Chapter 2642: Chapter 2645: Want Ancient Alchemy Art?
"Jiang Chen has brought glory to our Canglan Continent. In addition to the rewards he deserves, he will be given an extra three drops of Bodhi Nurturing Divine Saliva and may choose five seven-grade and eight-grade single prescriptions at will! Today, all of Canglan Continent celebrate!"
Teng Wenkang shouted out.
"Canglan Continent celebrate!"
"Thank you, Grandmaster Jiang!"
"Thank you, Grandmaster Jiang!"
Cheers erupted, and everyone was extremely excited.
To celebrate the entire continent is such an honor that Jiang Chen’s name instantly spread to every corner of Canglan Continent!
Members of the Long Family exchanged glances, a trace of solemnity flashing in their eyes; this Dragon Qi seemed hard to grab!
Several members of the Lei Family smiled joyfully, though Jiang Chen was not representing their family in the competition, he had deep connections with them, and seeing Jiang Chen achieve such success, they were also thrilled.
The people from the Huo Family showed complex expressions in their eyes, with regret, melancholy, pain, and guilt!
Swish, swish, swish!
Silhouettes flickered as Teng Wenkang, Cheng Huang’er, and others flew up toward the City Lord’s Mansion, leaving Yuan Kui to continue hosting the rest of the competition’s events.
The Huo Family successfully kept their title among the Five Great Families, and even secured it with a first-place achievement, something they had never achieved before.
However, they couldn’t bring themselves to feel happy.
Originally worried about the oppression from the other families, but now, after the pill competition, the Feng Family, Yan Family, and Qin Family couldn’t escape being sent to the Extraterritorial Battlefield.
The crisis for the Huo Family was thoroughly resolved, and even the families that pressured them were almost gone, leaving only the Lei Family and Long Family.
This was five spots for the Five Great Families, making the Huo Family the third in Elixir Divine City!
Huo Langran and others regretted deeply, thinking if they had known, why did they abandon Jiang Chen?
Now, Jiang Chen had become the first Pill Master in Canglan Continent to craft pills below the Ninth Grade imbued with Dao essence, sure to be deeply valued by Canglan City. If their family had maintained a good relationship with him, wouldn’t that be...
Alas!
Hundreds of thoughts turned into a sigh, Huo Langran and others were filled with bitterness, Jiang Chen originally had good relations with their family, yet they pushed him away!
City Lord’s Mansion.
Sigh!
A relieved sound came from a bed, and several strong individuals who wanted to leave turned to look.
Jiang Chen opened his eyes, looking at Jin Ang, Jin Ming, and Lei Ling’er about to leave, smiling, "No need to worry, it’s just a minor injury, the most important is the excessive depletion!"
"You...I heard your Great Dao Wheel of Light nearly collapsed?"
Jin Ming looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment.
Jiang Chen shrugged, "Great Elder, my Thunder Path Great Dao Wheel of Light is bearing Tribulation Lightning, can it be so easily crushed?"
"Not only that, when you gathered your spirit, if Feng Yunxi hadn’t attacked you, there would have been remaining strength, right? The thunder released by your Thunder Path at the last moment far exceeds the power contained in Feng Yunxi’s Pill Thunder! However, the primordial spirit was indeed harmed, it just wasn’t that severe!"
A voice carrying laughter sounded, the door opened, and Teng Wenkang, Cheng Huang’er, Elder Shui, Elder Feng, and Yuan Chong walked in.
"Indeed, your perceptive eyes, Crown Prince!"
Jiang Chen chuckled as he spoke.
"You..."
Cheng Huang’er looked at Jiang Chen with some confusion.
"I pretended to be wounded, not to invoke sympathy, but to prevent the situation at Changling Academy from happening again."
Jiang Chen straightened his expression, speaking softly.
"Changling Acad..."
Cheng Huang’er suddenly understood, softly saying, "There’s no need for you to do this, my brother and I are here, we won’t force you to hand over the heritage!"
Lei Ling’er and the others were taken aback, finally understanding why Jiang Chen pretended to faint.
"Little Princess, you’re quite naïve!"
Jiang Chen chuckled, shaking his head.
Cheng Huang’er’s face changed slightly, gritting her teeth, "Jiang Chen, don’t think you can look down on people just because you’ve become a Grandmaster Pill Master!"
Teng Wenkang glanced at Cheng Huang’er, gently smiling, motioning Elder Feng trying to speak to stay quiet, watching Jiang Chen and Cheng Huang’er with interest.
Seeing this, everyone sealed their lips.
"Little Princess, I don’t mean to belittle you, I’m saying your thinking is too simple!"
Jiang Chen explained softly, "This is why the Crown Prince let me recover at the City Lord’s Mansion." After a look at Teng Wenkang, Jiang Chen bowed slightly to express gratitude.
Teng Wenkang gently gestured.
"Little Princess."
Jiang Chen turned again to Cheng Huang’er, "You are an emperor’s daughter, you don’t understand what it’s like to have no backing."
Glancing at Jin Ang, Jin Ming, and Lei Ling’er, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "I believe Jin elders and Ling’er will surely protect me, the Gold-devouring Rat Clan will surely protect me, but I cannot implicate the Gold-devouring Rat Clan as the enemy of the continent’s pill masters!"
"Isn’t that a bit too pessimistic?"
Cheng Huang’er frowned slightly.
"Pessimistic?"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "Little Princess, do you believe? All pill masters in Elixir Divine City must have already contacted their families or known strong individuals. When Yuan Kui the City Lord returns, some masters will definitely come seeking to share ancient alchemy, reasoning with emotions, involving all pill masters and even invoking the Great Emperor." After a pause, Jiang Chen looked toward Teng Wenkang, now reviewing a Message Transmitting Jade Slip.
"People from the Dan Pavilion?"
Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
Everyone turned to Teng Wenkang.
"Yes!"
Teng Wenkang nodded.
"Do they want ancient alchemy?"
Jiang Chen smiled brightly.
"Yes!"
Teng Wenkang nodded again.
Jin Ang and Jin Ming’s expressions changed, stepping forward to stand by the bedside, watching Teng Wenkang cautiously.
Swoosh!
Lei Ling’er jumped onto the bed, one hand grabbing Jiang Chen’s arm, the other taking out a Jade Talisman filled with spatial charm.
"Spatial Shifting Jade Talisman?"
Teng Wenkang looked at the Jade Talisman in Lei Ling’er’s hand with surprise, laughing softly, "I know who you are now!"
"Ling’er, two elders, not necessary."
Jiang Chen pressed Lei Ling’er’s hand holding the Jade Talisman, turning to Teng Wenkang, "If the Crown Prince wants to detain me, teleporting won’t help us, we can’t resist, plus the Crown Prince wouldn’t do such a thing."
"Oh? Why not? The value of ancient alchemy is very high!"
Teng Wenkang chuckled.
"Because the Crown Prince knows ancient alchemy, I mean not merely heard of it but fully understands it; he’s even seen others use ancient alchemy." Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Otherwise, the Crown Prince wouldn’t know it so well." Glancing at Elder Shui, Jiang Chen added, "This elder here should be familiar with ancient alchemy." Everyone paused at his words, looking towards Elder Shui.
"How do you know this?"
Elder Shui opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Chen.
"Uncle Shui, you..."
Cheng Huang’er looked at Elder Shui with surprise—she didn’t even know this.
