Chapter 5.2 : Killing Mercilessly
Although Yun Qing Yan had said it very casually, but the words struck the old steward like a bolt out of a clear sky. That was a matter that no one else could possibly know about besides himself.
And now, Yun Qing Yan had just revealed it all in just a few words.
“I do not doubt Grandpa Lin’s loyalty, but it is still not enough. As long as Grandpa Lin performs well from here on, not only will I cure you of your oil ailment, I will also give you power like what you’ve always dreamed of.”
The reason Yun Qing Yan had said that it was not enough was because the old steward had not done everything in his power to stop Yun Yue. If the old steward had tried to stop Yun Yue with no regard to his own life earlier, he would have at least held Yun Yue back for a couple of minutes more, till the Spirit Gathering Elixirs were completed.
Of course, loyalty where one pays no regard for his own life was not something anyone could do. Hence, Yun Qing Yan had not blamed the old steward that harshly.
“Yes, Young Master Yan!” The old steward cried out, his face highly moved, his belief in Yun Qing Yan unshakable.
“Dismissed!” Yun Qing Yan said as he waved his hand dismissively. Reactions like what the old steward was showing was no longer strange to him. As a Divine Emperor, he would most naturally have his own ways of manipulating people.
Moreover, what the old steward had just received, was Yun Qing Yan’s promise.
……
……
After returning back into his room, Yun Qing Yan placed the seventeen ruined elixirs back into the elixir cauldron. Although they were failed Spirit Gathering Elixirs, but putting them through another round of elixir cultivation, they could be turned into another type of pill.
The Scarlet Poison Pill.
As the name implies, the Scarlet Poison Pill is a lethal pill of poison.
A Scarlet Poison Pill if properly diluted, would be able to kill more than ten thousand adults.
Although revered as a Divine Emperor, Yun Qing Yan was not above employing the use of poison. From the way he saw it, using poison was sometimes cleaner and it takes less effort than using physical force.
One hour later, the ruined Spirit Gathering Elixirs had been recultivated into Scarlet Poison Pills.
Every one of those pills was brilliant red in colour, each one giving out a faint fragrance that was soothing and calming. It was hard to imagine that it was actually something that was so highly lethal and poisonous.
He then put the Scarlet Poison Pills into a bottle he had prepared.
Yun Qing Yan then took out the remaining fifteen Spirit Gathering Elixirs and poured them all down his throat.
If it was any other regular person with cultivation at the Star level’s third stage who gulped down so many Spirit Gathering Elixirs at one go, their bodies would have overfilled and burst into pieces.
But to the Divine Emperor Yun Qing Yan, fifteen Spirit Gathering Elixirs had not even filled up one part out of ten thousand of his body’s peak capacity.
With the elixirs in his body, Yun Qing Yan then sat down in his room to meditate.
And he had merely mediated, without even consciously trying to digest the effects of the Spirit Gathering Elixirs.
After the fifteen Spirit Gathering Elixirs went into his abdomen, they were automatically broken down very quickly, the robust effects of the elixirs systematically flowing into his Spirit Sea.
Three minutes passed.
The effects of the fifteen Spirit Gathering Elixirs were completely digested.
And Yun Qing Yan’s cultivation rose from the Star level’s third stage into the Star level’s fourth stage.
“Big Brother is coming in!” Yun Qing Yan’s gaze suddenly turned to look towards the yard outside. A few seconds later, the figure of Yun Xuan came running inside in a fluster.
“Brother Yan, I heard you killed Yun Yue!” Yun Xuan said the moment he opened his mouth, his face filled with worry.
“Brother Yan, you were too rash! Although Yun Yue is not a member of our Yun Family Clan, he is afterall still the Grand Elder’s…..”
“Big Brother, be at ease!” Yun Qing Yan interrupted Yun Xuan, his face indifferent as he said: “As long as the Grand Elder is not a fool, he will not stick his neck out for Yun Yue.”
Yun Yue’s original name was Chen Yue, a relative from the Grand Elder’s wife’s family. But because he grew up in the Yun Family Clan from a very young age, he changed his surname to take on the name Yun.
But even if he was surnamed Yun, it would never change the fact that he would never be a member of the Yun Family Clan.
The Yun Family Clan had the Yun Family Clan’s set of rules. Between those carrying the family name Yun, no matter how hard and severely they fought each other, when faced against any outsider, they would still stand united.
The duel between Yun Qing Yan and Yun Yang Qing, was the Yun Family Clan’s private matter. Even if the two of them were to literally go at each other’s throat, it would not concern Yun Yue even a dime.
Who does he think he is? Is he even qualified to stick his nose into the matter?
“You’re right. I might have thought too much into it!” Thinking about it again, he came to feel the same. If the Grand Elder was not that foolish, then he would not stand up for Yun Yue.
