Chapter 21 Objective Achieved
Yu Tianyun took out a carefully prepared visiting card from the storage soul tool on his wrist, walked forward steadily, and handed it to one of the burly men. At the same time, he said politely, "Please trouble this brother to inform Senior Yang Wudi that Yu Tianyun, the grandson of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect Master, has come to pay a visit."
Upon hearing this, the burly man glanced at Yu Tianyun. He noticed Yu's imposing presence and extraordinary demeanor, especially the rare soul tool that further emphasized his noble status. The burly man became more convinced of Yu's identity and said in a deep voice, "Please wait a moment." With that, he turned and entered the room.
Another burly man remained steadfast at his post, meticulously guarding the gate. However, in his sharp gaze, he couldn't help but steal glances at Yu Tianyun out of the corner of his eye.
At this moment, deep within this magnificent mansion, a burly gatekeeper, holding a visiting card, hurried to the door of a house filled with the rich aroma of medicinal herbs. He hesitated for a long time before finally mustering his courage to speak: "Chieftain, someone has come to visit you!"
"Get out! I won't see you! Didn't I just say I'm refining medicine and not to disturb me?" A furious roar came from inside the house, like a thunderclap, making the surrounding air seem to freeze for a moment.
The shout plunged the room into a deathly silence. The burly gatekeeper broke out in a cold sweat, hastily wiping the large beads of sweat from his forehead. He hesitated, but finally steeled himself and cautiously said, "But...the other party is the grandson of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect's leader!"
"Bang!" A loud door opening followed, and an old man walked out of the house. It was Yang Wudi, the patriarch of the Po clan!
Yang Wudi was tall and upright, like a vigorous ancient pine tree, with a resolute face and distinct features as if carved by a knife and axe. However, several hideous scars on his bare chest added to his fierce appearance.
Yang Wudi coldly said to the gatekeeper, "Take him to the council hall. I'll be waiting for him there!"
"Yes, clan leader." The burly gatekeeper quickly replied, his feet barely touching the ground as he swiftly returned to the gate as if fleeing.
Led by the burly gatekeeper who had returned, Yu Tianyun quickly arrived at the council hall. Upon entering, he saw the old man with his back to him. Yu Tianyun immediately quickened his pace, approached, bowed slightly, and said with utmost politeness, "Junior Yu Tianyun greets Clan Chief Yang."
Just as Yu Tianyun approached, Yang Wudi slowly turned around. Facing the humble and polite Yu Tianyun, he also gave a slight bow and then said, "Young Sect Master Yu, there's no need to be so polite. My Yang family has received a lot of help from your sect over the years. Now that Young Sect Master Yu has come in person, if there is anything I can help you with, please just say so. My Yang family will definitely do our best to help Young Sect Master."
Upon hearing Yang Wudi's straightforward words, Yu Tianyun was delighted. "Good, that's exactly what I've been waiting for." He then slowly said, "Clan Chief Yang is indeed as generous as the legends say. To be honest, I have come to visit you today because I have an important matter that requires your help!"
Yang Wudi's face stiffened slightly, feeling somewhat speechless. "No, I was just saying that to be polite, but you're really not being polite!" However, he still managed to force a smile on his stiff face and said, "In that case, Young Master Yu, please speak frankly."
Yu Tianyun's smile grew even brighter, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. He said, "I've long heard that Senior Yang is devoted to alchemy, so you must be very familiar with all kinds of rare medicinal herbs. I've come today to request a list of rare herbs!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Wudi breathed a slight sigh of relief. He had genuinely feared that Yu Tianyun would make exorbitant demands, imposing arduous and difficult requirements on the Yang family. Immediately, Yang Wudi agreed, "That's easy. Young Sect Master Yu has truly come to the right place. My Yang family may not be able to boast about anything else, but when it comes to alchemy and herb identification, no one dares to claim to be second to none!"
Hearing Yang Wudi's confident words, Yu Tianyun became even more expectant.
Yang Wudi was always decisive and efficient. Without asking Yu Tianyun what he needed the herb list for, he readily took out a booklet from his storage soul tool and handed it to Yu Tianyun, thinking that he could get rid of this troublesome person as soon as possible so that he could continue refining medicine: "This is all the information about rare herbs of our Po clan. Take a look."
Yu Tianyun was overjoyed and quickly took the document, eagerly opening it to examine it. At the very last line of the table of contents were the words "Immortal Herbs." He immediately flipped to the corresponding page to view them.
It has to be said that the Po clan really has some skills. In Yu Tianyun's memory, this book contains detailed records of all the immortal herbs that have appeared in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and even many immortal herbs that have not appeared in the original work!
After reading it, Yu Tianyun was overjoyed and carefully put the list of herbs into his storage soul tool. Then he solemnly made a promise: "Tianyun thanks Clan Chief Yang. If there is anything Tianyun needs in the future, please tell me directly, and Tianyun will do his best to help."
"Young Master Yu, you're too kind. It's nothing, a trivial matter compared to the assistance your sect has given us!" Yang Wudi said with a smile.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but pause for a moment. "Why does this kid's words sound so familiar? Isn't this similar to what I just said?" Thinking this to himself, his face darkened slightly, and his brows furrowed a little.
The look in his eyes as he gazed at Yu Tianyun darkened slightly.
Yu Tianyun was unaware of Yang Wudi's thoughts, but his promise was indeed sincere. In his view, the most crucial step in obtaining the immortal herb did not lie with Dugu Bo, the "herb garden security guard," but with obtaining the knowledge of the immortal herb from Yang Wudi!
Seeing Yang Wudi's strange gaze, Yu Tianyun didn't think much of it and sincerely thanked him again and again: "If Chief Yang ever needs my help in the future, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
"If Young Master Yu has nothing else to say, I shall take my leave. I am currently refining medicine and cannot stay any longer! Otherwise, the entire batch of medicine will be ruined!" Yang Wudi's polite words clearly revealed a hint of impatience, as he was eager to see his guest off as soon as possible.
Yu Tianyun, not wanting to be rude, cupped his hands and took his leave: "It was truly my oversight to disturb Clan Chief Yang this time. I hope Clan Chief Yang will not take offense. I will not disturb Clan Chief Yang's alchemy any longer! Farewell."
"Young Master Yu, please wait. Someone, see the guest out," Yang Wudi said, slightly excited. He looked as if he had finally gotten rid of the trouble.
After a month, Yu Tianyun finally completed the most important part of his plan. After leaving the Yang residence, he found a comfortable hotel in Cangyun City to rest for the night. The next day, he immediately set off back. Along the way, Yu Tianyun was filled with thoughts, envisioning how he could achieve greater breakthroughs and accomplishments on his cultivation path with the help of this precious knowledge of medicinal herbs.
