The Zhong siblings both stood in a daze, not knowing how to handle the situation as they looked at Fang Lin.

With a smile on his face, Fang Lin said to Master Qi: “It seems that you are not satisfied with your two disciples and are considering taking these siblings as your new disciples?”

Master Qi gave Fang Lin a cold glance and said disdainfully: “Who I choose to take on as disciples is not something you, as a junior, have any say in. These two have already caught my eye and will leave with me soon.”

Upon hearing this, the Zhong siblings became anxious. What was happening? They had just settled into Qian Country and had no intention of leaving with Master Qi.

In the eyes of the Zhong siblings, Master Qi did not seem like a good person. If they followed him, they might end up being sold without even realizing it.

Fang Lin continued to smile, “Even if Master Qi is interested in them, their own opinions should be taken into consideration. I’m sure someone of Master Qi’s stature wouldn’t resort to forcibly abducting people.”

Master Qi snickered. In his eyes, the siblings were na?ve. He believed a few trivial promises from him would easily sway them. There wasn’t a need to put in much effort after all.

Master Qi was interested in the Zhong siblings because their techniques during the third Alchemy Technique assessment seemed very similar to those in an ancient book he had read. His greedy heart wanted to learn this Alchemy Technique from them.

His claim of being interested in their talent was all nonsense. All he wanted was the Alchemy Technique that was a family legacy of the Zhong Family.

“Do you know who I am?” asked Master Qi, taking up a high and mighty attitude towards the Zhong siblings. frёeωebɳovel.com

The Zhong siblings shook their heads, they had no idea who he was.

Master Qi managed a smirk and said, “I am Qi Sanxuan, an elder of the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country. If you follow me to Xuan Country, I can recommend you to become stewards within the Pill Alliance. In the future, you will have the opportunity to study in the Upper Three Countries’ Pill Alliance. That will be much better than staying in the small Qian Country.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin’s eyes stirred a bit. So Master Qi was from the Pill Alliance in Xuan Country, the Dugu Family was also based there.

The Zhong siblings glanced at each other, their faces showed no reaction.

Fang Lin heart chuckled. Master Qi’s sweet talk would sway someone of lesser life experience perhaps, but the Zhong siblings, after being through the incident with the Shen Family, are cautious. Master Qi’s temptations only made them more suspicious of him.

Qi Sanxuan was surprised at the siblings’ cautious reaction and felt so frustrated he wished he could just grab them and go.

Fang Lin laughed teasingly, “It seems that Master Qi’s charm is not enough.”

With a grunt, Qi Sanxuan spoke again, “I can take you two as my disciples, provide you with the best pills to enhance your strength, and offer you unlimited prospects. It would be a thousand, no, a million times better than what you have here in Qian Country. Here, you will always be the most low-ranking Pill Refiners, with little resources available.”

Unfortunately, the Zhong siblings shook their heads and rejected the offer. No matter what Master Qi said, they wouldn’t believe him. They had already decided to stay in Qian Country. Going to an unfamiliar country would mean they were at the mercy of others. At least in Qian Country, they could rely on Fang Lin should something happen. In a new country, they would be on their own.

For the Zhong siblings now, far-reaching prospects just seemed unrealistic. They had to establish themselves first before considering the future.

Qi Sanxuan was astounded. Are these two siblings out of their minds? They were abandoning a great future just to stay in this small country?

At this time, Elder Su also leisurely walked over, his jovial face asking, “What is Master Qi doing here? Why the long face?”

Qi Sanxuan grunted and pointed at the Zhong siblings, “I want to take them to Xuan Country. You surely won’t refuse, right?”

Elder Su looked surprised, turning his gaze to the Zhong siblings.

Elder Su had some impression of them, among the eleven who passed the assessment, they had performed reasonably well.

However, even though they were not so exceptional that they stood out amongst the candidates, it was surprising that Qi Sanxuan wanted to take them to Xuan Country.

“Heh, it’s not up to me to decide. If they are willing, I won’t object,” said Elder Su.

Qi Sanxuan’s mouth twitched. If these siblings were willing, would he have needed to waste his breath?

“Fine, if you don’t want to go, I won’t force you. But I must say, staying here is simply wasting your talents.” Qi Sanxuan turned and walked away after saying this.

Zhong Haoran spoke with some concern, “It’s okay for us to have refused him, right?”

Fang Lin replied with a smile, “Don’t worry. With Elder Su here, there’s nothing to fear.”

Elder Su glared at Fang Lin, his voice was filled with exasperation, “All of this is your fault.”

Fang Lin feigned innocence, “Now, Elder Su, you can’t blame me entirely. You saw earlier how Master Qi’s two disciples behaved. If it happened to you, would you have been able to tolerate it?”

Elder Su was speechless, but he had to admit that Fang Lin had a point. If he were in the same situation, he probably wouldn’t have been able to bear Master Qi’s disciples’ behavior either.

“Elder Su, I’m entrusting the siblings to you. Please take care of them,” Fang Lin said with a sly smile.

Elder Su nodded and patted Zhong Haoran’s shoulder saying, “These two youngsters are pretty good.”

Zhong Haoran and Zhong Xiaorou felt grateful. Fang Lin was recommending them to Elder Su, allowing them to find a reliable patron. If they had the backing of Elder Su, the person in charge of the Qian Country’s Pill Alliance division, they would be untouchable in Qian Country.

“Brother Fang, thank you,” the Zhong siblings expressed their gratitude to Fang Lin. From now on, they would regard Fang Lin as their benefactor.

“Fang Lin, come here for a moment,” suddenly said Elder Su.

Fang Lin accompanied Elder Su to a place where they could speak privately, “Are you going to participate in the tournament between the three countries?”

Fang Lin nodded. Elder Su was an influential figure in Qian Capital and would understandably be aware of it.

“I’m just a substitute, I probably won’t have to do much,” Fang Lin replied.

Elder Su nodded, then said, “Did you know that in two months, our Qian Country, along with Meng Kingdom, and Xuan Country, will be hosting a Pill Refiner Convention?”

At this, Fang Lin was taken aback and shook his head. He was completely unaware of this Pill Refiners Convention.

Elder Su spoke solemnly, “The reason I’m telling you this is because we hope you can participate. Qian Country’s Pill Alliance might need to rely on you to save face.”
