CHAPTER 36: CHAPTER 36: THE YE FAMILY’S RIGHTEOUSNESS

Inside the main hall.

The Grand Elder, Ye Wushan, first administered a Fifth Grade Healing Pill to Ling Qiushui, then continuously channeled spiritual power into her body to further heal her injuries.

Ye Wushan smiled slightly and said, "Your Master Uncle’s injuries are severe. The effects of a Fifth Grade Pill do not offer much help, so it will take some time. I will do my best."

"I can’t help with the depletion of Power of Origin and Essence Blood; she needs to recover from that herself."

"I understand." Gu Chenfeng clasped his hands in gratitude and said, "Thank you, Grand Elder."

Ye Wushan waved his hand and smiled, "It’s a small matter, no need for formalities. Having a master uncle of the Ancient Divine Sect recuperate with the Ye Family is our honor."

At this moment.

A little girl in white, graceful and full of life, skipped into the main hall.

The girl in white was Ye Family’s pride, Ye Lanxin.

Ye Lanxin went up to Ye Yunshan and curiously asked, "Grandfather, Elder, I heard someone got seriously injured, is that true?"

"Yes." Ye Yunshan nodded with a smile.

Looking at Gu Chenfeng, Ye Yunshan chuckled and said, "Young friend, this is my granddaughter, Ye Lanxin."

Gu Chenfeng nodded and smiled lightly, "It’s alright to call me Gu Chenfeng."

"Gu Chenfeng?" Ye Lanxin tilted her head and said, "What a peculiar name."

Ye Yunshan scolded softly, "Xin’Er, don’t be rude."

Ye Lanxin stuck out her little tongue.

After glancing at Ye Lanxin, Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, "She should be two years younger than me, has Fire Attribute Spiritual Power, at the Early Stage of Qi Refining, which would make her talented even in the Ancient Divine Sect."

"There’s a fluctuation of Soul Power within her, she must also be an Alchemist."

Gu Chenfeng’s guess was correct. Though Ye Lanxin was only fourteen, she was indeed an Alchemist.

At fourteen, she had broken through to the Early Stage of Qi Refining and advanced to a First Grade Alchemist, clearly highly gifted.

"Wow!" Ye Lanxin glanced at the heavily injured Ling Qiushui, her big, watery eyes widening in surprise, "Sister is so beautiful."

Ye Yunshan quickly whispered, "Xin’Er, lower your voice. The Grand Elder is healing her."

Ye Lanxin immediately covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly, looking very cute.

"Let’s go out first." Ye Yunshan said softly, "Young friend, don’t worry, leave this to the Grand Elder."

"Alright." Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly, not worried.

As long as Ling Qiushui’s life was preserved, Gu Chenfeng had ways to restore everything, though it would take time.

Outside the main hall.

Gu Chenfeng clasped his hands in thanks, "Thank you, Patriarch Ye and everyone for coming to the rescue; otherwise, my Master Uncle’s life could not be saved."

"It’s just a small effort, young friend, no need to be formal." Ye Yunshan laughed cheerfully, "Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, the Ye Family would not stand by and watch death occur."

The second elder, Ye Wuming, smiled calmly, "Everyone faces difficulties; although the Ye Family’s strength is ordinary, if we can help, we certainly will and won’t stand idly by. Your arrival at the Ye Family indicates fate."

Gu Chenfeng clasped his hands, saying, "The righteousness of the Ye Family, this kindness, Gu Chenfeng will remember it."

Ye Yunshan laughed happily, "Your Master Uncle’s injuries are serious; without three to five days, it will be difficult to recover. In the meantime, stay with the Ye Family, and feel free to ask if you need anything."

They didn’t know that because of today’s benevolent act, the Ye Family’s status in the Human Realm would soar, their strength would rapidly grow, establishing themselves as a powerful family.

"Thank you, Patriarch Ye." Gu Chenfeng thanked once more with folded hands, then asked, "By the way, Patriarch Ye, is there an herb shop in the city?"

Ye Lanxin asked in surprise, "Gu Chenfeng, is this your first visit to Divine Wind City?"

"Yes." Gu Chenfeng nodded.

"Though there are herb shops," Ye Yunshan frowned slightly, "the herb shops in Divine Wind City only sell ordinary herbs."

"I don’t know what herbs you need, but the Ye Family has quite a variety, brought in from elsewhere."

Gu Chenfeng said softly, "Patriarch Ye, I need herbs to refine a Sixth Grade Pill."

"Refining a Sixth Grade Pill?" Ye Yunshan and the others were immediately taken aback.

Ye Lanxin hurriedly asked, "Gu Chenfeng, are you a Sixth Grade Alchemist?"

"I’m not an Alchemist." Gu Chenfeng shook his head slightly, then smiled, "But my Master Uncle is a Sixth Grade Alchemist, once she recovers, she can refine a Sixth Grade Pill."

"I see." Ye Yunshan and the others nodded slightly.

Initially, they thought Gu Chenfeng wanted to refine a Sixth Grade Pill, which startled them.

Gu Chenfeng continued to smile, "Master Uncle Qiushui’s alchemy skills are formidable, refining a Sixth Grade Pill is not difficult."

Ling Qiushui, at such a young age, had entered the realm of a Sixth Grade Alchemist, proving to be an exceptionally talented alchemist with no ordinary skills.

"Is that beautiful sister a Sixth Grade Alchemist?" Ye Lanxin asked excitedly, her big, watery eyes sparkling with admiration.

"Of course." Gu Chenfeng nodded with a smile.

However.

Thinking about Ling Qiushui’s temperament, cold sweat broke out on Gu Chenfeng’s back.

When it comes to whether Ling Qiushui would teach or not, it’s not up to Gu Chenfeng.

"Wow! That’s wonderful!" Ye Lanxin said happily, "A Sixth Grade Alchemist must be really amazing. Once Big Sister recovers, I’ll ask her to teach me alchemy!"

"No problem." Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly.

"Unfortunately, the Ye Family doesn’t have the herbs to refine a Sixth Grade Pill." Ye Yunshan smiled bitterly, "The Grand Elder is merely a Fifth Grade Alchemist, the herbs for Sixth Grade pills aren’t used, plus Sixth Grade Pill herbs are very expensive."

The second elder, Ye Wuming, added, "I fear there are no herbs for refining a Sixth Grade Pill in Divine Wind City. If you want Sixth Grade herbs, the fastest is to go to the commerce guild."

"Master Uncle is already injured at the foundation, and time is of the essence. It looks like we must make a trip to the commerce guild," Gu Chenfeng said with a frown, although it was risky, to save Ling Qiushui, he could only take the risk.

"There is no hurry for this matter," Ye Yunshan said calmly, "The commerce guild’s auction just ended today; there will be many people staying at the guild. You just left the guild, it’s not advisable to risk going back."

"Rest well today, and it won’t be too late to go tomorrow. There is no rush over one day."

"Alright." Gu Chenfeng nodded.

Ye Yunshan looked at Ye Lanxin and smiled, "Xin’Er, lead Gu Chenfeng to rest."

"Okay, come with me." Ye Lanxin pulled Gu Chenfeng to leave.

While leading the way, Ye Lanxin asked curiously, "Gu Chenfeng, what’s your cultivation?"

Gu Chenfeng replied, "Late Stage of Foundation Establishment."

"Late Stage of Foundation Establishment?" Ye Lanxin was extremely surprised, then asked, "How old are you this year?"

Gu Chenfeng smiled and answered, "Sixteen, just had my coming-of-age ceremony not long ago."

"Then you’re two years older than me, I’ll call you Brother Feng."

"Alright."

"Brother Feng, which sect are you from?"

"Ancient Divine Sect."

"Is the Ancient Divine Sect powerful? Are there many people?"
