C244 Performing to the Bet
At this moment, Chu King was very happy. After solving the problem of Dongzhou Country, the rest of the problems wouldn't be a problem anymore.
This time, Ye Tian was the greatest contributor to the Chu Country, causing Chu King's satisfaction towards Ye Tian to increase by a lot.
At the same time, he nodded at the old official. If the latter listened to Wang Ming's orders and interfered with the matter, perhaps things wouldn't be like this.
After that, the guards dragged the Dongzhou Country's ambassador away. The current situation was no longer as chaotic as before. The officials standing in the Imperial Court all shut their mouths.
The importance of an alchemist who could refine Heaven Level Pill had already risen to the level of importance that the Imperial Family attached importance to.
At this time, any negative words would make the Imperial Family feel disgusted. They would even stand on Ye Tian's side and execute those who questioned Ye Tian.
"Dongzhou Country has spent a lot of effort and took so many precious herbs to concoct a tenth grade Di ranked pill. Do you want to take it now?"
Ye Tian turned to look at the alchemist of Dongzhou and asked calmly. Every word of his was filled with killing intent, causing the alchemist's expression to freeze.
"Don't forget that you were the one who issued the challenge. All the conditions were in accordance with your wishes. Now, it's time for you to fulfill your promise, isn't it?"
Ye Tian didn't want to give any leeway when he saw the alchemist of Dongzhou closing in on him.
The envoy had acted just now because he was ordered by the alchemist. He didn't want Ye Tian to succeed, which was why he had done such a despicable thing.
"Alright. I admit that my Dongzhou Country's skill in alchemy isn't like the Great Chu of the Central Plains. From today onwards, I, Dongzhou Country, will no longer call myself a big country. I will also humbly learn from your country!"
Everything had been shattered after Ye Tian had refined the Heaven Level Pill. Previously, the alchemist had wanted to humiliate Ye Tian, but he had suffered such a huge humiliation in front of the Chu Country.
However, he had no choice. Everything was brought up by him first, and this matter could not be denied.
"I didn't ask you to tell me about this. I think you still remember the bet between the two of us, right?"
Ye Tian waved his hand impatiently. In his point of view, it wasn't worth mentioning who was stronger and weaker in front of such an alchemist.
He didn't want to hear this alchemist talk about useless things. It would be perfect for him to fulfill his previous bet.
Upon hearing Ye Tian's request, the alchemist of Dongzhou's facial expression changed dramatically. The reason why he said that just now was to avoid this topic.
However, he didn't expect Ye Tian to remember it so clearly and give him no time at all.
"Alright, I swear that from now on, I will wash my hands clean and no longer participate in pill concoction. I will retire now!"
The alchemist of Dongzhou had an ugly expression on his face. He, Ye Tian, and all the surrounding ministers made a solemn vow.
However, after he finished speaking, Ye Tian shook his head in dissatisfaction and did not agree with what the alchemist said.
"That's all you have to say. When you return to Dongzhou Country, who knows how many lies are hidden in your words? Are we going to personally send someone to see you because of this matter?"
Ye Tian naturally wouldn't agree to this matter. If this alchemist in front of him was a Chu people, perhaps after he made such an oath, Ye Tian wouldn't continue to pester him.
However, this alchemist was from Dongzhou Country. If he returned to his own territory, no one in Chu Country would know about him even if he continued to serve the imperial power of Dongzhou.
An alchemist might even become angry because of such a failure, and improve once again after a decade. At that time, it would be even more troublesome.
"Ye... Ye Tian! What do you want to do? I have already sworn in front of you. Don't go too far!"
When the alchemist of Dongzhou heard Ye Tian's profound words, he immediately became nervous. He didn't dare to make it clear to Ye Tian, because he knew what Ye Tian wanted to do at this moment.
However, Ye Tian wouldn't listen to this alchemist's excuse. He stepped forward and grabbed the alchemist's hands, preventing him from escaping.
"Kacha!"
Under the crowd's gaze, a crisp sound of an explosion could be heard. The faces of all the ministers turned pale, and they secretly thought about Ye Tian's ruthlessness.1
He had almost killed the emissary of Dongzhou with a single punch, and this action had crippled the arms of the alchemist of Dongzhou without any hesitation.
The bones of the arms of the alchemist of Dongzhou had also turned into powder under the vibration of Ye Tian's True Qi. Even a miracle doctor would not be able to completely repair them.
Other than the Earth Level Pill that could cure the alchemist's injuries, there was nothing else.
Even so, the body of an alchemist would still suffer from side effects. It was a huge problem for the alchemist to condense the Pill Fire with both hands.
To him, from the moment he became an alchemist, he would start concocting pills on his palm. If he lost both of his hands, the path of concocting pills would be completely wasted.
"Ye Tian, you are so cruel. It was just a small bet, but you actually took it so seriously. The one you crippled wasn't me, but my Dongzhou!"
The alchemist of Dongzhou's face turned pale. Looking at the lucky faces of the surrounding ministers and the silent Chu King, he felt depressed in his heart.
If he returned like this, once the Dongzhou Country King saw him, he would naturally slowly abandon him. After all, a useless person didn't need to be as respectful as before.
"Your Excellency has spoken too much. It's just a remote corner of Dongzhou. I really want to have some bad thoughts towards the people of Great Chu. There are millions of men in Great Chu waiting for their death!"
Before Ye Tian could say anything, Chu King immediately took over his words, which could be considered as indirectly protecting Ye Tian.
Due to the unknown of the vast ocean, the Chu Country did not want to do anything to the Dongzhou. However, if they really pissed off Wang Ting, they could even cross the mountain of blades.
The alchemist of Dongzhou naturally knew that Chu King wasn't joking, but it was impossible for him to do anything to Ye Tian now. Furthermore, Ye Tian was currently in the limelight. All of his attention was on this young man. Nothing dangerous would happen.
"Let's end today's sparring session. Great Master, please return to your post house to rest. This Emperor will personally host a banquet tonight. Firstly, I would like to thank Great Master for his gift, and secondly, I would like to see your country off!"
Chu King's tone was very calm and did not have any interest. He handed the Dragon Stallion in his hand to the old official beside him.
After all, with the Heaven Level Pill of the Golden Dragon Prominent Divine, how could Chu King have the mood to look at a tenth grade Earth Grade?
After that, Chu King waved his hand casually and ordered the alchemist to leave. Then, a guard appeared beside the alchemist and helped him out.
After the alchemist from Dongzhou left, Chu King immediately beamed with joy, which was completely different from his previous solemn expression.
"Golden Dragon Prominent Divine, Chu Qiang and the people's wealth, there will be no future!"
All the ministers hurriedly knelt down at this moment, and only Ye Tian stood there alone.
"Good, good, good, good. What a great eternity. Today, it was all thanks to Ye Tian. If it wasn't for this kid, I would only be able to watch the barbarians of Dongzhou show off in the Imperial Court!"
Chu King clapped his hands, giving Ye Tian a very high evaluation. Just this sentence alone was enough to raise Ye Tian's status in the Chu Country to a certain level.
Even without an official rank, with just this sentence from Chu King, Ye Tian would be able to do whatever he wanted outside the Imperial City.
"Your Majesty, you are flattering me. If it wasn't for the precious herbs in the medicine room, how could I have done it? I will give this Golden Dragon Prominent Divine Pill to the Imperial Family!"
Ye Tian waved his hand and became modest. He then handed over the golden pill, causing Chu King to squint his eyes!
