LMOU: The Return of the Legend

Called to the office

A few minutes passed.

Currently, the participants are out of focus. How not, seeing Qin Yan throw away one of the ingredients made their hearts ask. What's wrong with this kid's brain. Why did he throw away a material that looked quite rare, it was tantamount to not appreciating the elder who was watching over them.

Until the end, because of their focuslessness. They failed to process the materials that were inside the furnace.

'It seemed, the kid's actions were making serious trouble for the other participants. I have to admit, that kid is pretty sneaky.' Inner president of the association calmly. He also glanced at the participants who were quite different from ordinary participants.

'Zhou Zue er, Zhou Zun er, Zhou Ling er, Mong yi, Tang Xinglian, Rong Gui. Although their attention was not distracted, yet....'

Moments after he muttered, the geniuses mentioned by the president met their failure. Their furnaces exploded emitting black smoke. But none of them gave up. They started the milling from the beginning.

'No one noticed it. But the boy...... Who is he really?' Now, all the attention of the elder and supervisor was on Qin Yan. The boy casually distilled, even though in the eyes of the elders the way was a bit unreasonable.

"What the hell is this!!!! Chai Li's. Are you sure? He was the kid who completed the challenge yesterday within ten minutes?" Asked the old granny with the veins that had swelled up on her forehead.

"Yes, senior. That was him. He finished the Competition quickly using the same technique.!" The elder beside him replied with a bit of fear.

"What!! That's not possible. Putting all the ingredients together at the same time is a fatal way. Throughout history, this method is not worth using. That'll make his furnace explode instantly?" Old grandma still can't believe it. He was a legend in the world of Alchemis, never heard of any way to put all the ingredients together at the same time. It was notoriously fatal, and he said only a moron would do that. But now, in front of his eyes. A boy showed me the impossible.

'Uh....' The grandmother immediately had a headache when she thought about it.

"Teacher, but.. didn't he say that such a careless way could blow up a furnace? But, why is the furnace still okay?" Ask the female president beside her right. Undeniably, all the elders were also very confused including him. Therefore, the elders directly summoned an alchemist legend to confirm this. However, who would have thought that even the legend did not know. This made them realize. Apparently, there is still sky above. On top of the mountain there was still a higher mountain. Even a legend was defeated by a child they did not know his background.

This is a new science that they get after years of high degrees in the world of Alchemist.

It's just, for a legend. Their self-esteem is very high. They will not easily admit defeat to others especially when they realize that a child is smarter than them. Therefore, he still denied the words of his disciple.

"It's still too fast. The time is long, look good. The longer the refining time, the stronger the pressure of the materials present in the furnace. Moreover, the material materials were mixed together at the same time, it was impossible for them to put it together. Therefore, the ingredients must be gradually incorporated in order to unite them to be younger." The grandmother explained at length, while showing how vast the science in the world of distillation. Let alone seeing them all nod, making him even more confident. And reject the way used by the masked man, and assume that the boy has used a stupid way. Of course he will make the masked child lose his pride if he fails.

For a moment, the grandmother was still caught up in her own evil plan. Until finally he and all the elders smelled something familiar.

'This smell....!!' Inner them with a sniffing nose.

'Steel formation!!' After noticing the smell, their eyes immediately opened. They looked for where the smell came from. And that, came from the masked boy.

'I-this....!! No way!! That fast!!!!' Not only were they shocked, even the participants were not out of thought either. Compared to reaching the formation, even they could not figure out how to deal with the explosion of their furnace.

Until finally, there was someone who realized the awkwardness. A girl who was beside Qin Yan. In any case, the girl looked familiar and of course Qin Yan knew her.

Xu Jiu Jiu who was from Fei Li kingdom, observed the way Qin Yan performed. Realizing that Qin Yan threw away one ingredient, made her suspicious. Finally he took a new step. Distill without using Red lava Mushroom.

And finally, the results he got were quite surprising. The furnace and the materials inside have no reaction. As always, as the way of distillation. With the circumstances that suddenly change. The girl continued her refining with a confident smile.

Changing the situation of the participant beside him. Xu mi er who was near Xu Jiu Jiu followed her sister's steps. The same thing happened to the man beside her, then beside her, beside her and near her. Until finally, all participants know the secret behind this competition.

The elders were made dumbfounded instantly, let alone the old grandmother. It feels like going crazy, it all started with the masked boy. However, anyhow. You could say, all participants managed to solve the problem he made. Not as a trap, but as a challenge in refining these participants.

"Haish...." The grandmother simply breathed helplessly.

"Well, anyhow. This kid has successfully completed their challenge." Mumbled. Although it was quite short, but he got something new. He had to investigate the boy at all costs.

"Oh!!" All the elders raised their faces. Qin Yan's furnace glowed. All participants turned around. Qin Yan pulled out a bright pill from within his furnace.

Qin Yan let out a light sigh, then walked up from his desk. He also went on stage. Where the supervisors are.

Right in front of the president, Qin Yan placed the pill.

The beautiful woman in front of him only looked at Qin Yan with a look of disbelief. For quite a while he looked at her, yet Qin Yan did not return his gaze at all.

In just ten minutes, Qin Yan finished his refining. Even that made the grandmother quite dumbfounded.

But Qin Yan was just acting ordinary, not a single word came out of his mouth. Just bowing respectfully. Then I'm about to leave.

"Wait!!" But the grandmother and the president of the association stopped him simultaneously.

Realizing that the master was acting, the woman sat back down with a slight hesitation. His face flushed slightly but it only lasted for a moment. After that, he calmed down as usual.

"After the competition is over, come to my room." Grandma said seriously. Qin Yan simply nodded slowly, then left the area.

Right on the page, Qin Yan sat on one of the seats that had been specially reserved by the maids.

The success that Qin Yan experienced today, automatically attracted the attention of many people. In fact, not a few girls or women come to talk to him. However, compared to Zue er, Zun er, or the girl Qin Yan had known all along. They have nothing. Therefore, even though they did various ways to feel Qin Yan's perverted touch, it never worked.

Unlike the other Alchemists, it was usually a man, both old and young. They will always be surrounded by happy women. That's because they use status as a way to attract the attention of the women they pay for.

However, it was precisely the women who were quite irritated by Qin Yan's indifferent attitude. They ignored the exhaustion, Qin Yan's cold and indifferent attitude. Makes them more itchy. They were very curious about Qin Yan's true figure.

An hour passed, Qin Yan waited silently. Although he was bored, he did not want to do anything. On the other hand, he was unaware. The president of the association silently silently stared at him from a distance.

Until finally, the first player came out. It was Zhou Zueer, the girl who looked indifferent. Even when he saw Qin Yan, he remained as usual. Although this time, his gaze was rather sharp and curious. However, he kept his attitude.

After him, the other participants started to come out. Usually, they will sort when they come out and occupy positions to distinguish potential depending on speed.

Like Qin Yan, he occupied the first position. In their eyes, Qin Yan was like an extremely powerful opponent for being the fastest in this refining.

As for the second and the third or so on, everyone would still remember their names. They even named them as the 10 highest participants. Although it is not legally counted in the eyes of the elders, but for fellow participants. Intentionally or not, they would still apply such a thing. That's natural, because they have a nature of competing with each other.

'Huft....!! Shit, why am I seventh? Why am I this late?' Tang Xinglian came out with a lethargic face. He passed by a group of gossipers, and they were discussing about the rank order.

"The second recruit, Zhou Zun er, then Zhou Ling er, Rong gui, Mong yi, Gu Yimbing, Tang Xinglian, Xu Jiu Jiu, Xu mi er and lastly, Riu Yen."

"Voaah..... There seems to be some change of position in the competition this time." Shouted one of the gossipers in admiration.

"Of course, I was even in 15th place, I defeated the opponents who were above me in the competition yesterday."

"Curtain, you're just lucky. Being near a masked man."

"Haha.... You're right, if there's no him. Where could I possibly succeed in this distillery. Let alone getting a pretty high order." The gossipmist laughed proudly, but while Tang Xinglian was just clenching her hands in annoyance. His eyes glanced at where Qin Yan was.

'That's her! The one who ruined my life. For some reason, I'm starting to hate everyone who has a mask on their face.' The girl then headed towards the direction where Qin Yan was sitting. Since last night, after being defeated by masked men in an underground fight. He began to get depressed with the downturn he was experiencing. The position and position that he had fought for in order to get the award of people now collapsed instantly due to losing to that person. And now, again the masked man messed up his life's dream.

He was getting sick of seeing this masked creature.

"Hey you!" Call Tang Xinglian impolitely, she stood in front of Qin Yan with both hands above her waist.

Qin Yan looked up for a moment, looking at the girl who made him sick. He looked there, as if looking for the name the girl called.

"You're the one I'm calling, you idiot!" This time the girl's tone of call seemed upset.

"Yes. What's up?" Qin Yan replied calmly.

The girl then crossed her chest.

Qin Yan was immediately confused by the words of this girl. Since when did he look for a cause with this unreasonable girl. But he understood, this girl tried to vent all her frustration and wanted to humiliate Qin Yan in public for no reason. Therefore, Qin Yan asked directly to the point.

"What do you want?" Qin Yan asked coldly.

"uh? Who do you think you can ask that. Don't think just because you're in the first position you can......"

"Say what you want!!!" Qin Yan directly hit the table hard. His sharp gaze behind the mask pierced through the girl's eyes.

"I don't have time to serve a senseless girl like you who doesn't pay attention to ethics. It's so good that you disturb the peace of others."

Tang Xinglian who heard that immediately fell silent. Not out of fear, he was getting upset about it. He gritted his teeth hatefully.

"I challenge you to fight with me!!" Shouted the girl.

"Oh, so so. Try saying that from earlier." Qin Yan replied who understood. The girl went back into silence while holding back her anger from exploding. But, that made him even more upset. Qin Yan did not move from his seat at all.

"What are you doing there! Get up and we'll fight right now!" Shouted the girl again.

Qin Yan just looked at him calmly.

"I'm not interested." Answer then.

"What!!!" Of course it instantly made the girl fixated with big eyes. It's the greatest humiliation of his life.

"What did you say?" This time the girl's speech was so slow, yet her face was already pitch black. Countless of how much anger he was feeling in this.

Qin Yan who saw that only sighed softly.

"If you do something, you have to pay attention to the situation. I am waiting for the president who called me. You think the problem will be light after I ignore it just because I accepted your useless request.?"

Tang Xinglian fell silent again for a moment. His anger that he had been sniffing immediately disappeared. He looked at Qin Yan in confusion. Not long after that one of the servants came.

"Master, the president's waiting for you inside. Allow me to drive you."

After that, Qin Yan stood up. Then he followed the waiter. Passing Tang Xinglian just like that. Everyone who witnessed it was just trying to hold back a laugh. The reckless actions that the haughty girl had done had humiliated you herself.

Instead of making that a lesson, Tang Xinglian even grew angry. He looked at Qin Yan's back and locked the child in order to become the opponent he would have to defeat in the future.

"I'll beat you one day. This humiliation I will reply many times." Said with a fury.

Qin Yan was also aware of the hatred of the girl. But he just smiled wryly. Because of high self-esteem, making someone forget about manners, politeness, and humanity. They will always look down on others and consider themselves the highest. They are even very sensitive to the nature of the people around them. Therefore, such a person would regard someone as an enemy, if they acted against their will.

Qin Yan only hoped that such a person would not be included in the nature of his friend.

When Qin Yan walked towards the room, unexpectedly. Someone he knew was waiting for him on the way.

He is Mong yi, the boy is leaning against the wall. It seemed to have been waiting for his arrival to pass through this path.

"You're the first one to finish the distillery, right?" Ask the man. He then held Qin Yan's shoulders with their opposing directions.

"I'm quite impressed with you. You're a worthy opponent for me. If you don't mind, meet me at the back of this association building after your business is done." After which, the man immediately left in such an arrogant style.

Qin Yan was speechless hearing the child's words. Not long after, he laughed. Fortunately, Mong Yi did not hear it. If not, maybe another problem will also occur this time.

'Pppfft.... Impressed? Appropriate? Hahah. I was told like that by a snot boy who was acting strong-witted. Why are there insects who are unaware of their position in this world. Such a person is just annoying.' Qin Yan only considered the child's words as a joke. He is sick of seeing the arrogant behavior of people he does not consider to be worthy opponents. Therefore, he followed the servant back to the president's room.

Meanwhile, Mong yi who was walking so arrogantly could only hold his hatred in his heart. He clenched his hands with a shivering body.

'Why? Though the master has told me the leak of this competition. But why am I still in such a distant order. Why is there always someone in front of me. Everything was prepared carefully.' Mong yi stood on the spot for quite a while with a grit of his teeth. His eyes grew bigger because he felt unfair about all this.

"Wah wow. Isn't this Mong yi? Ranked 5th out of 10 heavenly geniuses." Suddenly a man came to him with two men behind.

"You're still slow well even after your master told you about this competition." The boy's smile was full of ridicule.

"What do you want Rong gui?" Mong yi asked with a cold face.

Rong gui, a rank 8 heavenly genius. Although the rank had a difference that was far from Mong yi, their difference in strength was completely indistinguishable. He was also a child raised in the Vermillion Valley sect. Therefore, his arrogant sense was also not inferior to Mong yi who was from the Poison sect.

"Do you want to fight?" Ask Mong Yi again.

"No no, I'm not asking you to fight. Sometimes treat me politely, I'm not as bad as you think." Rong gui shook his head with both of his hands raised. However, Mong yi's reaction remained the same.

"I know your true nature? tell me what you want? You must have other intentions to see me, right?" Ask Mong yi again.

"Yes yes. You are right. But, judging from your sickening attitude, it's enough to upset Mong yi. Honestly, I don't like it. But, instead of looking for an enemy with you. We better work together."

Mong Yi was stunned listening to the man's words. Cooperating? Working together for what?

"What do you really want so we have to work together?"

"Well, you should know. The masked boy is enough to make us trouble even if we get a leak."

"So, you want us to take care of it? What if he also came from another sect?" Mong Yi asked again after he began to understand this man's plan.

"I didn't think that far. But, my master said. Whoever stands in your way, just destroy it. So, instead of us competing with him, we better work together to kill him. Hows it? You agree not?"

'This brat is sneaky, he could have framed me too.' Mong yi immediately thought seriously when he heard the boy's plan.

Seeing that the man looked doubtful, Rong Gui became a little annoyed. But he only smiled faintly as he drew closer to Mong yi's lowered face.

"Mong Yi, I heard you're in trouble. Your entire members entered the hospital for wanting to kill Qin Yan's group, hahaha.... It's funny, that's the lesson for daring to challenge someone who's nothing like you."

"Don't talk about the past if you don't want to die!!!" Mong Yi was instantly emotional hearing the child's provocation. He lifted the collar of Rong gui's shirt and lifted it up.

"Oh, Mong yi's. Don't tell me, because of the fall you're being stupid like this. Don't you think, if you don't get good results in this competition, is your master still paying attention to you? Think well, if the barrier is still there. Do you think you can be top? That kid was able to beat you even though you were given a leak. Think carefully about how disappointed your master is if you find out that you failed. You'll be rendered useless in his eyes."

Mong Yi instantly fell silent once more, he slowly lowered Rong gui. Honestly, this guy's word has a point. Even though he knew that this kid was trying to manipulate him. But, the most important thing right now was to get the best so that the master would pay attention back. He did not want to disappoint his master anymore.

After thinking it well either way, Mong yi finally let go of his hand that grasped the collar of the boy's shirt. He closed his eyes and took a long breath. He has considered everything.

"So, what's your plan?" Ask.

A wide smile emanated on Rong gui's face. He approached and whispered in his ear.

"Don't you just say you were waiting for him in the back of the building."

Mong Yi nodded hearing that. Then Rong gui continued.

"We ambush and kill him there. Take it easy, we have to do this as well as possible to make it look like an accident. Therefore, I have a pretty decent plan. Wanna hear?"
