Chapter 65 - The One

Seeing that the Su family was about to leave, Lin Yuanheng suddenly said, “Wait!”

Patriarch Su turned around with a gloomy face, “What else?!”

He took a step forward and said calmly, “You broke off the engagement in public and humiliated me again and again. Are you going to let this matter go just like that? I’m afraid it’s not enough even if you have the Yaochi Holy Land to support you.”

Ye Xuan’s eyes lit up. It’s here! The most anticipated slapping-in-face segment.

Patriarch Su was so angry that his facial features were somewhat distorted, “What do you want?”

“Didn’t you all say that I’m trash? I’ll challenge Su Qingyun in a year’s time. If you lose, you’ll have to personally come and apologize. Remember, it’s my Lin family who broke the engagement. You don’t deserve it!”

Lin Yuanheng’s words were loud and clear, like a heavy hammer smashing into everyone’s heart although his foundation had just been restored and his current cultivation was not high.

This kind of charm and spirit did not lose to any of the experts. Even the powerful Su Qingyun seemed to be inferior to him. No one would think that Lin Yuanheng was overestimating his own ability.

Such a scene would probably be imprinted in the hearts of all the guests.

“Well said!”

Ye Xuan was the first to applaud in public, pretending not to see Patriarch Su’s murderous gaze. Although the others also wanted to cheer, they could only support it in their hearts due to the pressure of the Su family.

Patriarch Su’s gloomy eyes swept over Ye Xuan and then fell on Lin Yuanheng. He almost gritted his teeth to squeeze out a sentence, “Alright, I promise you.”

He flicked his sleeves and left, leaving only his angry back view.

However, Su Qingyun did not leave immediately. She suddenly said, “I’ll wait.” She paused for a moment, then said word by word, “I’ll remember you.”

This sentence seemed to be for Lin Yuanheng, but her eyes were fixed on Ye Xuan.

the engagement banquet ended just like that.

Everyone was still in doubt. How could Ye Xuan have a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill? After this incident, the news of him having this pill would probably spread very quickly.

Fortunately, the Lin family patriarch came forward and said, “Young Brother Ye only has one pill. He has already given it to Heng’er. Please don’t ask anymore.”

Even if the crowd did not believe it, they could not say much. They could only leave with the Lin family patriarch holding the fort. As for whether they believed it or not, only they themselves knew.

After everyone left, Ye Xuan and Alchemy King Gu Xi stayed behind.

Alchemy King Gu Xi gave Lin Yuanheng a full examination again. His expression was a little serious, “Although young master’s foundation has been repaired, just one supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill is not enough due to the serious damage. I’m afraid it will relapse in the future.”

The Lin family patriarch was taken aback, “Do you mean Heng’er will be in the same situation in the future?”

Alchemy King Gu Xi nodded, “Furthermore, his foundation is weaker than ordinary people. He can’t be too badly injured. Otherwise…”

Before he could finish his sentence, the others immediately understood what the alchemy king meant. It was like a wet blanket to them. Their hearts had just been warmed up but now fell to the ground again.

“In that case, aren’t we overjoyed for nothing?”

Lin Yuanheng was stunned at first, then he showed a relieved smile. His mentality was very good even though he had turned from a genius to a good-for-nothing. He even comforted the Lin family patriarch.

“Father, I’m already very lucky to be able to repair my foundation. Alchemy king only said that it’s possible to happen. I’ll be more careful in the future.”

The Lin family patriarch couldn’t help but sigh, “This isn’t a matter of being cautious at all. You have just set the one-year promise. What are you going to do when you challenge Su Qingyun?”

“When there’s a will, there’s a way. Besides, there’s still a year left. Maybe I can find other ways to make up for this deficiency.”

Lin Yuanheng was still very optimistic. It was easy for him to say, but it was extremely difficult in fact. Otherwise, he would not have waited until now.

The Lin family was dejected. They originally thought that everything would be fine once Lin Yuanheng’s foundation was repaired. Who knew that there would be such a thing?

However, Ye Xuan was a little puzzled, “What’s wrong with you guys? If one pill isn’t enough, then just get a few more.”

Alchemy King Gu Xi sighed, “Where can we get another supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xuan waved his hand, and countless black meatballs appeared on the table, “You can just ask me. Is this enough?”

Even the Lin family patriarch, who had always been calm and composed, had his mouth wide open and could not help but gasp. The expressions on the others’ faces could even be described as dumbfounded.

Lin Yuanheng stuttered and asked, “What is this? Is it what I imagined?”

Ye Xuan casually picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth, “It’s a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill. Didn’t you eat it before?”

Lin Yuanheng swallowed it subconsciously. It really tasted the same. He shook his head violently, “I didn’t mean that. I mean, where did you get so much of them?”

Ye Xuan had just taken the pills out casually. People who didn’t know better would think that this kind of supreme-grade pill was as common as cabbage.

“You mean this? I have a lot of them, so you can eat as much as you want. Consider I’ve lost if you finish them.”

Ye Xuan didn’t think much of it. Looking at his calm expression, everyone in the Lin family was shocked.

One must know that those were supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills, but not ordinary things.

Probably because of the spiritual plant incident, Alchemy King Gu Xi seemed to be the calmest one. But in fact, his heart was also in a state of shock.
