It's late at night and there are only a few pedestrians on the streets of Chaodu.
The merchant pavilion, which was bustling with traffic during the day, has long been closed.
In the study room of Shangge, the master of Shangge has finished approving some documents and is preparing to go back to his room to rest.
"Report to the Pavilion Master, Dan Pavilion Pavilion Master Bai Ningshuang asks for an audience."
Someone outside the door said.
"It's her again?"
The master of the Shang Pavilion frowned and said, "What is she doing here so late at night? Tell her that the master of the pavilion has already gone to bed. If you have anything to do, come back tomorrow."
After thinking about it, the master of the Shang Pavilion said again, "Forget it, I won't ask her to come tomorrow. The master of the pavilion has been very busy recently and has no time to see her."
"My subordinates have already said that the Pavilion Master is taking a rest, but Bai Ningshuang said that he has urgent matters and wants to see the Pavilion Master in person."
The man outside the door said.
"Urgent? It's not because of the fourth prince Minghao that this pavilion master doesn't bother to pay attention to her."
The master of Shang Pavilion said coldly, "Take a few guards out and send her away."
"But, but Bai Ningshuang brought a young man, saying he was the man of Hall Master Duan Xin..."
The man outside the door said tremblingly.
"The person who wrote the letter?"
The master of Shang Pavilion opened his eyes. Duan Xin had a little reputation in Shang Zong, had a high status in the mall, and was his boss's boss. Duan Xin's people really couldn't neglect him, and he quickly said, "Quick, invite them to me."
Come here."
Not long after, Bai Ningshuang arrived, accompanied by a young man wearing a cloak.
"Pavilion Master Bai, good evening!"
The master of Shang Pavilion bowed his hands politely, then looked at the young man and asked, "This is..."
"He is Lu Chen!"
Bai Ningshuang said.
"Oh, it turns out to be King Lu Dan mentioned in Hall Master Duan's letter."
The master of Shang Pavilion suddenly realized, looked at Lu Shen for a while, and said doubtfully, "King Lu Dan, why don't you wear the robe of King Dan?"
"Who stipulates that Alchemy King must wear Alchemy King robe?"
Lu Chen said calmly.
"If you don't wear King Dan's robe, I can't identify you."
The master of the Shang Pavilion said.
"Do you have to confirm my identity before executing Duan Xin's order?"
Lu Chen continued to speak calmly.
"this……"
The master of Shang Pavilion was speechless.
In fact, when Bai Ningshuang brought the person here, he was basically sure that the person coming was Lu Chen.
Otherwise, why would Bai Ningshuang bring people here in the middle of the night?
However, he had already taken advantage of the eldest prince and already supported the eldest prince. It was difficult for him to turn around and support the fourth prince.
If Duan Xin comes in person, then he has nothing to say but can only change his stance.
But Duan Xin only received a letter asking him to follow Lu Chen's arrangements and support the fourth prince in this matter, so he was unwilling to give up.
Lu Chen is young and has no hair at all. Why should he listen to this yellow-haired boy?
"How about I send someone to Dan City to inform Duan Xin and ask him to come here?"
Lu Chen saw that the master of Shangge was hesitating and had no sincerity, and there was no need to be polite to the master of Shangge. He directly took Duan Xin out and suppressed the old fox.
"That's not necessary. There's nothing going on here. There's no need to trouble Hall Master Duan to come over in person."
The master of the Shangge Pavilion said quickly, and then explained, "I am a businessman and I am cautious in doing things. I must see things with my own eyes before I can believe them."
The implication is that we still have to see Lu Chen put on the Alchemy King robe before we can make a conclusion.
"You mean, you want to know what level of Alchemy King I am?"
Lu Chen asked calmly.
"Hall Master Duan's letter said that he wants me to obey the instructions of an Alchemy King named Lu Chen, and this Alchemy King may be at the fifth level."
The master of Shang Pavilion smiled again and explained, but he didn't agree in his heart. Duan Xin only said that Lu Chen might be the fifth-level Alchemy King, which meant that Duan Xin didn't know what level Lu Chen was. This might be Duan Xin's guess.
In his opinion, Lu Chen was too young. Even if he was the Alchemy King, he would only be at the first or second level.
There are so many first- and second-level Alchemy Kings in the Shang Sect. If Lu Chen only has this power, he will not be able to suppress him.
Duan Xin is not here anyway, so what if he disobeys?
In the future, even if Duan Xin finds out, it is unlikely that he will hold a low-level Dan King accountable to a Shang Pavilion Master.
"Well, Duan Xin has never seen me wearing the Alchemy King robe. He really doesn't know what level I am."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "But didn't he say that I might be at the fifth level? Do you still have any doubts?"
"I'm sorry. I have a principle in doing things. I only believe in my own eyes."
The attitude of the master of the Shang Pavilion also became colder, and there was not only suspicion but also disdain in his eyes.
Damn it, I asked your kid to wear the Alchemy King robe to prove his identity, but you pushed back and forth. Could it be that he is not even the Alchemy King, and he doesn’t even have the Alchemy King robe?
If so, it would be easier to do it. He would directly disobey Duan Xin's order and there would be nothing to worry about.
"Then keep your eyes open and watch carefully!"
Lu Chen pulled off his cloak, and underneath he was wearing a red Alchemy King robe with nine golden Alchemy King patterns, and the golden light shone brightly throughout the study.
The owner of the Shang Pavilion was blinded on the spot.
"I've seen the ninth-level Great Alchemy King."
The master of the Shang Pavilion hurriedly bowed and saluted, feeling regretful for his attitude just now.
There seem to be only a few ninth-level Great Alchemy King in the entire Shang Sect, so it’s not like he can offend him.
This can explain why Duan Xin wrote a letter and ordered the Shangge to support the fourth prince.
The face of a young ninth-level Great Alchemy King is worthy of Duan Xin.
If he dares to disobey Duan Xin's order, if Duan Xin finds out, he will definitely not be able to survive, and his head will most likely fall to the ground.
"Can you carry out Duan Xin's order?"
Lu Chen asked.
"Yes, of course."
The master of Shangge Pavilion said repeatedly, then thought about it and asked tentatively, "A few months ago, there was a ninth-level Great Alchemy King who was chasing rebellious people all over the city. I don't know..."
"It's King Bendan!"
Lu Chen nodded and admitted.
"It is indeed a person."
The master of the Shang Pavilion suddenly realized it, and then invited Lu Chen to take a seat, personally made tea and served the guests, and obeyed Lu Chen's instructions in everything.
There is no way, his alchemy status is too high, and he must have close contact with Duan Xin. If he doesn't want to die, it is best to take it easy.
The next day, Shangge suddenly announced that the fourth prince Minghao had taken good care of Shangge, and everyone in Shangge was deeply grateful for his kindness.
The implication is to support the fourth prince!
This explosive news immediately spread throughout the capital and shocked the entire royal family.
The Grand Prince's Palace.
study.
The eldest prince was so angry that he threw plates and bowls, and many antiques suffered damage on the spot.
Master Zhou was sitting on a chair, silent and deep in thought.
"The master of Shang Pavilion is really unreasonable. He went back on his word and returned the gift I gave him intact. It's really abominable!"
The eldest prince was very irritable, and even spoke with a roar. The real energy in his body stirred up and spread to the surrounding areas, making the entire study tremble.
"In the past few months, there have been a lot of abnormalities here. First, there was an incident in Dan Pavilion, and now there is a betrayal in Shang Pavilion. There are also a group of experts who have disappeared inexplicably. There must be experts behind this."
Master Zhou suddenly said.
"That bitch dares to get involved in the fight for the throne when he's so full?"
The eldest prince said angrily, "Is it that old immortal Zhu Feichen?"
"Zhu Feichen is not qualified enough. He is not an expert. He does not have the ability to win over Dange and Shangge."
Master Zhou sneered.
"Who is that?"
"I suspect that it is the ninth-level Great Alchemy King who appeared a few months ago."
