Divine War Pill Emperor

"Young Master, what are you going to do with these materials?"

"They’re all for refining Poison Pills."

Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling were taken aback when Jiang Chen asked for the materials.

They had bought those materials on the side, yet Jiang Chen knew about every single one.

They couldn’t believe he wanted them, as they knew perfectly well these were used for refining Poison Pills and other poisons.

It was even clearly marked on Jiang Chen’s Elixir Recipe.

Jiang Chen said flatly, "Then I’m refining Poison Pills. Hurry up and bring them over."

Jiang Ling immediately took out all the materials and gave them to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen didn’t stand on ceremony, stuffing them all into his Spatial Ring in one go.

With that, he was gone.

"Young Master, do you need our help?"

The two asked eagerly. They were now quite accomplished Alchemists, capable enough to support the Jiang Family’s Elixir Workshop.

"No need!"

Jiang Chen waved his hand. He certainly didn’t need anyone’s help; he could handle it easily on his own.

Of course, while Jiang Chen was busy, the President of the Alchemist Guild, Master Qin, arrived in a hurry with Xiao Gu.

"Patriarch, the President of the Alchemist Guild, Master Qin, is here. He’s waiting outside."

A messenger from the Jiang Family immediately reported the momentous news to Jiang Han and the others.

The already heavy atmosphere in the Jiang Family’s main hall instantly turned to one of utter despair.

Someone shouted, "See? We’re finished! The President of the Alchemist Guild came to the Jiang Family personally to hold us accountable."

"Who can take responsibility for this?"

"Yeah, that bastard Jiang Chen was too reckless! Now we’re all doomed."

Jiang Han’s heart pounded wildly.

This news was undoubtedly terrifying.

He knew his son had made a mistake by driving Xiao Gu away.

And now Master Qin himself had come.

"All of you wait here. I will go personally and plead for forgiveness."

Jiang Han sighed. He knew he had no choice but to take the blame. Perhaps that way, he could spare the rest of the Jiang Family from their punishment.

Whether it would work or not, he had to try.

So, he hurried outside.

However, Jiang Men and a few other family members still followed him out.

Outside, Master Qin, dressed in a white robe with the Alchemist Guild’s emblem on his chest, stood with Xiao Gu.

When Jiang Han and the others saw this, their hearts sank.

’We’re in big trouble this time,’ he thought.

That Master Qin was a figure at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens. He alone could annihilate the entire Jiang Family with ease.

He walked over, trembling with trepidation.

Jiang Han led the way and immediately began, "President Qin, I’m sorry, our Jiang Family..."

He was about to list all of the Jiang Family’s wrongdoings.

He glanced at Xiao Gu, but although Xiao Gu looked angry, he showed no intention of lashing out.

This made him suspicious.

Before he could even speak, Master Qin had already grabbed both of Jiang Han’s hands and declared loudly, "Patriarch Jiang Han! I’ve heard so much about you."

"Don’t be so formal. My visit this time is rather abrupt, I admit."

What?

Jiang Han was stunned. Judging by his tone, it didn’t sound like he was here to condemn them.

And Master Qin had actually taken the initiative to grab his hands in a friendly manner. This left him overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, unable to believe it.

He was instantly speechless, not knowing what was going on.

He glanced at Xiao Gu and saw that he had no intention of speaking either.

"No, President Qin, our Jiang Family..."

He still wanted to speak of the Jiang Family’s transgressions, having already prepared his speech about his son’s misdeeds and his apology.

But Master Qin just chuckled and said, "Jiang Han, you’re a family Patriarch, after all. Why are you dithering? Aren’t you going to invite me in for a cup of tea?"

He was eager to see Jiang Chen, and a quick scan of the area revealed no sign of him.

Although he knew Jiang Han had something to say, he was sure it was just about the conflict with Xiao Gu.

He cut Jiang Han off entirely, remaining exceptionally friendly.

Jiang Han was utterly dumbfounded.

And the other members of the Jiang Family were even more so.

’Is President Qin always this agreeable?’

After all, he was a lofty and remote figure.

"President Qin, please, come in."

Jiang Han glanced at Xiao Gu again and added with a placating smile, "Elder Xiao Gu, please."

Xiao Gu actually nodded.

This left Jiang Han completely at a loss.

Everything was different from what he had expected. No, it was vastly different.

They clearly hadn’t come to condemn them.

This only made him more worried.

In the Jiang Family’s main hall, Master Qin had an amiable expression.

"Patriarch Jiang, to be honest with you, I came here to find your son, Jiang Chen."

"I sent Xiao Gu to invite him earlier, but he was unsuccessful..."

The entire Jiang Family froze. It seemed "unsuccessful" was putting it mildly.

One by one, they secretly glanced at Xiao Gu, and sure enough, he looked rather embarrassed.

"So, I came to find your son, Jiang Chen, myself. I hope you can forgive the intrusion."

Jiang Han was still flabbergasted. ’What is going on?’

He felt like he was in a dream.

President Qin was speaking personally and even seemed wary of the Jiang Family.

He hurriedly said, "Not at all! How could that be?"

"In fact, I hope President Qin will ’intrude’ often."

At this moment, he was finally starting to calm down.

Things were not as he had imagined. Not only was the Jiang Family fine, but it seemed they had struck it lucky.

However, everything seemed to be related to his son once again.

He had figured it out by now: Master Qin was here to see his son.

He immediately said, "President Qin, you wish to see my son? I’ll have someone call him over right away."

Jiang Han hoped that this time, his son wouldn’t provoke the President.

He quickly sent someone to summon Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen had just returned to his courtyard when he ran into the person his father had sent.

"Young Master, the Patriarch wants you in the main hall."

"Master Qin of the Alchemist Guild is in there."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen frowned.

"Master Qin came personally?"

"Heh, looks like I have no choice but to go see him."

He felt a flicker of annoyance. He had just gotten the materials and hadn’t had time to refine the poison. Time was of the essence, and he couldn’t afford to lose the initiative.

But now, Master Qin’s arrival had interrupted him, which was very irritating.

Despite this, he still headed straight for the Jiang Family’s main hall.

Before long, Jiang Chen appeared in the Jiang Family’s main hall.

He saw Xiao Gu, whom he had driven away before. As for the man in the white robe, Jiang Chen knew that he must be Master Qin.

"Master Qin, this is my son, Jiang Chen," Jiang Han said, gesturing to the young man as he entered.

Master Qin’s eyes lit up instantly.

He stared at Jiang Chen with a burning, shining gaze, as if he were looking at a priceless treasure.

He stood up in his excitement.

"Truly a talented and promising young man."

"Jiang Han, you have a fine son."

Master Qin was shocked to see that the young Jiang Chen emanated an extraordinary aura.

As he spoke, he rose and walked straight toward Jiang Chen, a broad smile on his face.

Jiang Chen, however, ignored Xiao Gu. Seeing the amiable Master Qin approach, he spoke flatly.

"You’re the President of the Alchemist Guild, Master Qin?"

Master Qin had already reached Jiang Chen and smiled, "That’s right, I am he."

"It’s a pleasure to meet you."

He extended his hand for a handshake.

But Jiang Chen was exceptionally indifferent and showed no intention of shaking it.

He said coolly, "You were looking for me, right? Sorry, but I’m busy today. If you want me, come back tomorrow!"
