Ultimate Scheming System - Chapter 831

Chapter 831


Two days passed by in a twinkle!

Xu Que was not used to living in this place . He was almost knocked out by the smell of the incense . Luckily, he could leave this place after two days . Otherwise, he would have left a long time ago!

Two days later, the Divine Pill Convention was opened finally . Generally speaking, this convention was a competition of alchemy . When Xu Que arrived, the open area outside the pagoda was full of onlookers .

More than 100 alchemy furnaces were placed in the center of this area . After a careful calculation, Xu Que counted at least 500 alchemy furnaces in this area! This meant that at least 500 people had signed up to enter this alchemy competition .

"How could so many alchemists gather in the Myriad Buddhas Sect? What if someone really makes the pills that could cure anorexia?" Xu Que said in surprise . After all, anorexia was just a knotty disease on Earth, which was not incurable . This vast World of cultivators was full of talented and capable cultivators . The anorexia couldn't stump everyone in this world! Xu Que frowned and worried someone would cure this disease ahead of him .

"Don't worry . If we fail this time, we can still talk to Lord Zeng!" Jiang Hongyan said gently as she held Xu Que's hand . She knew Xu Que quite well . If he was sure about something, he would be cheerful and confident instead of frowning .

Xu Que shook his head, "I'm not nervous, but worry someone could cure this disease ahead of me or, if the little Princess's anorexia is serious, the pills I make might not be effective enough to cure her!"

"It doesn't matter . Just go! I'll be right here waiting for you!" Jiang Hongyan said with a smile as she touched Xu Que's face gently .

Confidence was surging in Xu Que's heart . Then he said, nodding his head, "Wait for my victorious return!" After saying that, he moved forward into the competition area immediately . Meanwhile, Xu Que couldn't help but smile .

No wonder a successful man is always backed by a great woman!

Jiang Hongyan was not only great, but also considerate . She was absolutely a perfect woman who was beautiful inside and outside!

Just now, Xu Que was puzzled by some distracting thoughts . He was worrying about trifles like whether someone would cure this disease ahead of him . Ordinary people would only console him after knowing that, and say "come on, you can make it" at last! However, Jiang Hongyan was different . She only said, "Just go, and I'll be right here waiting for you!", which could be interpreted as she didn't care whether Xu Que would succeed or fail . The only thing she wanted was that Xu Que would come back to her after finishing his business! All of this could be summarized with one straightforward sentence – I don't care whether you will succeed or fail . For me, you are the most important person!

…

Xu Que walked through the crowds to the entrance guarded by several warrior monks . Then, he handed over his Divine Pill Plate . The warrior monks ushered him in and led him to an alchemy furnace .


587! This was the number on Xu Que's plate, which was also the number of his alchemy furnace .

Apparently, when Xu Que entered this competition, over 580 people had signed up ahead of him . So, his number lagged behind, and he had to sit in an inconspicuous position . Almost all the rest of the alchemists were sitting in front of their furnaces respectively . The most conspicuous alchemy furnaces, which were placed at the forefront, were still vacant .

Normally, Xu Que would have asked to change his position at this time! The Act-Tough Saint should always stand in the spotlight . How could he stay in the corner? However, now he didn't care about this at all . Because someone was looking at him gently in the crowds, which was enough for him!

Dong!

At this time, a monk rang the bell and the crispy bell tone rang out!



"Welcome the arrival of Nine Star Master Alchemist Senior Yun Yang Zi!" An old man stepped in along with the monk's shout . Then he walked to one of the alchemy furnaces at the forefront . All the alchemists in this area fixed their eyes on the newcomer with reverence immediately . The onlookers were in a turmoil .

"My God! Lord Zeng is really resourceful . He even invited Yun Yang Zi here!"

"Senior Yun Yang Zi is one of the rare Nine Star Master Alchemists in the Xuanzhen Continent . Only a few people could be prestigious enough to invite him!"

"It's nothing . It is said that Lord Zeng even invited the Demonic Pill Old Man here!"

"Holy crap! In this way, this Divine Pill Convention will become the competition of those experts!"

"Of course! Except for those experts who are skillful enough to refine pills which could cure the little Princess, all the rest of the alchemists are simply here to fill the posts!"

"Hah-hah, right! Flowers are more beautiful when they stand out against the green leaves . In this way, people could know how powerful those experts are!"

When the onlookers were talking about today's convention, Xu Que also looked up at that old man . He was just an ordinary white-haired old man, who were quite common in the World of cultivators! However, his title as the Nine Star Master Alchemist was quite rare!

It seemed the word "Master" was the only difference between a Master alchemist and an alchemist . However, the strength gap was so big that many people even couldn't fill it in their whole lives . In the Five Elements Mountain, a Nine Star Alchemist was almost like a god!

In the Four Continents, a Nine Star Alchemist was also very extraordinary . However, a cultivator who had reached the One Star Master Alchemist from the Nine Star Alchemist would be fawned on by countless families and sects . Now, Nine Star Master Alchemists appeared in the Xuanzhen Continent, who would be worshipped and flattered by numerous big shots in the Four Continents .



Dong!

At this time, another bell tone rang out!

"Welcome the arrival of Nine Star Master Alchemist Senior Zhuo Feng!"

The next moment, another old man stepped in . The onlookers were in an uproar again . Xu Que's lips twitched . The Xuanzhen Continent was more powerful than the Four Continents, as expected . Two Nine Star Master Alchemists could show up together!

Dong!

Soon, the bell was rung again .

"Welcome the arrival of Lord Zeng!"

Dong!

"Welcome the arrival of the One Star Grandmaster Alchemist Senior Demonic Pill!"

The two shouts startled all the alchemists in this area . Even the experts like Yun Yang Zi and Zhuo Feng fixed their eyes on the newcomers in reverence! At the same time, the onlookers were totally in an uproar!



"Holy crap! The Demonic Pill Old Man was really invited by Lord Zeng!"

"He is the only Grandmaster Alchemist in the Xuanzhen Continent!"

"Impressive! Now the little Princess's disease will definitely be cured!"

"It seems Lord Zeng extracted a tremendous cost this time . The Demonic Pill Old Man is famous for his bad temper . He won't show due respect to anyone . Nobody could invite him easily!"

…

When the onlookers were talking, Xu Que also looked up at those newcomers . He saw a pot-bellied middle-aged man who walked to the stage holding an emaciated little girl with him . At the same time, a dark-skinned old man was walking behind them thoughtfully . This old man ignored the onlookers' uproar . He was led to the alchemy furnace which was placed at the most front place in the area .

Apparently, the pot-bellied middle-aged man who looked like the Maitreya Buddha was Lord Zeng . The dark-skinned guy behind him was the only Grandmaster Alchemist, the Demonic Pill Old Man!

However, the little girl who was beside the middle-aged man, who must be the little Princess suffering from anorexia, attracted Xu Que's attention . Although she was quite emaciated, her facial features were very exquisite . This little girl was standing on the stage sweetly . No wonder so many people loved her dearly after she got sick!

This is a little bit troublesome!

Seeing that, Xu Que couldn't help but touch his jaw . He murmured to himself, "She is so emaciated . I guess she hasn't eaten anything for a long time . I'm afraid the digestive pills won't work in this case!"

However, after a short while, his eyes brightened slightly .

It seems I have to use it this time!
