The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 2060 - 2049: Moved to Tears with Gratitude
Ye Chenfeng spoke with such certainty.
Except for Yun Muling, who blindly believed him, everyone else had mixed emotions; some shook their heads with amusement, others fumed with more anger. Even Yun Rong himself sighed inwardly, knowing he was already at the end of his rope, having taken many life-extending elixir pills in the past.
Life-extending elixir pills only work the first time they’re taken, and now Yun Rong has become immune to them. Even powerful alchemists were helpless, let alone a young man at the Divinity Transformation Realm.
Nevertheless, Yun Rong truly felt indebted to the direct lineage of the Yuns of Spirit Continent in his youth, so he was extremely fond of Yun Muling. Looking at the hopeful Yun Muling, he said: "Alright, Muling, let your friend give it a try! Regardless of whether he can prolong my life, your friend is a valued guest of the Yuns, and if anyone dares trouble him, have them leave the house at once." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Yun Muling had already rushed forward to support Yun Rong, feeling the protection of her ancestor, she said with a distressed expression, "Ancestor, you will definitely be fine."
Under Yun Muling’s guidance, Yun Rong entered the room in the courtyard.
Of course, Ye Chenfeng followed him in.
As for Yun Gaozhuo, the Family Head, and the Young Master Yun Yutang, they followed with sullen expressions, while Yun Muling’s grandfather Yun Guangping and father Yun Zhiyi walked behind them, faces filled with anxiety.
After entering the room.
Ye Chenfeng asked Yun Rong to remove his shirt, prompting Yun Yutang to reprimand: "Kid, stop pretending to be mystical. Leave now, and we Yuns may let this slide."
Yun Gaozhuo said to Yun Rong, "Ancestor, do you really want to indulge this nonsense? You are crucial to the Yuns right now; your body can’t take reckless strain. I will definitely find a way to extend your life."
Yun Guangping said to Yun Muling, "Muling, take your friend and leave! Apologize properly to the Family Head."
Pale-faced, Yun Rong waved his hand impatiently, exclaiming: "What? Does my word no longer count for anything? Everyone, shut up!"
Although Yun Rong also thought Yun Muling was being reckless, he still listened to Ye Chenfeng and removed his shirt. He kindly said to Ye Chenfeng, "Young friend, don’t mind them. Just help me; no pressure. I know I’m not going to live much longer."
Under the angry gaze of Yun Gaozhuo and others, Ye Chenfeng walked behind Yun Rong and gave Yun Muling a reassuring look, placing his hand on Yun Rong’s back, sensing the vitality within him.
After sensing for a while, Ye Chenfeng furrowed his brows tightly, realizing Yun Rong’s vitality was nearly depleted; he might die completely in ten days to a month.
Old White Wu Fengxian’s voice echoed in Ye Chenfeng’s mind: "Young one, this man’s vitality is exhausted, but cultivators have hidden vitality within them. Even at the moment of death, this part won’t be triggered."
"And you practice the Divine Blood Art, which can trigger hidden vitality. According to Old Black and I, if we trigger it, he should live for two more years."
"You just need to circulate the Divine Blood Art’s energy into this man’s body, triggering his hidden vitality."
After listening to Old White, Ye Chenfeng said, "Senior, if I’m not mistaken, you probably have about ten days to a month left."
Yun Yutang coldly interjected, "Kid, Yun Muling probably told you that, right?..."
Yun Rong glared fiercely at Yun Yutang, stopping him mid-sentence, and said to Ye Chenfeng, "Young friend, you’re right; I indeed don’t have much time left."
Ye Chenfeng held a favorable impression of Yun Rong and said, "Senior, I can help extend your life by two years."
Ye Chenfeng placed his hand on Yun Rong’s back again and continued: "Senior, no preparations are necessary, just relax."
Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s confident words, Yun Gaozhuo and others were puzzled; even the most foolish would avoid boasting at this time, let alone Ye Chenfeng with only Divinity Transformation Realm strength. Could Ye Chenfeng truly have a solution?
Yun Rong’s emotions fluctuated in his heart, and at this moment, Ye Chenfeng’s Divine Blood Art began circulating, its energy gradually flowing through his palm into Yun Rong’s body, slowly triggering Yun Rong’s hidden vitality.
Feeling the growing vitality within, Yun Rong trembled slightly. Who wants to die if they can live?
Initially, only Yun Rong felt the increasing vitality, but with time, everyone saw his complexion turning rosier, realizing the vitality emanating from him.
As time passed, minute by minute.
Sweat beads formed densely on Ye Chenfeng’s forehead.
At some moment, Ye Chenfeng withdrew his hand, his face looking somewhat pale, for triggering someone else’s vitality was extremely energy-draining.
At the moment Ye Chenfeng withdrew his hand, Yun Rong’s face lit up with disbelief and excitement, his withered hands clenched into fists, and he laughed "Haha" loudly. Sensing a significant recovery of vitality, at least extending his life by two years, he muttered, "Two more years is already very good for me."
Turning around to look at Ye Chenfeng, Yun Rong said, "Young friend, I must thank you. I didn’t expect you to possess such heaven-defying means."
Feeling the significant return of vitality in Yun Rong, those present could judge that his continued life for two more years seemed plausible.
Among them, Young Master Yun Yutang directly approached Ye Chenfeng.
"Thud!"
He kneeled before Ye Chenfeng, "Bang! Bang! Bang!" He kowtowed thrice forcefully, his eyes devoid of former hostility and anger, replaced by genuine gratitude. He sincerely said, "Brother, I erred earlier; I apologize here. If you still feel upset, feel free to hit me hard. I, Yun Yutang, won’t hold any grudges."
Earlier, Yun Yutang promised to kneel and kowtow if Ye Chenfeng extended Yun Rong’s life, and now, he followed through earnestly without pretense, genuinely appreciating Ye Chenfeng.
After all, Ancestor Yun Rong was incredibly vital to the Yuns, a stabilizing force. If Yun Rong died, the Yuns’ influence would plummet significantly, not to mention Yun Rong’s deep familial ties with Yun Yutang and others.
Though Yun Gaozhuo didn’t kneel, he bowed deeply to Ye Chenfeng, sincerely saying, "Young friend, we were rude earlier; henceforth, anything related to you is a matter for the Yuns."
Subsequently, Yun Gaozhuo apologized to Yun Muling, saying, "Muling, I hope you won’t blame me; the importance of the Ancestor made me act rashly. Please forgive me."
Rising from the ground, Yun Yutang also addressed Yun Muling, saying, "Sister, sorry, whatever happens, you’ll always be my sister, and I’d like to see who dares bully you."
Since arriving at Central Continent’s Yun house, Yun Gaozhuo and others of the direct lineage treated Yun Muling and her kin fairly well. Only due to the Ancestor’s situation were they troubled, and Yun Muling was not one to hold grudges, she said, "Family Head, brother, you don’t need to apologize. I know you concern yourselves with the Ancestor’s safety."
Watching these unfolding changes, Yun Guangping and Yun Zhiyi finally showed smiles; Ye Chenfeng, whom Yun Muling brought back, undoubtedly alleviated the Yuns’ crisis.
Yun Rong admonished, "Why are you all standing idly? Quickly arrange a grand feast for this young friend; I’m delighted today. From now on, this young friend can visit freely; any idle gossip, and you’d better leave the Yuns immediately."
