Chapter 188 - 44: Cleansing
A few Pill Masters gathered together, discussing the dangers of last night.
Lin Yuan walked into the main hall and overheard them discussing various things about him.
Some sighed over his incredible luck, while others speculated if he was the illegitimate child of the Third Elder.
Lin Yuan merely smiled and shrugged it off, thinking it was better to spend his time refining two batches of pills than to waste words with these ordinary Pill Masters.
He walked with calm steps, his gaze sweeping over the still chattering Pill Masters.
In an instant, the hall gradually quieted down.
"It’s really this genius Pill Master!"
"The Third Elder’s influence is truly remarkable; the Pei Family actually agreed for this young man to take charge of Dong Qi Hall."
"I was right, wasn’t I? The influence behind this Master Lin far exceeds our estimation; the rumors of him being an illegitimate child are likely true." Many Pill Masters looked at Lin Yuan with suspicion and wonder as he walked freely into the inner hall, to the Hall Master’s exclusive pill refinement room.
Although they disdained Lin Yuan’s backdoor method inwardly, they dared not voice any complaints openly.
Their gossip ceased as the door to the pill room closed, leaving all irrelevant to Lin Yuan.
