Chapter 25: President Du Bailei of the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce

"..."

Once Lai Peng finished speaking, his face was etched with a mournful expression.

"Experiencing attacks and bodily contraction?"

"Veins throughout the body coiling like gnarled tree roots?"

Upon hearing Lai Peng's account, Lin Feng was abruptly inspired by a thought.

He had come across such symptoms in the Thousand Green Pill Heart Records before.

Remarkably, that wasn't even indicative of Qi Deviation...

"What's the matter?"

"Can you truly cure the president?"

Observing Lin Feng's pensive expression, Lai Peng inquired.

"Well."

"I need to conduct a more thorough diagnosis to confirm. Can you take me to see the president of the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Feng remained prudent and refrained from making any promises without further examination.

"About that."

"I'm uncertain if President Du Bailei would be willing to meet you, so why not appraise these items first?"

Lai Peng offered a sheepish smile, aware that his standing within the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce was insufficient to casually arrange a meeting with the president.

"Alright."

"Of these five items, I've already identified three."

"They are, respectively, the Easy Spirit Pinecone, the Three-Leafed Yin Soul Grass, and the Aconite Snake Pattern Flower."

"However, I'm afraid I can't determine the pill furnace and the bottle."

Lin Feng relayed his findings to Lai Peng.

"What!"

"You truly identified them!"

"And you even discerned three of them! Are you certain you're not fabricating this?"

Lai Peng gazed at Lin Feng in astonishment. He had merely wanted Lin Feng to attempt identification, and even if he had failed, Lai Peng would have accepted the outcome.

To his surprise, Lin Feng had genuinely appraised three of the items.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

"These are the properties of the three spiritual plants."

"You may have an experienced alchemist confirm my conclusions."

Confidently, Lin Feng inscribed the properties of the three spiritual plants on the sheet of paper containing his assessment results.

"Wow!"

Lai Peng couldn't help but express his admiration, "It appears that you've genuinely identified these three treasures!"

Lin Feng had successfully demonstrated his expertise; however, due to Jiang Chen's interference, the results were significantly undervalued, and the rewards he received were minimal.

"By the way."

"When can you arrange for me to meet the president of the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Feng inquired, nodding his head.

"Allow me to inquire!"

"You've managed to identify these three treasures that have eluded the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce for years. It's quite probable that you'll be granted an audience with President Du Bailei."

Lai Peng nodded and promptly initiated contact with his connections to organize a meeting with President Du Bailei.

Simultaneously.

At the temporary encampment of the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce, outside the three-story white edifice.

"I understand!"

"I'll go report this to the higher-ups immediately!"

The female servant's face lit up with comprehension before she excused herself to relay the information to her superiors.

In reality,

Numerous people were aware that the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce President was unwell, and many sought to treat him.

When they arrived, they were confident and made grand promises.

Yet,

In the end, they were all powerless and left empty-handed.

As a result,

The majority of those who wished to attempt treating the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce President faced rejection.

However, Jiang Chen's status was exceptional.

Thus, the female servant reported the matter to the higher-ups with utmost respect.

Shortly thereafter,

The female servant reemerged, smiling as she said, "The President's condition has already improved somewhat. Upon learning that Young Master Jiang Chen has returned with expert alchemists, he was quite pleased and requests that Young Master Jiang Chen meet with him right away."

In truth,

The White Mountain Chamber of Commerce President didn't believe that the individuals Jiang Chen had brought could cure him.

However, many senior members of the Chamber of Commerce and the Jiang Clan had recently become close allies.

Furthermore, this marked Jiang Chen's second visit, and his accompaniment of alchemists demonstrated his concern.

Regardless of whether the ailment could be remedied, the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce held a favorable impression of Jiang Chen.

As a result,

He promptly agreed to meet with Jiang Chen.

"Excellent!"

"Please guide us!"

Jiang Chen nodded, smiling.

Shortly after,

Led by the female servant,

Jiang Chen, Ning Xian, and Qiu Liaoxi arrived at a serene chamber on the third floor.

They observed a man enshrouded in a black robe, his figure tall and slender.

This man was none other than the White Mountain Chamber of Commerce President.

'Villain's Eye!'

With a mere thought, Jiang Chen activated his ability, and the other individual's character panel materialized before him. Indeed, he was a supporting character!

[Name: Du Bailei

Realm: Early-stage Mysterious Platform

Status: Supporting character

Fate Value: 682]

'Mysterious Platform Realm!'

'I didn't anticipate Du Bailei would actually be a Mysterious Platform Realm cultivator.'

'The most powerful individual in all of Autumn Glory City is merely at the Mysterious Platform Realm. It appears that this person must be Lin Feng's competent aide.'

'...'

Jiang Chen examined Du Bailei's character panel, his thoughts swirling.

Just then, in that instant.
