Chapter 2186: Chapter 2012: Red-Hot! (Fourth Update)

Ye Chen watched all this coldly.

“Supreme Elder Yun!” Elder Cang Yun looked at Zhou Yun, hoping to plead for leniency. Although the mistake was with Zhou Tianyu, Zhou Tianyu was still one of the few young Heavenly Prides of the current generation of the Cosmic Sky Clan, destined to be a pillar of the clan’s future. How could his cultivation be abolished?

Zhou Yun sighed lightly and said to Ye Chen and another, “Mr. Qian, Long, please, for my sake, spare him this time. Do not abolish his cultivation; I will ensure he receives other severe punishments as a warning.”

Zhou Yun personally spoke, and Ye Chen, having some goodwill towards him, nodded to the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor, signaling to stop.

The Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor snorted coldly, “Since Little Moon agrees, this time I won’t abolish your cultivation, but I hope the Cosmic Sky Clan does not let him off easily.”

“Naturally, please rest assured, both sirs.”

Cang Yun also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned to the equally relieved Zhou Tianyu, “Why are you still standing there? Get out of the Cosmic Sky Palace immediately and return to the Sin Valley for fifty years of reflection.”

Sin Valley!?

Zhou Tianyu’s expression changed slightly. That was the place where some family members of significant misdeeds were confined within the clan, and no clan member ever wanted to enter Sin Valley.

But he understood this was the best outcome, otherwise, if his cultivation were abolished, he would be a mere mortal for life, and how could he aspire to high positions?

“Yes!”

Zhou Tianyu moved his lips but eventually complied, being taken away by the members of the Cosmic Sky Clan from the Cosmic Sky Palace.

The farce finally came to an end, but it was precisely because of this event that Ye Chen, who initially sat quietly on the edge of the banquet, savoring fine wine and dishes in an extremely low-key manner, suddenly became the focus of attention for most people.

Earlier, many were curious why the Six Great Royal Families’ Supreme talents risked opposing the Cosmic Sky Clan to defend Ye Chen at all costs, and now they finally understood.

An Alchemy Master, such an extraordinary figure, no one would want to easily offend, all hoping to foster a good relationship, which would be beneficial for both oneself and one’s entire faction.

Most of the Six Great Royal Families’ Supreme talents likely hoped to gain Ye Chen’s favor and become friends.

However, they didn’t understand that the Six Great Royal Families’ Supreme talents were Ye Chen’s followers and naturally had to step forward.

The emergence of an Alchemy Master immediately became the focus of the entire Cosmic Sky Festival. Although many were still exchanging toasts with others, most people were absent-mindedly paying attention.

Many naturally hoped to establish a connection with the young master Ye Chen, which would bring numerous benefits.

Many also recalled that just a few days ago, someone had been practicing alchemy in a high-class mansion under the Cosmic Sky Clan, the Pill Light shocking the entire city, accompanied by Pill Thunder that even Great Powers feared immensely.

At that time, they thought it was some renowned Alchemy Master producing an Eighth-Order Treasure Pill in Cosmic Sky City, but now seeing Ye Chen’s appearance and Zhou Yun’s tone, it was likely him.

In no time, prominent figures from many major forces gathered around, proactively trying to befriend Ye Chen, just to get familiar with him.

“Master Qian, we didn’t expect you to be so young, already an Alchemy Master of this generation, truly a hero emerging from youth!”

“Indeed, heroes have always emerged from youth. Masters like you, young as you are, are a rarity in the world, and future prospects reaching the realm of a Grandmaster, and maybe even the legendary Pill God Realm, are possible.”

“Compared to Master Qian, the talented elites of our major forces are just ordinary people.”

To form a connection with such an Alchemy Master like Ye Chen, many prominent figures from major forces actively engaged in conversation, their words filled with goodwill, even slightly sycophantic in tone, yet none of them felt embarrassed; instead, they found it entirely justified.

As one of them said, compared to an Alchemy Master like Ye Chen, the talented elites of their major forces are just ordinary people and can’t be compared at all.

Because Ye Chen was too impressive, having set foot in the domain of Alchemy Masters at such a young age, it’s hard to imagine with such growth that in the future, he might not be able to step into the domain of a Level 10 Alchemy God, becoming a Pill God renowned throughout history.

Reaching that level, let alone a mere Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, even in the vast and boundless Chaos Sea, he’d be a towering figure at the pinnacle of the pyramid.

Naturally, figures from the Emperor Clan and Immortal Clan also paid attention, curious about this so-called Master Qian’s true background, for they had never heard of the name Qian.

Moreover, such a young Alchemy Master is considered extremely rare, even in the Pill Emperor Clan famous for its alchemy, counted on one hand, and certainly no one similar; how could they not recognize him?

What caliber of a peerless elite is this mysterious Master Qian to have reached this point?

Many were filled with curiosity.

Meanwhile, figures from the Emperor Clan and Immortal Clan appeared, and among them, there was a Super Great Power at the helm, who approached Ye Chen and cupped his fists, saying, “Old Cang Chen, greetings to Master Qian.”

Upon hearing this, many prominent figures looked at Cang Chen with reverence, for he was the Supreme Elder of the Emperor Cang Clan, of a very high status, with unfathomable cultivation, having stood in the Super Great Power Realm for years, renowned in the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain.

“So it is Elder Cang Chen.” Ye Chen naturally hadn’t heard of him but returned the courtesy out of formality.

Cang Chen said, “Master Qian, so young yet unparalleled, your alchemy skill surpasses your peers, your attainments extraordinary. This old man is ashamed in comparison, but quite curious, may I ask who your master is?”

Although it felt somewhat presumptuous for the Emperor Clan’s Super Great Power to ask such a question, others were equally curious, looking at Ye Chen to unveil his true identity.

Ye Chen smiled faintly, “My master has always been a recluse, disliking worldly affairs and unwilling to be disturbed by earthly troubles. His name cannot be mentioned; I ask for your understanding.”

Upon hearing this, the others were slightly disappointed, clearly very curious about the mysterious Master Qian’s mentor.

However, if they knew that Ye Chen had received the alchemy inheritance from the Pill Emperor, considering the Pill Emperor his alchemy teacher, they would probably be utterly shocked.

Naturally, Ye Chen would not disclose it.

Cang Chen slightly frowned, not too pleased with the answer, yet unwilling to easily offend an Alchemy Master and thus smiled, “Since Master Qian follows his master’s order, naturally there’s no need to answer. Should Master Qian find the time one day, you’re welcome to visit the Emperor Cang Clan; we will certainly treat you with the utmost respect!”

“With Elder Cang Chen’s invitation, if I have the time, I will surely visit!” Ye Chen replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, other major forces also extended invitations, hoping Ye Chen would visit, promising to treat him with the highest honor if he came.

Ye Chen also smiled and responded that he would definitely come if the opportunity allowed.
