My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1191: Mutual Exploitation

Silence!

Suddenly, everything around became eerily quiet.

Moments later, bursts of noisy voices erupted.

"Isn't this too absurd?"

"After coming all the way to Penglai Island with great hardship, we failed even before the contest began?"

"Deacon Ren, please reconsider, we've never had such a precedent!"

"Deacon Ren, please take back your decision."

The people from the other three Pill Sects were wailing and utterly unconvinced.

Sect Leader Ye suddenly felt as if he was hit by a huge pie.

Was this too sci-fi?

Without even starting the contest, Ye Guichen just took out two Great Returning Pills and won?

Ren Wobai, however, paid no attention to others: "What, do you doubt my words?"

The voice suddenly turned cold: "Well, I'd like to ask, is there anyone present who can refine a fourth-grade pill?"

"This..."

The people from the three Pill Sects lowered their heads upon hearing this.

Ren Wobai proudly said, "What, not speaking now?"

Lu Dayou from the South Sea Pill Sect bravely said, "Deacon Ren, this Great Returning Pill has no recorded history or rank division. You say it's fourth-grade, but isn't that a bit too whimsical?"

"Presumptuous!" Ren Wobai glared fiercely at Lu Dayou: "South Sea Pill Sect, is it? Daring to question my words, well, in that case, you're disqualified from the next three contests! If you dare resist, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

Lu Dayou's face turned ashen.

Too ruthless.

"Deacon Ren, no, please! Don't! If our contest qualification is canceled, the Sect Leader will kill me when I return!" Lu Dayou directly knelt down and begged bitterly.

But Ren Wobai ignored him completely, waving his hand: "Ye Sheng, come with me."

Then, he looked coldly at those people as if they were insignificant.

Everything seemed like a farce.

But no one dared to make a sound anymore.

The Pill Sect within the hidden sect was not something they could provoke.

Even a single disciple might surpass their Sect Leader.

Though Ren Wobai was a steward, he was certainly no lower than a fifth-grade Pill Master.

In the eyes of the four Pill Sects, this was an unimaginable existence.

"Master, do we just make this trip for nothing?" The only disciple Wenren Muyue frowned, asking his master Sun Changfeng.

As the leader from the Kunlun Pill Sect for this journey, they had traveled from Kunlun Mountain to East Sea Penglai, crossing mountains and waters and encountering many dangers.

This year they just wanted to shine.

But there was no chance to showcase their abilities at all.

Sun Changfeng felt choked with frustration, sighing: "That kid Ye Sheng is really cunning. This Great Returning Pill, being a newly researched pill, and having the power to make one's appearance revert by over ten years, is immensely attractive to cultivators."

"Naturally, Ren Wobai wants to obtain the formula for this Great Returning Pill. If he gets it, his position within the Pill Sect will surely be greatly enhanced."

Wenren Muyue was a bit puzzled: "Master, what do you mean by this?"

"Haha, what else could I mean?" Sun Changfeng smiled bitterly: "From what I know, there are many Qi Refiners within the hidden sect, and even those surpassing Qi Refiners exist. Their life can span several hundred years. To ordinary people, that's absolutely long years."

"Precisely because of this, no one wishes to deal with things with an aging appearance during such long years, especially female cultivators, who are more eager to preserve their youth forever."

"Having this Great Returning Pill will definitely drive cultivators crazy, elevating the Pill Sect status to a new level, the value of which far surpasses an outstanding disciple."

Wenren Muyue suddenly realized, stomping his foot in anger: "This Ye Sheng is simply too wicked. He's exploiting the situation entirely!"

Sun Changfeng shook his head, helpless: "Muyue, although we say this, could you create a completely new pill?"

Wenren Muyue remained silent, finally shaking his head, feeling inferior: "Master, I, I can't do it."

"Yes, you can't, but Ye Sheng did. Perhaps, even if we continued, we would only face defeat. No wonder Sect Leader Ye is so fearless this year, having recruited such an outstanding disciple."

"Haha, Ren Wobai ignored public anger to let Ye Sheng win, giving Ye Sheng immense face. This matter is settled, with no room for turnaround."

Many understood after hearing Sun Changfeng's words, each shaking their heads but feeling helpless.

Sect Leader Ye's mouth was almost split to the back of his neck: "Haha, everyone, Deacon Ren is the judge this time, his words represent the hidden sect Pill Sect. Since he has announced our Penglai Pill Sect's victory, everyone should stop dwelling on it. Let's go, our Penglai Pill Sect will certainly host well to ensure everyone has a good time. By the way, let's discuss the offerings for the next three years."

"Yes, yes, yes, the offering needs careful planning, and once Deacon Ren returns to the hidden sect, it must be reported to the hidden sect Pill Sect," Mo Changsheng also laughed.

Sha Yuanshan's face twitched, feeling fortunate yet experiencing a sense of powerless defeat.

Originally forced to blow up several pill furnaces and kill some geniuses during the contest.

But now, even the contest was canceled, and the plan was certainly thwarted.

Not letting Iaido Jing Shang's plan succeed, Sha Yuanshan felt relieved, but seeing Ye Guichen so lightly gain an entry to the hidden sect Pill Sect, his heart felt choked.

Why? 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

This kid flies higher and higher, and in the future, wouldn't his chance for revenge be even less?

The smile squeezed on Sha Yuanshan's face was uglier than crying, but he had to appear delighted.

No choice, Penglai Pill Sect won this time.

Though the victory was somewhat unbelievable.

But ultimately, it was a victory.

This was a great joy!

...

"Ye Sheng, you're a genius!"

Upon reaching his room, Ren Wobai sat down and looked at Ye Guichen approvingly.

Ye Guichen remained extremely humble, even showing the excitement and surprise expected of a disciple: "Deacon Ren, no matter how talented I am, it's due to your inspiration. The formula for the Great Returning Pill is long prepared; please accept it."

As he spoke, Ye Guichen handed a pill formula detailing the Great Returning Pill's refinement method to Ren Wobai.

Ren Wobai was taken aback, then gently nodded again.

So understanding.

This kid is simply like a worm in my belly.

Originally thought it would take some persuasion to obtain this formula.

But now it's effortlessly gained.

"Ye Sheng, whatever you want, feel free to ask. As long as I can do it, after entering the hidden sect, I am your backing!" Ren Wobai had already promised Ye Guichen.

Drawing a talented alchemist like Ye Guichen to his side, by the time they enter the Pill Sect, he'd be his proud disciple.

All of Ye Guichen's future achievements would naturally relate to Ren Wobai.
