The cultivators at the city gates were extremely serious, virtually inspecting each person one by one. They inquired about everything from family background to the purpose of entering Central City and how many days they intended to stay.

Only after being certain would they let them in.

During this process, quite a few individuals with ill intentions were hesitant and unable to respond quickly, and were thus taken away by the guards as suspects and handed over to their sects.

This made many cultivators in the team think twice about proceeding.

Li Xiaobai was calculating in his heart. At this rate, it would probably be two hours before it was his turn. That was just to enter Central City. If the Array Formation Sect’s inspection was as strict, it might be dark by the time he could participate in the competition.

Feeling somewhat anxious, he was here to cause trouble, to disgust the other party and catch them unprepared—the shorter the time, the better.

If this drag on, by the time he went to stir things up, it would be too late.

He had to think of a way to quickly blend in.

What he didn’t know was that while the cultivators were indeed complaining in their hearts, the ones who were truly suffering were the guards themselves.

It was supposed to be an easy job where they could work comfortably and occasionally receive some extra perks.

But because of that cultivator named Li Xiaobai stirring up trouble at the Three Sects’ competition, they now had to be on high alert and conduct thorough inspections at all times, disrupting their peaceful break.

Asking a long list of questions again and again, and in the end having to note everything down, it was a very tiring task.

The guards deeply resented that cultivator named Li Xiaobai.

It was at this moment that suddenly, new words rose in the sky above Central City.

Alchemy Contest.

First Place: “Begging for Death” Ye Wushuang, with an eighth-rank elixir.

Second Place: “Begging for Death” Li Xiaobai, with an unmeasurable grade.

Third Place: Liu Fei from the Treasure Pavilion…

…

Li Xiaobai’s eyes suddenly narrowed. The first place had changed hands. Ye Wushuang, wasn’t she his senior sister?

When did she arrive? How had he not noticed?

It was expected that someone would try to steal his first place while he was causing trouble in the Elixir Sect, but he hadn’t expected that the new first place would be his own senior sister.

And the prefix of her name was also “Begging for Death”. It seemed she knew about his dealings and had specifically come to help him annoy the Elixir Sect.

He couldn’t help but admit, the senior sister was indeed loyal, joining the Three Sects’ competition and incidentally seeking revenge on his behalf; he just didn’t know if his other brothers and sisters had also come.

At the same time.

Inside the Elixir Sect’s Alchemy Hall, hundreds of alchemy masters were purple-faced, slumped on the ground in weakness, some cultivators continuously bleeding from the corners of their mouths, obviously having suffered significant injuries, as they groaned in pain.

An elder’s face looked as terrible as one who had swallowed a dead fly, staring at the several big characters floating in the sky.

“Granny, it was you who said you could crush the first place Li Xiaobai, which is why I let you cut in line. But you never said your prefix was exactly the same as Li Xiaobai’s!”

The elder’s eyes were blazing with fire as he tried to contain his anger and spoke to the white-robed woman in front of him.

“You never asked, and besides, what can a mere prefix explain? I said I could crush Li Xiaobai, and now I have done it. You should be happy about that, cheer up, your enemy has been suppressed.”

The white-robed woman said with a faint smile.

“But you never told me that you were crafting an eighth-grade Poison Pill, ah. Now all the other alchemists in the hall have been paralyzed, half dead. This mess is very difficult for me to handle!”

Another elder said with a woebegone face.

This female cultivator was indeed formidable, it’s just that her way of doing things was too unorthodox. Who could have expected that she would craft a Poison Pill, and of such a high grade at that? The process had caused all the cultivators in the Alchemy Hall to be poisoned, their veins blocked and their Spiritual Power recoiling, inflicting serious injuries on them.

The most critical part is, what the hell are you crafting a Poison Pill for? The damn thing’s grade is high, but it’s just a chicken rib, useless and can’t be used!

Moreover, the adverse effects caused by this single Poison Pill are far worse than what Li Xiaobai did.

Li Xiaobai just made a group of alchemists blow up their elixirs collectively, but this female cultivator went straight for poisoning all the present cultivators, their blood congealing and Spiritual Power backlashing, leaving nearly all of them severely injured. This account had to be tallied up to the Elixir Sect’s name, and resolving this would undoubtedly cost a fortune.

If they hadn’t particularly seen her as someone who came to suppress Li Xiaobai and let off steam for the Elixir Sect, they would have wanted to subdue her themselves. However, with the Elixir Sect already in a heap of troubles, they dared not make a move without knowing her background.

Having already provoked Treasure Pavilion and Elder Tianwu as two potential threats, if they were to provoke another big shot, the Elixir Sect really would bite off more than they could chew.

“Elder Wang, we must not let this woman go!”

“This is simply a Demonic Woman, even more vicious than that notorious Demonic Woman from the Western Desert. She actually wanted to poison us to death. I can’t swallow this anger!”

“That’s right, when I return, I must report to my clan and put a bounty on her capture, to have her slashed a thousand times over!”

“Heh heh, you really don’t know how to appreciate and cherish beauty. Once I’ve recovered, I will cripple her cultivation level and take her as my thirteenth concubine!”

The cultivators were in an uproar, having been poisoned into serious injury without any warning, leaving them incredibly frustrated. They had all come here hoping to stand out and demonstrate their skills, but now they had been incapacitated. How were they supposed to compete now?

They began to empathize with those cultivators who had collectively blown up their elixirs.

The elders wore distressed expressions. After the incident with Li Xiaobai, they were not too keen on offending either side at this point.

“Just the barking of a bunch of losers. The Elixir Sect competition has never prohibited the crafting of Poison Pills. It was your own selective decision to abandon this technique, and you didn’t even take proper precautions. Who can you blame?”

“Having been injured because your own skills are lacking and yet constantly causing trouble for others, if I were you, I would have taken my own life already.”

The white-robed woman scoffed and looked down on everyone present with disdain. With her hands behind her back, she walked slowly out of the Alchemy Hall, leaving behind a group of impotent and furiously raging cultivators blown about in the wind.

The elders didn’t stop her. The Elixir Sect indeed had not banned the crafting of Poison Pills, and there had been several instances of cultivators crafting them in the past. It was also mentioned in the precautionary notes before the annual Three Sects competition to take proper precautions against Poison Pills.

However, in recent years, cultivators have neglected both the crafting and precautions against Poison Pills. After all, besides harming others, these pills had no other use.

With no market for them, naturally fewer cultivators were willing to engage with them. Over time, cultivators selectively forgot about the crafting of Poison Pills, and those who did craft them were labeled as demonic and heretical.

The incident sparked by the Poison Pill today, if traced to its roots, lay within the cultivators themselves.

“Our Elixir Sect is sincere. We will heal everyone and remove the toxins from your bodies. Once you have fully recovered, we will add an extra alchemy competition for you to showcase your abilities. How does that sound?”

The elders said.

“Good!”
