One million low grade Immortal Meta Stones. Such a terrifying amount made many of them feel a heartache.
It would be a lie to say that he was not envious at all. In the Immortal Plane, Immortal Essence Stones were the most important thing. Every cultivator needed them and they could not be lacking.
However, they knew very well that apart from thanking Jiang Chen for helping Yan Dongliu solve the problem of the cold poison, Yan Dongliu also wanted to rope in Jiang Chen. Plus, they understood that as long as Jiang Chen worked for the Prefecture wholeheartedly, the value that he would bring to the Prefecture in the future wouldn't be less than a million.
Yan City was the overlord of this generation, and the City Lord Mansion was a giant among giants. It was not something that a small place like the Han Village could compare to. A million was an astronomical figure to the Han Village, but it was nothing to the City Lord Mansion, who had a lot of assets.
"Thank you, Prefecture."
Jiang Chen clasped his fists at Yan Dongliu. From now on, he, Jiang Chen, was considered a rich man. At least, he wouldn't have to worry about Immortal Meta Stones in a short period of time.
"Qingcheng, I have obtained great benefits this time and I need some time to digest them. Take good care of Jiang Chen. Everyone is dismissed."
Yan Dongliu said to Yan Qingcheng.
"Don't worry, daddy."
Yan Qingcheng smiled. As a matter of fact, all the matters in the Prefecture were basically handled by Yan Qingcheng. She was the only daughter of Yan Dongliu, but she was much more useful than any other man.
"Hahaha … …"
Yan Dongliu was in a good mood. He laughed heartily as he left the main hall with Yuan Hong. The cold poison that had troubled him for days had finally been resolved. Besides, he had also obtained great benefits from it. It was impossible for him to not be happy about it. There was no reason for him to be unhappy about the fact that the Prefecture had recruited a genius like Jiang Chen.
Yan Dongliu and Yuan Hong left the hall. Both of them were mighty Heaven Immortal experts and had the highest status in the Prefecture. They rarely appeared in the hall. If it wasn't for the special circumstances, they wouldn't have come today.
After the two of them left, the hall started to get lively. Those elders and guests started to chat and stood up. In an instant, they surrounded Jiang Chen. Given their arrogance, they would never have dreamed that they would be able to treat a young Human Immortal with such importance.
"Grandmaster Jiang, I didn't expect your alchemy skills to be so exquisite. I hope Grandmaster Jiang won't take our words to heart."
"That's right, Master Jiang. If I need anything in the future, I'll have to trouble Master Jiang to help me."
"Grandmaster Jiang has become an Alchemy Grandmaster at such a young age. You are indeed a rare genius in the world of Alchemy. We will be working for the City Lord's Mansion in the future, so we will certainly be disturbing you. Please forgive us."
…
Everyone was talking at the same time. This was a typical case of trying to curry favor with Jiang Chen. This was normal, no one wanted to offend a powerful alchemist. In the future, if they needed any pills, they would have to ask Jiang Chen for help. Therefore, it was very important for them to have a good relationship with Jiang Chen.
Such a scene made Jiang Chen extremely uncomfortable and gave him a headache. After casually saying a few words, he left the main hall and returned to his courtyard. Now that his position in the Prefecture had been established and he had obtained a million low grade Immortal Meta Stones, he would put all his attention on cultivation.
As for whether he could improve his cultivation base in a short period of time, Jiang Chen didn't really care. Anyway, he didn't have any enemies, so he didn't feel any sense of urgency. However, the imprint in his body was constantly threatening him. He knew very well that this imprint was cast by an incomparably powerful expert. If he didn't have the Immortal Mark to block it, the expert would immediately detect it.
Jiang Chen didn't like to be in a passive position, especially this kind of passive position. It made him feel that his life would be threatened at any time. Therefore, he must refine this imprint as soon as possible. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace.
Not long after Jiang Chen returned to his courtyard, Yan Qingcheng arrived as well. She was holding a storage pouch in her hand and her face was filled with a spring breeze smile. Jiang Chen didn't know that it was a miracle to see the Eldest Miss smiling so much in the Prefecture. Every noble woman had a cold and arrogant heart, especially those beauties who could cause the downfall of cities and kingdoms. They rarely smiled at others.
To Yan Qingcheng, seeing Jiang Chen made her happy. It was a kind of happiness that came from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't control it and couldn't control it.
"Eldest Miss."
Jiang Chen greeted.
"You don't have to be so polite, Young Master. Just call me Qingcheng in the future. I can see that Young Master is a few years older than Qingcheng. If you don't mind, I will call you Big Brother Jiang."
Yan Qingcheng smiled sweetly. When she called Big Brother Jiang, her face couldn't help but blush.
"Alright."
Jiang Chen smiled. He was a free and easy person, so he didn't really care about the way he was addressed.
"Big Brother Jiang, here's one million low grade Immortal Meta Stones. This is what you deserve. This time, by concocting the Ardent Yang Pill, you have eliminated father's cold poison and hidden danger. You have done a great service for the City Lord Mansion.
Said Yan Qingcheng.
"Eldest Miss, you don't have to worry about it. Plus, I didn't help you for nothing. Isn't this a million?"
Jiang Chen waved the storage pouch in his hand.
"Now that our Prefecture has a talent like Big Brother Jiang, I believe that it won't take long for our overall strength to surpass the other two major powers in Yan City. My father's biggest wish is to unify Yan City. Big Brother Jiang's appearance has given my father hope."
Said Yan Qingcheng.
"Oh? Could it be that there are other major powers in Yan City that can go against the Prefecture? "
Jiang Chen was stunned. He didn't think of this. One should know that a city like this was usually ruled by the Prefecture. The Prefecture basically represented everything. Very few major powers could go against the Prefecture. Listening to Yan Qingcheng's words, it seemed like there were two other major powers in Yan City that could go against the Prefecture.
However, this was also possible. Back in Fragrant Sky City, the Murong Family had the power to go against the Prefecture and they had been fighting each other constantly. "That's right.
"That's right. In addition to the Prefecture, there's also the Huang Family and Yi Yuan Association. Both of them are very influential major powers. Yi Yuan Association is slightly better as it mainly deals in business and won't have any conflicts with us. My father has a good relationship with the president of Yi Yuan Association. They are friendly and maintain a neutral stance. As for the Huang Family, they have been constantly fighting with us for various resources. They have two early Heaven Immortal experts and their subordinates are almost the same as our Prefecture. If there's a chance, they will never let go of the chance to destroy our Prefecture. That's why we didn't dare to spread the news of my father being afflicted by the cold poison. But now, the cold poison has been removed by Big Brother Jiang, so we don't have to worry about it anymore."
