A Good Romance

Liu Han was enraged, and she retorted, "You took an alchemical pill from someone else's body and pretended that it was refined by you!"
"Silly girl," Ling Han said disdainfully.
"What did you say?" Liu Han raised her eyebrows, her anger evident in her words and actions.
"Didn't you hear me clearly? Silly girl, silly girl, silly girl!" Ling Han said 'silly girl' three times in a row.
Liu Han was about to explode with anger, and she wanted nothing more than to pounce on Ling Han and bite him. Since young, when had anyone ever called her a silly girl? Not only was she a genius in Martial Art, but she was also incredibly beautiful. She had the title of the second most beautiful woman in the Wide Prosperity Heaven. It was normal for men to stare at her.
You're such a blind idiot.
"That's mine! It's mine!" Ran Fei hurriedly shouted. Otherwise, the truth would be revealed.
"It's yours!" Ling Han sneered. "Don't you know that every alchemist has the habit of adding their own brand onto the alchemical pills they refine?" He infused some Origin Power into the pill, and it instantly glowed. It was possible to vaguely see the word "Ling" imprinted on the pill.
Everyone instantly burst into an uproar.
It was clear that this alchemical pill definitely belonged to Ling Han. Otherwise, why would Ran Fei brand his own alchemical pill with the word "Ling"? Was this a sign of his deep affection for Ling Han?
Ran Fei was instantly rendered speechless, and his face instantly turned bright red. This kind of shady business had been exposed in front of everyone, so he was naturally going to lose all face.
Liu Han was also speechless. She hadn't expected that Ling Han had really been wrongly accused.
"Senior Brother Ran must have accidentally accepted the wrong alchemical pill," Zhu Zijun said, casually tossing Ran Fei's responsibility to the side.
No one present was an idiot, so they naturally burst into an uproar when they heard this. Zhu Zijun was far too shameless! He had just wrongly accused Ran Fei, yet now he had completely pushed the blame onto Ran Fei. They had never seen anyone as shameless as Zhu Zijun.
Ling Han didn't care about this for now. He said, "Who else is an alchemist? Please help me appraise this pill."
"Leave it to me." Liu Jie smiled, "Although I am not an alchemist, I have some understanding of alchemy. At the very least, appraising it won't be a problem."
Ling Han looked at him, nodded, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Liu."
He handed the medicinal pill over, and Liu Jie examined it for a moment. "This is a Jade Cloud Pill," he said. "It's one of the most difficult two-star medicinal pills to concoct. It should be a high-grade pill, and the number of spirit enhancements it can perform is threefold."
What? Three times?
In an instant, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Even if they didn't know how difficult it was to refine the Jade Cloud Pill, the fact that it had undergone a threefold Spirit Refinement was enough to explain the problem.
The Fourth Refinement was the end point for most alchemists. The Fifth Refinement could be called a Grandmaster.
This fellow is too ferocious, isn't he? In terms of Martial Art, he has stepped into the ranks of Emperors, and in terms of Alchemy, he has also reached the Third Refinement. He isn't too far away from the Fifth Refinement Grandmaster.
Most importantly, Ling Han was too young. If he could perform the Third Refinement at such a young age, then the Fifth Refinement was definitely not an extravagant hope.
Yan Wei was completely dumbfounded. The medicinal pill that his opponent had concocted was more difficult than his, and its quality was higher than his. Even the number of spirit enhancements was higher than his. This was a crushing defeat in all aspects. He held onto a sliver of hope, and asked, "What about the quality of the Spirit Refinement?"
"A threefold Spirit Refinement can be considered perfect, but the Third Refinement is slightly inferior. However, the imperfections do not obscure the brilliance," Liu Jie evaluated. He really wasn't biased towards anyone, and was speaking the truth.
Yan Wei had nothing to say.
In truth, even if Ling Han's threefold Spirit Refinement was only ordinary, as long as he had the upper hand in terms of numbers, he would have an absolute advantage. Yan Wei was just struggling on his deathbed, and now, his last shred of hope had been shattered.
"Mo Shuang, collect the wager." Ling Han snapped his fingers. This was the reason why he was willing to participate in this battle. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to put on such a show in front of everyone.
Mo Shuang excitedly collected the wager. He had really profited greatly this time. Although there were some lucky fellows who had bet on Ling Han to win, it was inevitable that others would have a share of the profits.
This caused many people to involuntarily glare at Ling Han and Mo Shuang in anger. These two were too much of a scammer. They were clearly so skilled in alchemy, yet they pretended to be pigs to prey on tigers. They were treating them like fools.
However, they were willing to accept their losses, so they had nothing to say. Going back on their word was not something that people of their statuses could do.
"Now, it's time to consider another matter." Ling Han turned to Zhu Zijun, and said, "You two stole my alchemical pills. As your senior, if I don't teach you a proper lesson, others will think that my Zi Cheng branch has no rules …"
There was a sinister expression on his face as he spoke these last words.
Zi Cheng!
Who was the most famous alchemist in the Eastern Celestial Realm?
Grandmaster Zi Cheng!
Could it be that Ling Han was Alchemist Zi Cheng's disciple? Wait … Grandmaster Zhu Feng was also Grandmaster Zi Cheng's disciple?
Grandmaster Zhu Feng had been expelled by Grandmaster Zi Cheng, so apart from a limited number of people, no one knew Grandmaster Zhu Feng's background. Now that they heard Ling Han's words, everyone finally connected the two of them.
Zhu Zijun's expression instantly changed. Ran Fei and Shi Yong didn't know about the relationship between Grandmaster Zhu Feng and Zi Cheng because they were a generation apart. However, he was very clear about this.
The fact that Ling Han could mention Grandmaster Zi Cheng meant that there was indeed a connection between him and Zi Cheng.
"Nonsense!" Ran Fei and Shi Yong rebuked in unison. This was especially so for Ran Fei. He had been slapped in the face by Ling Han, and his despicable act of stealing alchemical pills had been exposed in front of everyone. He had been thoroughly humiliated, and he hated Ling Han to the bone.
"Is that so?" Ling Han asked calmly. "Let's go back and ask Peng Huanian. I want to see what he says."
"You still want to take advantage of my master?!" Ran Fei jumped up, and said, "You bastard!"
Pa!
Ran Fei didn't even get a chance to finish his sentence before Zhu Zijun slapped him across the face. "Shut up!" Zhu Zijun rebuked harshly, causing Ran Fei to swallow the rest of his words.
An aggrieved expression appeared on his face as he looked at Zhu Zijun. 'Why did you hit me?!
Zhu Zijun was just about to speak when he suddenly sensed a familiar aura. He immediately turned around and walked toward the back. Nearby, there were two middle-aged men hurrying over. One of them was extraordinarily tall, while the other was short and fat. He looked like a meatball.
He faltered for a moment before hurriedly greeting them, "Uncle Ma, Uncle Chen."
These two middle-aged men were called Ma Yong and Chen Dong, and they were both Zhu Feng's disciples. Moreover, they had received his true inheritance. They were slightly inferior to Peng Huanian, but they were both Three-Star Tier cultivators.
Ma Yong and Chen Dong merely nodded at Zhu Zijun before quickly finding Ling Han in the crowd. They both stepped forward before clasping their hands in greeting, and said, "Disciples Ma Yong and Chen Dong pay their respects to Fourth Uncle."
Fourth Uncle!
The crowd instantly erupted into an uproar. No one doubted that Ling Han was Zhu Feng's Junior Brother anymore. Otherwise, there was no way that Ma Yong and Chen Dong would go crazy together.
Meanwhile, Zhu Zijun and the others' expressions were deathly pale. Ling Han's identity as Zhu Feng's Junior Brother wasn't a good thing for them. This meant that they would be punished for everything they had done in the future, and they would have to bear the consequences.
