Chapter 562: Mystic Gate Fellow Practitioners

Wei Hongye of the Heavenly Mystery Sect was already waiting here, and besides him, there was a middle-aged man wearing a cyan robe, and an old man wearing sunglasses and holding a string of jade beads in his hand.

The old man's eyes were likely blind, and judging by his attire, he should be a member of the Mystic Gate; the middle-aged man beside him was waving a folding fan, looking every bit the expert.

"Mr. Wei." Ye Qingning, Chen Yu, and Ye Qinglong walked in together.

Wei Hongye stood up to welcome them, smiling: "Miss Ye, Young Master Ye, let me introduce you two. This senior is Master Wu Xuan from Hunan Province, and this is Li Qing, Vice President of the Ningcheng I-Ching Association."

"Senior Wu, Fellow Daoist Li, this is the Miss Ye and Young Master Ye I mentioned to you both." Wei Hongye smiled, but suddenly, he saw Chen Yu behind them, his expression slightly stunned; he did not recognize Chen Yu.

"Miss Ye, I am Li Qing. I have long heard of the great name of the Shengjing Ye Clan. Greetings." The Li Qing wearing the cyan robe stood up and said with a smile.

These people had naturally heard of the name of the Shengjing Ye Clan, and Li Qing was still considered polite, but that old man, Wu Xuan, remained sitting there as steady as a mountain, playing with his jade beads as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Hello, Mr. Li. Hello, Wu Lao." Ye Qingning nodded slightly: "Mr. Wei, this is the Mr. Chen I mentioned to you before. We will be setting off to our destination together."

"So this is Mr. Chen?" Wei Hongye was slightly startled, and he cupped his hands: "Mr. Chen, I have long heard of your name."

"Hello, Master Wei." Seeing that Wei Hongye was reasonably polite, Chen Yu returned the gesture.

"Is this little brother also a fellow practitioner?" Li Qing looked at Chen Yu with surprise.

"Him? He is a doctor, a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor, very skilled." Ye Qinglong took over the conversation: "But he can also catch ghosts and such; his strength is quite good. With him coming along, our chances of winning will be higher."

"I couldn't tell. At such a young age, he is already a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine." Li Qing looked at Chen Yu with interest: "I know a few people in the Traditional Chinese Medicine world. I wonder which expert Mr. Chen is a disciple of?"

"I have no master. What I learned of Traditional Chinese Medicine was just a little superficial knowledge from when I was in school, not worth mentioning." Chen Yu smiled.

Just kidding, in this world's Traditional Chinese Medicine circle, the person capable of being Chen Yu's master probably hasn't been born yet.

"Heh, a little knowledge learned in school is indeed just superficial." Wu Xuan, who had been silent all along, spoke up: "Li Qing, I heard that this matter regarding the Ye Clan today is quite important."

"Since it is quite important, then why bring such an irrelevant person here? Wouldn't that lower our status?"

Chen Yu looked at this old man with surprise. When he first entered the door, this old man was sitting as steady as a mountain, full of the air of an expert, and the aura radiating from his body was also very powerful.

He had originally thought that such an expert would generally have a peaceful temperament, but this old man was afraid he was just arrogant and looked down on others.

"Wu Lao, you have misunderstood. This Mr. Chen is also one of our peers, I heard..." Wei Hongye hurriedly explained upon hearing this.

But Li Qing on the side spoke up, nodding: "That's right, Brother Wei. I, the dignified Vice President of the I-Ching Association, came to discuss matters out of respect for the Ye Family."

"If I were to discuss major events together with people who have no real talent or learning, I fear it would lower my own status."

"You also said it yourself, you are a 'vice' president." Chen Yu was not one to suffer a loss; since the other party had started the insults, he would not be polite either.

"You." Li Qing's expression changed. The more someone is in a deputy position, the more they taboo others mentioning this "vice" word. He raged: "What is your attitude?"

"What is my attitude? Am I relying on you for food? Are you paying my salary?" Chen Yu turned on his roasting mode: "Does it have anything to do with me that you are the Vice President of the I-Ching Association?"

"You were busy belittling me the moment we met; does that make you look high and mighty?" Chen Yu roasted Wu Xuan on the side as well: "Don't think that just because you have seniority and some qualifications, you can pull a long face and lecture others. Do I owe you money?"

"Presumptuous! How dare you be disrespectful to Senior Wu?" Li Qing was furious: "Today I must teach you a good lesson."

Li Qing retracted his folding fan and pointed at Chen Yu, shouting: "As a member of the Mystic Gate, I simply cannot stand you being so arrogant."

"Then I really must open my eyes and see. Go ahead, don't hold back at all." Chen Yu smiled.

"Then you better be careful." Li Qing was furious; Chen Yu truly did not put him in his eyes.

As Li Qing spoke, he flipped his right hand, and a Compass appeared in his palm. This Compass faintly carried a trace of Spiritual Energy; it was actually a Primary Grade Magical Artifact.

He held the Compass in one hand and lightly brushed over it with the other, then let out a violent shout.

One could see the Compass in his hand emitting a faint glow, and wisps of Original Power were released along with the Compass.

The expressions of the Ye siblings changed slightly. Of course, the two had never seen such a strange sight. After all, although they came from a great family, they were actually ordinary people, and naturally, they had not seen as much as members of the Mystic Gate regarding the scene of driving a Dharma Artifact to fight an enemy.

"Kid, you had better kowtow and apologize to me now, otherwise I will not be polite to you. Once my Dingfeng Plate is out, it must see blood." Seeing the expressions of the Ye siblings, Li Qing could not help but become even more smug.

Although his strength was decent and he was the Vice President of the Ningcheng I-Ching Association, so-called I-Ching is Metaphysics.

It's just that Metaphysics cannot be openly called Metaphysics nowadays, otherwise it would be promoting feudal superstition, so it hung the title of I-Ching.

But he knew in his heart how powerful the Shengjing Ye Clan was. Being able to show off in front of the Ye Clan and win their favor would be of great help to him in the future.

"Dingfeng Plate, a Primary Grade Magical Artifact, not bad." Chen Yu stared at the Dingfeng Plate in Li Qing's hand and nodded slightly.

A Mystic Gate practitioner who can possess a Dharma Artifact is already no ordinary person. Although the Original Power of the Dharma Artifact in this guy's hand is weak, it is quite good for bluffing people.

"Then why don't you bow your head and admit your mistake?" Li Qing said proudly.

"I also have a Dharma Artifact here, why don't you take a look?" Chen Yu suddenly smiled. He grabbed with his right hand, and a Jade Slip appeared in his hand. Chen Yu pinched a Sword Finger with his left hand and pointed at the Jade Slip.

This was the Jade Slip Nine Songs, snatched from Wuding; it was an Upper Grade Dharma Artifact, second only to a Spirit Tool.

One could see that following Chen Yu's point, with a hum, the Spiritual Light on the Jade Slip burst forth, the Jade Slip suddenly spread out, and a profound Talisman script emerged.

With a boom, these Talisman scripts twisted into a ball and fiercely attacked the Dingfeng Plate in Li Qing's hand.

Bang... Li Qing's figure seemed to have been hit hard. His body shook, and he retreated five or six steps in a row. At the same time, the Dingfeng Plate in his hand cracked with a click.

"You..." Li Qing was both shocked and angry. He had originally looked down on Chen Yu, but he never dreamed that the moment Chen Yu made a move, it would be a legendary Upper Grade Dharma Artifact.

One must know that Dharma Artifacts are divided into Upper, Middle, and Primary grades. In fact, the Primary Grade is the lowest grade. He had found a Primary Grade Dharma Artifact, and he was already the object of envy for everyone in the I-Ching Association.

But who would have thought that this inconspicuous kid would bring out an Upper Grade Dharma Artifact the moment he made a move, which shocked him beyond measure.

The Dingfeng Plate he was so proud of was simply trash in front of Chen Yu.

Before he could even catch his breath, Chen Yu had already put away the Jade Slip Nine Songs in his hand. He joined his Sword Finger and pointed out.

Two Talismans flew out from Chen Yu's hand, quickly circled Li Qing once, and then suddenly hid into the ground beside Li Qing.

Two rays of Spiritual Light rose, and a Yin Yang Fish pattern flashed and vanished under Li Qing's feet.

In an instant, Li Qing's vision went black, and he froze on the spot.

"Five Elements Gold Locking Array."

He stood on the spot, shocked and angry. The five-foot radius around him was another world; he stood within it but could not walk out of that five-foot range.

He stood on the spot, sometimes pinching his fingers to calculate, sometimes thinking bitterly, sometimes pinching out finger seals to point at the surroundings, striving to break this Five Elements Gold Locking Array in the shortest possible time.

"Jade Slip Nine Songs, Five Elements Gold Locking Array." Wu Xuan, who was playing with the string of jade beads in his hand, suddenly stiffened and turned his head to look at Chen Yu.

Although his eyes were completely blind, when he turned toward Chen Yu, it gave people the illusion that his eyes could see people.

"Not bad, blind in eyes but not in heart, your reaction is quite fast." Chen Yu smiled. This old man is not simple; he is several notches better than the Yin Yang master Duan Tianming he met last time.

"Good lad, so you are the descendant of an expert." Wu Xuan slowly stood up, leaning on a cane in his hand: "I wonder who your master is?"

"If I said I have no master, and everything I know now is self-taught, would you believe me?" Chen Yu smiled.
