Chapter 203 Young Elder
Nightfall.
When they got back to the inn, they cleaned up, took a rest, and went down to the dining area for dinner.
"So, we will leave and get back to the sect tomorrow?" Guo He Ru asked as he munched on a dumpling.
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I intend to find the guild master tomorrow. I want the Golden Core Ascension Pill. And if possible, we might be able to get a worthy partner to supply your herbs."
"Really?" Guo He Ru's eyes opened wide at the possibility of getting the guild master as a supplier.
"We shall see," Lin Fan said and sipped his tea as he watched what was going on in the dining area.
Diners were chattering about what happened during the day as usual.
"Have you heard? The guild master has increased the reward."
"Hmm. If only I could get my hands on some Dragon's Tail Grass now."
"I bet you the lucky bastards who had the Dragon's Tail Grass would be settled for life."
Everyone was envious of whoever got the rewards.
But they couldn't do much, as even the guild members went searching in full strength and weren't able to find any Dragon's Tail Grass.
Lin Fan smiled at the good news for him.
It was one of the best, most delicious meals he'd had in a long time.
When the waiter walked past, Lin Fan stopped him and asked, "Do you know where to find the guild master?"
"The guild master? It's right down the street, and you can see a luxurious building," the waiter replied with a worried look as his brows furrowed.
These newcomers must be thinking of using fake herbs to try and get the rewards, he thought.
The waiter wanted to warn Lin Fan that a few had been sentenced to death for this and he'd better not try.@@@@
However, the other patrons heard Lin Fan.
They shook their heads and whispered among themselves.
"Do you know them? They look like someone new to the trade."
"No one had seen them before."
"So, these amateurs think they have the Dragon's Tail Grass?"
"I bet you they must have mistaken the Feather Grass for the Dragon's Tail Grass."
"Shall we warn them?"
"No, what's the fun in that. We shall have a show to watch tomorrow."
The diners were anticipating a show to watch when Lin Fan gets into trouble with his fake herb tomorrow.
However, it didn't achieve what he wanted.
"I guess liars have no shame."
"These two poor fellows being swindled so badly."
"Huh. Never in my life did I think I would see someone so shameless."
The crowd was now laughing hysterically at his claims.

"Wait? Why are you laughing? What I said is true!"
Guo He Ru was exasperated at the situation.
Lin Fan shook his head and glanced over at Ho Ming.
Ho Ming took his cue and drew out his sword.
"What are you doing?" the guards shouted.
"Just showing how wrong they are," Ho Ming said as he thrust his sword into the sky.
A twirling wind shot at the sky subsequently.
"The Twirling Wind Strike!"
The crowd gasped as they saw the twirling wind.
This strike is a signature move from the Qing Feng Sect.
That means the claim of Guo He Ru being from Qing Feng Sect might be true.
All of them turned quiet at the realization.
Lin Fan patted Guo He Ru's back again and said, "See, more action than talk. It always works better."
Guo He Ru sighed and took his lesson.
He had better rein in some of his boisterous nature to survive outside his alchemy lab.
"Hurry up if you have got the Dragon's Tail Grass. We don't have the whole day."
By now, the guards were impatient with the commotion going on.
The crowd watched intensely as they watched Lin Fan's next move.
Do they really have the Dragon's Tail Grass? They wondered.
"What's happening?" an old man said, and everyone looked at the old man.
"It's him!"
