The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 415 Gathering of All Parties
As disciples of the Medicine King Sect, their arrival attracted much attention.

In particular, the Medicine King Sect consistently achieves excellent rankings, with the champion almost always coming from within the sect, so the disciples who came were very confident.

He felt immensely pleased to be surrounded by admiring gazes from the crowd.

After checking into their rooms, the group went upstairs.

"We're the undisputed winners of this competition. The three of us will then travel to the Central Region together and witness just how legendary the Pill Sect truly is!"

"Of course! Look at those people, they probably can't even refine a seventh-grade pill!"

The disciples of the Medicine King Sect whispered among themselves, glancing at the disciples of other sects in the hall with disdain in their eyes.

They were outstanding alchemists selected by the Medicine King Sect, and these disciples were no match for them.

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingfeng glanced down and coldly rebuked, "Keep a low profile."

"If you are careless and hand over the championship, you should know the consequences!"

Arrogance can be a good thing, as it can motivate disciples to learn, but if arrogance goes too far, it will be a disaster.

If the Medicine King Sect suffers a humiliating defeat in alchemy...

Wu Qingfeng dismissed the thought; their Medicine King Sect might not excel at anything else, but their alchemy was absolutely top-notch.

"Disciple knows!"

The three of them immediately shut up, not daring to utter another word.

Only the disdain in his eyes remained.

Just as the group was about to enter the room, a loud bang startled everyone in the inn.

"this--"

"Did someone explode the oven?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard the sound. After all, the people who came to this inn were all extremely outstanding alchemists from various sects. How could such a basic mistake as an exploding furnace happen?

Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to a certain room on the fifth floor, their eyes revealing a hint of mockery.

The Fourth Elder, Lu, and Wu Feng were also startled by the sudden noise, especially since they were closest to Song Wanning's room and were therefore more affected.

The group quickly left the room, only to find the door to the next room tightly closed and nothing unusual, which relieved them slightly.

Presumably, Song Wanning was attempting to refine a higher-level elixir, which is why the furnace exploded.

The group exchanged glances, finally understanding what had happened, and were relieved.

Just as he was about to go back inside, he heard someone mocking, "Fellow Daoist Mei, I never imagined that your Ancient Cold Sect would be so depleted of talent that you can't even find three alchemists who can't break their furnaces?"

The person speaking was checking in on the first floor. When the group looked down, they immediately recognized him as Gu Yan, an elder of the Qingyun Sect in the Eastern Region.

Accompanying him were Xiao Heyun, Xie Qinglan, and two other alchemists.

"Who is it? It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Gu from the Qingyun Sect?"

The Fourth Elder raised an eyebrow and looked at Gu Yan with a cold gaze.

"I heard that your Qingyun Sect is struggling to support its disciples, causing them to flock to the secret realms of my Southern Region. If I were you, I would be frantic with worry, how could I possibly be in the mood to participate in the Alchemy Competition?"

As she spoke, a strong sense of sarcasm washed over him, instantly changing Gu Yan's expression.

Xiao Heyun's heart sank, and he stared at the Fourth Elder with a frosty expression, his heart filled with murderous intent.

Upon hearing this, the sects from the Southern Region who were originally in the inn all stepped forward.

When did it become the Eastern Region's place to steal things from the Southern Region?
It's simply too much!

"Fellow Daoist Gu, Qingyun Sect is one of the five major sects in the Eastern Region. Could it really have fallen to such a state?"

"Hiss, it's really a pity. Who knows, the Qingyun Sect might be removed from the list of the five major sects one day. After all, if even the true disciples of the sect have no way to survive, wouldn't the ordinary disciples starve to death?"

"Sigh, Fellow Daoist Gu, considering our long-standing acquaintance, why don't you have your disciples switch allegiance to us? We can afford to support them!" "Yes, although we are just a small sect in the Southern Region, we can still afford to support a few true disciples..."

Several sect elders, working in concert, infuriated Gu Yan to the point that his face turned black and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

He was burning with anger, but he couldn't find the words to refute it, because the elders of the Canglan Sect had caught him red-handed in this matter and were now hunting him down everywhere.

However, once they entered Wuyang City, at least until the end of the Alchemy Competition, no one dared to make a move against Xiao Heyun.

Gu Yan glanced at Xiao Heyun with a gloomy expression. This time, the Alchemy Competition still depended on him to win the championship, so he had to protect Xiao Heyun.

"Our Qingyun Sect is doing just fine, we don't need anyone else to worry about us!"

He could only evade the issue and turn his attention to the Medicine King Sect.

"The Medicine King Sect must have come prepared this time as well. Fellow Daoist Wu, are you confident that you can take all three top spots?"

This time, the Medicine King Sect should just wait to be humiliated!

Xiao Heyun's talent for alchemy is unparalleled in the world, even surpassing that of the disciples of the Medicine King Sect.

"Hehe, thank you for your concern, Fellow Daoist Gu. With so many outstanding alchemists from various sects gathered together, our Medicine King Sect still has much to learn from you all."

Wu Qingfeng wasn't stupid; he wouldn't let the Medicine King Sect be in the eye of the storm. He started spouting all sorts of self-deprecating remarks, making Gu Yan's teeth ache.

Fortunately, this interruption temporarily put Xiao Heyun's matter aside.

Everyone was tired from their journey, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Meanwhile, Song Wanning, who had caused all this commotion, was still in her room reflecting on a pile of discarded pill residue.

She had just tried to combine several methods, but she didn't know what she had miscalculated, which caused the last batch of pills to explode into ashes.

She felt a pang of regret for wasting such high-quality medicinal herbs and carefully analyzed the problems that had arisen.

Just then, an untimely voice suddenly rang out.

[Damn it, all these cultivators from the Southern Region should die! They almost made me lose face in front of Junior Sister Xie!]

If they lower my favorability rating again, I'll kill them!

[System, I must win first place in this Alchemy Competition!]

[I wonder if that bitch Song Wanning has come yet. This time, I'm going to kill her!]

Then came a string of familiar profanities, and Song Wanning frowned.

Xiao Heyun did indeed arrive.

The Canglan Sect couldn't do anything to him, just as the Medicine King Sect couldn't do anything to him.

After all, the title of "Chosen One" isn't just a casual saying.

As long as they don't encounter him, these invaders can have whatever they want.

but……

Xie Qinglan came along too?

A malicious glint flashed in Song Wanning's eyes.

Let Xie Qinglan's affection for Xiao Heyun decrease even further!

The lower the better, it would be best to punish him once again!
Ignoring the noise around her, Song Wanning continued to study the methods of alchemy, putting everything else out of her mind.

In the following days, the entire Wuyang City was flooded with countless people.

The huge city was overcrowded.
