Chapter 142 - 131: Intriguing!

Chapter 142: Chapter 131: Intriguing!

Even a dog raised for over twenty years would evoke feelings of attachment, let alone a person one had lived with for that long. Moreover, when he looked back on his time raising Yun Feng, the boy had been obedient and lovable since childhood. They had always gotten along well. How could things... turn out like this?

"An utterly foolish act..." Little White Wolf cursed angrily. "Forget it... Your IQ is too low, and I can’t be bothered to persuade you. If you want to die, go ahead and die. However, your performance has truly left your master extremely dissatisfied. Not because of your choice, but because of your Alchemy Skill!

"You are a total disgrace to your master... I feel sorry for him. You learned so much from him, yet, just as Yun Feng said, you are still a piece of trash!"

Yun Buliu bowed to Su Tan once again. This time... Yun Buliu was overwhelmed with shame.

"This disciple’s skills are lacking. I have disgraced you, Master. I deserve death!"

His words left Yun Feng completely baffled... Yun Buliu was actually calling that young man his master?

"Disciple? Master?" He looked at Su Tan. He had actually noticed the young man when he first arrived, but he never could have imagined that Yun Buliu would refer to himself as a disciple in front of him. Because that young man was... completely unremarkable! Whether it was his cultivation base or anything else. No matter how one looked at it, he couldn’t possibly be qualified to be the master of the Medicine King, Yun Buliu! That person was just too ordinary!

"Haha... Yun Buliu, oh, Yun Buliu. You truly are an embarrassment. Can just anyone be your master now?"

"Lacking skills? If you had really lost because of that, it would have been fine. Yun Buliu, oh, Yun Buliu... are your skills truly lacking? I think you’re just braindead! Do you know why your master is disappointed? Let me tell you the truth... It’s not because your skills are lacking, but precisely because... your skills are too refined! Don’t you realize that you’re already a Saint Grade Alchemist? Do you even know that you could have refined the Red Fire Glaze Pill into a Holy Pill, evolving it into an outstanding existence among Holy Pills? You clearly have the strength to crush Yun Feng, yet you choose to suffer humiliation here, and even drag your disciple, Xiu’Er, down to suffer with you... What do you expect me to say? You really are a fucking idiot!" Little White Wolf cursed colorfully.

Its words had always been harsh. Always merciless.

Yun Buliu froze.

"What? You don’t believe me? That’s why I said you have a problem with your IQ. Go look at the residue of the ruined elixir you just refined. Study it carefully and see if there is any trace of a tendency to evolve into a Holy Pill!"

Yun Buliu was half-skeptical and half-convinced...

He wondered, "How could I possibly be that incredible? How could I have become a Saint Grade Alchemist? How the hell did I not know about this? Are you kidding me?!"

He walked over to the Alchemy Furnace and picked up the residue of the ruined elixir! Upon closer inspection, his eyes suddenly widened, staring at the ruined pill in his hand in disbelief.

It actually showed signs of turning into a Holy Pill!

He wondered, "This... Is this what I just refined? Have I... have I really become a Saint Grade Alchemist?"

He was completely dumbfounded!

He thought, "Holy shit! How did I not feel a thing? I feel so stupid! So foolish! So humiliating!"

Generally, becoming a Saint Level Alchemist would inevitably trigger an anomaly in the world. Just having the strength was useless; the prerequisite was that one had to prove themselves. Only by proving it could they trigger the anomaly. And how did one prove it? By refining a Holy Pill! When refining the first Holy Pill, one would receive the recognition of the Great Dao’s Dao Runes, integrating their personal Dao into the world’s Great Dao. Only then could the anomaly be triggered. After triggering the anomaly and receiving the blessing of the Saint Dao, no matter what kind of elixir was refined in the future, it would receive the blessing of the Saint Runes, elevating the quality of any other elixirs being refined.

Yun Buliu had always known that his strength had improved, but he had never thought that he had already reached the Saint Grade. Since the last time he refined the Red Fire Glaze Pill, he hadn’t attempted it again. After all, the materials for this thing were quite rare. Who would have nothing better to do than refine such precious medicine every day?

Therefore... he had remained completely unaware that he had already become a Saint Grade Alchemist. Because the Red Fire Glaze Pill was of the King’s Dao level, didn’t proving the Saint Dao require refining Saint Level elixirs? He had never known that the Red Fire Glaze Pill could evolve into a Holy Pill, allowing him to prove his Saint Dao. Thinking about it, it was quite melodramatic.

Now, looking at the residue of the Red Fire Glaze Pill in the Pill Cauldron, he finally understood...

"Well? Am I wrong to call you stupid? Do you know why your master is disappointed in you now?" Little White Wolf continued to mock him. "You clearly have the ability to absolutely crush your enemies, yet you let them humiliate you and trample all over you. Even your beloved disciple was subjected to all kinds of humiliation... If you were Mr. Su, wouldn’t you feel disappointed?" Little White Wolf asked rhetorically.

The question left Yun Buliu completely stunned!

He thought, "That’s right... If I had such a moronic disciple, I’d probably cough up blood in anger."

His old face flushed red!

"What, do you still want to make a comeback with the residue of a ruined elixir? Is there something wrong with your brain?" Yun Feng sneered when he saw Yun Buliu studying the ruined pill.

Yun Buliu completely ignored the man who seemed to enjoy talking to himself. With a THUD, he fell to his knees before Su Tan. He prostrated himself entirely!

"Master, this disciple has embarrassed you. It is truly shameful... But please rest assured, Master. This disciple will never tarnish your name again!"

Yun Feng and the experts beside him were all flabbergasted. Just who exactly was that young man sitting in the chair? Why was the dignified Medicine King, Yun Buliu, treating him with such reverence?

Yun Buliu was not about to explain anything to Yun Feng and his group. He stood up, faced Yun Feng, and said, "I demand additional time for refining. This guy has been making a ruckus beside me all along, making it impossible for me to peacefully start over, which caused me to lose a massive amount of time!"

"Impossible!" Yun Feng flatly refused.

"According to the Alchemist Competition Convention, if an opponent repeatedly interrupts the alchemist during the refinement process, they can indeed request sufficient additional time to start over!"

Everyone present was taken aback. Because the person who spoke didn’t actually belong to Yun Buliu’s side, but rather... Yun Feng’s side. It was truly unbelievable that these people were speaking up for Yun Buliu!
