Supreme Demon God

Chapter 61: One Step Forward is the Abyss

For patient 32, there was a huge blood hole on his body, and only half of his life was left.

Patient 31 did not seem to have any injuries on his body, but the situation was even worse. This person was in a coma and had no consciousness. An unknown tiny bug in his body had eaten up most of his internal organs, it was a wonder that this person could live to this very second.

Patient 33 had no external injuries or obvious internal injuries, but suffered a severe brain injury and was also unconscious. It was estimated that even if he woke up, there would be some mental problems.

Patient 34 had no external injuries, no internal injuries, and no severe brain damage, but he was hit by a terrible poison. His lips were black and his whole body was blue and purple. This fellow looked like he was a monster running down from a certain mountain.

Patient 35 was even more of a headache. This was also a dying person and had been artificially isolated, obviously, he was suffering from some kind of infectious disease.

To the mass, it was a very strong disease. Mo Xiu clearly knew that it was an infectious disease that even a cultivator couldn't resist. If one was accidentally infected, his life would be in danger.

There were five patients in total, and they were the most difficult five among all the patients present. They were all thrown to Mo Xiu, and everyone had to be cured within two hours, which seemed a bit too much.

Mo Xiu didn't complain but took another look at the old man presiding over this round of assessment.

The old man also looked at Mo Xiu, even stared at Mo Xiu as he said viciously, "What? Is there a problem?"

While questioning, he had already made up his mind. As long as Mo Xiu dared to complain, he would disqualify Mo Xiu from participating in the assessment and kick him out.

Many people thought that he was aiming at Mo Xiu. In fact, this was indeed the case, but it was not because of the instruction from any boss, but his own intention.

It was also true that it was partial to Mo Ling'er, otherwise, the patient who was the easiest to cure would not be handed over to Mo Ling'er, and only one patient will be assigned to Mo Ling'er at that either.

He even targeted Mo Xiu for Mo Ling'er, because Mo Ling'er had booked the first place with him, but she was killed by Mo Xiu halfway and snatched Mo Ling'er's first place, which was something he did not want to see.

Of course, Mo Ling'er did not bribe him, and she did not know him, but this guy knew Mo Ling'er, and he had an irresistible relationship with Mo Ling'er's father, the Lord of the Spirit Medicine Valley, Mo Wentian, and often had correspondence.

Originally, he didn't need to be so obvious or even need to do this kind of thing, however, he had heard something a while ago: Li Xuanzong and others' Master, Alchemy League Elder Luo Hongchen planned to recruit another true disciple in the Yan Kingdom.

With Mo Ling'er's qualifications and abilities, it was highly possible to become Luo Hongchen's disciple, provided that Mo Ling'er would get the first place in the pharmacist status assessment held by the Alchemy League, enter the sight of Li Xuanzong and others, and let Li Xuanzong and others helped recommend her.

Relying on his friendship with Mo Wentian, as long as Mo Ling'er could become Luo Hongchen's apprentice, he was equivalent to having a real backer in the Alchemy League, so his status would rise by then.

If there were no Mo Xiu, Mo Ling'er would definitely get first place in this assessment. After all, among the people in Yan Country who participated in the assessment for several years, no one was as good as Mo Ling'er.

But Mo Xiu was born out of nowhere, concealing all the aura of Mo Ling'er, so let alone becoming a disciple of Luo Hongchen, she would not be able to even get the first place in this pharmacist certificate assessment.

If she couldn't get first place in the assessment, she couldn't become Luo Hongchen's disciple. So his future patron would fall, so how could he let this happen?

It just happened that Mu Hongxiu had something to do, so she changed him to preside over the third round of the assessment, so he moved his hands and feet according to the rules of the assessment, favoring Mo Ling'er and targeting Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu didn't know much about the ins and outs of the matter, but no matter how the old man deliberately targeted him, he could still see it.

Hearing the old man's words and feeling the old man's fierce gaze, he somewhat guessed the old man's thoughts.

He still didn't complain, just said, "One step forward is the abyss, I advise you to hurry up."

"What did you say?" the old man was taken aback for a moment.

Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, ignored him, and didn't do anything secretly, just walked towards the patients.

In his opinion, these people were no different from ants, and he would not care about the interference of the ant.

If he really took it to heart, he would have trampled the ants to death a long time ago, and would not give the ants so many opportunities for nonsense.

The old man naturally knew that Mo Xiu didn't do anything secretly, but he still had some doubts about what Mo Xiu said.

Soon, he was furious, "Boy, are you threatening me?"

As he said, he sneered, "Very well, it seems that you don't put our Alchemy League in your eyes at all. In that case, you don't need to participate in this round of assessment, I will directly..."

Before he could finish, a voice rang, "Directly what?"

The hall-door was pushed open as a figure slowly entered inside. It was Li Xuanzong who said before that he wanted to observe Mo Xiu's third round of assessment.

Hearing Li Xuanzong's voice and seeing Li Xuanzong's figure, the old man was stunned for a moment, and he turned around to greet him without caring about Mo Xiu anymore.

"Senior Brother Li," he respectfully bowed.

Although he was much older than Li Xuanzong in age, Li Xuanzong was the true disciple of an elder of the Alchemy League and one of the main people in charge of the Alchemy League on the side of the Yan Kingdom.

After Li Xuanzong entered the hall, he first looked around, and finally, his eyes fell on the old man.

The old man immediately felt a lot of pressure. When he was not sure of Li Xuanzong's intention, he had to ask, "Senior Brother Li, are you here to...?"

"I heard that there is a talented pharmacist named Lin Wuji in the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce who is participating in the assessment of our Alchemy League organization. So I come here to take a look," Li Xuanzong replied flatly.

The old man couldn't help but hesitate in his heart. This seemingly ordinary answer was actually very meaningful.

First of all, everyone in the Yan Kingdom had to participate and pass the Alchemy League's assessment to be considered as an official pharmacist, otherwise, they would not be called a pharmacist, just an ordinary person who understood some medical stuff.

Mo Xiu was now participating in the third round of assessment, but Li Xuanzong used the words "genius pharmacist" to describe him, and one could imagine what it meant.

Secondly, Li Xuanzong had made it very clear that he did not come to see others participate in the assessment, but to especially see Mo Xiu participate in the assessment.

It showed how optimistic Li Xuanzong was about Mo Xiu.

Before, the old man wanted to use his authority to drive Mo Xiu out, so that Mo Xiu could not participate in the third round of assessment so that the first place in this pharmacist assessment could fall firmly to Mo Ling'er.

But now that Li Xuanzong came here deliberately, how could he drive Mo Xiu out?

Not to mention driving out Mo Xiu, he even worried that Mo Xiu would complain to Li Xuanzong.

Although everything he did was within the rules, he only used the loopholes in the rules to make things difficult for Mo Xiu, but regarding the fact that he was partial to Mo Ling'er or made things difficult for Mo Xiu, he did it a little too obvious.

If it hadn't been for Li Xuanzong's deliberate arrival, only the results of the third round of assessment would be reported afterward, and the process would not be known, so he would not know that he was biased in the assessment process.

But now, still in the assessment, Li Xuanzong could see the true situation of the assessment clearly, once Mo Xiu opened a complaint, he might really fall into the abyss.

Thinking of this, he quickly looked at Mo Xiu, secretly feeling suspicious, "How did this guy know that Li Xuanzong was coming? Is it possible to predict the future?"

Naturally, Mo Xiu didn't complain. He didn't even pay attention to the old man and Li Xuanzong, but just looked at a few patients.

Seeing Mo Xiu didn't mean to sue, the old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he soon heard Li Xuanzong say, "What's the matter? Why is the distribution of patients so unfair?"

The old man was shocked and quickly explained, "Senior Brother Li, according to the rules of assessment, patients are randomly assigned."

Li Xuanzong frowned and glanced at the old man coldly, "Do you think I'm a fool? Can this also be called random assignment?"

The old man was startled, sweating wildly, and bit the bullet and explained, "Is Senior Brother Li talking about Lin Wuji? I think he got full marks in the first and second rounds, so I thought of making the third round of assessment a little more difficult and let him know that the assessment of our Alchemy League is not so easy."

This explanation was indeed plausible, it was all for the sake of the Alchemy League, not for selfishness.

However, Li Xuanzong was not so foolish, he didn't listen to what the old man said.

He stared at the old man for a while and then sneered suddenly, "I heard that you and Mo Wentian of Spirit Medicine Valley have a relationship, and you often have correspondence in secret, so you want to use Mo Ling'er as your future backer in the Alchemy League?"

The old man was shocked when he heard this.

There were so few people who knew that he and Mo Wentian had a friendship, and even Mo Ling'er didn't know it. But how was Li Xuanzong able to notice this?

Also, even knowing his relationship with Mo Wentian, Li Xuanzong still dared to let him preside over the third round of assessment? Why did he do this?

He began to realize that it was not good, could it be that everything was deliberate, not only wanted to grab his fox tail but also borrowed his hand to increase the difficulty of the assessment for Mo Xiu?

Before he could figure it out, he heard Li Xuanzong scolded angrily, "Shameful dog! Go away by yourself, I'll take care of you when things are ready here."

The old man swallowed, his face pale, and wanted to explain, but he didn't say anything in the end, he just bowed to Li Xuanzong and slowly exited the hall.

After that, Li Xuanzong looked at everyone involved in the assessment and said loudly, "I will be responsible for the assessment of this round."

Those who were assigned to very difficult patients were overjoyed, but they hadn't been happy for long before they heard Li Xuanzong say, "Except for having me here, everything is going on as usual."

After that, when he came to Mo Xiu, he said slowly, "You too, if you feel that the patient cannot be cured within the prescribed time, you can choose to give up."
