Nine Dragons Supreme God

Chapter 38 Presiding over the alchemy

Azurewing Kingdom, Imperial City, Jun Family Residence.

"what!"

Upon hearing the devastating news, Jun Fangze suddenly jumped up from his seat and smashed the sandalwood table beside him to pieces with a single palm strike.

An uncontrollable raging anger erupted from his chest, like a furious lion, violent, ferocious, and filled with chilling killing intent.

"Who is it? Who has the audacity to kill even my own child!"

"If I find out who it is, I'll skin your whole family alive and leave their bodies to be eaten by wild dogs in the wilderness!"

"Father, although we have lost our third brother, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Please calm down and do not get angry."

The one who spoke was a tall, elegant young man dressed in white.

The young man in white was handsome and bright, with striking eyebrows that reached his temples. His attire was simple yet elegant and dignified.

His hands were long, white, slender, and soft, with neatly trimmed nails. Such hands would probably make even women envious.

However, his demeanor still retained the air of a man, and there was a hint of arrogance between his brows.

"According to the news, the death of the third brother was caused by the Jin family's Plum Blossom Hand, and Jin Shiming, the third elder of the Jin family, is the most suspicious."

"Ruyi, are you saying that Jin Shiming, that old dog, didn't want his granddaughter Jin Ling'er to marry into the Jun family, so he resorted to desperate measures?"

After venting his anger, Jun Fangze gradually calmed down.

As Jun Ruyi said, the dead cannot be brought back to life. The most important thing now is to find the real culprit, avenge Jun Ruma, and do everything possible to restore the Jun family's reputation and honor.

"Although on the surface, Jin Shiming seems to be the most suspicious and the most likely murderer of my third brother, I believe that this matter is not simple, and the truth and connections involved need to be investigated."

Jun Ruyi appeared more composed and calm than Jun Fangze. It would be unwise for her to rashly attack an elder from a first-class family in the capital.

Jun Fangze gazed at his son.

He had three sons.

The eldest son, Junruhu, displayed astonishing talent in martial arts. He was born with the strength of a dragon and an elephant, as powerful as a god. From the day he entered the martial arts world, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, progressing at a godlike speed.

Unfortunately, Jun Ruhu was a simple-minded fool with a very slow brain.

The deceased young son, Jun Ruma, was exceptionally talented in martial arts, even in the imperial city where geniuses abounded. He was also intelligent and quick-witted from a young age, and a very opinionated person.

Unfortunately, he was too arrogant and stubborn by nature, and in Jun Fangze's view, he would never achieve great things.

Jun Fangze valued his second son, Jun Ruyi, the most.

Besides displaying extraordinary martial arts talent from a young age, Jun Ruyi is also elegant, calm, graceful and agile, resourceful, observant, meticulous, and rarely makes mistakes.

Although Jun Ruyi is arrogant, compared to Jun Ruma, she knows how to restrain her sharpness and knows what to say in what situation.

If one were to pinpoint Jun Ruyi's weakness, perhaps it would be his womanizing ways.

"Ruyi, you have never disappointed your father. I am sending you this time, and I believe the truth will soon come to light."

After a long while, Jun Fangze sighed deeply, seemingly exhausted, and waved his hand, saying...

"Go, though I believe in your abilities, but please be careful."

He has already lost his young son; Jun Ruyi must not suffer any more mishaps.

"Thank you for your care, Father. I will set off for Jianye City immediately."

Jun Ruyi bowed and accepted the order, her expression slightly solemn.

He had a vague premonition that perhaps this time, the opponent he faced was no less intelligent than himself.

Meanwhile, far away in the western region of the Azurewing Kingdom, in Jianye City, at the Alchemist Guild.

A petite woman dressed in an elegant light blue dress strolled to the crystal jade door of the medium-sized alchemy room. Her expression looked rather tense.

But just as she was about to step inside, she heard a series of discussions, filled with dissatisfaction, coming from the alchemy room.

"I heard that the person who will be hosting this alchemy discussion meeting is actually that little girl, Mo Xinyi. I feel like I'm still dreaming."

"Huangshan, this kid is someone you trained. I never would have guessed that you, who were so unassuming, could produce such an outstanding disciple. Now he's actually riding on our heads."

"Huangshan, you truly live up to the old saying, 'Teach your apprentice, and you'll starve.' What are your thoughts on this?"

"Stop teasing me, all of you. I, Huang Shan, know my own abilities. I don't know what kind of luck that little girl Mo Xinyi had. She was inexplicably chosen by the president and taken on as an apprentice the other day. I've been wondering about this myself."

"Even if that girl becomes the guild master's apprentice, it's a bit too much for her to preside over the alchemists' alchemy process."

"In my opinion, Mo Xinyi must have used some underhanded means and connections to gain the president's favor."

"The president is really getting old. He's so senile that he's done such an absurd thing. No, I must report this to the Imperial City General Association and have the General Association President take a look at the old man's health to see what's wrong with him."

"I bet this old guy isn't having a problem down there, but rather that some people have gone mad with him!"

These words immediately sparked a burst of laughter, which contained a hint of arrogance, a touch of disdain, and even more confusion and dissatisfaction.

"Ahem." Mo Xinyi, who was still looking tense and anxious, couldn't help but feel scared when she heard the vulgar and offensive words. She mustered up her courage and pushed open the door.

It would have been better if she hadn't shown up; the moment she did, everyone present looked at her with disdain and contempt.

Mo Xinyi naturally became the target of public criticism.

The three first-grade alchemists, including Huang Shan, and even some alchemy apprentices present, all raised their eyebrows high, their expressions filled with utter disdain.

Even though Mo Xinyi was the host personally appointed by the president for this alchemy gathering, no one present took her seriously.

If a high-ranking and renowned alchemist were to arrive in the Azure Wing Kingdom, everyone would be convinced of his abilities.

But Mo Xinyi was a girl they had spent six years together, and whose talent for alchemy was only so-so.

Before this, whether it was Huang Shan or other first-grade alchemists, including outstanding alchemy apprentices, they could summon Mo Xinyi at will, just like ordering her around as a servant.

Even though Mo Xinyi had no complaints and worked hard without any complaints, she suddenly rose to prominence overnight, like a little sparrow climbing a branch and becoming a phoenix.

This huge gap is not something everyone can accept.

It should be understood that in order to become the master of alchemy, one's alchemy skills and understanding of alchemy must be at least a step above those of the alchemists below him.
