"I see."
Jiang Chen nodded. The situation in Yan City was similar to Fragrant Sky City. Apart from Yi Yuan Association, the competition between the Huang Family and the City Lord's Mansion was the same as that between the Jiang Family and the Murong Family.
Of course, Fragrant Sky City and Yan City couldn't do anything about it. The Jiang Family and the Murong Family couldn't be compared to the major powers here. This was the Immortal World, a completely different level.
Jiang Chen also understood why Yan Qingcheng tried her best to rope him in yesterday. If an alchemist like him was roped in by the Huang Family, it would be a great blow to the City Lord's Mansion. This kind of blow might not be obvious in a short period of time, but after a long time, the gap between the two sides would be revealed. At that time, it would be a fatal blow to the City Lord's Mansion.
"By the way, where did Brother Jiang come from? Given your talent and alchemy skills, even if you go to a major sect in One-Line-Sky, you will definitely be valued and have a certain status. Why did you come to our City Lord's Mansion and walk together with the villagers of Han Family Village?"
Yan Qingcheng asked. She was very interested in the origin of Jiang Chen. There was no way she wouldn't be interested. An outstanding figure like Jiang Chen appearing in Yan City was a bit unusual.
"Miss Qingcheng, this is a secret of mine. I hope you won't make it difficult for me. I can only say that my appearance won't bring any harm to the City Lord's Mansion."
Jiang Chen said with a smile. There was nothing that he couldn't reveal about his identity as an ascendant, but because of the appearance of the soul imprint, his identity had become a little sensitive. Now, the Northern and Southern Dynasties of the Immortal World must be looking for his traces everywhere. Now that the soul imprint had disappeared, the only clue for the Northern and Southern Dynasties to find him was the ascendant. If they could locate the ascendant in a certain area and time, it would be very easy for them to find him.
Therefore, the ascendant had become the biggest secret of Jiang Chen after he arrived in the Immortal World. No matter what, he couldn't reveal it. If it wasn't done well, his life would be in danger. At that time, it would be too late for regrets.
"Alright, since Brother Jiang isn't willing to reveal it, Qingcheng naturally won't force you."
Yan Qingcheng said.
"Miss Qingcheng, when I concocted the Ardent Yang Pill earlier, I exhausted quite a bit of my soul energy. I need some time to recover."
Jiang Chen said in an extremely euphemistic manner.
"En, Big Brother Jiang can rest here. I won't disturb you any longer. If there's anything you need, Big Brother Jiang can summon Qingcheng anytime."
Yan Qingcheng promptly said. After that, she turned around and left. She didn't know why, but the moment she stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, Yan Qingcheng actually felt a bit reluctant. She understood in her heart that she might have taken a fancy to this talented and good-looking young man. However, it was a pity that he didn't seem to have any feelings for her.
Sigh!
Yan Qingcheng heaved a heavy sigh. Love was not something that could be forced. Everything was up to fate.
Looking at Yan Qingcheng's disappearing figure, Jiang Chen shook his head helplessly. How could he not feel Yan Qingcheng's affection towards him? However, he could only keep a respectful distance from her. There were some feelings that he couldn't bear. He already had Yan Chenyu and Wu Ningzhu. He wasn't willing to provoke other women.
Moreover, Jiang Chen had just arrived in the Immortal World. There were many places that he didn't know about. Now, all he wanted to do was to increase his cultivation base and establish a foothold in the Immortal World. His target was definitely not just a small Yan City or One-Line-Sky, but the entire Immortal Domain.
After Yan Qingcheng left, Jiang Chen chose to go into seclusion. Currently, there were 200,000 dragon marks in his body. The twelve-storey Zulong Tower had been restored to its perfect state. The Heavenly Saint Sword was equivalent to a peak Human Grade Immortal Tool. An ordinary Earth Grade Immortal Tool couldn't even be compared to it. These were all Jiang Chen's trump cards.
Right now, the most important thing for Jiang Chen was to get rid of the brand in his body. That brand was like a thorn in his flesh, and Jiang Chen wouldn't be happy if he didn't get rid of it.
Buzz … …
The Dragon Transformation Skill revolved to the extreme. The evolved Dragon Transformation Skill was much more terrifying than before. This was also the reason why Jiang Chen had the confidence to refine the imprint. However, the owner of the imprint was too powerful. With Jiang Chen's current cultivation base, he was afraid that it would take some time for him to completely refine the imprint.
In the next two days, Jiang Chen was completely immersed in the process of refining the imprint. This kind of single-minded refinement had indeed achieved great results. In just two days, about one-third of the imprint had been refined.
Creak!
The door of the courtyard was pushed open. Although Jiang Chen was in the room, his perception was very sharp. He immediately sensed it and withdrew his Qi. At this time, the door of his room was also pushed open. A silhouette entered Jiang Chen's sight.
This kind of situation annoyed Jiang Chen very much. What he hated the most in his life was people disturbing him when he was in seclusion. He wanted to see who it was before he went crazy.
The one standing at the entrance was a young man in clean blue clothes. He had a head full of thick black hair. He was handsome and had an extraordinary bearing. He seemed to be quite talented. He had already reached the late Earth Immortal realm at such a young age, which was on par with Yan Qingcheng. Such a cultivation base could be considered as one of the top geniuses in the entire Yan City.
Unfortunately, Jiang Chen didn't know this person. He had never seen him before.
"You are Jiang Chen?"
The incomer's tone was unfriendly. His eyes were constantly sizing up Jiang Chen with hostility.
"Do I owe you money?"
Asked Jiang Chen impatiently. They didn't know each other, but the incomer spoke in such a tone and attitude. I don't owe you money, so why are you pretending to be noble and virtuous? Jiang Chen hated people who were born with a sense of superiority and considered themselves geniuses.
"I'm Yuan Chengjun. Yuan Hong is my father."
Yuan Chengjun announced his name and even mentioned his father to show how noble his status in the City Lord Mansion was.
Yuan Hong's son was a late Earth Immortal genius. Such a young talent was indeed rare. With a Heaven Immortal father, it was no wonder that he was so arrogant.
"I'm not interested in who you are, but it's rude of you to barge into my room. Didn't your father teach you manners?"
Jiang Chen's tone was unfriendly. Not to mention Yuan Hong's son, even if it was Yan Dongliu's son, he wouldn't give a damn about it.
Jiang Chen's words stunned Yuan Chengjun. He never thought that Jiang Chen would dare to speak to him in such a tone, especially after knowing his identity.
One should know that there weren't many young men in the entire Yan City who dared to speak to him in such a tone, let alone in the Prefecture.
Furthermore, Jiang Chen didn't put him in his eyes at all. That kind of contempt had undoubtedly stimulated Yuan Chengjun's strong self-esteem.
"Jiang Chen, you're just a puny Human Immortal. How dare you be so arrogant in front of me? Do you believe that I won't slap you to death with a palm?"
Yuan Chengjun was infuriated. Not knowing why, he couldn't control his anger whenever he saw Jiang Chen.
"I advise you not to keep the word 'death' in your mouth, because you don't know how scary it is."
Jiang Chen said plainly.
"Humph! Jiang Chen, what else can you do besides alchemy? I won't argue with you for the sake that you concocted pills for the Prefecture Lord, but I have to remind you to stay away from Sister Qingcheng in the future. Otherwise, I'll definitely teach you a lesson. "
Yuan Chengjun harrumphed coldly and gave a warning to Jiang Chen.
He had gone out for training and had only returned yesterday. Immediately, he heard about Jiang Chen's deeds. What he couldn't stand was Yan Qingcheng's friendliness towards Jiang Chen. How could he stand it? Everyone in the Prefecture knew that he, Yuan Chengjun, had been pursuing Yan Qingcheng for a long time.
In everyone's eyes, he and Yan Qingcheng were a perfect match, a match made in heaven. But in fact, Yan Qingcheng had always been lukewarm to him.
Even so, Yuan Chengjun didn't give up on pursuing Yan Qingcheng. In his opinion, a peerless woman was supposed to be cold and arrogant, but Yan Qingcheng had never treated him the same way as she did to Jiang Chen.
He came to see Jiang Chen today mainly for two purposes. One was to threaten Jiang Chen, and the other was to see how outstanding the man that Yan Qingcheng fancied was. Now it seemed that he was very disappointed. Apart from alchemy, this Jiang Chen was inferior to him in terms of looks, cultivation, strength and charm. Compared to him, Jiang Chen was simply incomparable.
It would be better if he was defeated by a genius who was more outstanding than him. But now, he was defeated by a Worldly Immortal. This was simply a humiliation to him. He couldn't imagine that the arrogant Yan Qingcheng would have such an eyesight.
But no matter what, Yan Qingcheng belonged to him. If Jiang Chen wanted to snatch her away, he would never be polite to Jiang Chen.
"It's none of your business. Whoever Yan Qingcheng likes, it's her own business. I can't control it. If there's nothing else, please get lost at once. Don't delay my cultivation."
Jiang Chen waved his hand and said impatiently. He understood the purpose of Yuan Chengjun's visit, but this had nothing to do with him. In this aspect, he really didn't have time to play with Yuan Chengjun. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to offend Yuan Hong, he was afraid that he would have attacked him without hesitation. Even if the opponent was a late Earth Immortal expert, Jiang Chen wasn't afraid of him.
"What a good Jiang Chen. How can a puny Human Immortal be so arrogant? Remember my words clearly. I hope that you won't provoke me in the future. You should know better than anyone else the consequences of provoking me, Yuan Chengjun, in the Prefecture."
