Gong Yongnian walked anxiously around his alchemy, murmuring constantly: "Why haven't you come yet? Why haven't you come yet?"
In his opinion, even if the three family heads accepted Chen Dong's benefits, they should be begging him like dogs now.
What benefit is more important than a super god-level alchemist?
Unfortunately, even after it got dark, the three family heads were nowhere to be seen.
"If you are capable, then you will never have anything to do with me!" Gong Yongnian gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to ask me to make medicine again in the future, there is no way!"
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and "Vice President" Shang Zhiming walked in.
Shang Zhiming is a god-level alchemist and a fifth-level sage master. He is Gong Yongnian's right-hand man and plays an important role in the alchemist union.
"President Gong, according to our spies' reports, the three family heads and Chen Dong entered Chen Musheng's mansion together and never came out again, and cheerful laughter could be heard from time to time... As for what they said, it's really
It can’t be detected." Shang Zhiming sighed and said, after all, the Alchemist Union is not a professional intelligence agency, and it is not easy to detect this step.
"These bastards..." Gong Yongnian clenched his fists and his fingers rattled, obviously angry to a certain extent.
Shang Zhiming saw this and said solemnly: "President Gong, it seems that the three family heads have no hope of killing Chen Dong. We must find another way..."
Gong Yongnian said: "How to find another way? We know a lot of friends, but how many of them dare to attack the 'Demon Slayer Marshal'? And this is still in Beijing, how many people are capable of using force and dare to use force?"
Shang Zhiming said solemnly: "Who says we have to rely on others? We can kill people ourselves..."
"It's not like I haven't thought about it, but that guy Chen Dong did not know what kind of ecstasy soup he poured into Chen Musheng and the three family heads. It would be too difficult to kill Chen Dong in front of them!"
"Who said force must be used to kill Chen Dong?"
Gong Yongnian looked at Shang Zhiming doubtfully: "What do you mean..."
"President Gong..." Shang Zhiming said quietly: "We are alchemists, we can kill people invisibly..."
"You mean...use poison?!"
"Yes, use poison!"
A person who uses poison may not be a good alchemist.
But an alchemist must be a good poison user - it's just that they usually don't bother to do so.
…
Go to Beijing and go to the presidential palace with soldiers and horses.
Chen Musheng was extremely happy to learn that Chen Dong was his descendant. He kept asking Chen Dong questions. The three family heads also chatted non-stop, trying to find out as much as possible about things on earth.
Chen Dong only picked nice words and described the earth as a mysterious, powerful and harmonious family.
Before I knew it, it was already dark.
Chen Dong remembered that he had to report to Yanzu, and Chen Musheng said: "I have only been to the Holy Palace during the day. The Holy Emperor is quite busy today. You can go find him tomorrow."
Chen Dong knew that Chen Musheng wanted to stay with him for a while, and was afraid that he would leave when he saw Yanzu, so he came down and said, "Okay."
Chen Musheng was very happy and immediately ordered a dinner.
Chen Musheng has already introduced Chen Dong to his family. The earth is a secret in this world. Even if he tells it, no one will believe it. It is only spread in a small area.
Chen Musheng asked Chen Dong to call him Commander Chen when he was outside. After all, "Grandpa Zu" was quite strange and difficult to explain.
Chen Dong readily agreed.
The dishes were quickly served. Chen Musheng's family, as well as several family heads of the Shangsan clan, and the young master were sitting at the same table, eating the dinner happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
At this moment, someone suddenly reported: "Commander Chen, Shang Zhiming, the vice president of the Alchemist Union, is here."
Although Shang Zhiming's status in Beijing is not as good as that of Gong Yongnian, he is still a heavyweight who stamps his feet and shakes his hands. He can even represent Gong Yongnian many times.
Why is he here?
Everyone knew that Chen Dong had a feud with the Alchemist Guild, so Shang Zhiming definitely had no good intentions when he suddenly came to visit.
Several people looked at each other.
But Chen Musheng said boldly: "President Shang came to the door on his own initiative. There is no reason not to welcome him. Please invite him in quickly!"
"Yes!" The men turned around and walked out.
Chen Musheng whispered: "Look at what he wants to do... I don't believe it. What kind of trouble does he dare to make in my house?"
After a while, there was the sound of footsteps, and a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the alchemist union walked in with an immortal spirit and five gold leaves embroidered on his chest, which was the symbol of a "god-level alchemist".
It is Shang Zhiming, the vice president of the Alchemist Union!
"Haha, President Shang, what brought you here!" Chen Musheng took the initiative to stand up and greet him, with a smile on his face.
"Commander Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time. I came here specially to visit you..." Shang Zhiming also smiled and greeted him respectfully.
At the same time, Shang Zhiming looked at the three heads of the upper three clans and the young master, and greeted them one by one, and everyone responded politely.
Finally, Shang Zhiming's eyes fell on Chen Dong.
"Hello, Marshal Chen!" Shang Zhiming said seriously.
Chen Dong was a little surprised that Shang Zhiming took the initiative to greet him, but he stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling person, so he nodded and said, "Hello!"
At this time, Chen Musheng asked: "I wonder why President Shang came to visit?"
Shang Zhiming smiled and said, "Why don't you come over if you have nothing to do? I just want to come and have a meal, and I don't know if Commander Chen will welcome me or not."
Chen Musheng burst out laughing: "Welcome, of course you are welcome! Come, add an extra chair!"
The importance of an alchemist goes without saying, let alone a god-level alchemist.
Unless absolutely necessary, no one would take the initiative to offend the alchemist.
Soon someone added a chair, and Shang Zhiming sat down and ate with everyone.
Everyone was talking about the earth, but suddenly there was an outsider, so they consciously stopped the topic and talked about other things in Beijing.
"Have you heard that the eldest prince wanted to take Ye Yingxue from Baihualou as his concubine, but the emperor refuted it?"
"How come you haven't heard of it? I don't know what the eldest prince thinks. Ye Yingxue is... well, she has a pair of jade arms that can be used by thousands of people, and a bit of red lips that can be tasted by thousands of people. Why do you have to take her as your concubine?"
"This shows that Ye Yingxue's methods are very clever, otherwise he can defeat the eldest prince?"
"Thanks to the wisdom of the Holy One, if we really agreed to this matter, the royal family would become a laughing stock from now on!"
…
While everyone was talking about these romantic affairs, Chen Dong suddenly said quietly: "President Shang, why are you always staring at me?"
Everyone immediately fell silent, and then all looked at Shang Zhiming.
Sure enough, Shang Zhiming was staring at Chen Dong.
Shang Zhiming coughed lightly and did not pay attention to Chen Dong. Instead, he looked at the others: "Commander Chen, the three family heads, I have something to ask on behalf of our president. Please forgive me if there is any offense in my words."
"President Shang, it doesn't matter." In fact, the status of these two people is equal, but this is Chen Musheng's home court, so of course Chen Musheng will answer the question.
Shang Zhiming said: "Our president has known each other for hundreds of years, so we can call it 'unrequited friendship'. Everyone knows that Chen Dong and our Alchemist Guild are not going to deal with it, so why are you still in and out?"
Protecting him out of town? Our president really couldn’t figure it out, so he asked me to come over and ask.”
Chen Musheng had already guessed that Shang Zhiming would ask this question, so he said loudly: "Chen Dong is the demon-killing commander appointed by the Holy Emperor. He shoulders the heavy responsibility of demon-killing and is closely related to the peace of the entire Yanxia Continent. I feel that no matter what personal grudges he has, this
It’s time to put things aside and unite as one to deal with the outside world. Does President Shang think this is the truth?”
Even if Chen Musheng and Chen Dong were not related by blood, Chen Musheng would still say and do this.
Ever since Chen Dong became the demon slayer, protecting Chen Dong is what he has been doing.
Seeing that Shang Zhiming did not answer, Chen Musheng continued: "President Shang, it is precisely because of our irreconcilable friendship with President Gong that I have never told Yan Zu about his affairs. I hope you will also persuade him after you return to stop doing this."
It hurts those who are close to you, but it is easy for those who hate you. At present, the demon clan should put the overall situation first."
Chen Musheng's words were so upright and impassioned that even the three family heads couldn't help but nod their heads frequently.
Shang Zhiming let out a long sigh and said: "Actually, our president has also thought of this. He doesn't want to have internal strife when the demons are in power, but he really can't swallow this breath..."
Having said this, Shang Zhiming turned to look at Chen Dong again: "Marshuai Chen, President Gong specially asked me to tell you that he will not deal with you again before you set off. But when you come back from the south, he
We need to settle old and new grudges together so that you can be prepared when the time comes."
Hearing this, Chen Dong laughed instead: "Okay!"
If Gong Yongnian is really so upright, Chen Dong would be very willing to accept this agreement.
A true man should be clear about his grudges and grudges, as he should be!
Chen Musheng and the three family heads also nodded and approved Shang Zhiming's proposal. This was considered a gentleman's agreement.
However, Chen Musheng also quietly said to Chen Dong: "It's okay. When the time comes for him to deal with you, I will continue to help you."
Chen Dong smiled and said: "When I come back, if he wants to deal with me again, I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Shang Zhiming exhaled, then took out a basket of peaches from the storage ring.
I saw that the peaches in the basket were all red and translucent, making me salivate.
"This is..." Everyone's eyes widened.
"Extension of longevity peach." Shang Zhiming said, "General Chen and several family heads know about it."
Chen Musheng and several family heads nodded one after another. They knew that this kind of peach had the effect of prolonging life. It was a variety developed by the Alchemist Guild with all its efforts. Unfortunately, the output was too low and the cost was high. It had always been only for royal consumption.
Even though it’s expensive for them, I haven’t eaten there many times!
"To express our apology, our president specially offers longevity peaches to everyone. I hope everyone will accept them." Shang Zhiming placed the basket on the table.
