Eternal Pill Emperor

Even the sound of their breathing had been suppressed to the lowest.    

Gu Xuan's lips curled into a smile, as he quietly stared at Li Yuanfang.    

Li Yuanfang's forehead was already starting to perspire.    

The remaining nine people of Li Family clenched their fists, their faces were covered in sweat as well.    

Gu Xuan's question, no matter how he replied, was still a huge pit.    

If Gu Xuan directly asked this question, they would have a myriad of excuses, and even if there were loopholes, they could still reprimand Gu Xuan for being unreasonable.    

However, Gu Xuan had used two questions and laid a foundation twice. It could even be said that he had dug two small holes and was waiting for them to step into it.    

In the end, he would realize that standing in front of a giant crater, regardless of whether he jumped or not, was very embarrassing.    

With just a few problems with the Li Family, Gu Xuan was able to establish both Pill Domain and Pill-Refining Master Guild, making it seem like he had done something despicable and unjustly that would not make sense.    

But Gu Xuan's question, had also changed Li Family's accusation this time, turning it into a bad image of a "nameless teacher coming out of hiding", "making trouble without reason".    

It was only now that everyone realized how ingenious Gu Xuan's two questions from before were.    

First, the Eastern Jade Sage was obsessed with the Pill Dao, so in order to refine pills, he could not be bothered even when her Li Family was under attack. She had to finish refining the pellets first before she could force back the enemy.    

Secondly, the Eastern Jade Sage was a modest and virtuous man. Any enemy who wanted to kill him would have to rely on their charm to make him submit, change their personality, and not kill them directly.    

Would such a Eastern Jade Sage come and create trouble, denounce, challenge and even kill Gu Xuan after knowing that he had built both Pill Domain?    

With all this effort, he might as well choose to continue getting addicted to the Pill Dao!    

From the beginning till the end, the people from the Li Family had never said that they would kill Gu Xuan, but the killing intent in their eyes could not be concealed.    

In the end, Gu Xuan took the opportunity to ask him his third question.    

Eastern Jade Sage, would she?    

The answer was obvious.    

Eastern Jade Sage, no!    

This was the biggest pit. Everyone knew the answer, and the people from the Li Family were even more clear about it, because the Eastern Jade Sage was intoxicated with the Pill Dao.    

However, they couldn't answer him.    

Because they knew the consequences. Once they answered Gu Xuan's fourth question, they would be hit down like a violent storm.    

Gu Xuan's fourth question, was naturally the one that Li Yuanfang had posed to him before.    

Moreover, this question had already been hanging in Gu Xuan's throat for who knows how long, and he was ready to blurt it out at any moment.    

"If even the Eastern Jade Sage would not do such a thing, then as the descendants of the Eastern Jade Sage, what qualifications do you have to do so? How could she dare to do that?    

You all, are even going to defy the will of the Eastern Jade Sage? "    

Of course, there was also an answer.    

In order to prove that their master was famous, people with Li Family could always answer with the word "know".    

However, once this word came out, all of the consequences and effects that it brought about were absolutely something that the entire Li Family family would find hard to accept.    

From then on, all the beautiful rumors about the Eastern Jade Sage would disappear like smoke in thin air.    

Li Family, would become the biggest joke in Burning Heaven Continent.    

Whether it was the answer "will" or "will not", it was a huge pit.    

If it was someone as eloquent as Gu Xuan, this might be able to resolve Gu Xuan's problem.    

However, Li Yuanfang and the rest did not have that capability.    

As a result, the atmosphere became stifling.    

Below the stage, the alchemists who had been doubting whether or not they should join Pill-Refining Master Guild had already broken free from their shackles in their hearts.    

"Yeah, even the Eastern Jade Sage will not stop Master Gu Xuan from establishing his Pill Domain, so what's wrong with me joining it?    

Furthermore, by joining it, it would benefit the alchemists' unity, allow them to receive Gu Xuan's guidance, and improve their own Pill Dao.    

A Pill Emperor said firmly.    

The rest of the alchemists followed his words and steeled their confidence.    

The eyes of the ten people from Li Family nearly spouted fire.    

The tricky questions that they had painstakingly researched were easily resolved by Gu Xuan just like that.    

Finally, after an unknown period of time, Li Yuanfang took a deep breath, and wisely decided to no longer be entangled with Gu Xuan on this issue.    

"As expected, Pill Monarch Gu Xuan has a glib tongue like the rumors.    

Since you did not answer my question, I do not think it is necessary for me to answer yours. "    

Li Yuanfang revealed the truth, which meant, in the clash of words, he had already admitted defeat.    

However, the reason the Li Family came today, was not to bicker with Gu Xuan!    

As matters stood, it was already impossible to use the name of the Eastern Jade Sage to occupy the upper hand of morals and righteousness, she might as well just directly tear off all decorum!    

Li Yuanfang said in a stern voice, "Looking at the Burning Heaven Continent, no matter if it was before or now, I am the only one who has the qualifications to establish Pill Domain!    

You, Gu Xuan, are just a random person born in a Pill Monarch. Gathering all the alchemists here and refining pills for you is just a personal gain!    

No matter how eloquent you are, those tattered and crappy sects that are selling medicinal pellets along the way have already exposed your unscrupulous ambition without a doubt.    

You just want to make use of the medicinal pills and the profits of all the alchemists! "    

Gu Xuan's mouth hooked up into a smile, and stared at Li Yuanfang like he was staring at a fool?    

"Using pills to earn money? Aren't you talking nonsense? This was something that all the alchemists present were unaware of.    

Not to mention them, even the other major powers in the underworld knew of this as well.    

There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. I gave out the medicinal ingredients, the pill formulas, and even the Pill Dao to answer the alchemists' questions so that they can stay here and help me refine pills.    

is it really a problem to take what we need from each other and benefit from each other? "    

"You …"    

Li Yuanfang was trembling from anger. He thought that since he had revealed Gu Xuan's' scheme ', Gu Xuan would try his best to conceal it, but he did not expect that he would admit it immediately.    

"Shut up! I'm not done yet. "    

Gu Xuan rolled his eyes at Li Yuanfang.    

"Still, there is no such thing as a free lunch.    

If you don't sell pills for profit, do you think that the medicinal ingredients, Pill Cauldron, and all sorts of rare flames required to refine pills were all blown from the gale?    

Don't mention me, Gu Xuan, is your Li Family not going to refine pills for profit?    

Then tell me, with the deep roots of your Li Family, the things you eat and drink, and the ten Pill Cauldron behind your back, where did you pick them up from? The northwest wind? "    

"Puchi!"    

Lu Jingjing, who was below the stage, covered her mouth and laughed.    

At this moment, even the crowd of alchemists started to laugh.    

Although Gu Xuan's words were a little vulgar, but the general direction was definitely correct.    

Other than raising the Pill Dao, the purpose of refining pills was obviously to exchange for money.    

Without money, how could he forge pills?    

He could find the ingredients himself, but what about the Pill Cauldron?    

He couldn't possibly have to learn refining before concocting pills, right?    

Didn't I have to pay for it? Exchange for medicinal pills?    

Therefore, the fact that Gu Xuan was using pills to make a profit was untenable.    

To be honest, alchemists would not be gathered here by Gu Xuan.    

The identity of the Pill Monarch did not have much of a cohesive force.    

The only benefit that the identity of the Pill Monarch could bring was cohesion.    

The emotions of the ten people with Li Family were already on the verge of exploding.
