Supreme Dragon Lord

Chapter 435 Elixir Pills Contest!

Upon hearing this, Wang Pingchuan’s expression immediately turned ugly.

He hadn’t expected that Long Chen would refuse to give him any face at all.

Wang Pingchuan said indifferently, "Your Elixir Pills are inherently problematic. The Medicine Pavilion is taking action for the safety of the sect’s disciples."

"If anything, Dragon Gate should be thanking us. Otherwise, if something really did go wrong because of your Elixir Pills, could your tiny Dragon Gate afford to take responsibility?!"

Hearing this, Long Chen couldn’t help but sneer. "How laughable. As the head of the Medicine Pavilion, I never expected you to say something like that."

At that, Long Chen turned his head to look at Tang Le and Long Xin. "Tell me," he said, "isn’t this living proof that a dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory?"

Long Xin and Tang Le both smiled.

Long Xin stepped forward and said, "Your Medicine Pavilion is really something else. You keep claiming the Elixir Pills from Dragon Gate might have problems. Are you saying the ones made by the Medicine Pavilion are guaranteed to be safe?"

"Exactly!" Wang Pingchuan nodded shamelessly. "The Elixir Pills we produce at the Medicine Pavilion are absolutely safe, without any issues."

"If you don’t believe me, you can ask anyone here and see what they say."

The others instantly understood Wang Pingchuan’s meaning. Who would dare to say anything bad in front of him? They all smiled sheepishly and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Long Chen merely smiled indifferently at this scene, unwilling to waste any more words on them. He said directly, "You have destroyed so many of our Elixir Pills. You must compensate us with three times the amount of medicinal herbs."

"You scoundrel! Who do you think you are, making such an exorbitant demand? I think you..."

A member of the Medicine Pavilion, infuriated by Long Chen’s words, stood up and began to berate him. However, before he could finish, Long Chen flicked his finger, and another jet of Qi Force shot out from his fingertip.

The Medicine Pavilion member’s heart trembled at the sight, and he hastily raised his hands to defend himself.

BANG!

Like a kite with a snapped string, the man smashed into a hard wall dozens of meters away. The solid wall instantly spiderwebbed with dense cracks, and he was left deeply embedded within it, a wretched and miserable sight.

"Damn it!"

"How infuriating!"

"This is outrageous! Do you really think there’s no one in the Medicine Pavilion who can deal with you?!"

Seeing their companion end up in such a sorry state, the other members of the Medicine Pavilion grew furious. A frigid, indifferent aura emanated from them, and several venomous gazes fixed on Long Chen and his companions.

"Get him!"

"Take him down!"

At that moment, one of the Medicine Pavilion members shouted an order. The group flashed forward, their speed incredibly fast, becoming a blur of afterimages. In the blink of an eye, they were right in front of Long Chen, unleashing a series of fierce attacks!

Facing the onslaught, Long Chen stood his ground, his expression not showing the slightest change. He took a single step forward, and a powerful Energy Shield materialized before him.

BOOM!

A mighty ripple of energy suddenly erupted, sweeping across the area. Many of the onlookers retreated hastily, not daring to get any closer.

The Medicine Pavilion members who had attacked Long Chen were sent flying backward, spitting blood. After crashing to the ground, they lay there, unable to move, letting out groans of agony. Intense pain washed over them, turning their faces as white as sheets. They struggled to get up, only to find they couldn’t muster an ounce of strength. They collapsed helplessly back to the ground, barely breathing.

Seeing this, Wang Pingchuan’s expression became extremely grim.

The next moment, he felt Long Chen’s cold gaze lock onto him, making his heart shudder violently. Still, he forced himself to remain calm and show no sign of panic.

He glared at Long Chen darkly. "Are you determined to fight the Medicine Pavilion to the death?"

Long Chen replied indifferently, "It’s not that we want a fight to the death with the Medicine Pavilion. It’s that you never had any intention of letting Dragon Gate off the hook."

Wang Pingchuan said coldly, "You’ve harmed men from my Medicine Pavilion. I can overlook that. Let’s just call today’s matter even. How about it?"

"Not good enough," Long Chen replied lightly. "Today, you have two choices: either compensate us or get a thorough beating from us!"

The crowd was shocked once again. None of them had expected Long Chen to refuse to let the Medicine Pavilion off the hook, even after Wang Pingchuan had made a concession. This was simply unbelievable!

Wang Pingchuan’s brows furrowed deeply, his dissatisfaction reaching its peak. I’ve already lowered myself to make a concession, yet Long Chen is so ungrateful?!

"Arrogant fool," he snorted coldly, staring straight at Long Chen. "Then there is no more room for negotiation."

"In that case, let’s settle this with our respective areas of expertise."

Long Chen asked indifferently, "An Elixir Pill competition?"

"Exactly." Wang Pingchuan nodded. "Isn’t Dragon Gate proud of the superior quality of the Elixir Pills you produce? Then let’s have a competition!

"If I lose, Dragon Gate’s Elixir Pills can circulate freely in the market, and the Medicine Pavilion will never interfere again.

"But if you lose, Dragon Gate will be forever barred from selling Elixir Pills. Furthermore, you will have to obey the Medicine Pavilion’s orders from now on. How about it?"

"Unfair," Long Chen replied calmly. "If you lose, not only will you be unable to stop Dragon Gate from selling Elixir Pills, but your Medicine Pavilion will also have to follow our orders from now on!"

Upon hearing Long Chen’s terms, Wang Pingchuan let out a sneer and agreed without the slightest hesitation.

In his eyes, there was no way Long Chen’s Alchemy Technique could match his own. The low purity of the Elixir Pills sold by the Medicine Pavilion was the fault of its other members and had nothing to do with him. He had absolute confidence in his own skills! Within the Jinglei Sect, it was impossible to find someone whose alchemy surpassed his. Therefore, this wager was his to win. Furthermore, if he could get people like Long Chen to follow his orders, the Medicine Pavilion’s prestige within the Jinglei Sect would rise to a whole new level.

Thinking of this, he began to feel a thrill of excitement, eagerly anticipating Long Chen’s defeat.

Damn! The stakes were that high! Hearing the wagers the two men had proposed, everyone present was utterly astonished and completely caught off guard. However, they were also incredibly excited for the Elixir Pill competition. Now, this was going to be a good show
