Harvest (Part V)

With the advent of the Three-Patterned Green Spirit Pill, the Alchemist Tournament of the Jia Ma Empire has come to an end.

As he watched the last grain of sand in the hourglass completely drain away, Fa Ma immediately stepped forward with a smile and announced.

"I hereby declare that the champion of this year's Alchemist Tournament of the Jia Ma Empire is Yan."

"Wait!" Just now, when Fa Ma was announcing Yan Li's victory, Xiao Yan interrupted him. Now, Yan Li Fa Ma by interrupting Xiao Yan when he announced Yan Xiao as the champion.

Yan Li interrupted Fa Ma because the cauldron had exploded while Xiao Yan Pill Refining. At this point, in order to survive, Yan Li naturally had to seize even the smallest detail. Therefore, Yan Li immediately suggested checking Xiao Yan's pill to prevent him from using a fake pill that only looked similar to the Three-Patterned Green Spirit Pill.

Even if Fa Ma was unwilling, he had no choice but to check everyone's pills one by one, as the contestants asked normal questions.

However, after several alchemists took turns inspecting the pills and announced that Xiao Yan's Three-Patterned Green Spirit Pill was perfect, Yan Li's last hope was shattered by the results of the inspection.

After this final check, no one could stop Fa Ma from announcing the results of the Alchemist Tournament, and Xiao Yan was officially declared the champion.

Knowing that there was no way to turn the Yan Li, Yanli had already lost interest in listening when Fa Ma announced the result and disappeared into the crowd.

After announcing the results, the competition came to an end. Only then did Fa Ma his gaze to the arena. Seeing Yan Li disappear, Fa Ma didn't panic. Instead, he calmly said to Elder Hai and Jia Xingtian, "Let's go! Let's deal with this eyesore."

As soon as Fa Ma finished speaking, four empty seats appeared on the platform.

Yan Li, who was on the run, suddenly felt uneasy.

While fleeing, Yan Li had vaguely sensed an unusual aura emanating from him, but after searching for a while, he couldn't find it. Given the urgency of the situation, Yan Li didn't dwell on it and focused on escaping for his life. But now, however, this strange feeling was becoming increasingly pronounced, weighing heavily on Yan Li's heart.

"Something's wrong, come out!" After sensing something amiss again, Yan Li immediately stopped and shouted at his surroundings.

"Little guy, why are you in such a hurry to leave? You're the runner-up in this competition, you should stay and celebrate!" Not long after Yan Li's shout, an old voice echoed around.

As the sound echoed, Yan Li's pupils dilated infinitely. If it were only Fa Ma, Yan Li felt he still had a chance to escape, but now that three old men and one young man appeared before him, Yan Li could only despair.

Although Yan Li didn't recognize this young man, he did recognize the other three old men. Fa Ma and Jia Xingtian were self-explanatory; one was the Guardian of the Royal Family with the cultivation of Dou Emperor, and the other was the president of the Alchemist Guild, whose alchemy skills reached the Fifth Grade Peak, and whose cultivation also reached the Dou Wang Peak.

As for Elder Hai, although his name is unknown, the fact that he froze away the gray robe that was covering him yesterday shows that he is definitely a Dou Emperor Expert.

Under the watchful eyes of two Dou Emperors and one Dou Wang Peak, Yan Li felt he had no hope of escaping.

"Fa Ma, don't push your luck! I am the Vice President of the Alchemy Guild of the Chu Yun Empire. If I die, you can expect the Chu Yun Empire to turn against you!" At this moment, in order to save his own life, Yan Li didn't care whether it was useful or not, and he started to exaggerate.

"Not to mention that my Jia Ma Empire is inherently hostile to your Chu Yun Empire, your act of Alchemist Tournament of my Jia Ma Empire is already deserving of death." In response to Yan Li's words, Jia Xingtian immediately said with contempt.

"You forced me to this. Since you won't give me a way out, then you won't have an easy time either." As Yan Li finished speaking, the Dou Qi within his body surged rapidly.

"Watch out, he's about to self-destruct!" Seeing Yan Li's current state, Jia Xingtian immediately warned him.

The self-destruction of a Dou King Expert would cause significant harm even to them if they weren't prepared. Therefore, upon seeing Yan Li's unusual behavior, everyone became vigilant.

"If I die, none of you will have an easy time!"

"Bang!"

"This power is wrong, Lin Ming, Yan Li is coming towards you." When the sound rang out, everyone noticed something was amiss, after all, the power was far too weak.

"Haha, you only just realized it? It's too late. This kid must be someone important to you to have come with you! If you don't want him to die, then you'd better get out of my way." Yan Li laughed arrogantly.

Upon seeing Jia Xingtian and his group arrive, Yan Li had already planned to find an opportunity to kidnap Lin Ming, a young man, as a hostage, as this was the only way he could have a chance to escape.

However, with Jia Xingtian and the others present, Yan Li wasn't entirely sure he had a chance to catch Lin Ming. That's why Yan Li had just made it seem like he was going to die with them.

However, a mere show wouldn't fool those old foxes like Jia Xingtian, so the explosion just now was indeed a real explosion. However, it wasn't Yan Li's entire body that exploded, but rather the commotion he created by sacrificing an arm.

Seeing that Jia Xingtian, and looking at Lin Ming who was so close at hand, Yan Li was already fantasizing about taking him hostage and returning to the Chu Yun Empire, and then slowly torturing Lin Ming to vent his anger.

However, while he was fantasizing, although he saw Jia Xingtian and the other two remind the young man named Lin Ming Jia Xingtian, he did not see any worry on their faces, and he did not see anyone coming to rescue him.

At that moment, Yan Li suddenly wondered if he had guessed wrong, and if this Lin Ming was not an important person. If so, then his plans would be ruined!

But since things have come to this point, there's no other way but to go down this path to the bitter end. If Lin Ming really isn't an important person, then let him pay for it with his life!

That way, he would at least take someone from the Jia Ma Empire with him in his death, which would make him feel a little better. Therefore, Yan Li no longer paid attention to the reactions of Jia Xingtian and the others, and focused all his attention on Lin Ming.
