Chapter 327: Leaving in Anger

This figure was none other than Su Jingzhen, the one everyone had been eagerly awaiting.He had just emerged from the strange land within the canyon when he received several messages from swift demon insects.

All of them were from Luo Yuebai.

This surprised him quite a bit.

Just as he returned to his courtyard, four or five more swift demon insects flew towards him.

That’s when he headed towards Xuening’s courtyard.

But he never expected to see such a lively scene here.

There was no need for Luo Yuebai to say anything more in the message. When he saw the figures of Vice President Ouyang and others, he had already guessed what had happened.

Everyone present was visibly surprised to see Su Jingzhen’s arrival.

Especially the group from the Alchemist Association, who seemed to have found a savior.

Just as Su Jingzhen approached Xuening and Luo Yuebai, small golden characters appeared before him.

Xuening’s face was filled with undisguised joy when she saw Su Jingzhen.

The points gained earlier were clearly from Xuening.

In public, Su Jingzhen didn’t reach out to mess up Xuening’s hair.

Instead, he smiled and said, “Xuening, congratulations.

I presume you have broken through to the rank of a four-star alchemist this time?”

“Thank you, Brother Su.”

At this moment, the Alchemist Association members didn’t give Xuening and Su Jingzhen much time to chat.

Ye Zhiqiu walked straight up to Su Jingzhen: “Friend Su, long time no see.”

Su Jingzhen nodded at her.

After a brief greeting, Ye Zhiqiu didn’t hesitate and continued, “I believe we, the Alchemist Association, have made our intentions clear to Friend Su.

Compared to the Evil Moon Sect, the Alchemist Association is indeed a more suitable environment for Xuening’s development.

Therefore, Zhiqiu wants to ask Friend Su to persuade Xuening.”

Ye Zhiqiu was direct with Su Jingzhen.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Su Jingzhen’s lips.

He could naturally guess Xuening’s choice.

But yesterday, their Evil Moon Sect had established a Dan Hall, making Xuening even more special to him.

He had already planned Xuening’s position within the Evil Moon Sect.

How could he easily let the Alchemist Association take her away?

But at this moment, Su Jingzhen remained composed, even with a hint of seriousness.

He deliberately asked, “Xuening, what is your choice?

In the Qingzhou region, if we talk about alchemists, no one’s foundation can compare to the Alchemist Association.”

Hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, the Alchemist Association members showed a hint of joy.

Xuening had already expressed her stance in front of them earlier.

So Su Jingzhen’s persuasion might have a significant effect.

However, before Xuening could respond, Su Jingzhen spoke again, “Of course, if you’d rather stay in Linjiang City, then the Evil Moon Sect might soon have its own group of alchemists.

At that time, you, Xuening, could become one of the founders of the Evil Moon Sect’s alchemist group!

That might be more fulfilling.”

Su Jingzhen’s words shocked everyone present.

What the hell, what was this?

This wasn’t persuasion at all!

He was clearly not willing to let Xuening join the Alchemist Association. Seaʀᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Young Friend Su, what do you mean by that!”

Vice President Ouyang had initially been full of hope for Su Jingzhen, but he never expected Su Jingzhen to pull this stunt.

He couldn’t help but ask directly.

He considered himself to have been kind to both Xuening and Su Jingzhen during the Alchemist Competition.

And because of Yao Changsheng’s relationship, he had always been on the Feng family’s side.

In a way, the Alchemist Competition and the Feng family’s downfall were their shared experience.

So this situation was completely beyond Vice President Ouyang’s expectations.

He found it hard to accept.

Hearing his question, Su Jingzhen smiled and said, “Vice President, there’s no need to get excited.

Our Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch just established a Dan Hall yesterday, and we are in dire need of talent.

We truly can’t let Xuening return to the Alchemist Association with you.

Of course, if Xuening herself wishes to return, then I will naturally offer my blessings.”

He passed the buck back to Xuening.

In Su Jingzhen’s view, joining the Alchemist Association would be beneficial for Xuening in the short term.

But he also had unwavering confidence in the Evil Moon Sect’s alchemist group.

Since he had decided to build the Linjiang branch into something surpassing the main sect, the alchemist group here should naturally be the best in Qingzhou.

This was Su Jingzhen’s confidence, and the confidence that came with his golden finger.

As soon as Su Jingzhen finished speaking, before Vice President Ouyang and the others could say anything, Xuening took two steps forward and bowed deeply to Vice President Ouyang and the others.

“Thank you, seniors, for your kindness. Since Brother Su needs me, Xuening has decided to stay in the Evil Moon Sect.”

The moment Xuening said this, the matter was settled.

Unless there was a violent conflict, the Alchemist Association couldn’t take Xuening away.

However, at this moment, Shen Yifeng stepped forward and stood in front of Xuening and Su Jingzhen.

He still had to be cautious.

At this time, besides Vice President Ouyang, the expressions of the other Alchemist Association cultivators also became serious.

The spiritual energy within each of them quietly circulated.

They felt that, given Vice President Ouyang’s temperament, the final outcome might not be as they wished today, but a fight might be inevitable.

The entrance of Xuening’s courtyard fell into a strange silence.

The atmosphere was a bit oppressive.

“Let’s go!”

However, to everyone’s surprise, after a long silence, Vice President Ouyang turned around and said this to Ye Zhiqiu and the others.

Without waiting for anyone to respond, he took the lead and walked away from the Evil Moon Sect.

Seeing this scene, the other Alchemist Association cultivators were stunned for a moment.

But they breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they still didn’t quite understand why Su Jingzhen made this choice, they didn’t ask any further questions.

Things had come to this, and the reason didn’t matter anymore.

Bai Xiu and Ye Zhiqiu still nodded to Su Jingzhen and the others before following Vice President Ouyang away.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen’s gaze fell on Luo Yuebai: “Is this the trouble you told me about?

It doesn’t seem like much.”

Luo Yuebai didn’t respond to his words.

Shen Yifeng, standing beside her, smiled and said, “Although Ouyang Mingyue isn’t a cunning person, nor is he petty, he has an extremely strong competitive spirit.

This matter won’t end so easily.

We can only say that our Linjiang branch has gained another opponent from now on.

Although it’s not a life-or-death feud, the Alchemist Association still has immense power.

It will bring us, no, it will bring you, a lot of trouble.

Just wait and see.

Ouyang Mingyue left in anger this time, and he returned with nothing. From what I know about him, it is impossible for him to have no backup plan.”

After a pause, Shen Yifeng seemed to have thought of something.

His gaze shifted to Luo Yuebai: “This can be considered as a benefit for Zou Zeyu…”
