"Sir, your dishes are all here."
"Sir, I'm a pill refiner."
The Hundred Daybreaks Inn's waiter smiled radiantly, then poured Ye Zichen a cup of wine.
The waiter felt as if spring had truly arrived. During Ye Zichen's stay, he'd made a ton of money.
Given his status, it would be difficult for him to even find a wife.
But just a few days ago, he'd found himself a beautiful young woman. Of course, part of this was because of his glib tongue, but most of it was because of his bulging pockets.
Every night, he'd thank his sharp eyes for dragging Ye Zichen to the inn. He now regarded Ye Zichen as his savior and waited on him with utmost care.
"Sorry to trouble you, but I don't need you to take care of me. Go back to your business."
He nodded at the waiter. The waiter was a tactful man. When he saw that there were quite a few people at the table, he knew they had business to discuss. He bowed and left the private room, then closed the curtains before leaving. At the same time, he warned the workers in the store not to let anyone get close to Ye Zichen's private room.
After the waiter left, Ye Zichen waved his hand and placed a seal around his private room. He took a sip from his cup of immortal brew, and Bai Xiaosheng poured him another.
"Go on."
Ye Zichen minded his own business and ate. The two men sitting across from him flipped open their booklets and reported on Upheaval's recent developments.
"Boss, our gang has stabilized, and we've recruited all of the Axe Gang's former members. Add to that the fact that we've been recruiting new members, and our current scale is far greater than the Axe Gang's. We have 2,743 body cultivators, 1,140 false spiritual body cultivators, 120 spiritual body cultivators, thirty-seven entering immortality cultivators, and six human immortals. "
The one reporting was none other than the scar-faced Wei Jie, the man Ye Zichen had promoted to gang leader. Back when he'd been gang leader, Ye Zichen had refined a furnace of pills for him to help him raise his cultivation.
When he found out Ye Zichen was a pill refiner, Wei Jie was as dumbfounded as a wooden chicken. Then, he was overjoyed and even more determined to follow Ye Zichen.
Wei Jie was already at the early stage of entering immortality. Sitting next to him was the current vice leader of the gang, Yuan Huo.
Speaking of Yuan Huo, if it weren't for the fact that Zhao Ye had such a close relationship with Huang Aogu, Yuan Huo would have been the leader of the gang. If Ye Zichen hadn't killed Huang Aogu and Zhao Ye, he might have been stuck in second place for the rest of his life. Now that he'd joined Upheaval, he'd finally seen the light. He'd even become a deputy gang leader, a position of power and authority. He was extremely grateful to Ye Zichen.
"There are actually six Human Immortals?"
Ye Zichen put his chopsticks down on the table. He wasn't particularly surprised that there were so many Body Tempering and Spiritual Body level warriors. The thirteenth district didn't lack fighters of this level. As long as one had enough money, they could get as many as they wanted.
What he cared about were the six Human Immortals. Although Human Immortals weren't much in the 72 Districts, finding six Human Immortals in the Mortal Great District was no easy task.
"That's right. We are also quite surprised that you managed to recruit six Human Immortals. This time, we have also brought those six Human Immortals with us. Should we let them in to meet you?"
Yuan Huo spoke up. After getting Ye Zichen's approval, he clapped his hands.
Not long after, five men and a woman appeared in the private room.
"Your Excellency, these are the six Human Immortal experts we recruited. This young one is Talon, an early-stage human immortal. That chubby one is Li Mo, also an early-stage human immortal. And this one …. "
Yuan Huo smiled as he introduced them. Although he was a former member of the Axe Gang, he now considered himself a member of Upheaval. He was delighted to have recruited these human immortal experts.
"And this one, the only female of our six Human Immortals, Yue Zhilan! Don't underestimate her just because she's a woman, but she's a peak human immortal expert. "
"Is that so?"
Ye Zichen nodded and smiled. Yue Zhilan looked to be in her thirties. Her long, black hair was tied up in a bun, her figure was slender, and her waist was slender. Her eyes were especially alluring, and she looked like a ripe peach.
"Your Excellency."
When she noticed Ye Zichen's gaze, Yue Zhilan hurriedly bowed. However, her large, limpid eyes were misty as she looked Ye Zichen up and down. Clearly, she was very curious about him.
Upheaval had been founded after suppressing the Axe Gang. Everyone in Raging Flame City knew this. Although Wei Jie and Yuan Huo had been pushed to the surface, everyone knew that they were merely spokespeople. There was someone else behind the scenes.
Especially since Upheaval had taken over the Axe Gang. That was the same as declaring war on the Profound Great District's Axe Gang. Everyone thought they'd keep a low profile, but to everyone's astonishment, Upheaval only grew more and more high-profile. They constantly expanded their influence and recruited new talents. This only made people even more curious about Upheaval's backer.
"Are you a bit disappointed?"
Ye Zichen could sense the six human immortals sizing him up. He smiled, but they just smiled sheepishly and didn't respond.
However, in their hearts, they were somewhat disappointed. Ye Zichen was just too young.
"I know you've made your choices, but I can promise you right now that joining Upheaval is absolutely the best choice for you. Furthermore, in the near future, Upheaval will definitely become a peak-level faction in the four great districts, and perhaps even on the Divine Mountains. I have to say, you've got a good eye for joining us. "
With that, Ye Zichen waved his hand, and six bottles of pills appeared on the table.
"Here are six bottles of Human Immortal Pills. You're all human immortal experts, so these pills should be the most valuable to you. Consider them a greeting gift for meeting me!"
As soon as the pills appeared, the human immortals were so shocked they couldn't speak. The seventy-two districts lacked pills the most, yet the mastermind behind their gang had just pulled out six bottles of Human Immortal Pills!
After all, these were fifth-grade immortal pills. Only a fifth-grade pill refiner could refine them.
Seeing the expressions on the Human Immortal experts' faces, Wei Jie and Yuan Huo laughed. When Ye Zichen placed the pills in front of them, their expressions were the same.
"What are you standing around for? His Excellency gave them to you, so hurry up and take them."
Yuan Huo smiled at them. The human immortals hurriedly put the pills away, as if they were afraid Ye Zichen would go back on his word.
They uncorked the bottles, and when they smelled the refreshing fragrance, they were even more certain that these were Human Immortal Pills.
The human immortals couldn't calm down for a long time. After a while, the only female human immortal, Yue Zhilan, clutched the pills and asked carefully, "Your Excellency, these pills ….
"Milord, this pill … did you make it?"
In order to make sure they did their best for the gang, Ye Zichen didn't bother hiding his smile and nodded.
