Chapter 1375: Competing for Number One

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Mo Qingcheng was initially very happy because she succeeded in her pill concoction. However, when she heard this, her smile was instantly retracted as her expression turned unsightly.

Qin Wentian was frowning as well. Although it was only natural for a beauty like Mo Qingcheng to have plenty of suitors, confessing to her in front of him was simply pure arrogance. In fact, Qiu Mo even wanted Mo Qingcheng to give him her pill. This was clearly disrespecting Mo Qingcheng. Not only that, the elder of Qiu Mo and Pill Lord of the main peak also joined in, causing Qin Wentian to be extremely unhappy.

"This pill is concocted for my husband." Mo Qingcheng icily replied. When Qiu Mo heard her reply and saw the paleness of her face, he still didn't want to give up. The Mo Qingcheng now who was exhausted, was even more enchanting than usual.

"Junior sister Qingcheng, why don't you give me a chance? I don't mind your past, and I will definitely be more outstanding compared to your husband." Qiu Mo spoke.

"You are simply shameless." Mo Qingcheng coldly spoke. She has already made things very clear but this Qiu Mo still said such a thing before Qin Wentian. No matter how good her temper was, she couldn't endure it any longer.

"Qiu Mo." The elder of the Qiu Clan frowned and lectured, "You even want someone who already has a husband? Don't you find it dirty?"

"RUMBLE!" Qin Wentian's body trembled in anger. He didn't think that Qiu Mo's elder would say such a humiliating thing in public. He stood up and coldly stared at the elder as he spoke, "Apologize."

Qiu Mo's elder turned to Qin Wentian. Upon feeling his aura, the elder coldly smiled, "Initial-stage immortal king? Not too bad but who the hell you think you are? You want me to apologize?"

He was from a great city in the territory controlled by the Paragon Sword Sect. As the ruler of a great city, he was treated as a VIP here in the emperor-ranked Unaging Immortal Mountains. How would he care about an initial-stage immortal king who apparently wasn't even important enough to be allocated a seat at the main table.

"She is my wife." Qin Wentian coldly spoke, announcing his sovereignty.

"So what?" That elder spoke mockingly. Earlier, when he saw Mo Qingcheng's beauty, he had wanted to match her with Qiu Mo. However, he didn't expect Qiu Mo to be humiliated by Mo Qingcheng, and was being scolded as shameless. How could he not be angry? Hence, he spoke out to insult Mo Qingcheng.

"Brother Qiu please cease your anger." The main peak's Pill Lord spoke. After that he turned to Qin Wentian, "Sir, please take your seat. This is the banquet of our Unaging Immortal Mountains, please obey the rules. If there are any matters you want to settle, please wait until the banquet has concluded."

Qin Wentian came here wanting to keep a low profile and didn't want to divulge his identity. However, when he saw Mo Qingcheng being insulted, he couldn't help it and stood out in anger. This matter caused his eyes to gleam with a cold light as he stared icily at the Qiu Clan's elder. In his eyes, this elder was already a dead man.

"Fine." Qin Wentian sat back down. Since this was the case, he will wait for the banquet to conclude before settling this debt.

"Qingcheng, I won't spare him." Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Mo Qingcheng.

Mo Qingcheng turned back and smiled at him. As long as Qin Wentian was here for her, everything that occurred earlier didn't matter.

Ye Rou who was not far away, clearly had a look of unhappiness in her eyes. She didn't expect Mo Qingcheng's husband to be an immortal king. Even though Mo Qingcheng's husband was an initial-stage immortal king, it was still far stronger compared to her fiance who was merely at the peak of immortal-foundation. When she thought of this, her jealousy for Mo Qingcheng surged up again.

Senior brother Qiu Mo could even disregard her past and confess his love for Mo Qingcheng in public, yet Mo Qingcheng actually insulted him as shameless. How could she react like that?

If Qiu Mo had confessed to her instead, she would instantly toss aside her fiance and go with him.

"The pill concoction process isn't completed yet, don't be distracted." The main peak's Pill Lord spoke coldly, feeling as though he lost some face. He didn't know the situation earlier and spoke to help his beloved disciple Qiu Mo but he didn't expect her to reject Qiu Mo so directly, even calling Qiu Mo shameless. Seems like Mo Qingcheng's master must have spoiled her, doting on her overly, causing Mo Qingcheng to not know the proper etiquette.

Qiu Mo's eyes were cold as he stared in the direction of Qin Wentian.

Today, he already took a step back, lowering his pride and confessed his love to Mo Qingcheng. Because of her beauty and talent, he could even not care about her past matters. However, he was slapped publicly by her rejection.

Everyone had their own thoughts. The pill concoction banquet continued, while the spectators watched on with interest. This Qiu Mo was an extremely talented heaven chosen but he was actually so mesmerized by a woman.

If one were to speak of who was wrong? Evidently, Qiu Mo's rudeness was clear to all. That beautiful maiden already had a husband and her husband was here among the spectators too. Yet, this Qiu Mo actually made such a proposition, intent on smacking Qin Wentian's face publicly, full of disrespect. It was no wonder that the beautiful maiden would be angered.

More and more disciples finished their concoctions. Finally, among the 130 participants, although a rare minority failed, the vast majority had managed to concoct their chosen pills. But of course, there were differences in tiers among the pills created.

The eyes of the main peak's Pill Lord flashed. He glanced at the other Pill Lords and asked, "Let's grade the immortal-king level first. Everyone, what do you all feel the ranking should be?"

"Xue Qingyang's Dragon Emperor Immortal Pill is a middle-tier seventh-grade pill. The quality of it is very high, able to explosively enhance one's combat strength. In a short period of time, it can drastically strengthen a stellar martial cultivator. It should be ranked #1." One of the Pill Lords spoke. The main peak's Pill Lord nodded with a smile. He felt this way as well.

"What about others? How do you all feel?" The main peak's Pill Lord asked. It was like the number one ranked among immortal kings had already been determined.

"Fang Yan's Golden Vajra Pill should be ranked #2. This pill is extremely difficult to concoct and after consuming it, it would allow an immortal king to transform his body temporarily into an undying body of a golden buddha, greatly boosting one's defense." Another person commented. Everyone else had no objections, hence they nodded in agreement.

As Pill Lords of the nine peaks, their judgement was naturally extremely accurate. It was easy for them to tell which of the pills were superior.

"The pill Qiu Mo concocted should be ranked #3."

"That's right, #3."

Only to see that at this moment, Qiu Mo wasn't excited at all. His expression was very calm, but he was still bothered by what happened earlier. Qiu Mo's elder had a smile on his face. Since Qiu Mo was ranked #3, this meant that he was eligible to acquire a pill concocted by the Unaging Immortal Emperor and in the future, his status here would be more stable than before. From the perspective of their clan, this undoubtedly was extremely beneficial.

Seems like the clan has to heavily nurture Qiu Mo, doing their best to aid him in pill concoction, fulfilling all his requests.

Next, the rest of the top ten were announced and the pills they concocted were brought out to be evaluated. This caused the hearts of all the spectators to pound wildly. It was rare for a majority of them to come in contact with such powerful immortal pills. Today, their horizons could be considered to have been broadened.

Out of the top ten, there were already three from the main peak, including Xue Qingyang and Qiu Mo. This caused everyone to sigh in admiration. As expected of the main peak of the nine peaks indeed.

Next, it was time for the immortal-foundation realm disciples to be evaluated.

The main peak's Pill Lord was silent for a moment. His eyes gleamed with sharpness as he pondered.

After that, he spoke, "For the immortal-foundation level, I think the Poison Calamity Pill by Jing Xiu should be ranked #1. If an immortal-foundation expert were to consume this pill, no matter how powerful they are, they would die directly without a doubt."

Among sixth-graded pills, other than immortal pills, there were also poison pills. Since this was a competition that tests the abilities of the alchemists to concoct pills, poison pills were naturally allowed as well.

"Senior brother, why didn't you check with any of us before announcing the result straight away?" Mo Qingcheng's master frowned. Before this for the judgement of the immortal-king level alchemists, the main peak's pill master sought the opinions of the other Pill Lords because he knew the results would be like what he expected.

But at this moment, during the judging for the immortal-foundation level. he actually directly announced who the #1 was and didn't seek the opinions of others. Clearly, this was extremely unusual.

"Why? Does junior sister disagree?" The main peak's Pill Lord asked.

"Obviously. The pill my disciple Mo Qingcheng has concocted is the Blood Refinement Soul Pill, the most supreme of all tiers among sixth-grades medicine. Being able to concoct such a rare pill given her current cultivation base, she should be ranked first. Jing Xiu's Poison Calamity Pill might not be bad, but the difficulty of concocting that pill pales in comparison to the Blood Refinement Soul Pill."

Mo Qingcheng's master was extremely unhappy. The thing that happened earlier was Mo Qingcheng's private matter and she had no wish to interfere. However, the ranking for this banquet should be a fair and open board thing. There was no way she could accept such an unfair judgement.

"The Blood Refinement Soul Pill might be extremely rare, but it is of no use to one's cultivation at all. How can it be ranked first? I think it can't even be ranked within the top three." The main peak's Pill Lord spoke. "Junior sister, you shouldn't be so biased because Mo Qingcheng is your disciple."

The master of Mo Qingcheng had an unsightly expression on her face. She then glanced at the other Pill Lords as she spoke, "What do you all think?"

"This…" Everyone felt a little awkward, it wasn't appropriate for them to speak too much since the main peak's Pill Lord had already made his stance clear.

If based purely on alchemic skills, clearly, the process of creating a Blood Refinement Soul Pill was higher in terms of difficulty. From this aspect, Mo Qingcheng should be ranked #1. However, because the main peak's Pill Lord had already spoken, the others didn't feel right to interfere.

Qin Wentian's countenance was unsightly as well. Qingcheng coughed out nine mouthfuls of blood to concoct this. Right now, her accomplishments were about to be neglected?

From what Mo Qingcheng's master had said, Qin Wentian was naturally very clear that the main peak's Pill Lord spoke first in order to forestall the others from speaking, making it awkward for the other Pill Lords to interfere.

"For the previous pill concoction banquet, we have always emphasized and decided the winner based on the disciple's ability to create pills. If we want to talk about the pill effects, who can say whether Feng Qingyang's Dragon Emperor Immortal Pill is better or Fang Yan's Golden Vajra Pill is better?" Mo Qingcheng's master argued.

"If we don't compare the effects of the pills, what is the meaning of this banquet?" The main peak's Pill Lord shook his head. "Among the immortal-foundation realm disciples, the Poison Calamity Pill should be ranked first. As for Mo Qingcheng, she at most can only be ranked number four."

"Master, it's okay." Mo Qingcheng's countenance was still as pale as before as she smiled at her master. Upon seeing Mo Qingcheng's state, her master couldn't help but to feel for this disciple of hers. How could she allow her disciple to suffer like this?

Qin Wentian's heart was filled with pain as well. Qingcheng put in so much effort to concoct her pill, and even the main peak's Pill Lord didn't dare to belittle the difficulty of the pill she concocted. But even so, he ranked her fourth.

Qingcheng might be able to accept this, but there was no way he could.

"Forget it." Qin Wentian sighed in his heart. He initially wanted to maintain his low profile and didn't want to disrupt Qingcheng's cultivation.

"I desire to ascend to the peak of the immortal realms. But even if my wife is a mere mortal with no cultivation, so what of it? If I really let her suffer such injustice, why the hell did I even cultivate for? What's the purpose of my cultivation?" Qin Wentian silently mused as he stood back up.
