The person who arrived was called 'Young Master Tuoba' by Muf Leiyun. Putting everything else aside, just the na Tuoba alone has a significant background within the ten thousand miles of land governed by Ghost Wolf City.
Although the history of the Tuoba Family is a bit thorny and tumultuous, coming from a distant Outer Domain northern city as refugees, it is indeed a very ancient family with a long-standing inheritance and unparalleled alchemy technique!
Without the appearance of an Alchemy Master, almost no one can surpass them.
Although the Tuoba Family possesses unmatched alchemy technique, they are few in number, and because they are outsiders with an unremarkable background, most of their disciples choose to join the major top-level forces in Ghost Wolf City as a ans to protect themselves wisely.
Transforming their alchemy skills into resources and serving other top-level forces is also a way to indirectly block any thoughts those forces might have of targeting them. Otherwise, they might not be able to establish themselves in Ghost Wolf City.
No matter what, even with a special status, the identity as an Alchemist remains unquestionable—noble and highly esteed.
Moreover, every mber of the Tuoba Family sent out is a true elite!
Such as the individual appearing now, nad Tuoba Bo, one of the two most outstanding genius mbers of the Tuoba Family in a hundred years, with alchemy skills of exceptional proficiency, even a major force like Floating Immortal Pavilion holds them in high regard.
"Mu Deacon, is this the alchemist genius who has been making waves within the pavilion recently? Hmm, quite handso, but perhaps you've misjudged this ti? Haha, hahaha!"
Tuoba Bo looked at Muf Leiyun, laughing and speaking, with the corners of his eyes glancing at Chen Fei, revealing intense disdain, mockery, and hostility.
It was as if Chen Fei had taken sothing away from him!
And indeed, it seems that might be the case.
Tuoba Bo is thirty-five years old this year, which, by Cultivation World age standards, is considered quite young. Yet at this age, he has achieved the 'dual feat' of being a Fourth Grade Low Grade Alchemist and attaining the First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm!
Exaggeratingly speaking, Tuoba Family would be proud of Tuoba Bo!
With such astonishing talent, he would undoubtedly attempt to reach the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm and beco a Fifth Level Pill Master, without a problem.
Even in a hundred years, the number of such astonishingly talented individuals birthed in Ghost Wolf City would not exceed twenty!
Thus, Floating Immortal Pavilion attaches great importance to such a top talent, seeking to attract them to join their ranks. Even previously, within their Ghost Wolf City branch, it was universally recognized that the core mber recomndation quota for the past ten years was surely Tuoba Bo's, undeniably fixed.
Although this hasn't been verbally promised by the three big shots of the branch, that is, no commitnt has been made, Tuoba Bo sees no difference!
Because, can anyone be more exceptional than him, Tuoba Bo? Certainly not! Absolutely.
Since there isn't, then if not him, who else should get this quota with reason and persistence in his mind.
However, his notion has been greatly shaken and changed recently when the Second Level Superior Six-pattern Cloud Vein Pill appeared and fell into the hands of their Floating Immortal Pavilion.
As an Alchemist, he understood the terrifying alchemy technique required to refine such a precious pill! Even the majority of elders within the Tuoba Family would undoubtedly be unable to do it.
Therefore, if the Six-pattern Cloud Vein Pill were refined by so renowned senior expert, he would have no complaints! As it's only natural.
If not accomplished by a famous senior expert, it would be impossible to produce such a top-grade treasure pill!
But the news he received afterward astonished him, leaving him speechless and completely unable to believe!
The Six-pattern Cloud Vein Pill was actually crafted by an Alchemist about the sa age as him, Tuoba Bo?
This left him, who has always claid to have 'the world's best alchemy technique among peers,' with nowhere to hide in sha!?
Following this, more news ca out that within the pavilion, two of the three influential big shots simultaneously expressed a willingness to recruit the counterpart in exchange for strong cultivation support…
Strong cultivation support, what is that? Isn't it the Floating Immortal Pavilion headquarters core mber quota that Tuoba Bo had already seen as his own?
Instantly, his inner hostility, anger, greed, and various negative emotions were completely exposed.
He naturally cannot tolerate having his own possessions taken away by soone! Nor could he tolerate soone among his peers surpassing him, Tuoba Bo, in alchemy skills as an alchemy genius?
That is absolutely impossible!
Hence, he ca chasing here today, even witnessing the previous spectacle firsthand.
Haha, not interested in Earth Martial City? Such lofty and dignified words, but it's clear this kid dared not go! Afraid he'd be exposed, right?
Upon hearing Chen Fei's 'sly explanation,' he was even more convinced! This kid, absolutely not the one who refined the Six-pattern Cloud Vein Pill.
Mostly, this kid was lucky and got such a batch of Six-pattern Cloud Vein Pills from sowhere, right?
In short, it's just good luck! A stroke of luck. This pill could never have been made by him.
"Young Master Tuoba, what brings you here?" Muf Leiyun's face imdiately turned awkward, looking at Tuoba Bo with a not-so-pleasant expression.
Obviously, he didn't expect that this Tuoba Bo would secretly follow him from miles away just to stir things up. He hadn't known before that the other party would co along as well.
"If I hadn't co, our Floating Immortal Pavilion would have been deceived. Shouldn't I have co?" Tuoba Bo sneered coldly, looking at Chen Fei with disdain.
"What's wrong, now that I've exposed you, are you speechless?"
Exposed? Speechless?
Chen Fei raised his head and looked at the other party, feeling both speechless and as if he was looking at an idiot.
This moron just starts monologuing as soon as he arrives, is he acting?
"What kind of look is that?" Tuoba Bo seed to understand the aning behind Chen Fei's gaze, frowned, and spoke coldly: "Do you know who I am? Or are you just outraged now that I've exposed you?"
Hearing this, Chen Fei was instantly speechless. Who's the one really outraged here? Is your self-comforting, monologuing, and 'turning black into white' really a good thing?
Facing soone like this, even soone as sharp-tongued as Chen Fei didn't know what to say for a mont.
He's not afraid of bullies, pretenders, or even people who argue with him, but he's 'afraid' of those who have a ntal illness, talking in their dreams about pointing out the world, leaving him with no way to rebut! Leaving him speechless.
"Exposed? Sorry, can you tell precisely how I've been exposed?" After 'a long pause,' he looked at the other with a weird expression and asked.
"What, you still want to play dumb?" Tuoba Bo raised an eyebrow, coldly and disdainfully said: "If I'm not mistaken, this Six-Pattern Cloud Vein Pill, you don't even know where it ca from, right?"
Hearing this, Chen Fei suddenly felt a bit 'tired' and scratched his head, looking at the other and asked: "Oh, and what makes you say that?"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing that, Tuoba Bo frowned even more, looking at Chen Fei's expression with disdain, even a bit cold, as if feeling this person was being incredibly ungrateful.
All his disguises had been seen through, yet he still wanted to keep pretending? How naive.
"Kid, it seems like you are not even an Alchemist, that's why you're this naive."
With that, Tuoba Bo said it with a mocking smile, full of ridicule.
"Indeed, only soone who's not an Alchemist wouldn't understand the preciousness of such a top-grade treasure like the Six-Pattern Cloud Vein Pill. It looks like you haven't realized just how precious this pill is, right? You probably just think it's a bit more valuable than a regular Yunmai Pill, which is why you disguise and pretend, claiming this is your own making. Ha, truly naive to the extre."
His words were generous, impassioned, with vivid emotions, even Muf Leiyun felt a little shaken after hearing it, having second thoughts.
Indeed, how precious is the Six-Pattern Cloud Vein Pill? If it were made by an Alchemist, how could they bear to sell it easily? And for such a low price...
Back when their Floating Immortal Pavilion had the chance to acquire this Six-Pattern Cloud Vein Pill, the price was almost like getting it for free.
If he were really an Alchemist, how could he not understand these things!?
For a mont, he again looked at Chen Fei with a hesitant and puzzled expression.
"Haha, are you speechless?"
Seeing the wavering expression on Muf Leiyun's face, the smugness and mockery on Tuoba Bo's face grew even stronger.
He then looked at Chen Fei, suddenly with a fierce glare, his voice sowhat cold: "Kid, daring to impersonate the esteed identity of an Alchemist, you are truly fearless! Do you really not respect us esteed Alchemists with such behavior?"
The more he spoke, the more logical it seed, the more he spoke, the more serious he got. In the end, he even showed a bit of killing intent towards Chen Fei.
He had no choice; this 'fraudster' almost snatched away his core mber recomndation quota, how could he not be angry? How could he not feel humiliated?
However, hearing this, Chen Fei was finally getting a bit impatient, looking at Tuoba Bo, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said in an indifferent tone: "Although you've been talking to yourself for so long, you must be tired, but I still want to know how you determined this Yunmai Pill wasn't made by ? Or are you simply narrow-minded, thinking that soone my age couldn't possibly be a more powerful Alchemist than you?"
These words imdiately changed Muf Leiyun's expression, his eyes flickered slightly. Because what Chen Fei said was too straightforward...
But indeed, if it wasn't that Tuoba Bo wasn't willing to or didn't dare to admit that among his peers, there might be a more powerful Alchemist than him, why else would he go through all the trouble to disrupt things here?
In simple terms, he's afraid that he himself won't be taken seriously, getting replaced by soone else, and thus losing the decade-long core mber recomndation quota...
After all, the core mber recomndation quota, their Ghost Wolf City branch gets one only every ten years.
Tuoba Bo certainly couldn't wait for the next ten years. That was way too long.
