Inverse Sword Mad God

Chapter 1021: Frog in a Well



"You weren't here just now, I went for a stroll in Tiger Garden," Lin Xuan replied with a smile.

"You must be tired, take a rest over there."

Murong Qingcheng, like a docile little wife, pulled Lin Xuan to sit at the spot beside her.

This scene shattered the hearts of countless young talents, who lamented loudly.

Suddenly, everyone's gaze towards Lin Xuan was filled with deep hostility.

Meanwhile, Shen Yulong, Liu Lie, and the others' eyes became even colder, carrying a trace of killing intent.

Such outstanding Heavenly Prides like them couldn't win over Murong Qingcheng, yet what made an ordinary disciple of the Immortal Martial Academy worthy of the Goddess's favor.

They were extremely dissatisfied.

Over at Red Moon City, every one of them had an odd expression. Especially Murong Qingshu, whose mouth was twitching slightly at this moment.

Though he knew Lin Xuan was brought by Murong Qingcheng, he didn't expect their relationship to be so good.

Amongst the envious and jealous stares of the crowd, Lin Xuan was calmly sitting with Murong Qingcheng, chatting and laughing quietly.

Next, everyone took out their prepared gifts and presented them one after another.

At this point, many people looked at Lin Xuan with a provocative gaze.

They wanted to see what kind of gift Lin Xuan would give.

Since the conflict between Lin Xuan and Murong Qian previously was due to a gift, they were particularly curious about what Lin Xuan would bring out.

Among them, particularly the disciples of the Liu Family, Shen Family, and Red Moon City wore cold smiles as they looked at Lin Xuan.

They wanted to see what good stuff this arrogant young man could offer.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Xuan flipped his palm and took out a black box.

It was a very ordinary box, quite plain, ancient without adornment, extraordinarily ordinary.

No exquisite carvings, no dazzling light, just the plainest wooden box.

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded, unable to believe Lin Xuan would bring out something like this.

"Damn, what is that thing? Isn't it just an ordinary box?"

"Looking at his calm and composed appearance, could there be a treasure inside the box?"

"What a joke, would you place a treasure in such a box?" someone sneered.

"And Liu Family's disciple ridiculed further, 'Boy, even if you're poor, you shouldn't bring such a thing. Are you here to make a mess?'

Seeing Murong Qingcheng sitting beside Lin Xuan, everyone's hearts were full of envy and jealousy, so they seized this opportunity to mock Lin Xuan relentlessly.

"What are you, anyway? Just an insignificant disciple of the Immortal Martial Academy, yet capable of winning the favor of the Heavenly Pride Goddess — you must have used some despicable methods. Time to expose your ugly side."

This thought was on the minds of all the young Martial Artists.

Then, a disciple of the Shen Family spoke up, "Seeing Brother Lin's calm demeanor, there must be something good in the box. Let's open it and have a look."

"Nothing much, just an elixir pill I refined myself," Lin Xuan said indifferently.

"What? A self-refined elixir pill?" At this point, everyone was stunned.

They didn't expect Lin Xuan could refine elixirs.

However, very quickly, everyone showed a look of contemptuous disdain. In their view, Lin Xuan was so young that even if he could refine elixirs, the skill level wouldn't be high — at most a fifth-grade Alchemist.

What can a fifth-grade Alchemist refine? At most fifth-grade elixirs, perhaps top-grade fifth-grade elixirs.

Would such elixirs even be worthy of presenting as a gift?

Absolutely laughable!

Thinking of this, many Martial Artists sneered coldly. They thought Lin Xuan was childish, using his self-refined elixir as a gift.

"Just knew this kid had nothing good, originally thought it'd be some ordinary gift, but didn't expect it would be such an oddball."

"Hahaha, it's killing me with laughter."

"Hmph, atrocious! Clearly could have half Earth-grade Treasure to gift but ends up giving this trash elixir — really thinks Red Moon City is easy to fool?"

The disciples of Red Moon City were furious individually, looked at the crowd with ill intention.

Lin Xuan, however, just awkwardly rubbed his nose, wondering why this group was mocking — did he say wrong? It was indeed his own refinement.

"Hahaha, Brother Lin, your gift is indeed peculiar." At this time, a Yin Rou-looking youth beside Shen Yulong stood up.

"I didn't expect Brother Lin to be an Alchemist too, but this gift is truly surprising. You must know, even I, as a Sixth-grade Alchemist, wouldn't dare to present my self-refined elixir."

"Brother Lin's courage, really admirable!"

This voice carried a hint of yin-yang sarcasm.

"Oh, are you a Sixth-grade Alchemist?"

This time it was Lin Xuan's turn to be surprised, he couldn't imagine this youth being an Alchemist, and at a Sixth-grade level at that.

Reaching Sixth-grade Alchemist at that age, the talent is undoubtedly formidable, worthy of the King Family producing such alchemy talent.

However, the other's attitude still displeased him, and Lin Xuan realized why, upon bringing out the wooden box, everyone laughed.

In these people's view, the wooden box surely didn't contain good elixir pills, hence their reactions.

Nonetheless, Lin Xuan smirked coldly at them, "A bunch of frogs in the well, lacking real understanding."

They are incapable of reaching high-level elixirs, assuming others can't either?

Indeed, pathetic people.

Lin Xuan looked at the Yin Rou youth, smiling and inquired, "Didn't expect that Brother is a Sixth-grade Alchemist, truly my respects."

"The status of a Sixth-grade Alchemist is not low, Brother's talent is enviable, indeed."

Hearing this, the Yin Rou youth revealed an even more smug smile, practically raising his chin with pride.

The surrounding people were quite surprised; they didn't expect Lin Xuan to say such a thing, while Red Moon City's disciples looked gloomy.

Judging by Lin Xuan's words, his alchemy level surely wouldn't exceed a Sixth-grade Alchemist, otherwise, he wouldn't say those things.

An inferior Alchemist, yet daring to present his own crafted trash elixir as a gift — evidently not considering them at all.

"Damn it, this guy is detestable, looking down on Red Moon City!"

"He's just here to create trouble, I'd suggest throwing him out."

"Hmph, even if Sister Qingcheng supports him, he shouldn't be so arrogant — thinking Red Moon City is defenseless."

A group of Red Moon City disciples were furious.

Murong Qingcheng also cast a curious look; although she knew Lin Xuan's alchemy level wasn't weak, she felt a bit anxious now.

"Relax, no problem." Lin Xuan gave a reassuring look, then smiled playfully.

Seeing this smile, Murong Qingcheng felt relieved, knowing that whenever Lin Xuan bore such a smile, it indicated he was confident in handling the matter.

Moreover, someone was about to face misfortune.
