Realms In The Firmament
chapter-1787

“Monarch Ye, you are here.” Qiao Wu was surprised.

“That’s right.” Ye Xiao looked indifferent. He said blandly, “How are you?”

“We are fine. Nothing serious now.” They had learned about Ye Xiao’s indifference, so they were used to it.

Capable men always had their own ways of doing things. It was reasonable that such a great man acted in a special way!

“I guess your young master must have woken, hasn’t he?” Ye Xiao asked.

“You are such a brilliant person with sharp eyes. Our master has woken up, but he was too tired, so he fell asleep again. Thank you for your care, Lord Monarch.” Qiao Wu said.

“I don’t care that much. If he is awake, why are you still staying? To what end are you going to stay in my place?” Ye Xiao impatiently looked at Qiao Wu and said, “The wounds are healed. The poisons are gone. You should be able to move yourselves now. Why are you still here? You want to get as much spiritual energy as you can, don’t you?”

“…”

The three guards were wordless.

‘This man is truly… unbelievable… As a man who provides medical treatments, how could he be so mean to the patients? He must be the meanest doctor in history.’

‘It feels like he doesn’t want others to be grateful for what he did. It was like a bucket of cold water on my head when I am filled with gratitude for him. That was a shock.’

‘Well, this place is a great place for cultivation, but we wouldn’t… Well… We would… Nobody wants to leave a place like this. But it shouldn’t be said so frankly, should it? It damages the loving respect from us to a marvelous doctor!’

‘It is easy to admire somebody, as much as to dislike someone!’

“Please, Master Ye. Our young master is awake, but he is still too weak to move…” Qiao Wu explained.

Qiao Wu was such a powerful cultivator, who was already nearly at the top of the Immortality Stage. He was even more powerful than the Flower King. However, when he faced Ye Xiao, he always felt shorter than he was.

“You know I am the marvelous doctor, don’t you? Why did you tell me that your master is weak? How weak? Is he really too weak to move? Are you questioning me? Do you think you know better than I do?”

Ye Xiao rolled his eyes up and said, “Is this what you want? You think your master is weak, so you stay. You think he is going to be weak for ten years, so you are going to stay here for ten years. Is it what you want? I am being very kind and generous to you, but I am not a fool. Don’t you ever think that you can deceive me? I am not stupid!”

“Hmmm… We didn’t mean that… What I meant… Well… We just want a few more days for our young master to rest. When he is a little better, we will leave immediately.”

No matter how Qiao Wu was impressed by Ye Xiao, he started to dislike this marvelous doctor. He seriously said, “We won’t forget what you did for us. We have heard about the rules of the Hall of Life and Death. We will pay you, and we will double the price. What do you think, Monarch Ye?”

“Humph…” Ye Xiao wanted to say something, but he held it. Instead, he said, “Fine. As long as you pay the money. Ten days. I won’t charge you much. Just pay ten million purple spirit coins, and we are even!”

‘What? Ten million purple spiritual coins?’

Qiao Wu was astonished and angry. He gritted his teeth and stared at Ye Xiao.

‘Is this a joke? Ten million purple spirit coins? You better go rob a bank!’

“If you leave right now, it will be only one million purple spirit coins!” Ye Xiao indifferently looked at him, as if he didn’t know how angry the man was.

“We… We want to stay for three days more!” Qiao Wu wanted to leave immediately, but he couldn’t. Pushing his anger down his throat, he tried to speak peacefully.

“Hmm. Five million purple spirit coins. No bargain!” Ye Xiao nodded.

“Deal!”

Ye Yunduan turned around, walked to the door, and turned around again. “There is one thing you need to know. Something happened last night. The Great Ye Army is now an empty place. Ye Yunduan is missing. He could be alive, or dead. Nobody knows. There is no more Great Ye Army in the world.”

“What?!”

The three guards were shocked. They wanted to know more, but Ye Xiao didn’t wait for their questions. He left.

The three guards were blank.

“What? Ye Yunduan is missing. How come? The Great Ye Army is dismissed?” The three men were in confusion.

They hated Ye Changqing, but they saw how powerful the Great Ye Army was. Deeply in their hearts, they were impressed by the power of the Great Ye Army. It was true that Ye Changqing had done a good job in building such a powerful force within such a short time.

The men of the Great Ye Army actually supported Ye Changqing when they knew that he was fake. Well, Qiao Wu had no idea why those men looked so loyal to the fake Young Master Yunduan. When the true Young Master Yunduan appeared, Ye Changqing pretended to give up the leading chair, and that impressed the guards of Ye Yunduan. That was why Ye Changqing’s people could succeed in the ambush!

‘Ye Changqing was controlling such a powerful force, then why would he suddenly lose everything?’

‘What happened?’

‘Isn’t it unbelievable?’

“Could it be… Did the seven great ancestors come out and do this?” Qiao Wu seemed to be glad.

Qiao Wu made the most reasonable assumption. The Great Ye Army was powerful. Even if the ten guards of Ye Yunduan were alive, they still couldn’t defeat the Great Ye Army.
