Chapter 303: Chief Consultant
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I know that Mr. Ye has some conflicts with the Huaxia’s Martial Arts Department, but we are considered a force to be reckoned with as well. If you take up this position, it should deter the Martial Arts Department.”
“I’m begging you to consider it, Mr. Ye.”
Xiang Chengdong was very excited. He knew very well that if he did not manage to recruit Ye Chen, then the Medicine Alliance would have no future.
Ye Chen thought about it and agreed.
“Alright, but I’ll make it clear first. 1 won’t do anything for the Medicine Alliance, and I can leave at any time.”
Right now, he needed a large number of medicinal herbs for his cultivation. Therefore, it was not a bad thing to establish a relationship with the Huaxia Medicine Alliance.
Moreover, it was just a position. It was dispensable.
However, Ye Chen did not know that there were only two positions in Medicine Alliance that held absolute power.
One of them was the chairman, and the second was the chief consultant!
When Xiang Chengdong saw that Ye Chen had agreed, his eyes shone with a different light.
The Medicine Alliance had a chance to rise!
When Ye Chen left the alchemy room, he went off to pick some medicinal herbs.
Now that he was the chief consultant, he decided not to hold back, and took whatever he needed.
This scene caused the jaws of the members of the Medicine Alliance to collectively drop in shock.
“Sigh, Mr. Ye also took one of the Asura Flowers, so there are only three left.”
“Not good! The Soul Severing Grass has also been taken away!”
“Look, the only Clear Moon Ginseng left in Medicine King Valley has also been discovered. Damn it! Our valley has cultivated that herb for nearly a hundred years!”
One by one, the staff of the Medicine Alliance went to report his actions, but the only reply they received from Xiang Chengdong was this…
“No one is to stop Mr. Ye from doing what he wants in the valley. Violators will be expelled from the Medicine Alliance!”
This alone told everyone the weight of the situation, and all of a sudden, everyone was curious about Ye Chen’s identity.
They could only watch helplessly as Ye Chen took away the extremely precious medicinal herbs.
Fifteen minutes later, Ye Chen left in satisfaction.
He looked around for Zhu Ya but did not find her, so he guessed that she was in the resting area.
Since he had already gotten the information he wanted, there was no reason for him to stick around. Sure, Master Zhao was going to attempt to refine the pill again, but this matter had nothing to do with him.
Ye Chen soon arrived at the resting area and found Zhu Ya at the end of the corridor.
However, at this moment, there was a tall and straight man standing in front of Zhu Ya. The two of them were clearly arguing about something.
There was some displeasure visible on her face.
Ye Chen walked over and vaguely heard something about forging a sword. Something about the Zhu family having violated an agreement…
“Zhu Ya, what’s wrong?”
While the two were arguing, Ye Chen interjected.
Naturally, the man noticed Ye Chen and his eyes narrowed slightly. Ye Chen’s actions in the square earlier were too strange, and it made him wary of the latter.
Even so, he said, “Ye Chen, this has nothing to do with you. I hope you won’t interfere.”
“I didn’t ask you,” Ye Chen replied rudely.
Then he looked at Zhu Ya and said lightly, “I still have things to do, so I don’t plan to stay in the valley. Come back to the city with me. Of course, if you still want to stay here, I’ll take a taxi back.”
Zhu Ya took this opportunity, and quickly said, “Mr. Ye, I came here out of obligation, so I have no problem leaving with you.”
After she finished speaking, she walked toward Ye Chen.
The man’s gaze turned cold. He naturally would not let Zhu Ya leave so easily. He stretched out his hand to grab Zhu Ya’s wrist, but a wind blade intercepted his hand, so he had no choice but to pull his hand back.
His eyes were fixed on Ye Chen.
“Ye Chen, I know you have some knowledge of alchemy, but this is a dispute between me and the Zhu family. If you meddle in it, you’ll be digging yourself into a pit.”
“Back then, the Zhu family promised to forge a sword for me, but there has been no follow-up since. How can I explain this to the Deng family?”
Ye Chen snorted coldly.
“It’s the Zhu family’s right to forge or not. Similarly, it’s my right whether 1 want to meddle or not. What does it have to do with you?”
“You…”
Deng Yuanxiao was extremely furious!
If he let Zhu Ya leave this time, the matter of forging the sword would remain inconclusive!
At this moment, Zhu Ya opened her mouth and said, “Mr. Ye, the Deng family violated the agreement first. The Zhu family…”
Before she could finish, Ye Chen interrupted, “There’s no need to say anything else. I believe you. If Deng Yuanxiao dares to touch you, I’ll make him pay the price!””
His statement was extremely overbearing!
Deng Yuanxiao could already feel countless pairs of eyes staring at him. If he could not get a proper explanation from Zhu Ya today, then the Deng family would be looked down upon in the future.
Ye Chen might know a thing or two about alchemy, and others might care about the Medicine Alliance, but not him.
“Ye Chen, I’ll repeat myself. You’d better not interfere in this matter, or you’ll bear the consequences!”
Ye Chen simply waved his sleeve and said to Zhu Ya, “Let’s go.”
However, they had only taken five steps when a gust of wind swept across their path, and cold killing intent engulfed Zhu Ya!
Clearly, this person was willing to fight in order to keep her here.
Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile.
Seeing that Deng Yuanxiao’s hand was about to grab Zhu Ya’s shoulder, Ye Chen threw a punch. There was nothing fancy about it, but…
Bang!
Deng Yuanxiao’s body fell backward, but Ye Chen did not move at all.
However, this was only the beginning. Ye Chen took a step forward. Like a ferocious tiger charging down a mountain, his hand took the form of a claw that grabbed his opponent’s wrist, and twisted…
Kacha!
His wrist was broken!
“Argh!”
Deng Yuanxiao did not expect Ye Chen’s strength to be so terrifying, and the pain made his face turn pale in the blink of an eye.
He could not even withstand one move! Moreover, the other party had not clearly not even used his full strength. Such a terrifying young man existed in Jiangnan Province?
He screamed in pain and his body fell to the ground.
Ye Chen stood over him, ignoring the gazes of the onlookers.
“You… What are you doing? Don’t… Don’t kill me,” Deng Yuanxiao wailed.
“Kill you?”
“Killing you will only dirty my hands,” Ye Chen sneered.
The smile on his face turned from cold to warm. However, it did nothing to relieve Deng Yuanxiao’s fear.
At this moment, a crowd had already gathered. Most of the people here were invited guests, so for Xiang Chengdong’s sake, they would not fight here.
From their perspective, Ye Chen had gone too far.
Not long after, Xiang Chengdong also rushed over. When he saw Ye Chen, his expression turned strange..
