Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Practice What You Preach

"Who are you calling a watchdog? Kneel down and apologize!" Two guards were enraged, a declined prince from the Sword King Mansion, they didn’t take him seriously at all.

As the two spoke, one on the left and the other on the right, they cornered Chu Feng in the middle.

"You better not touch me, or else, prepare to pack up your things and scram!" In his hand, Chu Feng secretly held a Flame Burst Pill, ready for the moment these two dared to make a move.

He wouldn’t mind sending them to their deaths.

The Alchemy Venerate is the Alchemy Venerate, even after rebirth and cultivation reset, he is not easily bullied.

Both guards possessed the cultivation of eighth and ninth level Swordsmen respectively. Their cultivation was significantly higher than Chu Feng’s by six minor realms.

Chu Feng could kill them by using the Abnormal Fire. However, he preferred not to expose this trump card readily.

He would rather use up a Flame Burst Pill than resort to using the Abnormal Fire.

"Haha! Telling us to pack up and scram? Kid, who do you think you are?"

"Are you the president of the Pharmacist Guild, or some noble Pill Master?"

You are nothing but a useless prince of the Sword King Mansion. Even your senior brother has fallen to guarding the city gates, what right do you have to be arrogant here?"

The two guards laughed loudly as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world, their eyes looking at Chu Feng were filled with extreme contempt.

Just as the two guards were about to make their move, Niu Baotian arrived just in time, saving their lives.

"Stop!" Niu Baotian’s commanding voice rang out.

On his way back, he was contemplating whether to personally visit the Sword King Mansion. After all, it concerned his own life, and so-called face was worthless.

Unexpectedly, he found Chu Feng at the Medicine Guild’s Hall.

This delighted Niu Baotian greatly.

But these two insufferable guards almost drove Chu Feng away, which extremely angered Niu Baotian.

"Master Alchemist Niu, greetings!"

The two guards, seeing Alchemy Master Niu, forgot about dealing with Chu Feng and immediately stepped forward to give a respectful salute.

Slap! Slap!

Without a word, Niu Baotian raised his hand and slapped both guards across the face.

"Good for nothing! You two scoundrels dared to be disrespectful to Alchemist Chu, are you seeking death?" Niu Baotian struck very hard, causing the guards’ mouths to bleed, with one even losing a tooth.

But they dared not resist at all.

They looked at each other in utter terror, both filled with deep confusion. Alchemy Master Niu was usually a very proud and aloof person, why was he suddenly paying such attention to this useless prince of the Sword King Mansion?

"Alchemist Chu... You weren’t frightened, were you?" Niu Baotian’s attitude was extremely respectful, almost as if a grandson seeing his grandfather.

This behavior shocked the two guards who had been flaunting their prowess before Chu Feng just a moment ago.

Their hearts sank, "Oh no, this time we’ve probably caused a huge disaster." They could never have imagined, how in the blink of an eye, a useless prince from the Sword King Mansion turned into someone whom even Alchemist Niu had to fawn over and seek favor from.

"I wasn’t frightened, just annoyed that these two always look down on people, stopping me from entering, they truly needed to be dealt with!" Chu Feng discretely tucked away the Flame Burst Pill.

The two guards still had no clue that they had just taken a turn at the Ghost Gate Pass.

"You two, pack up your things and scram! Starting tomorrow, don’t come here to work anymore!" Niu Baotian, trying his best to please Chu Feng, immediately and unapologetically fired the two guards.

With his status, firing two gatekeeping guards was just a matter of a few words.

Thump!

The two guards, hearing that they were to be dismissed, were so scared that they immediately knelt on the ground.

With their eighth and ninth level cultivation as swordsmen, it would be extremely difficult to find such a good job again.

Being guards at the Medicine Guild’s Hall not only carried prestige but also provided a significant income. Initially, in order to get in, both spent a considerable amount of silver coins and tapped various connections to be successfully recruited.

"Alchemy Master Niu, please give us another chance! We will never dare to do it again..." The two guards kowtowed like pounding garlic, their faces grief-stricken, continuously pleading for mercy.

"Hmph, begging me is useless! It’s up to Alchemist Chu!" Niu Baotian snorted coldly, completely unmoved.

Being the head of teaching at the Alchemy Academy, yet addressing a student as a Pill Master—if Liu Ping and the others found out, they would probably go mad with envy.

Only then did the two guards truly recognize the severity of Chu Feng.

Not long ago, when Chu Feng told them to pack up and get lost, they thought it was a joke. Chu Feng couldn’t possibly have that power.

Who knew that in the blink of an eye, Chu Feng proved to them whether he had that power or not.

"Alchemist Chu, please forgive us this time! It’s our fault for not recognizing your true value and giving you trouble..." The two guards cried their eyes out, continuously kowtowing and admitting their fault in front of Chu Feng.

They really needed this job too much.

"Now you know you were wrong? What were you doing earlier!"

"It’s not that I won’t forgive you, but you don’t deserve to be guards here."

Chu Feng was completely unmoved. If apologies could fix wrongdoings, then anyone would act recklessly without any concern.

"Alchemy Master Niu, let’s go inside! I need to talk to you about something!" Without giving those two another glance, Chu Feng took the lead and walked into the Medicine Hall. Niu Baotian immediately followed respectfully.

"Alchemist Chu, whatever you need, just command me! You are my life-saver, the prescription you gave me last time really worked wonders!"

"I feel much better now. Before, just the smell of greasiness would churn my stomach and make me lose my appetite. After taking the medicine you prescribed, everything tastes delicious and I sleep soundly!"

Niu Baotian was quite smart, directly showing his loyalty to Chu Feng.

"Hmph, I told you, that prescription can only alleviate your symptoms, not cure you completely!"

"Purple Mandala Poison isn’t so easy to cure. It must be done step by step! But rest assured, as long as you serve me well, not only will I detoxify you, but I’ll also give you some unexpected surprises!"

Chu Feng’s face was indifferent, and upon entering Niu Baotian’s Alchemy Room, he took the master seat without any hesitation.

This was also an intentional test to see Niu Baotian’s reaction.

Niu Baotian dared not show any dissatisfaction, and his flattering smile never faded.

"Here are two First-grade Talisman Pills. I can’t sell them publicly; you’ll do it on my behalf and sell them!" As he spoke, Chu Feng took out two Flame Burst Pills from his sleeve.

"Talismanic Elixir!"

Niu Baotian’s body shivered slightly. Although he was a Second Grade Alchemist, Talismanic Elixirs belonged to Advanced Level Special Elixirs.

Even he could not concoct them, yet Chu Feng casually took out two.

Alchemy Symbols are not so easy to comprehend.

"Is this, this a Flame Burst Pill?" Although Niu Baotian could not concoct them, his eyes were keen. Upon a glance, his face grew even more astonished.

The destructive power of Flame Burst Pills was immense, and their concocting difficulty was unimaginable. They were far harder to produce than ordinary Talismanic Elixirs.

He glanced at Chu Feng with a mix of surprise and suspicion, secretly guessing the origin of these two Talismanic Elixirs.
