Most of the people in the garden knew the grievances between Lou Qianxue and the Su family yesterday. They could not control themselves from whispering.
At this moment,
“Everyone.” A clear voice suddenly rang out.
Lou Qianxue looked up and saw the young man sitting at the main seat standing up.
“I, Yan Gongqing, am very happy that everyone has accepted my invitation and come here today. I hereby express my sincere gratitude. However, I indeed have an important matter to tell everyone today.”
He was Yan Gongqing, the talented grandson of Master Yan, the fourth-grade alchemist whose cultivation had been ruined.
“You may not know that an elder from the Alchemy King’s mansion had thought highly of me some time ago. So, I’ve become one of the inner sect disciples of the Alchemy King’s mansion.”
These words shocked everyone.
“Alchemy King’s mansion?”
“Young Master Yan has already become an inner sect disciple of the Alchemy King’s mansion at such a young age. Impressive, really impressive.”
“He’s indeed Master Yan’s grandson!”
Lou Qianxue also knew that the Alchemy Unions from the seven kingdoms belonged to the Alchemy King’s mansion. Besides, the Alchemy Union controlled the supply of pills for the seven kingdoms. The influence of the Alchemy King’s mansion on the seven kingdoms was evident.
Yan Gongqing became proud as he enjoyed the admiration and awe from everyone. He said, “However, I’m not someone who forgets my origins. Now that there’s some good news, I can’t wait to share it with everyone.”
Everyone became agitated after hearing the information.
Since Yan Gongqing had said it this way, the news would be related to the Alchemy King’s mansion.
To them, the Alchemy King’s mansion was an out of reach colossus. Merely listening about it made them refreshed and happy.
“In recent years, with the blooming of martial arts, a big batch of experts has emerged like bamboo shoots after the rain from all areas of the Xuantian continent. The Alchemy King’s mansion loves talents. Hence, an alchemy competition is scheduled to be held for the seven kingdoms three months later. Among them, the alchemy conference of our Tian Zhao Dynasty will be held in the Lingxi Prefecture’, the medicine capital. Everyone with noble aspirations and who has reached a standard can participate in this competition. If they get a good rank, they can join the Alchemy King’s mansion!”
“What?”
“Is this true?”
“The Alchemy King’s mansion is accepting people?”
“This is great. I just started alchemy, and I only need the guidance of a famous teacher. If I can become a disciple of the Alchemy King’s mansion…”
Nobody could control their excitement after hearing that they had a chance to join the Alchemy King’s mansion.
“Alchemy King’s mansion… Alchemy competition… Interesting. If there’s a chance, I want to go and experience it.” Lou Qianxue was also shaken up by the atmosphere.
Yan Gongqing watched everyone’s expression and smiled proudly. “Everyone, please be assured that this news is true. Although everyone can’t be like me and become an inner sect disciple of the Alchemy King’s mansion, you can become an outer sect disciple. It is also a worthy achievement.”
“Young Master Yan’s words make sense.”
“Thank you, Young Master Yan, for telling us this piece of good news.”
“Being an inner sect disciple of the Alchemy King’s mansion is more impressive than being a big official in the imperial city. Young Master Yan is admirable.”
Yan Gongqing was feeling smug, but he did not forget about the proper business today.
Although he wanted to inform the others about his new position, the most important reason for inviting everyone to the banquet today was because of a beautiful woman’s entrust.
As he thought of this, he glanced at Xu Miaoyan. Upon seeing Xu Miaoyan’s beautiful eyes that were staring back at him, he could not help himself from thinking about Xu Miaoyan’s fair and enchanting body. A fire surged within him.
He coughed lightly and said, “Once the alchemy competition is held, there will be many alchemy geniuses swarming there. At that time, if everyone’s skills are not good, I’m afraid it will be difficult for you to stand out. Hence…”
