From the Falling Cloud Mountain to the Cloud Water Nation’s general's residence, Bai Luochu enjoyed a rather eventful few days . However, this wasn’t the only place bustling with excitement . The Palace of Brilliance Resurgence overseen by Guan Yue was also rather lively .
“How many has it been?” Guan Yue was rubbing his temple as if he was having a headache . He placed his elbows on the table and used his hand to support his chin as he questioned the other members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence .
The rest of the members looked at each other with dismay and after a long moment, one of them stammered, “Young… Young Master Guan . Many people visited and we didn’t keep track of the numbers… We only know that there is one bottle of antidote left . ” The person lowered his head with embarrassment as he spoke .
Guan Yue understood the reason behind Divine Physician Bai’s insistence for him to oversee the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence . Most of the major and minor factions in the Cloud Water Nation were drawn to the Falling Cloud Mountain Range, but these factions left people behind to guard their bases . Most of them were small fries who were not qualified to take part in the battle at the Falling Cloud Mountain Range .

The Palace of Brilliance Resurgence had suddenly emerged within a short span of two weeks, just like spring onion in a drought . No one would believe if the other factions would allow them to do as they wished .
As a result, Guan Yue had been extremely busy . It felt as though the surrounding small factions were lining up to test the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence . There were some who were competent enough to withstand the poison array, but when they reached the main entrance of the Palace of Resurgence, they passed out . There was a weakling who even fainted in the middle of the poison array . Guan Yue even had to send out men to feed that person the antidote before escorting him back to his faction .
When the person woke up and realized that he was back at his base, he was shocked . He asked the other disciples and when he learned about how he was politely dropped off by the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence, he felt humiliated . He wanted to go to the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence to regain his honor but he recalled that he wasn’t even able to reach their gates . He stood at the foot of the mountain and yelled at the palace as he requested for them to send someone to fight him .
The Palace of Brilliance Resurgence thought that this person would give up after a few days . No one expected him to set up a shed at the bottom of the mountain . When he became tired from shouting, he retreated to his shed and took a rest . There were times when this person came during the night and yelled the moment the day started . Everyone felt uncomfortable because of him and someone finally sent him a message .
A slip of paper arrived at his shed which read, “Sire must be exhausted after the past few days . It’s a blessing for someone like you to take note of our Palace . However, we want to exist in harmony with everyone and will not want to fight with sire . We think that sire is frustrated because of the poison array at the bottom of the mountain . We apologise for our negligence . The poison array is something a random physician set up and we do not intend to hurt anyone . If we can’t satisfy you with our explanation, the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence will await your grand arrival . ”

Rumor had it that the person fainted the moment he read the message . Guan Yue eventually explained the reason behind it .
“If this person is willing to waste so much time because he fainted in the poison array, he is definitely a prideful being . We simply need to tell him that the poison array is merely something at the elementary level and a random physician was the one who set it up . When he learns that he isn’t competent enough to deal with a physician, he will definitely break down . ”
Guan Yue might be noble and virtuous, but he still grew up in an aristocratic clan . He studied stratagems and the art of war . He knew that he had to target the heart when dealing with such people .
When Guan Yue heard that the person had vomited blood, he simply passed down the order, “We are the ones at fault here . Get someone to buy some superior medicine from the Hundred Herbs Hall and deliver it to that person . Let him know that it was prepared by our physician after learning that his poison array caused so much trouble . It’s a sign of our apology . ”
The rest of the members from the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence couldn’t understand Guan Yue’s method of doing things and asked, “Young Master Guan, I don’t think the person will consume the medicine . Why are we wasting our time?”

“It is his decision to consume the medicine . Delivering the medicine will show our etiquette . Just carry out my order . Nothing will go wrong . When you deliver the medicine, you will understand the reason . ” After Guan Yue spoke, he rubbed the joint of his left index finger and revealed a profound smile .
One of the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence acted according to Guan Yue’s instruction . He immediately headed to the capital city to get some medicine before rushing over to that person’s sect . When the disciples guarding the mountain gate heard that he was here to offer their apology, they allowed the member of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence to enter .
After he arrived, he placed the medicine down and repeated everything Guan Yue had mentioned . In response, the person fainted on the spot .
It was said that when that person finally woke up, he wasn’t able to stand up . His cultivation was wasted and he was no longer able to move . He might still be alive, but he was a living vegetable .
Everyone immediately understood that Guan Yue was making an example out of this person . He was killing a chicken to warn the monkey . Those small factions didn’t dare to send anyone else and Guan Yue managed to achieve his goal .
The reputation of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence started to spread from the surrounding factions . At the start, everyone said that they shouldn’t be provoked . However, as the rumors started to spread, the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence became unfathomable and their poison array was praised to be able to whittle a person’s willpower away .
Most of the factions behaved themselves, but there were still a few that didn’t believe the rumors . They sent over several individuals in order to test the waters .
“Young Master Guan, what do you think about these two individuals?” It had been quite a long time since someone came looking for trouble, therefore, the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence were at a loss of what to do .
Guan Yue glanced at them indifferently and said, “What else can we do? Follow the normal practice . If they are some demonic moths here with weird ideas, just deal with them as per usual . ”
