Chapter 26: Chapter 23: Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer_1
Even after racking his brains, the Yang Family Patriarch couldn't figure out who the genius admired by Li Youyan was. Yet, even if he exhausted his mind, he probably wouldn't have realized that Li Youyan's intended person was the 'Yang Chen' he had just looked down upon.
Li Youyan was interested in cooperating with the Yang family, who had the Dan Medical, and to be more precise, he wanted to cooperate with Yang Chen. In order to build a relationship with Yang Chen, Li Youyan put in a lot of effort. He didn't want to contact Yang Chen directly, so he found the Yang family head, indirectly trying to establish a good relationship with Yang Chen.
He sincerely believed that Yang Chen was a genius cultivated secretly by the Yang family, and the reason he seemed so useless was entirely an effect created by the Yang family to pleasantly surprise everyone. However, he had no idea that Yang Chen actually held no significant status in the Yang family.
Thus, this farce occurred.
Yang Chen, of course, had no knowledge of this matter.
Elder Yang was now frustrated by the situation. Although he didn't lose his temper in front of the Yang Family Patriarch, it didn't mean he wasn't angry.
"Sigh, Yang Chen, I didn't expect this to happen either. Usually, the Clan Leader pays more attention to Martial Arts than the Way of Alchemy, but he shouldn't have looked down on Alchemy so much," Elder Yang sighed with regret.
Yang Chen was also puzzled, but his demeanor was much calmer than Elder Yang's. He had experienced too many ups and downs in his previous life, so he wasn't easily defeated. He smiled and said, "Second Master, maybe Yang Chen's luck is not enough yet."
Seeing that Yang Chen didn't seem to be affected by the incident at all, Elder Yang was suddenly stunned: "Yang Chen, I was originally going to console you, but I didn't expect that you wouldn't take it to heart."
Yang Chen calmly said, "Second Master, when I initially lost the gambling battle and even had suicidal thoughts, I realized my mistake after failing to commit suicide. Now, I won't be so easily defeated."
"Good, well said. Life is full of ups and downs. Who hasn't experienced failure in their time? Being able to understand this is best. Past failures will only make you more mature, honing your mind like a solid copper wall and iron barrier. In contrast, what the other young members of the Yang family lack is failure," Elder Yang sighed with emotion.
What he said was true. Those young masters of the Yang family were all arrogant and disdainful, and what they lacked was failure.
Everyone needs failure, and too many people in the Yang family have not experienced it.
Only through failure can a person be reborn through fire and jump over the dragon's gate! 𝓯𝙧𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝓸𝓿𝒆𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝓶
Although Yang Chen didn't gain the approval of the Yang Family Patriarch, in Elder Yang's eyes, Yang Chen was still an uncut jade with infinite possibilities. After the conversation just now, Elder Yang's eyes sparkled even more: "Yang Chen, even though you didn't get the recognition of the Clan Leader, I won't let you down. If the family won't give you resources, I will!" novelbuddy.(c)om
"Second Master, this really isn't necessary," Yang Chen said, surprised and immediately refusing.
"Yang Chen, you don't need to refuse this. The Clan Leader's disregard for you today is also related to me. This is my compensation to you, to make myself feel better, so don't reject it," Elder Yang said, with an indisputable tone in his voice.
Seeing that Elder Yang's mind was made up, Yang Chen could only nod and agree.
He could see that Elder Yang was indeed full of guilt over what had just happened.
Soon, Elder Yang took out a large amount of alchemy materials to provide an excellent alchemy environment for Yang Chen, as compensation for him.
Yang Chen didn't refuse, and after getting these resources, he returned home and made a clear plan for them.
He didn't plan to use Elder Yang's heavenly materials and earthly treasures immediately but decided to wait until the materials from the Li Family Commerce Group arrived before making plans.
According to his current idea and Elder Yang's resources, along with the materials from the Li Family Commerce Group, with his ability, the medicinal bath he could create could even bring him up to the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer instantly. Unfortunately, due to the scarcity of resources, if he had enough resources, he could do even better.
"Now is not the time to rush. I can only wait for the resources from the Li Family Commerce Group to arrive," Yang Chen returned home, sat cross-legged on the bed, began to adjust his breath quietly, and gradually started cultivation.
...
Yang Chen trusted the Li Family Commerce Group's reputation, and sure enough, the resources arrived in a few days. What surprised Yang Chen was that the shopkeeper of the Li Family Commerce Group had changed. The new shopkeeper was the page boy who had served him respectfully when he visited the Li Family Commerce Group last time.
This page boy could be said to have turned over a new leaf, successfully becoming the shopkeeper of the Li Family Commerce Group, and enjoying his success.
However, he didn't become arrogant because of his promotion. He knew very well that the reason the former shopkeeper, Zhao Xiaowen, was ousted was because of Yang Chen.In the light of this, the little page boy dared not be negligent and said: "Young Master Yang Chen, these resources were gathered by our Chamber of Commerce according to your instructions in the past few days. They have been sent to you now."
"Oh, I must thank Manager Liu for making this trip personally." Yang Chen already knew the identity of this page boy and said with a faint smile.
"Not at all, not at all." Manager Liu didn't dare to put on airs in front of Yang Chen, lowering his head and bowing in response: "With the resources delivered, Elder Li Youyan from our Chamber of Commerce also has a personal message for Young Master Yang Chen."
This raised Yang Chen's eyebrows: "Oh, what's the matter, let's hear it!"
"It's like this, Elder Li Youyan will also personally attend this Yang family's Coming of Age Ceremony. He hopes that you can make a name for yourself at the ceremony and take this opportunity to discuss cooperation with the Yang family." Manager Liu lowered his voice.
Yang Chen nodded thoughtfully.
Soon, Manager Liu left. Yang Chen accepted these valuable resources and watched Manager Liu and the others leave with gears turning in his mind.
Quickly, he couldn't help but chuckle: "That Zhao Xiaowen, as the former manager of the Li Family Commerce Group, was giving me a hard time a few days ago, but now he's been replaced..."
With his wisdom, a little pondering led him to guess that Zhao Xiaowen's replacement was by no means coincidental.
"This Li Family Commerce Group intends to befriend me." Yang Chen muttered to himself.
If they didn't have such intentions, how could the Li Family Commerce Group replace Zhao Xiaowen and discuss cooperation with the Yang family during the Coming of Age Ceremony?
"It seems that my identity as a Dan Medical has indeed caught the attention of the Li Family Commerce Group." Yang Chen grinned, then shook his head and focused on the resources in the storage bag.
Seeing these resources, Yang Chen gained much confidence: "With these resources, making a medicinal bath to upgrade my strength to the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer will be a breeze."
When this idea crossed his mind, Yang Chen couldn't help but feel excited. He eagerly returned home, focusing on the resources sent by the Li Family Commerce Group.'
As for making the medicinal bath, Yang Chen naturally is a Master of Alchemy. With the resources in hand, he spent a day and a night completing the concoction.
Then, he directly immersed himself in the medicinal bath, starting the process of refining his body with its help.
This medicinal bath was more than ten times stronger than the previous one.
Given his current strength and cultivation level, Yang Chen found it hard to digest the medicinal power in the bath in a short time. So, he took his time soaking in the bath, absorbing the power bit by bit.
Time slipped away, and in the blink of an eye, seven days had passed...
On the morning of the seventh day, Yang Chen, who was immersed in the tub, suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes, and the water in the tub splashed out.
At this moment, Yang Chen laughed out loud: "Great! I've reached the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer, and there's even a faint tendency towards the Fifth Layer. This is truly amazing. It seems my talent exceeds even my expectations!"
He had originally thought that using this medicinal bath would barely get him to the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer.
Medicinal baths put high demands on one's body talent. For a person who can't step into the path of martial arts cultivation, no medicinal bath would suffice, no matter how strong the power.
However, Yang Chen's natural talent was extraordinary. Combined with the medicinal bath, he broke through the barrier to the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer, and even approached the Fifth Layer, achieving the peak of the Fourth Layer.
Having reached the peak of the Fourth Layer in one go, Yang Chen was overjoyed. At least this time, he had the ability to truly challenge others.
"Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer, I'm really looking forward to this Coming of Age Ceremony." Yang Chen grinned, revealing a smile.
Being looked at with colored eyes for a long time, even the most good-natured person would inevitably feel discontented.
During this Coming of Age Ceremony, he also needed people to change their perception of him.
