Hearing the conversation here, everyone looked over, their eyes flickering.
Everyone knew that the three vice heads and Xuan Yi, the Medicine King, did not get along. The reason why Xuan Yi was ousted from his position as vice head years ago was closely related to the aggressiveness of Jin Shengjie and the others.
And now that Xuan Yi'så£å, Lu Wencheng, had just fallen, it had long become big news in the Alchemy Pavilion. Everyone knew that Xuan Yi was still grieving, yet at this moment, Jin Shengjie and Deputy Head Kang Youming mentioned such a topic, clearly with a provocative intent.
As expected, upon hearing their words, Xuan Yi shot a cold glance at the two, saying lightly, "Thanks to the two of you, Iām still alive. I wonder if the two vice heads are disappointed?"
"Xuan Yi, you think too much. We came up here just to care about you!"
"Yes, we all know you just lost your Holy Son. Itās hard for you. We just wanted to advise you to take care of yourself and not to hurt yourself. Xuan Yi, arenāt you being a bit too petty?"
The expressions of the two changed, but they still smiled as they spoke.
"Is that so? Should I apologize then?" Xuan Yi sneered; everyone could see their intentions. Was this hypocrisy really necessary?
"I heard you recommended another genius as the Holy Son, and even got to the head lord. Honestly, Xuan Yi, why bother?" Deputy Head Kang Youming chuckled.
Deputy Head Jin also sneered, "Have you forgotten about Lu Wencheng's incident? Why drag others down with you? Hurting others is quite unfortunate, isnāt it?"
Xuan Yi's pupils suddenly glinted with killing intent, "My business is not something the two of you should meddle in, right?"
He had long suspected that Lu Wencheng's death was a conspiracy. Now, hearing Qin Chen say that Lu Wencheng's death was related to the Huang family from the Alchemy City, and that the Huang family's backing was this Deputy Head Jin, it was clear that if what Qin Chen said was true, Lu Wencheng's death was naturally linked to Deputy Head Jin, causing his inner killing intent to surge.
"This old fool, not knowing good intentions." Deputy Head Jin snorted coldly, turning to leave.
Seeing the conflict here come to a stop, the atmosphere on the scene eased slightly, and everyone focused their attention back on the matter of the head lord calling for them.
In the Alchemy Pavilion, there were basically no secrets. Soon, everyone knew that the head lord had summoned Qin Chen, and they all sneered.
"That Qin Chen, so arrogant in our Alchemy Pavilion, injured the Holy Son of Jin Zhou as soon as he arrived, and later even killed someone in the Dan City, not to mention beating up Qing Hong Dan Masterās He Dan Tong. With such arrogance, it would be strange if the head lord approved his Holy Son application."
"Not just these three incidents; I heard when Qin Chen was transported from the remote area to our Dan Dao City, he created a conflict with the staff in the teleportation hall, beating them up wildly. It was only the management Ma Bing who intervened that it was settled."
"Is that so? This person is too arrogant!"
"This matter has already been submitted by Ma Bing. If such a reckless person becomes our Alchemy Pavilionās Holy Son, how can it end well?"
The crowd discussed, sneering incessantly.
In addition to the various elders and vice heads of the Alchemy Pavilion, there were also some ordinary staff and alchemists, many of whom had no factions but only served the Alchemy Pavilion. Hearing about Qin Chen's misdeeds, they only felt that he was too arrogant, and being called in by the head lord, he was surely in grave danger.
Among the crowd, He Dan Tong followed beside an elderly man with gray hair, his expression fierce.
Good old Qin Chen, now he has provoked everyone's wrath; let's see how he handles it, thinking just because heās a renowned Medicine King, heās something special?
"He Rui, is this person really as you said, not giving this old man any face?" Beside He Dan Tong was Qing Hong Dan Master, who was also the third vice head of the Alchemy Pavilion.
