Ye Chen's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Yi Boqi.
His appearance only deepened the smile on Xiao Boqi's lips.
Because Ye Chen's luck was churning even more violently.
Roll on.
Even more intense, the chosen one.
As soon as Yi Boqi finished speaking, the onlookers began to chime in.
"The young master has already paid with spirit crystals, so the spirit herb belongs to him. Are you trying to forcibly take it by clinging to it?"
"Hey, they said he's the personal disciple of the vice dean of Sky Academy. Even if we forcibly take him, who would dare to do anything to him?"
"Hmph, if such character were to spread to the Azure Sky Academy, do you think he would still retain the title of a personal disciple?"
"To tarnish the reputation of the Sky Academy and disregard the laws of the Great Sun, is truly the height of arrogance."
Ye Chen's eyes were bloodshot.
The onlookers' words of killing and destroying one's spirit were exactly the same as the provocative words he had spoken at the Marquis's residence that day.
In just two days, Xiao Boqi turned the tables on the royal family and the Sky Academy.
Moreover, he did it far better than I did, because he barely said a word from beginning to end.
Compared to his clearly provocative words, the difference is obvious.
He wasn't like Ye Boqi, who could easily produce Leng Qiuyue's servant contract and turn the matter of crippling Leng Qiuyue into the head of the family punishing a servant.
He even used his status as a second-class marquis to beat up the sixth prince, turning it into a form of unconventional admonition.
With a simple operation, the big label that was put on him vanished without a trace.
Although he desperately wanted to kill Ye Boqi on the spot, he dared not make the slightest move.
Because once he takes action, the crime that He Boqi has pinned on himself will be completely confirmed.
Given such a accusation of damaging the academy's reputation, he wasn't sure if Liu Qianshan would still stand against public opinion to protect him.
If he were to lose his status as the vice dean's personal disciple, his situation would be extremely dangerous.
However, he was extremely unwilling to hand over the Purple Soul Ginseng just like that.
"Chen'er, you should leave now."
"It's just a Purple Soul Ginseng; we can look for it again when we have the chance."
Just as Ye Chen was in a dilemma, Elder Ling's voice came from within his sea of consciousness.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Chen nodded slightly.
He then raised his hand, sending seven spiritual herbs flying towards Yi Boqi, before turning and leaving.
As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.
Fortune changes every thirty years; never underestimate a young person's potential.
But just as he was about to turn around, he heard Yi Boqi's calm voice.
"I have no use for this low-grade spiritual herb. Since you don't want it, I'll destroy it."
With a single swipe of his hand, seven spiritual herbs stopped in mid-air, and then he unleashed a punch.
With a soft "poof," the third-grade spiritual herb was blasted into powder.
Then another punch was thrown, and the powder of another spiritual herb fell to the ground.
Just as Ye Boqi was about to unleash his third punch.
"don't want..."
Ye Chen couldn't help but speak up, because what Huang Boqi wanted to destroy this time was the Purple Soul Ginseng.
But he regretted it as soon as he spoke.
Because the moment he spoke up to stop him, Huang Boqi smiled.
"Oh, so this is the one you really wanted."
He then examined it closely and raised an eyebrow slightly.
"It's actually the Purple Soul Ginseng, an eighth-tier treasure that nourishes the soul. No wonder you tried to force me to buy it."
Then he turned to look at Yisan.
"By order of the Marquis's residence, from this day forward, all merchants in the capital are prohibited from selling any spiritual medicines to Ye Chen. Anyone who disobeys this order will have their property confiscated and their entire family exterminated."
After saying that, he looked at Ye Chen and smiled slightly.
"There's no other way. You broke the rules by forcing people to buy and sell in the gambling area. In order to prevent more people from suffering losses, we have no choice but to resort to this tactic."
He then waved his hand, and the Purple Soul Ginseng slowly floated towards Ye Chen.
“But what I just said still stands. If you kneel down and beg me, I will consider bestowing this Purple Soul Ginseng upon you.”
"I can't help it, I'm too kind, I can't bear to see people suffer."
Ye Boqi's words caused Ye Chen's killing intent to surge once again.
His original intention was to leave the gambling world and go to the major merchants in the capital to exchange a simplified version of the Thunderous Heaven-Turning Fist Manual for something to nourish his soul.
The old man's soul was already extremely fragile, and if it was delayed any longer, he was very likely to fall into a deep sleep or dissipate.
Neither of them is acceptable to me.
But Boqi seemed to have seen through his thoughts and directly issued the Marquis's decree.
He blocked all his escape routes to obtaining the elixir.
That's really... damn it!
Seeing Ye Chen glaring angrily, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, a look of disappointment appeared on Xiao Boqi's face.
"Is saving face more important than everything else? That's truly selfish."
"If that's the case, then I'll destroy it."
After saying that, he threw a punch at the Purple Soul Ginseng floating in mid-air.
Ye Chen's expression changed drastically upon hearing Boqi's words.
Throughout my journey, my greatest reliance has been on Elder Ling.
It was Elder Ling who patiently taught him and even gave him the heaven-defying Nine Spirits Opening Heaven Technique.
Now, Elder Ling's soul body has become extremely weak, and he urgently needs the medicinal power of the Purple Soul Ginseng to nourish it.
Knowing all this, yet still choosing to turn away for the sake of saving face.
What is such behavior if not selfishness?
Thinking of this, Ye Chen's expression changed.
"slow!"
He then clenched his fists even tighter, his chest heaving as he faced Yi Boqi.
With a loud thud, he knelt down on both knees, sending dust flying everywhere.
Just as he knelt down, Ye Chen suddenly felt something disappear from his body.
