The Peerless Master

Just as Uncle Bai was about to despair, the sound of a battle rang out from within the Return of Spring Hall. A few figures flew out of the door in a sorry state and smashed a large number of onlookers who were about to enter.

"Master Tao Rui is here." Following the shout, a man walked out of the Return of Spring Hall with an unfriendly expression.

Everyone turned to look and saw that those who had rushed into the Return of Spring Hall had all backed out nervously. Behind them, a man with a furious expression was walking slowly.

This person was Tao Rui. He must have changed greatly a year ago. His originally thin body had grown quite a bit over the past year, and his entire body was filled with the dignity of a person in power.

"Greetings Master Tao Rui!" Many people began to bow in respect. The standing of an apothecary was of utmost importance.

Tao Rui did not say anything. He continued to sweep his eyes over the crowd with a cold expression. Those who met his gaze involuntarily lowered their heads.

Within the Return of Spring Hall, the sounds of fighting could still be heard. Occasionally, someone would be thrown out and accurately hit a pile not far away from Tao Rui.

Finally, as the last troublemaker was thrown out, a bearded man clapped his hands and walked to Tao Rui's side. He reported, "Master, the rats inside have been cleaned up."

When he said those words, be it those who had run out earlier or those who had been thrown out later, their faces were all filled with humiliation. They, a dignified cultivator, had actually been called a mouse. But then he thought, isn't taking advantage of the situation to rob people as wretched as a mouse?

"You guys, Chang Hai told you guys to come and cause trouble, right?" Tao Rui looked at the woman who was still wiping away her tears and the few burly men who were carrying the coffins, then said with a stern voice, "You really think highly of me, the Return of Spring Hall. Just by saying 'dead bodies', you have fooled everyone."

"You poisoned my Dao-companion, and you still want to deny it?" The woman jumped up anxiously like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

On the other side, voices of condemnation erupted from all directions. If one was careful, one would be able to notice that the people who were shouting were the ones who had just incited the onlookers to make trouble.

However, at this moment, the crowd's attention was clearly not here. It was the nature of the majority of people, and if someone shouted, they would subconsciously agree, especially in this situation.

"Master Tao Rui, you have to give me an explanation today!" After one person expressed their stance, many people began to follow.

"That's right, Tao Rui. Today, you must give everyone an explanation!" A group of people suddenly parted the crowd and walked into the arena.

"Chang Hai!" Tao Rui frowned and said in a more sinister tone: "You've arranged all of this, haven't you?"

The person who came was the first Alchemy Master of Eastwood Town, and also the current deputy mayor of Eastwood Town, Chang Hai. At this moment, Chang Hai was looking at Tao Rui with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. He couldn't help but gloat: "Tao Rui, don't push this matter onto me. Everyone can see that the jade bottle belongs to you, Return of Spring Hall. Do you look like a master alchemist by shunning responsibility? "

"Exactly! "Since I can't take on any responsibility, I might as well get the hell out of my position as an alchemist grandmaster." In every corner, angry curses could be heard once again, as if they had been rehearsed long ago.

"Chang Hai, what do you mean by that?" Tao Rui's face darkened and said angrily: "Whether my Returning Spring Hall pills have poisoned them or not has not been decided. When will it be your turn to intervene?"

With that, Tao Rui walked to Uncle Bai's side, took the jade bottle, and poured out the pills.

This was a yellow-brown medicinal pill, and in terms of appearance, it was an ordinary Origin Condensation Pill.

Tao Rui furrowed his brows as he carefully examined the pill in his hand. Suddenly, he raised his head and swallowed the pill.

"Grandmaster Tao, you can't!" Uncle White wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

The crowd was shocked. They didn't think that Tao Rui would dare to swallow a pill. Could it be that this pill really wasn't some poison?

Only Chang Hai still had a confident smile on his face, as if he had already made up his mind.

"Everyone, this is an ordinary Origin Condensation Pill! It has no poison at all!" Tao Rui raised the jade bottle in his hand and poured all the pills into his mouth and swallowed them all.

"It's really fine?" Someone questioned, "Could it be that this person was not poisoned to death by the pills of the Return of Spring Hall?"

Just when everyone was at a loss, Chang Hai, who hadn't said anything, suddenly laughed out loud, "What a good Tao Rui, do you think that you'll be fine just by changing the pill while you're testing it?"

"You're slandering me!" Tao Rui's face was red with indignation.

"I saw it!" I saw him swapping pills. It turns out that bottle was already stored in his storage space. "

"I saw it too!" Another person said.

Then, one by one, witnesses jumped out, accusing Tao Rui of changing the pills.

"You … "You all..." Tao Rui couldn't take it anymore and finally spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down on the ground. For a grandmaster apothecary to be so infuriated to the point that he vomited blood, this was truly lamentable.

"Everyone, the Return of Spring Hall sells fake medicine and thinks nothing of human life. As the deputy mayor of the Eastwood Town, I will absolutely not allow something like this to happen in the town." Seeing that the time was right, Chang Hai's expression immediately changed. He spoke with a righteous tone, "Today, I will use the vice mayor's authority to completely seal off this shop that would ruin an apothecary's reputation!"

With that, Chang Hai waved his hand and the four cultivators following him immediately walked back to the Spring Hall's entrance.

"If you want to destroy the store, you have to get past me first!" The one who spoke was the bearded brawny man who followed Tao Rui. With a solemn expression, he blocked the four cultivators. He did not give a single step, releasing the aura of an Aurous Core stage cultivator!

Powerful alchemists had followers, and Tao Rui was no exception. This bearded strong man was his follower.

"Hmph, are you looking to die?" The four cultivators coldly laughed in unison as their energy exploded from their bodies, covering the entire sky as they charged towards the stubble man.

"They are actually all Mid Jindan Stage experts!" A wave of exclamations came from the crowd, "This time, the Return of Spring Hall is doomed."

Uncle Bai looked dejected. "Could it be that my Return of Spring Hall is about to be destroyed by this conspiracy?"

The bearded strong man did not back off. He calmly looked at the four late stage Jindan Stage experts who were several times stronger than him, and looked as if he was ready to die.

The smiles on the faces of the four cultivators became colder and colder. Killing intent had filled their entire bodies, and in the next moment, it was time to kill!

"Wait!" At this moment, a heavy male voice rang out. Everyone only felt a flash as a man suddenly appeared beside the coffin. "I can prove that this has nothing to do with the Return of Spring Hall."

Following his words, everyone's eyes locked onto him with a "sou" sound.

"Mr. Chen Feng!" Tao Rui and Uncle Bai shouted in unison, their faces full of surprise and joy.
