Chapter 608: Chapter 605: Stirring Up Trouble_1
Yang Chen blinked and chuckled quietly, “What, do you think I’m not qualified somewhere, Miss?”
Lin Fang sneered, “Young Master, my time is short. The alchemists who came here to refine elixirs all think that their elixirs are of great value, but what kind of person is our Elder Wen? You can’t just see him whenever you want. You really think too highly of yourself.”
Yang Chen was in a bit of a dilemma.
He came to the Pill Heart Commerce with the intention of using their materials to refine a pill for his own use. But now that he had arrived, no one recognized him.
He wouldn’t go so far as to use collateral again to refine a pill, which made it a difficult decision for Yang Chen. Last time for the Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pill, the God Piercing Nail could be used as collateral, but this time the pill he wanted to refine might be a bit more difficult with just one God Piercing Nail.
As Yang Chen was worried, Lin Fang didn’t even glance at him before disdainfully saying, “These days, there are so many people who take themselves too seriously.”
Having said that, Lin Fang was about to turn around and leave.
But at that moment, someone nearby suddenly looked at Yang Chen and exclaimed, “Hey, isn’t that Yang Chen who attended the feast held by the Black Dragon Sect a few days ago?”
“Yang Chen?”
“You don’t even know. The Black Dragon Sect held two competitions during the feast, one was the Iron Hawk Secret Realm contest, and the other was the Desperate Island contest. Guess what? In the first contest, Yang Chen got second place, and in the second contest, he pushed down the genius Luo Yunhu from the Black Dragon Sect and Saintess Qingyin from the Green Lotus Sect, successfully passing through eight Desperate Islands without a hitch!”
“I know now, it’s that Yang Chen. Wait, you said he is Yang Chen?”
“Is there any doubt? My father and I attended the banquet. Why would I lie to you!”
Instantly, many alchemists came up to make connections- “Young Master Yang!”
“So it’s Young Master Yang! Long admired your name, long admired!”
“Brother Yang, I am the eldest son of the Liu Family in Changning County, and I would like to get acquainted…”
These people coming up to socialize made Yang Chen somewhat dumbfounded, but he didn’t really take himself too seriously and put on any airs. He responded kindly to each one of them.
This made Lin Fang, the young female receptionist who had not taken Yang Chen seriously, startled and speechless, not expecting that the young man in front of her was the recent sensation, Yang Chen. She had no qualification to attend the banquet, so where would she have seen Yang Chen’s appearance? It was already good enough that she had heard about him.
“No, how is this possible?” Lin Fang widened her eyes.
How could this gifted and peerless genius, Yang Chen, look like this? There was no aura fluctuation emanating from his body, and his clothes were not dignified at all.
“This must be fake, it must be fake!” Lin Fang muttered to herself when suddenly, another young woman walked out of the Pill Heart Commerce.
Although this woman was as young as Lin Fang, her entire aura was completely different from Lin Fang’s. From her eyes and temperament, it was not difficult to see that this woman was extraordinary and decidedly not comparable to Lin Fang.
“It’s Elder Wen Piaoxue.”
“Elder Wen has come out.”
Wen Piaoxue’s eyebrows furrowed. She had just heard the commotion earlier, and now that she had come out, she saw a crowd gathered and felt displeased.
What do these people think of her Pill Heart Commerce? A place to socialize and network?
Wen Piaoxue was just about to speak when suddenly, she noticed the young man in the crowd.
One look and Wen Piaoxue was dumbfounded, exclaiming, “Yang Chen, my friend!”
Yang Chen also noticed Wen Piaoxue and quickly spoke amiably, “Elder Wen.”
He had not forgotten his main purpose for coming, and now that he had met Wen Piaoxue, those trying to socialize with him would naturally be put aside for the time being.
“Young Master Yang Chen, when did you arrive?” Wen Piaoxue asked excitedly.
Last time after Yang Chen left, she had deliberately sent someone to inquire about him. No sooner had she inquired than she found out that Yang Chen was actually a genius who had attended the Black Dragon Sect’s banquet. Moreover, coincidentally, Yang Chen had just gained some fame at the time.
He defeated Xiao Wei, performed well in the Iron Hawk Secret Realm, and in addition to passing through eight Desperate Islands just yesterday, she was well informed of all these achievements.
With such rich and colorful accomplishments, others might not understand, but as someone who could serve as an elder in the Pill Heart Commerce, would Wen Piaoxue not know what they meant?
Combined with Yang Chen’s alchemy level, this Yang Chen…
Was undoubtedly a peerless genius of dual cultivation in both martial and alchemy.
Whenever she thought of this, Wen Piaoxue’s heart pounded, as this kind of peerless genius, if Pill Heart Commerce could win them over, would be a massive gain.
Yang Chen sighed in relief at the sight of Wen Piaoxue, “I just arrived, and in fact, I was planning to find you, Elder Wen.”
“Young Master Yang is too polite. If you want to find me, just give me a word.” Wen Piaoxue smiled.
“Haha, Elder Wen, Brother Yang did want to inform you. But your blind receptionist here doesn’t recognize Brother Yang, haha, Elder Wen, how do you guys do things at the Pill Heart Commerce? Brother Yang, if you really need materials for alchemy, you can go to our Liu Family. Our Liu Family also has an Alchemy Trading Company! ” Someone who had seen the whole thing clearly spoke up to help Yang Chen while implying something else.
He had witnessed Yang Chen’s refining of the Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pill and was well aware of Yang Chen’s alchemy level. With Yang Chen’s current fame, wouldn’t he want to establish a connection with him?
This made Wen Piaoxue very anxious. She glared at the person speaking and scolded, “I say, Young Master Liu, you’re going too far! Robbing people at our Pill Heart Commerce, that’s breaking the rules!”
“Hehe, am I breaking the rules? Elder Wen, it’s your Pill Heart Commerce’s fault for not doing things properly. The receptionist at the door doesn’t even recognize Brother Yang Chen and even tried to drive him away. I’m just stepping in to correct your error. Is there anything wrong with that?”
Wen Piaoxue’s eyebrows furrowed, knowing that this incident wasn’t just idle talk, and turned her gaze to Lin Fang.
With Wen Piaoxue staring at her, Lin Fang was indeed terrified.
She knew that she had gotten herself into trouble.
How could she have imagined that she would usually provoke the young masters of small families, causing no major harm? Also, her judgment was not bad; she wouldn’t dare provoke those with power and influence. But, regrettably, she had misjudged today.
At this point, she was filled with regret, her intestines turning green from guilt.
As remorse filled her heart, fear appeared on her face. She looked fearfully at her Elder Wen Piaoxue, swallowed nervously, and realized very well that if she couldn’t explain things well, she would face a severe consequence.
