Chapter 545 Words Cut Like Knives! _1

"Do you know where you lost?"

The tone of Zhou Yuan's voice remained calm, and Gu He's reaction was all within expectations.

If he hadn't been sure of himself, why would he have sought him out?

Sure enough, upon hearing these words, a sharp glint suddenly flickered in Gu He's eyes: "Where exactly did I lose?"

He had thought about this question for a long time but still couldn't understand it.

"You lost to arrogance, to complacency, and even more so, to those flatteries!"

Zhou Yuan's tone became more intense: "You've listened to those foolish praises until you naturally saw yourself as Lieyang Town's top alchemist, unaware of the principle that there are heavens beyond this heaven, people beyond these people!"

As each of Zhou Yuan's resounding words fell, they seemed to transform into sharp blades, piercing directly through Gu He's inner defenses.

The emotions of frustration, panic, and regret, coupled with the numbness from the alcohol, made him collapse to the floor.
