“Senior Luo, you go first,” Yang Chen said helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Luoxing Beauty’s eyes flashed with delight, and she looked triumphantly at the people around her, which infuriated them. The party who proposed the conditions first undoubtedly had various advantages.
Not wanting to waste any time, Luoxing Beauty smiled and said, “Young Master Yang, I offered my conditions yesterday, but in hindsight, they seem inadequate for someone like you. Now, without changing my original conditions, I’ll add some benefits for you. If you’re willing to join my Yanhua Pool, you’ll be considered an elite disciple. If you’re interested, you can even become an inner sect elder of Yanhua Pool and have the same status as me.”
Yang Chen’s performance today was outstanding; all three of his basic assessments were of exceptional quality.
Such talent was rare, having only appeared once in the history of North Mountain County’s Genius Selection Competition.
The genius alchemist with that accomplishment resounded throughout North Mountain County for four hundred years, making a name for himself in alchemy. His alchemy insights and standards still benefited countless people after his passing. After that, there had been no one else who achieved three exceptional achievements in basic assessments, but with proper guidance, Yang Chen’s potential could be boundless. Who wouldn’t want him?
Upon saying this, Luoxing Beauty glanced at Yang Chen, who remained calm.
Unable to help herself, she clenched her shell teeth, “In addition to that, Young
Master Yang, you’ve seen the girl behind me, right? She’s my disciple, MO
HuaWu. HuaWu, greet Young Master Yang quickly!”
Not daring to be slow, MO HuaWu saluted, “HuaWu greets Young Master Yang!”
“If Yang Chen is willing to join Yanhua Pool, I’m willing to betroth my precious apprentice HuaWu to you. You don’t know that, aside from her talent, she also has a fortune-bringing ability. The most important thing is that HuaWu’s talent is top-notch in my Yanhua Pool, being the number one apprentice next to my sect leader’s direct disciple!”
Proudly, Luo Family Beauty continued, “MO HuaWu is only eighteen years old. She has reached the Spiritual Martial Realm 5th Level! In this basic assessment, she has achieved the excellent result of first-class talent.” Upon hearing this, everyone around gasped in awe.
Just eighteen years old and already reached the Spiritual Martial Realm 5th Level?
“Ms. Luo, you have truly found an excellent disciple,” someone complimented.
Upon hearing the praise, Luo Family Beauty snorted before saying, “Young Master Yang, my HuaWu is a few years older than you. If you’re ever bullied, she’ll be the first to stand up for you without hesitation. Most importantly, don’t you think you two make a great match? You focus on alchemy, while she focuses on martial arts – it’s a match made in heaven!”
Luoxing Beauty could almost hear her own voice crack in her effort to persuade
Yang Chen.
However, Yang Chen still showed no signs of agreeing.
This made Luoxing Beauty utterly anxious.
She had just asked her sect leader for advice. The moment her sect leader heard about Yang Chen’s unique talent in alchemy, he insisted that Yang Chen must be brought into Yanhua Pool no matter what.
Anxious, Luo Family Beauty hastily added, “Young Master Yang, I promise that you can be in Yanhua Pool without needing to dress like a woman. Moreover, if you still think that’s not enough, feel free to pursue any girl in Yanhua Pool. If you can win their hearts, I and HuaWu won’t interfere with you having three wives and four concubines.”
It was normal for men to have multiple wives, but the girls in Yanhua Pool were all extremely feisty. Catching their attention was no easy task.
Watching Luo Family Beauty offer such a great deal to win Yang Chen over, the surrounding sect elders couldn’t help but shudder.
Luo Family Beauty was obviously prepared to make a big sacrifice.
Upon hearing this and seeing MO HuaWu, who was too embarrassed to even raise her head, Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and frustration. “Senior Luo, I appreciate your kindness.””Don’t just take my gratitude!” Mrs. Luo raised her hand and stared with her big eyes: “How is it enough for you to just accept my gratitude? Yang Chen, you won’t even accept these conditions? Tell me what you want, as long as you want it, if I have it, I can give it to you!”
Yang Chen helplessly said: “Senior Luo, it’s not that simple!”
“You…”
Mrs. Luo stomped her foot angrily, feeling extremely frustrated.
MO HuaWu also blinked her eyes, watching her master’s disappointment, she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. She and Yang Chen just met by chance and couldn’t talk about any special feelings, but seeing her master disappointed, she carefully thought if it was her fault for not being excellent enough?
Seeing the opportunity, Elder Yu hurriedly said: “Young friend Yang Chen, about this… ‘
“Hehe, Elder Yu, I think I told you yesterday that you would come again today. It seems my words have come true?” Yang Chen said with a smile.
Elder Yu knew exactly what Yang Chen meant, took a deep breath, calmed his anger, and immediately said: “Yang Chen, it was my fault for looking down on you yesterday. But I didn’t know about your talent in alchemy at that time. If I had known, I wouldn’t have made such a mistake yesterday. I sincerely apologize to you here.”
Seeing Elder Yu apologizing, Yang Chen didn’t intend to push the matter any further and his anger subsided. He had already offended the Ming Emperor Sect for no reason and didn’t want to cause trouble with the Huangshan Sect as well.
Elder Yu saw Yang Chen’s anger subsiding and felt delighted, thinking that Yang Chen would choose their Huangshan Sect since it was a Sacred Land for Alchemy.
With this in mind, Elder Yu thought about the credit he would get for successfully drawing Yang Chen in and quickly said: “My friend Yang Chen, I feel deeply sorry for what happened yesterday. Our sect leader has promised that as long as you join our Huangshan Sect, he will immediately accept you as his direct disciple. You should know that our sect leader’s achievements in alchemy are unparalleled. If you want to shine in the alchemy lineage, our Huangshan Sect is undoubtedly the best choice for you.”
“In addition, as long as you wholeheartedly contribute to our Huangshan Sect, we will cover all the alchemy materials and various ancient pill formulas that other disciples can’t learn, you will have the qualification to learn!”
These were the conditions he had offered after consulting with their Huangshan Sect leader, and he exaggerated them once again.
Yang Chen waved his hand: “Elder Yu, our enmity has been cancelled, but I
have no intention of joining the Huangshan Sect for the time being!”
Upon hearing this, Elder Yu was stunned.
What does this mean?
Yang Chen doesn’t intend to join the Huangshan Sect?
He originally thought that Yang Chen’s hesitation was because of him personally, but there was no anger in Yang Chen’s eyes, which obviously had nothing to do with him. Yang Chen had no intention of joining their Huangshan Sect at all.
This made him hesitate on the spot, becoming somewhat anxious.
The elder of the Linghe Sect saw that the opportunity had come and hurried to open his mouth. He was extremely happy now, thinking that Yang Chen was neither interested in women nor in the orthodox alchemy of the Huangshan Sect, so what was he interested in? Their Linghe Sect might not have anything else, but they had plenty of Spirit Stones. Was Yang Chen interested in Spirit Stones?
Yang Chen stopped him before he could say anything: “Please wait, senior.”
He couldn’t help but laugh, originally intending to tactfully reject them one by one, but seeing that they were all sincere, it seemed that he could only state his true thoughts.
Except for Linghe Sect, Yanhua Pool, Huangshan Sect, as well as some other smaller sects’ leaders and family heads, neither Ziyang Sect nor Ming Emperor Sect had sent anyone here. Yang Chen was not surprised by this. Both of these sects had some resentments against him and wouldn’t submit to him just because of his performance in alchemy today.

People like Elder Yu with such broad-mindedness were indeed rare to see.
With this in mind, Yang Chen clasped his hands in salute: “Everyone, please go back. It’s not that Yang Chen is proud, but the arrival of all the sects has caught me off guard, and I’m temporarily undecided and can’t make a decision. After I ponder for a few more days, if I really have a decision, I will visit in person and explain my intentions..”
