Chapter 474: A Ringing Slap on the Face

Ling Chuxi could clearly feel that the whole courtyard quieten down the instant Su Yizhi finished speaking. Everyone was shocked silly at his proposal, and it seemed as though even their heartbeats had come to a standstill at the moment.

“Big Brother, this matter can never be solved this way,” said Su Yizhen to Su Yizhi anxiously. He was the first to sober up and speak up.

“Clan Leader, this matter should be given deeper thought. It is such a big matter which has to do with the Su Family’s rise and fall, and success and failure,” voiced out the other elders one after another.

“First Grandfather, this is not possible. Could it be that there is no one else in the Su Family who can participate? How can we allow an outsider to participate in the Sword Pill Meeting on behalf of the Su Family? Won’t the Su Family become a laughingstock if word of this is spread around?”

“Exactly. We are the dignified Su Family of Resurrection Hall. Since when do we need an outsider to help us out? Our reputation will be completely lost if this matter is made known.” A few young men also spoke out emotionally after seeing their elders doing so. Their gazes towards Ling Chuxi were no longer so friendly anymore. One of the young men was Su Yanhua and he was one of the outstanding figures among the younger generation of the Su Family. The reason he was said to be one of the outstanding figures was because there were two others with better talents that were above him. Despite being one of the outstanding figures of the younger generation of the Su Family, he was suppressed until he did not even have the chance to perform in this case.

Ling Chuxi had become slightly melancholy by now. ‘Geez, I have not even agreed yet. Why have I become such a target of criticism? And why is everyone looking at me with that expression? I did not steal any medicinal herbs from your house or roast your family’s old hen. If you want someone to hate, then it should only be right if you hate Jiang Wuhen.’

At this, Ling Chuxi looked at Jiang Wuhen and saw that this fellow had smiles piled onto his face now. He felt extremely fortunate that the target on his head had been successfully diverted.

‘I should have let him endure some beatings over the last few days,’ thought Ling Chuxi regretfully.

“Can any of you guys refine the Ambergris Pill?” asked Su Yizhi indifferently with an unchanged expression. Su Yizhi only made this request after waiting for everyone to talk it all out and once they had almost finished talking, only then did his gaze sweep over the faces of the young Su people one by one as he spoke.

The group of young people whose feelings were running high earlier had calmed down and now they felt shades of shame.

Su Yizhen and the few elders around them also sighed. As they looked at their clan disciples, they somewhat had the helpless feeling of wishing that iron could be turned into steel. It was obvious that there was nobody amongst the young people present who could refine it.

“If we can’t refine it, could it be that she can, then?” After a short silence, a young man with a strongly built body and rough appearance mumbled softly.

“Exactly. If even the disciples of the Su Family are unable to refine it, how could it be possible that she could?” said Su Yanhua sarcastically, grabbing the opportunity to plunge a cold knife into Su Yizhi’s reasoning.

Su Yizhi laughed and looked at Ling Chuxi, inviting her to answer for herself.

“Yeah, I can refine it.” Ling Chuxi’s indifferent words were like a fierce slap on the faces of the Su disciples who objected to Su Yizhi’s proposal. Since Su Yizhi had already given her the conditions to procure the Crisis Reverse Pill, for the sake of Second Elder, she had no room to reject his request.

“You must be boasting. Even if you wanted the Crisis Reverse Pill that badly, you don’t have to blow such a huge piece of cowhide. If you make any mistakes in such matters regarding the Su Family, and you just pat your a*s and leave when the time comes, then what should we do about that?” said another young man indignantly. His face had been slapped red by Ling Chuxi’s verbal slap. What was her basis of talking this wildly when even the disciples of the Su Family of Rejuvenation Valley could not refine the Ambergris Pill?

Ling Chuxi just shot an indifferent glance at the young man who was talking, but she did not say another word. This old man, Su Yizhi was not a simple person indeed. He was worthy of being the owner of Rejuvenation Valley and fearfully he would have long known about many other things. He even knew that she could personally refine the Ambergris Pill. Outsiders had assumed that it was Luo Li who had refined it. Since he knew about this matter, perhaps he would also already know about other things that even Ling Chuxi herself was not privy to.

“She can refine it indeed,” affirmed Su Yizhi with a calm expression.

“First Grandfather, don’t be cheated by her,” exclaimed one of the young men who was unable to resist speaking up.
