360 Yao Tianchen’s Concerns
Ye Xuan had seen the disturbance in the Valley of Medicine Masters. Although Yao Tianchen had made it clear, how could he not know the commotion that had been caused?
Even A’tian was worried.
“Young Master Ye, they won’t really hand us over, will they? If we fall into the hands of the Five Poison Sect…”
Thinking of those densely packed poisonous insects with ferocious faces, A’tian couldn’t help but shiver.
Ye Xuan patted his head and said, “What are you thinking? The Valley of Medicine Masters would not do such a thing.”
Putting aside what kind of person Yao Tianchen was, if they really handed Ye Xuan to the Five Poison Sect, Yao Tianchen would lose his reputation and sully the name of the Valley of Medicine Masters. Furthermore, Yao Tianchen was not that kind of person.
Even if he was that kind of person, he still had He Jiantian and Mo Jianming’s reputations to consider. Thus, the Valley of Medicine Masters would not dare to touch him so easily.
Ye Xuan explained the stakes, “So, emotion and reason wise, the Valley of Medicine Masters will not agree to this.”
However, he felt that it was a little strange. Even if there were a few people who didn’t care about his kindness and wanted to hand him over to settle the matter, they wouldn’t have caused such a big commotion.
Although it was said that good bamboo also had bad bamboo shoots, those Valley of Medicine Masters disciples didn’t look like they were ungrateful, so how could it be that the rumors were so rampant?
Without waiting for Ye Xuan to understand, Yao Tianchen came over to check his pulse.
He drank the decoction three times a day. Ye Xuan didn’t know if it was his psychological effect or if it really worked, but he felt that the connection between that heart and him was becoming more and more relaxed. Maybe it could really be expelled from his body.
Ye Xuan explained his thoughts, but Yao Tianchen shook his head, “It’s not that simple. However, according to the current situation, everything is developing well. Let’s continue with the decoction for a few more days and see.”
After checking his pulse, Yao Tianchen did not leave.
Ye Xuan could tell that he had something to say. After a moment of silence, Ye Xuan said, “Valley Master Yao, if you have something to say, you can just say it.”
“I’m sure you’ve heard some of the rumors in the valley. It’s because I didn’t discipline them well. You’re an honored guest, so you don’t have to take those words to heart.”
Based on Ye Xuan’s intelligence, he should have heard part of it. Yao Tianchen’s visit this time was to calm him down and prevent Ye Xuan from overthinking.
“Since Sect Master He asked me to take care of you, and you have also saved the disciples of the valley, I will definitely not shirk my duty and cure you.”
Ye Xuan straightforwardly said, “You’re too kind, Valley Master Yao.”
From his expression, it was obvious that Ye Xuan did not take those rumors to heart. Yao Tianchen nodded his head, “It’s naturally good that you can think this way.”
Even though Yao Tianchen had the air of a sage and didn’t seem to care about anything, Ye Xuan still caught traces of worry.
“Valley Master, are you bothered by the Five Poison Sect?”
Yao Tianchen forced a smile and replied, “Since you asked, I will not hide anything. Actually, regarding the Five Poison Sect, even without your incident, they would have caused trouble in the future.”
If they used forceful methods to resolve it, a huge battle would be inevitable. However, Yao Tianchen loved the peace and did not like conflict, so he did not want to see a scene of blood flowing like a river.
But if they used a tactful attitude to handle this matter, they were afraid that the Five Poison Sect would be insatiable and think that the Valley of Medicine Masters was afraid of them. In the future, they would be even more arrogant, and it was not a good way to go on like this.
Ye Xuan understood Yao Tianchen’s concerns. Ye Xuan pondered for a moment and said, “Actually, I feel that sometimes, it’s necessary to use some iron-handed methods.”
From this point of view, his thoughts were somewhat in line with the Fourth Elder’s idea.
“Although I’ve only been in the Valley of Medicine Masters for a few days, I’ve heard from the disciples of the valley that the Five Poison Sect has been rampant for a long time. If we continue to let them grow and expand, I’m afraid it won’t be beneficial to the Valley of Medicine Masters.”
Although there was some distance between the Valley of Medicine Masters and the Five Poison Sect, their forces were intertwined. If the Five Poison Sect wanted to continue to expand, they would not be able to cross the threshold of the Valley of Medicine Masters.
Moreover, the alchemy skills of the Valley of Medicine Masters could cure some of the poisons. Although they were not deliberately targeting the Five Poison Sect, it could not be helped. The two sides would inevitably have friction.
If the Five Poison Sect was broad-minded and not so narrow-minded, it would be fine. However, the Five Poison Sect’s sect master was a narrow-minded and ambitious person. How could they not cause trouble?
Yao Tianchen sighed and said, “I actually also know everything you’ve said, but…”
He wanted to say something, but he stopped in the end.
Ye Xuan didn’t continue. After all, this was a matter of the Valley of Medicine Masters. He had only been here for a few days, and even if he had a relationship with He Jiantian, it was not appropriate for him to interfere too much, lest he gets criticized.
“Junior Ye, you should recuperate properly. I’ll take care of these things.”
Ye Xuan wasn’t worried. After all, the Valley of Medicine Masters was such a big sect, and they knew many people. The nearby sects had more or less received favors from them. If the Five Poison Sect really wanted to make a move, those sects wouldn’t sit by and do nothing.
Worse comes to worst, even if the Valley of Medicine Masters handed him over, Ye Xuan was not afraid. Even if it was the base camp of the Five Poison Sect, he had the confidence that he could escape.
A’tian saw that Yao Tianchen had walked far away. Then, he said, “Young Master, I actually have the same thoughts as you. The Five Poison Sect is so aggressive, so why don’t we just attack them directly? Besides, they were in the wrong in the first place.”
In fact, Ye Xuan also understood Yao Tianchen’s concerns. Yao Tianchen was worried about the casualties because of the low combat strength of the disciples in the valley.
“If they really want to fight, I’m afraid Valley of Medicine Masters will need to ask for some outside help. You see those disciples refining pills, but when have you ever seen them refine swords?”
“That seems to be the case. Who cares? Even if the sky falls, there’s someone tall enough to hold it up.”
A’tian was very optimistic. Anyway, with Ye Xuan here, no matter how big the difficulty was, it could be solved.
“Young Master, how is your body? The medicine should be effective after drinking it for so long, right?”
Ye Xuan gave a vague reply, telling A’tian not to worry. After drinking the bitter medicine for a long time, he had actually gotten used to it.
