Chapter 912: Chapter 902: Tang Yuyan Requests a Pill
"Let him in."
Gu Chenfeng spoke calmly.
Before long.
Dugu Cheng entered the grand main hall of the Star Ancient Sect.
This was Dugu Cheng’s first time entering; his expression was full of respect and extreme caution.
Dugu Cheng’s gaze was kept lowered the whole time; he didn’t dare look directly at Gu Chenfeng, his expression a mixture of fear and reverence.
Gu Chenfeng asked, "Dugu Cheng, have you found everything out?"
"Old Patriarch, this lowly one has already found everything out," Dugu Cheng said in a trembling voice.
Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly and said, "Speak."
Dugu Cheng swallowed and said cautiously, "Old Patriarch, Tang Yuyan came to the Divine Realm this time in order to go to the Proud Immortal Hall to seek a Seventh Grade Alchemist for a pill. She needs a Seventh Grade Pill to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm and take part in the Genius Battle three months from now."
"Seeking a Seventh Grade Pill?" Gu Chenfeng frowned slightly and said, "The status of a Seventh Grade Alchemist is transcendent; obtaining a Seventh Grade Pill is as hard as ascending to the heavens. Continue."
Dugu Cheng said respectfully again, "Old Patriarch, there are several powerful Alchemists in the Proud Immortal Hall, and the Young Master of the Proud Immortal Hall is also a Seventh Grade Alchemist. Tang Yuyan went there precisely to ask the Young Master of the Proud Immortal Hall to do Alchemy for her."
"But she was turned away at the gates by disciples of the Proud Immortal Hall. Their reason was that Tang Yuyan had no qualification to set foot in the Proud Immortal Hall, much less the qualification to meet the Young Master of the Proud Immortal Hall."
"There were quite a few people present at the time, all mocking that a mere young lady of the Tang Family actually had no self-awareness at all and dared seek an audience with the Young Master of the Proud Immortal Hall. Miss Tang Yuyan suffered every kind of humiliation."
"Seeing that she had no qualification to seek an audience, Tang Yuyan could only leave the Proud Immortal Hall and head for the Thunder Immortal Sect, but she was still turned away at the gate. They also said Tang Yuyan had no qualification to seek an audience. Yet Tang Yuyan did not give up; right now she is still at the Thunder Immortal Sect’s mountain gate, begging to meet the Thunder Immortal Sect’s Great Elder."
Gu Chenfeng’s face instantly turned incomparably icy, as if even the surrounding air was about to freeze solid.
Dugu Cheng felt Gu Chenfeng’s fury and shivered all over in fright; he lowered his head even further, not daring to look at Gu Chenfeng at all.
At the side, Zhu Qing asked respectfully, "Old Patriarch, do you know this Tang Yuyan?"
"Mm." Gu Chenfeng nodded and said, "Tang Yuyan has a kind heart. I’ve never met her before, but back in Immortal Cloud City she didn’t hesitate to offend the Young Master of the Lingxiao Immortal Hall to help me out of a tough spot."
"So that’s how it is." Zhu Qing, Mi Yuan and the others all nodded.
Gu Chenfeng stood up, looked at Dugu Cheng and said, "Come, you’re going with me to the Thunder Immortal Sect."
"Yes, Old Patriarch!" Dugu Cheng answered at once, following behind Gu Chenfeng.
Great Elder Mi Yuan also followed along in secret.
When Gu Chenfeng and Dugu Cheng arrived at the Thunder Immortal Sect, they indeed saw Tang Yuyan still bitterly begging for an audience in front of the Thunder Immortal Sect’s mountain gate.
"I beg the Thunder Immortal Sect’s Great Elder to lend a hand; this little woman is willing to pay any price." Tang Yuyan’s voice carried a trace of pleading.
"Little beauty, no matter how you beg it’s useless. You’d better give up."
"The Tang Family of Immortal Cloud City is nothing but ants in the eyes of the Thunder Immortal Sect. Don’t say you—even if the Tang Family’s Patriarch came, it would be useless."
"Exactly. This is the Divine Realm. Without strong power and status, you can forget about daydreaming."
The Thunder Immortal Sect disciples mocked her non-stop.
But Tang Yuyan still refused to give up.
Tang Yuyan knew very well in her heart that even if she went to other major powers, the outcome would be the same.
In order to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, Tang Yuyan had no other choice.
Though the Tang Family in Immortal Cloud City wasn’t weak, in the Divine Realm they were a second-rate clan at best.
The Tang Family had no powerful Alchemists, nor any powerful Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. To break through to Immortal Emperor, Tang Yuyan could only come to the Divine Realm to seek help from Alchemists of great powers.
Just then.
The Young Sect Leader of the Thunder Immortal Sect walked out, staring at Tang Yuyan with a lewd look, an evil grin on his face as he said, "Heh heh, little beauty, it’s not that this Young Sect Leader can’t help you. As long as you serve this Young Sect Leader for a month, I’ll have the Great Elder refine a Seventh Grade Pill for you to help you break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm."
In the instant she heard this.
Tang Yuyan’s face instantly turned pale. She bit her lip, forcefully suppressing her anger as she said politely, "Young Sect Leader, please conduct yourself with dignity."
"Conduct myself with dignity? Hahaha!" The Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader burst into wild laughter and said arrogantly, "In this Thunder Immortal Sect, what this Young Sect Leader says is the rule. You, a mere young lady of the Tang Family, dare to refuse this Young Sect Leader?"
"Miss Tang really doesn’t know how high the heavens are or how thick the earth is. Since you’re asking the Thunder Immortal Sect to help you with Alchemy, you naturally have to pay something."
"That’s right. It’s rare for our Young Master to take a fancy to you; hurry up and agree to the Young Sect Leader. Maybe you’ll still have a sliver of hope."
"Miss Tang just said herself that she’s willing to pay any price. Don’t worry, our Young Master knows very well how to cherish beauties."
The Thunder Immortal Sect disciples once again burst into mocking laughter.
Tang Yuyan’s eyes were full of tears of humiliation, but she still spoke firmly, "Young Sect Leader, please show mercy. This little woman only seeks a single Seventh Grade Pill; the medicinal herbs are already prepared."
"Hmph, toasting with water and refusing wine." The Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader’s face sank, and he roared viciously, "Men, drive her out for me. She wants a Seventh Grade Pill? She can keep dreaming."
"Scram, scram, scram! You’ve angered the Young Master; you’ll regret it." A disciple shouted impatiently at Tang Yuyan.
Tang Yuyan said anxiously, "This little woman only wants a single Seventh Grade Pill. As the Young Sect Leader of the Thunder Immortal Sect, why must you make things difficult for me?"
"Scram!" the Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader shouted angrily. "If you don’t scram right now, don’t blame this Young Master for being ruthless!"
A few disciples rubbed their hands together, grinning evilly as they said, "Little beauty, if you still don’t scram, we won’t be polite."
However.
Just then, Gu Chenfeng walked over.
"Whoever dares lay a hand on her dies." Gu Chenfeng’s voice rang out like thunder.
The few Thunder Immortal Sect disciples were all startled out of their wits.
The Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader frowned, turned to look at Gu Chenfeng, and asked coldly, "Brat, who are you? You’ve got guts."
Hearing that familiar voice, Tang Yuyan’s pretty face changed; she suddenly turned around to look.
"Gu Chenfeng?" Tang Yuyan cried out in shock, unable to believe that Gu Chenfeng would actually appear at the Thunder Immortal Sect.
Gu Chenfeng ignored the Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader. He hurriedly helped Tang Yuyan up and said with a faint smile, "Fairy, please rise. There’s no need to beg them."
Gu Chenfeng’s disregard immediately caused the Young Sect Leader of the Thunder Immortal Sect to burn with rage inside.
"Brat, you’re courting death?" the Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader said coldly, a chilling killing intent abruptly erupting and locking firmly onto Gu Chenfeng.
"You little bastard! How dare you ignore our Young Master! You’re asking for death!" A disciple flew into a rage, mobilized his Immortal Power, and smashed a punch toward Gu Chenfeng.
"Boom!"
"Pff!"
Gu Chenfeng’s fist shot out even faster. The overbearing force shook the disciple into vomiting blood, his body shooting out like a cannonball and slamming heavily into a stone pillar on the mountainside, where he passed out on the spot.
Seeing this.
The Thunder Immortal Sect’s Young Sect Leader flew into a fury and roared viciously, "Kill him for this Young Master!"
