Capítulo 1635: Chapter 1626: Old Friends
“I am here.”
The servant nodded respectfully, then spoke again, “If Master is looking for the Alliance Hierarch, it might not be a convenient ti right now…”
“Why?” Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but wonder.
“The Alliance Hierarch and the Vice Alliance Leader are currently entertaining important guests and specifically instructed that they not be disturbed,” said the servant.
Hearing this, Mo Wangchen nodded, his curiosity piqued.
Vice Alliance Leader?
“Could it be Fang Mu?” he muttered to himself, speculating.
The Guest Elder token in his hand was handed over to him by Master Fang Mu back in Fangtian City.
At that ti, Fang Mu was the Pavilion Master of the Alchemist Alliance branch in Fangtian City.
Unexpectedly, he had now beco the Vice Alliance Leader at the Alliance headquarters?
This surprised Mo Wangchen a bit.
But it was understandable since he had given Fang Mu quite a bit of guidance in the past.
“Are they in the seventh-floor Pill Tower?” Mo Wangchen asked.
The servant nodded and reminded again, “The Alliance Hierarch and Vice Alliance Leader are entertaining important guests…”
“I understand, I will be cautious.”
Mo Wangchen smiled and said no more, then started walking up the stairs with Little Ming Yue and ng Yurou.
They ca to the sixth floor of the tower, and Mo Wangchen stopped here.
There was a small reception area on the sixth floor, and Mo Wangchen planned to wait here until Elder Ling finished eting his guests before seeking him out.
He could also let Little Ming Yue rest here first.
“Oh?”
Just as Mo Wangchen sat down, an old man erged from a room at the back of the reception area. On usual days, rarely anyone ca to the sixth floor, so Mo Wangchen’s appearance naturally caught the old man’s attention imdiately.
He was initially stunned, then uttered in surprise, his face showing an incredible look of astonishnt.
Mo Wangchen instinctively turned his gaze and, upon seeing the old man, couldn’t help but be taken aback, then he smiled, “Master Xue Zheng, long ti no see.”
“Master Mo, is it really you?”
The old man was none other than Xue Zheng, whom Mo Wangchen had t in Jianye City in the past.
Xue Zheng wore a clearly incredulous expression as he ca up to Mo Wangchen, looking him up and down, and finally burst into laughter, “Master Mo, it really is you! How did you return to Tiannan?”
“I had so free ti, so I naturally had to co back and take a look. Passing through here, I thought to visit so old friends, and didn’t expect to run into Master Xue Zheng here.” Mo Wangchen replied with a smile.
For Xue Zheng, a living legend in Tiannan at the ti, Mo Wangchen’s sudden appearance was certainly a surprise.
He ordered the best tea to be served, seeing Mo Wangchen, it seed like there was an endless stream of words to chat about.
During the conversation, Mo Wangchen also learned that Xue Zheng now held the position of Honorary Vice Alliance Leader at the Alliance headquarters.
“Co on, Master Mo is back, I can’t be the only one to be happy. I’ll take you to see the Alliance Hierarch and the others, they’ll definitely be happy to know you’re back.” Saying this, Xue Zheng stood up first.
“I heard Elder Ling and Master Fang Mu are currently entertaining important guests? Perhaps it’s better not to disturb them?” Mo Wangchen said.
Xue Zheng imdiately shook his head and said solemnly, “What guests could be more important than Master Mo’s return?”
Hearing this, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but laugh wryly but did not hesitate and stood up as well.
After all, Little Ming Yue was also tired and needed a place to get a good rest soon.
He asked ng Yurou to watch over the little girl and, after making arrangents, followed Xue Zheng up to the seventh floor of the tower.
“Daoist Fellow Dan Shan, the requests from your Pill Dissolution Sect, I must say our Alchemist Alliance finds it hard to accept, shouldn’t we discuss it further?”
Just as they entered the seventh floor of the tower, from a room not far from Mo Wangchen, with the door tightly closed, ca an elderly voice. Mo Wangchen imdiately recognized this voice as coming from Elder Ling.
“Pill Dissolution Sect?”
He was taken aback, as if he recalled that it was a Sacred Land in the Heavenly Gang Star Domain, primarily focusing on alchemy.
In the past, when Mo Wangchen road the Heavenly Gang, he had so connections with the Saint Heir of the Pill Dissolution Sect.
That person relied on alchemy to prove the Emperor Realm and was a top-notch alchemy genius in the entire Heavenly Gang Star Domain at that ti.
Unexpectedly, the important guest the Alliance was entertaining today ca from the Pill Dissolution Sect?
“Daoist Fellow Ling, our Pill Dissolution Sect has already made concessions, you should be aware that with the current influence of the Alchemist Alliance, it is not enough to expand into Heavenly Gang. By collaborating with us, establishing a joint venture, you not only gain the protection of the Pill Dissolution Sect but I guarantee that no one will dare to make trouble. What reason do you have not to agree to these conditions?”
At this mont, in the room, Elder Ling and Fang Mu were sitting together, and across from them sat another old man, whose hair and beard were all white, and from his aura, his strength was far greater than either Elder Ling or Fang Mu.
The old man’s na was Dan Shan, and he was the Deacon Grand Elder of the Pill Dissolution Sect, specializing in foreign affairs.
Recently, the Alchemist Alliance had been showing a tendency to expand into the Heavenly Gang Star Domain, but due to its own lack of deep foundations, compared to those Sacred Lands, it was far behind. Once they started to develop in Heavenly Gang, they would surely face suppression from many local counterparts.
Indeed, they had no choice but to seek cooperation with the Pill Dissolution Sect.
However, the conditions proposed by Dan Shan sent by the Pill Dissolution Sect today were hard for the Alchemist Alliance to accept.
They not only wanted to take fifty percent of the monthly profits from the Alliance’s enterprises but also demanded the Alliance to hand over twenty percent of the annual gross profit as benefits for the Pill Dissolution Sect’s protection of the Alchemist Alliance.
Elder Ling was not foolish. After a brief consideration, he had already figured out the pros and cons.
If the Alchemist Alliance were to follow the Pill Dissolution Sect’s profit-taking terms, it not only wouldn’t gain any benefits but could even result in a losing deal.
“Daoist Fellow Dan Shan, your Pill Dissolution Sect’s conditions are too harsh for our Alliance. According to my previous discussions with the Alliance Hierarch, we can only take out at most twenty percent of the monthly profits, and the annual gross profit does not need to be handed over,” Fang Mu said.
As soon as these words were out, Dan Shan imdiately shook his head and said indifferently, “Then I’m afraid there is nothing more to discuss. You should be aware, without our Pill Dissolution Sect’s assistance, your Alchemist Alliance will find it very difficult to gain a foothold in Heavenly Gang.”
After speaking, he stood up, slightly cupped his hands, and said, “I won’t disturb you anymore; I shall first return to the Sect. If the two of you change your mind, feel free to send soone to inform us at the Pill Dissolution Sect.”
“Haha, Elder Ling, for the Alliance’s expansion, why should we seek others’ help? If needed, just tell , as a Guest Alchemist of the Alliance, I should do sothing beneficial for the Alliance.”
Just as Dan Shan stood up and was about to leave, suddenly a light chuckle ca from outside, and in the next mont, soone pushed the door open, revealing Mo Wangchen and Xue Zheng entering.
