Chapter 1006: Chapter 1005 Pill Slave?

Dalila Leehan sent back a soul transmission to her protector without a change in expression because of disobedience.

"It's alright! I respect his skills as an alchemist as it is... better than... mine." Dalila Leehan's expression produced a blush as it was hard for her to accept her inferiority but placed with facts, she knew that she had to swallow it or it wouldn't be good for her future.

"However, I need to know if this pill is what he claimed to be..." Dalila Leehan's lips slightly curved in a request.

"Yahu, can I rely on you?"

Yahu's big lips slightly curved as he smiled, "If young miss commands this deacon, then this deacon has no choice but to follow. Nevertheless, young miss has never mistreated me before, so I believe in young miss would not command me to do this dangerous act if young miss wasn't at least half sure..."

'Don't worry, I believe in my ability to see a person for who they are... and in my eyes...' Dalila Leehan didn't say anything but looked towards Alchemist Davis as she possessed a complex expression on her face.

"Let us start to test the veracity of the pill then..." She echoed at Alchemist Davis.

Davis looked at the others and saw that they did not object. It seemed that they were also extremely curious to know if his claim was true, but that much was obvious to see just by their initial reactions. However, he was going to feed this pill to a literal, living person!

Weren't they afraid that something untoward might happen, leading to a power dispute between the Alstreim Family and the Thousand Pill Palace?

Did they believe in his skills that much?

If this were the modern world, how many trials would he have gone through just to test it on a human subject? Of course, there were lots of illegal ways, but this was happening right in front of the public, and no one batted an eye.

This blinding reality between Earth and the cultivation world sure did put a rueful smile on his face.

In any case, seeing that they had no problem with testing the pill on a live subject, he looked towards the man called Yahu, the current Pill Warrior, but can also be derogatorily called a Pill Slave as Yahu seemed to be ready to check the effects of the pill with his own body without any form of payment.

Nevertheless, there were differences between the two.

Pill Warriors had their freedom to reject, but Pill Slaves did not as they were actual slaves controlled by a certain person or an alchemist. However, they both would lay their lives on the line to check the positive effects and the negative effects of pills invented or produced by alchemists.

Yahu could actually be called a Pill Warrior, but outwardly, almost everyone perceived him to be a Protector but also a Pill Slave since he didn't seem to say a single word of protest from the moment he stepped on to this stage.

Davis remained curious before he opened his mouth, "Before we begin, I want to know around when this elder reached the Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage and the current age."

Yahu didn't hesitate to open his wide lips, "I reached Peak-Level Martial Ascendance Stage a thousand years ago, and my current age is somewhere around eight thousand and five hundred years."

'So he's not a Pill Slave...' At the first questioning, Davis saw through him as he sensed an aura of confidence instead of nervousness, indifference, or fear from him. He did become a bit surprised by the other party's age but nodded his head.

"Have you tried to breakthrough before?"

"Yes, I have already tried that pill, but I failed as many times as I tried. My last try was around two hundred years ago."

'As expected, a person from the Thousand Pill Palace seemly does not lack the wealth or connections to gain breakthrough pills of the Low-Level King Grade...' Davis mused as he nodded.

"So it is quite recent when considering your age... So if you were to retake those pills, do you believe that you can break through to the Martial Master Stage?

Yahu suddenly looked lost before he clenched his fists as his muscles trembled.

"It's hopeless... I have given up!"

A second later, he relaxed and opened his big lips, "My Body Tempering Cultivation has reached the peak, but both my talent and effort are lacking!"

"I see... In any case, I am confident about my claim, but what if this pill of mine ends up injuring you because of your lack of talent to breakthrough?"

Everyone's expressions changed as Alchemist Davis's words edged over the borderline, making him escape scot-free even if something untoward happened to Yahu!

"Alchemist Davis... You..." Dalila Leehan suddenly echoed but was interrupted.

"I have reached the Law Sea Stage and am working towards entering the Mid-Level Law Sea Stage. I still have 1,500 years more to live. Therefore, I will consider a trauma from this as nothing more than a small price to pay to make young miss happier!"

'Yahu...' Dalila Leehan inwardly sighed.

Her father had saved Yahu's family once from the brink of destruction, and ever since then, Yahu joined the Thousand Pill Palace as a deacon and devoted his life to protect her from all harm.

This was simply him returning the gratitude he received to her father back.

Davis laughed, "Haha... It is admirable to see someone devout themselves to another person, but what if the pill's essence were to become volatile because you can't control it?"

This time, everyone's expression, including Yahu's, changed like a ripple in a bucket of water. The latter could no longer keep his calm as his eyes narrowed a bit.

Davis abnormally smirked as he continued.

"Because of your Law Sea Stage Cultivation, it is obvious that you won't die, but there is no assurance that you will accidentally have your body crippled..."

"Enough... No matter what happens, there is absolutely no fault with you or my young miss. After all, it is I who am choosing to volunteer and test the effects of the pill."

"Great!" Davis turned his head to look at Dalila Leehan, who seemed to be now looking at him with a bit of anger.

"Since your Protector is clear-minded about the liability, who is going to pay for this pill?"

"You! You want me to pay!?" Dalila Leehan clenched her fists and was about to lose her mind, but she stopped almost instantly.

Davis kept smiling as he didn't even need to say it.

She recalled that alchemists have all right to sell their pills, even if it is not verified and authentic, but of course, once it's known that the pill is a phony, that alchemist's reputation would drop to the gutter, and next time, the common populace would stay wary of that alchemist, never to visit again!

"Sure, it's just payment for a single Low-Level King Grade Pill... Why not?" Dalila Leehan snorted in annoyance.

"Low-Level King Grade? Do you even realize the value of this pill?"

Dalila Leehan's expression froze as she saw Davis's amused expression.
