Chapter 108 - 108 108 Contempt

108: Chapter 108: Contempt 108: Chapter 108: Contempt “Long Yan, do you know your crime?”

Zuo Qiuyu reluctantly withdrew his gaze from Lingxi and coldly scolded Long Yan.

“Who do you think you are, qualified to criticize me?”

Long Yan looked at Zuo Qiuyu coldly, with killing intent in his eyes.

“You just entered Pill King Hall and killed Xiang Ying.

Now, you killed Xia Tian, a direct disciple of Dan Hall, violating the rules.

This is a capital crime.

Do you want to come with me, or do I have someone help you?”

Zuo Qiuyu sneered, in-house killing is enough to nail Long Yan.

“That depends on whether you have the strength.”

Long Yan could tell that those who followed Zuo Qiuyu were law enforcement disciples from the Heavenly Martial Realm.

“How arrogant!

Do you think this is your home?”

Zuo Qiuyu’s gaze suddenly turned cold, and he said to the Law Enforcement Disciples behind him: “What are you waiting for, grab this rule-breaker!”

It was quite easy for more than a dozen Heavenly Martial Realm law enforcement disciples to suppress Long Yan.

People also felt sorry for Long Yan.

Once entering the Law Enforcement Hall, it would be a life-or-death situation.

“What a pity, he has such a heaven-defying talent, but doesn’t know how to endure.

Now that he’s caught by the Law Enforcement Hall, he’s done for!”

“He’s dead, and that’s what happens when you don’t know your place!”

Some people felt sorry for Long Yan, while others took pleasure in his misfortune, staying out of trouble.

“Kid, you’d better give up.

If we take action, you’re bound to suffer!”

A law enforcement disciple stepped out and said coldly to Long Yan.

With their status, they wouldn’t bother to take action against an Inner Hall Disciple.

“You are law enforcement disciples, yet you’re willing to be someone’s dog.

I really overestimated you!”

Long Yan mocked them, full of disdain.

“You’re courting death!”

As soon as these words came out, the law enforcement disciples were completely enraged, their gazes like fire and their momentum surging, ready to take action against Long Yan.

At this moment, Long Yan was also prepared for a big fight, and he was not afraid of the Heavenly Martial Realm.

“Stop!”

Just then, a voice descended from the sky, followed by the sound of breaking wind.

A graceful figure appeared in front of Long Yan – it was Leng Youlan.

“Zuo Qiuyu, this is Martial Palace’s business, not your place to interfere.

Get lost!”

Leng Youlan showed no good face to Zuo Qiuyu and spoke very rudely.

However, Zuo Qiuyu didn’t get angry at all.

His gaze fell on Leng Youlan, and he looked at her without restraint, as if trying to see something from her.

“Youlan, I knew you would come.”

Zuo Qiuyu smiled, “I know that this youngster has a connection with your Leng Family, but this is Pill King Hall, and the person Long Yan killed is a direct disciple of the Ninth Elder.

How can it have nothing to do with me?”

Leng Youlan’s eyebrows furrowed, and a trace of coldness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

She was very uncomfortable with Zuo Qiuyu’s intimate address: “You don’t represent Dan Hall, and although Dan Hall is the main hall, Martial Palace is not without status.

Get out, or don’t blame me for being impolite!”

Zuo Qiuyu didn’t expect Leng Youlan to be so disrespectful to him, and he was quite angry: “Do you really want to protect him?”

“It’s not your place to interfere in my affairs!”

Leng Youlan spoke domineeringly.

“Leng Youlan, you can’t protect him.

In Pill King Hall, Alchemists are the masters.”

Zuo Qiuyu sneered constantly.

“Alchemists are nothing!”

At this moment, Long Yan took a step forward and stood side by side with Leng Youlan, looking at Zuo Qiuyu disdainfully.

“What?”

As soon as these words came out, they were like a thunderclap, and all eyes instantly focused on Long Yan, full of shock, including Leng Youlan.

This kind of statement is absolutely taboo in Pill King Hall, no one dares to say it, even Leng Youlan wouldn’t dare to say it.

Hiss!

Everyone present drew in a cold breath, as if they could stuff a whole egg into their mouths.

If Long Yan killing Xia Tian was considered arrogance before, then at this point, Long Yan was definitely arrogant beyond belief.

Uttering these words showed complete contempt for the whole Dan Hall!

“Long Yan, you’ve got guts!”

Zuo Qiuyu laughed, his laughter sinister: “Since you look down on alchemists, you must know quite a bit about refining pills, right?”

“I wouldn’t say I’m very good, just a little bit better than you.”

Long Yan replied indifferently.

His words were not false at all.

The knowledge of pill refining contained in the Nine Suns Divine Cauldron was as vast as the ocean.

Even in his past life when he was at the peak of Pill Venerate realm, he had only learned a tiny fraction from the Nine Suns Divine Cauldron.

“Blatant boast!”

Zuo Qiuyu snorted coldly: “You’re quite confident, dare to compete with me?”

“Why should I compete with you?

Just because you’re uglier than me?”

Long Yan smirked, not putting Zuo Qiuyu in his eyes at all.

“Damn!”

Zuo Qiuyu forcefully suppressed his urge to explode in rage, but the anger in his chest had reached the brink of eruption: “I won’t make it difficult for you; both of us will refine a Second Grade Elixir at the same time, timed by the burning of an incense stick.

Whoever finishes refining the higher-quality elixir in less time wins.

If you win, your killing of Xia Tian will be forgiven, but if you lose, I’ll dispose of you as I please.

How about it?”

“I can agree to that.”

Long Yan’s gaze sharpened, looking at Zuo Qiuyu with a playful smile: “However, there’s one more condition.”

“What condition?”

“If you lose, you must kneel down in front of everyone and bark like a dog three times.”

Long Yan said with a smile.

“Hmph, you’re all talk.

If you win, I’ll even call you ‘grandpa’ three times!”

Zuo Qiuyu snorted coldly, never thinking that Long Yan could refine pills, let alone that he could be his opponent.

As one of the three major geniuses of Dan Hall, it would be shameful if he couldn’t even defeat a Martial Palace disciple.

“What, Long Yan actually agreed?

Am I hearing things?”

“It’s unrealistic; a Martial Palace disciple is trying to compete with Senior Brother Zuo in pill refinement, is this just an attempt to attract attention?”

“To speak frankly, even if it’s only a First Grade Elixir, if he can refine it, I’ll call him my father!”

“This guy is absolutely arrogant.

I really don’t know where his confidence comes from.”

“You guys don’t understand, in the entire Pill King Hall, how many people dare to compete with Senior Brother Zuo in pill refinement?

This guy killed Xia Tian, and he knows that he’s on a path to certain death.

By doing this, he just wants to boost his reputation before he dies.”

“…”

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded and shocked, and at the same time, they admired Long Yan.

Some even tried to see through Long Yan with their narrow-minded views.

“Long Yan, are you sure about this?”

Leng Youlan’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, as she couldn’t see through Long Yan.

If Long Yan didn’t agree, she could protect him, but if Long Yan did agree, it’d be his own problem, and she wouldn’t be able to intervene anymore.

Complying with the outcome of a bet was the rule!

“Of course.”

Long Yan’s mouth curved into a smirk, looking maliciously at Zuo Qiuyu: “Having the chance to make one of the three major geniuses of Dan Hall kneel and bark like a dog doesn’t come that often.”
