Guituo's face was livid at this moment, his eyes were on fire, he clenched his fists and walked directly in front of Sheng Kang and Yao Wenhao, with a chill all over his body, and said word by word: "Yao Lao, I don't accept it! I want...
.”
"What are you going to do!"
Seeing this scene, Master Shengkang's expression sank, and he banged the cane on the ground violently, and a terrifying and suffocating aura burst out from his whole body, and he shouted: "Should you attack me, or should you attack Yao Wenhao?
"
"Guituo doesn't dare!"
Feeling the terrifying aura crushing towards him, Guituo was instantly awakened, trembling all over, and quickly bowed respectfully.
"snort!"
Sheng Kang snorted coldly. Seeing that Guituo had lost his chill, he calmed down his power slightly and said: "Guituo, as an alchemist, you have to keep a calm mind when facing a competition. If you lose, you lose. It's not a big deal. A win or loss counts.
It’s nothing, just learn a lesson!”
"But if you don't even have the courage to admit defeat, then you are not worthy of becoming a qualified alchemist, let alone the alchemist of my Babao Pavilion!"
"Guituo understands!"
Guituo was startled, and he quickly bowed and bowed again, then hurriedly returned to his original position, not daring to say anything.
But his lowered face was quite ferocious and extremely cold; obviously, he was just afraid of Sheng Kang's fierce power, rather than admitting defeat in the true sense.
"Xiao Yao, come with me. I have something to ask you!"
After lazily talking to Guituo, Shengkang looked slightly calm, gave an order, left everyone alone, and walked downstairs alone.
"yes!"
Yao Wenhao did not dare to say anything and hurriedly followed.
The two of them went directly to the seventh floor of Babao Pavilion, one after the other.
"Little medicine..."
After Sheng Kang found a seat and sat down, he polished the tip of his crutch and said lightly: "There are only you and me here now, let's talk!"
"say what?"
"Still pretending?"
Sheng Kang sat upright, stared at Yao Wenhao with a pair of vicissitudes of eyes, smiled suddenly, and said: "Tell me where is the master behind you now?"
"master?"
Hearing this, Yao Wenhao was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale, and he squeezed out a smile with some embarrassment and said: "Sage, what kind of master are you?"
"You brat, do you really think I'm an old fool?"
Seeing this, Sheng Kang immediately laughed and cursed, raised his cane and lightly slapped Yao Wenhao, and said with a smile: "I have read the three questions raised by Guituo, even if I and the other two grandmasters at the headquarters,
You may not be able to give such a perfect answer overnight. I picked you up with one hand, how many pounds and taels do I know? Even if you can answer it, it can't be so perfect!"
"What's more, even though I'm old, I'm not dim-sighted. I studied the two elixirs yesterday carefully and found that it would not have taken more than three days to make them. They are not ancient elixirs that have existed for a long time."
Having said this, Sheng Kang paused and continued: "Coupled with Xiaoxuan Wazi's prevarication and the changes in your alchemy skills in the past two days, it is not difficult to deduce everything, right?"
"this..."
Hearing these words, Yao Wenhao's expression suddenly changed slightly, and there was a flash of panic in his eyes.
He never expected that Ye Wushuang was not exposed at all during the entire assessment process, but he was still exposed.
Now Master Shengkang personally asks, how should he answer?
Master Shengkang was his mentor, and the benefactor who single-handedly promoted him. Now Master Shengkang is personally asking, if he continues to conceal it, it may not be easy to deal with!
But if you tell the truth...
Thinking of Ye Wushuang's temper, Yao Wenhao couldn't help but feel chilled. If Ye Wushuang's identity was revealed rashly, the consequences would be very serious if Ye Wushuang was made unhappy!
"Medicine writer!"
Seeing Yao Wenhao's tangled and hesitant expression, Sheng Kang's face darkened at this moment, and he shouted: "Although you and I are not masters and disciples, you have also been under my disciples back then, so you should know my character; since I have spoken, I must
There needs to be an answer!”
"Indeed, you deserve to win this test. But if you are still unwilling to tell the truth at this moment, I can still let Guituo stay!"
Although the assessment results have been released, the final decision-making power still rests with him as the invigilator.
And with his status as an alchemy master, as long as he is willing, even if he calls a deer a horse, the Babao Pavilion headquarters will believe it!
Yao Wenhao naturally knew this, and his face suddenly became ugly.
Seeing this scene, Sheng Kang's face showed a bit of sadness and sigh, and his tone softened a bit, saying: "Xiao Yao, you should know that I have encountered a bottleneck in the alchemy path, and I have not taken a step forward for many years.
Now. I have no other intention in asking that master. I just want to ask him for advice and see if I can break through the bottleneck."
"After all, whether it is from the alchemy skills of refining the Spirit-Reinforcing Pill and the Pulse Opening Pill, or from helping you improve the alchemy skills and answering the three theoretical questions, this master's alchemy skills are quite superb. This
For me, this is an opportunity to break through the bottleneck!"
Use both soft and hard tactics!
It is hard to imagine that an intermediate alchemist could do this to a top spiritual alchemist.
But Sheng Kang had no choice, he had to do this.
He has specialized in alchemy since he was a child, and it has been his lifelong pursuit to go further on the alchemy path. But now, he has encountered a bottleneck and has been stagnant in the alchemy path for a long time!
If he can't break through the bottleneck again, he will probably stop being an intermediate treasure alchemist in this life!
Yesterday, he spent a whole night researching, and he has determined that the two pills have not existed for a long time, but were just refined. This shows that there is a master of ancient pills in the Eight Treasures Pavilion, and
A master of alchemy who can refine a perfect elixir!
This gave him a glimpse of hope to break through the bottleneck.
In addition, Yao Wenhao's superb answer in the theoretical assessment just now confirmed his speculation and strengthened his glimmer of hope.
The alchemy skills of the person behind the medicine writer are definitely far superior to him; if he can get help from this person, even if he just asks for advice, it is very likely to bring him inspiration and let him break through the bottleneck.
Of course, Master Shengkang also knows that this hope is not great, even a little slim; but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he must firmly grasp it!
"Sage, in my heart, you have always been my mentor and my benefactor!"
After hearing this and seeing this scene, Yao Wenhao's determination finally relaxed a little. He couldn't bear to refuse anymore and bowed his hands: "But, I can't make a decision immediately on this matter, so I ask you to allow me to ask."
Let’s ask each other for their opinions...”
"Okay, okay!"
Seeing Yao Wenhao relent, Sheng Kang was immediately overjoyed. Before Yao Wenhao had finished speaking, he waved his hands repeatedly: "Go and ask, go and ask!"
As an alchemist himself, he knew very well that some alchemy masters had eccentric temperaments and strange tempers, and interrupting them hastily would be counterproductive. Therefore, he was not angry but happy at Yao Wenhao's suggestion.
"good!"
Yao Wenhao bowed and immediately turned around to leave. However, his heart was filled with anxiety and he had no confidence at all.
Through getting along with each other in the past few days, he knew that Ye Wushuang was arrogant and did not like to be disturbed. If he exposed his identity and disturbed her rashly, if he angered Ye Wushuang, everything he had done before would be in vain!
But Master Shengkang was kind to him, and now he was using both soft and hard tactics. If he still persisted, he would not only feel sad about this situation in his heart, but he might also completely offend Master Shengkang, and it would be difficult for him to gain a foothold in Babao Pavilion in the future.
What a dilemma!
With a sigh, Yao Wenhao walked to the first floor in an anxious mood, and went straight to the alchemy room where Ye Wushuang was.
