Chapter 303: 303: Master of Medicine God Pavilion 1

One of Ethan’s hands had been burned black and looked absolutely terrible.

“This is the Breakthrough Pill?” The crowd glanced at the pill in Ethan’s hand, slightly puzzled.

Ethan nodded and handed the pill to the little stall owner.

The stall owner took the Breakthrough Pill with a curious expression on his face.

He had never seen a Breakthrough Pill before and had no idea whether the pill was genuine or fake.

“Apothecary, is this Breakthrough Pill real?” The stall owner looked at the alchemist from the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.

The alchemist’s face turned extremely ugly, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

He knew very well that this pill was indeed the Breakthrough Pill!

But if he acknowledged it, then he wouldn’t get the Best Thin Armor!

The alchemist glanced at the surrounding crowd and saw that everyone was waiting for his answer.

So, he cleared his throat and said, “This is not a Breakthrough Pill at all. Don’t be fooled by him.”

The crowd was shocked by his words!

Ethan’s brow furrowed, and he gave the alchemist a cold stare.

“If this is not a Breakthrough Pill, then what is it?” Ethan asked coldly.

The alchemist snorted, “If I’m not mistaken, this should be a damaged pill. In other words, your alchemy failed.”

“Nonsense!” Ethan rebuked coldly.

“You know whether this is a Breakthrough Pill or not! As an alchemist from the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, you’re speaking nonsense for your personal gain and exploiting peoples’ trust in you!”

“So, this is the Divine Alchemist Pavilion? It seems it’s nothing remarkable!” As soon as these words fell, the crowd gasped!

Was Ethan publicly belittling the Divine Alchemist Pavilion? Had he gone mad?

The alchemist was even angrier, shouting, “Do you even know what you’re talking about?! The Divine Alchemist Pavilion isn’t something a junior like you can evaluate!”

Ethan sneered, “I initially thought the Divine Alchemist Pavilion was some kind of holy place, but after meeting you, I am extremely disappointed.”

“Ha, as if the Divine Alchemist Pavilion needs your evaluation!” The alchemist sneered.

Then, he looked at the stall owner and said, “Boss, the decision is in your hands. It’s up to you.”

The stall owner was somewhat conflicted. He trusted the Divine Alchemist Pavilion more, but he had personally witnessed Ethan’s alchemy process.

That was using his own palm to refine a pill! And he controlled the Blue Spirit Fire!

“There… there’s no way to prove it.” The stall owner muttered.

He was not at the edge of a breakthrough, so even if he took the Breakthrough Pill, it wouldn’t have any effect.

“Boss, I am just about to reach the Grandmaster Peak. Why don’t you give me this Breakthrough Pill, and I’ll give it a try?” Someone nearby suggested. The stall owner glared at him and scolded, “In your dreams!”

“It seems there’s no way to prove it then.” The alchemist shrugged, smiling faintly.

The stall owner was visibly troubled, not knowing what decision to make.

“What, don’t you trust the Divine Alchemist Pavilion?” The alchemist struck while the iron was hot.

With gritted teeth, the stall owner handed the Breakthrough Pill back to Ethan and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I only have this one Best Thin Armor, and I don’t want to take risks, so… I hope you can forgive me.”

Ethan shook his head, took back the Breakthrough Pill, and said, “It’s alright, I understand.”

After that, Ethan put away the Breakthrough Pill and turned to leave.

“Young man, may I take a look at this pill?”

Just then, a voice sounded beside Ethan.

He turned around and saw a smiling middle-aged man in his forties looking at him.

Upon seeing this man, the alchemist from the Divine Alchemist Pavilion’s face changed drastically!

“El… Elder, what brings you here…?” The alchemist asked hastily.

An elder? This middle-aged man was actually an elder from the Divine Alchemist Pavilion?

“Greetings to the elder of the Divine Alchemist Pavilion!” Everyone started greeting the elder.

Without paying them any heed, the elder looked at Ethan and asked again,

“Young man, may I take a look at this pill?”

After this experience, Ethan had a very poor impression of the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.

So, without any expression, he said, “I think I’ll pass. There’s no need, as all crows under the heavens are the same shade of black.”

Leaving these words, Ethan prepared to leave.

The elder quickly stopped Ethan and said, “Young man, there might be some misunderstandings here, and he alone cannot represent the whole Divine Alchemist Pavilion.”

“Moreover, our Divine Alchemist Pavilion has never been short on pills. There won’t be any loss if you just let me have a look.”

Ethan frowned for a moment, seemingly persuaded by the elder’s words.

Thus, Ethan handed the pill to the elder.

After receiving the pill, the elder carefully examined it.

He had a strange expression, and occasionally glanced at Ethan.

“From the elder’s expression, it seems that the Breakthrough Pill was indeed a failure.” Someone nearby muttered.

Ethan couldn’t help but sneer in his heart.

The Divine Alchemist Pavilion truly wasn’t as sacred as he had imagined.

“Strange, very strange.” The elder finally spoke.

“Elder, how is it? This pill is fake, right?” Someone eagerly asked.

The elder remained silent, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

Ethan was growing impatient and said coldly, “So you also think it’s fake, right? Give me back my pill, and if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.”

The elder quickly waved his hands, “No, no, you misunderstand. I was just marveling at how you’re not from the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, yet your alchemy technique is so incredibly exquisite.”

At these words, everyone became stunned!

“Elder, do you mean… this really is a Breakthrough Pill?” The stall owner asked anxiously.

The elder nodded slightly, “Not only is it a Breakthrough Pill, but it’s also an extremely successful Breakthrough Pill!”

“With such skill, even within the entire Divine Alchemist Pavilion, there wouldn’t be many who could surpass you!”
