Jiang Chen took a quick glance at Yan Qingcheng and turned his gaze away without saying a word. His face was brimming with confidence and vigor.
Yan Qingcheng's beautiful eyes couldn't help but tremble. A hint of surprise flickered in her eyes. She was very confident in her looks. In the entire Yan City, there wasn't a single man who looked at her as indifferent as Jiang Chen. She could feel that Jiang Chen was really calm, and wasn't putting up a facade.
There were only two explanations for this situation. One was that her charm wasn't enough. The other was that Jiang Chen's willpower was just too good. Yan Qingcheng had never doubted her charm. Therefore, it was really rare to see a young man with such willpower.
Plus, Jiang Chen was able to defeat an early Earth Immortal expert easily with his late Human Immortal cultivation base. This surprised Yan Qingcheng even more. She could be considered as a rare genius. Back then, she was already able to fight against a half-step Earth Immortal expert when she was still a late Human Immortal, but she wouldn't be a match for a true early Earth Immortal expert, let alone defeating an early Earth Immortal expert in a single strike. From this aspect, Yan Qingcheng felt that her talent was no match for this young man.
Apart from that, Jiang Chen's courage had also shocked and impressed Yan Qingcheng. A late Human Immortal dared to cause trouble in the Prefecture and injure so many people. If such a figure wasn't out of his mind, he must have a trump card and confidence.
Judging from Jiang Chen's appearance, he didn't look like a person with a problem in his mind. Plus, it was impossible for a person with a problem in his mind to defeat an early Earth Immortal expert.
In this case, Yan Qingcheng was very interested in this young man. She would like to see what trump card Jiang Chen had. How could he be so confident to injure so many people here?
"Eldest Miss, there has never been such a daring person in our City Lord's Mansion. Let this old man kill him. The dignity of our City Lord's Mansion is not to be challenged."
A mid Earth Immortal elder spoke. His body was surrounded by Immortal Qi. It seemed like he would immediately kill Jiang Chen as long as Yan Qingcheng gave the order.
"No need, I'll handle it."
Yan Qingcheng opened her mouth and said. Her gentle voice carried a hint of resoluteness, giving off the feeling of a heroine.
"Your name is Jiang Chen?"
Yan Qingcheng took a step forward and asked Jiang Chen.
"That's right."
Jiang Chen's tone was calm.
"I think you'll give me a good reason for injuring someone from the City Lord's Mansion."
Yan Qingcheng smiled faintly. This smile was just like her name, it could even charm a city.
"Because they provoked me."
Jiang Chen shrugged and said disapprovingly.
What?
Even Yan Qingcheng was stupefied for a short period of time. This was a far-fetched yet reasonable reason. As a matter of fact, she already knew everything that had happened here. Huang Liu wouldn't dare to lie in front of her. Huang Liu wasn't an idiot. Naturally, he wouldn't do such a thing if he lost his life because of the 50 low grade Immortal Meta Stones. Huang Liu wasn't a fool. Naturally, he wouldn't do such a thing.
Yan Qingcheng initially thought that Jiang Chen would tell her the reason, but she didn't expect that Jiang Chen's reason would be so powerful. Plus, Jiang Chen's Qi that could make people submit to him, this made Yan Qingcheng's interest in Jiang Chen even greater.
"What an arrogant brat! He's really audacious. It seems like he's really here to look for trouble."
"Big Miss, I think this man has gone mad. Let's not talk nonsense with him. Let's just kill him. Let's see how many lives he has after injuring someone in the Prefecture."
"Kill him. He's too arrogant. He's just a puny late Human Immortal. Does he really think that he's a powerful figure?"
… …..
All of a sudden, the people of the Prefecture were stirred up. They had seen arrogant people before, but they had never seen such an arrogant person. Humans could be arrogant, but this guy in front of them was incomparably arrogant.
"Jiang Chen, I heard that you want 100 thousand low grade Immortal Meta Stones? With just this carriage of herbs? "
Yan Qingcheng ignored the anger of the people behind her and continued to ask.
Jiang Chen nodded secretly. It seemed like Yan Qingcheng was not a reckless person. In addition to her identity and status in the prefecture, Jiang Chen felt that this person was more than enough for him to deal with Yan Qingcheng.
"Of course, this carriage of herbs isn't worth 100 thousand low grade Immortal Meta Stones, but I can turn these herbs into high grade pills in an instant."
Jiang Chen said calmly. This was his real purpose. He had always been meticulous in his work. He would never fight a battle that he wasn't confident in. From the fact that these villagers of Han Village had come all the way here to deliver these herbs, it showed that the status of an alchemist was incomparably respectable in the Immortal World, especially in a small place like One-Line-Sky.
Since he couldn't make use of his identity as an ascender, he had to make good use of his identity as an alchemist. With his alchemy skills, it would be easy for him to refine these herbs into pills in the shortest time possible. If the people of the City Lord Mansion knew that he was an alchemist and saw his alchemy skills with their own eyes, one could imagine how they would treat him. If the City Lord Mansion didn't know how to handle an alchemist like him, it could only mean that the City Lord Mansion was an idiot. And obviously, an idiot wouldn't be able to rule Yan City for so long.
Sure enough, after listening to Jiang Chen's words, Yan Qingcheng's expression changed.
"You are an alchemist?"
Yan Qingcheng's beautiful eyes brightened.
"Of course."
Jiang Chen's tone was still as calm as before. He was paying close attention to all the people in the Prefecture. After hearing that he was an alchemist, the way they looked at him had changed. The anger and killing intent they had before had lessened, and a hint of respect had appeared in their eyes.
Jiang Chen instantly understood that he had underestimated the status of an alchemist in the Immortal World, especially in One-Line-Sky. If that was the case, he had bet on the right person. A high grade alchemist wasn't someone that ordinary people could afford to offend. It was pointless to injure these blind people. The one who was in the wrong wasn't Jiang Chen, but them. They could only blame themselves for offending a respectable alchemist.
"Words are no proof."
Yan Qingcheng said.
With a smile on his face, Jiang Chen gently grabbed the carriage with his big hand. Immediately, all the herbs on the carriage flew towards Jiang Chen. Under the control of Jiang Chen's soul power, these herbs were automatically divided into several pieces. The whole process was completed in an instant.
Seeing this, Yan Qingcheng's eyes brightened even more. As the eldest daughter of the Prefecture, although she wasn't an alchemist, she had a lot of experience and had some understanding of alchemy. She could see that the classification of these herbs by Jiang Chen was incomparably precise. The combination of each herb was the composition of a pill.
This point alone was enough to prove that Jiang Chen was an alchemist.
"My God."
Han Changling who was standing at the side was astonished as well. He had delivered a lot of herbs to the Prefecture, so he naturally had some knowledge about it. However, he had never thought that the ascender he saved was actually an alchemist. He knew all too well how important an alchemist was in this generation. Even the Prefecture Lord would have to treat a good alchemist with respect. If Jiang Chen was really a powerful alchemist, he wouldn't mind injuring so many people of the Prefecture. Even if he killed a few of them, it wouldn't be a big deal. Who would miss a good alchemist just because of a few guards?
"It can't be. Jiang Brother is actually an alchemist? No wonder he's so stubborn. He even asked for 100,000 low grade Immortal Meta Stones."
"Haha, I really didn't expect Brother Jiang to be an alchemist. If he can really refine these medicinal herbs into pills, he will definitely be warmly received by the City Lord's Mansion. When that time comes, not only will our Han Village not be in any danger, we will also benefit from it."
"Big Brother Jiang is truly amazing. I knew that he must have a trump card to be so confident."
… …..
The villagers of Han Village were excited. Just a moment ago, they were so nervous that they thought that not only would Jiang Chen be doomed, but the Han Village would also be doomed after offending the Prefecture. They never thought that Jiang Chen would have such a powerful trump card.
* Hu Hu … *
Jiang Chen flipped his palm and a sea of fire rushed out. The entrance of the Prefecture was instantly turned into a sea of fire. All the herbs were engulfed by the sea of fire. Crackling sounds could be heard from the inside as the herbs began to be smelted.
"What? How can there be such a concoction method? "
"That's right. It's impossible to smelt so many herbs at the same time. Plus, these herbs can be used to concoct different kinds of pills. Could it be that he is going to concoct different kinds of pills at the same time?"
"Impossible. This is absolutely impossible. Even the most powerful alchemist can't concoct so many kinds of pills at the same time."
… …..
The elders of the Prefecture were shocked. Their faces were filled with disbelief. They weren't alchemists, but they had seen alchemists concoct pills before. The reason why alchemists were so rare was because the concoction process was too complicated and troublesome. Ordinary people couldn't control it at all.
Therefore, even the alchemists of the City Governor's Mansion would have to smelt the medicinal ingredients one by one and then fuse them together. Even so, there was a certain chance of failure, not to mention refining many different kinds of pills at the same time.
Yan Qingcheng's eyes became brighter and brighter. She was shocked to find out that Jiang Chen was casually concocting pills. Every single herb was smelted quickly and then started to fuse. Different herbs were fused into different kinds of pills, and there was no change in the middle. This was simply shocking.
