Chapter 264 - The Return
Buzz!
In front of the Seventeenth City of the Dragon City in the Sea, Feng Xiangming claimed he had never seen Ye Xuan in the Palace of the Ocean Dragons. Then a beam of light showed up.
And Ye Xuan appeared in front of the Dragon City in the Sea.
"Ye Xuan? How are you? Are you all right?"
Fang Xianmin, w.a.n.g Tianshan, and others all beamed at the sight of Ye Xuan. They hurried to receive him.
In the distance, none of the Beast Tamers from Guluo and other countries was happy to see that.
They had thought it would be great if Ye Xuan had run into danger in the trial grounds of the sea world.
However, to their surprise, Ye Xuan came back so soon.
And just like Feng Xiangming from the Xia, who had just come back.
He apparently got some extra benefits from the trial, too.
Ye Xuan was talented indeed.
And he got extra benefits from this trial.
So, would he be able to achieve the Platinum level in two months for real, like what he had claimed?
They felt frustrated.
They wondered how come the Beast Tamers from the Silver Blood Clan and other clans were so c.r.a.ppy.
Ye Xuan"s coordinate was published every fifteen minutes, and so many people were chasing him. However, no one managed to kill him in the Secret Realm.
"Secretary Fang, Mr. w.a.n.g."
Ye Xuan realized what all this was about as soon as he saw them receiving him. He said, "I am fine."
He was a little hesitant when he said that.
Because although he was fine, he killed more than six hundred Silver-level Beast Tamers from various clans in the Secret Realm, which he was sure would create a disturbance.
This incident was kind of serious.
Silver-level Beast Tamers were not as important as Challenger-level ones, but they were the foundation of each clan.
It was easy to imagine that there would be chaos when those clans were informed of the news.
And he would be in trouble in the future as well.
But since what was done was done, he did not feel remorseful.
Most importantly, he had become a true transmission disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons, for which he could go back to the Palace of the Ocean Dragons twice a month.
And he had also got all kinds of new abilities from the Palace of the Ocean Dragons that could increase his luck. All these gains mattered more than troubles.
It was worth it!
"Eh?"
Fang Xianmin and others were all experienced people. Seeing the unusual look, Ye Xuan had put on, they instantly knew something.
Ye Xuan had something to tell them, but this was not the appropriate occasion to do it.
"Let"s go!"
Fang Xianmin said after having realized that. Then he and others sent their flying beasts out. They took Ye Xuan and others back to the Xia.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!"
Those from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo all put on a sullen face.
Fang Xianmin and others did not even bid farewell to them at the time of leaving.
Were they neglected to such an extent?
Or was the Xia mighty enough to ignore them like that?
"What did you say? You killed more than six hundred Silver-level Beast Tamers from the Silver Blood Clan and other clans in the Secret Realm?"
However, Fang Xianmin and others had no idea what those from Guluo and other countries were thinking about.
At the moment, on their way back to the Xia, they finally knew why Ye Xuan had been holding his tongue.
They were all somewhat dumbfounded.
Did we hear you wrong, or did you tell us a lie?
According to what they had heard earlier, Ye Xuan fled in some unknown way when surrounded by the Silver Blood Clan and other clans.
But what was this?
You went back to the trial grounds of the sea world after you had fled away. Then you surrounded those from the Silver Blood Clan and other clans in the trial grounds of the sea world on your own?
"Yeah, it"s more or less like that."
Blinking his eyes, Ye Xuan asked, "Secretary Fang, did I make a contribution or trouble? Will the Xia be able to protect me? You won"t hand me over to those clans if they hit the ceiling, will you?"
"Nonsense!"
He threw Ye Xuan a look. He was surprised that Ye Xuan had driven him into a corner in front of so many people.
However, although there would be some troubles, it was beyond doubt that Ye Xuan had contributed.
He would get all of the rewards he deserved.
As to handing Ye Xuan over to those clans to calm them down, that was literally a joke.
If they really did that, how would the Xia exist in this world?
You think it is righteous for you to kill our people.
But when we killed your people, you expect us to hand our man over to you to allay your anger?
Some small weak countries might do that.
But the Xia certainly would not.
Ye Xuan replied with a grin.
"By the way."
Gazing at Ye Xuan, Fang Xianmin said, "You came back quite late. Did you get any extra benefits from the Palace of the Ocean Dragons as Feng Xiangming did?"
He knew Ye Xuan had been stunning in the Palace of the Ocean Dragons this time.
Feng Xiangming was admitted to the Palace of the Ocean Dragons as a secular disciple and got some extra benefits.
Ye Xuan must have got even more.
"Yep."
Ye Xuan said honestly. He knew there was no way he could hold this back from them.
Then he flapped his hand to take out a token. He said, "I was lucky. I am now an inner sect disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons."
The ident.i.ty as a true transmission disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons would involve a lot.
Ye Xuan did not dare tell them about it.
So, he told a lie.
And the token in his hand was actually his True Transmission Token.
But he used some trick to change the TRUE TRANSMISSION on the token to INNER SECT.
"Great!"
Fang Xianmin"s eyes lit up right away.
Feng Xiangming was only admitted as a secular disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
He had thought Ye Xuan would probably be admitted as an outer sect disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
But to his surprise, Ye Xuan was an inner sect disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
That was beyond his imagination.
However, he did not ask for more details about the gains Ye Xuan had got.
He did not ask Feng Xiangming about that, either.
Neither did he ask how Ye Xuan had managed to kill the more than six hundred Beast Tamers from various clans.
It was simply inappropriate to ask for information like that.
"Darn it!"
"This guy killed more than six hundred people from the Silver Blood Clan and other clans?"
"We are all Silver-level Beast Tamers. What a freak you are!"
At this moment, those Beast Tamers who had taken the trial with Ye Xuan all looked at him.
They were all dumbfounded.
What Ye Xuan had experienced was beyond their wildest imagination.
They had no idea at all how Ye Xuan had achieved that.
"Ye Xuan, it"s great you are fine."
Miao Shuyao came up to Ye Xuan from far away when he had told Fang Xianmin and others about his experience in the trial.
She had been really struck dumb when she had learned Ye Xuan"s coordinate would be published every fifteen minutes in the trial grounds.
She could not think of any way through which Ye Xuan could survive.
Affected by that, she had had a terrible time.
Not until Ye Xuan had left the Palace of the Ocean Dragons did she feel relieved.
"Ye Xuan."
Then, Huo Tong, Qian Ziyun.
Fang Luohong, Feng Xiangming, and some others also came over to congratulate him.
They congratulated him on both his survival in the trial grounds of the sea world and his new ident.i.ty as an inner sect disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
The Palace of the Ocean Dragons was a big force. It was a great honor for Ye Xuan to be admitted as their inner sect disciple.
They were really jealous of him.
And Ye Xuan was so insanely talented. They could not imagine what kind of great achievements Ye Xuan would get in the future.
Feng Xiangming was especially shocked.
He had been happy for being admitted to the Palace of the Ocean Dragons as a secular disciple.
But compared to Ye Xuan"s achievement, that was really nothing to mention.
He was not a rival for Ye Xuan at all.
At the same time, at the thought of the handsome rewards, he had got for becoming a secular disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
He could not help but wonder what Ye Xuan had got.
Phew!
Flying with Ye Xuan and his fellow Beast Tamers, Fang Xianmin and others finally arrived at the border of the Xia, the bay where they had a.s.sembled.
They talked to each other briefly after arrival. Then they bid farewell to each other.
"Ye Xuan, see you in two months!"
Fang Luohong patted Ye Xuan on the shoulder before leaving. "Let"s see whether you were bluffing or you really can achieve the Platinum level in two months."
Ye Xuan grinned without speaking.
Then these young Beast Tamers left with the Challenger-level ones from their prefectures.
Finally, there were only a few people left.
"Ms. Lin, how come you are here?"
Seeing the place less crowded, Ye Xuan finally found an opportunity to go up to Lin s.h.i.+ru.
He saw her a long time ago.
But there were too many people.
And everyone was trying to speak to him.
He did not even have the time to greet Lin s.h.i.+ru, except a few looks he threw at her.
"It"s great that you are back."
Looking at Ye Xuan, Lin s.h.i.+ru explained with a smile, "Mr. w.a.n.g told me that you had had an accident in the Secret Realm where the trial took place. That"s why I came."
It was great that Ye Xuan was back.
She was really relieved by Ye Xuan"s return. Since there were so many people staying around Ye Xuan, she did not speak to him.
"By the way, you weren"t injured, were you?"
She suddenly asked.
"No, I wasn"t."
Ye Xuan shook his head.
Then he started to talk with Lin s.h.i.+ru.
Seeing Ye Xuan talking to Lin s.h.i.+ru, Huo Tong, and others did not come over to interrupt them.
Ye Xuan was too strong.
They felt they and Ye Xuan were no longer on the same level.
They felt only Lin s.h.i.+ru and those Beast Tamers on higher levels were qualified to stand with Ye Xuan shoulder to shoulder.
Phew!
About more than half an hour later, w.a.n.g Tianshan took Ye Xuan and others to the gate of Jiangzhou University.
After bidding farewell to Ye Xuan with a big smile, he went on to take Huo Tong and others to their destinations.
"Ms. Lin, I will go back to check up on my parents first. I will go and visit you when everything is done."
Ye Xuan said to Lin s.h.i.+ru when they were about to part with each other on the campus of Jiangzhou University.
"What for?"
Lin s.h.i.+ru threw Ye Xuan a look.
"I feel I might be a little injured after all. I"ve got a slight headache."
Ye Xuan said, seemingly seriously, rubbing his head at the same time.
"Didn"t you just say you were not injured?"
Lin s.h.i.+ru gave Ye Xuan a stare.
"Heh-hey."
Ye Xuan grinned. He said, "Well, it"s mainly because I"ve got a lot of gains in the Secret Realm. I don"t need all of them, so I want to exchange them. And I also need some other evolutionary resources, for which I will need your help."
"Okay. Come over later."
Not until then did Lin s.h.i.+ru nod.
"When did Ye Xuan claim he would achieve the Platinum level in two months? It was not long ago."
"Who said he wouldn"t be able to achieve it?"
Ye Xuan"s fans went crazy under his post.
In the previous discussion, many of them did believe Ye Xuan had achieved the Gold level.
But it was just different to hear that from Ye Xuan himself.
How many days pa.s.sed? You already achieved the Gold level?
Will you never get stuck in your cultivation?
The discussion on the Internet was quite heated.
Then many people started to talk about Ye Xuan in real life.
In the dormitory room shared by Wei Shan and Qi Liangcai.
Looking at Qi Liangcai, Wei Shan said, "Qi Liangcai, didn"t Ye Xuan tell us that he had killed six or seven hundred Beast Tamers from other clans in the trial grounds of the sea world?"
"Yep."
Qi Liangcai nodded, staring blankly into s.p.a.ce.
Ye Xuan did tell them about that, but they thought Ye Xuan was lying.
They thought it was a joke.
However, what Ye Xuan told them turned out to be true.
Those were six or seven hundred people, not six or seven hundred cabbages.
Did you kill so many people on this trip?
Qi Liangcai took his cell phone out. He found Ye Xuan"s number and dialed it.
"What are you doing?"
Wei Shan raised his eyebrow next to him.
"Just checking on him. Wondering how he is."
Qi Liangcai said as if it was only natural for him to do that.
"Toot. Toot..." However, he dialed Ye Xuan"s number twice, and the call never got connected.
He frowned, wondering where Ye Xuan was.
"What? Can"t be connected? Did this dude go to make more trouble?"
Wei Shan murmured.
"What troubles?"
Qi Liangcai threw Wei Shan a glimpse.
According to Ye Xuan, he achieved the Gold level only the day before.
What troubles could he make if he achieved the Gold level only the day before?
Were there so many troubles Ye Xuan could make in this world?
