The crowd was in shock. One by one, their eyes widened as they were simply unable to believe it. This was something that the Master himself had not been able to accomplish so how could the disciple had been successful instead?"How can this be?" Great Master Wu Yin"s voice trembled. He then staggered towards Gu Ruoyun and accepted the pill that Gu Ruoyun handed to him before exhaling fiercely, "That"s right, this is the Clear Sky Pill!"
Great Master Wu Yin may have wanted to strike Bai Zhongtian down but being the arrogant person that he was, he would never behave in an underhanded way. Hence, he had given Gu Ruoyun recognition for refining the correct pill from the pill formula.
"However, even if you"ve managed to refine the pill correctly, we are only evenly matched. For me to lose, you"ll have to produce a pill formula that I cannot refine." Great Master Wu Yin took a deep breath before he raised his head to face Gu Ruoyun.
Gu Ruoyun laughed before she casually pulled out a pill formula from her sleeve and placed it in front of Great Master Wu Yin. "I wonder if you"d be able to refine this?"
This pill formula had not come from the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da. Instead, it was a formula which she had created on her own not too long ago. This was also the same formula which had produced the pill that the Vermillion Bird had used on Lan Shao as an experiment. After all, the pill formulas from the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da were far too precious. She would never take them out for someone else no matter what.
"This..."
Great Master Wu Yin accepted the pill formula which Gu Ruoyun handed to him. He was immediately shocked when he looked at the contents of the pill formula. After a while, he returned to his senses, shook his head and said, "I"m sorry, I can"t refine this pill."
At his level, he could determine whether he has the ability to refine the pill from a pill formula in one glance. Of course, if Gu Ruoyun agrees to give him a few more days, he would be able to study it properly. Now that this was a compet.i.tion, why would the opponent give him the chance for a breather?
"Since you"ve lost, you"ll have to remember your promise."
Gu Ruoyun did not spare Great Master Wu Yin another glance as she turned around and approached Bai Zhongtian. She then calmly exclaimed, "Master, I"ve helped you attain justice."
Bai Zhongtian sighed. He never expected that he, as the Master, would still need his disciple to avenge him! However, what he felt was mostly pride. As her Master, how could he not feel proud to have such an outstanding disciple?
"Bai Zhongtian, you"ve accepted a good disciple."
Great Master Wu Yin finally returned to his senses before he sighed and laughed bitterly.
He had been Bai Zhongtian"s rival for so many years yet he never thought that the tables would turn and he would lose to Bai Zhongtian"s disciple. This defeat was even more uncomfortable than losing to Bai Zhongtian himself.
"Haha," Bai Zhongtian burst into laughter and his smile was filled with pride. "Of course, didn"t you see whose precious disciple she is? How could a disciple of mine, Bai Zhongtian, be subpar? Wu Yin, I"ve finally defeated you this time. Don"t you forget our wager."
Great Master Wu Yin laughed icily and replied sourly, "The person who had won against me is your disciple, not you. Why are you being so proud?"
If he had a disciple like this, he would be very proud as well. Yet this idiot, Bai Zhongtian, had ended up catching this good opportunity! If he had known about this, he would never have left the East Peak Mainland. Perhaps he would have found this little girl before Bai Zhongtian.
"She is my disciple. I had nurtured her so her victory is my victory," Bai Zhongtian raised his brow complacently as he exclaimed shamelessly. "What, not satisfied? Get a disciple like this if you have the ability. However, you don"t have that chance anymore. Even if you were to find a genius disciple, they would only be an additional genius servant for me! Don"t forget, you"ve lost to me."
