252: Zhang Yechen's Despair

“Someone, go to the Apothecary Hall and invite an Alchemist!”

Ye Langtian ignored Ye Chen's objection and immediately ordered the guards who had come with him.

Ye Chen was his only son; if there was truly a problem, it had to be discovered and treated early. If there was no way to recover, they would have to make other plans.

“Father! No, really no!”

Ye Chen's face was pale, his voice tinged with a pleading tone.

“Whoosh.......”

The surrounding crowd was instantly stunned.

No one expected Ye Chen to be so resistant to a diagnosis. Could it be that Lin Ruiyang was telling the truth?

Lin Ruiyang also smiled. It turned out that in the Cultivation world, the idea of continuing the family line was equally deeply rooted.

Ye Langtian only had one son. If Ye Chen truly lacked the ability of a man, his lineage would be finished, so how could he be careless?

Once the seed of doubt is planted in a person's heart, they will try everything to uncover the truth.

“No need to invite anyone, I am an Alchemist!”

Just then, a middle-aged man in a green robe with tiger-like eyes and a square face, accompanied by an eight or nine-year-old child, walked out from the crowd.

Although he had a middle-aged appearance, the age of a Cultivator could not be determined from their looks.

Some women lived for thousands of years, yet their appearance remained like that of a young girl.

As for the child, he looked very young, with a round face and short hair, appearing very simple.

He was the child who had questioned Lin Ruiyang's young age and lack of qualification to give a lecture at the training ground earlier.

“May I ask who you are........”

Seeing someone speak, Lin Ruiyang subconsciously sized up the other person, then stepped forward and asked.

“I am Mo Yunchui. I have some research in hidden illnesses, and perhaps I can help everyone!”

The middle-aged man smiled gently, looking very amiable, and spoke slowly.

As soon as these words were uttered, the expressions on the faces of some Elders present immediately changed.

“Mo Yunchui? A member of the Mo family from the Tiannan Region's Apothecary Pavilion?”

“Could it be that you are the Ninth Rank Alchemist of the Apothecary Pavilion, Elder Mo Yunchui?”

“It must be! The last time I was in the Tiannan Region on business, I had the honor of witnessing Elder Mo's demeanor!”

The Elders present all stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

Alchemists held a very high status in the Cultivation world, no less than Alchemists. At critical moments, they could save lives.

Mo Yunchui smiled and then bowed to the Elders: “I am shallow in knowledge and cannot bear the title of Elder!”

On the other side, when Ye Langtian saw this scene, his eyes instantly lit up, and he was ecstatic.

This was a first-rate Alchemist from the Tiannan Region. If he could diagnose Ye Chen, even if there was a hidden illness, it could be cured along the way.

Ye Chen, however, pupils contracted, looking at Mo Yunchui in disbelief. Perhaps this renowned Alchemist from the Tiannan Region could cure his function.

If he could truly restore his ability as a man, then putting aside his pride at this moment would be acceptable.

Ye Chen's expression changed unpredictably. He gazed at Mo Yunchui, his breathing becoming rapid, then slowly walked to the other person.

He tried his best to lower his posture, as this was his only hope, then respectfully said: “Junior Ye Chen greets Elder Mo!”

“I implore Elder Mo to act. Junior is willing to agree to all of Elder Mo's conditions!”

To Ye Chen, being unable to perform as a man was worse than death.

Now that he had finally encountered a master, he absolutely could not miss this opportunity. What was losing face?

“Whoosh.......”

“What, Ye Chen can't perform as a man? It's actually true........”

“What's going on? So Ancient Phoenix left because of this........”

“In that case, isn't Ancient Phoenix still a virgin.........”

“You, Ye Chen, you even tried to flirt with me back then. Luckily, I didn't agree.........”

In an instant, everyone was greatly surprised and cast strange glances at Ye Chen.

“How is that possible? He was clearly very healthy at birth!”

Ye Langtian was also stunned. He had indeed had some doubts before, but hearing Ye Chen admit it himself, he was still somewhat unable to accept it.

“Chen'er, what's going on?”

Xiao Na's expression was also somewhat dazed. No matter how fierce she usually was, at this moment, her eyes looking at Ye Chen were full of heartache.

“I.......”

Ye Chen's face turned pale. He was in an internal struggle, truly not wanting to speak of those past events.

“Elder Mo, please save my son!”

Just then, Xiao Na, who was usually strong, actually knelt before Mo Yunchui, her face full of pleading.

For Ye Langtian, if a child was not well, they could have another. But Xiao Na, as a mother, could not be so decisive.

“Husband, have you really seen Ancient Phoenix?”

Ye Qingcheng looked at Lin Ruiyang, her beautiful eyes blinking, and asked curiously.

“Thump!”

Lin Ruiyang's heart suddenly pounded. Was Ye Qingcheng suspecting something?

“No! Didn't I have someone monitor Ye Chen before? According to the intelligence sent back, in order to improve his cultivation, he actually consumed a Dragon Tiger Pill. Therefore, I concluded.......”

Lin Ruiyang naturally could not let Ye Qingcheng know that he was the one who gave the Dragon Tiger Pill. To ensure Ye Chen took it smoothly, he even bribed the people from the Alchemy Pavilion.

The surroundings were silent. Everyone quietly watched this scene, especially those who had previously mocked Ye Chen. At this moment, a strange sense of guilt inexplicably arose in their hearts.

Indeed, one had to feign tragedy to gain others' pity.

Seeing the remorse on the faces of the other Disciples, Lin Ruiyang subconsciously touched his nose. If these people knew that Ye Chen, in order to improve his cultivation during this period, had frantically assassinated some weak Cultivators and then devoured their Origin, would they still sympathize with him so much?

“This person's Essence Origin is depleted. I am also powerless!”

Mo Yunchui injected a wisp of True Qi into Ye Chen's body. After a careful examination, he sighed and shook his head.

If it were just a loss of Essence, or if there was a trace of Origin remaining, he would have the ability to regenerate it.

But now, the Origin was completely consumed, not a single trace left. Even if an Immortal Rank Alchemist were present, they would be helpless, let alone him.

“What?”

Ye Chen's body trembled. The glimmer of hope that had just arisen instantly plummeted into an abyss, and a sense of powerlessness filled his entire being.

His bones softened, and he directly sat on the ground, his eyes vacant.

“Ye Lang, I know what you're thinking!” Xiao Na's face was pale. She struggled to support the dazed Ye Langtian, using her last bit of strength: “I can still give birth....... How about....... we have another one........”

“Are you really thinking that?” Ye Langtian was ecstatic inwardly, but on his face, he still showed extreme pain and helplessness.

“Father! Mother! You........”

Ye Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at his parents with a shocked expression, feeling that they were so unfamiliar.

Then he glared fiercely at Lin Ruiyang, his eyes as red as a blood demon. It was all because of this guy that he was abandoned by his own parents.

Lin Ruiyang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He subconsciously looked at Ye Chen and met his gaze, frowning slightly: “Still daring to resent me? Good, today I'll let you know what it means to have nothing!”
