Chapter 337: Chapter 337: I am also a person with status

Han Luoyun furrowed his brows, speaking quite rudely, âPalace Master Gong, you should really think before you speak. Every move Fang Lin made, you saw clearly. You know very well whether or not there was any trickery involved. Becoming this flustered is really beneath you.â
Gong Wuliang wanted to spew blood in anger, he knew all too well he was just stirring up trouble. Panicked and irrational, he couldnât help it. Anyone who had suffered such a blow would lose their senses.
The people of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect looked depressed, their faces full of regret. They had lost to the Purple Mist Sect again, defeated by the same person, even Fu Haixin, who they had especially invited to help them, was no match for Fang Lin. It was the ultimate disgrace.
Fang Lin, a teasing smile on his face, looked at Fu Haixin, âSo, do you now believe my pill formula?â
He asked knowingly; Fu Haixin had already admitted defeat, effectively acknowledging her belief in him.
Seeing Fu Haixin remain silent, Fang Lin grinned again, âSince the result is clear, shouldnât we fulfill our bet now?â
Upon hearing his words, Fu Haixin looked up abruptly, her face full of anger, âEven if it kills me, I will not be relegated to a gatekeeper at the Purple Mist Sect!â
Fang Lin sneered, looking disdainfully at Fu Haixin, âLook at you, going back on your word. You clearly stated earlier that if you lost, you would guard our gate. Now youâre denying your pledge. Itâs disappointing to see a Pill Refiner from Ling Country canât keep her word.â
Fu Haixin was livid, her anger was palpable, her chest rising and falling rapidly. She had never suffered such humiliation since going to Ling Country. If not for her mistake, Fu Haixin really wanted to curse out loud.
âFang Lin, donât go too far!â Gong Wuliang pointed at Fang Lin and roared.
Fang Lin rolled his eyes, âPalace Master Gong, youâre not being fair. You accused me of going too far? Your Ten-thousand Medicine Sect came here to declare war on my Purple Mist Sect, and you think Iâm the one at fault? Even you heard the terms of our bet, you arenât deaf. Since I have won, shouldnât Fu Haixin guard our gate?â
Gong Wuliang was beside himself with rage, wishing he could strike Fang Lin dead. He was speechless against a youngsterâs rebuttal. It was as if he had a fishbone stuck in his throat, making him want to vomit blood.
All the members of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect were extremely angry, clenching their fists, ready to fight to the death.
If Fu Haixin really went to guard the gate of the Purple Mist Sect, it wouldnât just be her bearing the humiliation but also the entire Ten-thousand Medicine Sect and the Ling Country Pill Alliance.
Fang Lin said impatiently: âFu Haixin, just make up your mind. Will you guard the gate or not? If not, Iâll tie you up, hang you from a tree, and display you at the gate.â
When he said this, everyone looked at him obliquely. Was he addicted to tying people up? It was said that Miss Dugu Nian from the Dugu family was tied up on a tree by Fang Lin previously. Now he wanted to do the same to Fu Haixin at the gate. He really had a peculiar taste.
Fu Haixin turned pale. She never thought Fang Lin would hang her at the gate. If he really did that, she might as well die for having lost all her face.
âFang Lin, how dare you! Do you know who I am? If you disrespect me, catastrophe will befall your Purple Mist Sect!â Fu Haixin exclaimed, using her identity as a Pill Refiner from Ling Country, the only thing that might intimidate the Purple Mist Sect enough to keep herself safe.
As for the Ten-thousand Medicine Sectâs Nine Treasure Luminous Cauldron, Fu Haixin had entirely abandoned the idea of getting it back. Given the current situation, she doubted they would return it to her or even let her leave unharmed.
After all, this was Purple Mist Sectâs territory, they had the power to keep everyone here.
Moreover, Fu Haixin and the people of the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect were in the wrong, so they didnât have the confidence to reclaim the Nine Treasure Luminous Cauldron.

Fang Lin proudly patted the badge on his chest, âLook, I am also a Three Cauldrons Pill Refiner, the youngest Three Cauldrons Pill Refiner in the Qian Country Pill Alliance. The Pill Alliance of Qian Country cherishes me as a treasure. I wonder what status you have in the Ling Country Pill Alliance. Can it compare to mine in the Qian Country Pill Alliance?â
Members of the Purple Mist Sect couldnât help but chuckle; Fang Lin was really something. Was this his way of letting Fu Haixin know that he was also someone of status?
However, Fang Linâs words made Fu Haixin lose her color, her expression full of complexity and disappointment.
Truth be told, Fu Haixin, being a Pill Refiner of the Ling Country Pill Alliance, didnât have high status there, nor was she greatly valued. She could only be regarded as an ordinary genius that could barely get by. She was ranked beyond 200 in the rankings of Pill Refiners in Ling Country.
Ling Country, one of the Middle Three Kingdoms, had too many gifted individuals. Compared to their pool of talent, Fu Haixin, who was considered a top genius in Qian Country, was unexceptional.
As for Fang Lin, although he was a Pill Refiner in a small country like Qian Country, he was highly valued in the Qian Country Pill Alliance. Even the Pill Alliance Master, Su Jianchuan, thought highly of him.
Although the Qian Country Pill Alliance was not as prestigious as the Ling Country Pill Alliance, from Fu Haixinâs perspective, if Fang Lin demonstrated his skills in Ling Country, he would probably outperform her.
Indeed, there was a gap. There could be no comparison between individuals.
âNow, you have accepted a bet so you must accept the loss. As a Pill Refiner, not following even this basic rule is disappointing. From now on, when refining pills, you might recall todayâs events, which will become your Heart Demon. When your Heart Demon grows stronger and hinders your Alchemy Tao, Iâm afraid your future potential will be destroyed.â Fang Lin warned ominously.
Actually, Fang Lin wasnât exaggerating, but talking about something that could very well happen.
Not only martial artists, but Pill Refiners also have Heart Demons.
If Fu Haixin were not able to face her failure today and chose to evade it instead, the events of today could become an insurmountable Heart Demon unless she defeats Fang Lin again. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to relieve this Heart Demon, which could affect her future prospects.
Fu Haixin gritted her teeth, muttering, âFine! Is it just about guarding the mountain gate? Iâll do it! But Iâll only guard for ten days!â
Fang Lin grimaced, âOnly ten days? Letâs discuss it again after a year.â
Fu Haixin was furious. A year? If she guarded for a year, would she still have the face to return to Ling Country? By then, the entire Ling Country Pill Alliance would probably know about her humiliating defeat and how she ended up guarding the mountain gate for someone else.
