Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 293: Chapter 151: A Punch That Shatters the Impenetrable Fortress of the World (Extra Chapter for Guild Master Yinhua Xiaomin!) _2

“As an outsider, I initially intended to cooperate with you all for mutual benefits, to explore the Great Dao Path together.”

“Yet, you have chosen to act unilaterally, engaging in mass slaughters that gave rise to widespread public outrage.”

“We, the Luo Tian Creed, inherit the legacy of the Broken Mountain Gang, and we ought to set an example.”

“But Elder Sikong Shoujia has been secretly assassinated by the villain Fu

Zhang, tragically resulting in his demise.”

“Now, we demand that the Fu Family returns the belongings of Sikong Shoujia within a certain timeframe so as to let him rest in peace.”

“If not, they will have to bear the consequences. Don’t say you weren’t warned!”

Upon hearing this straightforwardly summarized “letter,” Fu Zhang was beside himself with rage.

What do they mean by acting unilaterally? What widespread public outrage are they referring to?

How did the Family Head of the Fu Family become a villain?

How dare they demand the return of the belongings within a certain timeframe, threatening that we will otherwise face consequences?

“Don’t say you weren’t warned?”

“Haha, I really want to see how you will warn us!”

“Ignore it. If we return the items, doesn’t it mean we would be admitting to the

Fu Family’s wrong-doing?”

“Has this Dan Chenzi lived his entire life without killing anyone?”

“Come, let’s make a stand. The other families also have external members. The death of a rabbit saddens the fox, and when one’s lips are gone, the teeth are cold; they will not stand by idly.”

“Moreover, how can the Luo Tian Creed, a newly formed small power, dare to challenge my Fu Family!”

There was no response from the Fu Family to the scolding from the Luo Tian Creed.

This stubborn attitude even attracted the attention of many rogue cultivators.

Now, the Luo Tian Creed seems to be in a difficult position.

Didn’t you say you wanted the items returned within a certain timeframe?

Didn’t you say don’t say you weren’t warned?

If others are indifferent, are you just going to do nothing?

It was not only rogue cultivators who were masquerading the situation. Other forces, big and small, were watching in secret too.

The head of the Luo Tian Creed, Dan Chenzi, stood outside a tower of the Sword Pavilion with a calm expression.

The external sect disciples of the Yu Ding who passed by him occasionally shot puzzled glances his way.

He had been waiting there for an entire morning.

Was Miao Wen, the Steward, not available? Or perhaps, was he being punished?

After a long while, a cold snort came from within the tower.

“Only this once, there will be no next time!”

“Focus on pill refinement from now on, avoid stirring up trouble.”

Luo Chen smiled faintly, replying with a simple “Yes,” before turning to leave the Sword Pavilion.

After he stepped out of the Sword Pavilion, he let out a long sigh of relief.

The issue was never really about dealing with the Fu Family.

The key was Miao Wen’s side.

Luo Chen had his own reasons too.

The collapse of the Broken Mountain Gang meant that his sales channels for elixirs were almost all gone. He also couldn’t blatantly use Miao Wen’s name. Even if he did refine the Jade Marrow Pills, it would not be easy to sell them. That’s why he needed to establish his power and make sure that no one could ignore the Luo Tian Creed.

Indeed, this justification was plausible.

However, it was not exactly solid.

But when Luo Chen presented the large number of Jade Marrow Pills he refined this month, along with those previously refined for Mi Shuhua, Miao Wen finally approved of his “eccentric behavior.”

“Greed can indeed sway hearts!”

Luo Chen chuckled lightly, then left the Inner City with a carefree attitude.

Where there was a first time, there would be countless more.

As his interests became more and more closely tied with Miao Wen, his importance would continue to increase.

By then, with the rise of Luo Tian Creed, Miao Wen would have no choice but to heed his opinions.

All Luo Chen needed to do was simply repeat what he did for Mi Shuhua.

To achieve an equal standing with Miao Wen.

Then, he would pursue foundation establishment and take control of his own destiny.

“So, we must win the upcoming battle!”

“And win it spectacularly!”

Without hesitation, with the Fu Family burying their heads in the sand, Luo Tian Creed Battle Hall, a newly minted war machine, started to rumble into action.

A few people were assigned to keep an eye on the other four major families.

The entire Battle Hall, led by Wang Yuan, set off for the Fu Family Wu Fort at noon on the ninth day of the ninth month of the Mountain Sea year 3408.

The two great elders, Duan Feng and Sima Xian, were the vanguards, each leading ten experts in the middle and late stages of Qi refinement.

In addition, Luo Chen also reassigned Merits Hall Steward Sima Wenjie and Golden Hall Elder Zeng Wen, creating a formation with five Ninth Level Qi Refinement experts.

Not only that, Qin Liangchen, who had been recuperating for a month, made his first appearance.

He stood beside Luo Chen along with Wang Yuan.

This overt act naturally attracted the attention of countless rogue cultivators within The Great River District.

As the Battle Hall Cultivators of Luo Tian Creed rushed to the Fu Family Wu Fort, many rogue cultivators followed behind on their Glints.

Looking down from a very high vantage point, it created an illusion of a massive tide of cultivator soldiers.

When Luo Chen leisurely arrived outside the enormous Wu Fort, the Cultivators of the Fu Family were already prepared for battle.

“Dan Chenzi!”

A stern shout echoed through the heavens.

Fu Zhang, holding a golden hammer, flew out of the watchtower of the Wu Fort.

His sharp eyes, filled with rage, were firmly fixed upon the young man in the “army” of Cultivators.

“Head of the Fu Family, I trust you’ve been well!”

Luo Chen greeted, gently waving his jade fan.

Looking at Luo Chen, Fu Zhang struggled to suppress the anger in his heart.

He knew very well that the number of cultivators in the Luo Tian Creed was not extensive.

The reason there were thousands of rogue cultivators outside the Wu Fort at this moment was that most of them were here to enjoy the spectacle.

But a “spectacle” could easily lead to a major incident.

If the Fu Family showed even a hint of weakness, it was likely that someone would harbor ill intentions, leading to a situation where everyone kicks a man when he is down.

By this point, he vaguely realized that perhaps the rumor of the “Blood Talisman” was not spread by the Chen Family and the Shen Fu Pavilion after all.

Instead, it was most likely orchestrated by the young man standing before him.

Today, the Fu Family, if they can avoid fighting, would choose not to.

He took a deep breath and said in a slightly moderating tone, “We’re all on the road to cultivation within The Great River District, is there really a need for such a full-scale mobilization?”
