Chapter 311 Speech
As they walked toward the gathering area, the atmosphere between them was warm and lively.
The gathering had taken a lively turn, and as Shen Yuan faced his challengers, he couldn't help but feel a thrill of excitement. This was just the beginning of a new chapter in his journey, and he was ready to embrace it fully.
As the group approached the informal gathering, the crowd parted slightly to allow the esteemed figures to pass.
Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, Bing Rong, and Yun Xian headed towards the area designated for the elders—a section raised slightly above the rest, adorned with ornate seating and a view overlooking the entire giant courtyard.
Chen Yue and Zhao Lian followed closely behind their masters, Huo Rong and Bing Rong, their lively chatter softening as they neared the more formal atmosphere of the elders' area.
Before parting, Chen Yue glanced back at Shen Yuan, giving him a playful wink. Zhao Lian offered a small, polite wave before turning to follow her master.
Left alone amidst the bustling crowd, Shen Yuan took a moment to scan the area.
His sharp eyes observed the mingling disciples, their gazes often flickering towards him with curiosity or expectation. His presence, even without any deliberate attempt to command attention, naturally drew all eyes.
At the center of the courtyard, a small raised platform stood empty, clearly reserved for something significant.
Shen Yuan's lips curled into a faint smile as he made his way toward it, his confident strides parting the crowd effortlessly.
Conversations quieted as everyone turned to watch, anticipation thick in the air.
Once he reached the center, Shen Yuan stopped, his figure enhanced by the golden glow of the setting sun.
He looked around, his gaze calm yet piercing, meeting the eyes of disciples and elders alike. The murmurs faded into complete silence, and all attention focused solely on him.
With a flick of his wrist, Shen Yuan summoned a series of neatly arranged jade boxes and glowing artifacts, each radiating a faint aura of power. The items floated gently before him, suspended in the air by his Qi.
"These are Tier 1 to Tier 3 pills and artifacts," he explained, gesturing toward the collection.
"The pills are from Extreme Peak Tier and up to three-vein quality, and the artifacts have been crafted to at least High Quality and made to suit various needs. While they may not be the most advanced, I believe they can serve as valuable tools for our disciples."
The crowd erupted into whispers, eyes widening at the sight of the treasures. Even the most experienced elders couldn't hide their surprise, their expressions shifting from curiosity to astonishment.
Mei Hua leaned forward slightly, her serene demeanor giving way to visible surprise. "Three-vein pills... Such a level of refinement is incredibly rare, even among master alchemists," she murmured, more to herself than anyone else.
'Looks like it was wise of me to give that Medallion to him. That investment has already been paid back in full,' she thought with a gentle smile. Her eyes softened further when she looked at the confident smile on Shen Yuan's face.
Huo Rong's eyes sparkled with pride, while Bing Rong exchanged a glance with Yun Xian, both of them clearly impressed.
Shen Yuxin, however, was just as surprised as the rest. She had known Shen Yuan's talents, but this was beyond her expectations.
Shen Yuan smiled faintly, addressing the crowd once more. "I know that alchemy and artifact refinement are not my primary focus, but I have always believed in contributing to the sect in every way possible. These pills and artifacts are my way of giving back, of strengthening the foundation that has supported me."
He gestured toward the items. "These are for the sect. For you, my fellow disciples, to use as you see fit. The Sect Leader and elders will determine how they are distributed. My only wish is that they be used to aid those who truly need them."
The plaza fell silent again, but this time the atmosphere was heavy with awe and respect. Shen Yuan had not only proven his skill but had also demonstrated his commitment to the sect in a way that few could question.
After a moment, Mei Hua rose from her seat, her voice carrying over the gathering. "Shen Yuan, your actions today have not only strengthened our sect but have also set an example for all of us."
"Your dedication, humility, and generosity reflect the very ideals we hold dear. On behalf of the Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect, I thank you."
The crowd erupted into applause, the sound reverberating through the ceremonial grounds. Disciples looked at Shen Yuan with newfound admiration, while even the most stoic elders nodded in approval.
