Divine War Pill Emperor

Jiang Chen knew they were looking for him for a reason.

But he really didn’t have time right now; he needed to refine a poison.

So, he bluntly sent them away.

Without showing them a shred of respect, he had already resolved to fight them to the bitter end.

No matter their objective, he had to be on guard against the Alchemist Guild.

Jiang Chen had been a President himself in the past; he knew just how dark the Alchemist Guild could be.

Even if they were friendly, he wouldn’t let his guard down.

"Come back tomorrow!"

The moment he said that, the atmosphere in the Jiang Family estate instantly froze.

Everyone was shocked, astonished, and in utter disbelief.

Never mind Master Qin; even Xiao Gu was so angry he jumped out of his chair.

He was gnashing his teeth.

’Arrogant! Unbelievably arrogant! He won’t even show our President any respect, telling him to come back tomorrow.’

’Haha, he’s asking for death. Messing with me is one thing, but he dares provoke our President? He’s dead for sure.’

Xiao Gu hated Jiang Chen down to his very bones.

Now, hearing Jiang Chen’s words, he was overcome with schadenfreude.

He hoped the President would kill Jiang Chen in a fit of rage.

As for the members of the Jiang Family, they were all petrified on the spot.

They had thought the Jiang Family was finally safe.

And now, with a single sentence, Jiang Chen had gravely offended the President of the Alchemist Guild.

Telling him to come back tomorrow, of all things.

What kind of status did Master Qin have? He was the President of the Alchemist Guild!

Every member of the Jiang Family felt the urge to vomit blood.

Jiang Han, the Jiang Family Patriarch, was on the verge of despair.

He could see that this son of his simply refused to play by the rules.

’Would it kill him to just act normally for once?’

At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to beat his son to death.

The perfectly good atmosphere had been shattered by a single sentence from Jiang Chen.

His heart turned ice-cold.

A chill ran down to the soles of his feet.

"Er..."

Master Qin was stunned for a long moment before he slowly withdrew the hand he had extended toward Jiang Chen. It felt strangely cold.

He took a long time to suppress the anger in his heart.

’This kid is arrogant, domineering, and looks down on everyone, carrying himself as if he’s the greatest under heaven.’

’The very pinnacle of arrogance.’

He had never met such an arrogant young man. Whether it was the Clan Leaders of the three great families or the City Lord from the City Lord’s Mansion, they were all respectful when they met him.

But this kid alone nearly made him choke with his very first words.

But then, Master Qin thought, ’This is the guy who can refine a Purple Gold Quality Foundation Strengthening Pill. Such arrogance seems almost justified.’

’It’s normal for young people to be a bit arrogant.’

He suppressed his anger and put on a smile once more.

"I see, Jiang Chen—no, Young Master Jiang. Since you’re busy today, I’ll come back tomorrow."

"I won’t disturb you any further. I’ll come back tomorrow."

"But don’t you go saying you’re busy again. I’m booking all of your time for tomorrow."

Master Qin wasn’t angry at all anymore. He was quite calm and even smiled at Jiang Chen.

Then, after a brief word with Jiang Han, he turned and walked out.

"Mm."

Jiang Chen responded nonchalantly.

THUD!

Xiao Gu fell flat on his butt. ’The President isn’t angry? He isn’t angry?’

He simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

And the President even said he would come back tomorrow to extend an invitation to Jiang Chen.

’Heavens, I must be seeing things.’

With a glance at Jiang Chen, Xiao Gu scrambled to his feet and hurried out after Master Qin.

Seeing Master Qin and Xiao Gu leave, all the members of the Jiang Family were dumbfounded.

They stared at Jiang Chen as if he were a monster.

They had thought Jiang Chen had offended Master Qin, but unexpectedly, Master Qin wasn’t angry at all and was even willing to come back tomorrow to invite him.

They all felt like their brains weren’t working properly.

WHIRR...

The more they thought about it, the more shocked they became.

Their brains short-circuited.

They wouldn’t have believed this scene was real even if they were beaten to death.

Jiang Chen shrugged and turned to leave.

Jiang Han snapped out of his daze.

He shouted, "Son, wait."

Jiang Chen asked in confusion, "Father, is there something else? I’m busy."

Jiang Han nearly stumbled again.

’He really is busy, isn’t he? Genuinely busy.’

Jiang Han then took a few steps forward, came before Jiang Chen, and glanced in the direction where Master Qin and Xiao Gu had disappeared from the Jiang Family estate.

He said, somewhat helplessly, "Do you know who that was?"

"That was Master Qin, the President of the Alchemist Guild."

Jiang Chen nodded. "I know. So what?"

"He’s just one Master Qin. Nothing special about him. He looks pretty much the same as the rest of us."

Jiang Han was on the verge of a breakdown.

This son of his was far too audacious.

’To think he’d say something like that.’

But it left him, his own father, speechless.

"Fine, fine. Just go back."

"I need to calm down."

His thoughts couldn’t keep up right now.

This son of his had more than just a few problems.

Jiang Chen’s departure certainly didn’t stop the clamor among the Jiang Family clansmen.

"Are you kidding me? Jiang Chen actually said he was busy and didn’t have time today, telling the President of the Alchemist Guild to come back tomorrow." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"But Chairman Qin actually agreed! What in the world is going on? Can someone tell me?"

"What’s happened to the world?"

They all knew Jiang Chen. There was really nothing impressive about him.

And yet, he had the young miss of the Treasure Elephant Pavilion, Murong Xiangming, come to see him personally, and now the President of the Alchemist Guild had come seeking an audience with him twice.

That level of prestige was astronomical, larger than the heavens.

Back in his courtyard, Jiang Chen paid no mind to anything else.

He set up a brazier, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to take deep breaths.

’Dealing with Xiao Gu and using the Divine Wind Fan twice nearly exhausted my Cultivation Power.’

He had rejected Master Qin, naturally, because his Cultivation had not yet recovered.

Second, he truly needed to refine a poison.

It was not only to protect himself but also to guard against any plots from the Alchemist Guild.

’With poison on me, no one can do anything to me.’

Although Jiang Chen had refined the Red Recovery Poison before, that type of poison was only effective if ingested.

If a large group of experts came to kill him, his Red Recovery Poison would be useless.

Therefore, what he needed to refine now was a poison suitable for wide-area use.

’Broken Soul. Colorless and odorless. Any cultivator below the Martial King realm will die upon smelling it.’

That’s right, the poison Jiang Chen was about to refine was called Broken Soul.

It was a gaseous poison that could disperse with the wind.

Moreover, it was colorless and odorless, perfect for large-scale use.

It could kill expert Martial Cultivators without them ever knowing what hit them.

The materials Jiang Chen had gotten from Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling were for refining Broken Soul.

’The situation is dire and the threat is imminent. I have no choice but to resort to this.’

Because of Xiao Gu, he understood that he had to refine this poison.

It was to prevent anyone from harming the Jiang Family.

Although the attitudes of many Jiang Family members were shameful, the Jiang Family was, after all, his roots.

Besides, his parents and relatives were in the Jiang Family, and the vast majority of the clansmen weren’t so wicked.

He had a reason to protect the Jiang Family.

As for this Chairman Qin, if he said he wouldn’t show him respect, he wouldn’t.

What kind of person was Jiang Chen? How could he show respect to the mere president of a branch guild?

He was once the head President. In his presence, Master Qin was nothing—not even worthy of carrying his shoes.
