”Where is he?”

Jiang Chen asked about Jiang Xuan’s whereabouts.

At that moment, Jiang Ling suddenly fell silent.

She knew where Jiang Xuan had gone, but she was powerless to do anything about it.

Even the Jiang Family was helpless.

Jiang Xuan had indeed gone to the City Lord’s Mansion, and he wasn’t coming back.

Jiang Ling didn’t speak right away. She didn’t know what this young master would do.

Because this young master was definitely someone who couldn’t control his temper.

If he went and caused trouble for the young master of the City Lord’s Mansion, it would bring great harm to the Jiang Family.

After some thought, she ultimately decided to remain silent.

Seeing Jiang Ling’s hesitation, Jiang Chen’s brow furrowed.

He said unhappily, ”What? What happened to him?”

”You’re hesitating. Is something wrong?”

Jiang Ling quickly shook her head, denying it.

”Nothing’s wrong, nothing at all. Jiang Xuan went out to travel. He probably won’t be back for a while.”

Having no choice, she hid the truth from Jiang Chen.

After all, the Jiang Family didn’t want to blow this matter out of proportion.

And she, Jiang Ling, certainly couldn’t tell Jiang Chen the truth.

Jiang Chen’s expression darkened.

How could he not see that Jiang Ling’s gaze was evasive as she spoke?

There was clearly a problem, yet she was hiding it from him.

As far as Jiang Chen was concerned, any matter of the Jiang Family was his matter.

Besides, he was the one who had brought Jiang Xuan up. Anyone who dared to act against Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling was provoking him, Jiang Chen.

He just wasn’t clear on the situation yet.

He looked at Jiang Ling, annoyed, and said loudly, ”Tell me the truth.”

”Now!”

He was furious. Knowing there was a problem, Jiang Chen was determined to make her tell the truth, even if he had to force it out of her.

His face was stone-cold and extremely serious.

Seeing Jiang Chen like this, Jiang Ling felt a little scared.

It could be said that Jiang Chen had guided them onto the path of an Alchemist, and his mentorship was a debt as heavy as a mountain.

Both Jiang Ling and Jiang Xuan were filled with awe and respect for Jiang Chen.

In their hearts, Jiang Chen’s status was far higher than that of the Patriarch, Jiang Han.

Faced with Jiang Chen’s stern and imposing gaze,

Jiang Ling’s heart was pounding with anxiety.

She was terrified.

Finally, with no other choice, she gritted her teeth.

She spoke up. ”Young Master, Jiang Xuan... he...”

”He was taken away by Wen Bufan of the City Lord’s Mansion and has never come back.”

Although she didn’t know the specific details, Jiang Ling knew the gist of it: Jiang Xuan had been forced to go with Wen Bufan to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Jiang Chen’s brow furrowed again.

The City Lord’s Mansion, Wen Bufan—he knew of them.

When it came to the number one silkpants in Hanwu City, it was naturally Wen Bufan.

He had taken Jiang Xuan.

”Alright, I understand. You can continue with your alchemy.”

Jiang Chen hadn’t gotten a detailed account from Jiang Ling, only that Jiang Xuan had been taken by Wen Bufan.

As he spoke, he turned to leave.

But Jiang Ling suddenly spoke up.

”Young Master, don’t go provoking the City Lord’s Mansion.”

”For the sake of our Jiang Family.”

”Doesn’t the Jiang Family still have me?”

She tried to dissuade Jiang Chen.

She was worried that if Jiang Chen acted rashly and antagonized the people from the City Lord’s Mansion, it would mean big trouble.

”Heh...”

Jiang Chen just gave Jiang Ling a single word, then left without a backward glance.

Hearing that sound from Jiang Chen, Jiang Ling instinctively felt a chill run down her spine.

’The Young Master’s laugh was a little strange. Is he about to cause a huge scene?’

Although she also wanted Jiang Xuan to return, doing so would inevitably mean provoking the City Lord’s Mansion.

Jiang Chen sneered inwardly.

He didn’t know the exact details, but to be able to take Jiang Xuan away, they must have threatened him.

Jiang Xuan definitely didn’t go of his own free will; he was very clear on Jiang Xuan’s character.

’The City Lord’s Mansion, huh.’

Jiang Chen rubbed his hands together and, as he walked, glanced up at the sky.

The weather was nice today, the sky as clear as if it had been washed.

His mood, however, was not so beautiful.

It was covered in dark clouds.

”Dad, how did Jiang Xuan end up at the City Lord’s Mansion?”

Jiang Chen found his father. As the Patriarch, he would surely know about these things.

Sure enough, Jiang Han’s expression faltered slightly.

Instead, he asked, ”What are you looking for him for?”

”He went to the City Lord’s Mansion, and that’s that.”

Jiang Chen was a little surprised to have his father turn the question back on him.

Then, he fell into thought.

He understood in an instant. In his father’s position, everything had to be considered from the perspective of the Jiang Family.

He didn’t want to fall out with the City Lord’s Mansion.

Falling out with the City Lord’s Mansion would bring no benefit to the Jiang Family.

”Blindly giving in will only make our enemies more brazen.”

”And our Jiang Family will not lose a single person!”

Jiang Chen could feel the immense pressure his father was under.

But he still said his piece, then asked no more questions and turned to leave.

Jiang Han looked at his son, somewhat astonished.

This son of his had never been one for forbearance. No, his forbearance was something others couldn’t comprehend.

He had been afraid that if he told him, Jiang Chen would start a fight with the City Lord’s Mansion again, which would be very disadvantageous for the Jiang Family.

Then, he took a deep breath.

Only then did Jiang Han reveal the truth.

”Since you want to know, there’s no harm in telling you.”

”The City Lord’s Mansion wanted to recruit an Alchemist from our Jiang Family. In the end, Wen Bufan came and took Jiang Xuan away.”

”Now, he might never be able to come back.”

Jiang Chen finally understood. So, they had taken a fancy to Jiang Xuan’s Alchemy Skill and forcibly taken him away.

And they’d taken him right from the Jiang Family estate.

This could only have happened while he was away.

If Jiang Chen had been there, he would have slapped that Wen Bufan to death.

”When the tiger is not in the mountain, the monkey proclaims itself king.”

”Very good.”

Hearing his son muttering to himself, Jiang Han’s face changed.

’This kid is going to cause big trouble again.’

He quickly tried to dissuade him, ”Son, this time, you absolutely must not go looking for the City Lord’s Mansion. Jiang Xuan is gone, and that’s that. We still have Jiang Ling.”

”If you’re truly thinking of the Jiang Family, then listen to your father and don’t provoke the City Lord’s Mansion.”

As a father, he was earnestly trying to talk his son out of it.

Only he knew what kind of character his son was.

If he could poke a hole in the heavens, he would never be satisfied with just one poke.

Jiang Chen knew his father was in a difficult position.

He didn’t want to make his father worry.

He nodded. ”Dad, I understand.”

”I won’t do anything rash.”

”I’m leaving now.”

After saying that, he bid his father farewell and turned to leave.

Jiang Han was still worried, so he immediately had someone tail Jiang Chen. If Jiang Chen headed for the City Lord’s Mansion, they were to stop him at once.

The matter was too important to be careless.

However, Jiang Chen had no intention of going to the City Lord’s Mansion at all.

Instead, he made a trip to the Alchemist Guild.

Jiang Chen’s return made the faces of certain people in the Alchemist Guild turn ugly.

In a secret chamber, Shen Mi and Qiu Baxiong, the two Vice Presidents of the Alchemist Guild, gathered once again.

Shen Mi cursed, ”Damn it, that bastard didn’t die.”

Qiu Baxiong’s expression was also incomparably grim.

”Our assassins actually failed to kill him?”

”Instead, he killed our assassins.”

”For the past three days, I thought he was dead.”

”What do we do? Are we just going to let him sit so peacefully in the position of President of the Alchemist Guild?”

Shen Mi was silent for a long time before finally waving his hand and saying, ”Stop the assassination attempts on Jiang Chen for now. Otherwise, he’ll definitely figure out we’re the ones behind it.”

”For the time being, let’s act like nothing happened and let him be the President for a few days.”

The two conspired in secret once more and decided to hold off for the time being.
