Chapter 2042: Chapter 2041: You Must Be Blind!

Swish, swish, swish—

As soon as Han Junjie finished speaking, countless eyes instantly focused on Su Han.

Su Han frowned slightly, glanced at Han Junjie, and remained expressionless.

With just one sentence, Su Han’s status in the Shen Dao Sect was significantly lowered!

What does it mean to squeeze through?

Although Su Han was standing among the crowd, truly no one was squeezing him.

But Han Junjie’s implication was clearly that Su Han was not valued at all in the Shen Dao Sect and couldn’t even get a good spot to watch!

Moreover, with one sentence from Han Junjie, he could make the crowd part, allowing Su Han to watch from the front.

This indirectly demonstrates the superior position Han Junjie holds among these disciples.

And it also shows the difference in status between Su Han and Young Master Yun Chong!

Many people know that Nine Shadows Young Master, Su Baliu, is a freak with outstanding talent and strength, but the only drawback is that he has no significant background.

While Han Junjie is Young Master Yun Chong, the number one Heavenly Talent in the martial path of Shen Dao Sect!

The comparison between the two is clear as day!

"Young Master Su, my many junior brothers are rather ignorant, somewhat rude indeed. I hope Young Master Su can forgive them."

Han Junjie maintained a gentle smile, but beneath his eyes was a gloom visible to Su Han.

He pointed at the path cleared by the parting crowd and said to Su Han again, "Brother Han specially reserved this spot for Young Master Su. Standing here, watching Brother Han contend in the alchemy contest, is the most comfortable spot."

Upon hearing this, Su Han shook his head with a smile but still walked over.

"Brother Han is quite considerate. I, Su, thank Brother Han," Su Han said with a clasp of his fist after standing his ground.

To be honest, this spot...

is really quite comfortable.

At least, with no one obstructing in front, Su Han could clearly see Han Junjie and others contending in alchemy with the naked eye, without needing divine sense.

"Fuxi Star, as the Star of Medicinal Herbs, the Shen Dao Sect is the hometown of the Alchemy Dao."

Han Junjie continued, "Since Young Master Su is willing to come and watch, he should have some knowledge of the Alchemy Dao, right?"

This statement left the crowd completely silent.

Han Junjie was cornering Su Han again!

Han Junjie didn’t know if Su Han mastered the Alchemy Dao, but the underlying meaning was clear—if you don’t know the Alchemy Dao, then why bother watching the fun? Go cultivate your martial path!

Everyone was smart enough to easily understand Han Junjie’s implication.

Su Han was especially clear!

If he claimed not knowing now, he would immediately fall into Han Junjie’s trap and be despised by others.

In fact, Han Junjie was probably already preparing his next taunting remarks to belittle Su Han.

This was a form of coercion! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

For the sake of face, Su Han would be forced by Han Junjie to claim he knew the Alchemy Dao!

And did he truly know it?

Even if he did, Han Junjie had great confidence in his own alchemical attainment.

Though inferior to Su Han in martial skill, Han Junjie felt certain he could suppress Su Han in the Alchemy Dao!

"It seems Senior Brother Han still harbors grudges against Young Master Su!"

"Nonsense, during the Flower God Star period, Nine Shadows Young Master repressed Senior Brother Han and others, and during the Heavenly Talent contest, he swept all Heavenly Talents, though not specifically targeting Senior Brother Han, yet someone with Senior Brother Han’s mentality wouldn’t willingly live in Nine Shadows Young Master’s shadow?"

"Indeed, it’s unfortunate for Nine Shadows Young Master this time; why not just wait for the Altar of the Divine Dao to open? Why come here to watch the excitement..."

"As the hometown of the Alchemy Dao, Shen Dao Sect produces one outstanding Pill Master after another. Senior Brother Han, as the top Alchemy Dao figure among the younger generation of Shen Dao Sect, his alchemical attainment is undoubtedly indisputable!"

"Exactly, Nine Shadows Young Master’s martial skill is formidable, but precisely because of this strength, his Alchemy Dao might be extremely weak, perhaps even nonexistent!"

"After all, someone as freakish as him likely spends all his time cultivating the martial path; how would he have time to study the Alchemy Dao?"

"Haha, suppression from the Alchemy Dao perspective; Senior Brother Han finally gets a chance to vent."

...

The crowd debated noisily, with constant uproar.

Su Han didn’t hear any direct taunts, but Han Junjie’s attitude made him somewhat resentful.

In reality, whether it’s Flower God Star or the Heavenly Talent contest, Su Han never deliberately targeted Han Junjie.

But talents like Han Junjie always hold themselves in high regard, arrogance reaching the heavens, assuming that others must be weaker than them.

Thus, once defeated in martial skill, Han Junjie held onto resentment.

Until now, finally seizing a chance to genuinely humiliate Su Han, Han Junjie naturally wouldn’t let it pass!

And there on the platform, aside from Han Junjie, was another familiar face.

That was Han Junjie’s old beloved...

Ahem, more precisely, Han Junjie’s fiancée, Fairy Chenfei, Huaa Qingfei!

Compared to Han Junjie, Huaa Qingfei’s mentality was even worse.

Evidently, she held deep grudges against Su Han. Her gaze toward Su Han now was neither cold nor disdainful; rather, it was filled with... deep resentment!

Su Han himself didn’t even know how he had offended Huaa Qingfei to such an extent!

"Young Master Su?"

Huaa Qingfei gawked at Su Han, but what was once a beautiful face now seemed incredibly ugly to Su Han.

"Lord Han just asked you a question, why aren’t you answering? Is it because you can’t or you don’t dare?"

"If Young Master Su doesn’t know, it’s not surprising. After all, Young Master Su spends his time on the martial path, not understanding the Alchemy Dao is expected."

"But if Young Master Su knows and still doesn’t dare to answer... then I’d think it’s rather amusing!"

Blatant ridicule!

The mockery and scorn in her words were evident to anyone listening.

Originally, Su Han didn’t intend to sink to Han Junjie’s level, but at this moment, Huaa Qingfei’s words made Su Han’s expression turn cold.

He raised his gaze, fixing on Huaa Qingfei, and said indifferently, "What do you find amusing?"

Huaa Qingfei was taken aback, clearly not expecting Su Han to ask this.

She thought that Su Han, publicly ridiculed by her in front of so many people, would surely feel losing face and, in response, falsely claim expertise in the Alchemy Dao.

If that happened, Huaa Qingfei would have more words to continue mocking.

Nonetheless, her response was swift, and she immediately said, "Nine Shadows Young Master’s courage and soul power are well-known, yet he doesn’t even dare to speak; isn’t it amusing?"

"Which eye of yours sees me not daring to speak?" Su Han asked.

Huaa Qingfei’s expression turned cold, "Both my eyes saw it!"

"Tsk tsk."

Su Han shook his head with a sigh, "Then you must be blind..."
