Seeing how confidently Ye Nan answered, Sun Wu was secretly thrilled.

If Ye Nan took down Hailin City's alchemy genius too, Hailin City would suffer a major loss.

"City Lord Lü, is what you said true?"

With confidence in his heart, Sun Wu turned his gaze to Lü Yunshan.

"Of course!"

Lü Yunshan nodded in answer.

He thought to himself that if Sun Wu was asking that, there was hope.

As long as Sun Wu agreed, he was confident they could take back the starstone mine at the border between the two cities.

In fact, Hailin City had no genius alchemist.

But a few days ago, a genius alchemist from the Southeast City Alchemist Alliance had come to Hailin City.

He happened to be related to the genius alchemist.

"All right, I agree. When do we start?"

Sun Wu didn't think much about it and nodded his agreement.

"I'll send someone back to Hailin City to bring the genius alchemist here right away."

Lü Yunshan had thought Sun Wu would haggle a little longer, but he hadn't expected him to agree outright.

In that case, how could he let this opportunity slip by?

"All right."

Sun Wu then had rooms arranged for Lü Yunshan and his party.

They went to the city lord's residence's meeting room, and the meeting began after Zhang Yueshan, the Alchemist Alliance's leader, arrived.

When Zhang Yueshan learned that Hailin City wanted to pit its genius alchemist against Jiangcheng's, he couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.

At the Jiang City Alchemist Alliance, he had seen with his own eyes how Ye Nan refined the Blood Battle Pill.

He knew there was no need to mention Hailin City's alchemy genius.

Even Southeast City's alchemy genius would be like an egg striking a stone before Ye Nan.

After Zhang Yueshan confirmed it, the atmosphere in the meeting room grew much more relaxed.

Hailin City's genius alchemist would arrive the next day, so Ye Nan chose not to leave the city lord's residence.

After the meeting ended, City Lord Sun Wu also gave him some assurances, namely that he would grant his parents certain privileges.

The next day.

It was the second day.

Several more men entered the city lord's residence.

Among the men was a youth.

The youth looked no older than twenty, with a slender figure and handsome features.

By then, Ye Nan had already come out of his room.

When the youth appeared in the city lord's residence's plaza, he noticed him.

The system's trait could reveal not only a Martial Artist's realm, but also an alchemist's rank.

Ye Nan discovered that the youth was actually a third-grade alchemist.

Becoming a third-grade alchemist at such an age was truly terrifying.

It looked like Hailin City really had produced an alchemy genius.

When Lü Yunshan, the lord of Hailin City, saw the youth arrive, he breathed a long sigh of relief inwardly.

He then fixed his gaze on Sun Wu's face, looking immensely pleased with himself.

"Sun Wu, this is our Hailin City's alchemy genius. His name is Du Yun."

Lü Yunshan laughed.

Sun Wu looked at the youth, Du Yun, before him and was somewhat stunned.

The next second, he grew somewhat angry.

"Lü Yunshan, he isn't your Hailin City's alchemy genius at all. I've seen him at the Southeast City Alchemist Alliance before!"

As soon as he said that, the Martial Artists from Jiangcheng's city lord's residence grew angry too.

They had wondered how Lü Yunshan had dared to be so confident about holding another contest with Jiangcheng.

So that was it!

"Actually, I don't think it's a problem. As long as I'm willing, I can be a citizen of Hailin City."

Just as everyone in the plaza was seething with anger, Du Yun spoke.

"Hahahaha, Sun Wu, did you hear that?"

Hearing Du Yun say that, Lü Yunshan immediately beamed with delight.

"City Lord, it's all right."

Ye Nan looked at City Lord Sun Wu's ashen face and spoke slowly.

Hearing Ye Nan say that, City Lord Sun Wu looked again at Lü Yunshan and Du Yun before him and said:

"Lü Yunshan, today's wager is down in black and white, so..."

"Don't worry, Sun Wu. Are you afraid I'll go back on my word?"

Hearing Sun Wu's words, Lü Yunshan couldn't help feeling like laughing.

As he saw it, he should have been the one saying that.

What right did Sun Wu have to say it?

Du Yun looked at Ye Nan, who was about to compete with him in alchemy. He yawned, his face languid, and instantly found it all utterly boring.

He was a genius of the Southeast City Alchemy Alliance; a mere Ye Nan really wasn't worth his notice.

"City Lord Lü, I think we should hurry. I'm quite busy."

Out of the blue, Du Yun spoke to Lü Yunshan.

"City Lord Sun, take us to the place you've prepared."

Lü Yunshan spoke with a cold laugh.

Ye Nan's martial talent was indeed terrifying, but Jiangcheng was actually sending him out to compete again. It was enough to make the whole world laugh.

Now the nebula mine at the border between Hailin City and Jiangcheng would belong to Haiyun City.

Before long, Sun Wu led the group to the Alchemist Alliance.

Only the Alchemist Alliance had an alchemy room on this scale.

After entering the alchemy room, the people from Hailin City and Jiangcheng took their seats on their respective sides.

Ye Nan and Du Yun also went up to the alchemy platform.

There were some medicinal herbs on the alchemy platform.

Thanks to the Super Alchemy Brain, Ye Nan instantly knew that these herbs were for refining the third-grade Moon-Clearing Pill.

The Moon-Clearing Pill was a high-tier third-grade pill and belonged to a broad category of pills.

Du Yun had refined a Moon-Clearing Pill before, so he naturally knew that the herbs on the alchemy platform were for refining one.

Seeing this, he pondered for a few seconds, then gave a cold laugh:

"I think the Moon-Clearing Pill is too low-grade. How about we refine Cloud Heaven Pills?"

In Du Yun's view, after he said those words,

These people would surely be shocked beyond measure.

Sure enough,

After Du Yun spoke, the people from both Jiangcheng and Hailin City were stunned.

Refine Cloud Heaven Pills?

The Cloud Heaven Pill also belonged to a broad category of pills. It was a low-tier fourth-grade pill.

Ye Nan really hadn't expected Du Yun to say that, but he smiled after he recovered from his surprise.

The system wouldn't lie. Its trait had told him that Du Yun was only a third-grade alchemist.

If he was a third-grade alchemist, then refining a low-tier fourth-grade Cloud Heaven Pill was absolutely impossible.

Du Yun had said that merely to try to frighten him.

But how could he, with his cheat, be bluffed so easily by Du Yun?

"If you can do it, either is fine with me."

Ye Nan spoke calmly to Du Yun, his face perfectly composed, as though he were merely talking about a trivial matter.

Hearing Ye Nan's answer, Du Yun gritted his teeth.

He had thought Ye Nan would be frightened, but he hadn't expected him to be so composed.

He was clearly just someone from a minor place, so how dared he act so cocky before a genius of the Southeast City Alchemist Alliance?

"All right, then we'll refine Moon-Clearing Pills!"

As his words fell,

Du Yun spread his palm, and Medicinal Fire appeared in it.

Information about the Moon-Clearing Pill appeared in Ye Nan's mind. He could only say that the Super Alchemy Brain was too heaven-defying.

Pill Fire appeared in his palm as well...

Although the Moon-Clearing Pill was a high-tier third-grade pill, it still fell within the category of third-grade pills.

With Ye Nan's current alchemy experience, quickly refining a high-tier third-grade pill was all too easy.

After about twenty minutes,

The flames in the medicinal cauldron before Ye Nan vanished.

"He failed, didn't he?"

Lü Yunshan and the Hailin City party swallowed. They no longer dared to act as arrogantly as before.

For they had discovered that Ye Nan's Pill Fire was even more outrageous than Du Yun's.

Sun Wu and the others were also filled with anxiety. No one knew what was inside the medicinal cauldron.
