Alchemy Master

Chapter 575, Feng Lingzun

Translator: Silavin

“That is… a High Elder of the Feng Family’s Alchemy Pavilion: Feng Lingzun!”

At the front of the crowd, several members of the Imperial City’s noble Families had their pupils constrict, and their expressions immediately became extremely solemn.

The High Elder of the Feng Family’s Alchemy Pavilion represented not only supreme authority, but also a symbol of status and strength that they could never hope to reach!

Under countless excited gazes, the group led by Feng Lingzun entered the Shen Family Residence and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

“Heavens, a High Elder from the Feng Family’s Alchemy Pavilion? Are my eyes not deceiving me?”

“I originally came just to watch the Alchemy Manor Summit, but I never expected to witness a Feng Family High Elder. This trip has been worthwhile!”

“Such an important figure has appeared – it seems something significant is about to happen…”

It was only at this moment that the shocked crowd came to their senses, and immediately excited and thrilled voices began to ring out continuously.

“The Shen Family? The Shen Family… isn’t that where that lucky young man is temporarily residing?”

Amongst the various exclamations, a sudden cry of surprise rang out.

Hearing this cry, many people’s bodies trembled violently… that lucky guy!

If one were to say what matter had captured everyone’s attention most recently, it would definitely be the incident at Water Moon Crystal House.

Originally, the Crystal House had always been cold and deserted, but now it had become a hotspot, all because of that one lucky youth.

A Spirit Dissipation Crystal had actually produced a Peak Grade Spirit Seed!

It was precisely because of this that the people of the Imperial City remembered him, and through various channels, his place of residence was no longer any secret.

After all, one of the women beside him was Shen Ling from the Shen Family.

Arrogant in behaviour, yet good fortune always seemed to descend upon him.

Indifferent to money, and even when facing Ouyang Haotian from the Ouyang Family, he remained neither servile nor overbearing!

Combined with the Feng Family gold card he possessed, could it be that this fortunate young man truly had some connection to the personal visit of this High!?

As the crowd engaged in wild speculation, a dark shadow at the very front had flickering eyes. Finally, he glared fiercely in the direction of the Shen Family Residence, then melted into the crowd and swiftly rushed towards the location of the Ouyang Family.

Naturally, this drew no one’s attention.

Because after that High Elder from the Feng Family entered the Shen Family Residence, quite a few people had disappeared from the crowd, all going to spread the news.

“Quickly go and summon Qin Yichen!”

After leading Feng Lingzun and his two companions into the main hall of the Shen Family Residence, Shen Fangu immediately instructed Shen Ling.

…

“A High Elder from the Feng Family has come?”

Upon hearing Shen Ling’s words, Qin Yichen was also momentarily stunned.

Originally, when he had deliberately revealed those two Pill Formulas in the World Aplenty Hall and mentioned Compound Pills, he had expected it might attract the attention of the Feng Family’s upper echelons. However, he clearly hadn’t anticipated that the Feng Family would care so much about Compound Pills that a High Elder would personally come to the Heavenly Dragon Imperial City and visit the Shen Family.

[No wonder the Feng Family has remained prosperous for so long…] Qin Yichen sighed inwardly.

In such a situation, any other Force would probably not be as gentle as the Feng Family.

Qin Yichen was very clear about what it meant to be guilty of possessing a treasure.

Forceful seizure and plunder were the main themes of this world. Forces like the Feng Family that could treat talented individuals with courtesy were extremely rare.

Perhaps this was the true reason for the Feng Family’s strength.

After changing into fresh clothes, Qin Yichen emerged from his room and smiled at Shen Ling, “Let’s go.”

Seeing that Qin Yichen did not appear particularly surprised, Shen Ling felt speechless. How was it that everything seemed to be within this fellow’s expectations?

Following Shen Ling, they passed through the rear compound and finally stopped at the main hall for receiving distinguished guests. After knocking on the door, Qin Yichen pushed it open and entered.

As Qin Yichen stepped into the hall, all eyes fell upon him.

Feng Jianzhong and Grandmaster Lan Wen nodded at him in a friendly manner, and Qin Yichen responded with a smile. Then his gaze fell upon the blue-robed, long-bearded Elder sitting in the place of honour at the head of the hall.

“Feng Lingzun, this old fellow actually came personally?”

Upon seeing that blue-robed Elder, a flash of surprise crossed Qin Yichen’s eyes.

He was naturally not unfamiliar with Feng Lingzun. In his previous life, he had dealt with this Senior, and he also knew that this man was a complete Alchemy fanatic!

In fact, it was no surprise he had travelled from the Feng Family to find him.

At this moment, Feng Lingzun’s gaze was also scrutinising Qin Yichen from head to toe, and during his examination, there were faint, subtle fluctuations emanating.

Under Feng Lingzun’s scrutinising gaze, Qin Yichen showed no sign of discomfort whatsoever, maintaining a calm smile that made it impossible to fathom his depths.

“Heroes emerge from the young, excellent, excellent!”

Seeing that under his gaze, this young man could maintain such composure in the face of honour or disgrace, a flash of surprise also crossed Feng Lingzun’s eyes. Then he slowly withdrew his gaze and chuckled.

“Senior flatters me. The word ‘hero’ is something this Junior dare not claim!” Qin Yichen also chuckled and cupped his fists in salute.

“Haha, Patriarch Shen, would it be possible for you to do me a favour and allow me to speak privately with Young Master Qin for a while?”

Feng Lingzun nodded with satisfaction and asked Shen Fangu.

“That’s naturally no problem!”

Upon hearing this, Shen Fangu immediately nodded, then with a wave of his hand, all the Shen Family members in the hall bowed and proceeded outside.

Then, at Feng Lingzun’s indication, Feng Jianzhong and Grandmaster Lan Wen also respectfully withdrew. The spacious hall was immediately left with only Feng Lingzun and Qin Yichen.

“Feng Family, Feng Lingzun.”

The blue-robed Elder stroked his long beard gently and spoke.

“Qin Yichen.” Qin Yichen also nodded and spoke.

“Young Master Qin, I won’t beat around the bush. The purpose of my visit, I believe you already know.” Feng Lingzun looked at Qin Yichen and suddenly smiled.

“Is it related to the Compound Pills?” Qin Yichen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke.

“Indeed. I wonder how many more Compound Pill formulas the Young Master has in his possession? My Feng Family wishes to purchase them all.” Feng Lingzun did not avoid the subject and directly said.

“For now, about five or six more, I suppose.” Qin Yichen lightly tapped the table with his fingers, pondered briefly, and spoke.

“Five or six?!” Upon hearing these casual words, Feng Lingzun’s expression suddenly changed dramatically. Compound Pills – this entirely new type of pill had shown him a vast market. Whether it was the Clear Mind Pill that had already been sold to the Feng Family’s World Aplenty Hall, or the Yuan Healing Pill, both were sufficient to cause a huge sensation in the Pill market!

And this one youth actually had five or six more Compound Pill Formulas in his possession!

If he could purchase all of them…

At this thought, even with Feng Lingzun’s composure, he could not help but tremble inwardly.

If he could acquire them all, then in the Pill market, who could possibly contend with the Feng Family?
