Chapter 547: 547 Unique ways to return favors

"Eh! Eh! Eh!"

Such a scene left Qian Sanyuan at a loss for words. He blurted out three meaningless syllables and clumsily caught the Heavenly Breath Pill, a trace of resentment even flickering in his eyes.

Is this Heavenly Rank Elixir, the Heavenly Breath Pill, as common as cabbage in the eyes of this girl in green?

Qian Sanyuan was well aware that if those bigwigs of Tenglong Continent knew he possessed a Heavenly Breath Pill, they would probably break down the doors of the Meridian Refining Master Association.

Indeed, Qian Sanyuan wasn’t wrong; this Heavenly Breath Pill, unprecedented in Tenglong Continent, seemed as ordinary as cabbage to Yun Wei.

The plane they were on was different, and naturally, so were their perspectives. It’s like how an Earth Rank Elixir on Hidden Dragon Continent would also be treated as a Supreme Treasure, fiercely fought over.

Although Yun Wei herself was not a Meridian Refining Master, her teacher, Elder Xuan He, was— and not just any ordinary master but a top-tier one, even stronger than a Meridian Master at the Peak of Holy Rank.

For the inhabitants of Li Yuan Realm, offending Elder Xuan He was unthinkable not only because of his extraordinary strength but also due to his unparalleled Meridian Refining Technique.

Thus, a mere Heavenly Breath Pill was just something casually given to his disciples by Elder Xuan He, and certainly, disciples of someone like Elder Xuan He would not rely on elixirs to advance by Great Ranks, which would be putting the cart before the horse.

Qian Sanyuan was momentarily unsure what to say. He had originally acted just to save his own face; helping Yun Xiao was just an incidental matter. Yet, he had not expected such a lavish reward.

If he had known in advance that Shen Xingmou was a Heavenly Rank Expert, perhaps even if he were lent a bit more courage, he wouldn’t have dared to make a move—this was truly ignorance being bliss.

As vice president of the Meridian Refining Master Guild, he believed that with this Heavenly Breath Pill, he could definitely break through to the Heavenly Rank in an extremely short time and reach the same level of cultivation as the chairman.

This venture to the Lower Realm was truly worthwhile. At this moment, Qian Sanyuan also realized why Xuanyin Hall and the Meridian Refining Master Guild had offered such generous terms and yet Yun Xiao was still unwilling to join; it turns out there was a far greater power backing her.

A sister at the Heavenly Rank Third Realm, and a mentor of unfathomable strength backing that sister, Qian Sanyuan knew well that the petty squabbling of the Tenglong Continent probably wouldn’t catch Yun Xiao’s eye.

What Qian Sanyuan didn’t know was that at the moment Yun Xiao won the championship at the Hidden Dragon Conference, he himself didn’t know that Yun Wei was still alive, much less that his sister had grown so powerful.

"Little brother, hold on a moment. It’s better to owe fewer favors!"

Yun Wei didn’t pay attention to Qian Sanyuan, who was clinging to the Jade Bottle. She turned her head and spoke, then with a slight movement, she stepped through the air and directly arrived at a certain spot beneath the platform.

There lay two elders, one of whom was Meng Liyang of Demons Mountain in Tenglong Continent, who had made a move against Shen Xingmou but was slapped away by the latter, nearly dying a violent death.

Slap, slap, slap...

Yun Wei didn’t say much. As she moved her arms, it seemed she patted the back of Meng Liyang a few times. It appeared to be a sort of Meridian Array, yet not quite a real Meridian Array. In any case, it looked odd to some Meridian Refining Masters.

However, in the next moment, no one had much more to think about. Everyone’s gaze turned towards Meng Liyang simmered with intense heat., even including isolated individuals like Gu Hua and Wu Tong from the northern high platform.

Boom!

A majestic aura burst forth from Meng Liyang, and instantly, his previously debilitating injuries disappeared. In their place emerged a vitality several times stronger than before, full of Meridian Qi.

"Early Stage of Earth Bending Realm!"

Whether it was Qian Sanyuan on the platform or Gu Hua and Wu Tong above, they all clearly knew that in that instant, Meng Liyang, who had been at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm, had forcefully achieved a breakthrough to the Early Stage of the Earth Bending Realm.

These big shots of Tenglong Continent from the Lower Realm, with the exception of the anomaly Qian Sanyuan, were almost all at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm like Meng Liyang, a typical occurrence in previous Countries Hidden Dragon Conferences.

But now, after just a few light pats from Yun Wei, Meng Liyang’s injuries had healed and he achieved a breakthrough in an instant—how could that not make people like Gu Hua and Wu Tong envious?

At this moment, many bigwigs from Tenglong Continent felt a hint of regret, a stark contrast to their earlier relief, wondering if they had acted as decisively as Qian Sanyuan and Meng Liyang, whether they could have received such a fortune?

In fact, previously, upon seeing both Meng Liyang and Qian Sanyuan successively heavily injured, people like Gu Hua and Wu Tong felt fortunate, knowing well that if they took the stage, their fate would only be the same as those two.

Who knew that by turning the tides, the unchallenged Shen Xingmou would know when to back down. Yun Xiao’s suddenly appearing sister turned out to be a Heavenly Rank Expert.

Qian Sanyuan was given a Heavenly Breath Pill, the breakthrough to the Heavenly Rank Third Realm was just around the corner, and even Meng Liyang achieved a breakthrough in an instant. It would be utterly impossible to say that others did not feel regret.

"Thank you, Miss Yun Wei!"

Meng Liyang’s breakthrough happened exceedingly quickly. As soon as he opened his eyes, sensing the healed injuries within his body and the surging Meridian Qi, like the mighty Yangtze River, he immediately fell to the ground in gratitude, his appreciation beyond words.

It is known that Meng Liyang had been stuck at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm for over a decade. After reaching the Earth Rank Third Realm, even small breakthroughs would typically take years, certainly not as easy as those at the Spiritual and Mortal Ranks.

Finally breaking through from the stagnation of over a decade at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm, Meng Liyang’s mood was indescribable, and he also felt immensely fortunate for his previous "wise" decision.

"Just returning a favor, no need to be polite!"

Yun Wei remained fairly composed, as she said, she did not want Yun Xiao to owe more favors, even though those who intervened didn’t do it solely for Yun Xiao’s sake, more to maintain their own dignity. However, Yun Xiao had indeed incurred these favors.

As a supreme prodigy from the Li Yuan Realm, Yun Wei couldn’t stay in the Lower Realm for too long. Although she had previously said she’d protect Yun Xiao for a lifetime, she knew that it was ultimately impossible.

The Continent had its own rules; a top-tier figure from a high Plane descending to a lower one was understandable only for unavoidable reasons. Long-term grandstanding and staying could lead to sanctions.

After a soft hum, Yun Wei repeated the process, placing her hand on the body of Xuanyue Country’s King, and in the next moment, Xuan Haoran also broke through.

Known that Xuan Haoran had been stuck at the Peak of Spirit Vein Realm for decades, with the two-hundred-year limit approaching, he had always thought he would never break through to the Earth Rank Third Realm.

Yet, by such a fortuitous opportunity, an involuntary action, a fight without knowing the opponent’s strength, led to such a pleasant surprise. Xuan Haoran was at a loss for words to describe his emotions.

The lifespan of a cultivator at the Spiritual Rank Three Realms is only two hundred years, while Earth Rank Third Realm can reach five hundred. It can be said that Yun Wei’s slight effort not only allowed Xuan Haoran to break through but directly added three hundred years to his lifespan at its near end.

"Miss Yun Wei, I... I..."

Xuan Haoran was so excited he became incoherent, a feeling he had never imagined, as he had been merely waiting for death these past years, waiting for his final day.

For the King of Xuanyue Empire, Yun Wei naturally had no impression. She only knew the favors owed by Yun Xiao, which she intended to repay one by one.

Helping a cultivator at the Peak of Spirit Vein Realm breakthrough to the Early Stage of Qi Seeking Realm was just a small effort for Yun Wei, even simpler than helping Meng Liyang breakthrough.

"Um!"

After another soft hum, Yun Wei moved swiftly, and then two more breakthrough auras soared into the sky. However, this time, the surge did not come from humans.

One violent aura emerged from the Blood Winged Fire-Eyed Lion, which was already on the verge of Seventh Rank. At that moment, it had truly become a Seventh Rank Vein Demon.

A Seventh Rank Vein Demon, equivalent to a human cultivator in Qi Seeking Realm, typically had much stronger combat capabilities than a human of the same level. It was believed that even the newly advanced Xuan Haoran would not be a match for the Blood Winged Fire-Eyed Lion.

Another aura came naturally from Chi Yan, previously at the advanced level of Fifth Rank, and under Yun Wei’s intervention, directly broke through to the low level of Sixth Rank, equivalent to the Early Stage of Spirit Vein Realm for humans.

Thus, everyone who had assisted Yun Xiao or was a Vein Demon after Shen Xingmou’s emergence received a breakthrough, truly engendering envy from others.

However, this envy was just hindsight; under the dominance of Shen Xingmou at that time, even the leaders from Tenglong Continent were helpless, let alone the cultivators from the Hidden Dragon Continent.

Unseen by others, there was a young man in a brocade robe, his eyes filled with a deep resentment. This man was Xuan Jiuding, the Crown Prince of Xuanyue Empire.

Previously in the arena, Xuan Jiuding was subjected by Yun Xiao’s Absolute Spirit Stabilizing Pulse Hand, forever unable to break through to the Spirit Vein Realm, almost completely cutting off his eligibility to become the next Sovereign.

But Xuan Jiuding still harbored a slim hope, reliant on his powerful Empress Mother. However, now that Xuan Haoran broke through to the Early Stage of Origin Seeking Realm within Earth Rank Third Realm, his last glimmer of hope burst like a soap bubble.

With Xuan Haoran’s breakthrough to the Early Stage of Qi Seeking Realm, not to mention the increase of three hundred years in lifespan, his inherent power was probably beyond the Empress’s manipulation, and his position as the future Sovereign was no more.
