Chapter 337 Ezra's Work
With Elder Rilda in the sky, no one dared to be disrespectful anymore, and all wandering whispers ended. The elder of Blood Slaughterer Peak came to be the witness of this quarter-match. "Begin!" Said the elder.
The most anticipated match was about to begin when a certain person raised his hand. "I have something to ask, Elder Rilda." Who it could be other than Ezra Zephyr.
Elder Rilda looked at the prince and nodded her head. "Speak."
The prince took a few steps ahead and looked at the three gold belt disciples from the imprint faction and said with a smile. "Elder, the winner of the match is determined by someone who shows better results, am I correct?"
"Yes you are, then?" Elder Rilda was sharp with words.
The prince continued as he turned his head to look at the pavilion in which Elder Song was present. "Am I allowed to compete with the work that I have been preparing for several weeks?"
Ruckus rose amongst the bystanders and a voice came from the pavilion. "No, you can not, it's against the rules!" Elder Song opposed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRight after Elder Song opposed, Elder Lo stood and opened his mouth "Oh, as far as my feeble brain works, there is nothing like that written in the rules. Precisely, the rule of the quarter match says 'The terms and conditions of the quarter match of Alchemic Rune Peak shall be decided by the Elder who would be sent to act as the arbiter.' According to the rule, Elder Rilda can decide the terms and conditions."
Elder Song gritted his teeth but couldn't do anything, he was puzzled today, he had set the table beforehand but everything that happened was out of his planning. He wanted to invite the elder from Blood Slaughterer Peak, the father of Ajin Pardo. But instead, the higher-ups sent Elder Rilda. Now he and the rest of the people were looking at Elder Rilda's decision.
"No, you have to perform here on this stage, anything that you have worked on before will be considered insignificant." Answered Elder Rilda.
Elder Song released a long sigh and smirked as he looked at Elder Lo. The latter was smiling as well, Elder Lo's calm attitude puzzled Elder Song.
"Elder Rilda, my work will affect the entire Spirit Devouring Mountain sect, not just outer mountains. Would you still not consider it?" The bold words of Ezra made a myriad of disciples gasp in surprise.
Just how massive was the whole sect, and a new gold belt disciple of the outer mountains of the most deprived peak was claiming that his work would affect the whole sect! Such blasphemous words can cause one his death.
Elder Rilda looked at Ezra with his eyes widened. "Are you aware of what you are saying?" Ezra smiled. "Yes, I am. But first, answer my question, Elder. Will you consider it in the quarter-match?"
Elder Rilda didn't even think for a second and answered. "Yes, if your work can positively affect the whole sect then I will declare you as winner without looking at their skills."
"Elder Rilda, this is unfair!" yelled Elder Song.
Elder Rilda looked at him with a side-eye. "You are allowed to seek an audience with Peak Masters, as for me… I'm not obliged to give you an answer."
The entire mass of people heard those words, Elder Song clenched his fists, he was not weaker than Elder Rilda in both martial prowess and status.
The prince said nothing more and his bracelet shone, in the next moment, a scroll of green colour and a small box appeared in his hand.
"Elder Rilda, our Spirit Devouring Mountain is currently very weak in the field of alchemy, We are acceptable in imprints but when compared to other 1st-degree sects, we are far from average. I have a goal – a goal to evolve Alchemic Rune Peak." He said and tossed the small box to Elder Rilda.
"This box contains two pills, the less shining one is the original Youth Refreshing Pill made by the formula of our sect, and the brighter pill is made from my formula, a new version. It has already been checked by Elder Lo, there is no harm in taking it." Explained the prince.
The elder of Colleen Evil Peak turned her gaze at Elder Lo who nodded in yes.
Elder Rilda didn't halt any more time and took the original pill, the results were something she was familiar with. Next, she consumed the improved version of the Youth Refreshing Pill.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe moment, she consumed it, she felt a gentle breeze hitting her body. She was glowing with vitality and the small wrinkles she had that affected her beauty vanished as if they were never there to begin with.
"This is…" Elder Rilda was lost for words.
"How can a mere Youth Refreshing Pill affect our sect, your claim has failed you, Ezra." Said Elder Song with nothing but remorse in his eyes.
Elder Rilda was taken aback by the pill but now she also regained her composure. "Elder Song is right, Ezra."
The prince shook his head. "Elder just imagine, what would happen if we concoct this version in bulk and send it to market? Especially Veiled Virgin Valley and Dragon Bone Pavilion?"
Elder Rilda's eyes widened. "How come I didn't think that way? We can sell it at the same price and when the demand increases we will limit our supply and set a higher price!"
"Exactly, Elder Rilda sure is smart." said Ezra as he clapped.
Veiled Virgin Valley is full of females, they care about their beauty as much as they care about martial prowess, They would definitely pay huge some to buy this new version.
As for Dragon Bone Pavilion, it's a powerful sect of body-strengthening martial masters. They bear countless tortures to refine their body, thus they lose beauty in the process. They would also fight to buy these limited pills in bulk.
