Noon the next day.
Outside the royal city.
Looking from a distance, the entire royal city of the Northern Star Territory is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and its momentum is extraordinary.
Yu Wenyan looked at everything around him through the car window, although the scene now was different from when he was sent away.
However, the broad river flowing outside the royal city is still flowing, as if it was exactly the same as ten years ago.
Yu Wenyan clearly remembered that it was a snowy morning in winter that year. After her mother begged the domain lord to no avail, she had no choice but to accompany him outside the city and hold him tightly in her arms.
After a long time, after his mother told him that he should take Xuan Meng, who was still young at the time, from now on, he was pulled away by a group of guards, and he and Xuan Meng were also put on the carriage to the Arctic Medicine Palace.
Yu Wenyan's last memory of his mother only stayed in the crack of the carriage door that he could never open...
Now, ten years have passed.
However, he returned here in a carriage, but his mother would never appear again outside the royal city.
At some point, Xuan Meng's little hand had already touched Yu Wenyan's palm.
"Although I can no longer remember what happened back then, this river seems to have not changed at all."
"Yes, she certainly won't change."
Xuan Meng knew that Yu Wenyan was feeling very disappointed right now, so all she could do was try to comfort Yu Wenyan so that he could face all this calmly.
In Yu Wenyan's view, the reason why this river does not change may be because it contains all the desperate and painful tears of her mother.
It's just that although times have changed now, due to the special talent of Yu Wenyan's life soul, he can never let go of the sadness and hesitation in his heart.
When she heard Yu Wenyan say this, Xuan Meng didn't want to let him fall into the depression that he couldn't escape, so she continued to speak softly.
"After we pay homage to our mother, can we leave here together?"
Xuan Meng's words finally made Yu Wenyan no longer depressed, because of course he would have to face his past with a new attitude.
At the same time, Xuan Meng is willing to regard his mother as her mother at this time, so how can Yu Wenyan not know her thoughts.
Immediately, Yu Wenyan clenched Xuan Meng's little hand and replied with a determined expression.
"OK!"
At this moment, the carriage slowly stopped, and Huang Jian's voice came from the window.
"Master, Miss Xuanmeng, we are here. The Territory Lord has been waiting for a long time."
Hearing this, Yu Wenyan and Xuan Meng opened the car door and slowly walked down the stairs.
I saw two rows of guards in brocade robes holding spears standing under the gate of the royal city not far away, and in the center of the guards stood an old man alone.
He looked to be about sixty or seventy years old, but an old man of his age would never have the body and spirit like him.
Perhaps it is because over the years, the Northern Star Territory has continued to expand outwards, and as the Territory Lord, he will naturally take the lead and be battle-hardened.
Therefore, although Yu Wenhai is now old, his body and bones are still strong and strong, and his cultivation has also broken through to the fourth level of the stars.
But when he first saw Yu Wenyan and Xuan Meng stepping out of the carriage, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
Because, based on his cultivation, he quickly sensed that Xuan Meng was actually a strong man at the peak of the Soul Realm!
Based on Yu Wenhai's intuitive judgment, Xuan Meng's age is definitely not more than 20 years old, so how could she have such an amazing talent for cultivation? Could it be that another peerless genius has appeared in this Dan Realm?
While Yu Wenhai was deep in thought, Huang Jian brought two people to him.
"Seeing the Territory Lord, these two are Master Yu Wenyan, the deacon of Dan Pavilion, and Miss Xuan Meng, the owner of Fangxin Yaoxuan."
Yu Wenhai was slightly startled after hearing Huang Jian's introduction, and then said to Yu Wenyan with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Deacon."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wenyan just bowed slightly and replied calmly.
"I've met the Territory Lord."
"Um!"
After Yu Wenhai returned the gift, he turned his gaze to Xuan Meng who was standing aside, and saw him speaking with admiration in his eyes.
"When did such a young and unparalleled genius appear in the Dan Realm? Girl, you are only at such an age, but you already have the cultivation strength at the peak of the Soul Realm. It seems that I am really ignorant."
When Xuan Meng heard Yu Wenhai's words, an inexplicable disgust suddenly surged in his heart.
Because she knew very well that Yu Wenhai admired force very much, so she sent Yu Wenyan, who was unable to awaken his life soul and practice cultivation, to the Palace of Medicine.
Now that so much time has passed, his character has not changed at all.
So, Xuan Meng snorted and said coldly.
"I only know some cultivation techniques, and I can barely be considered a cultivator. How can I expect to become a cultivation genius?
Besides, there are tens of millions of crouching tigers and hidden dragons on Yuanhun Continent who are stronger than me. If the Territory Lord said this, wouldn't it be a shame for the little girl? "
After hearing what Xuan Meng said, Yu Wenhai's face became a little ugly. After all, it was ridiculous for the leader of his side to be embarrassed in front of a little girl.
However, Xuanmeng didn't intend to shut up and just continued to speak.
"I have never been interested in cultivation matters, so please forgive me, Territory Lord.
It's just that this time we come to the Northern Star Territory in person, we can't come back empty-handed. I just hope that we can complete the deal we have agreed on as soon as possible. If other things are not important, there is no need to discuss it too much. "
At this time, Huang Jian on the side couldn't understand why Xuan Meng was so indifferent to the Territory Lord. She was not like this before.
So, in order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Huang Jian immediately stepped forward and said to Yu Wenhai.
"Lord, the master and Miss Xuanmeng have been a little tired after a long journey. Why don't I take them to the palace to rest first, and then hold a banquet for them in the evening."
When Yu Wenyan heard Huang Jian's words, he nodded slowly and said.
"I am indeed a little tired after traveling long distances in the past few days. I hope that the Territory Lord will forgive me. We should wait until the evening to discuss everything."
When Huang Jian heard that Yu Wenyan started to speak for him, but Xuan Meng did not say more, so he quickly turned to Yu Wenhai and asked for instructions.
"Region Lord, please give me instructions."
Although Yu Wenhai felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this, he was the overlord of the party after all, so he still had some tolerance for others.
Besides, Xuanmeng was indeed just a child in his opinion, so it was completely understandable that she had come all the way from the Dan Realm and suffered some grievances on the way, and was in a bad mood at the moment.
So, I just heard Yu Wenhai say with a smile.
"Haha, in that case, let's invite the two distinguished guests to the palace for a short rest, and then we can discuss other matters during the dinner."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wenyan immediately cupped his fists and bowed to answer.
"Thank you very much, Territory Lord."
After saying that, he and Xuan Meng returned to the carriage.
After Yu Wenhai watched the two of them get into the car, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, but this smile disappeared in a flash.
Then, he turned around and jumped up, climbed onto his horse with great agility, and walked towards the royal city.
After Yu Wenyan and Xuan Meng sat down, the carriage slowly drove towards the royal city.
But Yu Wenyan in the car looked at Xuan Meng opposite with a curious expression.
"You want to ask me why I lost my temper, right?"
Xuan Meng spoke first before Yu Wenyan could speak.
Just listen to Yu Wenyan sigh and reply.
"You want to take it out on me."
"Yes, I just don't like that all he cares about is the strength of others. You are his biological child. Has he never thought in his heart that there is still family affection in this world?"
Xuan Meng said angrily at this time.
However, after hearing Xuan Meng's words, Yu Wenyan shook his head and smiled.
"In addition to wanting to vent your anger on my behalf, you are even more worried that I won't be able to control my emotions after seeing him. That's why you deliberately got angry so that he would focus all his attention on you."
When Xuan Meng saw that Yu Wenyan had explained everything clearly, she could only say it with a sweet smile on her face.
"I just don't want you to keep all the pain in your heart."
"Haha, with you by my side, the situation is actually not that bad."
Yu Wenyan's calm expression made Xuan Meng feel very happy, because it at least showed that his heart was strong enough to face all this calmly.
So Xuan Meng said happily.
"Okay, but now that I've lost my temper, it's not that easy to calm down."
When Yu Wenyan heard Xuan Meng's words, he was stunned. He didn't know what else Xuan Meng wanted to do, but he thought it must be to get some justice for the suffering he had suffered for so many years.
Therefore, although Yu Wenyan was a little helpless about Xuan Meng's idea, he did not object because he felt that even if Xuan Meng deliberately wanted to make things difficult for them, it was understandable.
At this time, Yu Wenhai, who was riding a war horse far ahead, looked at Huang Jian beside him with a surprised expression.
"You mean he really wants that much money?"
"Yes, I didn't expect it to be so difficult to refine the soul-nurturing pill at first. At the same time, I also inquired about it in the pill field. The soul-nurturing pill is indeed priceless."
Huang Jian truthfully reported to Yu Wenhai all the news about the soul nourishing pill that he had heard in the Dan Realm, but Yu Wenyan's final decision still exceeded their expectations.
As the overlord of one party, Yu Wenhai never expected that his entire Northern Star Territory would have no merit in the eyes of this Dan Pavilion deacon.
Except money, of course!
When Yu Wenhai fell into silence, Huang Jian said to him with some uncertainty.
"Lord of the Territory, maybe we can promise to provide some help to Miss Xuanmeng's Heart Medicine Pavilion in exchange for part of the remuneration required by the deacon to refine the soul nourishing pill."
"Oh? Will they have such needs?"
Yu Wenhai asked with some confusion.
Huang Jian replied immediately.
"Although this is just the general's guess, I am confident that as long as we sincerely discuss with the master, we will have a chance to persuade him."
"Why?"
"Because according to the last general's observation, the deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion is extremely accomplished in alchemy. Therefore, besides money, we have something else that may be able to impress him."
Huang Jian looked quite proud when he said this, because he was sure that no alchemy master could resist such temptation.
After hearing Huang Jian's words, Yu Wenhai nodded slightly and smiled.
"Yes, it seems that we captured the Medicine King's Palace back then, and it was destined to come in handy today."
However, when Yu Wenhai talked about the Arctic Medicine Palace, he seemed to think of something in his mind, but in the end, he didn't think of anything...
