Chapter 94: Chapter 94- Clan Leader of the Zhang Clan

Even if the Second Elder had a bellyful of frustration, he couldn’t take it out on him because he was an alchemist. As could be seen from the respectful way they addressed him. It had changed from young friend to Sir Alchemist.

Of course, Yang Chen was doing his part to deserve the honorifics from them. He had shown the Zhang clan his alchemy skills and had refined two tier 1 pills in these two days to somewhat heal the injuries of the first elder.

As could be seen from the gradually recovering colour of his face.

What the second elder and the Zhang clan didn’t know was that what he fed the first elder was not any healing pill, but a craftily hidden slow poison.

On the surface, it showed that the person was slowly recovering his vitality when in fact it was slowly killing them.

Since nobody here knew much about alchemy, it was easy for Yang Chen to pass the pill as the healing pill.

After rebuking the second elder some more until their face turned green, he excited the place and returned to his room.

Why was he showing malice to those who were treating him kindly? The reason was simple, it was because it was that Zhang clan.

One shouldn’t just simply believe what they see, on the outside the clan might look all upright and decent, but Yang Chen knew very well how rotten the members of this clan were. If he wanted to dig into their wrongdoings, he could dig thousands of them.

Even now using his [Nature’s Boundless Eyes], he could see the servants being abused in the outer courtyard. Yang Chen was not so naïve to think that the hospitality extended towards him was without any strings attached.

They have only given him this treatment because he was an alchemist and they were in need of his skills. Other than that, they were also thinking along the lines of recruiting him. After all, if a family like the Zhang clan who were only a tyrant of a small city, were to employ an alchemist, it would be like a blessing from the heavens.

Not only would they be able to enjoy exclusive pills and elixirs that the alchemist refines, they could also easily dominate the market.

Even if it was an entry level alchemist they can create up to tier 2 pills. Tier 1 pills are already costly enough for most of the ordinary people, it could be imagined how expensive the tier two pills would be.

If the Zhang clan sold tier 2 pills they would soon be basking in money. What’s more, the pills were all coming from their personal alchemist hence they don’t even have to pay any fees.

Of course, Yang Chen didn’t have any plans to get employed by a clan that was soon going to be destroyed.

Heal the first elder? Hmph, why would he help his enemies? He had posed as an alchemist to successfully intrude them and thoroughly scout out their powers, all so that he can weaken them from within.

Once his enemies were weakened enough, he would then deal them the finishing blow thus taking out all of the pent up frustrations and lingering emotions surging within his body.

While Yang Chen was crafting his own plans, inside the main hall there was a hidden entrance that led towards the bottom most area of the hall.

This place was the treasury of the clan and also the place where their clan leader, Zhang Yuan cultivated.

At this moment, there were four other people currently gathered in this place. The four other people were none other than the elders of the Zhang clan Yang Chen had seen the other day.

"So what do you think second elder?" Zhang Yuan asked slowly opening his eyes from his cultivation.

The second elder who was called out, mused for a moment before answering what he thought.

"Although I cannot tell what his intentions are, his skills as an alchemist are real. I have checked the first elder’s vitals myself, he is no doubt slowly making progress. Gathering the ingredients he wants should be our priority".

Zhang Yuan nodded his head then turned towards the fourth elder who looked like he had something to say but was hesitating for some reason.

"Fourth Elder, if you have something to say, say it".

Hearing the clan head give his assent, the fourth elder finally opened his mouth "There is something that is bugging me about that Alchemist brat. I know you all see him highly and he has already shown his alchemist skills to us. But don’t you all find it weird too?"

"Why is an alchemist here in this remote region of all places? What are his motives? And why is he hiding his identity?".

"What are you trying to say, fourth elder?" Zhang Yuan asked for clarification.

"Clan leader, I tried to do some investigation on the background of the brat; however, I surprisingly found nothing. Shouldn’t an Alchemist like him have some reputation around this region?"

"But far from it, the Intel I got didn’t even mention any alchemist being around this region. It is as if he popped out of nowhere and at the exact time when we needed him"...

"Are you trying to say that he has some hidden motives behind approaching us?"...

"Well I wouldn’t discount the possibility"...

Zhang Yuan stroked his chin thinking deeply before shaking his head "Fourth elder it is good to be prudent but I believe you are being too hasty in your judgement. For an alchemist like him, anything that our Zhang clan has to offer wouldn’t even catch his eyes".

"With his pills alone, he can make as much money as he wants. If anything, we should think of it as a blessing that were able to get an alchemist in time to heal the first elder. Fulfil any orders that he has, it would be even better if we could win him over. That way, my Zhang clan will become the true overlord of this city. At that time it would be easy as an ant to squash the other two clans."
