Chapter 959: 959 Chapter: You Are Too Ugly Chapter 959: 959 Chapter: You Are Too Ugly The Ling Family Elder was struck dumb, never expecting Fang Lin to be so brutally straightforward, effectively telling him to go back and hit the books so more.
The few other Masters of Pill standing next to Fang Lin nearly burst into laughter; the way Fang Lin spoke was really amusing.
“Master Fang, I have co here with sincere intentions to ask for your guidance. Isn’t your treatnt of a bit too lacking in graciousness?” the Ling Family Elder said, his face sowhat unsightly.
Fang Lin sneered, “Graciousness? When your Ling Family targeted in the past, did you ever show any graciousness? Don’t co at with this pretense. I know exactly what you want to do. Get lost as far as you can, and don’t play these low-level tricks here that can’t even make it to the table.”
The Ling Family Elder was so angry that his face turned deathly pale, completely at a loss for words by Fang’s retort.
“Hmph! Such an impolite person, I refuse to associate with you,” the Ling Family Elder huffed, sweeping his sleeve as he walked away with a belly full of sullen air.
Fang Lin didn’t even glance at him and continued to chat rrily with the people by his side.
“Master Fang, it’s best not to be so arrogant. Soone ca to you in earnest to seek your advice, yet you treat them with such an attitude, it’s truly disheartening,” said another person who approached, looking to be in his fifties, with sparse hair and an ugly face, though he was dressed in luxurious clothing.
“Who are you?” Fang Lin glanced at him and asked indifferently.
The man’s voice was neither loud nor low as he said, “I am Xu Zhenliang, rely a naless individual. I suppose Master Fang wouldn’t recognize .”
Fang Lin nodded seriously, “You’re right, I really don’t know you. So you have no need to be acting all high and mighty in front of .”
Xu Zhenliang snorted lightly, “I just can’t stand your overbearing arrogance. As a fellow Master of Pill, you treat others with such an attitude. Can’t I even speak a few words?”
Master Long stood next to Fang Lin and said softly, “This man is from Elder Tiangang’s faction. You’re a disciple of Elder Tiankui, so of course, he would co out against you.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin understood and couldn’t help but smile wryly. It seed his constant targeting wasn’t all because of himself but also related to his Elder master.
No wonder, though the Eight Great Elders are regarded as the most critical beacons of the Pill Alliance, holding the greatest power, the relationship among the eight Elders is not harmonious, as their struggle for power never ceases.
In their early years, Elder Tiankui and Elder Tiangang even had a personal feud that remained unresolved, continuing even after they both beca Elders.
Consequently, the Pill Refiners associated with Elder Tiankui and those from Elder Tiangang’s line were naturally at odds with each other.
Xu Zhenliang, being a subordinate of Elder Tiangang, would naturally co out to target Fang Lin. Although his words were not too intense, his remarks still accused Fang Lin of being arrogant and impolite.
Fang Lin smiled faintly and said, “So people deserve respect; so do not. Should one stab in the back in secret, am I to smile and be gracious to them?”
He paused before continuing, his gaze sweeping over the many Masters of Pill present, “I prefer an open challenge to those who fan secret flas and stir up hidden currents. Anyone who finds , Fang Lin, unbearably arrogant or who thinks I do not deserve to stand here, co at openly. Whether it’s a duel or a pill refining contest, I, Fang Lin, will rise to the challenge.”
“Well said!” Imdiately, three Masters of Pill ca over, nodded slightly to Fang Lin, and showed good will.
“Fang Lin is a disciple of Elder Tiankui. Whoever wishes to target him is going against Elder Tiankui, and we shall not stand idly by!” declared one of the three Masters of Pill.
Fang Lin imdiately understood upon hearing this: these three must also be the Master of Pill under Elder Tiankui’s command, and technically part of the sa camp as himself; they stood up to speak for him now because he was a disciple of Elder Tiankui.
But with this, Fang Lin would no longer be in the awkward position of being isolated and weak.
The people from the Ling Family and several other Pill Refining families all restrained themselves a bit, not daring to show too much hostility.
However, the old crone and Master Ling had no such scruples and continued to glare at Fang Lin like two dark, venomous snakes.
As for Master Zhong, who had just had a fire control competition with Fang Lin, he also didn’t have a good expression on his face; it seed he was eager to reclaim the face he had lost from Fang Lin.
Master Wen stood before everyone, not saying much, but from ti to ti he would look at Fang Lin with appreciation in his eyes.
Xu Zhenliang’s expression slightly changed when he saw the three Master of Pills from Elder Tiankui’s faction appear, but he didn’t back down imdiately.
“Elder Tiankui is naturally deserving of respect, but I’m afraid that his disciple might tarnish his reputation,” Xu Zhenliang said with a sneer.
Fang Lin glanced at him and said, “Could you move further away? You’re so ugly that my eyes hurt just by looking at you.”
“You!” Xu Zhenliang was instantly enraged, his entire face contorting with anger.
The others burst into laughter, unable to hold it back any longer.
Even Master Wen couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth, finding Fang Lin more and more interesting.
“Fang Lin! Even if you are a disciple of Elder Tiankui, you can’t insult like this!” Xu Zhenliang said through gritted teeth. He was a man who paid great attention to his image. Although he was born a little ugly, nobody had ever called him ugly to his face.
Fang Lin snorted, “Being ugly and not allowing others to say it, you’re really tyrannical. There’s an old saying that goes, ‘The countenance is the portrait of the soul.’ Soone who’s as ugly as you must have a filthy, loathso heart.”
“Very well, Fang Lin, today I’ve seen what you are made of. You truly are an uncultured person!” Xu Zhenliang pointed at Fang Lin and said, his face extrely unsightly.
Fang Lin was not the least bit angry, and said with a smile, “Sorry, I’m just an honest person who doesn’t lie. I say what I see, and everyone here probably agrees with what I said. He really is very ugly.”
“You’re right, looking that ugly, you should spend more ti making yourself presentable at ho.”
“Master Xu, don’t be angry. Although appearance is important, it’s still the face your parents gave you. There’s no need to be so concerned about it.”
“An ugly person needs to read more books. You and the one from before could certainly spend more ti reading at ho. Since you can’t change your appearance, why not improve your cultivation and your temperant?”
····
For a mont, many people began to mock, naturally siding with Fang Lin, looking down on those who had been trying to target him.
Xu Zhenliang was so angry that he was shaking all over. Fang Lin kept harping on his ugliness, and now everyone was talking about how ugly he was. Even soone as thick-skinned as he was felt extrely annoyed.
