685: Chapter 682 Brother Huang 685: Chapter 682 Brother Huang Master?!
Jia Liang and the surrounding Family Disciples were all utterly astonished, disbelievingly staring at Lin Pinghai, who was kneeling in front of Elder Sheng Yue.
Their minds went blank, no one could believe that Elder Sheng Yue, who looked like a beggar, emaciated, and thick-faced, and whom everyone previously thought slightly mad, could actually be Lin Pinghai’s master!
Who was Lin Pinghai?
Lin Pinghai was an elder of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild!
They had never heard that Lin Pinghai had a master!
Not to ntion them, even the two Direct Disciples who followed Lin Pinghai were stunned; they had also never heard their master ntion that Lin Pinghai had a master!
Actually, it wasn’t that Lin Pinghai didn’t want to tell them, but Elder Sheng Yue had once strictly ordered him not to speak of his own matters in front of others, and never acknowledged that Lin Pinghai was his Registered Disciple!
However, although Elder Sheng Yue did not acknowledge Lin Pinghai as his Registered Disciple, Lin Pinghai always revered Elder Sheng Yue as his master in his heart.
Because, without Elder Sheng Yue’s guidance, he could not possibly possess his current Alchemy Technique, nor could he have beco an elder of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild.
Just as Jia Liang and the others were frozen in disbelief, another group of people surged into the Great Hall from the main door.
Jia Liang and the others couldn’t help but look over.
This look terrified Jia Liang and the others, turning their faces pale with fear.
The newcors were none other than the Alchemist Grandmaster Guild President Chen Ye and the other elders of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild.
Chen Ye and all the elders from the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild surged into the Great Hall.
Initially filled with anger, upon seeing Lin Pinghai kneeling there, they all paused in shock.
When they clearly saw Elder Sheng Yue’s face, everyone was visibly excited.
Chen Ye, just like Lin Pinghai earlier, hurried to Elder Sheng Yue, knelt down, and kowtowed, saying, “Master!”
Jia Liang and Lin Pinghai’s Direct Disciples were shocked, staring blankly at the kneeling Chen Ye.
But then, half of the elders from the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild also quickly knelt down in front of Elder Sheng Yue, respectfully kowtowing, calling out, “Master!”
Master!
Jia Liang and the others felt as if Divine Thunder was crashing down upon them.
At this mont, the remaining half of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild’s elders ca forward to Elder Sheng Yue, all respectfully perford a grand salute, and said, “Greetings, Elder Sheng Yue!”
Elder!
This old man was actually one of the three legendary elders of their Alchemy Grandmaster Guild?
And was the chief among those three, Elder Sheng Yue!
Jia Liang and the others were yet again extrely shocked, finding it hard to believe as they looked at Elder Sheng Yue.
At this ti, Lin Yanhan, who had been buried under the ruins of the buildings on the opposite street, ca to his senses, struggled out of the rubble, and roared, “Old man, I will make you die, die!”
Having just crawled out, Lin Yanhan’s mind was still confused, and he did not see the situation inside the hall clearly.
After his outburst, he then looked toward the hall.
When he saw that mass of Alchemy Grandmaster Guild’s elders kneeling before Elder Sheng Yue, he was montarily stupefied, but even then, he hadn’t yet grasped what the scene before his eyes truly ant.
Elder Sheng Yue coldly looked at Lin Pinghai, who was kneeling before him, and said, “Is this the good son you’ve raised?”
Lin Pinghai’s entire body shivered with cold, and in panic and fear, he kowtowed and said, “Master, Han’er didn’t know your esteed identity and offended you.
Please spare his life.”
Chen Ye and the other elders did not dare to speak.
Master?!
Seeing his father address Elder Sheng Yue as Master, Lin Yihan finally ca to his senses as he kept kowtowing in panic, his eyes filled with terror and his face drained of color.
Elder Sheng Yue coldly said to Lin Pinghai, “If it weren’t for the fact that you are still half a registered disciple to , do you think he would still be alive?
However, while his death penalty can be spared, he cannot escape punishnt.
Do you know what you must do?”
Lin Pinghai continuously kowtowed, saying he knew and endlessly thanking his master.
Then he personally ordered for Lin Yihan to be taken away and imprisoned in the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild’s dungeon, where he would later face severe punishnt for his cris.
Only then did Elder Sheng Yue’s tense face relax sowhat.
He nodded and said to Lin Pinghai and Chen Ye, “You may all rise.” Although he was still annoyed in his heart, given the changed statuses of Lin Pinghai, Chen Ye, and the others, it was not appropriate for them to kneel in the great hall of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild Headquarters.
Lin Pinghai, Chen Ye, and the others respectfully agreed and stood up.
Elder Sheng Yue pointed at Huang Xiaolong and said, “His na is Huang Xiaolong, my direct disciple.
You should all co and address him as Brother Huang.”
Direct Disciple!
Chen Ye, Lin Pinghai, and the others were shocked as they looked at Huang Xiaolong.
They knew how strict Elder Sheng Yue was about taking disciples.
With their qualifications, they could only be made half registered disciples.
And now this young man!
Although they were surprised, none of them dared to take Elder Sheng Yue’s words lightly, and they quickly addressed Huang Xiaolong as Brother Huang—with sincere attitudes and not a trace of perfunctory.
Other guild elders, who were not even registered disciples of Elder Sheng Yue, also greeted Huang Xiaolong with bright smiles tinged with respect.
As the event of Elder Sheng Yue taking Huang Xiaolong as his disciple had only been witnessed by Xuanwu Mansion Master Feng Yang and the Supre Elders of Xuanwu Academy and was not publicized, Chen Ye, Lin Pinghai, and the others—who had always stayed in Pill King City indulging in alchemy for over twenty years—were unaware of it.
Moreover, they were naturally oblivious to Huang Xiaolong’s other identity as the direct disciple of Xuanwu Mansion Master Feng Yang.
However, seeing people like Chen Ye, the President of the Alchemist Grandmaster Guild, addressing him as a Brother, Huang Xiaolong, despite his confidence, felt sowhat at a loss.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s flustered deanor, Elder Sheng Yue’s eyes glead with a hint of schadenfreude.
In the end, Huang Xiaolong naturally passed the Alchemist test.
However, when Chen Ye and other guild elders learned through Jia Liang that Huang Xiaolong did not require a tripod furnace and had crafted the Holy-grade Elixir Formless Star Pill with ordinary Spiritual dicine, they were shocked and unanimously decided to grant Huang Xiaolong the status of an elder in the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild.
Actually, as long as one’s alchemy level reached that of a High-level Alchemy Grandmaster and they passed the assessnt, they could be promoted to an elder.
Due to Elder Sheng Yue, Huang Xiaolong was spared the assessnt process.
Of course, since the establishnt of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild, Huang Xiaolong was the first to be directly promoted from an alchemist to an elder.
Elder Sheng Yue had nothing to say about Chen Ye and the others’ decision to promote Huang Xiaolong to an elder of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild; in his view, given Huang Xiaolong’s alchemy skill, being an elder was indeed fitting.
Then, Chen Ye respectfully invited Elder Sheng Yue, Huang Xiaolong, and Shi Xiaofei to his mansion for a rest.
Seeing Elder Sheng Yue agree, Chen Ye, the Chairman of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild, could barely contain his joy.
As Huang Xiaolong and the others headed to Chen Ye’s mansion, news of Huang Xiaolong’s certification as an alchemist at the headquarters of the Alchemy Grandmaster Guild spread.
