Chapter 656: 656
The entire top floor of a grand and soaring building in the treasure tower region had been completely reserved by junior master Fang . No one else was permitted to enter .
“Brother Long, you’ve really opened my eyes today . Previously, I always thought that face-slaps were only for people weaker than you, but seeing you slap that elder, I realize the truth . Let me offer you a cup!” Junior master Fang actually stood up and toasted with Long Chen with both hands .
Everyone’s expressions changed slightly, and they all felt a trace of hostility toward Long Chen . Junior master Fang cared too much about Long Chen .
None of them had said a word to Long Chen the entire time . In their eyes, Long Chen was just a martial artist . He couldn’t be compared to grand alchemists .
They hadn’t openly displayed any contempt for him because they were giving face to junior master Fang . But now junior master Fang was so respectful to him, which displeased them .
Just by relying on some face-slapping art, he had managed to gain so much favor from junior master Fang . That luck was absolutely ridiculous .
“Brother Fang is too courteous . Cheers!” Long Chen laughed and touched his cup to junior master Fang’s .
The wine was excellent . It had actually been made out of over a hundred rare medicines, and was extremely beneficial to a person’s soul .
“Brother Long, let me introduce you . These people are all alchemists who came to participate in the Pill Emperor Competition . They are all elites in the alchemy world,” said junior master Fang .
These people had all been drawn into junior master Fang’s camp early so that they wouldn’t end up on the side of the other two families .
Although they were all part of the Pill Tower, the Huo family, Fang family, and Chai family all cared most about their people . That would determine how high their position would be in the future .
These people had been pulled in by junior master Fang in private . As for the registration test, he had directly let them skip it .
He had originally brought everyone out to go hunting and amuse themselves . But on the way, they had seen people from the Huo family . They had gone down to amuse themselves, but as a result, they had encountered Long Chen .
“No, no, I wouldn’t dare call myself an elite . Compared to brother Long’s beautiful face-slaps, alchemy is just a minor Dao,” laughed one of them .
Long Chen glanced at this person and shook his head inside . As expected, wherever there were people, there was competition . These people had pointed their spears at him so quickly .
This person’s true meaning was extremely obvious: he was just good at slapping people in the face, while they were grand alchemists . The difference between them was like heaven and earth .
Junior master Fang’s high regard for Long Chen had brought on their displeasure, as he had never treated them so grandly before .
“When someone goes and practically pushes their face in front of you, it would be wrong for you to not slap them . That’s how I managed to train my art . If brother is interested, I can give you some private lessons . ” Long Chen smiled .
These words were a bit impolite . But if someone wanted him to slap them, he definitely wouldn’t hesitate .
He had clearly shown his attitude now . For these people, you couldn’t give them face, or they would say and do even more irritating things .
“Haha, alright, let’s not fight . It was fate that brought us together . Let’s all toast to that!” Junior master Fang sensed the atmosphere was getting tense, and he hastily raised his cup with a laugh .
Everyone followed suit . They cared deeply about the Fang family’s strength . On the surface, the Pill Tower was one whole entity, but it was actually controlled by the three families . Entering one of these three families was equivalent to having boundless resources and innumerable cultivation opportunities for them .
So they had to be extremely courteous to him . If they offended junior master Fang, their future prospects would be ruined .
Junior master Fang was extremely happy today . He had managed to entice several talented alchemists to his side, as well as encountered a master midway through a trip .
“I hear this is brother Long’s first time coming to Pill Yang Prefecture . This is a world for alchemists . What plans do you have in coming here?” asked one person .
This person’s off-hand question was extremely sharp and displeasing . Long Chen smiled and was about to reply when footsteps rang out from below .
Junior master Fang’s expression sank . He had already reserved this place . But someone still dared come up and disturb them .
“Junior master Chai?”
When he saw who had come up, junior master Fang leaped up and laughed .
The others didn’t feel right sitting when junior master Fang was standing, so they also stood . Long Chen looked at the newcomers . A total of ten people had come . The person at the front was a medium-sized, square-faced man with an imposing mannerism .
This person was the future heir of one of the Pill Tower’s three great families, the Chai family’s number one junior generation’s alchemy genius .
“Haha, junior master Fang, I heard you have reserved this place . Recently, I’ve been embarrassingly short of money . You wouldn’t mind if a cadged a meal of you, right?” laughed junior master Chai .
