Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 41 - You, a Person of Waste Body
41: Chapter 41 You, a Person of Waste Body
41 -41 You, a Person of Waste Body
Just as the two were preparing to leave the room, outside the door, Xue Zheng and Tang Zihan approached.
“Young Master Zhang Hao…”
Xue Zheng’s face bore a smile, his gaze merely sweeping over Mo Wangchen casually.
In his view, Mo Wangchen was probably just an attendant of Zhang Hao’s, so he didn’t pay much attention.
“Greetings to Master Xue Zheng!” Zhang Hao bowed slightly, as the other man was the only second-rank alchemist in Jianye City and commanded respect, even from him.
“Hehe, tomorrow I will be hosting a banquet at Piaoxiang Building to entertain a few friends, and I would like to invite Young Master Zhang Hao to join us.
Would you have the time?” Xue Zheng said with a slight smile.
The so-called entertainment of friends was merely his excuse, as his true purpose was to invite Zhang Hao specifically for a plant called Green Darkness Grass.
Zhang Hao was taken aback.
He had never had dealings with Xue Zheng before, so why would the latter suddenly think of inviting him?
Though puzzled, he responded truthfully, “I must not conceal from Master Xue Zheng that I will leave Jianye City tomorrow and head to the County Capital…”
“You’re leaving tomorrow?” Xue Zheng exclaimed in surprise and then furrowed his brows, “Then it seems you won’t be able to attend the banquet.
Frankly, the reason I wanted to invite Young Master Zhang Hao was mainly for the Green Darkness Grass…”
Green Darkness Grass was the main ingredient for the Returning Ruins Pill, and Xue Zheng did not want to give up on it.
Moreover, currently, he had achieved the eighth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and as long as no accidents occurred, he would certainly attempt to break through within three years.
Possessing the Returning Ruins Pill would significantly increase his chances of success!
“Green Darkness Grass?”
Upon hearing Xue Zheng’s words, Zhang Hao finally realized and understood why the other party had thought of inviting him.
Was Xue Zheng assuming that it was he who had competed for the Green Darkness Grass earlier?
“This…”
Zhang Hao frowned and glanced toward Mo Wangchen, who had remained silent.
Now that Mo Wangchen was his master, and his Alchemy Dao skill even surpassed that of Master Lin Qing, the acquisition of the Green Darkness Grass naturally had its purpose.
Moreover, with the Green Darkness Grass in Mo Wangchen’s possession, how could he, as a disciple, allow it to be handed over?
It seemed that Xue Zheng mistook Mo Wangchen for just an attendant by his side?
Just when he was about to clarify, he heard Mo Wangchen chuckle lightly, “I must not conceal from Master Xue Zheng, the Green Darkness Grass is also useful to me; otherwise, why would I have carelessly bid for it?”
“Uh?”
Upon hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, both Xue Zheng and Tang Zihan frowned, for the person who had bid for the Green Darkness Grass was not Zhang Hao but this young man?
He wasn’t Zhang Hao’s attendant?
“May I ask who this young friend is…”
Once he learned these details, Xue Zheng took another look at Mo Wangchen.
Being able to spend hundreds of thousands of Gold Coins on the auction of Green Darkness Grass and being in the same room as Zhang Hao, his identity couldn’t be simple.
Mo Wangchen smiled, having nothing to hide about his name, “Mo Wangchen!”
“Mo Wangchen?” Xue Zheng frowned, feeling that he had heard the name somewhere, but couldn’t quite remember where.
“You are Mo Wangchen?” However, as Xue Zheng pondered, Tang Zihan at his side couldn’t help but show surprise, “The Young Master of the Mo Family from Fangtian City?”
“If there isn’t a second young master in the Mo Family, then it must indeed be me…”
Mo Wangchen chuckled bitterly in his heart.
The reason the other party knew about him wasn’t because he was remarkable, but rather, probably because his reputation as a profligate Young Master had spread to Jianye City …
Upon hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, Xue Zheng suddenly realized.
Since Jianye City wasn’t far from Fangtian City, he had indeed heard a bit about the other party.
However, precisely because of that, Xue Zheng grew more puzzled.
What did Mo Wangchen need the Green Darkness Grass for?
“So, it’s Young Master Mo,” Xue Zheng smiled and then asked, “May I know what Young Master Mo needs the Green Darkness Grass for?”
In the past, although Xue Zheng was friendly, he had no respect for wastrels like Mo Wangchen, and if it weren’t for the Green Darkness Grass, he probably wouldn’t have bothered speaking more than a few words with him. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
“It has its uses,” Mo Wangchen smiled and didn’t reveal the reason.
The Green Darkness Grass was one of the ingredients for refining the “Nine Orifices Spirit Pill”, something he naturally couldn’t disclose.
Hmph!
However, as soon as his words fell, a cold snort from Tang Zihan came, “You, a Waste Body who isn’t even an Alchemist, what use could you have for this Green Darkness Grass?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room frowned.
Xue Zheng felt Tang Zihan was being too arrogant and reckless with her words.
Mo Wangchen was displeased.
At the doorway earlier, he already had a poor impression of Tang Zihan, and now, she still had such an attitude.
As for Zhang Hao, he understood immediately.
Now that Mo Wangchen was his master, who could boast of offering the Xuan Rank Martial Technique so willingly and had high Alchemy Dao Skill, how could anyone dare insult him?
“Tang Zihan!” Zhang Hao angrily shouted and was about to take action without further ado.
However, before he could draw his sword, Mo Wangchen stopped him.
His gaze fixed on Tang Zihan, his expression quite indifferent as he said, “Who decreed that one must be an Alchemist to have a use for the Green Darkness Grass?
Besides, I acquired it for 450,000 Gold Coins; what I use it for is none of your business, right?”
Tang Zihan bit her lip and stayed silent, having been taken aback by Zhang Hao’s scare.
She could clearly feel a chilling glance from Zhang Hao, as if he wanted to kill her.
How could this be?
Though she didn’t understand why the number one wastrel of Fangtian City, Young Master Mo, would be staying with Jianye City’s top talent, Zhang Hao, merely for her comment, Zhang Hao displayed killing intent toward her, which was almost unreasonable.
Suddenly, Tang Zihan felt as if by berating Mo Wangchen, Zhang Hao reacted as if she were insulting his elder.
Could this wastrel Young Master be Zhang Hao’s elder?
That was clearly impossible!
“Zihan, as a Pill Master, you must change your temperament.
Don’t be so arrogant; it will harm you later!” Xue Zheng reprimanded, then turned towards Mo Wangchen, “Please forgive her, Young Master Mo.
Zihan naturally has such a temperament, and it’s hard to change suddenly.
Her words earlier were quite offensive.
The Green Darkness Grass is extremely important to this old man …”
“Master Xue Zheng, no need for more words.
The Green Darkness Grass is also very important to me!” Mo Wangchen shook his head, cutting off Xue Zheng’s words, then no longer spoke.
He glanced at Zhang Hao and walked out of the room with him.
Seeing them leave directly, Xue Zheng sighed internally.
It seemed that the Green Darkness Grass was destined not to be his.
As he was fretting, just as Mo Wangchen reached the staircase, he paused and said faintly, “Master Xue Zheng needs the Green Darkness Grass for the Returning Ruins Pill, doesn’t he?”
“Why not try replacing it with Cold Crow Leaf, hehe …”
After saying that, Mo Wangchen left with Zhang Hao, not looking back.
