Invincible Divine Sword

Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Sun Rises from the West

However, by the time Yang Xiaotian and the others arrived at the Green Lotus Tavern, it was already fully seated.

Just as Yang Xiaotian and his companions were about to search for seats in frustration, they heard someone exclaim with surprise, “Divine Yang!”

Divine Yang!

Hearing this familiar address, Yang Xiaotian looked over.

He saw that Gu Xi, the prince of the Ancient Sword Kingdom, was sitting by a window and waving at him excitedly with a broad grin.

Seeing that it was Gu Xi, Yang Xiaotian smiled and walked over with everyone.

“Divine Yang!” Gu Xi stood up to greet Yang Xiaotian warmly, inviting him and his company to take seats.

After Yang Xiaotian sat down, he introduced his parents, Yang Chao and Huang Ying, among others, then smiled and asked, “Are you also here to participate in the Empire Pharmacist Competition?”

Seeing Gu Xi in the Imperial Capital was quite a surprise for him.

Gu Xi laughed and said, “My alchemy level is not even half full. How could I dare to make a fool of myself in the Imperial Capital? I knew that Divine Yang would definitely participate. I’m here to see how you win the championship.”

Yang Xiaotian shook his head and didn’t continue on this topic, asking instead, “How long have you been in the Imperial Capital? Do you have a place to stay? If not, you are welcome to stay at my residence.”

Gu Xi felt a warmth in his heart and gratefully said, “Thank you, Divine Yang.”

Afterward, Yang Xiaotian summoned the tavern’s waiter and ordered twenty jars of the finest Green Lotus Liquor.

Since the first grade was already sold out, Yang Xiaotian could only order the second grade.

Soon, the liquor and dishes were served.

Just as Wu Qi had said, the Green Lotus Liquor was very enjoyable to drink. One sip seemed to open up all the pores in the body.

Perhaps because he was accustomed to his own brew, Yang Xiaotian always felt that the Green Lotus Liquor lacked something special.

Everyone was drinking merrily.

After a satisfying meal, Yang Xiaotian settled the bill, and just as he and the others were leaving the tavern, Gu Shaozong was walking towards Green Lotus Tavern with a pretty young woman.

The woman was Li Qianqian from the Green Lotus Tavern, and also the daughter of Li Jianghu.

The two were good friends.

“I heard that Brother Gu has been urgently in need of an Innate Sword Spirit?” Li Qianqian asked. “Shall I have the people from Green Lotus Tavern also help Brother Gu inquire about it?”

Gu Shaozong nodded and smiled, “Thank you, that would be great!”

“Between you and me, there’s no need for formalities,” said Li Qianqian, shaking her head.

Thinking of the superior Innate Sword Spirit that Yang Xiaotian possessed, Gu Shaozong felt bitter resentment and said, “Once I win the first place in this Alchemist Competition and take over the Empire Pharmacist Hall, I will definitely revoke Yang Xiaotian’s Pharmacist status!”

Li Qianqian nodded. She had also heard about how Yang Xiaotian refused to trade his Innate Sword Spirit for the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God and chased Gu Shaozong away.

She said, “When Yang Xiaotian was in Tiandou Imperial City, he led his men into the Great Tiandou Alchemist Hall, injured a number of Pharmacists, and stole many rare medicinal herbs from the hall.”

“Such a person who disregards the law should have been expelled from the hall a long time ago.”

“A person like that wearing a Pharmacist’s robe is a disgrace to all of us Pharmacists!”

Yang Xiaotian and Gu Xi, along with their companions, walked out of the tavern and happened to overhear Gu Shaozong and Li Qianqian’s conversation from a distance.

Wu Qi and the others, upon hearing Li Qianqian say that Yang Xiaotian wearing a Pharmacist’s robe was a disgrace to Pharmacists, were all filled with anger.

“My young master wearing a Pharmacist’s robe is a disgrace to Pharmacists? In my opinion, you are the disgrace to the Pharmacists of the Empire!” Liu An couldn’t help but retort angrily.

Gu Shaozong and Li Qianqian suddenly looked up.

“Yang Xiaotian!” Gu Shaozong’s expression darkened.

As soon as Li Qianqian realized that the person before her was Yang Xiaotian, her beautiful eyes turned cold, “You are Yang Xiaotian! Who allowed you to come to our Green Lotus Tavern? From now on, you and everyone with you are banned from entering our Green Lotus Tavern!”

Gu Shaozong said to Yang Xiaotian, “Yang Xiaotian, this young lady is Miss Qianqian from the Green Lotus Tavern, and the tavern belongs to her.”

Yang Xiaotian glanced at Li Qianqian and said indifferently, “The Green Lotus Liquor is tasteless to drink. From now on, even if your Li Family begs me, I will not enter your Green Lotus Tavern.”

“My Li Family will beg you in the future?” Li Qianqian burst into laughter upon hearing this, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, “Yang Xiaotian, do you think you are the Divine Dragon Ancestor of our Divine Dragon Empire?”

Backed by the Green Lotus Sword Deity, the Green Lotus Tavern was untouchable even by the top ten Supreme Sects within the Divine Dragon Empire.

In the entire Divine Dragon Empire, the only people that the Green Lotus Tavern needed to be wary of were the Divine Dragon Ancestor and that person from the Sky-Stepping Sect.

Now, Yang Xiaotian had actually said that in the future, the Li Family would beg him, no wonder Li Qianqian thought it was laughable.

Gu Shaozong also shook his head and said, “Ignorant.” Having said that, he turned to enter the Green Lotus Tavern with Li Qianqian.

“Do you really think you can win the championship of the Pharmacist Competition?” Yang Xiaotian suddenly spoke up.

Gu Shaozong was startled for a moment, then replied with disdain in his eyes, “If I can’t win the Pharmacist Competition, you think you, a mere Martial King Realm practitioner, can?” He laughed and said, “Yang Xiaotian, you, a Martial King Realm practitioner, actually dared to sign up for the Empire Pharmacist Competition. If I were you, I would have already hidden in a hole in embarrassment.”

“Just imagine, in tomorrow’s Pharmacist Competition, everyone can concoct Profound Level Elixirs, yet you are the only one who can’t. Wouldn’t that be utterly ridiculous?”

Yang Xiaotian looked at Gu Shaozong, “You’ve never seen me perform alchemy, how would you know that I can’t concoct Profound Level Elixirs?” After speaking, he left with the rest of his group.

Li Qianqian watched Yang Xiaotian’s departing figure, shook her head, and smiled, “What an idiot! A Martial King trying to concoct Profound Level Elixirs.”

Gu Shaozong laughed and said, “Unless the sun can rise from the west.”

Yang Xiaotian returned to the Azure Dragon Residence, sat cross-legged on the Cold Jade Bed, and cultivated the Primordial Dragon Art.

The Black Tortoise Martial Soul and Black Dragon Martial Spirit floated behind him, devouring the spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens.

After days of cultivation, the changes in his Black Tortoise Martial Soul and Black Dragon Martial Spirit became more and more astonishing.

The tortoise shell of the Black Tortoise Martial Soul was covered with densely packed runes, pulsing with light.

The Black Dragon’s body was enveloped in incredible golden flames.

Around the golden flames, Dark Power churned tumultuously, like an endless Dark World.

Yang Xiaotian had never heard of a Black Dragon with golden flames before.

The night finally faded away.

The morning sun illuminated the land.

The entire Imperial Capital was seething with excitement.

A surging throng of people.

Although they had expected a large crowd, when Yang Xiaotian and the others stepped out of the Azure Dragon Residence and saw the immense throng before them, they were stunned.

“How many people are there? Tens of millions?” Luo Qing looked at the endless sea of heads and felt parched.

Seeing the dense, impassable streets ahead, Yang Xiaotian had no choice but to let out the Black Flood Dragon King to clear the way.

With the Black Flood Dragon King clearing the path, Yang Xiaotian and his companions finally managed to reach the Imperial Capital Plaza with great difficulty.

Imperial Capital Plaza was also packed with people.

Just as Yang Xiaotian and his group were making their way forward, they heard a commotion from the crowd. They saw a group of experts from the Sky-Stepping Sect approaching from a distance, and wherever they passed, formidable figures stepped aside.

Long Xingtian was following behind Zhao Jinzhou, the ancestor of the Sky-Stepping Sect, walking into the Imperial Capital Plaza. Suddenly, he spotted Yang Xiaotian among the crowd and his eyes filled with a murderous intent.

Since Yang Xiaotian had purchased the Azure Dragon Residence, although Long Xingtian hadn’t been sleeping on the streets over the past few days, the discomfort of cramming himself and Zhu Xuan and others into a small courtyard was almost unbearable.

Zhu Xuan also spotted Yang Xiaotian at that moment, and his eyes turned frosty. He transmitted his voice to Long Xingtian, “After the Pharmacist Competition is over, we’ll kill Yang Xiaotian, and the Azure Dragon Residence will still be ours.”

Long Xingtian nodded. They had gone through various channels and spent a hefty sum to hire the third-ranked assassin on the hit list, Shadow Night Demon, to assassinate Yang Xiaotian.

The Shadow Night Demon, who could even successfully assassinate those in the first level of the Saint Realm, meant that Yang Xiaotian was sure to die this time!
