C222 A Chess Match

After Gu Woo left, a figure walked out from behind the scenes.

This was an extremely beautiful woman. Compared to Hsiao Hsingyu, who was dressed in female clothing, she looked more youthful and lively, like the blazing sun of summer.

"Big brother, will Gu Woo give the cherry blossom powder to his saviour?" The woman asked.

Hsiao Hsingyu smiled and said, "Do you know who that Gu Woo is?"

The girl looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Everyone knows that Gu Woo is a sword fanatic. He came to Fengchi City three years ago. But many people don't know that Gu Woo is also a swordsmith. The giant sword on his back was created by his wife's body. The purpose was to let the sword open the Wisdom. However, it was a pity that... He had failed. Such a person had an obsession with the sword spirit. Even the person next to the pillow could merge with the hot iron furnace. What's more, a mere benefactor?"

Hsiao Hsingyu said slowly. His voice was deep and magnetic, but the content was terrifying.

The woman was stunned and then sighed. "No wonder you agreed with Bai Ningzhu, Gu Woo, but would Ye Xu fall for it?"

When the word "Ye Xu" was mentioned, a trace of jealousy flashed in the woman's eyes.

"Little Zhen, you have to know that people have complicated relationships with other people. If you save a person, it is very likely that you will be less vigilant of him. The hidden consciousness will make you think that he is' one of us'."

Hsiao Hsingyu smiled and said, "Ye Xu is just a teenager, how would he know that the people of this world are evil. Besides, what does it have to do with me if he fails? "

This was the plan to drive the wolf and devour the tiger. If Gu Woo failed, it would be Gu Woo who bore the brunt of Ye Xu's anger, and it would not affect them for the time being.

Little Zhen looked at Hsiao Hsingyu with admiration.

"Big brother, you are really amazing!"

"You have always been the strongest man in Hsiao Family since young!"

"Big brother, don't worry. Even if it hurts to death, Little Zhen will definitely become your Medicine Man!"

...

Ye Xu received a letter.

In fact, he would receive letters from his family and Profound Dragon Sect every month.

But this letter was a little unusual.

"Gu Woo invites me to the Wind Listening Tower?"

Although he saved Gu Woo's life, he did it conveniently. When Gu Woo was saved, he did not say much to him. Now, after a few days, he came to talk to him. He did not know what it was.

Unfortunately, Ye Xu was not the kind of person who was full of curiosity. He was very busy. He was so busy that he even had to squeeze out his meal time. Sometimes, he even used medicinal pills to deal with it.

Gu Woo did not say what it was about. It was definitely not an urgent matter. Ye Xu replied with a letter that indicated that he did not have time recently, so he threw this matter to the back of his mind.

He did not know that he had escaped a disaster, nor did he know that the deeper darkness was brewing.

As the date of the Pill Refining Conference approached, the atmosphere in Medicine Valley became more and more lively.

Different from the previous sessions, the security of this year's Pill Refining Conference was especially strict. Not only did it have many experts overseeing it, but it was also very serious about registering their identities.

Under the gazes of everyone, the sun rose from the east, shining brightly. The Pill Refining Conference had finally begun.

The Hsiao Family of the Northern Lands, the Southern Sea's Pill Sect, the Mystic Pill Sect of the snowy plains, and other powers had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to participate in this Pill Refining Assembly. There were even some famous pill refining grandmasters who came to watch.

Yaoguang's master, Wu Wen, was one of the judges of this Pill Refining Conference.

The bustling crowds broke the peaceful and quiet Medicine Valley. If it wasn't for the fact that the venue of the Medicine Valley was large enough, perhaps it wouldn't be able to contain so many Pill Refining Master.

Mo Wu gave a few old opening remarks and sat on the tall platform with a group of big shots.

The first round of competition was obviously between First Grade and Third Grade.

A large portion of the people from the previous written test had already been eliminated. Now, the competition was about the foundation of alchemy, condensing, and so on.

Many First Grade and Second Grade Pill Refining Master did not dare to participate in the competition. Therefore, this was actually a competition between Third Grade Pill Refining Master.

"Ye Xu, I trust you've been well since we last met."

Hsiao Hsingyu was wearing a blue robe, and he was looking at Hsiao Hsingyu with a gentle and gentle expression. Next to him was a pretty girl who was dressed like a maid.

Ye Xu sniffed. He could keenly feel that the background of the pretty girl had a medicinal fragrance.

Since Hsiao Hsingyu came to greet him, Ye Xu naturally could not be impolite, no matter how unhappy he was with this person.

He nodded, smiled, and greeted her. After that, he turned around and left.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Little Zhen said angrily, "This Ye Xu really doesn't know what's good for him. Big brother, you are the next heir of Hsiao Family. How can he treat you like this!"

"It's nothing. Some geniuses naturally have their own pride."

Hsiao Hsingyu said with a friendly smile, but his tone was cold. "I just don't know if he can still be proud of me after all his talent and relationships have been crippled."

Little Truth said, "Brother, Ye Xu also participated in this alchemy assembly, and he is also a Third Grade Pill Refining Master."

"I know." Hsiao Hsingyu's tone became calm. "Father wants me to get the first prize. This is a big matter. A mere Ye Xu can wait until the alchemy assembly is over."

He didn't take Ye Xu seriously at all. Even though Ye Xu had become a Third Grade Pill Refining Master at such a young age, in Hsiao Hsingyu's eyes, Ye Xu couldn't be compared with him.

"He is a mediocre person who is not envied by others." Ye Xu felt very good about himself and sighed. He could feel the faint hostility from Hsiao Hsingyu.

But so what? The Alchemist Grand Meeting was a place that relied on the power of the alchemist. The outstanding Pill Refining Master that came from all over the world had the same goal - to get the first place!

"Yaoguang, do you have confidence?" Ye Xu asked.

"Don't worry, young master. Yaoguang won't embarrass you."

Although Yaoguang was only a First Grade Pill Refining Master, under Wu Wen's guidance, her foundation was extremely solid. That was why she was ranked eighth in the written exam.

Ye Xu was even more amazing. With the Extreme Dao Pill Book, who else in the world could be better than him in theory?

However, he did not participate in the written test. Instead, he directly got the "free pass."

This was the quota for the Medicine Valley. Some of the noble disciples were always unhappy to participate in the preliminary and second round with those weak Pill Refining Master.

After their strength was assessed, as long as they weren't special, they would be able to get a "free pass."

Hsiao Hsingyu was also a part of the quota. As the future patriarch of the Hsiao Family, his talent was amazing. Of course, he didn't need to participate in the preliminary round.

As time passed, the top ten of the Third Grade had gradually come out.

As for those noble disciples who had been vacated from the competition, they would have to concoct pills as well.

When Hsiao Hsingyu received the news and found out that Ye Xu was also a free man, a complicated feeling emerged in his heart for the first time.

He was not afraid of Ye Xu's cultivation realm, because as the future patriarch of Hsiao Family, there were many experts who wanted to befriend him.2

Even someone as strong as Gu Woo, who was at the fourth level of the Core Gathering Stage, was willing to submit to him for the sake of Bai Ningzhu.

However, he didn't expect that the Medicine Valley would be willing to give the empty slot to Ye Xu. This meant that Ye Xu's talent in alchemy was far greater than ordinary people.

Hsiao Hsingyu felt very unhappy. The matter had gone beyond his expectation. He no longer treated Ye Xu as a chess piece on the chessboard.

When he met his opponent in a game of chess, he decided to defeat Ye Xu fair and square!
