Chapter 1300 Introduce an Ancestor (1/2)

Commotion continued inside and outside the Great Alchemy Hall for a good while and wouldn’t subside.

Even the several Saints didn’t intervene because they knew well what the pill production rate represented.

Although they couldn't figure out whether it was Zhou Yuan or Yaoyao responsible for the impressive pill production rate of 26…they weren’t too bothered because the result was the most important.

As long as that rate was steady, they wouldn’t object if Yaoyao wanted to exchange Xu Beiyan for a dog, let alone Zhou Yuan.

On the buzzing square, Zhao Mushen’s face was devoid of expression. The unbelievable result felt familiar to them.

He was filled with shock and disbelief when Zhou Yuan suddenly appeared and defeated him in the nine regions tournament, and something similar happened again.

The only thing that made him feel a little better was that he was a bystander this time.

Zhao Mushen cast a pitiful glance at Xu Beiyan, who was considered the most popular person in the All-Heavens City. Even he underestimated Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan was simply the nemesis of all popular people in the world.

How glamorous was Zhao Mushen in Hunyuan Heaven? He was invincible at the Divine Dwelling stage but Zhou Yuan also tread on him in the end.

If it weren't for Zhao Mushen’s great tenacity that made him finally climb back up, Zhou Yuan would have trampled him to the point he couldn’t turn over.

After that, Zhao Mushen keenly felt that he wouldn’t have a good ending if he became an enemy to Zhou Yuan, and so, he decisively suppressed his hatred and moved away. It was best to retreat if he couldn’t win. But he didn't feel humiliated because the one who laughed last would be the real winner.

Su Youwei also relaxed her tense body and appeared to be in a very good mood. With a charming smile, she turned her head and said to Zhao Mushen, “You saved an Ancestral Dragon Pill.”

This was because Zhao Mushen didn't dare to bet with her.

Annoyed, Zhao Mushen could only coldly snort.

”Let's congratulate His Highness?” Su Youwei asked for their opinions.

Wu Yao pondered for a moment and finally angled her fair and sharp chin down.

Zhao Mushen refused without any hesitation. “I’m not going. You guys can go.”

Although he didn't want to be an enemy of Zhou Yuan, there was still undoubted grudge between them. Zhao Mushen didn't want to go up to congratulate Zhou Yuan since that would only make him more uncomfortable.

Su Youwei said indifferently, “It's up to you,” and turned to Wu Yao. “His Highness will assist in refining Ancestral Dragon Pills in the future and will have quite a lot of power. If he makes things easier for us when we exchange for Ancestral Dragon Pills, we can definitely benefit a lot.”

Wu Yao was a little persuaded when she heard this. After all, one would only learn the dangers of capturing Ancestral Dragon Remnant Spirits after experiencing the difficulties in the Outerspace Battlefield. More importantly, there weren't enough Ancestral Dragon Pills to go around the All-Heavens City and the majority of people would have to wait even if they had enough tokens. But it would save them a lot of trouble if Zhou Yuan helped them.

At the very least, she could raise her strength after obtaining an Ancestral Dragon Pill, which would give her more protection in any subsequent danger.

That increase in strength could perhaps even save her life.

Although Wu Yao was a prideful person, she wasn’t stubborn. So, she nodded and accompanied Su Youwei.

But before they took a few steps, they sensed footsteps behind them and turned their heads, only to see Zhao Mushen following them with his head hanging low, as though he was looking for something on the ground.

When he noticed the two women’s gazes, he lifted his head and said expressionless, ”I want to see what level that guy has reached now, so I can be vigilant of him in the future.”

Su Youwei and Wu Yao exchanged a glance with each other and curled their lips in a smile. They ignored Zhao Mushen and continued ahead.

Of course Zhao Mushen saw their teasing smiles, and because of his personality, he bowed his head and couldn’t stop his cheeks from flushing with embarrassment. He snorted coldly, flung his sleeve and followed after them.

Since it could raise his strength, shouldn’t he endure it?

Only those who could endure humiliation would have the last laugh.
