Chapter 62 - Gone Overboard

Everyone subconsciously held their breath. They were about to witness the appearance of a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill. If this news were to spread, who knew how many forces would be shocked?

However, when he saw the pill in Ye Xuan’s hand, they immediately showed a disappointed expression.

The black pill looked ordinary, without any special features or medicinal fragrance. It was like a pill made from coal ash under a boiler.

The Su family almost burst out laughing, “Are you telling me that this is a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill?”

“Brother Lin, where did you invite this person from? Is he here to make a joke?” the Su family patriarch said with a mocking expression.

Even Alchemy King Gu Xi was speechless and embarrassed. After all, he was the one who brought Ye Xuan here. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Elder Ye, what are you doing? This isn’t supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill.”

No one had ever seen what a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill looked like, but the one in Ye Xuan’s hand was probably not. After all, it was too ordinary.

Even the other guests joined in the jeering, “Although we’ve never seen it before, it doesn’t mean that we don’t know what it is. You’re trying to fool us with a random meatball. Do you think we’re fools?”

“It makes sense. How could a low-level cultivator have a divine item like supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill?”

Patriarch Su’s eyes were full of contempt, “I’ll let you see what a real supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill is.”

Unlike Ye Xuan’s casual attitude, he carefully poured out a pill from the jade bottle instead. Even the bottle was made of top-quality spiritual jade, which could preserve the medicinal effect to the greatest extent. It was enough to show how precious the thing inside was.

A refreshing medicinal fragrance filled the air, and everyone’s expression suddenly changed.

It was a white pill without any impurities. It was said that the higher the quality of the pill, the lighter the color. It was also without any impurities. It was like a high-quality white jade. It was more like a piece of art rather than a pill.

The whole place was silent.

Unfortunately, there was only half of the pill. Since it was incomplete, only a portion of the medicinal effect could be displayed. Everyone present sighed thinking about this.

As long as one had eyes, one would be able to see that this pill was extraordinary.

“Ordinary pills are mainly red and black. It’s indeed a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill. I’ve never seen one with such a clear color.”

It was an eye-opener for everyone to see that it could still reflect a strange luster under the sun.

In comparison, the pill in Ye Xuan’s hand was more like a ball rolled out of the mud, which was extremely ridiculous.

Looking at the envious eyes of the people around him, the Su family patriarch was even more proud.

“Look carefully. This is the real supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill. It’s obtained from the ancient mystic realm, not something that the thing in your hand can fake.”

Although Ye Xuan didn’t understand why the two were so different in appearance even though they were both supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills, he believed that anything produced by the system must be of the highest quality.

The one he had was definitely better than the Su family patriarch!

Ye Xuan’s expression was calm despite facing everyone’s doubts. His eyes fell on Lin Yuanheng and he said meaningfully, “I’m willing to give this supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill to Young Master Lin.”

Lin Yuanheng had once helped him out of trouble and showed kindness to him. Therefore, Ye Xuan was willing to help him. The opportunity was already there, and it was up to Lin Yuanheng to seize it.

Many people admired Ye Xuan’s courage. Things had already come to this point, but he still insisted that the one he had was a genuine supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill.

“Who would eat something of unknown origin? Even if one has the pill, why would one take out such a precious pill casually?”

What everyone didn’t know was that what they thought extremely precious was worthless to Ye Xuan. He wouldn’t even feel bad if he lost hundreds of them, let alone one.

If it wasn’t for the mission, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble.

Patriarch Su put on a high and mighty attitude, “Brother Lin, I’m not a person who holds grudges. It’s not too late if you regret it now. I’m willing to give you this pill as an apology for breaking off the engagement.”

He paused and glanced at Ye Xuan, “It’s better not to eat those things of unknown origin. If something bad happens, the Lin family will have no successor.”

When Lin Yuanheng and the others heard this, their faces turned ashen. If it were not for the people who stopped them, they would have already rushed forward.

The Su family was too arrogant. They looked down on the Lin family completely and repeatedly humiliated them in public. The Lin family patriarch originally wanted to refuse, but he had to think for Lin Yuanheng. Therefore, he could only suppress his anger.

“Heng’er, you see…”

Lin Yuanheng did not want to embarrass the Lin family, and he did not want to connive the Su family either. If he accepted the pill, it meant that he had to submit to the Su family. So what if his foundation was restored?

He was afraid that he would hang his head in shame, and the title of good-for-nothing would accompany him for the rest of his life. No man could stand it. Not only was the woman breaking off the engagement in public, but he was also humiliated.

“I’ll say it again, I don’t care about your medicinal pills. Take your things and get lost!”

After that, Lin Yuanheng took the pill from Ye Xuan’s hand and swallowed it. None had expected him to do this.

The Lin family patriarch’s expression changed slightly, but it was too late to stop him.

“Heng’er, you’re too impulsive. How could you eat something like that? You shouldn’t play with your life even if you’re angry.”

The others were also dumbfounded. They stuttered, “No way, Young Master Lin ate the black meatball.”

“The black pill should be an ordinary pill without any poison.”

Lin Yuanheng opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he fainted on the ground the next second.

Everyone’s expression changed, and the scene became extremely chaotic.

Ye Xuan had gone overboard this time!
