Just like that, Master Bao Dan had joined the Cheng Family. When the elders heard about this, they were very happy.
The Cheng Family's development was too fast. However, as the number of people increased, the number of people who could assist them was too little.
Especially alchemists and blacksmiths. These were the most important strength of a faction.
If there weren't enough alchemists and blacksmiths, the entire Cheng Family's resources would dry up.
Therefore, all these years, the Cheng Family had recruited quite a number of alchemists.
However, it was very difficult to recruit a famous high-grade alchemist like Master Bao Dan.
Therefore, a high-grade alchemist was definitely what the Cheng Family needed the most.
With the addition of a Treasure Pill Grandmaster, they would naturally be able to greatly alleviate the burden of refining high-grade pills.
He couldn't possibly let Cheng Yu pay for those precious pills out of his own pocket. After all, that wasn't a long term solution.
The next day, Cheng Yu asked Master Bao Dan to pick a few talented alchemy disciples and let them learn from him.
When these people heard that they could learn alchemy from Master Bao Dan, they were very excited.
Obviously, these disciples also knew of Master Bao Dan's name. What they didn't expect was that Master Bao Dan had actually joined their Cheng Family. This was really a pleasant surprise.
When Shopkeeper He got to know of this news, he sighed in his heart.
He was very impressed by the Family Head's methods. Although he knew that the Family Head had his own reasons for asking Master Bao Dan to refine the Peerless Pill, he didn't expect the Family Head to have such thoughts and directly recruit Master Bao Dan.
What was even more unexpected was that Master Bao Dan had never been willing to join any faction.
Anyone who had a slight understanding of Master Bao Dan would know about this. Therefore, He Qian was even more curious about what method did the Family Head use to attract Master Bao Dan.
"Could it be because the Family Head really agreed to teach Master Bao Dan the refining method of the quasi-immortal pill?" He Qian could only think of this possibility.
After all, Master Bao Dan had looked for him because of this matter.
Regardless of what method Cheng Yu had used to make Grandmaster Baodan stay, this matter was quickly spread to every small cultivation city in the secular world.
Master Bao Dan, such a famous high-grade alchemist, staying in the Cheng Family and the Cheng Family's disciples coming and going from the small cultivation city, this matter was quickly known by others.
However, Cheng Yu didn't seem to have any intention of hiding this matter, so he didn't mind.
In fact, there was no need for Cheng Yu to conceal this matter.
When many people heard the news, although they were shocked, they respected and trusted the Cheng family even more.
First, even Great Master Baodan, who was unwilling to join any faction, joined the Cheng family. This was enough to show that the Cheng family was very powerful and had enough reasons to attract him.
First, it was because the Cheng family had a Grandmaster Bao Dan, so they didn't have to doubt the authenticity of the Cheng family's pills. They believed that as long as the Grandmaster Bao Dan was there, the quality of the Cheng family's pills would definitely not be bad.
It was precisely because of this that the pill business of the Treasure House suddenly became better than before.
This was because everyone was there for the fame and reputation of the Great Master Baodan.
They felt that since Grandmaster Baodan was a member of the Cheng family, then the Cheng family's pills were trustworthy.
Some of them even felt that the pills they bought in the Treasure House might be concocted by the Grandmaster Bao Dan. This was not something that could be found anywhere.
After all, the Grandmaster Bao Dan rarely sold pills to the outside world. But now, it was different. He had joined the Cheng family. Naturally, the Cheng family's pills needed him to concoct.
Otherwise, why would the Cheng family recruit him?
Although the matter of the Grandmaster Bao Dan had caused a sensation in the secular world, slowly, everyone accepted and got used to this matter. Naturally, they rarely talked about it.
On this day, a jade slip on Cheng Yu's body suddenly lit up.
"It's a message from the king? Could it be that the dynasty has already sent experts to find trouble with me? "When he saw the jade slip was actually sent by the White Sun Dynasty's king, Cheng Yu couldn't help but feel suspicious.
He had to admit that in his eyes, the people from the White Sun Dynasty were synonymous with the dynasty.
Although the entire White Sun Outer Dynasty was actually under his control, the White Sun Outer Dynasty was actually a force that he used to connect with the Empire.
Since there was news of the White Sun Dynasty, it was basically inseparable from the dynasty.
And when he thought of the matters related to the dynasty, his heart wasn't happy. This dynasty was like a hedgehog with thorns all over its body. The thorns had pierced into its flesh and no matter how hard it tried to pull them out, it felt like it couldn't be pulled out completely.
This caused him to feel very helpless, but he had no choice but to deal with it.
He only hoped that his power would be able to quickly grow and have the strength to fight against the dynasty. Then, he would no longer need to be secretive like now.
If worst comes to worst, they'll just have to fight fair and square.
However, he knew that they were still very far away from that day.
However, when Cheng Yu looked at the contents of the jade slip, he heaved a sigh of relief.
It turned out that this time, the news from the king had nothing to do with the dynasty. Instead, it was because the king had received the dissatisfaction of a few cities in his domain towards the Cheng family. He wanted them to come out and stand up for these cities.
And these cities were Hong City and a few other cities!
However, Hong Qing and the others would never have dreamed that they wanted the powers behind them to stand up for them. However, these powers had already become Cheng Yu's eyes.
Moreover, the king also asked Cheng Yu if he needed him to punish these city lords. This was to prevent these people from doing anything extreme to the Cheng family and implicating the White Sun Outer Dynasty.
If they didn't report it to Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu might even blame this matter on them and think that they had secretly arranged it. If that happened, then they would really be wronged.
After all, Cheng Yu could be said to be the master of the White Sun Outer Dynasty. Even if they knew that these cities might not be able to cause any trouble, they still had to communicate with Cheng Yu in advance.
They couldn't hurt Cheng Yu, but that didn't mean that they couldn't hurt the Cheng family.
After all, the Cheng family had so many disciples and not every disciple had Cheng Yu's strength. He was afraid that those people would do something crazy and hurt the Cheng family. That would be a big matter.
And if they didn't report it, then Cheng Yu would definitely blame the fault on the White Sun Outer Dynasty.
Ignore them! These four words were Cheng Yu's reply to the king.
He knew about the few cities in Hong City that the king mentioned in the jade slip. These were the few cities near the exit of Yungui Province.
He was indeed a bit surprised to know that because of the Cheng family's growth, it had actually affected the development of these cities.
However, he believed in natural selection and the weak being prey to the strong. This was the rule of this world. He had no sympathy for their situation.
