"Elder Yao, sorry, I stopped my second brother. At the ti, most of the people in Elixir Valley sided with the elders’ council. If we were to fight them, it would only result in death with no purpose!"
Saying this, Fu Lengfeng looked apologetically at the dicine Saint:
"After stopping my second brother, we swallowed our anger and lived in secret, secretly cultivating our own strength until recently when we received news that you and Ling’er were still alive."
Turning to Jiang Chen and Ying Zi, Fu Lengfeng continued, "The last ti I went to the pharmaceutical conference, I actually wanted to see what kind of person was sheltering Elder Yao and Ling’er. When I saw you save that girl, I felt relieved. The invitation then was rely a ans to get acquainted and see if there was a chance to et Ling’er!"
"Later, I investigated you a bit and found that your power was much stronger than I initially thought. So, I evolved the idea of joint efforts to reclaim Elixir Valley’s control!"
Fu Lengfeng’s face turned solemn, and his voice grew serious: "Initially, I ca here to bring Ming Liang to reconnect with Elder Yao and Ling’er, but the Great Elder suddenly found and asked to bring Tian Chong."
"The Great Elder has absolute authority in Elixir Valley. Although my second brother and I have worked hard over the years, so within Elixir Valley support us; compared to the Great Elder’s power, we’re still quite weak. I couldn’t refuse!"
"After arriving, I didn’t expect to be received by Elder Yao, and even bumped into Ling’er coming ho from school at noon! I really wanted to reconnect, but I didn’t dare!"
"I was the one who suppressed the news of your survival when it returned to Elixir Valley, persuading the elders’ council that it was rely a disruption rumor because the Elixir Valley Pill Conference was approaching!"
Jiang Chen squinted his eyes, speaking in a low voice, "You say the ones who pursued you claid they had killed Elder Yao and the others?"
"Yes! That’s what the pursuers said back then!" Fu Lengfeng nodded.
Jiang Chen asked puzzledly, "Why did he deceive you all?"
"If it weren’t for him, Ling’er and I wouldn’t have escaped!"
The dicine Saint suddenly spoke, "The last leading pursuer was Jiang ng, a personal guard of the Lengjun brothers. He never believed I would kill the Lengjun brothers. In the final pursuit, Ling’er and I were trapped in the valley where you t us. He tead up with to kill the pursuers and returned with a head resembling mine, bloodied and battered, to report back!"
"What? Jiang ng..." Fu Lengfeng looked at the dicine Saint in shock, unable to believe it: "He’s now the Great Elder’s personal guard. He’s oppressed my second brother and quite a bit over the years, how could he..."
The dicine Saint glanced at Fu Lengfeng indifferently, "Though I don’t know what happened between you, I believe Jiang ng’s oppression of you is undoubtedly in protection."
"Protection..." Fu Lengfeng paused, then suddenly realized, "No wonder! No wonder he did that several tis..."
"I’m not interested in what happened between you!"
Jiang Chen raised his hand to interrupt Fu Lengfeng, staring straight into his eyes: "Why did you vehently deny the news after receiving word that Elder Yao and the others were alive? Is Elixir Valley still hunting them?"
Fu Lengfeng shook his head lightly, "Not really. It’s just that upon receiving the ssage, soone suggested bringing Ling’er back. I don’t want Ling’er to return. If she cos back, she’d end up a puppet with no other fate. Moreover, she might be forced to marry Tian Chong!"
Jiang Chen frowned, glancing at Tian Chong’s original seat, laughing coldly in his heart:
This Tian Chong, served his purpose by being killed!
"Lengfeng, what happened earlier?" The dicine Saint gently asked, his tone much softened.
"I only wanted Tian Chong to anger Mr. Jiang, so that Mr. Jiang would not go to Elixir Valley for the Pill Conference. Knowing what happened yesterday, I deeply regret inviting Mr. Jiang to Elixir Valley. Those people are all families affiliated with the Great Elder!"
Fu Lengfeng glanced at Jiang Chen, smiled bitterly, "You killed them, the Great Elder will surely trouble you. But if you don’t go to Elixir Valley, outside, they need to weigh the decision before acting against you; not everyone is as foolishly reckless as Tian Chong."
"But I didn’t expect, Mr. Jiang, you couldn’t hold back and even killed Tian Chong. Now, the Great Elder certainly won’t let you go!"
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, "Does this an that the Great Elder of Elixir Valley doesn’t trust you and had Tian Chong co along to keep an eye on you inviting to Elixir Valley?"
"Huh? Yes!"
Fu Lengfeng was montarily stunned, then nodded in agreent, urgently saying, "Mr. Jiang, now isn’t the ti to fuss over Tian Chong’s intentions; we should think about how to handle the Great Elder’s revenge!"
"No need to handle it!" Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.
Fu Lengfeng was taken aback, asked surprisedly, "What do you an?"
"You go back and tell your Great Elder, I, Jiang Chen, will certainly attend the Pill Conference!" Jiang Chen said calmly.
"What? You... you’re still going?"
Fu Lengfeng was amazed as he spoke, looking at Jiang Chen with a deep perplexity in his eyes.
...
Fu Lengfeng finally left.
Before leaving, he didn’t see Fu Ling’er, not because he didn’t want to, but Jiang Chen didn’t allow him to.
Fu Ling’er had just suffered the blow of Mo Bao and others’ deaths, and Jiang Chen feared Fu Ling’er couldn’t bear it if their past was brought up again upon seeing Fu Lengfeng.
When Fu Lengfeng left, he didn’t get an answer on why Jiang Chen wanted to go to Elixir Valley, only knowing Jiang Chen was sure to go, supported by dicine Saint and Supre Hu Sha!
After Fu Lengfeng left, Jiang Chen discussed with the dicine Saint and Supre Hu Sha all night until dawn the next day before returning to his room to rest.
Ring ring ring!
A telephone ringing sounded as Jiang Chen opened his eyes drowsily, glancing at the twilight outside the window, fumbling for his phone.
"Hello."
"Mr. Yan, I’ve got a shipnt coming to Fla Dragon tonight, can you help handle it?" A deep voice rang out.
Jiang Chen’s expression changed, instantly awake, his eyes turning, with a greedy tone: "What shipnt? Is it yet another lucrative business?"
"Mr. Yan, haven’t I told you? You acquire a pharmaceutical company, I provide goods for sale in your company, we split the profits fifty-fifty!"
Jiang Chen stiffened internally, tightly furrowing his brows, yet his words carried a slightly excited tone:
"Really? Is it that batch of your main-produced anti-cancer drugs? Haha! Mr. ng, you’re really generous; I’ve been eyeing this drug, not yet released worldwide!"
