Chapter 2144 Insult

Chapter 2144 Insult

'That's right, there's still the practical portion. Even if this mortal boy is a genius in theory, mortals who can sustain their soul qi long enough to concoct even one immortal pill are too rare, let alone three of them.'

Venerable Taline had no idea that her thoughts were nearly identical to Venerable Piers. Unfortunately for them, the disappointment would be just as profound.

"You choose." Dyon said with a shrug.

"What?" Not just Venerable Taline, but all of the Venerables were shocked beyond belief.

Which of them hadn't drilled themselves, slaving over the same three pills for countless years? Before they even set foot into their certification exams, they had had this list of three prepared. Yet this mortal boy actually asked them to choose?

What they didn't know was that this would truly be Dyon's first time concocting immortal grade pills, if what he had done for the hook-nosed old lady was ignored, that is. There simply weren't any immortal grade herbs on the mortal plane, so where would he?

He would have used [Simulating the Hands of a Deity], but he had to lay his eyes on the real herb before he could do so. And for obvious reasons, Dyon wouldn't have been able to meet this requirement.

If the Venerables knew this truth, they likely would have laughed uproariously, finally believing that they had cornered him. But they had no ability to read Dyon's mind even if he had gotten rid of The Seal. His soul was too much more powerful than their own.

"I'm only thinking of your establishment. If I named some obscure pill, what are the odds this small place would have all of the ingredients?"

Dyon's sly words lit a flame under the Venerables, but at the same time, they bit their tongues.

Piers had indeed been planning on naming one of the more difficult pills of the Lower Venerable grade, but he just barely hid his blush of embarrassment when he realized they simply didn't have the heavenly herbs needed for it.

"What is it? Don't tell me you've changed your mind? This is a certification exam, not a playground. I've already inputted your choices. Or is it that you believe my small establishment can't take these things out?"

Dyon smiled lightly, shaking his head. "No, I'm sure you can. I can see that you're no longer a virgin, yet your soul isn't bound to anyone, so you aren't married nor do you have a dao companion. A beauty like you could surely... trade for these things."

"What did you just say to me?!"

Taline's aura rampaged, causing the stunned civilian observers to retreat several hundred meters. Unfortunately for her, her reaction caused many to look toward her skeptically.

"I was only speaking the truth, no need to get angry. I only had a simple question. These pills I concoct, can I keep them?"

Taline's chest rose and fell with alluring and violent rolls, her visage a deep shade of red. It seems Dyon had struck a nerve.

Who asked her to try to insult Saru and Lilith before? As if she could afford these ingredients by normal means with her meagre skills.

"... I hope for your sake that you don't fail..."

A bloodthirsty aura wafted from the vice deputy. It was clear to them that this wasn't only a warning to Dyon, but a warning to them as well. If she heard anyone spreading rumors, their death would be imminent.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to undo what Dyon had already done. Absolutely Impossible.

It was a secret that the vice deputy and the guild head had an ambiguous relationship. However, who would peek into such a thing? They all wanted to keep their lives.
