Lin Feng ignored the growing commotion. His eyes never left Gao Shan.
A faint smile appeared on his face, but there was not the slightest warmth behind it.
Instead, it felt like the smile of a judge preparing to announce a sentence.
"Tell me, Pill Master Gao Shan."
"Are you perhaps in cahoots with that wicked man?"
The entire marketplace instantly fell silent. One could hear a pin drop. No one had expected such a direct accusation.
Accusing a respected pill master of secretly cooperating with a criminal was no small matter.
Yet after everything that had happened today, no one dared dismiss Lin Feng's words outright.
After all, this was the same man who had exposed the pill merchant's scheme and whose treasure had effortlessly erased a Spirit Severing Realm expert from existence.
If anyone present had the right to make such a claim, it was him. Now countless eyes turned toward Gao Shan, waiting for his response.
"Ridiculous!"
