Chapter 1,708 The storm is rising

"Senior Brother Huo, why did you ask Su Chen to see the Tiger Roar Pill he refined just now?"

When Huo Jingwei walked out of Su Chen's cave, one of his disciples who followed him asked curiously, "What's interesting about those pills?"

"I am also not certain."

Huo Jingwei shook his head in astonishment, "I just think that his other Cheng Dan may not be as he said, they are just ordinary and unremarkable Cheng Dan."

"What else could it be?"

The disciple asked blankly, "It's impossible. Su Chen has refined a high-quality elixir, and he doesn't want you to see it, right? Isn't it possible?"

"You are still too naive."

Huo Jingwei shook his head, "I was very close to Su Chen's Shennong Cauldron just now. I always felt that at a certain moment, the fluctuation of the elixir coming from the Shennong Cauldron was far more intense than that of Li Dong's Baicao Cauldron. ”

"But in the end, Su Chen also refined the Sixteen-Star Pill, just like Li Dong."

The disciple asked.

"So you are too naive."

Huo Jingwei said, "I suspect that the sixteen-star elixir is not of the highest quality among the batch of elixirs refined by Su Chen. He may have refined a higher-quality elixir, but he did not take it out."

"It's impossible, right? Senior Brother Huo, are you overthinking it?"

The disciples who followed him were shocked.

"I didn't think much about it. Otherwise, where did the strong fluctuation of the pill that I noticed come from? Moreover, he quickly collected all the pills that Su Chen refined. It’s like he’s afraid that others will see other Cheng Dan.”

Huo Jingwei said.

"But, Su Chen has no reason to do this. If it were someone else who was slandered like that by Li Dong, he would definitely want to slap him in the face. How could he have refined a better elixir, but But he deliberately didn’t take it out? Wouldn’t that make Li Dong proud?”

The disciple asked.

Huo Jingwei naturally knows these truths.

You also know that it is against common sense to refine a better elixir but not take it out.

Maybe it was an illusion, but Huo Jingwei always felt that Su Chen was a bit unfathomable, as if he had something up his sleeve.

If Su Chen really had a hand, it would be terrible. It would be even more terrible than directly defeating Li Dong.

Because, instead of taking out the better elixir hidden away, but only taking out the elixir of the same quality as Li Dong, this is equivalent to deliberately making a tie. Everyone knows that deliberately creating a draw during a game is much more difficult than directly winning.

Because, to create a tie, not only does the quality of the elixir need to be exactly the same as the opponent's, but the refining completion time also needs to be exactly the same as the opponent's. This is not something you can do just by being a little stronger than the opponent. You need to be much stronger than the opponent and have an overwhelming advantage to be able to concentrate on doing this.

Moreover, in Huo Jingwei's view, although the result was a draw, Li Dong did not become complacent. Although Li Dong seemed to walk gracefully, in fact it could be said that he ran away in a hurry.

"Li Dong probably senses that something is wrong, but with his arrogant heart, it is impossible to get to the bottom of it. The situation in Danyun Peak is becoming more and more interesting."

Huo Jingwei smiled and then walked towards his cave.

…

The battle between Li Dong and Su Chen ended in a draw. This shocking news spread as quickly as possible in Danyun Peak.

For a moment, everyone was shocked. It was a tie? How much of a coincidence does this have to be to lead to such a result?

However, no matter how coincidental it is, at least one thing is certain, that is, Su Chen's alchemy strength is not just an illusion, but real.

The result of the tie with Li Dong has strongly proved this point.

Just the day after the battle, Hall Master Mu, the leader of the Alchemy Hall, and Elder Ai, the chief elder of the Presbytery, jointly issued an announcement.

In this announcement, a stern tone was used to request all Danyun Peak disciples to stop spreading all rumors, and affirmed the just-concluded battle between Su Chen and Li Dong, advocating that Danyun Peak disciples should be less confrontational and more Friendly discussions and exchanges.

This announcement can be said to have shattered the last bit of rumors, making everyone truly realize that Su Chen's rise was entirely due to his true ability and not through any backdoor. At least, even Li Dong's master, Elder Ai, has expressed his affirmation to Su Chen through this announcement.

Su Chen didn't care whether Elder Ai affirmed him. The only thing he cared about was whether Elder Ai would keep his promise and give those resources to him.

Elder Ai was indeed an open-minded person. An hour after the announcement was made, Elder Ai's people secretly came to Su Chen's cave and gave all the promised resources to Su Chen.

Thirty million spiritual stones, one hundred rare elixirs of high-level life and death realm, and two thousand high-level Chi Yuan Dan.

"Get rich!"

When Su Chen saw these things, he couldn't stop the smile on his face.

Coupled with the thousand high-level Chi Yuan Dan that Li Dong lost to him, he now has no resources in terms of resources.
