is worried about now is not this, but how the Tong family will withstand the wrath of the Alchemist Guild and the suppression of the Xiao family after they take power.
When he thought of this, Tong Fangshuo couldn't help but feel his head as big as a bucket.
At this moment, Emperor Xingyuan spoke: "Ji Qing."
The lobby fell silent for a moment, and everyone guessed what this top figure in the royal city's medicine refining world would do next!
Everyone looked at Ye Yuan, full of envy and blessings.
Yes, no one is jealous!
Ye Yuan has conquered everyone with his strength.
They know that they have no right to be jealous!
Ye Yuan bowed slightly and said: "Lord Xingyuan!"
Xingyuan nodded slightly and said, "Are you willing to become my teacher?"
If it were anyone else, I would probably jump up with excitement.
But to Ye Yuan, this was a bit ridiculous.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Yuan said calmly: "Junior is willing."
Of course Xingyuan is not qualified to be his master, and Ye Yuan naturally does not want to be his master, but Ye Yuan's current situation is very special.
In this royal city, he can be said to be an enemy everywhere.
Once his identity is discovered, he will undoubtedly die.
In this royal city, not to mention the powerful ones in the Immortal Ascension Realm, there are simply countless powerful ones in the Soul Sea Realm. If one of them comes out casually, he will die without a place to bury him.
Although he can use the secret soul skills to hide his soul, his appearance cannot be changed. If he is recognized by the people of the Lan tribe, he will be dead.
With a backer like Xingyuan, his safety will be greatly increased, and it will be much easier to save people.
Xingyuan smiled and nodded, obviously very satisfied with this apprentice.
At this time, Ye Yuan's weight in everyone's eyes naturally became different.
People from all walks of life quickly surrounded him.
"Congratulations to Brother Ji for becoming a famous teacher. Your future is limitless!"
"Congratulations to little brother Ji. I am the owner of Dehuatang. If little brother Ji needs anything from now on, just give me your instructions. I will never say anything to you if Dehuatang can give you."
…
For a time, Ye Yuan was extremely busy.
This process lasted for almost half an hour, and everyone gradually dispersed.
At this time, there were not many people left in the lobby, and even the elders of the Seven Great Alchemy Kings and the Xingyuan Emperor had disappeared.
Xiao Changfeng then stepped forward and bowed deeply to Ye Yuan: "On behalf of the Xiao family, I would like to express my gratitude to little brother Ji for his great kindness. This kindness is like being reborn in my Xiao family! Originally, Xiao was planning to give my little brother the post of elder of the Xiao family's guest minister.
The little brother can get whatever he wants from family resources, but since the little brother has become the disciple of the Xingyuan Emperor, I am afraid that this small reward is not worth it. If the little brother is useful to Xiao, you can ask for it, and Xiao will never give up.
!”
Ye Yuan said calmly: "Master, there is no need to be polite. I have nothing to ask for from the Xiao family. If the master really wants to thank you, just thank Miss Ruyan for me. If it weren't for her, Ji would have left in a hurry."
These words sounded a bit ambiguous, and Xiao Ruyan's face turned red behind Xiao Changfeng.
Xiao Changfeng felt bitter in his heart. As expected, his previous actions still angered this little ancestor.
But he was also secretly glad that this little ancestor seemed to have taken a liking to his daughter.
It's just... The Xiao family will soon hold a martial arts competition to recruit brides. The Xue and Huang families are already eyeing it, and now there is another Ji Qing. What should we do?
Xiao Changfeng felt a headache.
He took out a token from his body and handed it to Ye Yuan: "Brother Ji, this is the highest level token of my Xiao family. If you need anything, just take this token to any store under the Xiao family's name.
Industry, they will cooperate with you."
Ye Yuan nodded, not polite this time, he deserved it.
In fact, if he wasn't afraid that the old fox would become suspicious, Ye Yuan would have wanted to ask him directly for the two slaves.
However, Ye Yuan also knew that his origins were unknown, and no matter how obscure his words were, Xiao Changfeng would inevitably become suspicious.
How to approach those two people without leaving a trace would probably have to start with Xiao Ruyan, so he mentioned Xiao Ruyan deliberately, not to look at Xiao Changfeng's face.
"In that case, Ji will thank the head of the family." Ye Yuan reached out and took the token.
Seeing Ye Yuan accept the token, Xiao Changfeng also breathed a sigh of relief.
After today, Ye Yuan's identity becomes extraordinary.
A disciple of Emperor Xingyuan, he is also extremely powerful. It won't take long for such a person to be known to everyone in the royal city.
Being able to be friends with him will definitely be of great benefit to the Xiao family.
Xiao Changfeng laughed and said: "Little brother, you are so polite! Well...you young people have a common topic, so I, an old guy, will not get involved. Xiao will leave first. Ruyan, how close are you and little brother Ji?
, if little brother Ji has any request, just agree to it. Rufeng's old injury recurred and he wanted to go back to rest, so he went back with me."
As soon as Xiao Changfeng left, Xiao Ruyan relaxed a little, blushed slightly and said: "Ji Qing, this time... I really want to thank you!"
At this moment, Ye Yuan suddenly put on a rather playful smile and said, "I thought you would say something like 'I can't repay you with my life,' so that I could agree to it smoothly.
.”
At this time, Xiao Ruyan's face flushed red, and she couldn't help but spat: "You! Why are you so rude?"
"Haha, my fair lady is such a good gentleman. How can I say she is not serious? I am very serious now!" She said she was serious, but there was nothing serious about her face.
If it had been before, Xiao Ruyan would have definitely walked away.
But this was not the first day I had interacted with Ye Yuan, so I knew he was joking. Although he was a little shy, he resisted not hiding his face and running away.
What Ye Yuan didn't expect was that Xiao Ruyan suddenly looked gloomy and said, "My fair lady, how can I be such a gentleman? But I can't help myself!"
Ye Yuanqi said: "Now that the Xiao family's crisis has been resolved, will this competition to recruit relatives continue?"
Xiao Ruyan shook his head sadly and said: "Martialism is the most respected in the Wind Realm. Except for the Alchemist Guild, which can stand alone, the Alchemy Family is a vassal existence. Otherwise, with the financial resources of the Xiao family and the Tong family, they would have been ranked first.
Aristocratic families. In the royal city, the truly powerful ones are the first-class aristocratic families like the Huang family, the Xue family and the Shangguan family!"
