"Did you hear? The Gray Rat Alchemist was attacked and injured while traveling outside the Marketplace."
"The Gray Rat Alchemist! You mean that Quasi-second-rank Alchemist from the Marketplace!?"
"That's the one. Besides him, who else in this Lujiao Mountain Marketplace is worthy of the title 'Pill Master'!
I hear the Gray Rat Alchemist has been in the Marketplace for years without ever leaving. The one time he finally goes out, he gets attacked and injured!"
"Who did it!? Isn't the Lujiao Mountain Marketplace going to do anything about it!?"
"Of course they are. How could they not? The Gray Rat Alchemist is the Marketplace's living signboard. If he gets hurt, it's a huge deal.
It's just that the ones who attacked the Gray Rat Alchemist were a secretive Robbery Cultivation Gang. I heard an Old Demon at the Qi Refining Eighth Layer was even involved."
"The Marketplace investigated, but they didn't find any clues."
