Chen Tianwen is humiliated by his fiancée, dragged a thousand miles behind a carriage, mocked by the entire city, and the Chen family loses all face.
While serving as a slave at the Divine Sw...
Yunxiao looked at his grandfather, and especially after hearing his grandfather's words, his face turned ashen. After a moment, he hysterically said:
"No, I don't agree! If I have to marry that beast, I'd rather die right now!"
The old man sighed and said:
"Yunxiao, don't be willful. With Grandpa here, you'll be fine."
At this moment, Chen Tianwen transmitted his voice to Yunxiao through the spatial artifact. Yunxiao's expression changed, and he spoke to the old man:
"Grandpa, do you really think the Zhou family was so kind as to send me these pills just to marry me?"
The old man was slightly taken aback; this was indeed not like the Zhou family's style.
Although the young master of the Zhou family had long coveted Yunxiao, the price of a sixth-grade immortal pill was not something the Zhou family, known for being stingy, would be willing to pay.
Seeing that his grandfather was interested, Yunxiao continued as Chen Tianwen had instructed, and said to his grandfather:
"Grandpa, if you channel your internal energy to strike one of your own Zhongchan acupoints, you'll understand!"
The old man frowned, but still did as he was told.
The old man's brows furrowed more and more, because he discovered that there was a black mist swirling around his Zhongchan acupoint, blocking the flow of his immortal energy. After several attempts, the old man finally unleashed his full power, trying to break through the black mist.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted from the old man's mouth, and his expression changed drastically.
"Zhou family, you have some truly impressive methods!"
The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a fierce but weak voice.
Yun Tian asked worriedly:
"Father, what happened?"
The old man shook his head and said:
"There was something wrong with the elixir just now. The Zhou family left a hidden trap inside me!"
As the head of the Yun family, Yun Tian was naturally perceptive, and upon hearing his father's words, he instantly understood.
"Yunxiao, how did you know there was something wrong with this elixir?"
The old man asked Yunxiao, "My granddaughter has always been completely ignorant about elixirs, so how could she possibly see through my current problem? There must be a master guiding her behind the scenes!"
Seeing that his grandfather was indeed as Chen Tianwen had said, Yunxiao felt hopeful again and said to his grandfather:
"Grandpa, the reason I came back this time is because I found a Pill Emperor in the Xuanxian Realm."
"The Pill Emperor? Impossible. How could such a person appear in such a barren place as the Xuanxian Realm?"
Yun Tian exclaimed in surprise. Tianxiang Pavilion was located in the Xuanxian Realm, so Yun Tian naturally knew about the situation there. He had sent Yun Xiao to the Xuanxian Realm only to avoid Zhou Tong's forced marriage.
The old man waved his hand and said:
"Don't underestimate the Xuanxian Realm. Most of the great figures of the past came from the Xuanxian Realm. It is a place with great fortune, so it is not surprising that it produces any kind of great figures."
Yunxiao nodded and said:
"Grandpa was right."
The old man smiled and said:
"Where is that Pill Emperor now?"
Yunxiao felt a little smug and said to his grandfather:
"That Pill Emperor has returned to the Burial Heaven Realm with me. He's currently inside my spatial immortal artifact!"
"What? How dare you be so disrespectful to Lord Danhuang? Quickly, bring him out!"
This time it was the old man's turn to be surprised. If the Pill Emperor really came here and Yunxiao put him in a spatial immortal artifact, that would be a great disrespect!
Yunxiao smiled, summoned Chen Tianwen from the spatial artifact, and said with a hint of smugness:
"Grandpa, don't worry. We're on very good terms."
These words nearly made Chen Tianwen, who had just appeared, stumble. How could someone say in front of his father and grandfather that he had a good relationship with a man?
Perhaps only a mischievous little girl like Yunxiao would speak so freely.
However, neither the old man nor Yun Tian were ordinary people, so they didn't pay much attention to those words. Instead, they couldn't help but look Chen Tianwen up and down.
"So young, so incredibly young!"
"So cool, so incredibly cool!"
The old man and Yun Tian each had different thoughts in their minds.
Yun Tian felt that Chen Tianwen was too young and didn't quite believe that he was a Pill Emperor.
The old man, however, felt that Chen Tianwen seemed to be a good match for his granddaughter.
In fact, the old man already believed that there was a master of alchemy by Yunxiao's side when Yunxiao was able to readily describe his physical problems.
Although the old man was somewhat surprised by Chen Tianwen's youth, he was convinced that Chen Tianwen must be a Pill Emperor.
"Your Majesty, Yuntong Mountain is in the right."
The old man stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Tianwen.
Chen Tianwen quickly returned the greeting and said:
"Senior, there's no need for such formalities. Just call me Chen Tianwen."
Yun Tongshan was very satisfied with Chen Tianwen, not only because he was young and promising, but also because he was not arrogant because of his status. So he said:
"Mr. Chen has noticed the problem with my body. Do you know if there is a solution?"
Chen Tianwen nodded and said:
"The one who refined that elixir must also be a Pill King, otherwise it would be impossible for him to tamper with a sixth-grade elixir."
Chen Tian's question startled Yun Tian and Yun Xiao, who quickly asked:
"So what do we do now?"
Yun Tongshan waved his hand, signaling the two to calm down, then bowed to Chen Tianwen again and said:
"We beg Mr. Chen to take action!"
Chen Tianwen smiled. He was afraid that the other party would not believe him because of his youth, and that even if he was very capable, he would not be able to save the other party.
But judging from Yun Tongshan's current demeanor, he seems to have complete faith in himself.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianwen spoke up:
"Curing him isn't difficult. But have you thought about how to deal with the aftermath, senior?"
Yun Tongshan was slightly taken aback. Yes, the Zhou family must have had a backup plan after spending such a huge amount of money. So he asked Chen Tian:
"Mr. Chen, how does the Yun family think we should respond?"
Chen Tianwen looked at Yunxiao and said:
"Act as if nothing is happening, and wait for the Zhou family to slip up!"
Yun Tongshan nodded in deep agreement and said to Chen Tianwen:
"Mr. Chen is truly a man of great talent!"
Yunxiao was confused, but she understood that her grandfather should be alright.
However, what Yun Tongshan said next startled Yunxiao and Chen Tianwen.
Yun Tongshan bowed to Chen Tianwen and said:
"Mr. Chen's kindness is beyond repayment by the Yun family. If Mr. Chen does not mind, the Yun family is willing to betroth Yunxiao to you!"
"What are you saying, Grandpa?"
Yunxiao's face flushed, but she felt a little happy inside.
Chen Tianwen quickly spoke up:
"To be honest, senior, I already have a Daoist partner and would not dare to delay Miss Yunxiao."
Yunxiao stamped his foot and said to Chen Tian:
"Chen Tianwen, what do you mean? Do you think I'd like to marry you?"
After saying that, Yunxiao stormed out of the room in a huff!
