Chapter 543: Five hundred and forty-two, Fourth-level Alchemist Master
Seeing Song Yan Ning following Liu Qingran into the great hall, Fang Yanran’s lips curled into a smirk of triumph. "Master! Song Yan Ning has been brought here." Liu Qingran stepped forward to report.
Lin Cai nodded, her gaze sweeping over to Song Yan Ning.
Song Yan Ning took a step forward and bowed to Lin Cai, "Greetings, Hall Master Lin!"
"I’ve heard from Yanran that you stole her elixir and shattered her Glazed Mirror," Lin Cai evaluated Song Yan Ning. Song Yan Ning had a unique aura about her, which surprisingly prevented Lin Cai from feeling any aversion.
The story Yanran told earlier was full of holes. It was possible that Song Yan Ning could have stolen the elixir, but as for the Glazed Mirror, if Yanran didn’t take it out, Song Yan Ning wouldn’t have been able to touch it, let alone smash it.
Thus, it could only be that Yanran had made a move against Song Yan Ning, which then gave Song Yan Ning the opportunity to come into contact with the Glazed Mirror. For a newbie Outer Disciple to dodge Yanran’s attacks and still smash her Glazed Mirror showed that she was no ordinary person.
"I did not," said Song Yan Ning, her voice calm as she denied the accusation.
"Master, look at her, she’s still denying it. My Glazed Mirror was shattered by her. Also, I explicitly had Alchemist Xun prepare six Gathering Spirit Pills, but I only received three. Only she has touched the elixir; if not her, then who?"
Lin Cai glanced at Fang Yanran impassively.
Fang Yanran shuddered with fright.
"Do you have any evidence to prove you did not take the elixir?" Lin Cai asked Song Yan Ning.
