Peerless Taoist

This green cow was two stories tall, and its breath was like a dragon. As it breathed in and out, it instantly arrived in front of the cave.    

On the back of the green cow sat an old man. He wore a Daoist robe and held a horsetail whisk in his hand. He looked like a transcendent being and was very free and at ease.    

Upon seeing this old man, the acolytes were pleasantly surprised and hurriedly went forward to welcome him.    

"We pay our respects to Master." The apprentices said respectfully.    

The old man slowly nodded. "When I was not around, did you carefully study it?"    

Everyone hurriedly said, "We would not dare to forget Master's teachings."    

Hearing what everyone said, the old man slowly nodded his head.    

"Is the Heavenly God Ye ready?" The old man asked.    

The apprentice hurriedly took out the herbs from the storage bag and respectfully handed them over, "It's been prepared for Master for a long time."    

The old man counted and frowned, "Why is the quality so bad?"    

What he needed was a top grade Heavenly God Leaf.    

This level of medicinal herb would also affect his pill refinement.    

The apprentice was confused. "Master, that shopkeeper said that he would give us the best. Could he be deceiving me? I will go look for him!"    

The old man let out a long sigh. "Forget it."    

It was a classic rule in the cultivation world that there was no adultery and no business.    

If you don't have good eyesight, then you deserve to be unlucky.    

At this moment, a cool breeze passed by.    

Under the old man's Daoist robe, a medal was revealed.    

This medal was clearly the same as Master Zheng's.    

The old man was Grandmaster Nangong, and he was also a Black Grade alchemist.    

"I paid a visit to my old friend, and he told me that there was a young alchemist whose attainment wasn't any lower than his." Great Master Nangong stroked his beard and looked at his disciple with disappointment.    

"You are talking about Master Zheng, how is that possible? Among the younger generation, we should be the strongest." The acolyte said confidently.    

Seeing how the disciples were behaving, Grandmaster Nangong let out a long sigh.    

He slowly walked into the water curtain cave.    

In a corner of the cave, there was a pill furnace.    

The flame in the pill furnace had already been extinguished. There were still some remnants of medicinal herbs scattered around.    

Everything here was no different from when he left.    

However, Grandmaster Nangong's brows were tightly furrowed.    

He smelled the scent in the air and suddenly shouted angrily, "Which one of you took the opportunity to secretly refine a pill while I wasn't paying attention?"    

Hearing this furious roar, all the disciples shivered.    

The rules of Great Master Nangong's sect were extremely strict.    

If their basic skills were not up to standard, they would definitely not be allowed to concoct pills.    

If they were discovered, they would definitely be expelled from their sect.    

Everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground. "Master, we didn't."    

Master Nangong's face turned even redder. "You dare lie?"    

The apprentice was the first to react. He shouted, "I know who it is. Just now, it was him who secretly came in to concoct pills."    

Thus, the apprentice told Master Nangong everything that had happened just now in an exaggerated manner.    

However, according to his description, Lu Yu had become the thief who stole the medicine, and they happened to find out that Lu Yu had stolen the medicine.    

Great Master Nangong didn't believe it at first, but when he saw that everyone was so confident, he wiped the powder off the ground with a skeptical expression.    

This was the powder that was released when he was condensing the medicine.    

If it wasn't for the fact that he was an experienced alchemist, it would be very difficult for him to discover their existence.    

Great Master Nangong smelled the scent of the powder and his expression suddenly changed.
