Chapter 515 “Indulgence with the Face Slapping (14)”
“Shadowless Sect, three completed recipes, disqualified!”
“Tian Xuan Sect, five completed recipes, barely pass.”
“Moon Slicer Sect….”
Following each result of the judges from the Medicine Sect, there were many frowns and tense faces, but more were leaning towards the frustrated expression as a result of their failure.
There are a total of twelve recipes given out this year. To be able to complete just five was enough to prove a contestant’s worth. Sadly, among the many forces participating, the highest success rate revolves around only seven…
Before long, a judge has arrived at Bai Yan’s spot and begun opening the box she prepared ahead of time to house the pills she created.
“Seven types of pills?” The judge’s face became a bit red over the sight.
Seven types of pills?
The faces of all the people were showing astonishment as well by now.
This woman managed to refine over seven Dan pills by herself? Wow, she’s tied with the Moon Slicer Sect!
“Elder Ceo Wang,” it was then a middle-aged man stepped forward. First giving Bai Yan a negative look, he then faced the old senior: “I want to protest. This woman was sneaking around our place of residence last night. Then by this morning, us of the Moon Slicer Sect discovered there’s been a theft. Seven of our creations were missing from the main cauldron.”
Watching this unfold from afar, Ye Ying who was still being carried around finally revealed her sinister self again in public. There’s no other reason, its because this man was arranged by her to destroy Bai Yan’s reputation.
“Are your words true?” Elder Ceo Wang’s face turned slightly white, his anger showing then as he confronted the accused.
Like the old senior, the onlookers were also focused in on Bai Yan by now. Their faces all questioning and uncertain.
To think there would be someone daring enough to cheat at the alchemy convention. Is she asking to die? This woman may be part of the Holy Land, but not even her sect would shield someone so low!
“Of course my words are true.” The middle-aged man from the Moon Slicer Sect smugly grins.
Miss Ye Ying will be Bai Zhanpeng’s goddaughter in the future. There’s no way the Holy Land would shield a disgraced disciple that has no background or ability.
“Where is your evidence?” Ceo Wang’s expression sank, turning dark and stern as he attempts to get to the bottom of this.
“Elder, you should’ve noticed as well. This woman from the Holy Land did nothing but play with her son during the past three days. Where is she supposed to find time to refine all these pills while doing something like that? What’s more, there’s no way each contesting party would only create one pill of each type. My Moon Slicer Sect has done just that and is missing one of each kind from our possession. As it so happens, its exactly the ones she has in that box.”
The implication of that statement was that the disciple from the Holy Land didn’t know any alchemy at all, merely an extra to make up the numbers.
Sure enough, Elder Ceo Wang’s complexion was now darker than the bottom of a burnt pot.
It’s not like the old fella didn’t pay attention to Bai Yan’s actions during these past few days. That’s why he’s willing to believe the man’s claim to a certain extent. “Humph, to think there really is someone daring enough to cheat while under my watch!”
Over at the other end of the crowd, Di Xiao Wan and Chu Yi Yi were already fuming hard upon seeing these people spouting lies left and right. But just as the two were ready to jump out to kick some asses, it was their friend Lan Xiaoyan who pulled them back.
“Don’t worry, my cousin will be able to handle these idiots on her own. If you two go out now then wouldn’t we be missing a good show as a result?”
Though the words were able to keep the two dangerous females at bay, but the surging anger in those eyes didn’t diminish in the least. In fact, its only growing stronger!
