The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 951 - Chapter 951 951

Chapter 951: 951 Chapter 951: 951 Cauldron Heaven Pill City is one of the Pill Alliance’s several major cities, and it’s even larger than Pill Flame City, where Fang Lin had visited before.

Every year, the Master Conference is held within Cauldron Heaven Pill City, where idle Masters of Pill from all over the Pill Alliance gather to exchange ideas and discuss.

After receiving the news, Fang Lin bid farewell to Elder Tiankui and Ye Mengxian, and headed to Cauldron Heaven Pill City alone.

Cauldron Heaven Pill City was not far away–Fang Lin traveled by Flying Boat, and after half a day, he saw a majestic city on a vast plain.

It was a truly magnificent city that covered a wide expanse, even from the sky above, it was staggering to behold.

Like an ancient, fierce beast lying in wait on the plain, it exuded an air of majesty and dominance.

The Flying Boat could not enter Cauldron Heaven Pill City, so it landed outside the city, and Fang Lin proceeded on foot into the city.

However, because the Master Conference was about to be held within the city, entry was forbidden to the common populace, and only the Masters of Pill who were participating in the conference could enter the city without hindrance.

Outside the towering city gates, two ancient Pill Furnaces stood on either side–imposing and extraordinary–seeming to suppress the fortunes of the place.

Several young people wearing the robes of Pill Refiners stood outside the city gates, in charge of receiving the various Masters of Pill who came to attend the Master Conference.

There was a touch of arrogance on the faces of these young people, as being a Pill Refiner from Cauldron Heaven Pill City granted them a certain sense of superiority.

Dressed in grandmaster’s robes, Fang Lin approached the city gates with a calm demeanor, about to step inside.

Yet unexpectedly, a few of the youths barred his way.

“Why do you stop me?” Fang Lin’s brows furrowed slightly, asking with a hint of confusion.

The leading youth looked Fang Lin up and down, and said with a somewhat unfriendly tone, “Who are you? Don’t you know that the Master Conference is taking place and that ordinary people are not allowed to enter? Leave quickly, and do not create trouble here!”

Fang Lin couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this– to think he had been mistaken for a common person was quite amusing.

“I am here to attend the Master Conference,” Fang Lin said. His tone remained even, without a trace of anger.

The youths upon hearing this, all displayed contempt. The leading youth waved his hands dismissively, “Get lost, don’t embarrass yourself here, and don’t consider what your status is.”

Fang Lin smiled, but the smile was somewhat cold. He was about to speak when he saw the youths’ expressions suddenly change, as they turned their attention behind him.

Turning his head, Fang Lin saw two elders walking side by side, one clad in blue robes and the other in purple. Both appeared dignified and elegant, with an air of hermits from the outer world.

“We welcome Master Song, Master Mu!” The leading youth was the first to clasp his fist and bow, while the others also followed suit, their attitude extremely respectful.

The two elders nodded slightly, and the elder in blue robes even waved his hand, taking out some Pills.

“You youngsters have been standing guard here with much diligence. Take these,” said the elder in blue robes, his tone very casual.

The leading youth received the Pills given as a reward, his face showing delight.

“Thank you, Grandmasters,” the leading youth said, as the group approached to welcome the two elders.

“Hmm? Why are you still here? Get lost quickly, and don’t block the way of the two Grandmasters.” The young leader saw Fang Lin still standing there and immediately became angry, scolding him sharply.

Fang Lin’s expression was indifferent, “Are you sure you want me to get lost?”

The leading youth impatiently said, “Are you blind or something? Can’t you see the two Grandmasters here? I don’t want to waste words with you, roll away now, or I will not be polite to you!”

Those two elders hadn’t paid attention to Fang Lin at first, but when they saw the badge of the Pill Refiner on Fang Lin’s chest, they were suddenly stunned, then took a closer look at Fang Lin’s face.

This look was significant; the two were shocked.

“May I ask if you are Master Fang, Fang Lin?” inquired the elder in the blue robe tentatively.

Upon hearing this, the group of youths were all stunned. What’s with Master Song? Why was he calling this youngster a master?

But soon, they all realized what was happening, their faces changing drastically, especially the leading youth who immediately broke out in cold sweat.

Fang Lin cracked a smile, “Finally, someone recognizes me. But since someone wants me to roll away, then I shall do just that. It seems I’m not qualified to attend this so-called Master Conference.”

With that, Fang Lin turned to leave.

The two old men hurried forward, only to hear Master Song say, “Indeed, it is Master Fang. These youngsters are blind and have failed to recognize Master Fang. Please don’t take offense at their ignorance, Master Fang.”

“You lot, are you blind? Can’t even recognize Master Fang?” Master Mu scolded the several youths angrily.

At this point, the youths were utterly dumbfounded. Who would have thought that this seemingly young man was actually a Master of Pill?

“Fang Lin? Can it really be him!” a youth exclaimed, his face showing an expression of sheer amazement.

The great name of Fang Lin had long been spread throughout the Pill Alliance; anyone who wasn’t utterly out of touch had heard of Fang Lin.

Naturally, these youths had heard of Fang Lin but had never seen his visage, and had subconsciously assumed Fang Lin to be some low-ranking Pill Refiner trying to infiltrate Cauldron Heaven Pill City.

But they had never imagined that this person they took for a low-ranking Pill Refiner was actually the youngest Master of Alchemy Tao in the Pill Alliance.

Now, the youths panicked, especially the leading one who was just a Three Cauldrons Pill Refiner – he had offended the Pill Alliance’s most sought-after Master of Pill. Wasn’t this just asking for trouble?

Considering that he had actually told Fang Lin to get lost not long ago, the leading youth couldn’t help trembling, cursing his luck silently as his face portrayed the utmost distress and bitterness.

“Master Fang, this junior is blind and failed to recognize you. It was truly disrespectful. Please grant me your mercy and forgive me for this offense,” the leading youth rushed to salute Fang Lin with clasped hands, bowing his head deeply, not daring to meet Fang Lin’s gaze.

The other youths also stepped forward one by one, apologizing to Fang Lin, their hearts filled with fear and trepidation.

Master Song and Master Mu remained silent, for if it had been them, being so disrespected and offended by several Three Cauldrons Pill Refiners, they would certainly have become angry, and even slapping those people right then and there would have been a normal reaction.

After looking at the several youths, Fang Lin said, “You offend me, and you think just a few light words will suffice? Where then is the dignity of a Master of Pill?”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts sank. Fang Lin’s meaning was clear–he was not going to let them off easily.

“Master Fang, this junior truly realizes his mistake!” The leading youth bit his teeth and actually knelt down in front of Fang Lin.
