Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 351: Chapter 170: Misfortunes Diverted East, Foundation Establishment of Divine Soul_3

Having someone to make decisions is perhaps the best outcome.

Gu Caiyi nodded at Luo Chen, then quickly turned around and left.

At this moment, only Luo Chen and Nangong Qin were left in the hall.

Looking at the other party, Luo Chen smiled and said, ”Friend Nangong, it’s nice to see you well!”

Nangong Qin forced a smile, he was about to speak but then was caught in a fit of severe coughing.

Cough, cough, cough...

After the severe coughing, he finally said with bitterness, ”I am afraid I have embarrassed myself before Chief Luo.”

Luo Chen shook his head, ”You managed to lead people into the Ghost City and even managed to escape from a Ghost General. That is something I respect, there’s no mockery involved.”

Then, he curiously asked, ”So, what’s the situation inside the Ghost City?”

Now he found himself in need of help, and the attitude of the other party was quite good.

Furthermore, the scandal from a while back had already spread all over The Great River District.

Nangong Qin, having no reason to hide anything, sighed and elaborated on the situation of the Ghost City.

The two talked for a long time, and it was not until Gu Caiyi brought all the Jade Marrow Pills that Nangong Qin finally excused himself and left.

Luo Chen personally escorted him to the main gate.

Watching the cultivator from the Nangong family take the Glint and hurriedly leave.

Luo Chen softly said, ”It seems that the Nangong family is in need of recovery.”

”Recovery?” Gu Caiyi was puzzled, ”But didn’t they just acquire several territories from the Broken Mountain Gang?”

”No matter how many territories you have, you still need people to operate them!”

What the Nangong family lacks the most at the moment is people!

Luo Chen smiled, and said no more.

The Nangong family was originally a migrant family.

They were not thriving in the Xuelian District and, coincidentally, The Great River District began to hold the Dao Debate Platform, so they decided to move here.

They have put a lot of effort into settling down here.

They joined the Xuan Yihui, sent the strongest of the younger generation of the family to make a name on the Dao Debate Platform.

Later they also participated in the divide of the Broken Mountain Gang’s territory.

If everything went well, their strong Foundation Establishment True Cultivator and numerous Late Stage Qi Refinement younger generation would have been enough to establish themselves in The Great River District.

However, the process did not go very smoothly.

First, they engaged in a battle to stop Qin Liangchen and lost many clansmen.

Then they had a conflict with the local old Immortal Cultivation Clan, the Li Family, and lost many more people.

On the trip to the Ghost City, they don’t know how much they gained, but they lost nine Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators.

This could be considered a huge loss!

Under these circumstances, the various territories they previously fought for have become a burden.

If they forcefully operate those territories, they are likely to be dragged into the mire by other forces.

The Nangong family has experienced members.

Therefore, they made the decision to recuperate.

Their large-scale purchase of Jade Marrow Pills this time is preparation for their recuperation.

With this batch of elixir, given enough time, they could completely cultivate a group of Middle Stage and even Late Stage family cultivators.

By then, they would be able to make a comeback.

Luo Chen understood the logic at once.

Perhaps it also had something to do with the increase in his Divine Soul Endowment!

He still focused on the information that Nangong Qin mentioned before he left.

”Could there be more than one Ghost General in the Ghost City?”

With slightly narrowed eyes, Luo Chen felt a sense of urgency.

If a Ghost General comes out of the city, it will inevitably cause bloodshed and catastrophe.

This extremely malicious sort of character does not consider benefits or disadvantages.

If he really runs into a Ghost General, even if Luo Chen can refine Second Order or Third Order elixirs, the other party might not care at all.

After all, these ghost creatures abruptly formed are not orthodox Ghost Cultivators.

They cannot be reasoned with.

”So, I must still improve my strength!”

...

”Hearing you talk about it, Luo Chen seems extraordinary!”

The former site of the Mi family, now the base camp of the Nongong family.

In the quiet room, Nangong Jin opened his eyes, looking at his son whose face was rosy.

Nangong Qin at this moment did not look as sickly as before, his spirit was not very strong, but at least he no longer coughed constantly.

He nodded and said, ”Luo Chen did extract quite a bit of information about the Ghost City from me, but in the end he didn’t show any signs of wanting to enter the city.”

”So it seems, we were indeed reckless.”

Nangong Jin sighed deeply.

The loss of nine Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators was a huge blow to their Nangong family.

The potential benefits of the Ghost City were really too big, he also got quite a few magic tools for dealing with ghost creatures from the Zhenlong Black Market, which made him think about exploring the Ghost City.

But he hadn’t quite expected the outcome...

On the other hand, Luo Chen, with his Qi Refinement stage, was controlling a force, but he was able to resist his greed.

This really changed his Perception of Luo Chen.

This time he was willing to show goodwill to the Nangong family, giving a large amount of elixir, showing what a magnanimous person he is.

”It’s not just about his vision and magnanimity. The feeling he gives me now is completely different from before.”

”Oh?”

Nangong Qin furrowed his brows, speaking with uncertainty.

”In his presence, I felt a pressure similar to when I’m facing you, Father, and felt a great pressure.”

Nangong Jin brow raised, ”Are you serious?”

”Yes!” Nangong Qin seemed to be recalling the scene of their previous meeting, he said with a somewhat unnatural expression:

”In front of him, I felt as if I was completely seen through.”

”Not only that, thinking back, the rhythm of the conversation was always dominated by him.”

”Just like... I am facing a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator!”

After hearing these words, Nangong Jin fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, he finally eased his breath.

”It’s fine, the more outstanding Luo Chen is, the more advantageous it is for us.”

”The other families have been eyeing his Pill Refinement Technique.”

”With him attracting attention at the forefront, it also just takes some of the pressure off us so we can get through the current difficulties.”

Speaking of this, he looked at Nangong Qin sympathetically.

”You need a break!”

”The trip to Ghost City didn’t harm your Original Source, but you indeed have suffered serious injuries.”

”While recovering, you can cultivate well and soon reach Qi Refinement Finalization. And I will keep the Foundation Establishment Pill for you.”

Nangong Qin was overjoyed and saluted his father.

After he left, Nangong Jin thought quietly for a while before suppressing the uneasiness in his heart.

”No matter what, the lineage of the family must not end with me.”

”Even if it means diverting trouble elsewhere ... Luo Chen, huh...”
