C1334 Ye Xuan Ba
"Is this the old ancestor?"
Looking at the blurry figure, Wu Chen knew that this person must be the old ancestor of the royal family of White Tiger Empire. It seemed like he was really on the verge of collapse.
Apart from the four white-haired old men who were sitting around the Spirit Pond, after scanning the surroundings, he found that... There were some people he knew, such as Ling’s and Su Can. There was also the Eighth Prince, Ye Wushang, and they were all here.
"What's that?"
Suddenly, he saw an old man. This old man was wearing the uniform of an alchemist. It was obvious that he was an apothecary, and the person who attracted his attention was... It wasn't his uniform, but the number of Golden Stripe on his chest. It was not six, but seven.
Seventh-rank alchemist.
"I think this person is Ying Kui."
There was only one seventh-rank alchemist in Sky Martial Continent, and that was Ying Kui. Therefore, it wasn't difficult for him to guess that this old man was that person.
"Elder Ying, is there really no other way?"
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man wearing a crown and a dragon patterned imperial robe. There was an extremely powerful aura coming from his body. He was no weaker than the Sect Master of Taiyi Sect, True Man Wuji. Clearly, he was a Demigod Level expert.
Ying Kui furrowed his brows and pondered for a while. Then, he said, "Your Majesty, the injury of the old ancestor is a wound of the Great Dao. Forgive me for my limited ability, but I can't do anything about it."
"Your Majesty?"
Wu Chen was startled. He didn't expect this middle-aged man to be the emperor of White Tiger Empire, Ye Xuanba, one of the super experts of Middle Profecture. His strength was extremely terrifying, and it was hard to imagine how powerful he was.
Ye Xuanba didn't say anything else. He just sighed lightly. It seemed like the old ancestor really couldn't endure it this time. He was probably going to die in meditation.
After a while, Ying Kui waved his hand and said, "All of you should leave as well. Let the old ancestor have a good rest."
Since there was no way to return, it would be meaningless for them to stay here any longer.
They didn't say anything. Right now, the old ancestor's condition was extremely bad. With their medical skills, there was nothing they could do.
Wu Chen was still watching. Suddenly, a hand patted his shoulder and said, "Little guy, let's go, too."
Wu Chen glanced at Yun Zhonghe and Royal Patriarch. After thinking for a while, he suddenly said in confusion, "Please wait a moment."
Then he turned around and walked inside.
"Wu Chen, where are you going?" Yun Zhonghe was shocked. He never thought that Wu Chen would actually walk inside.
Without saying anything, he followed Wu Chen into the palace, trying to pull him back. This was an important place of the royal family, they couldn't act recklessly here.
"This is?"
When the Sixth Rank alchemists saw Wu Chen walking towards them, they were startled as well. What was this kid trying to do?
"It's him."
Ling’s and Su Can also saw Wu Chen. They couldn't help but stop in their tracks, feeling very curious. When did this kid come in? Also, what was he trying to do?
"Isn't this Wu Chen?"
Very quickly, Ye Wushang also discovered Wu Chen. He couldn't help but be shocked. He remembered that Wu Chen was a cultivator, an expert on the Heavenly Stele Ranking. He was very powerful, when he was still a First Empyrean of Dragon Transformation Stage. He had already become a young tycoon. Now, his cultivation base had made another breakthrough. Once he reached the Third Empyrean of Dragon Transformation Stage, his strength would surely skyrocket. As for the exact extent of his strength... Even he couldn't tell.
However, what was up with Wu Chen now? Why was he wearing the uniform of an alchemist? Furthermore, his level wasn't low at all. He was a Tier 5 alchemist. If he was just a Tier 5 alchemist... He wouldn't be so shocked, but the other party is still a young man... He possessed extraordinary talent and strength in the path of cultivation. Adding all of these together... It was enough to make him feel extremely shocked.
Ignoring what the others were looking at, Wu Chen went straight to the edge of Spirit Pond. Along the way, he didn't encounter any obstacles. As for Ye Xuanba, he didn't stop him because Wu Chen was an alchemist. Although his level wasn't high, he was still a Tier 5 alchemist. However, at his age... To be able to reach the level of a Tier 5 alchemist was already considered pretty good.
"Master Yun."2
Ye Xuanba looked at Yun Zhonghe and felt a little surprised, because Yun Zhonghe had already left earlier. Why had he returned?
"Your Majesty."
Yun Zhonghe cupped his hands to Ye Xuanba to show respect. Then he walked quickly to Wu Chen's side and whispered, "Wu Chen, come with me quickly. This is not a place for you to come."
Now, Royal Patriarch's condition was serious and he was about to pass away. The royal family was very strict with this place. Once Wu Chen made any reckless move, he would immediately kill him. If this brought about a disaster, then it wouldn't be worth it.
However, Wu Chen acted as if he didn't hear anything. He didn't make any movements, but just stared at Royal Patriarch's old and thin figure.
At this moment, Ye Xuanba became vigilant. What was this young man looking at? Could it be that he wanted to do something bad to the old ancestor?
Wu Chen looked at him for a while, then took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.
"Sure, let me give it a try?"
His words were very soft, but it sounded like a huge yellow bell that exploded heavily, shocking everyone.
Ye Xuanba was the first to react. He asked, "What did you say? Say it again?"
Wu Chen turned his head and looked at Ye Xuanba. He said slowly, "Maybe I have a way to cure the old ancestor's illness."
When he said this, everyone was shocked. They whispered to each other and started discussing in low voices.
"What did this kid say? Did I hear it wrong?"
"He said that he had a way to treat the Old Ancestor."
"Heavens! Even we can't do anything about the old ancestor's illness. What can a mere tier five alchemist do?"
"Even Elder Ying can't do anything about it, let alone us."
"That's right. Where did this brat come from? To think that he would dare to speak such boastful words. He simply doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
Everyone discussed animatedly, expressing their disbelief.
"He really doesn't know the difference between life and death."
Su Can and Ling’s coldly harrumphed. It seemed like in these three years, not only did Wu Chen not make any progress in alchemy, even his intelligence had deteriorated. He actually dared to boast shamelessly and humiliate others.
This old ancestor's illness was very serious. Even a seventh-rank alchemist like Ying Kui couldn't do anything about it. What could a puny Fifth Grade alchemist like him do?
