“What’s going on? Usually, the people from the Martial Sect picking up the pills would have already arrived by now, what happened today?” The elders standing at the entrance of the Pill Pavilion were puzzled.
The sun was already high in the sky, but not a single disciple of Martial Sect was seen in front of the grand entrance of the Pill Pavilion. It was truly strange.
Could it be that those Martial Sect disciples no longer want Pills?
“Send someone over to see what the Martial Sect is up to. If no one comes by midday, they needn’t bother.” The man in white robes spoke angrily.
A Pill Pavilion disciple was dispatched right away to investigate the situation. Not long after, the disciple returned.
However, when the Pill Pavilion disciple explained what he had learned, all the elders of the Pill Pavilion were dumbfounded and stood there speechless for a long time.
It turned out that the Martial Sect members who were supposed to come and receive the pills were not late, they had completely skipped the Pill Pavilion and directly headed over to Fang Lin.
Moreover, Fang Lin was also distributing pills, and it was said that the quality of his pills was much better, and the quantity larger than the Pill Pavilion’s.
In just one morning, Fang Lin’s place was teeming with people. The Martial
Sect disciples who were in charge of collecting the pills lined up outside Fang Lin’s courtyard. The scene was bustling with excitement, in stark contrast with the desolation of the Pill Pavilion.
The Martial Sect disciples who got the pills all wore smiles of joy on their faces, and they looked as if they were celebrating the New Year. You don’t need to mention how delighted they were.
The white-robed elder was so livid that his face contorted. Suddenly, he let out an expletive, his face twisted in rage and ugliness.
The other elders of the Pill Pavilion remained silent, almost all of them feeling a great rage in their hearts.
Fang Lin’s actions were akin to slapping the Pill Pavilion in the face and stealing their business.
How could the elders of the Pill Pavilion stand for this?
“Fang Lin has gone too far. He completely flouts the rules. I suggest we detain him immediately and confiscate all the pills he has concocted.” A Pill Pavilion elder indignantly proposed.
His words garnered unanimous agreement. They were all part of the interest group of the Pill Pavilion, and were Gu Daofeng’s trusted aides, naturally considering their own interests.
The white-robed elder, after calming down, ordered, “Let’s go, bring people immediately and arrest Fang Lin.”
Upon hearing this, two Pill Pavilion elders left the Pill Pavilion with a formidable air.
Meanwhile, Fang Lin was busy distributing batches of pills to the disciples of Martial Sect, and Qing Jianzi stood by his side, with a slight smile on his face.
“Fang, you’ve literally slapped the Pill Pavilion in the face. They’re probably hopping mad.” Qing Jianzi remarked teasingly.
While distributing the pills, Fang casually responded, “Brother, you’re wrong. I’m merely seeking welfare for you Martial Sect disciples. Why should I worry about what the Pill Pavilion thinks? Besides, if the Pill Pavilion really comes to trouble me, would you just stand by and do nothing?”
Qing Jianzi gave a bitter smile. This Fang really knew how to drag him into it.
But Fang wasn’t wrong. When he agreed to assist Fang in calling the Martial Sect disciples to come and get the pills, he had already stepped into the matter, and naturally had to stand by Fang’s side.
Moreover, Qing Jianzi himself was extremely dissatisfied with the Pill Pavilion. Be it for the Pill Sect or the Martial Sect, the existence of the Pill Pavilion was like a leech.
Just then, the people from the Pill Pavilion arrived. However, they were completely barred from entry.
“How dare you, Fang Lin! You’ve violated the rules and disrespected the laws. Stop distributing the pills immediately and come with us!” Two elders from the Pill Pavilion screamed.
Their cries, however, provoked the ire of the Martial Sect disciples lined up outside.
“Shut up! Get out of the way!”
“To hell with your bloody Pill Pavilion!”
“You want to lay a hand on Fang? Ask if we agree!”
A large group of Martial Sect disciples immediately crowded around, completely encircling the Pill Pavilion individuals. Their eyes flared with a ferocity as if they wanted to tear them apart.
The Pill Pavilion folk were scared stiff, including the two elders whose faces now turned unsightly. They dared not utter another word that might provoke the Martial Sect disciples.
These weren’t disciples from their Pill Sect, and they had an overwhelming advantage in numbers. If thev were to provoke these Martial Sect disciples—who had too much free time on their hands—to anger, the latter would not hesitate to give them a good beating. No severe punishment would befall them apart from probably being lectured later on.
“Cough, cough. Fang Lin distributing pills without permission means no guarantee of their quality. If anything goes wrong after consumption, our Pill Pavilion will not be responsible.” The two elders could only make such a statement.
The Martial Sect disciples just laughed, all sporting mocking expressions.
“The people from the Pill Pavilion really crack me up. Fang’s pills are incomparably better than those from your Pill Pavilion, and yet you have the audacity to bluster about it.”
“Speaking of these Nurturing Breath Pills, each one is of the finest quality. What has your Pill Pavilion been giving us? Not many of medium quality, let alone substituting the inferior ones for the good.”
“I’m really curious. What the hell is in the minds of you guys from Pill Pavilion?
Have you lost your conscience?”
“Heh, even dogs wouldn’t eat their conscience, it’s too black and stinky.”
The mockery and the incessant reprimands left the Pill Pavilion people blushing and their ears burning. The disciples who came with the two elders from the Pill Pavilion lowered their heads in shame, not daring to meet the gazes of the crowd. They, themselves, were feeling that the Pill Pavilion had acted with too little integrity.
The two Pill Pavilion elders also didn’t expect such a huge grudge against the Pill Pavilion from these Martial Sect disciples. They also harbored an inward annoyance, feeling that all this was due to Fang Lin.
“Oh dear, what on earth is happening here?” Just then, Fang Lin appeared, looking utterly clueless, from the courtyard. He was met with the angry stares of the Pill Pavilion staffers.
“Fang Lin, stop distributing medicine immediately, do you realize what you’re doing?” A Pill Pavilion elder yelled at once.
“Screw you!” Suddenly there was an angry curse, followed by someone who took the first move. Then, a group of Martial Sect disciples pressed the Pill Pavilion group to the ground and began to batter them violently.
The scene was extremely brutal; even the two elders from the Pill Pavilion had no ability to fight back.
The Martial Sect disciple crowd was simply too large. Besides, many among them were the elite of Martial Sect. When this many people acted at once, even the elders couldn’t withstand it.
No one attempted to stop the onslaught, not even Qing Jianzi, who stood by the side with a detached expression and watched the excitement.
In fact, Qing Jianzi himself wanted to lay a hand on those from the Pill Pavilion, but his moves were always too heavy. If something were to happen to them, it would not be good.
As Fang shook his head and put on a show, he said, “They’re all youngsters, why be so impulsive? It’s wrong to hit people.”
Saying that, Fang Lin turned and went back inside the courtyard, listening to the pain-filled screams of the Pill Pavilion people. He had to hold back hard to stop himself from breaking into laughter..
