Chapter 522: 522 You won’t, but I will!

An unverified method from the Meridian Refining Master Association of Tenglong Continent, and only the Chairman is a Heavenly-rank Pulse Refining Master, so Qian Sanyuan and others wouldn’t readily ask the Chairman to take action.

Moreover, Qian Sanyuan himself feels that his Meridian Refining Technique has already reached the peak of Earth Rank Advanced, only half a step away from the Low Level of Heavenly Rank, believing the effect to be almost similar.

It was for these reasons that Qian Sanyuan took it upon himself to act, but he did not expect the results to be so good. Miss Xue, who had been bedridden, not only made a recovery but also broke through directly.

"So, you guys didn’t believe in me!"

Hearing Qian Sanyuan say this, Yun Xiao suddenly realized, nodding his head, and combining his words, the latter’s face turned even more flushed.

By this time, Qian Sanyuan also realized his rash actions might have caused Miss Xue’s Innate Pulse Cutting to have some side effects, and as for these complications, he did not even know what they are, let alone how to resolve them?

"Forget it, it was an unintentional mistake, just be more careful next time!"

After understanding the details, Yun Xiao waved his hand and then said, "As for Miss Xue’s Innate Pulse Cutting, I have already promised to resolve it for her yesterday, so no need to worry!"

As his words fell, Yun Xiao turned and left the hall, leaving Qian Sanyuan and all the elders of Jade Pot Sect dumbfounded, unable to recover for a moment.

"Uh..., that, Vice Chairman Qian, Yun Xiao is young and unaware, if there was any disrespect, Yu Shu apologizes on his behalf!"

Seeing Qian Sanyuan’s strange expression, Yu Shu thought it was because Yun Xiao’s attitude had been bothersome and promptly clasped his fists in a salute.

"Tch, tch, young and unaware? Sect Master Yu Shu, this disciple of yours is far more cunning than his teacher!"

Qian Sanyuan seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment finally spoke words filled with emotion, leaving the people of the Jade Pot Sect unable to grasp the meaning behind his words.

"Don’t worry, I did overlook that matter, Yun Xiao’s reprimand is right!"

Seeing that Yu Shu and others were still somewhat flustered, Qian Sanyuan gave a self-mocking smile, which calmed them, then stood up and walked toward the door.

"Ah, came for official business but ended up being lectured by a youth, what kind of situation is this?"

As Qian Sanyuan reached the hall door, he muttered to himself, and a few in the hall who were Soul Experts naturally heard him; they exchanged glances at once.

Indeed, Qian Sanyuan came today aiming to persuade Yun Xiao to join the Meridian Refining Master Association, but unexpectedly, in just a few words, Yun Xiao led the conversation astray.

To an extent, Yun Xiao’s Meridian Refining Technique is indeed superior to Qian Sanyuan’s, and since even a well-written treatment method could be wrong, how could Qian Sanyuan still have the face to invite Yun Xiao?

"Sect Master, what should we do now?"

Great Elder Lu Zhan looked troubled. Frankly speaking, Vice Chairman Qian personally inviting today was much more impactful than Miss Xue’s visit yesterday.

After all, for these elders of the Jade Pot Sect, whether from the Medical Pulse or the Poison Vein faction, all are Meridian Masters, and compared to Xuanyin Hall, which wasn’t very clear on the details, they would prefer Yun Xiao to join the Meridian Refining Master Association.

Because joining the Meridian Refining Master Association is indeed the dream of every Meridian Master in the Hidden Dragon Continent, it’s just that before, they never had the opportunity.

How could a 70 or 100-year-old Spirit-grade Advanced Pulse Refining Master compare with a 17 or 18-year-old Spirit-grade Meridian Refining Genius? The potential of the two is utterly incomparable.

But Yun Xiao’s decision still made Lu Zhan and others feel somewhat regretful. What was that boy thinking? With such an opportunity right in front of him, he still unhesitatingly refused.

"Let it be, Yun Xiao has his own thoughts; let him do as he wishes!"

Yu Shu took a deep breath, then with a thought added, "Immediately send someone to inquire about the details of Yun Xiao’s passing the examination at the Lingtian Empire Meridian Refining Master Guild, and make sure to get detailed information!"

"Yes!"

Lu Zhan replied, and honestly, they were all intense curious about the news they just heard; they believed that if this news were to spread, Yun Xiao’s reputation would likely shine even brighter.

...

The night passed in a hurry.

The next morning, Baiyue City was still bustling as ever, and as the final decisive battles of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference were approaching, the number of Cultivators coming to the Xuanyue Empire was increasing.

All in all, there are only three matches left in this session of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, and these battles are undoubtedly the most spectacular part of the entire Conference, which no one would want to miss easily.

As Yun Xiao, who broke into the top four, naturally had a dedicated passage to the central plaza, even the entire Jade Pot Sect basked in Yun Xiao’s glory, occupying an excellent position.

Among the high seats, the gaze of ten people swept over the youth in coarse clothes who slowly walked into the plaza, their expressions slightly varied, especially Qian Sanyuan, who seemed rather indignant.

"Vice Chairman Qian must have failed, right?"

Xue Ningxiang, who usually didn’t talk much, unexpectedly was the first to speak, immediately drawing everyone’s attention to Qian Sanyuan.

"Sigh, not only did I fail, but I was also taught a lesson by that lad; my old face is completely thrown away!"

Qian Sanyuan was carefree and wasn’t afraid of losing face in front of these elders from Tenglong Continent, and upon speaking, it provoked curiosity and incomprehension from Gu Hua and Meng Liyang.

Is this not a genuine Earth Rank Advanced Peak Meridian Refining Master, and also the esteemed Vice Chairman of the Meridian Refining Master Association? Who would have such audacity to teach him a lesson?

Regarding Qian Sanyuan’s words about "that lad," everyone guessed it was Jade Pot Sect’s Yun Xiao, because otherwise Xue Ningxiang would not pay such attention.

"Miss Xue, I’m truly sorry, this matter was indeed too reckless of me. Once we return to Tenglong Continent, I will definitely ask the Chairman himself to intervene and remove your lingering effects!"

Thinking about Yun Xiao’s words from the previous night, Qian Sanyuan suddenly stood up, bowed slightly towards Xue Ningxiang, his words also brimming with utmost sincerity.

"Vice Chairman Qian, you’re too polite, you’re not to be blamed, I know it was an unintentional mistake!"

Xue Ningxiang naturally understood what was being referred to; she wasn’t unreasonable, considering that if it weren’t for Qian Sanyuan, she would still be bedridden.

"There’s no need to ask the Chairman to intervene anymore; Yun Xiao promised me the other night that once he advances to the Earth Rank as a Meridian Refining Master, he will take care of it personally!"

After a slight pause, Xue Ningxiang’s gaze returned to the distant figure of the youth in coarse clothes, her eyes glimmering, and her words leaving the onlookers bewildered.

Does Yun Xiao really possess such magical skills? After all, the Chairman mentioned by Qian Sanyuan is a true Heavenly Rank Meridian Refining Master. Could it be that Yun Xiao’s Meridian Refining Technique has surpassed even the Heavenly Rank Meridian Masters?

With this thought, Meng Liyang and the others shook their heads while forming a guess that perhaps Yun Xiao has deep research into innate pulse deficiencies, accidentally making breakthroughs that caught the attention of Qian Sanyuan and Xue Ningxiang.

If it were any other Meridian Refining Technique, such as Alchemy and Medicine Refining, perhaps this youth, who appears to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, couldn’t even match a mid to high-level Spirit-ranked Meridian Refining Master?

Hearing what Xue Ningxiang said, Qian Sanyuan couldn’t say much more. Even though he was highly confident in the Chairman, having witnessed Yun Xiao’s capabilities, he couldn’t be sure about treating an innate pulse deficiency.

After all, Xue Ningxiang’s innately severed pulse had been personally examined by the Chairman back then, culminating in helplessness; it was still dependent on the method provided by Yun Xiao to initially cure her.

...

High above on the platform, the intense discussions of these important figures couldn’t be heard by Yun Xiao below, and at this moment, a charming girl in a light red dress stood before him.

"What do you want?"

Looking at this girl who was intricately entwined with his life’s frustrations and whose eyes resembled those of his wife from a previous life, Yun Xiao felt an inexplicable irritation, his expression hardened as he voiced out.

"Yun Xiao, do we really need to end up like this between us?"

Xu Hongzhuang’s eyes swept with desolation, yet she still bit her lips and said these words, thinking about the past encounters with Yun Xiao, believing that this youth was not as heartless as he appeared.

Hearing this, Yun Xiao couldn’t help furrowing his brows. Honestly, he held no ill feelings towards Xu Hongzhuang, even considering her an ally under the alias Xiaolan for a time.

Unfortunately, the current Yun Xiao knew about the Lingyun Sect Master and the tragic annihilation linked to the Shang Family in the past, potentially including behind-the-scene orchestrations. How could he act as if nothing happened?

Even after hearing from Yu Qian that his mother might still be alive, his sister Yun Wei had certainly perished in that conflict.

And the thought of his abducted mother suffering through untold pains over these past few years fueled a deep-seated vengeance within him that couldn’t be erased, even unknowingly by Xu Hongzhuang, and certainly not leading to a marriage union due to her father’s misdeeds.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Yun Xiao didn’t want to entangle further with Xu Hongzhuang, and coldly replied, "If we meet on the arena today, I won’t show you any mercy!"

The blunt, heartless words deeply wounded Xu Hongzhuang, but the next moment, she took a deep breath and resolutely said: "You might not, but I will!"

After these words, Xu Hongzhuang turned away and walked a few steps, truly unsure of how to face this youth, who was nearly her husband.

With just a few words, even Yun Xiao felt somewhat moved. Xu Hongzhuang’s statement implied that no matter how important the championship of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference was, it could never outweigh the importance of you, Yun Xiao!

In the world of romantic entanglements, they are indeed inextricably intertwined and complex beyond measure!
