A slap sent Bu Xun flying, the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion didn't even glance at him, only raising his head to look at Shangguan Lu, and coldly said, “Shangguan Lu, the Chen Di Pavilion is a low-level force recommended by me. Your Tianji Pavilion has also approved it, yet now you won't let them in. What? Do you think of me as nothing? Does my Alchemy Pavilion not even have the qualification to recommend a low-level force?”
Shangguan Lu saw Bu Xun being reprimanded and felt no anger, but rather a mocking smile appeared on his face.
However, seeing that the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion had come to complain, he didn't dare be negligent and quickly replied, “Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, I wouldn’t dare to do that, there are indeed other hidden circumstances.”
“Hidden circumstances? What hidden circumstances can there be? You three go in first; I want to see who dares to stop the force recommended by my Alchemy Pavilion!” The Master of the Alchemy Pavilion completely disregarded Shangguan Lu's words and directly spoke to the three black slaves.
Seeing the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion say this, the three black slaves immediately walked in, glancing coldly at Bu Xun lying there and sneering.
Bu Xun's face instantly burned with shame and anger, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
“Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, you are going too far with this, aren’t you? Even if the Chen Di Pavilion is a force you recommended, they indeed offended the rules of the Tianji Pavilion by entering the plaza early. Tianji Pavilion stopping them is not wrong, right?”
At this moment, Ding Qianqiu spoke up, his face extremely gloomy, frowning.
He knew that if he didn’t speak now, the face of the Da Qian Dynasty would probably be lost.
To his surprise, the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion glanced at Ding Qianqiu, a hint of disdain appearing at the corner of his mouth, and coldly laughed, “Ding Laogui, Shangguan Pavilion Master hasn't said anything, what are you from the Da Qian Dynasty chattering about? Even if they entered the plaza early, what of it? The forces recommended by my Alchemy Pavilion shouldn’t even have the qualification to enter the plaza first?”
Ding Qianqiu was so furious he nearly spat blood.
Others also stared at the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion in shock, their mouths agape.
This was too domineering; it was the first time they had seen someone speak so boldly while clearly violating the rules.
Yet, there seemed to be no sense of wrongness about it at all.
With the status of the Alchemy Pavilion, it was indeed not a problem for the recommended forces to enter the plaza first.
“You're being unreasonable in this matter; everyone should judge for themselves!” Zuo Qianqiu said angrily, then looked towards the Da Li Dynasty's representative, “Brother Li, you come and judge!”
The ancestor of the Da Li Dynasty was a withered old man, his face waxy and motionless, like a corpse. Hearing Zuo Qianqiu's question, he finally raised his head and coldly said, “Indeed, there is a violation of the rules. Even if the force recommended by your Alchemy Pavilion was rated as low-level, they must adhere to the rules of the Tianji Pavilion. Can it be disregarded just because it was you who recommended them? Where is the fairness in that?”
Hearing this, everyone was not surprised at all; the Da Li Dynasty was the one that had clashed with the Alchemy Pavilion back in the day. The ancestor of the Da Li Dynasty, Li Shang, had also had conflicts with the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, but no one knew the specifics of that situation. Once he spoke, he certainly wouldn’t speak for the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion.
The Master of the Alchemy Pavilion chuckled coldly, “Li Laogui, how's it going? Haven't you learned your lesson from last time? Do you want to experience my methods again?”
Everyone was immediately surprised and looked at the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion with flickering gazes.
Could it be that there had really been a confrontation between the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion and the ancestor of the Da Li Dynasty back then? And just as everyone speculated, the Master of the Alchemy Pavilion had the upper hand?
