Chapter 704: 0705 Clearing the Fog! (Third Update) Eternal Brother, kiss kiss

Ye Qiu had a secret talk with Yun Shang’s manager for more than an hour and left the Cloud Gown Palace Auction House after reaching an agreement for cooperation.

"What’s your take on this young master?"

A trace of inquiry flashed in Yun Shang’s manager’s eyes.

"This young master’s strength is at the Legendary realm, but he’s extremely vigilant. I feel like he might have detected my presence," said a person in black.

Yun Shang’s manager was slightly startled. He knew very well the capabilities of the person clad in black beside him; that the young man could actually sense something was astonishing.

"However, within a single day, he gave us two Primordial Pills. I believe his alchemy is very strong. Although I don’t know his limit, just with this type of Primordial Pill, it could fetch a sky-high price at our auction house," the person in black said earnestly.

Yun Shang’s manager nodded, "Indeed, although he is young, his demeanor and speech are utterly that of a prodigy. If he can continuously produce Primordial Pills and cooperates with our Cloud Gown Palace, even if we agree to his conditions, it’s not a problem.

"I always feel that this Young Master Ye is the Ye Qiu who many ancient clans are searching for; it is said that he possesses Great Emperor level opportunities."

"Whether they are the same person or not doesn’t matter much to us. He has already proven his value. It’s no big deal for our Cloud Gown Palace to vouch for him," said Yun Shang’s manager.

"Manager, why don’t we bind him to our Cloud Gown Palace and have him refine pills for us continuously?"

Yun Shang’s manager shook his head, "I’ve had the same thought, and even a second before he left, I was still considering it, but I held back because it seemed inappropriate."

"Why? With our strength, a mere youth, even if he is an alchemist, he would have to compromise," the person in black didn’t understand.

Yet Yun Shang’s manager was still shaking his head, "Don’t you wonder what kind of terrifying existence might be behind this young master?"

Ah...

The person in black was startled, realizing he had indeed overlooked this issue.

"To be able to teach such a young alchemist, do you think he is alone? I find it impossible. Even if we are not familiar with alchemists, I have read some information from ancient books. Even in that era, it was not easy to become an alchemist. Each alchemist was forged through countless trials and consumed innumerable herbs before being able to cultivate one, and nowadays, in the ancient lands where not even a Dan Medicine Master can be found, where would you find so many pills for someone to practice alchemy? It’s a tremendous undertaking," Yun Shang’s manager explained.

The person in black thought about it and understood, agreeing with Yun Shang’s manager’s viewpoint. In that era, alchemists held very high positions. Considering the decline of martial arts in the ancient lands now, having such a young alchemist meant that there must be a terrifying existence standing behind him.

It was better to cooperate with such an existence rather than to offend it.

"Manager, your vision is indeed far-reaching. I was shortsighted," said the person in black.

Yun Shang’s manager slowly put away the Primordial Pill and said, "Perhaps the opportunity for your breakthrough lies with him. I am considering asking him to refine a batch of peerless treasure pills to help you break through your current realm."

"Thank you for your concern, Manager," the person in black expressed gratefully.

...

Reaching a cooperation with Cloud Gown Palace was a pleasing outcome for both Ye Qiu and Jin Shanshun.

After leaving the Cloud Gown Palace, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Speaking with such a power had kept him on edge the entire time, especially in the VIP room where he always felt like a pair of eyes were watching him from the shadows, which was quite terrifying.

Fortunately, the agreement was reached, and Ye Qiu was very pleased.

Jin Shanshun was also sweating for Ye Qiu. Before heading to Cloud Gown Palace, the two had prepared for the worst-case scenario. Thankfully, it never came to that, and Ye Qiu’s confident and unabashed conversation, holding his own, deeply impressed Jin Shanshun with his seemingly nonchalant composure.

"Jin Shanshun, with the remaining two Primordial Pills, you can find an opportunity to give them to your father, but for now, don’t reveal they came from me, to avoid attracting unwanted attention," Ye Qiu said.

"I... I cannot accept them. I have already refined one and reached the Legendary Realm. You should keep these two for yourself," Jin Shanshun declined.

Ever since he broke through to the Legendary Realm with the aid of a Primordial Pill, Jin Shanshun had realized how domineering these pills were, forcibly boosting him up. To call them divine pills was no exaggeration. Had he cultivated on his own, even if he continued for another year or two, Jin Shanshun could not guarantee a breakthrough, yet he had achieved it with just a single pill.

All of this was thanks to Ye Qiu, and he felt too ashamed to accept any more Primordial Pills.

Ye Qiu forcefully placed the Primordial Pills in Jin Shanshun’s hand and said, "Jin Shanshun, you have helped me so much; I, Ye Qiu, am not a selfish person. Don’t refuse the Primordial Pills any further. We will have even more pills in the future."

"But the Primordial Pill is capable of creating strong warriors, and you’re just giving them to me like this, despite..." Jin Shanshun trailed off without finishing his sentence.

Ye Qiu smiled, "Giving them to you is not like giving them to a stranger. Don’t you want to see your Jin clan grow stronger?"

"I do," Jin Shanshun answered without hesitation. As a marginal ancient clan, they stood at the bottom of the hierarchy in the ancient lands. Just the presence of a Ji clan’s kin forced his own clan to yield, a humiliating resentment they had borne for far too long.

"I know you will make good use of these two Primordial Pills, don’t be reluctant. With sufficient materials, I can refine countless more; you can freely proceed with your plans," Ye Qiu said.

Jin Shanshun did not say more. Not one pill was left for himself by Ye Qiu. Besides the two Primordial Pills given to the Cloud Gown Palace, the rest were given to him. Such generosity and trust filled Jin Shanshun with endless gratitude.

Ye Qiu returned to the cave, while Jin Shanshun, holding the Primordial Pills, went back to his clan to think about how to present them to his father to strengthen their family’s might.

Footsteps...

Ye Qiu walked through the cave, reaching the bottom, where he saw a figure.

"It’s you!"

Jin Zhimo looked at Ye Qiu in surprise as he walked into the cave. She had never expected to encounter Ye Qiu here and suddenly remembered the message Ye Qiu had sent through her before. It turned out that Jin Shanshun’s mysterious comings and goings were to meet Ye Qiu.

After a moment of surprise, Ye Qiu’s expression softened into a smile, "I didn’t expect we’d meet again."

"How come you’re here?" Jin Zhimo asked.

To her, Ye Qiu was a mysterious man, not only powerful but daring enough to confront Ji Shan directly. The scene when she first met Ye Qiu still lingered vividly in her mind—the day when Ji Shan was left with a face resembling a pig head at the hands of this young man.

Suddenly, Jin Zhimo’s eyes flashed with realization, "You couldn’t be here seeking refuge to avoid Ji Shan, could you?"

Uh...

Ye Qiu, still without a good excuse to fend off this girl, replied with a smile upon hearing this, "That’s right, after all, he is from the Ji clan. I surely can’t just start brawling and wander around; it’s better to lay low here for a while."

Upon hearing this, the imposing image of Ye Qiu in Jin Zhimo’s mind immediately took a hit, and she couldn’t help but say, "I thought you were fearless. It turns out you also know when to lay low. You seemed very impressive at that time."

"Heh heh..." Ye Qiu chuckled.

However, Jin Zhimo quickly changed her tone and warned, "You can go ahead and hide if you want, but I warn you not to drag my brother into this mess, or you’ll have to answer to me!"

"Your brother..."

"Jin Shanshun is my brother, the son of the Jin clan leader. I am his sister," Jin Zhimo said indifferently.
