A few silhouettes stood in the middle of the sandy river, where the wind and sand were flying high in the sky.
"Chairman Han, what do you mean by this? You should know that Xiao Yan is a person that our four large sects have named to capture. As the Deputy Chairman of the Alchemist Alliance, don't tell me that you wish to intervene in this matter?"
Chen Zhen's face was gloomy. The four of them had naturally heard Han Dong's words clearly. The latter's calm appearance simply showed that he did not put their four great sects in his eyes!
How could they endure such a contemptuous attitude from the latter?
As Chen Zhen's words fell, the other three people beside him also cast their gazes towards Han Dong. The expressions on their faces were also unusually gloomy.
They had waited for this day for so long. Finally, they could capture Xiao Yan and obtain the Sky Extinction Steps. The Sky Extinction Ancient Tomb could also be opened. At that time, the four great sects would divide the natural treasures in the Sky Extinction Ancient Tomb. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
However, at this moment, Han Dong's sudden intervention had pushed Xiao Yan, the duck that was already cooked, away from them. The distance between them and the Sky Extinction Ancient Tomb had also been pulled apart. This time, they were willing to accept it.
"Four sect leaders, the reason why you have captured young friend Xiao Yan is none other than to obtain the 'Sky Extinction Steps' on him and open the 'Sky Extinction Ancient Tomb'. Why must you bitterly force him and insist on killing him?"
Han Dong smiled and shook his head. He gently stroked his beard with one hand and smiled faintly.
"Hmph, he killed hundreds of people from my sect. Do you want me to just let this matter go?!"
Jian Ming's eyes were filled with killing intent as he stared at Xiao Yan. His face was filled with anger. The extremely powerful aura in his body was constantly surging at this moment. The invisible void was violently fluctuating.
"Sect leader Jian Ming's words are too ridiculous. The four great clans under your Sky Sword Sect have tried to kill me several times. I only killed them to protect myself. Their deaths were brought upon by themselves. If you want to pursue the matter to the end, it seems to be because of the bounty issued by your four great sects!"
Xiao Yan crossed his arms over his chest when he heard Jian Ming's words. His face was filled with ridicule as he spoke.
"You!"
Jian Ming gritted his teeth. His old face was flushed red from anger, and the muscles at the corner of his eyes could not help but twitch violently. Although he wanted to say something, he realized that he could not say anything.
"Vice Guild Leader Han, today's matter has nothing to do with the Alchemist Alliance. I hope that Vice Guild Leader can give us some face and not let a Tier 3 Alchemist affect our relationship."
Chen Zhen stood up and bowed respectfully to Han Dong. The tone of his voice was quite respectful.
Although Han Dong was slightly weaker than them in terms of cultivation, he was a true Class 5 alchemist when it came to alchemy. Even Returnance experts, who were more powerful than him, would treat him with respect, so they obviously could not be careless.
"My Alchemist Alliance should not have interfered in today's matter, but mister Xiao Yan's accomplishments as an alchemist are the only one I have seen in so many years. You have become a Class 3 alchemist at such a young age, so I hope that we can invite mister Xiao Yan to join our Alchemist Alliance."
Han Dong once again turned around after his voice sounded. His face was filled with a peaceful smile as he looked at Xiao Yan behind him. His eyes seemed to be telling Xiao Yan that as long as he joined the Alchemist Alliance, the former would be willing to help him block these four people.
Xiao Yan involuntarily laughed in his heart when he sensed the intention of the old man in front of him. Could the old man's actions be considered coercion and temptation?
Of course, even if Han Dong did not do such a thing, Xiao Yan obviously would not turn down the Alchemist Alliance's invitation. After all, the Alchemist Alliance was directly related to the Pill Tower. It was a place that all the alchemists on the continent yearned to join.
All the truly powerful alchemists on the Yuanwu Continent gathered there. As an alchemist, being able to compete with them would be a great fortune without a doubt. As a result, Xiao Yan actually hoped that he would receive an invitation from the Alchemist Alliance one day.
However, he had never thought that the person who would invite him would actually be the vice president of the Alchemist Alliance.
On the other side, the expressions in the eyes of the four sect leaders involuntarily hardened when they heard the words that were spat out from Han Dong's mouth. Although they had already guessed the reason why Han Dong had intervened for Xiao Yan, their hearts still felt incomparably shocked when they heard Han Dong personally say it.
Xiao Yan's talent was actually able to move the people of the Alchemist Alliance. As the vice president of the Alchemist Alliance and a rank 5 alchemist, Han Dong had personally stepped forward for Xiao Yan. Just based on this point, one could see how important Xiao Yan was to Han Dong.
Indeed, such a young rank 3 alchemist was an extremely rare existence even in the Central Region, let alone the Western Region, which was a barren land on the continent.
The fact that a rank 3 alchemist was born here proved that his ability was definitely not something that an ordinary rank 3 alchemist could compare with.
Once Xiao Yan joined the Alchemist Alliance, his status would also change accordingly. At that time, Xiao Yan would represent the Alchemist Alliance and not just himself.
With Han Dong in front, if Xiao Yan really agreed to join the Alchemist Alliance, wouldn't this mean that there would immediately be a huge monster behind Xiao Yan to protect him? Moreover, this monster's background was not the slightest bit inferior to their Four Great Sects.
Moreover, from a certain point of view, the Alchemist Alliance was even more powerful than their Four Great Sects. Once both sides entered into a hostile relationship, they did not even have to think about the final outcome.
"Haha, perhaps the words just now were not official enough. Now, I, Han Dong, as the vice president of the Alchemist Alliance, formally invite Mister Xiao Yan to join our Alchemist Alliance."
Han Dong's eyes narrowed as he stared at Xiao Yan in front of him. His shriveled hand flipped in the air and a metal badge that was different from an ordinary alchemist badge appeared in Han Dong's palm.
"This is …"
Xiao Yan gently raised his eyebrows. This was a special badge that was issued by the Alchemist Alliance. Anyone who held this badge would receive the protection of the Alchemist Alliance. Even ordinary alchemists had to respectfully greet them when they saw them.
This was a symbol of status and also a display of one's status.
"Mister Xiao Yan, as long as you are willing to join our Alchemist Alliance, from now on, this badge will belong to you. At the same time, the Alchemist Alliance also has the obligation to protect your safety."
After Han Dong's words sounded, his gaze turned and the expression in his eyes immediately became stern. His gaze swept across Chen Zhen and the other three, as if he was intentionally warning them.
When he heard these words, Xiao Yan's heart involuntarily moved. He hesitated for a moment. After which, under the resentful and resentful gazes of Chen Zhen and the other three, he gently smiled and nodded, saying:
"The Alchemist Alliance is the place that every alchemist yearns for. To be personally invited by the vice president, this junior feels incomparably honored. This junior is more than happy to join the Alchemist Alliance!"
