Chapter 562: Chapter 562: The Forever 18-Year-Old Duan Yanming

A good friend?

Cheng Yuan’s eyes lit up. ”Is it my second brother?”

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

The voice of Liao Kai, the Commander of the Old Dragon King’s Imperial Guard, rang out.

”The Old Prince and Prince Duan have arrived!”

Led by Liao Kai, Duan Yanming walked in with an old man who bore a strong resemblance to him.

The old man was tall, with a ruddy complexion and a steady gait, moving with vigorous strides. However, his eyes were somewhat cloudy.

Cheng Yuan activated his Double Pupil and looked, letting out a soft sigh.

The Old Prince was on the verge of death. If he hadn’t been taking old ginseng daily to prolong his life, he would have likely already passed away.

Cheng Yuan was deeply moved. To help him, his second brother had even invited the Old Prince.

This was a heavy favor!

Cheng Yuan strode forward and bowed deeply to the Old Prince. ”This junior greets the Old Prince.”

The Old Prince quickly helped Cheng Yuan up. ’After I’m gone, the Dali Duan Dynasty might still need this young man’s protection. I can’t accept such a formal gesture from him.’

”You must be Xiaoyuan, yes? Truly, a hero emerges from the young! To think a mere Martial King can instantly kill a Martial Emperor, a rank above!”

Cheng Yuan smiled faintly and took out a Four Patterns Essence Enhancement Pill and a Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill. ”Old Prince, this is a small gift this junior has prepared for you. I insist you accept it.”

”Since it is a token of Xiaoyuan’s sincerity, then I shall accept it.”

The Old Prince assumed they were Three Patterns or lower Elixirs, so he casually reached out and took the two Elixirs.

The Old Prince glanced at the two Elixirs with little interest, and then he froze!

His voice began to tremble!

”A Four Patterns Essence Enhancement Pill? A Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill? No! Absolutely not! These are far too valuable! I cannot accept them! Xiaoyuan, you should keep them for yourself!”

Cheng Yuan took out a Small Jade Bottle, poured out a handful of Elixirs, and said with a grin, ”Old Prince, I have plenty of these. Please, accept them without worry!”

Nearby, Duan Yanming trembled with excitement. ’Bringing Father out of seclusion was a brilliant decision!’

’With the Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill, Father can extend his life by at least five years!’

’In five years, I’m confident I can break through to Half-Step Martial Saint. Then the Dali Duan Dynasty will finally have the foundation to secure its place in the world.’

”Father, this is a token of Xiaoyuan’s goodwill. Please accept it.”

”In that case... I shall shamelessly accept Xiaoyuan’s kind gesture! From this day forward, no matter what Xiaoyuan needs, my Dali Duan Dynasty will go through fire and water for him, without hesitation!”

Li Baizhan and Yang Qianhuan stepped forward to greet the Old Prince.

”Greetings, Old Prince! Greetings, Brother Duan!”

Duan Yanming returned the pleasantry. ”Hello, Brother Li. Hello, Brother Yang.”

The Old Prince laughed. ”Baizhan, Qianhuan, no need for such formalities. Where’s that Old Huangfu? It’s been too long since I’ve played a few rounds with him! This time, we must play until the sky turns dark.”

”Our teacher was invited to see an old friend. He probably won’t be back until the ceremony begins.”

The Old Prince looked slightly regretful. After all, he hadn’t seen his old friend in over a decade. ’I wonder if he has broken through his Heart Demon?’

Duan Yanming, worried about his father, quickly reminded him, ”Father, please take the Elixirs quickly!”

”Alright.”

Under the four men’s eager gazes, the Old Prince swallowed the Four Patterns Essence Enhancement Pill and the Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill in one gulp.

Normally, a Four Patterns Essence Enhancement Pill would have little effect on a Martial Saint. However, the Old Prince’s vitality and blood essence had decayed so severely that his power had dropped to the level of a Half-Step Martial Saint.

Thus, the Four Patterns Essence Enhancement Pill provided him with a significant boost.

Of course, the pill that helped the Old Prince the most was the Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill!

BOOM! BOOM!

Two distinct streams of heat rose from the Old Prince’s lower abdomen, each clearly separate from the other.

One stream surged into his Meridians, completed a Great Cycle, and entered his Dantian. For the first time in a long while, the Old Prince’s Dantian became full and abundant!

Of course, this was only a temporary fullness. Without a subsequent infusion of True Essence, it would quickly dissipate.

The other stream of heat entered his blood vessels, circulating to every corner of his body!

The Old Prince felt a pleasant warmth spread throughout his entire body. Nourished by the heat, his aging cells seemed to have been given a new lease on life!

The Old Prince’s physical functions improved dramatically, as if he had become twenty years younger in an instant!

The Old Prince slowly began Cultivating, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi rapidly surged into his body!

A look of ecstasy appeared on the Old Prince’s face. His cultivation speed had returned to its peak! If his luck was good, he might have a chance to become a Second Grade Martial Saint within five years!

If that happened, his lifespan would increase again, and he could protect the Dali Duan Dynasty for at least another ten years!

Soon, one Great Cycle was complete.

The Old Prince exhaled a long, turbid breath. His pupils were no longer cloudy, but sharp and full of spirit!

The four men sensed the change in the Old Prince, and delighted expressions appeared on their faces.

A chorus of voices rang out: ”Congratulations on returning to your peak, Old Prince!” and ”Congratulations, Father!”

The Old Prince let out a hearty, unrestrained laugh, then turned to look at the four juniors. Only then did he notice the change in Li Baizhan and Yang Qianhuan, and his expression darkened.

”Yanming, you, Baizhan, and Qianhuan all became Martial Emperors at the same time. Those two are already Half-Step Martial Saints—and invincible ones at that—while you are still stuck at Martial Emperor Peak! It seems you have truly been slacking off, wasting too much energy on women.”

Duan Yanming gave a bitter smile and admitted his fault. ”Your teachings are correct, Father. Yanming will definitely cultivate diligently! I will strive to break through to Half-Step Martial Saint as soon as possible.”

Li Baizhan and Yang Qianhuan exchanged a smile.

”Old Prince, you’ve misunderstood Brother Duan! It’s not that he was slacking. We were only able to break through to Half-Step Martial Saint because we took the Elixirs Xiaoyuan gave us.”

Hearing this, Duan Yanming looked at Cheng Yuan with puppy-dog eyes.

Before Duan Yanming could even speak, Cheng Yuan took out three Elixirs. ”Second Brother, I prepared your share long ago. Go on and become a Half-Step Martial Saint.”

Li Baizhan and Yang Qianhuan weren’t having it!

”Xiaoyuan, how come Brother Duan gets three, and we only got two?”

Cheng Yuan gave an awkward smile.

”Well, you see, my two senior brothers, your foundations are strong. Second Brother, ahem... is a bit weak. He needs a Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill to get a boost. If I gave you a Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill, you’d definitely get a nosebleed...”

PSHFFT.

Li Baizhan and Yang Qianhuan burst out into unkind laughter, and Duan Yanming’s face turned bright red.

Duan Yanming stubbornly retorted, ”Xiaoyuan, what nonsense are you spouting? I’m not weak! I’m not weak at all! I’m even stronger than an 18-year-old! I don’t want a Four Patterns Rejuvenation Pill!”

Cheng Yuan laughed. ”Alright, alright, Second Brother is forever eighteen!”

THUD. The Old Prince kicked Duan Yanming.

Duan Yanming’s legs gave out, and he stumbled, nearly falling to the ground.

The Old Prince scolded, ”You can’t even stand straight, and you still dare to say you’re not weak? You’re a disgrace! Now hurry up, take the Elixirs and cultivate!”

”Yes, Father...”

Duan Yanming awkwardly took the three Elixirs, stuffed them into his mouth, and then an expression of utter astonishment and delight appeared on his face!

The increase in his Power was one thing, but the crucial part was...

Duan Yanming had to attend to seven or eight wives every day, and he had been finding it difficult to keep up.

But now, Duan Yanming felt his vigor was overflowing. He could definitely restore his masculine glory!
