The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron Chapter 954

Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Master Zhong Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Master Zhong “Let's all say a bit less, shall we?”

At this moment, finally, someone stood out to mediate, not wishing for the situation to escalate. Otherwise, it was feared that the Master Conference would not be able to proceed normally.

Master Zhong's expression was extremely unpleasant as he fixed his murky eyes on Fang Lin and said sternly, “With him present at this Master Conference, it would be better for this old man not to participate.”

Once these words were said, many Masters of Pill were alarmed. If Master Zhong didn't attend the Master Conference, it would be a laughingstock if the news got out.

“Fang Lin, get out of here!” the old woman shouted angrily, intending to expel Fang Lin from the Master Conference and make him lose face.

“We'll stand or fall together with Master Zhong.” Several Masters of Pill declared their stance, aligning with Master Zhong. They made it clear that as long as Fang Lin was at the Master Conference, they would leave and resolutely not participate.

This put the other Masters of Pill in an awkward position, as some of them looked at Fang Lin unsure of what to do.

“Is the Master Conference to be such a farce? This is uninteresting,” Fang Lin shook his head, seemingly unconcerned, appearing even more nonchalant.

“Fang Lin, you, being the junior, have been disrespectful to Master Zhong, and you even injured Master Ling. Even if you possess the status of a Master of Pill, the Pill Alliance will not spare you,” someone said harshly.

Fang Lin looked disdainful, “I haven't done anything, yet as soon as I arrived, a bunch of people jumped out to target me. But I'm used to it. After all, an outstanding person is envied and excluded no matter where they go.”

Hearing his words, everyone had odd expressions on their faces. How dare Fang Lin boast like that, plastering gold on his own face. Claiming to be outstanding, his shamelessness was indeed staggering.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the Master Conference is not child's play. We are all fellow practitioners of the Pill Alliance. Is it really appropriate to fight amongst ourselves like this?” At that moment, another person stood up to speak.

And as soon as this individual spoke up, they immediately attracted the gazes of many, and a lot of people showed him respect.

This person looked middle-aged with a handsome face and a tall stature. He didn't look like a Pill Refiner, but more like a powerful Martial Artist.

Fang Lin was also looking at this person, but he had never seen him before.

“Master Long's words are sensible. We are all Pill Refiners. Let's not harm the harmony,” Master Mu hurriedly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin immediately guessed a bit of the situation, surmising that the middle-aged man must be a Master of Pill from the Long Family. Fang Lin also thought that this person bore some resemblance to Long Zhiming.

The middle-aged man referred to as Master Long glanced at Fang Lin, his eyes showing a hint of goodwill.

Fang Lin naturally felt the other's goodwill and nodded towards Master Long.

Only then did Fang Lin notice that several Masters of Pill were sitting beside Master Long, who seemed to be members of the Long Family.

Fang Lin sighed inwardly, not surprised by the number of Masters of Pill belonging to such an Alchemy Tao family.

Of course, the presence of several Masters of Pill from the Long Family did not mean that the Long Family only had these few Masters of Pill.

The Master Conference only allowed the participation of idle Masters of Pill who had no official duties, so surely the Long Family would have more Masters of Pill. The others were simply occupied with positions within the Pill Alliance and could not attend the Master Conference.

Similarly, the other Alchemy Tao families would assuredly have no shortage of Masters of Pill, but idle Masters of Pill were indeed few.

Even Pill Refiners, who were supposed to be pure of heart and have little desire, seldom resisted the temptation of power and influence. The Masters of Pill were no different.

Most Alchemy Tao grandmasters from various prestigious alchemy families serve in the Pill Alliance, with only a minority choosing to lead a leisurely life, concentrating mainly on Alchemy Tao.

When Master Long spoke, he seemed to advocate for peace, but everyone present was sharp enough to discern that his words were subtly defending Fang Lin.

Realizing this, many showed a slight change in their expressions.

This was indeed interesting. Master Zhong targeted Fang Lin, while Master Long seemed to defend him. Both grandmasters held high prestige in the Pill Alliance, especially Master Long who hailed from the Long Family, with an exceptionally extraordinary background.

“Hmph, I have already said that if Fang Lin does not leave, I will not participate in the Master Conference,” Master Zhong said, blatantly trying to force Fang Lin out.

Fang Lin flashed a thin smile, completely unconcerned, “Old man, despite your age, when it comes to pill refining, you're no match for me.”

“What did you say?” Master Zhong immediately became enraged. He had always had great confidence in his alchemy technique and did not take other masters of pill seriously. He especially looked down on younger grandmasters like Fang Lin.

In Master Zhong's opinion, the fact that Fang Lin had become a master of pill at such a young age definitely involved some trickery. There was no way it could be so astonishing without some crooked method.

Therefore, Master Zhong despised and rejected Fang Lin even more, believing he did not deserve to be a master of pill.

But for Fang Lin to dare look down on him? This was something Master Zhong could not tolerate. As a pill refiner, especially one as proud and skilled as he was, he would not allow anyone to question him.

“Very well! It's been years since someone questioned my Alchemy Tao skills. Today I must teach you a lesson in disrespect, and show you what a true master of pill is!” said Master Zhong, his face filled with wrath, repeating the word “very well” thrice, indicating how furious he was.

Even in his rage, Master Zhong did not act rashly but intended to teach Fang Lin a lesson with his alchemy skills.

“Let's forget it, you're already of such old age. Save your energy to retire at home. Pill refining is quite the physical labor,” Fang Lin said with a laugh, teasing Master Zhong about his age.

“Ridiculous, I've spent a lifetime refining pills. When I stepped into the realm of grandmasters, you were not even born yet. And you dare look down on me!” Master Zhong said, now truly angered and intent on giving Fang Lin a harsh lesson.

Fang Lin shrugged his shoulders, “Since you insist, senior, I will accompany you. It's a good opportunity to show certain individuals targeting me that if they lack strength, they better scram!”

“Ridiculous!”

“Overestimating oneself!”

“He actually wants to compete in pill refining with Master Zhong?”

“This kid is way too arrogant!”

“Even if he's a genius, it's a pity he doesn't know his own limits.”

Many of the Alchemy Tao grandmasters present shook their heads, believing Fang Lin was too arrogant, actually wanting to compete in pill refining with Master Zhong.

Even Master Long, who spoke on behalf of Fang Lin, frowned slightly, feeling that Fang Lin's decision was rather rash.

Even he had to admire Master Zhong for his Alchemy Tao skill. In the entire Pill Alliance, probably no one dared claim they could surpass Master Zhong in the field of alchemy.

Where did Fang Lin get his confidence from?
