Time flew.
"Uncle, it's time for us to go back."
Su Yan stood in front of the gate with Feng Lanyun behind her, staring at a black carriage in front of the gate.
Face grim, Su Yin said, "I can't believe the Yu Clan actually managed to hold on!"
He had been waiting for a long time for Yu Can to come to him in person, apologize to him, and make all kinds of promises in the hopes that he would change his mind.
However, Yu Can didn't come as he had hoped.
The grand meeting was about to begin. He should go back and make some preparations.
Indeed, he couldn't delay any longer.
The tip of Su Yan's eyebrows rose slightly as she said, "I don't think the Yu Clan is holding on. Perhaps they don't need us anymore. I'm afraid the Su Clan has lost them. "
Unlike her uncle, Su Yin, she often wandered around the Yu Clan while her uncle was cultivating and waiting for the grand meeting.
She had seen the recent changes in the Yu Clan members, guest elders, and reverends.
At first, everyone in the Yu Clan had been anxious. Whether it was their clansmen, guest elders, or reverends, they had all sighed with worry.
Some of the foreign dignitaries and foreign dignitaries who weren't members of the Yu Clan were already preparing to leave the Yu Clan.
Then, one day, the worry and worry on the faces of the Yu Family clansmen disappeared completely.
Then, the few guest elders and reverends who had been the most vocal were forcibly sent away by Yu Can, and their relationship with the Yu Clan was dissolved.
Those who had stayed were the ones who hadn't complained when the Yu Clan had been suppressed by the Su Clan.
Soon, those people regained their composure, just like the Yu Clan members.
It was as if they didn't need to worry about the sales of their medicinal plants anymore.
"What are you talking about?" Su Yin went blank for a moment before asking, "You don't think that other clans or forces in the empire have accepted their medicinal plants, do you? We've already spoken. Who would dare? "
That was exactly what he was confident about.
The Su Clan had monopolized the entire medicinal plant business in the Silver Moon Empire for nearly a hundred years.
Since Su Yin had expressed his stance on behalf of the Su Clan, none of the medicinal plant clans or forces in the Silver Moon Empire would dare to go against the Su Clan's will and make secret deals with the Yu Clan.
"In any case, I think the Yu Family has found a solution." Su Yan was very calm. "Unfortunately, this is Dark Moon City, not our Su Family's territory. Otherwise, I would've been able to investigate everything that happened in the Yu Clan in the past few days. "
Su Yin frowned as doubts arose in his heart.
"Whether it's Yuan Lianyao or the Zhao Family, they're both deliberately hiding something." Su Yan thought back to the unusual situation that had occurred at the Yu Clan's residence in the northern part of the city, and suddenly felt that this small Dark Moon City might actually be hiding many secrets. "Let's go. I can't stay here for too long. We'll find out about the Yu Clan's situation sooner or later. "
Su Yin nodded helplessly.
The Lin Clan and the Su Clan, two of the top ranked clans in the empire, had suffered losses in Dark Moon City and the Yu Clan.
…
Yu Town.
Yu Yuan was exhausted. Lying in the temporary refining room, he looked at the ashes of the fire crystals and felt the surging heat. Even his temples were throbbing.
"Young master Yu?"
Ning Ji called out softly from outside.
"Come in, come in," Yu Yuan said casually.
Ning Ji barged into the small refining room and found that it was a mess. All kinds of herbs, liquids, and charred fuel were scattered everywhere.
"You've worked hard," Ning Ji praised sincerely.
Recently, Yu Yuan had been refining Origin Spirit Pills with the Yu Clan's herbs and flowers as if he had gone crazy. He had almost reached the point where he didn't eat or drink.
He had watched with his own eyes as one Origin Spirit Pill after another was refined and taken away by Yu Li, who had exchanged them for Brilliant spirit stones from the Yuan Clan and the Zhao Clan.
Ning Ji was full of admiration for this young master of the Yu Clan.
"Your grandfather has spoken. He said that the spirit stones and Origin Spirit Pills in Yu Clan's storehouse are enough for the clan to live a good life for a while." Ning Ji's heart ached for him. "You can rest here.
"Also, the imperial pageant is about to begin. Your grandfather wants you to return to the city to prepare."
"Got it."
Yu Yuan answered lazily as he lay on his back.
Recently, he had been so engrossed in refining Essence Spirit Pills that he forgot everything else. On one hand, it was because the Yu Clan was indeed in dire straits, and they needed a large number of spirit stones to tide over their difficulties.
On the other hand, his medicine refining skills had become much rusty after his reincarnation.
He needed to find the feeling again through simple Meridian Opening Pills and Origin Spirit Pills.
He had to get used to the feeling of touch, details, and patterns with his new hands.
Refining Origin Spirit Pills again and again made him feel a little bit of the feeling he had when he was still an apprentice refining medicine with spirit herbs.
For alchemists, the feeling they had when refining medicine was very important.
If he felt something was wrong, it was best not to even start, lest he waste precious herbs and fail to refine them.
"The people from the Su Clan have left Dark Moon City." Ning Ji continued, "They didn't find anything. Both the Yuan Clan and the Zhao Clan are keeping their mouths shut."
"They can hide it for a while, but not forever." Yu Yuan slowly sat up and said, "The Yuan Clan and the Zhao Clan won't be able to digest all of those Origin Spirit Pills. The Su Clan will also be suspicious and arrange for people to secretly investigate. Sooner or later, they'll find out that the Origin Spirit Pills came from our clan. "
Ning Ji's expression changed. "Medicine refining is the foundation of the Su Clan."
"I know what you're worried about." Yu Yuan nodded. "I hope we can delay the time it takes for the Su Clan to find out the truth. And I'll hurry up and find a new solution. "
"The Su Clan will never allow anyone to threaten them in medicine refining!" Ning Ji saw through it clearly.
In the Silver Moon Empire, the lifeline of medicine refining was strictly controlled by the Su Clan.
For a hundred years, anyone who dared to confront the Su Clan in this aspect had met with a miserable end.
If the Su Clan learned that the Yu Clan could refine Origin Spirit Pills independently and secretly sell them at a lower price, even the Su Clan's patriarch would be alarmed.
They would definitely eliminate the Yu Clan at all costs.
That alchemist hiding in the Su Clan only had two choices.
He could either die or become a member of the Su Clan.
…
Two days later.
In Yuan Lianyao's mansion, Yu Yuan, Zhao Yafu, Yu Feifei, and the other members of the Yuan Clan, the Zhao Clan, and the Yu Clan were brought here by Yu Hu and Zhao Xi.
They were going to participate in the upcoming grand meeting of the younger generation under Yuan Lianyao's personal guidance.
"Brother Yuan."
Yu Feifei, who had a bit of baby fat, stuck to Yu Yuan all the way and chattered non-stop.
She had overheard the late-night conversation between her father and her aunt, Yu Hu, and learned that the Yu Clan's previous predicament had been resolved because of Yu Yuan.
Because she had just entered the Spirit Nurturing stage, she hadn't been allowed to participate in the competition between the three realms.
Therefore, although she had heard of Yu Yuan's deeds, she had rarely seen him in person.
Now that she knew that the spirit stones and the Origin Spirit Pill her aunt had given her were all made by Yu Yuan, she naturally admired Yu Yuan from the bottom of her heart and wanted to get closer to him.
His aunt, Yu Hu, was happy to see this.
She had a feeling that Yu Yuan didn't fit in with the other juniors of the third generation of the Yu Clan after he woke up.
Her nephew had only interacted with Ning Ji, Yu Wei, Yu Can, Yuan Lianyao, and Zhao Zhenghao.
Huang Bin, the only one who had said more than a few words to him, had been beaten to death on the spot.
Yu Li had a feeling that Yu Yuan was sometimes too mature and lacked the vigor of a young man. Thinking that the grand meeting was about to begin, she naturally hoped that he could communicate more with his sister.
"Don't be so lifeless every day. All you think about is cultivation and scheming. You're like an old man." Seeing that he was talking to Yu Feifei half-heartedly, Yu Hu couldn't help but scold him angrily. "Feifei is your sister. Remember to protect her. Don't let her be in danger."
"Okay," Yu Yuan said woodenly.
"Big Brother Yu Yuan, you promised my father and grandfather that you'd take care of me as well," Zhao Yafu chimed in and looked at him with a smile, waiting for him to agree.
Yu Yuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "You've already entered the Golden Hall stage."
After successfully devouring dragons, Zhao Yafu's suppressed cultivation base had improved by leaps and bounds.
Not long after she swiftly entered the initial-stage of the Golden Hall Realm, she had a feeling that she could even step through the intermediate-stage of the Golden Hall Realm without facing any bottlenecks in a short period of time.
"It's all thanks to Big Brother Yu Yuan." Zhao Yafu's smile grew even sweeter. "Anyway, I'll stick close to you during the grand meeting."
Many members of the Yuan Clan and Zhao Clan in the surroundings were speechless.
They didn't know why Yu Yuan, the most powerful expert of Dark Moon City's third generation, trusted Yu Yuan so much.
"Alright."
Yuan Lianyao, who had been talking for most of the day, paused for a moment and said, "Juniors, let's go and bid farewell to Dark Moon City."
