Chapter 1108: Two Ladies Met
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
[Our little brother disciple actually has such a good fortune. He is indeed blessed.]
[God bless Cold Moon Palace! We have such a peerless genius!]
"I guess it could be… That Dan God might have set up some kind of array… Once his inheritance was taken by somebody, the mountains would collapse and become his tomb. Many powerful figures in the history did the same thing. It isn't anything mysterious…"
Zhu Jiutian was making a conjecture. As he was talking, he talked more and more confidently. He believed it in the end.
"Oh…" Ye Xiao shook the head. "I truly don't want any of his inheritance. It is not as systematic as what I learned from my sect."
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were wordless again. [You don't want it? Do you know how many people are crying and yearning for that inheritance?]
Zhan Yunfei suddenly thought of something. He said, "Urh, little brother disciple, how… how many dan beads did you get from that place?"
Ye Xiao blinked and said, "Not many… Three hundred or four hundred… Not more than six hundred. Hmm. That's it. I didn't count, but it should roughly be that number. All the dan beads are just like those I gave my people today. Low-ranged. Not a big deal."
"That is a lot…" Zhan and Zhu nodded with lights of greediness in their eyes. [There must be a lot left.] Although Ye Xiao had given a lot to Ye Clan people, those were less than two hundred. Zhan and Zhu had been counting.
[That means he still has about four hundred!]
So they asked, "Does it mean… you still have plenty of the dan beads?"
"Not anymore." Ye Xiao spoke honestly, "After I got the dan beads, I have been eating them… I eat when I am hungry. I eat when I am thirsty. I eat when I am sleepy… Those are low-class dan beads, but with good effects. It always spirited me up… I have eaten about one hundred… Trust me! I have boosted in cultivation on the road. I have reached level nine of Dream Origin Stage now. It is just a step to Dao Origin Stage… I guess the dan beads did help…"
Ye Xiao amusedly said, "Not bad, right? My improvement?"
Zhan and Zhu were stunned. They stared at Ye Xiao and didn't say a word for a long time.
[Not bad?]
[That is brilliant!]
After a while, Zhan Yunfei, who was stunned and stiff, had his head fall down on the table and it bounced. And then he shouted in a sad voice, "Did you say… you have eaten a hundred of those dan beads… just to feed your stomach?"
"Yes, I did. What? Just some normal dan beads. Not a big deal." Ye Xiao showed an innocent face.
"Not a big deal? Holy hell! I wish those dan beads… rupture your stomach! You prick!" Zhan Yunfei fiercely said.
He was venting the grudge in his chest out when he said the word 'prick'!
[I haven't seen such high-level valuable dan beads in my life! He actually ate them like they were some sweet beans…]
[Are you addicted?]
[That can't be more wasteful!]
[You don't just take being extravagant as being pure!]
[I don't feel like being alive anymore…]
[Holy heavens! Please strike a bolt of lightning and kill this motherf*cker!]
[I wish I haven't heard what he just said…]
[That was disgusting! Gross! That hurts!]
"Even though you have eaten over a hundred, there should still be more…" Zhu Jiutian asked.
"I met a friend on my way, so I gave him over a dozen. I am close-fisted sometimes. This is embarrassing. I am ashamed…" Ye Xiao awkwardly said.
"What? A dozen? Don't feel embarrassed now. Tell us his name. Who is he? What is his name?" Zhu and Zhan looked at him with glaring eyes.
"I don't know his name… I just recognized his face. I don't know. I just felt that he is a nice guy… We parted outside the Oracle District. I shouldn't have just given him a dozen. I should give him at least one hundred, even not half of what I have. Yet I actually just gave him over a dozen. That was embarrassing. My masters will scold me for that…" Ye Xiao looked embarrassed.
- Pang! -
- Pang! -
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian both got their heads hit on the table, and two heads bounced on the table. They felt so deadly upset…
[Please, I am begging you, little brother disciple… Those were all valuable treasures… You don't even know that guy's name, yet you gave him over a dozen…]
[Now you are telling me that was close-fisted?]
[You actually… Actually… Actually…]
[We can't hear more of it. You will strike us to death!]
"When I got home, I realized my grandmother was sick. I had some proper dan beads that seemed to be useful for them. I used over a dozen on her. My grandfather was better. But I couldn't just give my grandmother something without giving my grandfather anything. I have to make it even…" Ye Xiao continued.
Zhan Yunfei was numb.
He was totally shocked.
He didn't know what to say anymore.
"Brothers, why happened? I truly don't think those are valuable things. We make dan beads for people to eat them, right? We have a dan-maker who produces dan beads for our disciples. I know we have a full storehouse of dan beads. You know I do, don't you? Masters showed me the storehouse!" Ye Xiao said.
"Gosh…" Zhan Yunfei was in despair.
He honestly felt too weak to speak anymore.
[What to say?]
[What can I say?]
[It is a full storehouse of dan beads… But those dan beads… Those dan beads in total worth less than one dan bead of yours!]
[No, not just Cold Moon Palace. All the sects in Qing-Yun Realm do not have any dan beads like yours!]
[That man called himself Dan God, then he must be a dan god!]
Zhan and Zhu felt angry but upset at the same time. However, they had nobody to talk to. The blood rose up to the chest and then fell down, then rose and fell again. They could spit out a mouthful of blood by just opening their mouths.
"Brothers, are you top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators also interested in these normal dan beads? I still have some with me…"
Ye Xiao waved his hand and over a dozen bottles appeared on the table. "These are all… Not any precious things. If you really like them, brothers, just take them! You could just tell me earlier. Why didn't you? You never told me, but just kept saying how valuable these dan beads were. It only made you look like some ignorant fools. We are brothers, so I am just being frank. Look, you are both influential cultivators. Why are you so small-minded?"
The two men were totally shocked!
They were wordless!
However, they directly ignored Ye Xiao's words!
What they did was to stare at those bottles!
[What did he say? He said… he was giving all these dan beads to us?]
[Holy heavens! Is that real?]
[No way!]
[Really?]
[He was not joking… He wasn't! He meant it…]
Those were at least a hundred dan beads. According to what Ye Xiao said to them, those were probably all that he had left.
That was obvious.
Ye Xiao just took them all out before counting.
That meant those were all he had left.
[These magical dan beads… There are over a hundred of them… What an enormous number!]
[They are all… ours?]
[I didn't dare to even think about it!]
However, after they took a second thought about how Ye Xiao wasted about five hundred of the dan beads, they still felt their hearts were twisting and hurting…
[That is so painful…]
They were having the exact same thought.
Especially when they opened the bottles… and saw those round little dan beads with rolling dan qi, and the qi in the air was moving to the dan beads… They felt more freaked out.
[Holy heavens. These… These are the legendary supreme dan beads… Only the dan beads with dan cloud could automatically absorb spiritual qi to keep their efficacy from running away…]
"Hundreds of these… legendary Supreme Dan…" Zhu Jiutian nearly shed tears. "They were just gone… That can't be more extravagant…"
"We are brothers. If you like them, just take them." Ye Xiao waved a hand, acting generously. "These normal dan beads, I assume we don't have many in our sect's storehouse! Right?"
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were numb.
[Of course, we don't have many of these dan beads. In fact, our 'not many' is quite different from your 'not many'. Two completely different reasons!]
[It is not just 'not many', but 'none'!]
[How… How can you be so stupid?]
They believed if they took the dan beads back to the sect when Ye Xiao returned to Cold Moon Palace, somebody would cry with tears!
Ye Xiao might not cry, but Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian definitely would!
The three elders would definitely punch the sh*t out of these two. [How dare you con your little brother disciples for his dan beads!]
[We can't believe you did this!]
[Aren't you ashamed?]
They were so upset at the moment.
[Should we turn it down? Those supreme dan beads?]
"Little brother disciple, listen to me, the dan beads you have, don't tell anybody else about it. Don't ever…" Zhan Yunfei was earnest. "Never ever… Brother, listen! This is huge! This is a big deal!"
"Urh… Why are you nagging like the elders? These are just normal dan beads… Do you really have to…" Ye Xiao murmured disdainfully.
"These dan beads… We can't take them…" They pushed the bottles back to Ye Xiao like they were slowly cutting their own skins again and again.
It was like a bloody deep wound on them.
"What is this? Are you looking down upon me?" Ye Xiao frowned. "Just take them… Do you really need to do this? They are merely some dan beads! We are brothers. What could be wrong about you two taking some dan beads from me? Look at you. You obviously want them, but you just pretend you don't! I just don't like it."
Then he separated the dan beads into three. He took one and gave the other two to Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian.
They would never take them all.
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian blushed. They were rubbing hands. They genuinely wanted to take them, but they felt embarrassed to do so. Ye Xiao pushed the bottles into their arms, and that was the end of the embarrassment…
Zhan Yunfei grinned and said, "Brother, I guess I should be honest with you. The dan beads of yours are not in high-class, but they are all in supreme level. They are exactly Supreme Dan! Not just normal dan beads… They are more precious than all the dan beads of our sect in total. Cold Moon Palace has never gotten even one supreme dan bead in thirty thousand years… Do you… Do you understand what I am trying to tell you?"
Zhan Yunfei couldn't just take the dan beads when his little brother disciple didn't know the value of them.
He decided to tell Ye Xiao the truth.

Zhu Jiutian nodded to agree.
They were indeed good friends and excellent partners! They did things in the same pattern!
Ye Xiao's eyes lit up. He felt warm in the heart.
[These two men… who used to be my enemies, are now my brothers in the sect.]
[They are actually… nice men.]
[They actually can do things beyond the ethical bottom line as men.]
[They are genuinely nice to me!]
He was having contradictory feelings at the moment. [If someday I take revenge of myself against the three factions, these two fellows will definitely stand opposite to me. What should I do then?]
"Brothers, I don't think you have listened carefully, do you? I learned my skills of dan-making in a brilliant dan-making sect. Of course, I know the dan beads of the sect are all worse to mine. I also know what Supreme Dan is."
He was having complicated feelings in the heart but didn't show it in the face. He just said in a low voice, "So what? They are supreme dan beads. They are still dan beads to be eaten! Using the right dan beads on the right person is a good choice. What is the point to keep all the dan beads to myself?"
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were astonished and nodded.
They knew Ye Xiao was saying a simple truth. However, would they be so generous and give the dan beads to others as Ye Xiao did?
They kept questioning themselves in the hearts and felt more and more compunctious.
[I will protect this young brother till the end of my life!]
"Besides, think about why I decided to give you the dan beads. You two are still wounded. You need the dan beads to heal yourselves. Just let the dan beads do their jobs first, will you?" Ye Xiao sighed.
Ye Xiao felt like everything was destined all of a sudden.
Weren't they exactly wounded by him?
However, he was giving them the dan beads to cure themselves.
The whole thing went back to the starting point.
Yet it had been a long time like the world was all changed, and the seas all had become lands.
The next day, Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian walked out of their rooms in laughter. They looked spirited up. The wounds that had stayed inside them were all cured in one night. With the help of those dan beads, they even improved a lot in cultivation!
Within those days, all the people in Oracle District noticed one thing. The atmosphere of spiritual qi in Oracle District had changed. It became normal.
It was no longer too energetic to capture and absorb.
In fact, it all started when Ye Xiao obtained the Mountain of All Medicines. When he got the mountain, the spiritual qi in this district gradually stopped being too energetic!
Otherwise, when Ye Xiao trained the young generation of Ye Clan, the spiritual qi wouldn't automatically go into the several young men!
When people all confirmed the truth, everybody in Oracle District was crazy about it.
After such a long time, the restraint in this area was gone!
It was a day when all the cultivators broke through to a new level together. Almost every cultivator had reached higher levels.
They used to be limited by the strange atmosphere in this place. Now it was normal. They naturally got boosted!
"We Oracle District finally got an opportunity to have some really powerful cultivators in the world!"
The news spread to every corner of Qing-Yun Realm.
All the influential forces started to send their men to Oracle District all of a sudden.
This almost wasteland suddenly became a honeypot!
Everybody realized one thing. Since the nature restraint was removed in Oracle District, the constraint that had been suppressing the people in the area would definitely become incredibly propulsion!
Even those who were not so talented would be improved by the reverse boost!
The entire Qing-Yun Realm was in an uproar.
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian got a particular advantage of it because they were precisely in this area. They recruited many disciples in Ye Clan, and they were going to take them back to Cold Moon Palace and mainly train them.
Misty Cloud Palace recruited many disciples from the young girls of Ye Clan.
To return the favor, when Ye Xiao saw Li Yunxuan, he directly gave her nine plants of Regeneration Jade Lotus that were all in high quality. Those were all wonderful lotuses that were about to upgrade!
When he took out the Regeneration Jade Lotus, Fairy Li, Li Yunxuan, nearly dropped her eyes on the floor. She almost exclaimed loudly because of the surprise.
She couldn't have even dreamt about such a pleasure!
The first thing she did was to send a message back to the sect for some more people. She notably required people above level seven of Dao Origin Stage, as they were needed to protect the lotuses!
At the same time, they would bring the young girls they just recruited…
What a huge surprise!
When Xuan Bing asked her to protect Ye Clan and fully support Ye Xiao, she didn't think much about it. She couldn't think of one possible reason why Xuan Bing would do it. She was merely following Xuan Bing's instruction!
After all, nobody needed a reason to obey great ElderXuan Bing!
However, now she changed her mind.
[Elder Xuan Bing always has foresight! If we didn't fully support Ye Clan, we would never be lucky enough to have these lotuses.]
Now, even if she had to sacrifice herself to protect Ye Clan, she would be willing to die ten thousand times to keep all harms away from Ye Clan people!
The young Lord Ye had told her… that there were still lots of Regeneration Jade Lotus in the Mountain of All Medicines… Nobody else could find them…
Li Yunxuan believed it. She didn't want to doubt it either. An exchange of profits certainly enhanced the excellent relationship between the two forces. If only one side was making the contribution, the relationship wouldn't last long. Besides, the layers above the third layer was a place in Mountain of All Medicines that only Wu Fa and Xuan Big had been. It was a place full of danger and terror. Ye Xiao could get into it and bring good stuff out. It meant he was a capable man!
Just according to that, the young Lord Ye was a hidden treasure!
The next few days, he was practicing martial arts with Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian!
Under their watch, Ye Xiao broke through the limit and became level one of Dao Origin Stage. It was not the end yet! He reached the top of level one of Dao Origin Stage in just three days!
That meant he could reach level two after a little hard work in the coming few days!
If he only got significant improvement in cultivation level, it would be a surprise but not an astonishing one. What impressed them most was that… in the one-on-one combat, when Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian didn't operate their most powerful technique, Ye Xiao could actually hold on in the fight for a certain while!
He was limpingly defending in the combat though. However, he still survived the attacks of the top level Dao Origin Stage cultivators!
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian both stayed shocked during the days.
[Holy hell… That is sick… How could he possibly improve so fast… I have… never seen anybody like this.]
…
Meanwhile, from somewhere far from them, a beautiful woman was moving toward Oracle District like lightning among the clouds in the sky.
She was like a cloud of sweet-scented wind, quietly moving over thousands of mountains and rivers.
Technically, she wasn't moving really fast.
She was quite casual.
What she was going to do was to finish something she promised.
It was reasonable that she would go in a leisure way. She could at least deal with the wounds she had gotten during the previous days. That could help her recover her spiritual qi after all.
In fact, what she was going to do wasn't that important to her. In fact, it was just to fulfill a mother's wish…
Besides, she and Xiao Monarch had started this at the very beginning, although it was just a small favor.
Jun Yinglian wouldn't have thought that what happened next would ultimately change her life!
When she got over a huge mountain that was covered y clouds and mist, she lowered down to check it. Usually, such a mountain would contain some treasures.
She was not in a hurry after all. It wouldn't take long to do some searching. She was using up all the resources she had during the fights in the previous days. It would be great if she could collect some more.
When she was thinking about it and ready to get down, she saw a mass of dark mist below her rushing up to the sky!
It had a strong aura of a king descending, truly domineering!
The dark fog spread away and then instantly became a full area of dark clouds. It suddenly blocked Jun Yinglian's way!
She was stunned.
[It must be a superior cultivator!]
[It must be such a dominant figure than I can never be a match to!]
[Who is it?]
She came up with a name quickly.
The person she was thinking of fit the aura, cultivation, and posture of the person she was watching now!
However, it was unbelievable that she would meet that person.
[She shouldn't be here. After all, this is not a place under Misty Cloud Palace's control. It is impossible that she would come to this place.]
[According to what people said in the martial world, she had a deal with another super influential figure to have a fight somewhere. They should still be fighting each other at the moment. People like them are not going to finish a battle in a short time. How could she be here?]
[This is insane!]
Jun Yinglian didn't panic. As she shook, a layer of frosty cloud around her spread out and became raindrops.
It fell to the earth!
She coldly stared at the dark cloud and blandly said, "Dark clouds cover the sky; the king descends to the realm! Is that great Elder Xuan of Misty Cloud Palace?"
The dark cloud rolled up and down and then separated into two sides.
A lady slowly showed up.
It was Xuan Bing indeed!
Jun Yinglian blinked when she confirmed Xuan Bing's identity. She was confused.
It was said Xuan Bing always wore black.
In fact, it seemed nobody in Qing-Yun Realm had ever seen Elder Xuan Bing's face. She never exposed her face to anybody.
[What is going on?]
[What is this?]
[The dark clouds are gone. The dark mist is gone. She showed herself to me. She doesn't have the mask on the face anymore!]
[She just showed herself to me!]
[That…]
Jun Yinglian only felt confused and lost in the head. [Why is she doing this?]
