But that seems unlikely. How could a god possibly be interested in that rebellious disciple, Yao Bucai?
Feeling all eyes on him again, Zhang Yun felt inexplicably embarrassed, but his eyes were filled with disdain, and his voice exuded supreme authority.
"Foolish humans."
Actually, Zhang Yun was also a little confused.
He never expected that Yao Bucai's reputation in the world of sacred medicine would be so bad.
He's a god!
Of course, the gods are the most holy, noble, and pure in conduct!
That being said, as a god, protecting Yao Bucai would be perfectly legitimate; it would only take a word from him.
However, Zhang Yun came up with a plan from the bottom of his heart.
Let's just let this humble medicine suffer a little.
How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?
The entire venue erupted in cheers.
Given the god's disdainful attitude, it would be strange if he recognized Yao Bucai.
As a result, everyone present glared angrily at Yao Bucai, as if they would not rest until they glared him to death.
I knew it! How could someone like Yao Bucai, a disgrace to the world of alchemy, possibly catch the eye of the gods?
Do you think we're all idiots?
"You good-for-nothing Zhang, how dare you impersonate a god's underling! This is blasphemy against the gods, a grave offense of disrespect!"
"Offending the gods is a capital offense. I suggest that Yao Bucai be immediately hanged as a sign of justice!"
"Yes, the authority of the gods is sacred and inviolable. Even if Yao Bucai were to die ten thousand times, he could not atone for his sins!"
boom!
Zhang Yun's vehement denial struck Yao Bucai like a thunderbolt, his head buzzing, his face blank with shock, and he was on the verge of tears.
"My God... Heaven, have you forgotten that just a few days ago we hit it off immediately, felt like we'd known each other forever, and had a very pleasant conversation?"
"As you depart, I'm also giving you a pill that promises you to be handsome, dashing, and irresistibly charming!"
"Have the gods forgotten all of this?!"
Yao Bucai was unwilling to give up and tried his best to awaken Zhang Yun's memory.
Upon hearing about the so-called "male god pill," the white-robed elder's lips twitched violently, filled with disappointment and frustration, and he kicked Yao Bucai.
Immediately afterwards, Yao Bucai's figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string, forming a perfect parabola in the air, and finally crashed heavily to the ground, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
"You traitor, what a foolish traitor!"
"Today you have repeatedly offended the gods, and even I, your master, cannot save you!"
The old man in white robes was furious, but a hint of heartache flashed in his old eyes.
"To blaspheme against the gods is to violate divine law, a capital offense!"
Some people raised their arms and shouted, while the others were also filled with righteous indignation.
The gods are their faith!
"It's over, it's over, the gods don't remember me anymore, I'm doomed this time."
Yao Bucai was pale, his expression blank, and he looked utterly dejected and miserable.
That makes sense when you think about it. Gods are supreme beings, and they might not even manifest themselves once every few thousand years. How could they possibly care about someone as insignificant as him?
"Please, Gods, have mercy and spare that traitor's life."
Taking a deep breath, the white-robed elder pleaded with the celestial being.
No matter how unruly and useless Yao Bucai was, he was still his disciple, and he couldn't bear to see him suffer.
Despite being the vice president of the Alchemist Guild in Holy Medicine City, wielding immense power and enjoying widespread respect and support, he still lacked real confidence.
He was facing a legendary god.
In the eyes of the gods, even he was nothing more than a lowly ant.
Having held a high position for a long time, he deeply understood the meaning of "a person of low status with little influence."
"You are just a tiny ant, insignificant and not worth mentioning. Whether to kill it or not is up to you."
Zhang Yunfeng said calmly, but this very calmness, in the eyes of the world, revealed supreme arrogance and divine might.

Chapter 6 Three Trials
"Why don't you hurry up and thank the Heavenly God for his magnanimity?"
With a long sigh of relief, the white-robed elder quickly gave Yao Bucai a wink.
"Thank you, Lord God, for sparing my life!"
Upon hearing that he wouldn't die, Yao Bucai, who was in a turbid state, immediately became radiant and, in a flash, began to kowtow repeatedly to the celestial being atop the tower.
