100: Chapter 100 The Yan Family's Powerful Members!
Li Yuan already had a general idea regarding the problems he was currently facing.
His previous low profile was mostly for self-preservation, to avoid inviting trouble upon himself.
But now, his strength was already at the Ninth Grade Middle Stage, and he was close to stepping into the Ninth Grade Great Perfection.
Furthermore, because he practiced the Tai Xuan Divine Art, there was already a massive gap between his martial arts Foundation and that of others.
In this Realm of Da Shun, there weren't many experts left who could even trade blows with him.
His previous worries were mostly about certain extreme situations.
For example, if those few Ninth Grade Great Perfection Martial Artists in Da Shun were to unite and surround him.
Facing that kind of trouble would likely be slightly tricky to deal with.
However, after touching several more corpses, although Li Yuan's strength had not yet reached the Ninth Grade Great Perfection, his growth was very obvious.
Even if he encountered a siege by several Ninth Grade Great Perfection experts, Li Yuan was confident he could escape unscathed.
If his strength progressed one step further, if they tried to attack him, they would all be counter-killed.
Perhaps, it was time to reveal his strength to the outside world.
Stepping out of the house, Li Yuan looked at the lush flower beds.
Blindly keeping a low profile would always lead to being looked down upon.
If one has the ability to flourish, then one must bloom in full, letting others admire and worship.
This time, facing the Yan Family, he would no longer hide.
Having understood this, Li Yuan became much, much more at ease.
After keeping a low profile for so long, the hardest days were already over.
Next, he would not only solve the trouble brought by the Yan Family.
The grudge of his parents' death... it was time for a reckoning.
After several Instructors spoke to Li Yuan about this, over the next few days, someone sent by the Yan Family would come every other day.
Holding letters in their hands, they made high-and-mighty proclamations at the Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy.
Those who didn't know better would have thought they were people sent by the Imperial Court to announce an edict.
Every time someone came, what they said was more or less the same.
They were all demanding Li Yuan's cooperation.
The Yan Family was a pillar of Da Shun, and Yan Chenzhou was the future hope of the Yan Family, the one who would take the helm in the future.
Therefore, Li Yuan's cooperation was also contributing to the country and earning merit for Da Shun.
After Li Yuan finished the Drug Trial, the Yan Family would make a recommendation to the Imperial Court.
At that time, they would request a title for Li Yuan, at least that of a Baron.
Every time they came, they caused a huge stir, making it known to everyone.
The stance of the frontline army at Yingyang Pass was also brought up in public time and time again.
From the perspective of being in the right, the Yan Family was no longer so clearly in the wrong.
After all, the power behind Li Yuan had already expressed its stance clearly.
The frontline army of Yingyang Pass had explicitly refused to let Yan Chenzhou act as a Medicine Tester for Li Yuan.
And they specifically emphasized having Li Yuan serve as the Medicine Tester to assist Yan Chenzhou in his advancement.
On the surface, the Yan Family's argument was barely acceptable.
But as far as the overall public opinion in Da Shun was concerned, the Yan Family hadn't convinced many people.
In the eyes of most factions, this was all the Yan Family using threats and inducements.
With a Ninth-Grade Supreme backing them, most factions would submit.
The City Lords Mansion of Yingyang Pass had developed a slight connection with a mysterious expert a while ago.
After that mysterious expert appeared for a while, he disappeared completely.
Those with a bit of inside knowledge all confirmed that the mysterious expert's relationship with the City Lords Mansion of Yingyang Pass was not deep.
Under such circumstances, how could they possibly withstand the pressure from the Yan Family?
Counting the person who came today, the Yan Family had already sent four waves of people to discuss this matter.
The reaction of the Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy exceeded Li Yuan's expectations.
For the sake of his affairs, Dean Guo had actually taken a very tough stance against the Yan Family.
This point surprised Li Yuan greatly.
The Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy had a long history and deep heritage.
But it only had history and some Secret Realm heritage.
When it came to the methods and capabilities of a faction, the Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy was simply not qualified to be compared with the Yan Family.
Strictly speaking, the Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy was only one level higher than Qianqiu Mountain.
Even so, the Dean was still helping him resist the Yan Family.
According to some people, the academy was doing this because they saw that Li Yuan had value.
They were protecting Li Yuan for the sake of profit as well.
But for Li Yuan, he didn't look at the motive, only the result.
Those who wanted to harm him could find all sorts of high-sounding reasons and excuses.
After a round of defense, he, the victim, would end up looking more like the bad guy.
Those who helped him might indeed have chosen to help because of their stance or interests.
But the fact remained that they helped.
Since they chose to help, regardless of the reason or cause, they should be classified as a friendly force.
Li Yuan wasn't that foolish; he wouldn't be led astray by certain arguments.
After four refusals, that night, several Instructors came looking for him with anxious faces.
Looking at their nervous expressions, big trouble must have arrived.
The Instructors spoke directly, getting straight to the point.
The Yan Family had sent an extraordinary person over.
This person's name was very arrogant: Yan Wudi.
“Is he that Ninth-Grade Supreme of the Yan Family?” Li Yuan didn't know much about the Yan Family and asked.
Hearing this, the Instructors shook their heads.
“To handle the affairs of a Junior, that Ninth-Grade Supreme probably wouldn't show his face.
A Ninth-Grade Supreme has too much prestige; the Yan Family wouldn't be that casual.
But this Yan Wudi might be even harder to deal with than if that Ninth-Grade Supreme had shown up...”
Looking at the expressions of the Instructors, this matter truly seemed to be quite troublesome.
Amidst the hesitation, one Instructor began to introduce this Yan Wudi.
“Yan Wudi is a madman with an unclear head; he's the kind of person you can't even talk reason with...”
“Although his strength hasn't stepped into the position of a Ninth-Grade Supreme, he's only one step away.
And because he's somewhat crazed, worldly affairs don't have much of a hold on him; instead, he can focus more on Cultivating and training.”
From what the two Instructors said, their evaluation of this Yan Wudi was very high.
A typical madman expert.
“I don't know if you know about Prince Fang of the Jin State, Li Yuan. He is the number one person below the Ninth Grade in the Jin State, the strongest among the Eighth Grade.
The strongest person below the Ninth Grade in our Da Shun is this Yan Wudi.
This is also why the Yan Family dares to be so arrogant.
They not only have a Ninth-Grade Supreme but also a top-tier Eighth Grade expert like this.
Even for many things where the Yan Family's Ninth-Grade Supreme doesn't show up, they can still hold all the advantages.”
As the Instructors spoke of this, the difficult problem they were facing was fully presented before Li Yuan.
This Yan Wudi's mind was frantic, so naturally, he had no taboos in his actions.
During the upcoming discussion and negotiation, there was no telling when he might go wild.
Unfortunately, this madman's strength was also quite extraordinary.
If he were to start a fight, even Dean Guo would find it hard to stop him.
How could such a person care about any laws or rules? Everyone in Da Shun also knew that Yan Wudi was this kind of lunatic.
Even if he did some arrogant things, everyone would only feel that this was exactly the kind of thing he would do.
The consensus from multiple parties, combined with this person's terrifying ability...
Once this Yan Wudi arrived, this matter would be made extremely troublesome.
At that time, even if Dean Guo had the intention, he might not be able to help Li Yuan!
