Gu Zecang’s face was as bright as a spring breeze today. He stepped on the spirit sword and arrived in a carefree and unrestrained manner.
His Core Formation Stage cultivation base highlighted the high level of his cultivation talent.
Gu Zecang, who had reached the peak of his cultivation this time, was very satisfied with his appearance.
He believed that just his appearance and temperament today, would overwhelm everyone else.
Of course.
The prerequisite was that no one would directly spit at him the moment he landed.
“Yo yo yo, I wonder who it is? So it’s the thief who secretly learned our Pill Peak’s alchemy techniques?”
“Good fellow, how can there be such a shameless person?”
“Isn’t this the Pill Peak’s abandoned disciple? We haven’t seen you for so many days, why is it so noisy?”
While everyone was mocking, Gu Zecang didn’t say anything nor did he refute at the beginning. He directly activated his Core Formation Stage cultivation base and his aura directly rose.
“Noisy!”
“Ask the person who made a bet with me a month ago to come out and see me.”
With Gu Zecang’s talent and cultivation, to reach such a realm at this age, he could indeed be considered a genius.
But it was very obvious that the disciples of the Pill Peak wouldn’t be frightened by this bit of cultivation.
If Gu Zecang was a genius in cultivation, then they were all geniuses who could do alchemy.
The crowd slowly retreated, and a path opened up in the middle.
The few people at the banquet table from last night arrived one after another.
The leader was the Deputy Hall Master of Pill Hall No. 1 — Li Ce.
The three people behind him were the Deputy Hall Masters of Pill Hall No. 2, 3 and 4.
There were five Pill Halls in Pill Peak and four Deputy Hall Masters were present today. It could be said that they valued today’s bet.
As for the Hall Masters of the Pill Halls, they were all elders of the Pill Peak. They didn’t show up unless it was a major event. Normally, these Deputy Hall Masters would settle all matters.
“What? Are you not planning to prove your talent in alchemy and want to admit defeat directly?”
Li Ce looked at Gu Zecang, who was exuding his cultivation and said with a sneer.
As the Deputy Hall Master of the Pill Peak, not only did he achieve great success in the way of alchemy, but his cultivation was also good. He had also reached the early stage of the Core Formation. Naturally, he would not be intimidated by Gu Zecang’s cultivation level.
“If you want to admit defeat, that’s fine too. We agree. After all, the five great Pill Halls of the Pill Peak have hundreds of cauldrons waiting for you to clean up the ashes.”
“When the time comes, if you still want to secretly learn alchemy, how about we turn a blind eye?”
“Hahahahahaha.”
As soon as these mocking words were spoken, the surrounding crowd also burst into laughter.
Regarding whether or not one could secretly learn alchemy, the sect didn’t have any explicit rules because things like alchemy couldn’t be learned by those who didn’t have talent. There was no use for it.
If someone who didn’t have talent could become an alchemist just by looking, then the sect would wish for those disciples who didn’t have the alchemy talent to come and see it every day.
Wouldn’t it be good if there were many alchemy disciples?
But how could the disciples of the Pill Peak be willing to let others take a share of the spoils?
Even if they knew that these people wouldn’t be able to learn it, they would still choose to give them a good beating after letting them see it. If it wasn’t for Gu Zecang’s high cultivation, they might have started fighting that day.
“Hmph.”
Gu Zecang sheathed his sword and slowly walked forward.
“How can there still be people slandering me for secretly learning alchemy from your Pill Peak until now?”
“That day, I only took a glance at how you guys did alchemy and I was mistaken as having secretly learned it.”
“But you guys don’t know. The reason why I rejected the Pill Peak’s invitation before was that I heard that the Pill Peak’s way of alchemy had many mistakes, so I wasn’t willing to come.”
“That day, I thought that since I came to the Pill Peak, I’d take a look to see if it was as the rumors said.”
Gu Zecang shook his head lightly. “As expected, the Pill Peak’s Rank 1 way of alchemy is full of mistakes and is misleading their disciples.”
As Gu Zecang’s words fell, the attitude of the surrounding Deputy Hall Masters and Rank 1 alchemy disciples instantly changed from the initial scorn to slight anger.
The atmosphere in the surroundings had also changed from a playful one to a serious one.
“How dare you!”
“Gu Zecang, I thought you were a cultivation genius of our Center Sect. I didn’t make things difficult for you when you were secretly learning the alchemy technique from us. It’s already considered our magnanimity to let you clean up the ashes of the cauldrons for a year.”
“I didn’t expect you to spout such nonsense today!”

As the Deputy Hall Master of the Pill Peak, he had a lot of power and benefits. He was respected everywhere he went.
He had never heard of anyone slandering the Pill Peak, not even questioning it.
Moreover, he was a Rank 3 alchemist. Even if the teaching method of the Pill Peak was wrong, how could he possibly become a Rank 3 alchemist?
What a joke.
“Stop barking like crazy!”
“Our way of alchemy in the Center Sect has been passed down for so many years; how could there be any mistakes?”
“Don’t tell me you are saying that my alchemy level as a Rank 1 alchemist is fake?”
One of the Rank 1 alchemy disciples in the crowd burst out in anger on the spot after hearing this.
Hearing this, Gu Zecang chuckled twice.
Then, he looked around the crowd and said slowly,
“Let’s not talk about anything else. Even the cultivation methods of the Center Sect are reviewed by the Golden Core elders every five years.”
“If there are any mistakes or improvements, the sect will deal with them immediately and distribute the new cultivation methods to the new disciples.”
“The cultivation methods are the path to ascension, but there are still some mistakes.”
“Then how about your Pill Peak’s way of alchemy? You do not allow even the slightest bit of doubt?”
As the sound of his voice faded, the expressions of the surrounding spectators changed drastically.
It was an honor for them to become disciples of the Pill Peak. The experiences imparted to them at the Pill Peak was something they couldn’t wait to worship.
How could they stand Gu Zecang’s words?
Even though they could hear some truth in his words, when someone walked to the door of their home and questioned them, no one could easily maintain their rationality.
Even Shan Weizi, who had bet on Gu Zecang to win, was not as angry as the surrounding disciples after hearing these words. However, she was also very doubtful in her heart.
This was because she did not know if this was an excuse by Gu Zecang to escape punishment for not successfully learning alchemy by himself.
“Gu Zecang, since you dare to speak such nonsense, I believe that your understanding of alchemy must have surpassed the Pill Peak.”
“Then let’s cut the crap and directly enter the Pill Hall.”
Wang Yan, the Deputy Hall Master of Pill Hall No. 2, took a step forward and said in an icy tone.
“In any case, there was a bet between you and the disciples of our Pill Peak. Now that a month has passed, if you can refine a Rank 1 elixir, you can point out the mistakes of our Pill Peak’s alchemy skills.”
“Forget about increasing the share of medicinal elixirs, how about we invite you to the Pill Peak to teach us alchemy?”
Deputy Hall Master of Pill Hall No. 2, Wang Yan, also felt his blood boil as he spoke.
At the same time, Li Ce seemed to have thought of something as he added, “But if you fail in alchemy, then you must kneel in public and admit your mistakes to the Pill Peak, to the way of alchemy and us!”
“I’ll immediately send someone to invite the Hall Master of the Pill Hall, Elder Han, over as a witness!”
As his voice fell.
“Right, right, right. If you don’t have the ability, then you must kneel and admit your mistake!”
“That’s right, let’s see if you dare!”
The surrounding disciples also began to get excited.
Faced with the angry rebukes and angry gazes that filled the sky, at this moment, Gu Zecang had also changed his previous senseless attitude.
He had always been out of character, but he was extremely serious when it came to formal matters. He had his considerations when it came to major affairs.
If he had said before last night that there was a problem with Pill Peak’s teaching, it was just an excuse.
But last night, he had learned a lot from Junior Brother Lu. Especially after learning it, he felt even more so.
Perhaps what he said wasn’t wrong.
The alchemy skills taught by Pill Peak were not correct.
Even if they were correct, there must be better alchemy skills.
He had known that Pill Peak disciples were arrogant and conceited, but he could still understand. After all, they had talent.

However, he had not expected that after his reminder of the facts, he discovered that their current mentality had become so stubborn.
After that, Gu Zecang flung his sleeves and did not say anything else.
Under everyone’s angry gazes, he calmly walked into the Pill Hall.
Forget it.
Then today, he, Gu Zecang, would be teaching the Pill Peak on behalf of his Junior Brother Lu, what true alchemy was!
