Chapter 1450: Chapter 1548: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain Chapter 1450: Chapter 1548: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain “Gentlemen, do you still recognize Fang Lin?” His calm words, however, struck like a thunderclap from a clear sky, causing the faces of the Pill Alliance leaders present to undergo drastic changes.

“Fang, Fang Lin! Weren’t you already dead in the Seven Seas?” A Pill Alliance elder spoke with a voice that trembled slightly.

“You are already dead! This is something that the Western Moon King personally confirmed, how could you possibly still be alive?” Another Pill Alliance elder continuously shook his head, finding it unbelievable.

Fang Lin revealed a faint smile, “Then I must disappoint you all, Fang Lin did not die, and is, in fact, very much alive.”

The Pill Alliance leaders looked at one another, all at a loss for words. Fang Lin’s fall in the Seven Seas seven years ago was a fact known throughout the Nine Countries; countless people had sighed over Fang Lin’s demise, and there were those who had considered Fang Lin an enemy, secretly applauding.

There was also a considerable number of people who doubted the news of Fang Lin’s fall, suspecting that Fang Lin might not have died.

But after seven years without a whisper of news about Fang Lin, essentially everyone had come to accept the fact that Fang Lin was no more.

Yet today, Fang Lin appeared before them alive and well, and in such a sudden manner, that it left these Pill Alliance leaders unable to wrap their heads around the concept for a good while.

How could someone who had been confirmed dead still be alive?

“Regardless of whether you are Fang Lin or not, trespassing into the Ancient Pill Court is a grave crime! You must be punished!” A black-robed elder spoke in a dark tone, his eyes filled with hostility and disgust when looking at Fang Lin.

“That’s right, even if you truly are Fang Lin, Fang Lin has long been a traitor to the Pill Alliance; we must capture you and hand you over to the Heaven King to decide your fate!” Another black-robed middle-aged man said.

As for the other leaders, they had complex expressions and did not speak such harsh words to Fang Lin.

In fact, quite a few leaders showed a hint of shame when looking at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was indifferent to these words. He stretched out his hand and pointed at several leaders present. Without exception, those pointed at by Fang Lin were all identified as Poison Pill Masters.

“The seven of you have thrown your weight around in the Pill Alliance for long enough. Killing you would indeed be a cleansing of the Pill Alliance’s afflictions,” said Fang Lin, his eyes emitting a murderous intent.

Upon hearing this, the seven Poison Pill Masters that Fang Lin pointed out felt a sudden surge of terror in their hearts.

“Pretentious frauds, utterly ridiculous!” The black-robed elder was furious. He was also a Poison Pill Master and had been pointed out by Fang Lin. In his rage, he directly launched a palm strike at Fang Lin.

The black-robed elder, being a Poison Pill Master and also a high-ranking member of the Pill Alliance, naturally had a formidable strength, possessing the cultivation of the Spirit Source realm. His palm strike, on the surface, was filled with Spirit Source power, but in reality, it was laced with deadly poison, aiming to take Fang Lin down with a single blow.

Fang Lin curled his lip and, without any great display of astonishing aura, simply kicked out. The black-robed elder let out a miserable cry as he was sent flying, blood gushing from his mouth.

“Besides those seven, I will not lay my hands on anyone else. Everyone step aside, and if anyone interferes, do not blame Fang Lin for disregarding past relations and going on a killing spree here,” Fang Lin swept his gaze over the crowd, his tone carrying a hint of threat and chill.

The rest of the Pill Alliance leaders hesitated for a moment but eventually all stepped back.

“You!” The elder in black robes and his six companions were instantly infuriated. These scoundrels had actually backed away. What was this supposed to mean? Were they prepared to watch the seven of them be killed by Fang Lin?

“Fang Lin, you…” A high-ranking member of the Pill Alliance tried to say something to Fang Lin, but he received a cold glance from him. The official’s heart tightened, knowing he should not say more, and he promptly stepped aside.

“The Western Moon King is at the Pill Appreciation Tower and can rush back here in an instant. You will certainly be dead by then!” the elder in black warned, clutching his chest.

Fang Lin looked at him mockingly, “He’s currently too busy to care about the life and death of trash like you.”

No sooner had he spoken, Fang Lin made his move, immediately appearing in front of the elder in black.

With a splat, Fang Lin plunged his hand straight into the elder’s chest, scooping out his heart and then casually throwing it on the ground before crushing it underfoot.

The other six Poison Pill Masters turned pale at this scene, their hearts filled with unspeakable terror, fearing they might be the next to have their hearts gouged out.

After killing the elder in black, Fang Lin had no intention of stopping. He proceeded to finish off the remaining six Poison Pill Masters one by one, leaving none alive.

All seven died in the same manner, their hearts excavated by Fang Lin, and a thick scent of blood permeated the entire hall, an occurrence never before seen in the history of the Ancient Pill Court.

The Pill Alliance’s high-ranking officials around were also frightened. When they looked at Fang Lin again, there was even more fear in their eyes.

The old Fang Lin, although also well-known and formidable, had never been this brutal, heartlessly taking lives on a whim. His behavior was, to say the least, shocking.

However, there was no sympathy or compassion for the seven slain Poison Pill Masters among the high-ranking members of the Pill Alliance present. They had always looked down on these Poison Pill Masters, despising and detesting them even though they all belonged to the upper echelons.

But since these seven had been handpicked by the Western Moon King to join the top ranks, the others could hardly voice their objections and had to reluctantly accept them.

But now that these seven were dead at the hands of Fang Lin, not only did the high-ranking members present not mind, they actually felt a bit relieved.

“Fang Lin, since you’re still alive, why not return to the Pill Alliance? The Alliance is going through troubled times and could use a talent like you,” a Pill Alliance member tentatively suggested.

Fang Lin glanced at the man and sneered, “You want me to return to the Pill Alliance? Unless the Western Moon is dead and all the Poison Pill Masters are dealt with, I might consider it.”

Upon hearing this, the member who had just suggested Fang Lin’s return to the Pill Alliance immediately shut his mouth. Waiting for the Western Moon King to die before returning to the Pill Alliance? That was simply an unrealistic notion. If the Western Moon King really died, it would be as if the Pill Alliance had lost one of its pillars–a scenario unimaginable.

“I advise you all, the Pill Alliance’s fate has run its course. With the building about to collapse, it would be wise to find a way out sooner rather than later, lest you get buried along with it,” Fang Lin said and then leaped away, leaving the place.

The high-ranking members of the Pill Alliance looked at each other, speechless for a moment. Everything that had just happened felt like a dream, and they still didn’t know if that had truly been Fang Lin.

In a secret chamber within the Ancient Pill Court, a faint sigh resounded, laden with a multitude of complex emotions.

“Ah, everything’s becoming a hassle for me. It’s really tiring, kid. You better come back to life quickly, I’m truly exhausted,” Fang Lin complained bitterly as he flew out of the Ancient Pill Court, immediately changing his demeanor.
