He wasn't even eighteen yet, right? How could he have such high achievements? But now even Pill King Liao Xiashan had come, how could he be wrong?
"Let's go and take a look as well!" Many people had excited expressions on their faces as they quickly followed him.
In the teahouse, Ling Tianyu and Xiao Yi had just quieted down when they saw Liao Xiashan and a group of people striding towards them with great fanfare.
"Ai, it seems that I was wrong. I originally thought that there would only be an enemy like the Liu family. I didn't think that Lu Ping would be so persistent." Ling Tianyu lifted his teacup and placed it against his mouth as he muttered to himself.
Sayo smiled and attracted everyone's attention. However, her eyes were bright and clear, and she didn't have any feelings for anyone else.
When Liao Xieshan and Lu Ping were close to him, Ling Tianyu smiled and said, "Brother Lu Ping, it's been a while since we last met, how have you been?"
Even though he knew Liao Xiushan personally, he was Ling Tianyu at this moment, so he had to pretend that he didn't know Liao Xiushan.
"How dare you, a mere tier 5 alchemist, not bow before the Pill King?" Lu Ping's expression turned cold, revealing his duck throat.
Amongst the alchemists, a low-ranked apothecary had to bow to a high-level apothecary. This was an unwritten rule, but for cultivators, it was a completely different story.
It was an honor for others to respect and worship you. If others ignored you, there was nothing you could do about it. The dao of pills was definitely different from others, and there was no relationship between the two.
"Hey, Brother Lu Ping, what's going on? It's only been a year since we've seen each other, so how could we have such a good piece of skin? Your skin is fair and fair, and your voice sounds like that of a eunuch's. "
Ling Tianyu didn't even try to get up to salute, he just teased Lu Ping.
Sayo covered her mouth and chuckled. She was the only one who knew. Lu Ping's little bird had been stepped on. It would be strange if he wasn't a eunuch.
"You …" Lu Ping was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He pointed at Ling Tianyu, not knowing what to say.
"Ling Tianyu, why aren't you paying respects to the Pill King?" Lu Ping was so angry that he could only use this matter to explain himself.
Liao Xiushan lifted his head to look at the sky with a haughty attitude. If not for his identity, Ling Tianyu would have really slapped him again.
"That's right. You're just a mere fifth rank apothecary. Why aren't you paying a visit to senior brother Liao?" A few of the younger brothers from the Dan Sect looked up with their noses to the sky as they roared at Ling Tianyu.
"A Tier 5 pill refiner must pay respects to the Pill King?" Ling Tianyu looked at the crowd and asked in astonishment.
"Nonsense, could it be that you have lived in the Eastern Continent for a long time and don't know the rules of the Central Region?" Lu Ping said proudly. He thought, "This young master won't properly humiliate you this time."
However, when he looked at Sayo, his face immediately sagged. Previously, his goal was to get her, but now, he could only dream about it silently.
"That's right. Low-tier pill refiners must pay their respects to high-level pill refiners!" Wang Fan and the others also nodded.
They didn't know that Liao Xishan was here specifically to target Ling Tianyu, and not only that, his identity as Apothecary Ling Tianyu had also been exposed. As such, they had no other choice.
"Mm, if that's the case, then that's good!" Ling Tianyu nodded his head. Then, he moved the table in front of him, straightened his chair, and openly sat down. He then pointed to the disciples of the Pill Sect and said, "Alright, hurry up and come pay your respects!"
"What?"
Seeing this scene, Lu Ping and the rest were stunned. "Ling Tianyu, how dare you ask me to pay you a visit?"
When the others saw this, they were perplexed over what Ling Tianyu was trying to say.
However, a moment later, they saw Ling Tianyu slowly pull out an apothecary emblem and hang it on his chest.
The glittering moon above was extremely dazzling, but to the disciples of the Pill Sect, it was dazzling.
"I... "Holy sh * t …"
Lu Ping felt like he had swallowed thousands of flies. His words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't spit them out.
After all that commotion, the other party turned out to be a Pill King as well. What was going on? Wasn't he a Tier 5 pill refiner? When would he become a Pill King?
Lu Ping was puzzled. He did not know that after he was ruthlessly humiliated by Ling Tianyu, he went to the Alchemist Association and became a Tier 6 Pill King.
Upon seeing this scene, Liao Xiushan was no longer able to lift his head up. This was because the other party was only eighteen years old, yet had already succeeded in becoming the Pill Emperor.
"Hahaha, so Brother Ling is also a Pill King." At this time, Wang Fan started to laugh out loud, and all the warriors kneeled down and began to kowtow.
"We pay our respects to the Pill King!"
Although it felt good to be worshipped by others, it was not what Ling Tianyu needed. Today, he was just unaccustomed to the disciples coming to seek revenge, and wanted to frustrate their spirit.
"All of you, get up!" Ling Tianyu waved his hand, then looked at Lu Ping and said: "Lu Ping, as a Tier 5 pill refiner, shouldn't you greet the Pill King?"
This voice was very loud in Lu Ping's heart. At this moment, Lu Ping couldn't wait to dig a hole and hide in it for the rest of his life.
"Motherf * cker, ever since I went to the East Continent, I've had bad luck in my entire life. I've been humiliated thrice, and I've even become a cripple!" Lu Ping thought to himself.
Ling Tian Yu looked at Lu Ping's struggling expression and laughed in his heart: "You want to fight with me? It would be great if you didn't take your life."
"Hurry up and kneel down and kowtow?" A gleam flashed across Ling Tianyu's eyes and a fearsome will descended.
"Pa …"
Lu Ping was so scared that he directly kneeled down without saying anything.
"Hiss …"
When the crowd saw this, they sucked in a breath of cold air. The aura Ling Tianyu exuded earlier had allowed them to sense the aura of a king.
Lu Ping knelt on the ground, shivering. The other disciples all revealed struggling looks on their faces. As disciples of the Pill Sect, they usually looked down with their hands in their eyes, so how could they kowtow to others?
"What is it? You want to violate the rules of Central State? There are countless pairs of eyes watching this place. " Ling Tianyu turned to look at the disciples of the Alchemy Sect.
"Cough cough, this, brother Ling, you are the Pill King, and I am also the Pill King. Moreover, based on age, I have already been promoted to the Pill King for many years, so, for my sake, let's forget about this matter."
At this point, Liao Xiashan hurriedly stood forward. After all, this was detrimental to the reputation of the Pill Sect. He couldn't fight against Ling Tianyu head on.
"Are you Liao Xi Shan?" Ling Tian Yu looked at him indifferently and said, "Your name is quite well-known. I had heard of you back in the Southern Continent. You are the strongest among the Central Region's younger generation."
Hearing this, Liao Xiushan lightened up a little. It seemed that his reputation had spread far and wide, and Ling Tianyu would probably give him some face.
However, when Liao Xiushan heard the following words, he was immediately infuriated.
"But? You are already over thirty years old and calling me brother is something I cannot accept. Moreover, your face is even more valuable than the rules of the Central Region. "
Ling Tianyu said disdainfully.
"You …" Liao Xiashan's face darkened as he said, "Brother Ling, there is no need to look any further. This is the Central Region, and we are disciples of the Pill Sect. I believe you know about the status of the Pill Sect."
"So what if you're a pill sect? I didn't ask your pill sect to act arrogantly and it was you who delivered it. You said that you want to follow the rules of the Central Region. What, are you unhappy now?"
Ling Tianyu slowly stood up and walked towards Liao Xiushan.
"I'm telling you, this young master is only giving you face today and not asking you to pay his respects. I didn't expect you to be so tactless. You've only become a Pill King in your thirties, do you really think you're so impressive?"
Ling Tianyu's aura exploded as each sentence stabbed at Liao Xiashan's heart.
