The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 301: Chapter 301 Defamation Chapter 301: Chapter 301 Defamation Lv Yun was a First-level Alchemist at the Alchemist Association.

In Alchemy, the Association had many Second and Third-Level Alchemists whose abilities exceeded those of Lv Yun.

However, in medicine preparation, Lv Yun indeed had his unique prowess; even many Second and Third-Level Alchemists couldn’t compare with him.

This fact gave Lv Yun a rather special status within the Alchemist Association, especially among the numerous Pharmacists, where his prestige was exceptionally high.

“Hmm?” As Lv Yun was slightly nodding, basking in the surrounding compliments, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

He saw Jing Yan!

He didn’t recognize Jing Yan, nor had he ever seen him before.

In the Alchemist Association, the number of Alchemists and Pharmacists wasn’t large.

Everyone was in one place; unavoidable in passing, so even if not familiar, faces were generally recognized, or at least remembered.

But apparently, Lv Yun had never seen Jing Yan; he was completely unfamiliar.

“Who are you?” Lv Yun stared at Jing Yan, his expression turning completely dark.

And the other Pharmacists also had a chill in their eyes as they looked at Jing Yan.

“Who is this kid?”

“I don’t know, never seen them!”

“I haven’t seen them either.

Where did he pop up from?” Many Pharmacists whispered among themselves, staring at Jing Yan with unfriendly expressions.

Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t pay much attention to a stranger like Jing Yan.

But today, in this hall, it was different because Lv Yun was publicly preparing medicine, and a stranger’s presence here—what intentions did he harbor?

Jing Yan also frowned slightly, and after a moment of thought, he said with a smile, “Alchemist Jiao Ming asked me to wait here.”

Jing Yan realized he might have been misunderstood.

“You’re not a member of the Alchemist Association?” When Lv Yun heard Jing Yan’s explanation, instead of understanding, his expression grew even colder.

“I am not right now, but after today, I will be,” Jing Yan continued calmly.

“Kid, are you trying to steal learn my medicine preparation?” Lv Yun’s voice suddenly turned stern.

“No, Alchemist Jiao Ming asked me to wait here for an assessment.

This guard can vouch for me!” Jing Yan frowned; this Lv Yun was seemingly difficult to deal with.

“Indeed, Alchemist Jiao Ming instructed me to bring him here to wait,” the guard also helped to explain.

“Kid, I don’t care what your relationship with Alchemist Jiao Ming is.

Today, you must give me an explanation.

I advise you to come clean, or even Alchemist Jiao Ming won’t be able to protect you,” Lv Yun’s voice boomed deeply.

“Exactly, totally disgraceful.

So young, not following the proper paths, he won’t amount to much in the future!”

“Hmph, even if he wants to improve his medicine preparation skills, he should do it step by step diligently.

To become a high-level pharmacist by deceitful means, he’s dreaming.”

“Such a person, our Alchemist Association, shouldn’t even assess him!”

The surrounding Pharmacists also started to openly criticize Jing Yan.

Clearly, they all believed that Jing Yan was here to sneak learn Lv Yun’s medicine preparation.

These Pharmacists were indeed quite irritated.

Observing and learning from Lv Yun’s medicine preparation, in their view, was a privilege of the internal pharmacists of their association.

And now, an outsider was enjoying their privilege; of course, they were very dissatisfied.

Jing Yan’s face also looked displeased.

“Alchemist Lv Yun, is it?

I don’t want to argue with you.

Once Alchemist Jiao Ming arrives, the truth will naturally be known,” Jing Yan’s voice also grew colder.

How high was Jing Yan’s medicine preparation level?

Even Vice President Liu Wen was incredibly astonished.

The low-level potions prepared by Jing Yan were effective enough to match ordinary intermediate potions and even surpass some.

Jing Yan, stealing learn Lv Yun’s medicine preparation?

That was laughable!

However, Jing Yan didn’t feel like talking too much nonsense with these people.

“Hehe… little brat, do you really think that because you’re associated with Alchemist Jiao Ming, I wouldn’t dare do anything to you?

I just want to ask you, did you see me prepare the medicine?” Lv Yun challenged.

“I saw it, and your medicine preparation skills are indeed quite good,” Jing Yan admitted.

He had seen Lv Yun preparing medicine, and that was a fact; he also knew what kind of medicine Lv Yun was preparing—it was a top-level medicine.

“Ha…” At those words, Lv Yun suddenly burst out laughing, “My medicine preparation skills are indeed quite good?”

“What an exaggeration!”

“I’ve also seen something new today.

My medicine preparation, in your eyes, is quite good?

Kid, what exactly are you thinking?

Are you trying to say that you have higher skills in medicine preparation than I do?

That’s truly ridiculous!” Lv Yun made an exaggerated expression.

The others also scoffed.

Jing Yan said he was here waiting for an assessment to join the Alchemist Association, and most people didn’t really doubt that.

But given Jing Yan’s age, even if it were for an assessment to join, he would certainly just be a pharmacist, at best a quite promising pharmacist.

But now, Jing Yan was saying that Lv Yun’s medicine preparation skills were quite good.

This was indeed very laughable.

If a high-ranking official of the Alchemist Association had said this, Lv Yun might have been flattered, but this statement was from a young pharmacist under twenty, making it sound extremely grating.

“Kid, I gave you a chance!

I, Lv Yun, am not a petty person.

If you had just admitted fault and apologized earlier, we could have moved past this.

But you didn’t cherish the opportunity and even insulted me.

I want to see what Alchemist Jiao Ming can say!” Lv Yun shouted furiously, even pointing his finger in reproach.

“Hmph, even if Alchemist Jiao Ming protects you, today I must see that you face the appropriate punishment!” Lv Yun took a deep breath, seemingly struggling to contain his rage; he wasn’t planning to let Jing Yan off easily.

“You want to join the Alchemist Association?

Dream on!

I won’t just prevent you from joining the Alchemist Association, I’ll also make sure you never think about stealing learning medicine preparation again!

You, will remember this day!” Lv Yun’s voice was dark and heavy.

“Alchemist Lv Yun, do not think too highly of yourself!

Your skills in medicine preparation are good, but just merely good; I don’t need to steal learn your medicine preparation!” Jing Yan was also angry.

He had already explained multiple times that he hadn’t been stealing learning.

But this Lv Yun simply wouldn’t listen and insisted that he was.

And now, he even threatened Jing Yan.

Jing Yan was not someone who feared trouble.

Moreover, Jing Yan was a Second-level Alchemist, and Lv Yun, merely a First-level Alchemist, dared to defame and threaten a Second-level Alchemist.

It was impressive that Jing Yan didn’t lose his temper on the spot.

But Lv Yun, persistent and bothersome, what did he take Jing Yan for?

In terms of medicine preparation skills, Jing Yan was far beyond Lv Yun’s reach!
