Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Ye Wushuang stood quietly, unconcerned by the strange looks from the crowd of disciples.

The two women felt the prickle of everyone’s stares and finally let go of Ye Wushuang, wiping the corners of their eyes as they stepped out of his embrace.

Seeing this, Ye Wushuang gave a faint smile. He knew they were just embarrassed.

Elder Yunn and Elder Wuu descended from the sky and walked over to Ye Wushuang. They glanced at the two women, stroking their beards and smiling.

The two women retreated to Ye Wushuang’s side, their faces flushed red—it was hard to tell if it was from crying or shyness.

”Elder Yunn, Elder Wuu!”

Upon seeing the two old men, Ye Wushuang bowed deeply. It wasn’t just out of respect for their seniority, but out of sincere gratitude.

This was especially true for Elder Yunn, who had taken special care of him since his days in the Outer Sect and had helped him on numerous occasions. How could Ye Wushuang ever forget such kindness?

”Excellent, excellent. To kill a Spiritual Spring Realm expert the moment you returned... you truly haven’t disappointed this old man.”

Elder Yunn stroked his beard continuously, a wide smile on his face.

”I must thank you for your past care, Elders. I have no way to repay your kindness,” Ye Wushuang said with a smile. He then took out two Jade Boxes and offered them to Elder Yunn and Elder Wuu, saying, ”This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please, you must accept it.”

”What is this?”

Elder Yunn and Elder Wuu exchanged a glance and curiously took them.

As soon as they opened them, a rich medicinal aroma wafted out.

SNAP!

SNAP!

They snapped them shut almost instantly, looking up at Ye Wushuang in utter shock.

”Lad, I absolutely cannot accept this,” Elder Yunn finally said after a long pause, handing the Jade Box back.

Inside the Jade Box was no ordinary item, but a Pseudo Ancient Medicine King.

A Pseudo Ancient Medicine King, a type of Spirit Medicine second only to an Ancient Medicine King and countless times more precious than even a Top-Grade Treasure Medicine. For them, it was without a doubt a peerless treasure.

Though both had been elders for many years, to be honest, they had seen such things before but had never possessed one.

For Ye Wushuang to now give one to each of them... how could they not be astonished?

”Seniors, you’ve helped me so many times. Think of this as a token of my gratitude. Please don’t speak of its value, just accept it. Otherwise, my conscience won’t be clear,” Ye Wushuang said with a smile.

”Lad, the Barbarian God Battle Platform is about to begin. If you truly wish to thank us, then come back with a good placement. As for these two items, you should keep them to prepare.”

Elder Yunn and Elder Wuu refused. They knew that although Ye Wushuang’s strength was formidable, he had yet to break through to the Spiritual Spring Realm. There was still a gap between him and the strongest disciples that he urgently needed to close, so how could they accept the two items?

”I have plenty more of these on hand, it’s more than enough,” Ye Wushuang said, shaking his head with a smile. ’I even have Ancient Medicine Kings, let alone Pseudo Ancient Medicine Kings, all obtained from the black hall on the ninety-ninth floor of the Divine Communication Tower.’

”Plenty more?”

Elder Yunn and Elder Wuu were taken aback. They stared at Ye Wushuang, and seeing from his expression that he wasn’t lying, their surprise grew.

After hesitating for a long moment, they finally nodded. Without any further pretense, they immediately smiled and said, ”Alright, alright, alright. In that case, we’ll accept them.”

If they refined the Pseudo Ancient Medicine Kings, their power would absolutely rise to another level.

After accepting the Pseudo Ancient Medicine King, Elder Yunn said, ”With Anx Shijie now dead, the position of Elder for the Cyan Profound Peak Law Enforcement Hall is vacant. The Sect Master wants you to assume the role. What are your thoughts?”

”I will abide by the Sect Master’s arrangements.”

Ye Wushuang replied. ’Having an official position would make things easier, anyway.’

Elder Yunn said, ”In that case, pack your things and head to Cyan Profound Peak. If there’s anything you don’t understand, don’t hesitate to come find us.”

With that said, the two old men glanced at the Jade Boxes in their hands, clearly eager to get back.

Ye Wushuang smiled faintly. He understood their eagerness and didn’t stop them.

Once the two left, a group of other elders came forward to offer their congratulations. Ye Wushuang becoming an Inner Sect Law Enforcement Elder at such a young age was proof of how highly Nangong Liuyun regarded him.

These were all wily old men who had lived for many years. They were well aware of Ye Wushuang’s potential and all came forward to congratulate him, hoping to form a good relationship.

Ye Wushuang put on no airs, returning their pleasantries one by one.

After the group of elders departed, the other disciples also began to leave.

Then, Dii Qingxue, Qianling, Jian Bufan, and Qiu Mo walked over.

Qiu Mo went straight in for a bear hug.

Then, Yangg Qing’er asked, ”By the way, Brother Ye, how did you get out?”

Hearing Yangg Qing’er’s question, the others grew curious as well.

Ye Wushuang smiled. ”Actually, I got out right after you all left. I emerged just as the Earth Palace Gate was closing. I was about to chase after you, but you were already gone.”

Hearing Ye Wushuang’s explanation, they all understood what had happened.

In truth, if they had just waited a moment longer, they would have seen him.

However, with the Earth Palace Gate closing, the Celestial Abyss sinking, and Nangong Liuyun forcing everyone to leave quickly, they had missed each other.

Thinking of this, they couldn’t help but smile.

After a moment, Dii Qingxue said, ”I’m leaving. Come find me when you’re finished with your business. I have something to tell you.”

After speaking, she glanced at Yangg Qing’er and headed toward Fengtian Peak.

Seeing this, a trace of bitterness flashed in Yangg Qing’er’s lovely eyes, but she quickly concealed it. Then, her small hands boldly latched onto Ye Wushuang’s arm.

’Since Senior Sister Dii doesn’t seem to care anymore, I can be bold with my feelings for him, too.’

Naturally, this action drew the gazes of the others.

Qianling glanced over and said, ”I’m going to let my grandfather know I’m safe. Junior Brother Ye, come visit when you have time.”

”Alright.”

Ye Wushuang nodded. ’My Dragon Blood Battle Saber is almost destroyed. It’s time to ask the Craftsman Emperor to re-forge it.’

After Qianling left, Qiu Mo glanced at Jian Bufan and said, ”We should get going, too. Let’s not disturb their sweet nothings.”

With that, he dragged Jian Bufan away.

Ye Wushuang shook his head and smiled, glancing at the shy Yangg Qing’er and subconsciously rubbing his nose.

”Let’s head back first.”

Ye Wushuang called out, leading Ye Rou and Yangg Qing’er toward Broken Sword Peak.

They weren’t even halfway there when Xiong Jiu came rushing over, calling out, ”Junior Brother, please wait!”

”Senior Brother, what is it?”

Ye Wushuang stopped and looked at the approaching Xiong Jiu, seeing his hurried expression.

”The Star Elder needs to see you about something urgent.”

”Something urgent?” Ye Wushuang frowned. He turned to the two women and said, ”You two go on ahead. I’ll be back later.”

With that, he followed Xiong Jiu toward Fengtian Peak.

Heading up from the southwest side of Fengtian Peak and passing through a small grove, Ye Wushuang finally arrived at an idyllic little cottage.

Unlike his last visit, the Star Elder’s figure was nowhere to be seen in the fields.

”The Star Elder is inside the wooden cabin.”

Xiong Jiu pointed to a wooden cabin, then turned and left.

Ye Wushuang strode over. Just as he reached the door, the Star Elder’s voice rang out, ”Come in.”

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang pushed the door open and stepped inside. He saw the Star Elder sitting at a wooden table, his face utterly pale, with a sickly pallor.

Ye Wushuang’s brows furrowed instantly. ’My master is usually so full of vigor. Why is he like this?’
