I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1672 - 1676: I Can Handle It Myself

"I was wondering why Gu Xiao seemed so familiar, and I couldn't believe he was the mysterious Master Zhang."

"There couldn't be two such geniuses in the world at the same time. Now it seems like the world isn't so crazy after all."

Qing Kong and Zhan Xun exchanged glances. Now, they were faced with an even more troublesome problem—the person they intended to stop today turned out to be Master Zhang!

"This makes things difficult," Qing Kong scratched his head with a wry smile, "Both of us owe Master Zhang a huge favor. How are we supposed to stop him now?"

"Do we even need to stop him?" Zhan Xun chimed in, "The person who captivates the Third Princess is right in front of her. What are we waiting for? Shouldn't we just get ready for the celebration?"

"Hahaha, right, right, Third Princess, there's no need to hold back. Let's just go, shall we?"

"What's going on?" Hearing their conversation, Yan Tianyao was completely baffled.

What did they mean? Why did it seem like Qing Kong, Zhan Xun, and Lan Xin were all familiar with this Gu Xiao? But what was the situation? Wasn't this Gu Xiao a nobody? How did he suddenly become an Alchemist? And how did these four individuals cross paths in such a peculiar way? Could someone explain this to him?

"Hahaha, Your Majesty, let's just say, love comes too swiftly, like a tornado. I had crossed paths with the Princess before, but it wasn't the right time to reveal my identity, so the Princess didn't know it was me." Zhang Menglong chatted with them while performing alchemy.

At this moment, the person who found it hardest to accept this reality was naturally Lan Xin.

The person she desperately wanted to call off the engagement with had now become the perfect person in her mind. This world was indeed ever-changing.

"Why did he deceive me like this?" Lan Xin looked at Zhang Menglong, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.

In her view, Gu Xiao's actions were clearly a form of revenge against her.

He must have known about her desire to cancel the engagement for a long time. Due to dissatisfaction, he first created a seemingly perfect image, only to shatter it at the end, just to make her Lan Xin regret her decision.

For a young woman like Lan Xin, the emotional shock caused by such a drastic contrast was no less than being jilted at her own wedding.

By this time, Zhang Menglong had completed most of the elixir-making process. A drop of colorful liquid was suspended at the center of the medicine cauldron, emitting a captivating fragrance.

"Is this the Saint Grade Elixir?" Master Yun's eyes gleamed as he looked at the drop of liquid.

It was his first time witnessing the creation of a Saint Grade Elixir from such a close distance. Zhang Menglong's alchemy technique was unlike any other Alchemist he had ever seen.

Although alchemy is divided into various schools, these schools always circle around certain core principles.

However, Zhang Menglong's alchemy method felt entirely foreign to him, akin to comparing an elementary student with a graduate student.

He was sure that even another Alchemist capable of producing a Saint Grade Elixir wouldn't be able to refine the materials to this extent in such a short time.

"When did this kid learn this skill?" Gu Meng and his son could not only accept the situation but were also feeling a tinge of fear.

They hadn't forgotten the years of oppression and humiliation they had inflicted on Gu Xiao. If it wasn't for Gu Xiao's father being the head of the Gu Family, Gu Xiao's grave might have been several meters deep by now.

How influential can an Alchemist who can produce Saint Grade Elixirs be?

It can be said that with just a call, countless Divine Cultivation Realm Martial Artists would flock to his side. If he wished, his personal influence alone could overturn the entire Yanlan Empire, making even numerous guardians ineffective.

"Father, I think that boy changed after he was nearly hit by that fireball from the sky," Gu Qiufeng suddenly recalled, "Since then, he killed the supervisor, injured me, and even that person who was supposed to watch him died mysteriously. It seems like everything started from that moment."

"Yes," Gu Meng nodded, aligning his thoughts with Gu Qiufeng, "Though we don't know why he hid his abilities before if he wants to take revenge on us now, we might not have the strength to resist."

"Father, then should we..."

"Try to reconcile with him. Do you still want to harm him?" Gu Meng said, "Didn't you just hear? The Qing Family and the Zhan Family owe him a favor."

"A few days ago, Qing Kong invited a mysterious master to forge a Saint Grade weapon for him. Moreover, a mysterious person cured the patriarch of the Zhan Family. Could these two mysterious people be..."

"Not only are they the same person, but it's very likely this young man," Gu Meng said, "This young man has been frequently going out recently, playing such a role outside."

"Father, do you think he can really produce the Divine Vein Golden Core?" Gu Qiufeng asked somewhat enviously.

"If it's true that he saved the Zhan Family's patriarch, his alchemy level must be above Master Yun's. He might indeed be able to make it," Gu Meng said, but he suddenly changed his expression, "Having the skill to produce it and actually producing it are two different matters."

"Father, I understand what you mean."

"Hmph, don't forget, when a Saint Grade elixir is made, the World Force doesn't make it easy for it to take shape. He needs to withstand the World's Thunder Punishment. Although he's different now, he still relies on the flame that merged with his body. Essentially, he remains a non-cultivating waste. His abilities cannot withstand this thunder and lightning."

Just then, the elixir Zhang Menglong was refining reached its final stage. As the elixir's prototype completed its formation, the birth of the Saint Grade Elixir finally summoned the destruction of the World Force.

"It's really about to form!"

"The Divine Vein Golden Core, the legendary Saint Grade Elixir!"

"Seven-Colored Elixir Thunder! That's Seven-Colored Elixir Thunder!"

"This implies that the elixir's quality at this moment is superb, but the elixir thunder may require at least a Second Grade Divine Cultivation expert to withstand."

Everyone in the palace looked up at the sky. An occurrence like this involving a Saint Grade Alchemist had never happened in the Yanlan Empire, making this the first time such a scene unfolded before the public eye.

"Master, do you need help?" Among those present, only Qing Kong and Yan Tianyao were Divine Cultivation Realm experts. As the King, Yan Tianyao naturally wouldn't lower himself to offer assistance.

Although Qing Kong knew he would get injured if he forcibly took on this thunder, it would still be worth it to gain Zhang Menglong's favor. He vividly remembered how Zhang Menglong's elixir had effortlessly helped him recover from his previous tribulation thunder injuries.

"There's no need," Zhang Menglong shook his head, "It's just a small World Force. There's no need for Mr. Qing Kong to make a move; I can handle it myself."
