The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: Arrogant as Expected

The Yunxia Sect and Piaomiao Pill Tower are very close to each other, even walking slowly, it takes just a cup of tea’s time to get from one end to the other.

Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, is very familiar with the Sect Master and elders of Yunxia Sect, often exchanging with them.

Had it not been for a good relationship, Yunxia Sect wouldn’t have invited many high-level Divine Pill Masters to Cloud Mist City, giving Gu Cuo a chance to host them.

”Haha... I really must thank the Yunxia Sect, recently Piaomiao Pill Tower has certainly gained quite a bit.” Gu Cuo said hurriedly, gesturing with his hand.

Xiao Wangyue waved his hand and said, ”Building Owner Gu Cuo, we came today just to invite the Pill Masters. Now, are the Pill Masters all inside the Pill Tower?”

Xiao Wangyue is concerned about the sect’s Lan Mu spiritual root.

”All the Pill Masters are in the top floor lobby of the Pill Tower, I’ll take you up there right away.” Gu Cuo nodded quickly.

”Is Pill Master Zhen Qing also there?” Xiao Wangyue asked again.

Though dozens of high-level Divine Pill Masters have come from various places, Xiao Wangyue and others care most about Pill Master Zhen Qing. In their eyes, hope for restoring the Lan Mu spiritual root lies on Pill Master Zhen Qing.

”He’s there. Earlier, Mr. Zhen Qing was still explaining Alchemy Dao in the hall. Mr. Zhen Qing’s level of Alchemy Dao is indeed very profound,” Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, said with a smile.

”Naturally, Mr. Zhen Qing has won the top prize at the Pill Dao Conference, undoubtedly the pride of our Vast Smoke Divine Realm,” Xiao Wangyue said with gleaming eyes.

Zhen Qing is a Pill Master of the Vast Smoke Divine Realm.

”By the way, not only is Mr. Zhen Qing there, Mr. Yan Jin is also present,” Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, turned his rhetoric.

At this moment, in Gu Cuo’s heart, Jing Yan’s position is certainly no less than Zhen Qing’s. In fact, if Gu Cuo had to choose between the two, he wouldn’t hesitate to choose Jing Yan.

The reason is simple, no matter how much he flatters Zhen Qing, it’s difficult for Zhen Qing to become his friend. But the situation is different with Yan Jin Alchemist, not to mention Yan Jin Alchemist’s greater potential, just relying on his relationship with Hao Yuntian makes being friends with Yan Jin Alchemist much more likely than with Pill Master Zhen Qing.

Therefore, when speaking of Zhen Qing, Gu Cuo definitely wouldn’t leave Jing Yan out.

Upon hearing Gu Cuo’s words, Xiao Wangyue and Qi Mei’s expressions changed slightly, and their brows furrowed.

Yan Jin Alchemist?

They certainly aren’t unfamiliar with this name. Two months ago, Yun Tian brought a person named Yan Jin back to Yunxia Sect, even wanting a quota for the Immortal Bridge Meeting from the sect.

”Building Owner Gu Cuo, the Yan Jin Alchemist you’re talking about, is he the young man who was with Yun Tian?” Xiao Wangyue casually asked.

”Exactly this Mr. Yan Jin, though young, he’s a high-level Divine Pill Master,” Gu Cuo nodded emphatically.

Xiao Wangyue frowned, looking at Gu Cuo.

Once he confirmed that the Yan Jin Alchemist Gu Cuo was talking about is indeed the same person Yun Tian brought, his interest waned. However, he sensed that Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, seemed to regard Yan Jin with great importance. When he mentioned Yan Jin’s name, the respect in his expression didn’t seem feigned.

The second sect master, Qi Mei, also focused her attention on Gu Cuo, the Building Owner.

Xiao Wangyue inwardly sneered, thinking perhaps Gu Cuo too has listened to Yun Tian, overestimating the person named Yan Jin.

Xiao Wangyue knows well that Hao Yuntian and Gu Cuo’s relationship is very close; they have been old friends for countless millennia, like brothers. Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, surely trusts Hao Yuntian greatly.

”Building Owner Gu Cuo, perhaps Yun Tian has overestimated Yan Jin’s abilities,” Xiao Wangyue, as the sect master of Yunxia Sect and a Nine Tripods Main God, certainly couldn’t directly say Gu Cuo was deceived.

His words were somewhat tactful, spoken out of their past good relationship with Yunxia Sect. Whether Gu Cuo understands or cares about it, he doesn’t bother to concern himself.

”That Yan Jin Alchemist, he’s very young, even younger than Hao Yang,” the second sect master, Qi Mei, also spoke.

Upon hearing the two sect master’s words, Gu Cuo immediately understood. These two sect masters must have underestimated Yan Jin Alchemist.

”Sect Masters, here I must say a few more words.” Gu Cuo paused, speaking earnestly, ”That Mr. Yan Jin’s Alchemy Dao abilities are definitely not inferior. In my view, he might not be below Mr. Zhen Qing.”

”What did you say?” The sect masters’ eyes suddenly gathered.

Even the several elders of Yunxia Sect all turned their gaze abruptly to Gu Cuo, the Building Owner.

They had heard about Yun Tian bringing Jing Yan and Hao Yang to Yunxia Sect. They, too, supported the sect master’s decision that the quota for the Immortal Bridge Meeting, being limited to three, should not be casually given to outsiders, hence no one bothered to inquire further into this matter.

”In fact, just earlier today, while Mr. Zhen Qing was discussing Alchemy Dao, some conflict occurred between him and Mr. Yan Jin,” Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, continued to speak.

”Indeed arrogant, to actually conflict with Mr. Zhen Qing!” Xiao Wangyue sneered coldly; his discontent with Jing Yan grew strong.

Qi Mei furrowed her brow but remained silent. She felt that Yan Jin Alchemist didn’t seem like someone careless in judgment; how could there be a conflict with Zhen Qing rudely?

”The conflict between Mr. Yan Jin and Mr. Zhen Qing isn’t Mr. Yan Jin’s fault. It’s just that Mr. Yan Jin didn’t show the same degree of reverence as other Pill Masters toward Mr. Zhen Qing.” Gu Cuo chuckled, deriding Xiao Wangyue’s disdainful view of Yan Jin Alchemist.

After the conflict, both Pill Masters developed an inclination towards a competition...” Gu Cuo led the group toward the top floor of the Pill Tower, recounting the events in the upper floor hall on the way.

As Gu Cuo narrated, Xiao Wangyue and others’ expressions began to look serious.

Xiao Wangyue and Qi Mei exchanged a glance.

Is it possible, that Yan Jin Alchemist truly possesses considerable skills? Have I misjudged?

”Building Owner Gu Cuo, does the Void Breaking Pill truly exist?” Xiao Wangyue’s gaze shifted, speaking with a tremor.

”The Void Breaking Pill Mr. Yan Jin offered is undoubtedly genuine, its effects demonstrated on the spot are remarkable. The one who tested the pill was none other than my nephew. Beforehand, my nephew was merely an ordinary nine-star Void God, and entering True God Realm was unlikely in a short time, even with my support.”

”However, after consuming the Void Breaking Pill, within less than four hours, my nephew went from being a nine-star Void God to entering the True God Realm. Now, he is in seclusion stabilizing at the Dao Palace.” Gu Cuo, the Building Owner, spoke with a sighing tone.

”This... the Void Breaking Pill truly exists in our God Realm?”

”But how is this possible? Over countless years, how many powerful Pill Masters in the God Realm have tried to research the Void Breaking Pill, yet none have been able to refine it!” Several elders of Yunxia Sect couldn’t help but voice their disbelief.
