Chapter 16.2: Luo Yun Chang Advances
Everyone’s expression changed greatly as they looked at one another, shock written in their faces. They were all Arcane Masters so they naturally knew what a Yin Wind Stone was.
Yan Lei leaned forward and seriously said, “Su Yuan Qiao, you can’t speak carelessly! I know that you have always disliked Jia Rong. When he was still an apprentice, you had to make things difficult for him many times!”
Su Yuan Qiao smiled coldly. “I’m casually accusing him? At this moment, I’m afraid that the poison had already seeped deep into his bone marrow! I sent people to investigate the materials he bought after his promotion. They are antidotes! He was trying to buy the Poison Refinement Pellet at a high price. Everyone should know what a Poison Refinement Pellet is, right? According to legends, there is a fourth-level medicine that could cure any ailments. But it is hard to come by––even if it’s worth ten thousand gold! After returning home, albeit hurriedly, he went in closed door cultivation. He must be desperate to use poison against poison. Even the Poison Refinement Pellet could not help him. I estimate that he is now completely useless!”
Xu Han’s face gradually grew unsightly.
Su Yuan Qiao took out a list and passed it to everyone. “The list records his action after advancing as a true alchemist refiner. Everyone take a look.”
Everyone glanced a look at the list, their eyes filled with worry.
In the end, the list of ingredients was passed into Luo Yun Chang’s hands. Her heart trembled slightly. Even Jia Rong’s three meals per day were recorded clearly. It seemed like this Su Yuan Qiao had already thought of something. Since Jia Rong’s name jumped out at this time, Su Yuan Qiao must have had full confidence in himself. Jia Rong would most likely not be able to escape this calamity!
“If you all still have any doubts, you can call Jia Rong over to take a look. He has been inside the tower since he came back five days ago.” When Su Yuan Qiao saw that a large majority of the people believed him, he snorted triumphantly.
Su Yuan Qiao sneered. “Ever since Jia Rong was promoted as an alchemist master refiner, he gave up on cultivating the martial way and wholeheartedly focused on the path of alchemy. The cultivation of an alchemist refiner mainly nourishes their soul power. Only through continuous refinement can one’s soul power be strengthened. He’s a first-ranked Warrior Alchemist. Five days should be enough for him to refine anything. Yan Lei, you are so protective of Jian Rong. Could it be that you were also part of the process in helping him use the Yin Wind Stone?”
Yan Lei flew into a fit of rage. “Nonsense!”
Xu Han lowered his voice. “Stop arguing! Jiang Cheng, go bring Jia Rong over! No matter what he’s doing, it doesn’t matter! Fetch him right this instant!”
Xu Han was the president of Sky Water Nation’s Arcane Master’s Associaton and also one of the only two third-ranked Grand Master Alchemist in Sky Water Nation. His status was as high as the King’s. The other third-ranked Arcane Master was the Chief Arcane Master of the palace, Zhang Qingfan. The strength of the two was about the same!
Not only was an Arcane Master a symbol of strength, it was also a symbol of nobility; the pride of all Arcane Masters! As the president of the Arcane Master’s Association, he would never allow something like a fraud to happen.
Very quickly, Jia Rong followed behind Jiang Cheng and arrived at the examination grounds on the fourth floor. When his gaze swept across Su Yuan Qiao, the corners of his mouth curled up in an undetectable smile. In the end, his gaze landed on Luo Yun Chang. “I heard from Jiang Cheng that Master Yun Chang has also advanced to become a first-ranked Warrior Alchemist. She is truly a genius. Among the five commanders of the national Divine Guard, Master Yun Chang is considered to be the strongest in terms of overall strength! ”
Luo Yun Chang nodded her head. “Master Jia is flattering me. The other four commanders are much stronger than Yun Chang. I was just lucky.”
Jia Rong smiled. He did not deny it and loudly said, “President Xu, I am currently in closed door cultivation to refine a pill. May I know what business you have called me here in such a hurry? Could it be to celebrate Yun Chang’s breakthrough?”
A hint of doubt flashed through Su Yuan Qiao’s eyes. According to his estimation, Jia Rong’s complexion wasn’t so good. He coldly snorted and said, “Hmph! Jia Rong, you really know how to pretend. You’re still pretending to be fine even now!”
Xu Han took out the list and threw it to Jia Rong. He stared at Jia Rong with bright eyes and said word by word: “Su Yuan Qiao suspects that you used a Yin Wind Stone during the last assessment. This is the investigation he has been conducting on you. I need you to give everyone an explanation!”
Jia Rong snorted coldly. He took the list and looked at it, immediately becoming angry.
【 This old bastard actually sent people to follow me!】
【Luckily, Young Master Yun cured the poison in my body and even taught me the art of soul refinement, otherwise, my reputation would have been ruined and I would be doomed to never return!】
At this moment, his gratitude towards Yun Xiao gushed out like a spring.
“Su Yuan Qiao, you old fool! It should be you trying to give me an explanation!” Jia Rong heavily threw the list onto the ground and angrily said, “President, if I have used a Yin Wind Stones before, you can easily detect it, but if you have not, I need Old Man Su to give me an explanation!”
Xu Han nodded his head. “I will. Reach down and cover your body with your hands. At the same time, completely retract your spiritual sense. We will thoroughly examine your body’s condition.”
Su Yuan Qiao grinned fiendishly. “An explanation? When we find out what your problem is, let’s see how you die then!”
Jia Rong suddenly smiled and proudly raised his head. “I, Jia Rong, am sitting straight, do whatever you want to me. Come on!”
