At this moment, Ye Qian was somewhat lost and lost. This blow was too great. Since learning to refine pills, he had risen rapidly and had never suffered such a crushing defeat.
Hearing the Pill Master's words, his face turned dejected, his former vigor gone, and even his spirit was much weaker. Hearing the Pill Master's words, he slowly took out the Heavenly Fire Glaze.
At this moment, Ye Qian's master, the head of the Divine Pill Hall, stepped forward: "Wait, Long Chen's Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill hasn't been tested yet. How do we know if it's a real Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill?"
Besides, even a genuine Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill still needs to be tested for its effectiveness. Although his pill is ...,"
"Shut up. This pill doesn't need to be checked. Qian'er lost." The Lord of the Pill Master gave the Hall Master a cold glance, then looked at Ye Qian: "Qian'er, you know what you should do yourself, right?" Ye
Qian nodded. At this moment, he was like a defeated rooster, head hanging low, walking toward Long Chen. He took a deep breath and handed the Heavenly Fire Glaze in his hand to Long Chen, saying,
"You won. I, Ye Qian, will never back on my word. Here you go."
Long Chen smiled faintly, reached out to take the Heavenly Fire Glaze, and felt the terrifying energy within it. Heh, this effort wasn't in vain—he gained quite a bit.
"Thank you."
Long Chen took the Heavenly Fire Glaze without hesitation, and under countless greedy gazes, put it away and tossed it into the chaotic space.
The fire dragon, which had been waiting in the chaotic space for a long time, let out a deafening roar and swallowed it whole. Its soul fluctuation was filled with excitement. The fire dragon had never been this excited before; clearly, this Heavenly Fire Glaze was extremely important to it.
"Now that the competition is over, I still have trivial matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you further. Lord Dan, I take my leave." Long Chen cupped his fists slightly toward the Lord of the Pill.
"Go ahead. Come visit the Divine Pill Hall often when you have time." The Pill Master nodded and smiled slightly, showing no displeasure at Long Chen having defeated Ye Qian.
Long Chen nodded and, under everyone's gaze, slowly walked outside. Wanqing saw this and took Long Chen's hand as they left.
Watching Long Chen's slowly departing figure, the faces of the Divine Pill Hall experts turned extremely grim. Long Chen was ruthless this time, showing no respect to the Divine Pill Hall at all.
In their hearts, they felt resentment, but they had never considered that if Long Chen lost, he would kneel and bark like a dog, licking the green bricks. Had they ever spared him any face?
...
Inside the main hall, Elder Long and Elder Long looked at the images on the chessboard. Elder Long asked curiously, "
Did they just let Long Chen go like that?"
Elder Longqi chuckled and said, "So what if we don't let Long Chen go?" Although the Heavenly Fire Glaze is precious, the reputation of the Divine Pill Hall is even more important. "
But what Long Chen did seemed to show no respect to the Divine Pill Hall. That slap—look, the hall master's face turned purple." Elder Long shook his head.
"You, your timing is still lacking. Your calculations are still lacking. The Pill Master's wisdom is as vast as the sea; just watch quietly." Elder Longqi smiled faintly.
...
Watching Long Chen leave, about to disappear from sight, Feng Fei slowly stood up, preparing to leave as well.
Although she thought Long Chen would win this match, she was still amazed by his alchemy skills. This time, she had truly come to the right place.
"Huh, why did he stop again?" Suddenly, a maid beside Feng Fei said somewhat strangely.
Feng Fei turned to look, and saw that Long Chen and Wanqing only needed a few more steps to disappear from everyone's sight, when Long Chen suddenly stopped.
Long Chen sighed, slowly turned around, and looked at the smiling Pill Master in the distance, saying, "
Senior, you won. This pill will be a keepsake for everyone."
"Whoosh!"
Long Chen flicked his hand, and the Hundred Harmonious Spirit Pills shot out like a meteor, flying straight toward Ye Qian. Long Chen pulled Wanqing away and headed straight for the treasury.
Wanqing was pulled out of everyone's sight by Long Chen and couldn't hold back any longer. She couldn't help but ask,
"Brother Long Chen, you clearly won, so why did you give them this precious Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill?"
That Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill was the strongest pill Wanqing had ever seen, and also the most perfect pill she had ever seen. Long Chen actually gave it away, which made her feel deeply distressed.
Long Chen sighed and said, "I can't help it. The pill master is too emotionally intelligent and saw through my weakness at a glance."
If anyone deliberately obstructs or makes things difficult for me while I leave, I can take the Hundred Dao Harmonious Melodies Fusion Pill with a clear conscience.
But the Lord of the Pill is flawless and flawless. I was hoping someone would come and stop me, but unfortunately, none had one.
They've already done so much, and I even received a supreme treasure, Heavenly Fire Glaze. If I don't leave something behind, it would be too unfortunate.
Within the Divine Pill Hall, only the Pill Master is a true master of alchemy. I can give no respect to anyone, but he must give him some respect. Long
Chen wasn't feeling very happy either. He had been getting something for nothing, but the Hundred Dao Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill he had just refined ended up being wasted.
But there was nothing he could do. The Pill Master was doing things well, and he couldn't just think about taking advantage. After all, the Heavenly Fire Glaze was a supreme treasure. If he took it just like that, the Pill Master would lose face.
After all, the Lord of Pills was the only person Long Chen had so far earned his respect in the way of alchemy. He used his life to refine pills—such a person was truly a true alchemist.
Although Long Chen felt that the Pill Master had seen through his weakness and was deliberately using an open scheme to trap him, Long Chen just fell for it.
In the end, they still fell into a pit, leaving the pills behind. In this way, it was essentially an exchange. Everyone in the Divine Pill Hall, including Ye Qian, was honored and given a way out.
Originally, according to Long Chen's original plan, this time he would slap Shendan Hall hard, giving them no face, treating their face like a shoe insole.
However, although Ye Qian was arrogant and annoying, he never touched Long Chen's sore spot; everything was aimed at him personally.
Besides, Ye Qian was just a spoiled child, and Long Chen couldn't be bothered to bother with him, so he tossed him the Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill.
Long Chen could also see that although this guy was spoiled to the extreme, his alchemy talent was indeed high. The future of the Divine Pill Hall would depend on him, and the Pill Master would devote all his efforts to nurturing him. Simply give him a way out.
"Brother Long Chen, I just realized how terrifying your mastery of alchemy is. I was worried about you before." Wanqing linked arms with Long Chen, tilting her little head, and said somewhat aggrievedly, as her heart had been tightening all along.
"Silly girl, didn't I tell you? Your brother Long Chen is the reincarnation of the strongest Star Warrior—he will never lose. "Long Chen laughed and said,
"Alright, let's go pick out some rare medicines. Hehe, my wallet is full now, I want to experience what it feels like to be rich and generous."
Seeing Long Chen's look like a landlord, Wanqing giggled playfully. The two stepped onto the teleportation array, their figures gradually disappearing.
...
"Smack!"
Ye Qian was stunned, almost instinctively grabbing the Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Pill. The moment he pulled it out, a surge of energy shook his soul, nearly causing him to scream.
He didn't swallow a single pill; just touching it with his hand made the endless energy resemble a volcano—vast and intimidating.
"He... "...
Ye Qian hadn't expected Long Chen to leave this treasure pill to him, which left his mind in chaos.
Long Chen's actions stunned everyone, except for the Lord of the Pill Lord, who smiled slightly, as if everything had been expected.
"Is this really the Hundred Dao Harmonious Melody Spirit Pill?" Why is it different from what we forged? "
This overwhelming power is terrifying. If you swallow it, who can withstand such a terrifying effect?"
"We're not being tricked, are we? This is basically a poison pill—taking it will kill you."
For a moment, the elders of the Divine Pill Hall stared at the Hundred Paths Harmonizing Spirit Pill and immediately began to discuss among themselves.
"Who told you this pill is meant to be eaten?" The Pill Master shook his head.
As soon as the Pill Master spoke, everyone fell silent. Everyone turned to look at him, even the Divine Clan disciples who had been watching the spectacle. At this moment, they did not leave, but all looked at the Pill Master, hoping he would give an explanation. Even though they were not pill cultivators, they were still full of curiosity about the Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill.
Feng Fei had already gotten up, but seeing this, she sat down again. She also wanted to hear the Pill Master's explanation.
The Lord of the Pill looked at everyone, his expression solemn: "Very well, today I'll use this Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Fusion Pill refined by Long Chen to give you a lesson. All disciples of the Divine Pill Hall must listen carefully, because the tuition is too expensive." "
It really is too expensive. Using an ancient divine artifact, Heavenly Fire Glaze, to exchange for a Hundred Paths Harmonious Spirit Pill, this deal is a huge loss. Ye Qian's face turned bright red, wishing he could crawl into a hole in the ground."
Looking at Ye Qian, the Pill Master smiled slightly and said, "Qian'er, you don't need to blame yourself. Since this Heavenly Fire Glaze was given to you by the Divine Pill Hall, it belongs to you."
You lost your own things, but you taught everyone a lesson. Although tuition is a bit higher, as long as you learn from it, we're not losing out—or rather, we still have gains.
Misfortune is where fortune leans, fortune is where misfortune hides. What is called fortune or misfortune is actually what matters to the final outcome, not to temporary success or failure. "
The Pill Master's words made Ye Qian feel much more at ease, filling him with gratitude.
The Pill Master's eyes swept over all the disciples of the Divine Pill Hall present, paused briefly, and then said:
"Perhaps you don't know, but in fact, I personally guided your entire competition."
"What?"
Everyone present was shocked, almost unable to believe their ears, and Ye Qian's face was filled with disbelief.
