Chapter 767: 767
Chapter 767 Ten Years (1)
With the current progress, Ye Lang believed that his estimates were wrong . The time span was going to be much shorter than what he imagined, mainly because of Sha Lan .
Initially, Ye Lang estimated based on the Soaring Sky alchemists’ abilities, perhaps a little higher . However, Sha Lan’s abilities far exceeded these people .
One Sha Lan was enough to flip the script . If there were others, it could be worse .
Perhaps in just three to seven years, Soaring Sky would be able to manufacture alchemy weapons on a large scale . The sound wave weapon was just a taste of what’s to come .
Ye Lang had also forgotten that Zhao Yarou was also a mad alchemist, albeit a hidden one .
“Thirteenth master…”
“Ah, it’s him! It’s the thirteenth master!”
“Where? Where?”
When Ye Lang entered the ancient ruins, someone spotted him out of the corner of his eye . And just like that, the situation turned chaotic .
Many people dropped their work at hand and rushed towards him .
“??” Ye Lang was stunned for a moment but realised he might’ve seen these people before . They were the royal alchemists of Soaring Sky .
Ye Lang was well-respected amongst these alchemists . His arrival naturally attracted a lot of attention as everyone crowded around him .
These people wanted to ask him many questions . They were sure that Ye Lang could help them solve their problems .
“Hello everyone, it’s been a while!”
Ye Lang bowed and greeted them . This was one of the reasons why everyone loved him . He was polite to most people, which made them feel closer to him .
Even to Zhao Yarou, he could be considered as polite . He did not truly insult her . He only insulted people he really hated .
“Thirteenth master, when did you arrive?” asked someone .
“I just did, your empress invited me over here…” Ye Lang said with a smile, looking at Zhao Yarou . Zhao Yarou turned away as if she did not know anything .
“Thank you so much, Your Majesty . We’re having a headache now because there are so many problems we can’t solve . ” These alchemists looked gratefully at Zhao Yarou, they did not realise anything .
They did not think about how Zhao Yarou got Ye Lang here . All they knew was that they could finally learn from Ye Lang .
Although Sha Lan was a lot better than them, she couldn’t teach nor solve their problems . This was the main difference between her and Ye Lang .
Ye Lang was unbelievably knowledgeable about everything, including obscure subjects . That was why he could answer most questions . If he did not know something, then almost no one else would .
“You don’t have to thank me . But I want to thank you all for your hard work, for your contributions to the empire!” said Zhao Yarou .

“It is only our duty!” said the alchemists immediately, quite surprised by the compliment .
Ye Lang thought she looked like a leader patrolling the people . Then again, she was the leader of the country .
“About these questions…” Ye Lang stopped himself . “I cannot answer you for the moment!”
“Everyone, Ye Lang has just arrived and is quite tired . You can ask him tomorrow . Back to work, please!” said Zhao Yarou with a smile, dragging Ye Lang away . She did not want him to say she was the one who captured him and he refused to answer any questions .
However, from what just happened, she could tell that Ye Lang was actually quite interested in the things here . She believed that if she kept him here for a while, he would not be able to help himself and start to research . At that point, he would tell them everything he knew .
That was why Zhao Yarou wasn’t worried about that . She knew that he was a politically neutral alchemist . He did not lean towards anyone, merely caring about his research .
If Ye Lang knew what she thought, he would be depressed at how well this madwoman knew himself .
It was true . Ye Lang thought that it was a crime to suppress alchemy research just for politics . This would slow down the advancement of civilisation as a whole . As an alchemist, he would not want that .
The balance of science and politics was a frequently debated topic on Earth too . Scientists would opt for scientific research to continue .
“Zhao Yarou, are you really that bored? Why aren’t you at the palace, what are you doing here?” said Ye Lang .
“I am working here, it’s the same as being in the palace,” said Zhao Yarou . Documents that required her attention could always be sent here . It was the same thing .

As for council meetings, she let the palace officials settle those among themselves and then inform her of their final decisions for her approval .
“Are you really going to stay here?” said Ye Lang .
“What’s the problem with that? We were here together for more than ten days before this, what are you afraid of?” said Zhao Yarou .
“Nothing, I’m just asking . I can’t ask questions now?” said Ye Lang .
“You can, of course you can!” Zhao Yarou held his hand . “Brother-in-law, let’s go back to the place from last time . ”
“What did you just call me?” said Ye Lang, stunned .
“Brother-in-law! Am I wrong?” she asked curiously .
“You’re not wrong…” Ye Lang just nodded . “I’m just not used to it . ”
“Actually, I think it’s more exciting like this, sister and brother-in-law together…”
“Haha…”

And just like that, she pulled him away…
“What did I just witness? Why is Her Majesty so intimate with Thirteenth master? And she laughed!” asked an alchemist, not knowing the rumours between them .
He had only seen her being cold and terrifying . He didn’t know she had a side like that .
“It’s very normal . Her Majesty treats him quite differently, I heard they have some sort of secret relationship between them . ”
“What relationship?”
“Not the normal brother and sister-in-law kind, of course . ”
