C74 The humiliation of the Alchemy Department!

"You are the empire's Third Princess after all, how did you end up like this?" Ye Wuchen was shocked when he entered the house. The hut was originally a simple and unadorned cottage, but who knew that the furnishings inside were so old? There was a simple wooden bed, a table made of wooden stakes, and a broken chair.

There was a crunching sound as he stepped on the floor. He was worried that he would miss a step and fall down. However, although the room was shabby, the faint fragrance of lotus flowers and the fragrance of a woman wafted in the air.

"Take a seat!" Qin Ziqing flipped open the oil lamp on the bedside and slowly lit it up. The interior of the wooden house instantly became much brighter, and two human figures appeared on the wall.

"Will you laugh at me?" Qin Ziqing pursed her lips and smiled, she was lying on the bed, because her butt was swollen, so she was probably going to lie down and be unable to move, it was all Ye Wuchen's fault.

"What are you laughing at? Your experiences are quite bitter, but you don't know what happened to me when I was a child, so how did you know that I would laugh at you? " Ye Wuchen curled his lips and laughed, then sat on the chair.

The atmosphere soon turned silent. One of them was lying on the bed while the other was sitting on a chair. There was actually no topic to talk about and it was also very awkward.

"Um, what's your name?" Qin Ziqing could not stand this awkward atmosphere, so she took the initiative to break the oppressive atmosphere and inquired Ye Wuchen. She wanted to get to know the other party.

"Ye Wuchen!"

"Oh, you're a disciple of the Alchemy Department?" Qin Ziqing nodded calmly with a smile, and continued to ask, obviously she did not know who Ye Wuchen was.

"I guess so, today is my first time joining a Alchemy Department!" Ye Wuchen nodded slightly.

"First day? Then how dare you come here? Don't you know that this is Dan Feng's forbidden area? " Qin Ziqing was a little surprised and puzzled. The area that she lived in, which had a radius of fifty miles, was a forbidden area that was set up personally by the imperial family.

"Whether or not I enter the forbidden zone doesn't mean much to me. I can come and go as I please!" Ye Wuchen laughed disdainfully, he was not being arrogant and conceited, but was a type of confidence, a confidence in strength.

Hearing this, Qin Ziqing's gaze became sluggish, as she was somewhat unable to believe that there was such an arrogant disciple in the Alchemy Department who was very similar to that person.

"You can leave now, I need to rest!" Qin Ziqing clenched his teeth, and said bashfully.

Ye Wuchen was startled, then he laughed bitterly, he had actually forgotten, even though this was a wooden house, it was also a girl's room, it was not good for him to walk in so casually.

"Alright, you take good care of yourself. I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow morning. Your movements are inconvenient and it's because of me, so I'll take care of you these few days!" Ye Wuchen smiled faintly, then stood up and pushed open the wooden door and walked out.

"You …" Qin Ziqing wanted to say that she didn't need to, but Ye Wuchen's figure was nowhere to be seen. She couldn't help but clench her teeth, feeling embarrassed and angry, but at the same time, she couldn't blame it all on Ye Wuchen.

So to a certain extent, Ye Wuchen was also her savior, but he did not really understand this savior.

After Ye Wuchen left the place, he quickly returned to his own courtyard to prepare for rest.

But just as he turned back, the Elder Tan behind him ran in with a pale face and panted heavily.

"Dustless Little Friend, hurry and go to the Great Assembly Hall, something happened to Alchemy Department!" The Elder Tan gasped for breath, while extending his arm, his face filled with sincerity as he begged.

Ye Wuchen was a little surprised, but he did not immediately take action. He would not do things that he did not understand.

"Elder Tan, what happened? for you to be so anxious? " Ye Wuchen laughed and poured Elder Tan a cup of tea, but at the moment, the old man did not have the time to drink it, he could only shout out: "The Great Clan Elder from the Pill Palace has defeated Elder Guo, and we have lost the competition!"

"Lost? Elder Guo lost? " Ye Wuchen was a little astonished but he was also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, Elder Guo's pill refinement had already reached the pinnacle of perfection, how could he lose?

"Sigh, disgraceful. This time, Alchemy Department lost face for the master!" Elder Tan wanted to cry. If he could cry, he would cry.

"Oh, why do you say that?" Even though Ye Wuchen had heard the news of Elder Guo's defeat, he was still very calm and did not lose his train of thoughts.

"Because, because the Great Elder of the Alchemy Hall let the news out before he came, there were no less than a few hundred faction elders and heaven's pride experts in the entire Imperial College, both inside and outside!"

"Now it's fine, the Elder Guo has failed, this time we lost a lot of face!"

"Alchemy Department's Elder Zhou is not present. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suffered such a crushing defeat!" Elder Tan said, his face was bitter, but he quickly regained his senses and laughed bitterly: "You, quickly come with me!"

Without waiting for Ye Wuchen to get a clear answer, the Elder Tan became anxious and immediately flew to the Great Assembly Hall with Ye Wuchen by the arm. Ye Wuchen could only go with the Elder Tan.

Since he had joined the Alchemy Department, then the honor and disgrace of the Alchemy Department was also related to him. Alchemy Department being teased by the entire Imperial College was not a good thing for him either.

He did not want to be pointed at and pointed at by the disciples of the other factions after he left Dan Feng, nor did he want the disciples of the Alchemy Department to be humiliated by the disciples of the other factions.

Time passed very quickly, and at midnight, the Procedural Hall was already filled with people. Outside of the hall, the two pill furnaces were standing on top of the plaza.

The firelight shone on the faces of every disciple and elder of the Alchemy Department, but most of them had the same expression, which was ugly.

As for the elders and disciples of the other factions, most of them carried expressions of playfulness and ridicule on their faces. Everyone was not thinking about Imperial College's collective humiliation, but rather enjoyed seeing his appearance after being humiliated.

Elder Guo was silent at the moment, but his fist had already smashed into the ground of the plaza, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, his eyes were red, he lost, without any warning, he lost the Pill Competition, this was unbearable.

He did not dare to claim that he was an outstanding individual in the Grade Three Alchemist, but at least he would not lose so miserably. However, he lost to Great Elder Dan Feng of the Pellet Hall just like that.

Opposite Elder Guo stood a middle aged man, dressed in a blue robe with a jade belt at his waist, giving off a feeling of elegance. His appearance was average, but his innate temperament was something that others could not learn from.

He was none other than the Great Elder, Dan Feng. Even though he was only thirty years old, he was already the most outstanding out of all of the Grade Three Alchemist, and his cultivation had even broken through the Holy Spirit Third Level.

And this time, not only was there Great Elder Dan Feng, even Third Elder Zhu Qingping was behind him. There was also a powerless alchemist in the field who had been invited by the Pill Hall, who was also from Grade Three Alchemist.

The atmosphere was heavy, because all the Alchemy Department s were waiting for Elder Zhou to return. Elder Zhou was the highest ranked elder in the Alchemy Department, a fourth ranked alchemist, which also represented the highest level of alchemy in the Imperial College. As long as Elder Zhou returned, the Great Elder of the Alchemy Hall would be killed within seconds.

It was a pity that Elder Zhou had not returned from his trip out. Perhaps the Pill Palace had already found out that Elder Zhou was not in the Alchemy Department, so they took the opportunity to come over.

With regards to the matter of refining pills, the Yuan Wu Empire had always relied on the Alchemy Department s. After all, they belonged to the imperial family of the Empire, which made it difficult for the pills from the Pill Hall to flow into the main hall.

This must have been planned for a long time.

"Hehe, this time Alchemy Department is considered dead this time right?"

The young talent dressed in golden cannons stood in front of the densely packed crowd, his body was tattooed with pythons, which meant that he was the prince himself. And he was none other than the Ninth Prince, Qin Liuyang.

"If Elder Zhou does not return, it will be hard to turn the tables around!"

As soon as Qin Liuyang's words fell, a figure suddenly appeared beside him. His black robe was tight, and one could not see his face, and his voice carried a ghastly coldness.

"Ninth Prince, long time no see!" Shen Ning faintly smiled, her eyes emitting traces of a sinister light. However, her smile gave off a strange feeling.

"Hur hur, I didn't expect the student union to join in on the fun!" Qin Liuyang spoke a few words in fear, and then did not say another word, because Shen Wan was the head disciple of the student council, and had a very high position.

Grand Marquis was very clear that neither of them dared to attack him, unless they had to pay the price of fighting to the death.

"Enough, stop arguing!"

Suddenly, a slightly hoarse angry shout rang out in the plaza before the Procedural Hall. Instantly, everyone's voices disappeared and the atmosphere immediately froze.

The three of them looked at the young man wielding the heavy sword at the very front. He was dressed in a blood-red long robe, and it gave people a feeling of terrifying death, causing them to not dare go near him.

Qin Yantian!

One of the two ultimate powers, royal Baili Chi, and empire Qin Yantian, were known as the two ultimate powers that no one dared to offend.

The atmosphere became completely silent with Qin Yantian's angry shout.

Near the two stoves, the Elder Guo had no choice but to accept his failure. He had said that the grade three pills he had refined were of the highest quality, whether in terms of quality or medicinal effects.

"Quickly, Dustless Little Friend, this time, the honor and disgrace of Alchemy Department depends on you!" The Elder Guo prayed in his heart for the Elder Tan to bring Ye Wuchen here quickly. With Elder Zhou not present, the only person who could compete with Dan Feng was Ye Wuchen.

At least Ye Wuchen had a Grade Three Alchemist.

"Senior Guo, I don't have time to waste here with you guys. Where is the person you said can defeat me?"

"Since there's no one here, let's go!" Dan Feng frowned, he scolded angrily and impatiently, he waved his hand, preparing to leave with the people from the Pill Hall.

Hehe, a guest coming from afar, a guest who hasn't even had a cup of tea yet is leaving like this, this isn't Alchemy Department's way of entertaining guests. Guest, please have a cup of tea!

Swoosh!

The sound of breaking air rang out. Everyone's eyes widened as they saw a teacup fly over from midair. The tea cup was wrapped in Essence and was extremely imposing. It didn't look like they were inviting tea but rather a test.

"Humph, I don't drink tea that can only be respected by cats and dogs!" Dan Feng bellowed, he waved his hand and a burst of Spirit Qi immediately burst out, with a Pah sound, his teacup was shattered, and tea was poured all over the floor.

At the same time, two figures slowly appeared in everyone's line of sight.

Seeing Ye Wuchen's arrival, the disciples of the Alchemy Department were all overjoyed.

Qin Liuyang and Shen Wan both frowned.

"Ye Wuchen?"
