Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1566: Chapter 1565: Reunion with Lyu Qingyu

This Pill Master competition can only be considered a minor contest because it only invited some families from around the area.

As for sect influences like the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, they were not invited.

The competition’s location is at the branch of the Pill Refining Association situated on the Star of the Shen Clan, where the Menghan Black Market is located.

When Su Han and the others arrived, the sky was already approaching noon.

They immediately saw the dense crowd ahead.

These figures, some from various families, others having heard about this minor Pill Master contest, came to watch.

Many people aspire to refine pills, but their talents are insufficient to become alchemists, and no alchemist is willing to take them as disciples and teach them alchemy.

Yet they refuse to give up just like this.

So, whenever they encounter such an opportunity, many people with this mindset will come to the front of the Pill Refining Association to observe how these alchemists refine pills.

The Pill Refining Association seems to deliberately offer them this opportunity, so every minor contest is held at the entrance of the association, not inside.

...

”Look, isn’t that Alchemist Cao, Cao Lin?”

”Heh, what’s an Alchemist Cao? Alchemist Zou, Zou Yu, is truly strong!”

”Indeed, since becoming a Pill Master until now, Alchemist Zou has achieved the red badge with three pattern marks, all within just three hundred years. Truly formidable!”

”Hehe, this time it’s the First Grade Alchemist minor contest. I wonder which powerful alchemists will emerge?”

”The Pill Refining Association treats us quite well, knowing we aspire to refine pills but lack talent, they deliberately hold such minor contests at the gates.”

”A pill master, with a benevolent heart, isn’t that the principle?”

...

At the entrance of the Pill Refining Association, silhouettes were densely packed.

Discussion was continuous and frequently heard.

Occasionally, there was a commotion, signaling the arrival of a famous alchemist.

Amidst the crowd’s observation, each invited family arrived, bringing their hired alchemists or family alchemists, slowly walking from outside the crowd.

”Isn’t that the Young Master Lyu Qingyu of the Lyu Family?”

”It’s said that just three months ago, Lyu Qingyu obtained the red Alchemist Badge with three pattern marks, a talent indeed extraordinary!”

”Not only in alchemy talent, but also extremely strong in martial talent, otherwise how could he be invited by Taihang Academy to become a student?”

The people of the Lyu Family entered the crowd’s sight, immediately causing a commotion.

Lyu Qingyu was at the forefront, walking proudly with hands behind his back.

Behind him, two old men followed, their aura concealed and cultivation base unclear.

Beside the old men, there were three accompanying alchemists. From their chest badges, it was easy to guess their identities.

Upon reaching the entrance of the Pill Refining Master Association, Lyu Qingyu and his group’s figure stopped.

He turned around, scanning as if searching for something.

Moments later, the crowd was in uproar once more.

”It’s the Shen Family from the Menghan Black Market!”

”Indeed, the Shen family was invited as well.”

”Is that the Shen family’s eldest lady, Shen Mengli? Indeed beautiful, no wonder so many men flock to her, even someone like Young Master Lyu is persistently pursuing.”

Shen Mengli and the red-clothed elder were at the front, followed by Su Han and four other alchemists, and behind them was the rest of the Shen family’s guards.

They walked through the crowd, stopping at the entrance of the Pill Refining Master Association under countless gazes.

Beside them were Lyu Qingyu and his group.

”You again?”

When seeing Su Han, Lyu Qingyu’s expression immediately turned sullen: ”You actually dared to come!”

”Do you still dare to touch me?” Su Han said with a faint smile.

”Hmph!”

Lyu Qingyu snorted coldly but said nothing more.

He remembered clearly Ren Qinghuan’s warning back then.

After leaving the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, Lyu Qingyu reported this matter, embellishing it, to his father, the Lyu Family Head.

However, the envisioned revenge scene from his father did not appear. Instead, his father repeatedly urged not to provoke Ren Qinghuan, and Su Han... was best not provoked either.

Lyu Qingyu was scheming but not entirely foolish; he still had some sense.

So, at this moment, he didn’t want to say anything more to Su Han. Anyway, the more he spoke, the more he would suffer.

However, unable to provoke Su Han, Lyu Qingyu shifted his gaze to Shen Menghan.

The Lyu Family cannot offend the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, but can’t they offend the Shen family as well?

”You lowlife, you probably have affairs with countless men, don’t you?”

Lyu Qingyu sneered with a twisted smile: ”I’ve realized, a slut like you isn’t worth having. If I truly desire a woman, many will line up in front of me, waiting for my favor.”

”Then you better be careful.”

Shen Mengli said indifferently: ”I’ve heard that doing such things excessively can lead to some incurable diseases. I hope Young Master Lyu lives a long life.”

”Speaking of diseases, I’m afraid Su Han is already infected, right?”

Lyu Qingyu laughed heartily: ”You’ve probably already slept together, right? Su Han, let me tell you, this woman is quite a flirt, you wouldn’t know how many men she’s been with, be careful when you get cuckolded.”

”I think Young Master Lyu’s favorite must be wearing a green hat, right?” Su Han said with a faint smile.

”I like to put green hats on you!” Lyu Qingyu snorted coldly.

”That also depends on whether you have the ability.” Su Han said, not the least bit angered.

”Su Han, don’t be arrogant. Today, the Third-Grade Pill is something the Lyu Family is determined to obtain!”

Lyu Qingyu said darkly: ”Ren Qinghuan can protect you now, but she can’t protect you for life. Once I become a Second Level Student at Taihang Academy, I’ll have an amulet. If I kill you then, let’s see if Ren Qinghuan dares to intervene!”

”You should be grateful the Pavilion Master didn’t hear this.”

Su Han smirked: ”With the Pavilion Master’s temper, if he heard this, not only you but your entire Lyu Family would be in trouble.”

”Enough!”

Just then, the middle-aged man beside Su Han, the Pill Master Zhou Wang hired by Shen Menghan, suddenly frowned and shouted: ”Aren’t you annoying? The Shen family spent money hiring you, not for you to bicker here. If you truly have the skill, then bring back a first place for us to see?”

After speaking, Zhou Wang looked at Lyu Qingyu, and his displeased expression disappeared, replaced with a smile, nodding towards Lyu Qingyu.

This scene directly made Shen Mengli frown.

”Is this guy blind?”

Su Han no longer held back, pointing at Zhou Wang, speaking to Shen Mengli: ”Your Shen family spent Spirit Crystals to hire him, yet he shows favor to Lyu Qingyu? That’s not how flattery works, right?”
