In comparison to Yu Xin, Ye Yuan still liked Yu Shu, this innocent and radiant little lass, more. With her accompanying along the way, it was pretty good too.
The three people passed through multiple regions along the way. Yu Xin brought to play a fair bit of effect.
She was very clear about the distribution of the topography and avoided those clans who were slightly stronger. This whole trip, they did not run into any danger.
Occasionally, there were some blind clans, that could not even withstand Ye Yuan’s true dragon oppression.
“En. Rushing on the journey these two days was tough. Let’s rest here for a bit then,” Ye Yuan said.
Along the way, Ye Yuan was not idle either. He could just make use of the journeying time to train. He had been cultivating the Wind-Thunder Extreme Light Shuttling Art constantly.
These ten over days, this martial technique was already cultivated to minor accomplishment realm!
If not for the sake of waiting for Yu Xin and Yu Shu, he would have reached long ago.
The three people directly took a rest by the roadside. Yu Xin said, “Ahead along this road, there’s still half a day’s journey, and we’ll be able to enter the Dongming Region’s boundary. The Azure Mountain Region is only a place which is next to the border. Dongming Region is the God Prohibited Demon Region true core region. The races here, regardless whether it is the numbers or individual strength, are on entirely different levels from the Azure Mountain Region. The Blackwind Demonic Wolf Clan, when placed here, are merely just among the below-average to average clans.”
Towards the might of this God Prohibited Demon Region, Ye Yuan had long gotten used to it.
Any single one of the clans that randomly walked out of here could sweep across a small world!
“En. When you send me to the Darkfiend Tiger’s domain, bring Yu Shu along and head back. At that time, I’ll naturally have compensation,” Ye Yuan said.
Hearing Ye Yuan say so, Yu Xin and Yu Shu both revealed expressions of reluctance.
But they also knew that this here was not their world. The Jade Faced Fairy Fox Clan was too weak and completely could not adapt to the law of the jungle here.
Ye Yuan making them go back was actually protecting them.
The three people rested for a bit, then set off for Dongming Region.
What surprised Ye Yuan was that once they entered Dongming Region’s boundary, they got surrounded by a group of burly men.
The strength of the dark-faced brawny man leading the group was not ordinary; he was at the peak initial-stage Tier 5 cultivation.
It was just that he indiscriminately said, “Heh heh, you spies. Want to secretly infiltrate my Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan? Dream on! Brothers, pummel them!”
Ye Yuan’s expression fell. This bunch of fellows said that they were spies without rhyme or reason. Truly courting death.
When a brawny man brandished a hammer that was just about to land on Ye Yuan’s head, Ye Yuan’s figure unexpectedly vanished!
“ARGH!!”
It was only to hear a miserable cry. The dark-faced brawny man leading was directly lifted up by Ye Yuan and slammed onto a large tree.
Peak initial-stage Tier 5 expert actually did not have the slightest leeway to resist under Ye Yuan’s might!
The Wind-Thunder Extreme Light Shuttling Art coupled with the Origin Magnetic Field, his strength mowed down all resistance!
Those big, stupid bears did not see clearly how Ye Yuan made a move at all.
“You, these fellows, are so unreasonable! We only want to borrow the path here. Provoked you and you want to viciously kill us?” Ye Yuan said with a cold snort.
That dark-faced burly man’s build was extremely large but was pinned onto the tree by Ye Yuan. No matter how he struggled, he could not shake free either. His face grew black and red.
“Cough . . . cough, cough . . . If you have . . . If you have the capabilities, kill me! Young Lord will definitely take revenge for me! You spies, want to infiltrate our territory to fish for information, no way!” The dark-faced burly man said chokingly.
Ye Yuan had a baffled look and said crossly, “We just want to go to the Darkfiend Tiger’s territory and need to pass through from your place here, that’s all. What spies and whatnots?”
The burly man was stunned too and said, “You guys . . . you guys aren’t here for the Firesource Crystal?”
Chapter 647. Easing up the Line to Reel in More Easily |
“Firesource Crystals?” Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed as he said.
“Ah! I . . . I didn’t say anything!”
The dark-faced burly man realized that his tongue slipped and hurriedly covered up his mouth.
Ye Yuan knew that this was a misunderstanding and naturally could not kill people randomly as well.
This dark-faced burly man was slow in the head. Although he transformed into human form, he was still a big, dumb bear.
Ye Yuan still had not figured out the situation yet, and this big, dumb bear let his tongue slip himself.
But the Firesource Crystals that this big dumb bear mentioned really moved Ye Yuan somewhat.
Firesource Crystal was a kind of ore crystal containing extremely rich firesource power. To fire-attribute martial artists, it was greatly beneficial to cultivation.
But what Ye Yuan minded was not this. His Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame had already reached the juncture of advancing ranks. This Firesource Crystal just happened to able to help the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame evolve.
Ye Yuan loosened his grip and said coolly, “I already said, we’re just passing through. If you still harass unreasonably, I won’t be courteous.”
He was easing up the line here to reel him in later. Although the big dumb bear was stupid, if Ye Yuan expressed interest in the Firesource Crystals, the big dumb bear would definitely be able to discern something.
So when he expressed no interest in the Firesource Crystals at all, this brawny man indeed fell for it.
That brawny man was very surprised when he saw Ye Yuan loosening his grip and said, “You guys . . . You guys really aren’t here for the Firesource Crystals?”
Ye Yuan frowned and said, “What Firesource Crystals and whatnot? How many times do you want me to say to you, we’re only passing through!”
When the brawny man saw that Ye Yuan was not interested in the Firesource Crystals at all, he also felt that he was too rash earlier and hurriedly apologized in embarrassment. He said, “Sorry about that, this little brother. It was I, Xiong Hui, who didn’t figure out the situation. Seriously sorry about it. Yii, no, wait, you’re a human!”
Only at this time, did this brawny man react to it, and his expression could not help changing as his expression darkened once more.
“Hump! Big Brother Ye Yuan possesses true dragon bloodline! Much nobler than you, this big dumb bear!” Yu Shu said indignantly.
The brawny man turned his head and looked at Ye Yuan suspiciously.
Ye Yuan gave a faint smile. The dragon pressure on his body emitted out was faintly discernible. The brawny man could not help being taken aback.
This dragon pressure was extremely orthodox and was no joke.
“So, it’s the dragon race’s successor. Xiong Hui was impolite,” Xiong Hui hastily said humbly.
“En, looking at your flustered manner, seems like you’ve run into some problems. Just a few pieces of Firesource Crystals. It’s not so serious until you guys have to kick up such a fuss, right? It’s also that you ran into me. If it were other people, they would have already killed all of you just now!” Ye Yuan said nonchalantly.
“This . . . ”
Xiong Hui revealed a hesitant look. Clearly, he was in a dilemma on whether to tell Ye Yuan or not.
Ye Yuan said indifferently when he saw the situation, “Since you have something awkward to disclose, it’s fine to not say either. We still have to hurry on our way. Let’s say our farewells here. Uh . . . but I have to remind you, although Firesource Crystals are greatly beneficial to your Firesource True Dipper Bear clan, the fire poison in the Firesource Crystals are exceedingly hard to remove. When using, be a little more careful. Yu Xin, Yu Shu, let’s go.”
This Firesource Crystal was indeed very rare. The fire-attribute was already very powerful. But those who knew that it contained fire poison within were not many.
Because when ordinary people absorbed Firesource Crystals, they could not possibly absorb in large quantities. Because they could not withstand the firesource power in the Firesource Crystals at all.
But the Firesource True Dipper Bears were different. They were innately a fire-attribute demon race and had a very strong affinity towards firesource power. The more Firesource Crystals they absorb, the better.
Yet, when absorbing the firesource power in the Firesource Crystals, one would not sense anything for a short while. But following the Firesource Crystals absorbed getting increasingly more, the accumulation of fire poison would get progressively deeper. By the time it was discovered, the poison would basically have attacked the vitals already.
Finished talking, Ye Yuan walked forward without even turning his head back.
Ye Yuan’s words directly breached Xiong Hui’s mental line of defense.
Ye Yuan had just walked out a couple of steps when Xiong Hui yelled out from behind, “Please wait, Little Brother!”
“En? Is there anything else? We still have to hurry along our way and don’t have time to waste on you all.” Ye Yuan pretended to be impatient and said.
Xiong Hui hurriedly said, “Little Brother has wide experience and extensive knowledge. To actually know the drawbacks of Firesource Crystals! It’s just, I wonder if Little Brother has ways to remove the poison?”
“So what if I do, so what if I don’t? Weren’t you not even willing to say anything earlier? As it happens, I’m not willing to listen as well. So don’t be long-winded.” Ye Yuan turned around once more and wanted to go.
Xiong Hui seeing Ye Yuan so steadfast felt even more certain. He hurriedly stopped him and said, “Little Brother, Xiong Hui has given offense just now! Given offense! I’ll tell Little Brother the matter exactly as it is. If Little Brother can provide a way to eradicate the poison, I believe that Young Lord and Clan Head will definitely be endlessly grateful!”
Actually, Ye Yuan already guessed some things long ago through Xiong Hui’s attitude.
This Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan definitely had somebody who refined and absorb Firesource Crystals without heed for their lives, resulting in poisoning themselves.
But the incident should not end here. Otherwise, this Xiong Hui also would not go so far as to get alarmed over nothing, killing on sight.
Only upon hearing Xiong Hui’s words did Ye Yuan finally know what happened to the Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan.
Turns out that some time ago, a Firesource Crystal ore vein was discovered within the Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan’s territory. This made the bear clan thrilled to death.
They mined a batch of Firesource Crystals, and the Clan Head, Xiong Zhan, started refining and absorbing them in a hurry.
This Xiong Zhan was peak initial-stage Tier 6. After absorbing this batch of Firesource Crystals, he would surely be able to break through to middle-stage Tier 6!
The allure of advancing ranks was seriously too great!
Of course, the reason why Xiong Zhan was in a hurry to increase his strength was actually in order to let the bear clan suppress the adjacent Purple Flood Dragon Clan.
Xiong Zhan was completely unaware that refining Firesource Crystals still had this sort of negative effect. The result was that he overreached himself. Now, not only was he unable to break through, he instead became tangled with fire poison and was completely unable to eradicate it,
Even though the bear clan locked down the news immediately, the Purple Flood Dragon Clan seemed to have perceived a little something. This period of time, they kept on testing the bear clan non-stop.
Xiong Zhan was in closed-seclusion right now. The Young Lord, Xiong Tie, could only order people to seal off all gateways to the territory to prevent the Purple Flood Dragons from doing anything fishy.
The result was this scene earlier happening.
Ye Yuan could not help finding it funny in his heart when he heard. He was even somewhat puzzled how these big dumb bears contended with the Purple Flood Dragon Clan until now.
Sending people to seal off all entrances and exits. Wasn’t this making it more conspicuous the more they tried to conceal it?
Even if the Purple Flood Dragon Clan did not know anything, they could also guess that something must have happened to the bear clan.
It would be weird if they did not plunder a burning house at this time!
Furthermore, Xiong Hui this kind of big dumb bear, Ye Yuan had not even asked anything yet, and he confessed himself. Ye Yuan really did not know what he should say.
“Little Brother, if you can help Clan head remove the fire poison, my Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan will definitely thank you generously!” Xiong Hui said.
Ye Yuan mused for a moment and opened his mouth, “No problem with letting me help your Clan Head remove the fire poison. But I have a condition!”
Xiong Hui said, “As long as you can let Clan Head recover anew, forget about one condition, even a hundred conditions won’t be an issue!”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, “En, actually this condition is also in line with saving your Clan Head. I want 50 pieces of Firesource Crystals!”
Chapter 648. Refining Firesource Crystals! |
“50 pieces?! Firesource Crystals?! Why don’t you go and rob us?!”
Xiong Hui jumped up immediately. This was simply demanding an exorbitant price. Could it be that this fellow did not know the preciousness of Firesource Crystals?
But with Ye Yuan opening his mouth here, Xiong Hui’s eyes became alert too.
Messing around for so long, this Ye Yuan was aiming for the Firesource Crystals still!
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said, “If I have Tier 5, or even Tier 6 strength right now, I would naturally have no need of Firesource Crystals. Forget it, forget it. Since you feel that I’m plotting for your Firesource Crystals, then just take it as I never said it. Let’s go.”
Xiong Hui was stupefied by Ye Yuan and could not differentiate the truth from the false at all.
Seeing that Ye Yuan was going to leave, he hurriedly stopped Ye Yuan. “Little Brother, don’t go! Dear me, Little Brother, don’t go! This matter, I can’t make the decision either. I need to have our Young Lord make the final call. How about . . . Little Brother take a trip back to the clan with me?”
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “Nah, nah. I’m rushing for the Darkfiend Tiger Clan’s territory for an urgent matter. Let’s say goodbye here!”
As he said, Ye Yuan really brought Yu Xin and Yu Shi and left without even turning his head back. No matter how Xiong Hui shouted, he no longer turned back either.
Xiong Hui watched Ye Yuan’s distant back view, gritted his teeth, and said to a subordinate, “You go and keep an eye on those three. Make sure not to lose them! I’ll report to Young Lord right away. If that little brother can really cure the poison, then he’ll be our Firesource True Dipper Bear Clan’s savior!”
. . . . . .
“Big Brother Ye Yuan, are we really leaving just like this?” Yu Shu asked curiously.
She could sense that Ye Yuan was definitely very interested in that Firesource Crystal. Otherwise, he would not have rambled so much with that big dumb bear either.
But she never expected that Ye Yuan actually really left. Wasn’t this going to pass by the Firesource Crystals by a narrow chance?
“You dumb lass. Mister Ye is easing up the line to reel in more easily later!” Yu Xin clearly thought deeper than Yu Shu and perceived it long ago.
Ye Yuan did not mind and said smilingly, “If I behave too zealously, those big dumb bears will feel that I have other motives instead. But if I behave like it was not worth a single glance, they would definitely feel that I really have the ability. Their clan head got inflicted with fire poison. If it isn’t removed, it will be like bone-infesting maggots, making his life worse than death. At that time, the bear clan will be in danger. Hence, they will definitely come and find me.”
Yu Shu opened her mouth wide and said with a worshiping look, “Big Brother Ye Yuan is incredible! To actually even deduce what those big dumb bears were thinking about!”
Ye Yuan could not help sweating profusely when he heard that. What was what?
If he could not even plot against these big dumb bears, then wouldn’t he be too dumb as well?
Moreover, this was not considered as scheming, right? Those Firesource Crystals were just the consultation fees for treating the ailment; each took what they needed.
It was just that those big dumb bears were too dense. Saying too directly with them, they would heighten vigilance instead.
The few people were just speaking when several figures blocked the path of the three people with a swoosh.
Out of Ye Yuan’s expectations, this Xiong Tie actually looked handsome with well-chiseled features, not at all fitting with his name.
“Little Brother, this is our family’s young lord,” by the side, Xiong Hui introduced.
Xiong Tie clasped his hands and said, “Brother Ye, Xiong Hui has offended greatly previously. I hope that Brother Ye can be magnanimous enough to forgive.”
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “Just a misunderstanding. No harm. The three of us still have to hurry on with our journey. We’ll have to trouble Young Lord Xiong Tie to make way.”
Xiong Tie hurriedly said, “May I ask Brother Ye if you can really treat Clan Head’s fire poison?”
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Heh, regardless whether I can treat it or not, does Young Lord Xiong Tie still have other alternatives? I still say that same sentence: Want me to take action, there must be 50 pieces of Firesource Crystals. It’s not that I’m asking for a preposterous price. But to want to remove fire poison, one must have Firesource Crystals. If you guys can’t part with it, then take it as I never said it.”
