1691 Heavenly Eagle Change Heavens
Did he want to grovel and wag his tail?
Of course he wanted to!
Too freaking wanted to!
Who could refuse the allure of achieving a breakthrough, becoming a ninth-layered heaven Divine Lord?
If Ye Yuan gave him a chance to grovel and wag his tail right now, he definitely would!
But the problem was, would Ye Yuan give it?
Ning Zhiyuan’s body faintly exuded a powerful aura.
That was the aura belonging to a ninth-layered heaven Divine Lord!
He, s.h.i.+ Feng, yearned for such strength so much!
Looking behind him again, that bunch of old fellows were in high and vigorous spirits. How was there any hint of being old and ailing like a candle in the wind?
Especially Ning Canghai, breaking through to become seventh-layered heaven Divine Lord in one stroke, he would have the qualifications to enter the Elders a.s.sociation!
The Ning Family would occupy another spot in the Elders a.s.sociation!
This significance was huge.
“Heh, Family Head is really wise! This time, our Ning Family thoroughly overshadowed the s.h.i.+ Family!”
“In the future, our Ning Family will do Head Elder Ye Yuan’s bidding without a word!”
“Oh, you guys, better hurry up and think of ways on how to let Head Elder Ye Yuan cool down! Haha …”
The Ning Family’s clan elders were all extremely pleased with themselves. That appearance was like villains intoxicated with success.
However, they had this qualification.
Because they knew that in the future, no family could surpa.s.s the Ning Family anymore.
Ye Yuan naturally would not be indifferent to the other families, but he absolutely would not treat the other families like the Ning Family.
This was the difference in the degree of intimacy.
Ning Zhiyuan laughed and said, “s.h.i.+ Feng, don’t blame me for not warning you. It’s best that you rack your brain and think of how to cut off relations with Ruo Xu. This is your only hope. Hahaha …”
Finished talking, Ning Zhiyuan brought the group of elders and swaggered away.
s.h.i.+ Feng’s brows furrowed and could not help musing.
Not just s.h.i.+ Feng, the others similarly fell into deep thought.
There were some hints in Ning Zhiyuan’s words!
…
Three months pa.s.sed in a blink. During these three months, Ruo Xu suffered the pain of having his mind withered away. Even his entire person withered considerably.
Leaving the G.o.d Refining Abyss, Ruo Xu gnashed his teeth in hatred and said, “Ye Yuan, do you really think that you do whatever you want when you become the head elder? This old man will let you know what’s called too high to touch!”
Ruo Xu did not even return home and went to the s.h.i.+ Family straight away.
But what he did not expect was that the one who came out to meet him was actually s.h.i.+ Song and not s.h.i.+ Feng.
The person that the s.h.i.+ Family sent out was s.h.i.+ Song. Seeing Ruo Xu, s.h.i.+ Song clasped his hands and said, “s.h.i.+ Song has seen Third Elder.”
Ruo Xu’s face fell, and he said unhappily, “s.h.i.+ Song, what did you call me?”
From being the head elder to the second elder, and then from the second elder to the third elder, this was the greatest pain in Ruo Xu’s heart, and also the greatest shame.
This s.h.i.+ Song actually rubbed his nose in it!
However, s.h.i.+ Song said very calmly, “Third Elder, this was personally dictated by City Lord! This … s.h.i.+ Song is just a n.o.body, Third Elder you’ve already stayed in the G.o.d Refining Abyss for three months. Please don’t make things difficult for s.h.i.+ Song.”
Ruo Xu’s face turned black. s.h.i.+ Song’s words rendered him speechless.
Yes, Ye Yuan had just set the rules, so who would slam into the spearhead? Wasn’t this looking for abuse?
Ruo Xu said unhappily, “We’re in private, so what are you scared of?! Can he, Ye Yuan, really cover the sky with one hand? This old man coming out this time, I’ll definitely play him to death!”
s.h.i.+ Song sneered in his heart but said indifferently on the surface, “Third Elder, there are no walls in the world without a crack. s.h.i.+ Song is just an unimportant character. Third Elder, don’t make things difficult for me anymore.”
Ruo Xu was in an irritable mood and waved his hand and said, “Forget it, forget it! Where’s s.h.i.+ Feng? Call him out to see me!”
s.h.i.+ Song said, “Third Elder really came untimely. Patriarch he recently had some accidental gains and just entered seclusion a few days back. He likely won’t come out any time soon.”
The moment Ruo Xu heard, he said in a great rage, “What? At this juncture, he actually went into closed-seclusion! Could it be that he wants to see Ye Yuan s.h.i.+t and p.i.s.s on the s.h.i.+ Family’s head? This b.l.o.o.d.y b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
Ruo Xu had an enraged appearance from disappointment. Clearly, he was very angry.
Not going into a retreat earlier or later, he just had to enter closed-seclusion at this juncture where Ruo Xu came out of the G.o.d Refining Abyss.
If it were before, s.h.i.+ Song naturally would not have any problem with it.
But now, he was very unhappy in his heart.
Did this Ruo Xu really take the s.h.i.+ Family to be a dog of his?
s.h.i.+ Song said, “This is also something that can’t be helped. If Third Elder has something, please come again another day.”
The expression on Ruo Xu’s face was very ugly, giving s.h.i.+ Song a fierce glare. He then left.
After Ruo Xu left, s.h.i.+ Feng’s figure slowly came out. s.h.i.+ Song said with an angry look: “Patriarch, this old fogey really takes our s.h.i.+ Family to be a dog raised by him! Does he think that the current Heavenly Eagle is still the Heavenly Eagle three months ago? If I were to say, we might as well directly lose all decorum with him.”
s.h.i.+ Feng said coolly, “Do you think that by losing all decorum, Head Elder will be able to accept us? Our muddy waters are too deep! Sigh … right now, our s.h.i.+ Family can only tuck our tails between our legs and behave. We can’t provoke anyone. A single misstep and it’s eternal d.a.m.nation!”
s.h.i.+ Song’s expression changed and he said in surprise, “Patriarch, it wouldn’t be so serious, right?”
s.h.i.+ Feng gave him a glance and said, “It will be only more serious than you think! Head Elder’s means already surpa.s.sed your and my understanding! As long as he’s willing, he can support another family up like the Ning Family at any time! At that time, it wouldn’t be the situation of whatever s.h.i.+ Family and Ning Family contending for hegemony anymore. The s.h.i.+ Family’s existence will also become dispensable. Do you think it’s serious or not?”
s.h.i.+ Song’s heart shook wildly. He suddenly discovered that the s.h.i.+ Family was glorious on the surface right now, but actually, it was already in deep crisis.
Furthermore, what s.h.i.+ Feng said was not exaggerating things to raise an alarm.
Within a short two months, there had already been more than 20 middle-stage Divine Lord Realm powerhouses who broke through in the city!
When others were breaking through and you still marched on the spot, then … you would be eliminated sooner or later.
Currently, it was not just the Martial Tower’s elders. Even those Pill Tower’s elders could not sit still anymore as well.
Did the Pill Tower’s elders not need to break through?
They desired to break through too!
But they themselves could not refine medicinal pills capable of breaking through at all.
But the problem was that they could not but Ye Yuan could!
Will you beg me?
Do you acknowledge me as the head elder?
Within three months, the heavens of the Heavenly Eagle Imperial City already thoroughly changed.
After getting rebuffed at the door several times in a row, Ruo Xu finally discovered that something was rather wrong.
These guys seemed to have discussed it. It was either closed-seclusion or busy. It was as if he became a plague, and everyone was staying away from him.
When suffering torment in the G.o.d Refining Abyss, he already thought of a countermeasure and prepared to come out and go all out.
But after he came out, Ruo Xu suddenly discovered that he already became a loner.
A belly full of methods, but he was unable to use a single one.
Finally, Ruo Xu came to find the disciple that he was proud of, Song Qiyang. Upon asking, he finally understood what happened.
Ruo Xu’s heart shook wildly. He completely could not imagine that Ye Yuan, who had just broken through, his Alchemy Dao strength was already actually overwhelmingly horrifying!
