Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts Chapter 656

Chapter 656: 656

The entire top floor of a grand and soaring building in the treasure tower region had been completely reserved by junior master Fang . No one else was permitted to enter .

“Brother Long, you’ve really opened my eyes today . Previously, I always thought that face-slaps were only for people weaker than you, but seeing you slap that elder, I realize the truth . Let me offer you a cup!” Junior master Fang actually stood up and toasted with Long Chen with both hands .

Everyone’s expressions changed slightly, and they all felt a trace of hostility toward Long Chen . Junior master Fang cared too much about Long Chen .

None of them had said a word to Long Chen the entire time . In their eyes, Long Chen was just a martial artist . He couldn’t be compared to grand alchemists .

They hadn’t openly displayed any contempt for him because they were giving face to junior master Fang . But now junior master Fang was so respectful to him, which displeased them .

Just by relying on some face-slapping art, he had managed to gain so much favor from junior master Fang . That luck was absolutely ridiculous .

“Brother Fang is too courteous . Cheers!” Long Chen laughed and touched his cup to junior master Fang’s .

The wine was excellent . It had actually been made out of over a hundred rare medicines, and was extremely beneficial to a person’s soul .

“Brother Long, let me introduce you . These people are all alchemists who came to partic.i.p.ate in the Pill Emperor Compet.i.tion . They are all elites in the alchemy world,” said junior master Fang .

These people had all been drawn into junior master Fang’s camp early so that they wouldn’t end up on the side of the other two families .

Although they were all part of the Pill Tower, the Huo family, Fang family, and Chai family all cared most about their people . That would determine how high their position would be in the future .

These people had been pulled in by junior master Fang in private . As for the registration test, he had directly let them skip it .

He had originally brought everyone out to go hunting and amuse themselves . But on the way, they had seen people from the Huo family . They had gone down to amuse themselves, but as a result, they had encountered Long Chen .

“No, no, I wouldn’t dare call myself an elite . Compared to brother Long’s beautiful face-slaps, alchemy is just a minor Dao,” laughed one of them .

Long Chen glanced at this person and shook his head inside . As expected, wherever there were people, there was compet.i.tion . These people had pointed their spears at him so quickly .

This person’s true meaning was extremely obvious: he was just good at slapping people in the face, while they were grand alchemists . The difference between them was like heaven and earth .

Junior master Fang’s high regard for Long Chen had brought on their displeasure, as he had never treated them so grandly before .

“When someone goes and practically pushes their face in front of you, it would be wrong for you to not slap them . That’s how I managed to train my art . If brother is interested, I can give you some private lessons . ” Long Chen smiled .

These words were a bit impolite . But if someone wanted him to slap them, he definitely wouldn’t hesitate .

He had clearly shown his att.i.tude now . For these people, you couldn’t give them face, or they would say and do even more irritating things .

“Haha, alright, let’s not fight . It was fate that brought us together . Let’s all toast to that!” Junior master Fang sensed the atmosphere was getting tense, and he hastily raised his cup with a laugh .

Everyone followed suit . They cared deeply about the Fang family’s strength . On the surface, the Pill Tower was one whole ent.i.ty, but it was actually controlled by the three families . Entering one of these three families was equivalent to having boundless resources and innumerable cultivation opportunities for them .

So they had to be extremely courteous to him . If they offended junior master Fang, their future prospects would be ruined .

Junior master Fang was extremely happy today . He had managed to entice several talented alchemists to his side, as well as encountered a master midway through a trip .

“I hear this is brother Long’s first time coming to Pill Yang Prefecture . This is a world for alchemists . What plans do you have in coming here?” asked one person .

This person’s off-hand question was extremely sharp and displeasing . Long Chen smiled and was about to reply when footsteps rang out from below .

Junior master Fang’s expression sank . He had already reserved this place . But someone still dared come up and disturb them .

“Junior master Chai?”

When he saw who had come up, junior master Fang leaped up and laughed .

The others didn’t feel right sitting when junior master Fang was standing, so they also stood . Long Chen looked at the newcomers . A total of ten people had come . The person at the front was a medium-sized, square-faced man with an imposing mannerism .

This person was the future heir of one of the Pill Tower’s three great families, the Chai family’s number one junior generation’s alchemy genius .

“Haha, junior master Fang, I heard you have reserved this place . Recently, I’ve been embarra.s.singly short of money . You wouldn’t mind if a cadged a meal of you, right?” laughed junior master Chai .

“Junior master Chai, you’re joking . Come, let me introduce you . These are my precious guests . ”

Obviously, these two had a very close relations.h.i.+p . They hastily asked the restaurant to bring up a larger table and more food .

“Junior master Fang, you really are fast . You actually have three more than me,” sighed junior master Chai .

“Hehe, it was luck,” said junior master Fang . But he was clearly pleased .

“Hmm? Wait, what?! You… you are Long San?!” Junior master Chai suddenly looked at Long Chen with shock .

“You know Long San?” asked junior master Fang, surprised .

“What the f.u.c.k?! You were way too fast! I only just received the news, but you already pulled him in,” said junior master Chai .

“What are you talking about? What news?”

“Tch, keep acting . Long San is the only one to be given a Genius rating in the compet.i.tion’s registration so far . At eighteen years old, his soul energy has reached the first tier Heaven cla.s.s . Don’t bother trying to tell me that you didn’t know and just randomly picked him up off the street . ”

Junior master Fang was stunned . Even the people beside him were stunned . This Long San had such an origin?

“Brother Long, you’re an alchemist?” asked junior master Fang .

“Yes . ”

“What the f.u.c.k?! Why didn’t you tell me sooner! Now I look like an idiot!” cursed junior master Fang .

“Well, the main thing is that you never asked . ” Long Chen shrugged .

Junior master Chai saw that it didn’t seem like they were acting . After asking a few questions, he turned speechless . “This dogs.h.i.+t luck of yours is way too strong! I really have to concede . I already sent people to go look for Long San, but you ended up randomly picking him up first . ”

According to the rules, the registrants that pa.s.sed would go through a meeting where some old alchemists would give them some tips . But that was useless to Long Chen .

He had his Pill G.o.d memories . Why would he need other people’s alchemy tips? So he had just directly left . It was only later that people realized he had disappeared .

So the three families had immediately started a search for Long San, wanting to pull him into their camp . Such a talented alchemist was too rare .

As a result, while they searched all over, junior master Fang had picked him up while thinking of going hunting . Furthermore, he hadn’t even known he was an alchemist .

“Junior master Fang, since you didn’t know he was an alchemist, it wouldn’t count as stealing…” Junior master Chai laughed mischievously .

“Don’t even try it . Long San is my brother . Don’t even think about taking my brother away . ”

Long Chen could see that although the two of them represented two different families, they were extremely close . They were even able to make such jokes .

“The food’s here . Let’s eat . ”

Junior master Fang waved his hand, and everyone sat down . Long Chen was sitting between the two junior masters . Everyone else’s gazes were filled with envy, but they were also helpless .

Their soul energy had only reached the seventh to ninth tier Earth cla.s.s; thus, they could only reach the Outstanding rank . There was no way for them to compare to Long Chen .

Those people that had been displeased with Long Chen were now even more irritated . Originally, they had thought Long Chen was just a martial artist who only relied on a face-slapping art to get close to junior master Fang .

They had never expected him to be a Genius rank alchemist . The people who had insulted him felt like they were sitting on pins . They also cursed inside . If he was such a strong alchemist, why hadn’t he said so earlier? Was it to make himself appear low-key? He had made complete fools out of them .

Junior master Fang hadn’t gone to the testing region, as there were naturally people from his family who had kept watch for him . But junior master Chai had kept a photographic jade recording of what had happened over there .

He had even shown the section regarding Long San to his family, which had greatly shaken them . They all felt he had to be drawn to their side .

“Long San, I have a little sister who is as beautiful as a heavenly fairy . She is outstanding…” said junior master Chai suddenly .

“Stop! Long San, don’t listen to him! His sister might be pretty, but she’s only eight! Don’t get duped,” said junior master Fang .

“So what if she’s only eight? You can cultivate the Pill Dao for countless years . Ten years can pa.s.s in the blink of an eye . She’ll quickly grow up,” quibbled junior master Chai .

Long Chen laughed . “Junior master Chai, I appreciate your kindness . But junior master Fang recognized my worth without even knowing I was an alchemist, accepting me as a brother . I, Long San, will never forget that kindness . ”

Toward the end, his voice was a bit low with emotion . Junior master Fang was incomparably moved, and he was also extremely proud of himself . This simple matter had locked a genius to his Fang family’s side .

“Alright, then I’ll give up . Well, our Chai and Fang families get along very well, so being over there is the same to me . Let’s toast as a celebration . ” Junior master Chai had truly given up now . Long Chen’s promise had already displayed his resolve .

In truth, this phrase of his had been extremely brilliant . He had directly erased junior master Fang’s misgivings while also causing him to feel emotional and proud .

Once most of the food was eaten, Long Chen asked the two of them for their real names . They were already so close, but he still didn’t know their names . That was a bit rude .

“I’m Fang Chang and he’s Chai Liehuo,” answered junior master Fang .

Hearing their names, Long Chen’s jaw suddenly dropped, and he seemed completely shocked .
