Chapter 2706
2706 Don’t provoke them.
“Thank you for your kind intentions, manager li. However, you might be disappointed. I’ve already invited a spiritual alchemist back. It’s not that easy to destroy our pillheart Pavilion.” In front of so many people, Xia Yimin couldn’t bring shame to the reputation of the pillheart Pavilion, so he said coldly. As he spoke, he looked at Ling Chuxi as if he was asking for help.
“Let’s go. There’s nothing much to say to such a person. Why don’t we hurry to the pillheart Pavilion and make use of the time to refine more spirit pills to shut some people’s mouths?” Since Ling Chuxi had already decided to help the pill house, she naturally had to speak up for them and help Xia Yimin regain some face.
Xia Yimin was a person with a rich imagination, but his character was not bad. Ling Chuxi did not mind being friends with him.
“Hahahaha, so this is The Alchemist you’ve hired. Even if you can’t hire a decent Alchemist, you don’t have to find a little girl to make up the numbers. Brother Xia, you can’t keep up appearances like this. Be careful, even your pillheart Pavilion will be ruined if you’re not careful.” He never thought that Ling Chuxi would actually be a spiritual alchemist invited back by the pill Heart Pavilion at such a young age. He was stunned for a moment before he let out a mocking laugh.
Huangfu qingjue looked at him, and a divine light appeared in his eyes. Deacon li suddenly felt a chill penetrate through his body, and he couldn’t help but shiver. His laughter also came to a sudden stop. He originally wanted to say a few more words of ridicule, but when faced with Huangfu qingjue’s cold gaze, he couldn’t say a single word.
Ling Chuxi could not be bothered to waste any more time with him and took the lead to walk forward.
“Hmph, just because you invited a little girl who still reeks of her mother’s milk, you think you can compete with our Xingfeng Chamber of Commerce? what a joke, what a joke.” Only after Ling Chuxi and Huangfu qingjue’s figures disappeared from his line of sight did attendant Li’s uneasy heart calm down as he spoke in disdain.
“Is it really that funny?” A serious voice came from behind him.
“Vice President.” Deacon li turned around and saw an old man with a white beard standing behind him. It was Xiang Gaoyuan, the Vice President of Xingfeng Chamber of Commerce. He quickly bowed.
There were a total of two presidents in Xingfeng Chamber of Commerce. The president’s whereabouts were mysterious and he rarely asked about the Chamber of Commerce’s Affairs. Everything was handled by the Vice President. Therefore, although he was the Vice President in name, he actually held great power and was no different from the president.
“What’s going on?” Xiang Gaoyuan asked.
“This Xia Yimin … I invited him to our Xingfeng Chamber of Commerce with good intentions, but he doesn’t know how to appreciate my kindness. I don’t know where he found this little girl, but she’s a spirit returning Alchemist. Isn’t she afraid of ruining the reputation of his loyal heart Pavilion?” Deacon Li said.
“She’s just a little girl. Even if she’s really an Alchemist, she can’t be that strong. The man beside her, on the other hand, is unfathomable. Don’t provoke them. The pillheart Pavilion doesn’t have much time left anyway, so there’s no need to make trouble.” Xiang Gaoyuan said with a frown.
“Yes, Vice President.” Deacon li replied.
“Also, you have to comfort the new spirit alchemists and make them show their true abilities. We’ll take advantage of this myriad pill feast to promote our Chamber of Commerce’s spirit pills to the various aristocratic families and sect abodes. We’ll cut off the pillheart Pavilion’s source of income and drive them out of the alchemy world. In the future, our Chamber of Commerce will be the only one in Xiuzhou city.” Xiang Gaoyuan said.
“Yes, your subordinate knows what to do.” Manager li nodded and returned to the Chamber of Commerce.
However, Xiang Gaoyuan did not leave immediately. He looked in the direction that Ling Chuxi and the others had left in and felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart. A little girl who was not even twenty years old, no matter how high her pill refining skills were, she shouldn’t be able to make him feel so uneasy, right? That’s right, it must be because of that young man. Just what was that person’s background that even he couldn’t see through?
