Chapter Fifteen Old Hu

  Ye Chen's body was covered in blood, stiff and unresponsive. Ye Xue beside him was frantically shaking with grief. Chen Tao struggled to get up.

  The young man in the flower shirt hadn't expected a dead body to appear here, things were getting out of hand, but this dead person had nothing to do with him. The young man wasn't very worried either, he beckoned for the two anxious-looking bodyguards to back off a bit.

  The young man in floral clothes walked over, looking at the crying Ye Xue. The young man in floral clothes didn't have much of a mood to tease Ye Xue either, but with an attitude of acquaintance, he also didn't want to leave so dispiritedly. He turned around and asked Chen Tao: "Who killed him? I'll go help him take revenge!"

  Chen Tao's impression of the young man in floral clothes was extremely poor, but after hearing this sentence, his impression improved a lot. However, the scene where the young man in floral clothes had embarrassed Ye Xue was still fresh in his mind, so Chen Tao replied calmly: "No need, he's already dead!"

  "Brother!" Ye Xue was still crying in sorrow, Chen Tao looked at the flower-clothed youth who didn't seem to be making things difficult for him, so he lowered his body and pulled Ye Xue, "Xiao Xue, the dead cannot be brought back to life, let's take Ye Chen back instead!"

  "No! Brother won't die! Won't die! Brother won't leave me behind! Brother, wake up!" Ye Xue hugged Ye Chen and shouted loudly.

  "Your brother was pierced through the chest by a long sword, and after such a long time, it's very difficult to want to rescue him. I have a pill here that is refined from the inner elixir of a third-level demon beast, I don't know if it can save your brother!" The young man in floral clothes looked at Ye Xue who was crying in pain and then looked at Ye Chen, with some hesitation he took out a jade bottle from his bosom!

  "The elixir of the third-level demonic beast's inner dan!" Hearing the words of the young man in floral clothes, the surrounding audience couldn't help but take a deep breath, and their eyes revealed a strong desire. This gaze made the two bodyguards gather around the young man again, vigilantly guarding against the crowd.

  "Dan medicine?" Ye Xue's eyes flashed with excitement as she suddenly lifted her head, seeing the man who had somewhat disgusted her earlier. Her instincts wanted to refuse him, but thinking of her brother's current state, Ye Xue couldn't afford to think too much. As long as it could save her brother, Ye Xue didn't care about anything else.

  "Thank you!" Ye Xue said with gratitude, taking the jade bottle and pouring out the elixir inside. The elixir was round and smooth, emitting a faint fragrance that was not inferior to the third-level demon beast's inner alchemy refined elixir. Just smelling it made one feel comfortable all over, and Ye Xue's eyes lit up - such an elixir might really be able to save her brother.

  In the eyes of the crowd who were eager but didn't dare to act, Ye Xue stuffed the dan medicine into Ye Chen's mouth. Ye Chen's body was stiff and didn't even know how to swallow. Ye Xue circulated her internal energy, forming a thin layer of ice on her palm, which then transformed into water, hovering one centimeter above her palm.

  Ye Xue carefully mixed the water with the medicinal pellets and sent them into Ye Chen's body, after which it was just a matter of waiting slowly...

  The surrounding onlookers, who were originally watching the commotion, are still watching, but the content has changed. Originally, it was a spoiled brat teasing a little girl, but now it's the little girl saving her own brother. If not for the severe punishment brought about by the law enforcement team's deep penetration into people's hearts, this place would have probably turned into a chaotic battle long ago.

  However, the elixir refined from the third-grade demon beast's inner dan is not enough to save Ye Chen, who was pierced by an eighth-stage expert's sword. The hope in Ye Xue's eyes gradually disappeared, and a sense of despair slowly spread over.

  "It's beyond salvation, such severe injuries, even if a god came down, they wouldn't be able to cure it."

  "It's a pity, wasting such a top-grade elixir. If I had that elixir, I could have broken through to the sixth rank from the fifth rank."

  "What's the point of being a sixth rank, even the worst elixir refined from a third rank demon beast can give an eighth rank strongman a great chance to advance, giving it to you is simply a waste!"

  ……

  The surrounding onlookers were discussing, but there was no riot, and inside it was relatively quiet. The young man in floral clothes looked at the medicinal pill he had painfully taken out, which didn't work, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. He gritted his teeth and said to Ye Xue: "Or else, let me take your brother to my house and have Grandfather take a look to see if he can still be saved!"

  "Master!" The two bodyguards exclaimed in unison, their faces pale with shock.

  "I have my own way, don't worry about me!" The young man in floral clothes said with a wave of his hand.

  "Yes!" Looking at the determined face of their young master, the two bodyguards knew that they couldn't change this decision. They exchanged a glance with Chen Tao and Ye Xue, and immediately became even more vigilant in guarding against the people around them, as if everyone around them was an enemy.

  "Grandfather?" Tears streaming down her face, Ye Xue heard these two words and suddenly lifted her head, remembering what she was going to do earlier. Hu Grandfather! That's right, Hu Grandfather! Brother had said that Hu Grandfather wasn't simple, he must have been an extraordinary person when he was young. Hu Grandfather would definitely be able to save Brother. Thinking of this, Ye Xue hastily picked up Ye Chen and ran towards the city center.

  The law enforcement team would normally appear at critical moments, but today, even with Ye Chen covered in blood, no members of the law enforcement team appeared. Maybe they had something else to attend to, or maybe they arrived early but didn't show themselves. As Ye Xue carried Ye Chen and ran away, there was no one to stop them either.

  The young man in the floral shirt also wanted to follow and run, but was stopped by two bodyguards. He shouted loudly on the spot: "My name is Chen Xi, if you have any trouble, go to the Chen family to find me!"

  "Chen Family!" As soon as the words left Hua Yi's mouth, the people around him involuntarily took a step back. In this Star City, there were five major families: Ming, Su, Hong, Chen, and Mu. Each family wielded considerable power, capable of influencing many things in Star City. To ordinary people, these five families were like behemoths, not to be trifled with. Although fighting was forbidden within the city, who could guarantee that they would never venture out for their entire lives?

  But Chen Xi's words were basically nonsense to Ye Xue and Chen Tao now, the two people didn't listen at all. Ye Xue was holding Ye Chen and running, Chen Tao didn't know where Ye Xue wanted to take Ye Chen, could only follow Ye Xue, looking at Ye Xue's appearance still wanting to save Ye Chen, although this was unrealistic in Chen Tao's heart, thinking of Ye Chen and Ye Xue relying on each other for survival, it was better not to stop Ye Xue now.

  The city center is not far from here, Ye Xue hugged Ye Chen and soon arrived at the old library, "Grandpa Hu, Grandpa Hu......" Ye Xue shouted loudly.

  The old man in the library was dozing off, but when he heard Ye Xue's voice, he frowned and opened his eyes. He saw Ye Xue slightly stunned, but when he saw Ye Chen covered in blood, he suddenly widened his eyes, stood up, and a burst of overwhelming momentum erupted from him, causing Ye Xue and Chen Tao to stop abruptly in their tracks. The people reading books in the library all changed color, some even had an urge to kneel down.

  The momentum had just appeared and suddenly disappeared, and Ye Xue immediately felt that her arm was light, and her brother's body had left her. In a hurry, she took a look and found that at some point, she had been suddenly taken away by Hu Ye, who had appeared out of nowhere.

  "Uncle Hu, save my brother, save my brother..." Ye Xue pulled Uncle Hu and begged pitifully.

  "What's going on? How did Ye Chen get hurt like this!" The old man ran his hands over Ye Chen's entire body, his face turning extremely ugly.

  "Yè Chén went to the underground world to challenge...” Chen Tao said what he knew. The old man listened with a burst of anger, but when he heard that Róng Fēng was also dead, he slightly relieved and stroked Yè Chén again, looking serious, and said to Yè Xuě and Chen Tao: "Follow me!" He led the way towards the city lord's mansion in the center of the city.

  Those who were originally reading books in the library were shocked, never expecting that this old man, who was about the same as himself, would be so powerful. At the same time that Old Hu burst out with his momentum, many people in the city also sensed this momentum, and many people changed color. The heads of those families gathered all the people, and for a while, the wind and rain moved.
