Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

"Chu Feng, do you know what elixir I, the Alchemy Venerate, have refined? It's called the Heart Language Pill." Wen Danzun said loudly with a smile. The provocation was obvious to anyone listening.

This was clearly intended to disgrace Chu Feng, directly challenging him to prove who is superior.

Everyone watching the spectacle stretched their necks, eagerly anticipating the final outcome.

Li Shishi's beautiful eyes revealed a trace of worry; no matter how formidable her master is, Wen Danzun is a prized disciple of Wushou Dan Venerate from Shennong Mountain. Can Chu Feng really win?

The enemy is truly too strong, her heart filled with uncertainty.

Lord Bai remained calm, as it didn't matter to him which side won.

Not even a cup of tea time passed when Wen Danzun and Dean Hong's stomachs began rumbling non-stop. Both clutched their bellies, their faces gradually turning flush, resembling drunkards.

"What's going on? It seems like their antidote doesn't work!"

The spectators whispered among themselves.

"You damned Wen, I've been utterly ruined by you this time!" Dean Hong felt his mind undergoing subtle changes. This sensation was no different from drunkenness.

He was fully aware, yet his brain refused to cooperate.

He felt an overwhelming urge to divulge all his deepest secrets for relief.

If Wen Danzun hadn't been so confident, he would never have consumed the Heart Language Pill refined by Chu Feng. Now it's too late for regrets.

"From your performance, it seems the Heart Language Pill has taken effect. I, Chu, act with clear distinction between right and wrong, never wronging a good person, nor letting a bad person go."

Chu Feng intently observed the subtle changes in the two.

Honestly, while he was confident in his Heart Language Pill, Wen Danzun's impressive demeanor left him uncertain.

Now it seems the worries were unnecessary.

Wen Danzun clearly lacks the ability to break Chu Feng's Heart Language Pill.

"Dean Hong, how many wives do you have? How many secret lovers?" Chu Feng refrained from immediately interrogating about the conspiracy against Longevity Hall, instead probing into more private matters.

"I have just one wife, and no lovers. Do you know why? Because I was caught in the act by my wife years ago, and she was about to ruin me. Since that terrifying experience, whenever I see that tigress, I feel immense fear."

Dean Hong astonishingly disclosed these scandals.

Causing the crowd to exclaim in surprise, followed by laughter.

"Your wife's indeed terribly strong, I sympathize with you! Now, before everyone here, tell us if you participated in the criminal plot against Longevity Hall?" Chu Feng asked once again.

"Yes, of course I did. Why should Longevity Hall shine brighter than my Alchemy Venerate Academy? I simply can't stand Chu Feng's arrogance and sought ways to drag him into the mire. Open confrontation is pointless, so I resorted to underhanded means. I paid silver to hire stooges to cause trouble at Longevity Hall, slandering and spreading rumors as suggested by Director Zhao, which I participated in and consented to."

Dean Hong admitted readily.

The Heart Language Pill indeed proved powerful. Before this, Dean Hong adamantly denied everything.

"Lord Bai, you heard it all, these are the tactics of Alchemy Venerate Academy. If it'd beaten Longevity Hall fair and square, I'd have nothing to say. But using such disgraceful methods to slander and ruin Longevity Hall's reputation demands justice for Longevity Hall."

Chu Feng looked towards Lord Bai, who was in charge.

This individual's status was high enough to represent Divine Baihu Kingdom's stance.

"Rest assured, Alchemist Chu is a benefactor of Divine Baihu Kingdom. Even if the Heavenly Venerate Academy is involved, I will handle this justly and ensure you're satisfied." Lord Bai's tone was stern as he spoke on record.

He stood up and approached Dean Hong, questioning sternly, "Dean Hong, why did Divine Baihu Kingdom's official army intervene in capturing Chu Feng?" Deploy the Divine White Tiger Guards to apprehend someone without any issues.

This itself presents significant problems.

"Haha, are you not smart? Isn't it simple? Money can make the devil turn the mill, General Wei took the academy's bribe, and naturally had to perform well." Dean Hong remained completely flushed, his smile resembling that of a drunk.

General Wei's face instantly turned pale, not expecting Lord Bai to suddenly turn the sword towards him.

Nor expecting Dean Hong's mouth to open wide.

Telling everything.

The private transactions between him and Dean Hong were now exposed; he knew he was finished.

"Seize him!" Lord Bai angrily pointed at General Wei, commanding the Divine White Tiger Guards.

"I shouldn't have taken Dean Hong's bribe, but as the saying goes, help relatives, not reason. I've served the Divine Baihu Kingdom loyally for years; even if there's no merit, there's bitter service. Won't Lord Bai spare some sentiments?"

General Wei was prepared to completely sever ties.

After all, as a Second Tribulation Supreme Sword God, he could fare well elsewhere.

"A thousand-mile dam crumbles at the ant hole. Divine Baihu Kingdom cannot tolerate a termite like you. Take him away!" Lord Bai was adamant, showing no mercy.

Mainly to give Chu Feng justice.

If it were anyone else today, Lord Bai might consider sparing General Wei for being a First-class Divine General, and as the academy was a significant force in the kingdom. Both couldn't be lightly touched.

"Since Lord Bai is heartless, Wei will be merciless. For an outsider, you aim the blade at me, a First-class Divine General; who is worth more, Lord Bai?"

"Farewell. From now on, I have no ties with the Divine Baihu Kingdom."

General Wei furiously unclasped his armor, coldly preparing to leave.

"You receive a lord's salary, perform a lord's duties. You've been favored by the emperor, yet commit such acts. Making grave mistakes, then attempting an unceremonious departure, clearly shows disregard for Divine Baihu Kingdom."

Lord Bai's face showed anger, robes fluttering without wind.

"You have two choices, either submit quietly; considering your contributions to Divine Baihu Kingdom, I will be lenient. If resisting, I will punish severely, possibly robbing you of freedom forever."

Lord Bai coldly looked at General Wei.

"Never!"

General Wei snorted in anger, using sword control attempting escape. He'd already been heavily injured by Chu Feng's Flame Burst Pill.

Now fleeing with injuries, speed was greatly impacted.

Moreover, could he escape with the presence of the formidable Lord Bai?

"Obstinate!"

As Lord Bai finished speaking, his figure flashed, appearing before General Wei.

"Seal!"

His sword moved, rendering General Wei completely immobile.
