CHAPTER 1289: CHAPTER 1289: DON’T WORRY, THEY’LL COME BEGGING AGAIN! (4 UPDATES)

"I suppose so!" Ye Haochuan chuckled with a smirk, "It’s just a few fourth-level pills, isn’t it? You’re at the peak of Core Formation, is there really a need to be so astonished?"

"A pure Alchemy Grandmaster isn’t anything special, but you’re so young and already a grandmaster. A few more years of practice and you’d surely become an Immortal Alchemist, wouldn’t you?"

Ku Hai’s astonished face suddenly showed a hint of pride, "I must say, we’re friends now, so don’t forget me if you ever have good pills in the future!"

"How could I forget you? Just giving me such a magnificent pill furnace is enough to make me remember your kindness for a lifetime!" Ye Haochuan replied with a grin.

He’s not a hypocritical person; it’s just that this furnace is truly exceptional.

He had just attempted to refine a Revival Pill for the first time, and although his techniques were skilled, his familiarity with the pills was still somewhat lacking. Unexpectedly, all the pills turned out to be superior quality, thanks largely to the furnace.

After chatting briefly with Ku Hai, Ye Haochuan finally popped a Revival Pill into his mouth. The pill melted immediately, and the potent medicinal power spread throughout his body, healing his injuries at a speed much faster than using Spiritual Energy alone.

Feeling the benefits of the pill, Ye Haochuan was even more eager to continue refining.

It wasn’t long before a commotion arose outside.

"Excuse me, does Young Master Ye live here?"

"Who is it?" Ku Hai, who was engrossed watching Ye Haochuan refine pills, got up with some impatience.

"I am Yang Guoyong, here to apologize to Young Master Ye for the earlier rudeness of the Yang Family!" the visitor said respectfully.

Ku Hai frowned. He knew of Yang Guoyong, who held a significant position in the Yang Family and was at the Nascent Soul Late Stage of cultivation.

Though Ku Hai held a distinguished position in the Xuanmen due to his genius reputation, he still had to be respectful in front of Yang Guoyong.

He never imagined Yang Guoyong would come to his home so respectfully and apologize to a junior.

What kind of background does Ye Haochuan have to warrant such attention from the Yang Family?

Ku Hai frowned, scrutinizing Ye Haochuan.

His nature was straightforward; he thought Ye Haochuan was worth befriending and didn’t bother to inquire about his background. In hindsight, he realized that although he frequently used the word "friend," he knew nothing about Ye Haochuan.

Ye Haochuan was somewhat displeased by the interruption, but upon recognizing an old acquaintance, he couldn’t say much and smiled, "So it’s Brother Guoyong. My apologies for not welcoming you from afar, I hope you’ll forgive me!"

"Not at all, I heard Junior Brother Ye visited the Yang Family earlier, and due to a misunderstanding by the Yang Family’s disciples, I hope Junior Brother Ye won’t take it to heart."

"The Yang Family’s threshold is perhaps too high. It was presumptuous of me to intrude and I hope the Yang Family won’t pursue it!"

Ye Haochuan still wore a smile, but anyone could see the sarcasm in his words.

Yang Guoyong looked embarrassed; what Yang Yi did before was indeed excessive. Not only did he refuse to let Ye Haochuan in, but he almost killed him. If it were him, he wouldn’t easily swallow such an insult either.

"Junior Brother saved the family head, which makes you a benefactor of our Yang Family. We..."

Yang Guoyong tried to continue, but Ye Haochuan interrupted, "There’s no need for those flattering words. Brother Yang, you’re here not just to apologize, right?"

Yang Guoyong’s smile froze, and he said awkwardly, "This visit is mainly for apologies. However, there’s also a small favor we wish to ask of Brother Ye..."

"The safety of the Patriarch of the Yang Family and Director of the Institute of Extensive Learning shouldn’t be considered a small matter, right?" Ye Haochuan said with interest.

"You...how do you know?" Yang Guoyong responded, dumbfounded.

Ye Haochuan smirked and said, "If it were a Medical Immortal or one of their top students, Director Yang’s poison should have been resolved. But this time, there are only three juniors, who are still lacking in skill!"

Earlier, upon hearing that only the Tu Family’s three brothers were treating Yang Sen, he secretly laughed. Although the Tu Family is a reputable medical cultivating family, these three men were distracted and not very skilled.

That’s why, before leaving, he had said that particular sentence to Yang Yi.

Yang Guoyong’s eyes brightened at these words. He initially came only because he judged Ye Haochuan’s medical skills to be impressive from those few pins for Yang Sen, hoping to test his luck.

He didn’t expect Ye Haochuan’s medical skills to be so good that he could surmise the reason why Yang Sen’s injuries couldn’t be healed from just a few words.

"Since Brother Ye has already deduced the family head’s condition, I’m sure you have a way to save him. Please, Brother Ye, generously lend your aid and save the family head from trouble!" Yang Guoyong said as he respectfully offered a salute.

"I wouldn’t mind helping, but I’ve just returned from a brush with death. Do you think a few casual words will make me set aside past grievances, treating my life so lightly?"

Ye Haochuan hoisted Yang Guoyong up and said, "Brother, you should head back please."

Yang Guoyong clearly understood the meaning behind Ye Haochuan’s words and hastily said, "As long as you help, the Yang Family will surely reward you greatly once the matter is resolved."

"I really don’t care much about heavy rewards now!" Ye Haochuan laughed, "Why don’t you go back and ask Yang Yi if he remembers what I said just now?"

"Uhh..." Yang Guoyong looked troubled.

He certainly knew about the issues between Yang Yi and Ye Haochuan, and he also knew it was Yang Yi’s fault. But for Yang Yi to lower his head was harder than climbing a mountain.

"Brother Ye, could we perhaps discuss this further? As for Yang Yi, it’s indeed a bit..."

"That is your business. If such a minor thing can’t be achieved, what should make me believe in the Yang Family’s sincerity?" Ye Haochuan’s face turned stern, his attitude resolute.

Yang Guoyong realized there was no room for negotiation. He said no more and took his leave.

"Bravo!" Ku Hai looked at Ye Haochuan with admiration and gave him a thumbs up.

Even he wouldn’t dare to disregard Yang Guoyong and the Yang Family, but Ye Haochuan did just that, not only ignoring them but also leaving them speechless.

"My medical skills are not meant for currying favor with these powerful nobles!" Ye Haochuan chuckled with a smirk.

"Tough guy, I didn’t misjudge you!"

Ku Hai praised him, but then his expression hardened, "However, Yang Yi is famously arrogant. To have him bow his head would be difficult! While your medical skills are impressive, there are still numerous medical experts from the Tu Family in the Holy City.

If they go to the Tu Family now, you might not only fail to relieve your frustration but also unwittingly incur the Yang Family’s hostility!"

"They wouldn’t go to the Tu Family now; I think the real experts from the Tu Family are already treating Yang Sen!"

Ye Haochuan replied with a calm smile, "Yang Guoyong came mainly to apologize for the previous incident. As for seeking medical help, it was merely in passing, hoping to provide Yang Sen with more options. Otherwise, why would he leave so easily?"

"That’s true!" Ku Hai nodded, a bit regretfully, "However, since the experts from the Yang Family have already gone, you missed the chance to extort them!"

"Don’t worry, they’ll come to me again!" Ye Haochuan replied with a carefree smile and went back to refining his pills.
