Hou Zhongyu's eyes nearly bled.
This furnace of Eternal Moon had been passed down from his teacher, who had betrayed his own master. Because of this treasure medicine, he had killed his own teacher. The inheritance among alchemists was difficult, mostly for this reason.
At this moment, his heart was like being cut with knives, and his scream sounded as eerie as an owl:
"This medicine has been tempered for a full eighty years!"
"Eighty years, just a few months shy of the solar number of ninety-nine and eighty-one years."
"Just lacking the Mountain Marrow of South Mountain, just a few months, I killed you, I killed you!!!"
Li Guanyi staggered backwards, dropping the bronze tripod to the ground.
Seeing a little residue still left inside, Hou Zhongyu wished he could dive in and consume every last bit. Noticing Li Guanyi's skin rapidly reddening, Hou Zhongyu felt boundless killing intent mixed with envy and jealousy, along with an indescribable emotion.
