Chapter 1104: Change The Bet

Looking at the angry crowd, Deng Hu suddenly thought, was he wrong after all?

What Shen Yunya had done had been broadcasted on the large projector wall of Jialan Hall and was known to everyone in this world. She was a person who had caused a great public outcry. Would he still want to avenge her like this?

Si Mobai stood on one side, looking at Deng Hu who was in a daze and gently curled his lips. “Alchemist Deng, it is already noon, are you still competing?”

It seemed that his determination to seek revenge for Shen Yunya was being shaken by the anger of the people. This was for the best.

“Yes, of course, I will compete!” Deng Hu glared at Si Mobai as he listened to the angry voices. He continued, “No matter who Ya’er was to you, she was an obedient disciple in my eyes. I cannot persecute one of my own even if she was guilty and deserved death. I cannot be unmoved.”

“The original bet with Feng Tianlan was that if she wins, I will no longer pursue the matter this time, and will be her Medical Child Servant; if she loses, I will take her life.”

“This is the betting agreement she agreed to. I will change it now. If she loses, I will still kill her but I will no longer refine pills in this lifetime. The Demon King can feel free to seek revenge on me and it will never involve the Shang Inst.i.tution.”

Deng Hu’s words successfully calmed the people down. They looked up at him and felt that he was indeed reasonable and hot-blooded. Too many of his close ones had done terrible things. Others could blame them freely, but he would not because they were his own people.

Hence, just as he had said, no matter who Shen Yunya was in the eyes of others, to him, she was his disciple. Even if she had done all those horrible things, he was the only person who could punish her. If someone else did so, then they had to answer to him.

Moreover, in the end, he said that he would no longer refine pills in this lifetime, which was undoubtedly a death sentence for an alchemist. He was also willing to leave the school.

He spoke with reason and compa.s.sion.

Feng Tianlan looked at Deng Hu, whose complexion had turned red because of the force used in his words. She said coldly, “Okay, let us bet on this.”

It seemed that Deng Hu was indeed a person who defended his shortcomings, just as Mo Bai had said. Even in the face of adverse public opinion, he did not change his mind. Such a protective nature was both good and bad. However, as long as he was a person who kept his promises, he would prove to be useful in the future.

“In order to show fairness, Feng Tianlan, as long as you refine any eighth-grade pill medicine of your choice, you will be considered the winner,” Deng Hu glanced at Feng Tianlan and said in a deep voice. As for what pill Weng Yue would be making, it went without saying. He was a Grand Alchemist after all and could refine fifth-grade pill medicine.

Deng Hu threw a few pieces of rice paper at Feng Tianlan, “These are Pill Recipes, you can choose one for yourself. You refine an eighth-grade one, and I will refine a fifth-grade pill.”

Feng glanced at the recipes. They were all beginner-level pill medicine for alchemists in the Xuantian Continent. She had taught Shen Yunya the secrets of making these when she was ten years old in her previous life. To her, they were nothing more than child’s play. She could not be bothered to refine these.

“I will refine the Eight Treasure Pill.” Feng Tianlan lifted her hands and returned the Pill Recipes to Weng Yue.

“…”

Weng Yue and Deng Hu stared at her in doubt. “Eight Treasure Pill?”

What kind of pill was that?

“You don’t know the Eight Treasure Pill?” It was Feng Tianlan’s turn to look at them with disbelief. According to the Pill Scroll Azurite, the Eight Treasure Pill was only an ordinary pill. It could be used by ordinary people to strengthen the body. If a Spiritual Pract.i.tioner took it, it could even change a single element cultivation body type.
