Chen Tianwen is humiliated by his fiancée, dragged a thousand miles behind a carriage, mocked by the entire city, and the Chen family loses all face.
While serving as a slave at the Divine Sw...
"Mr. Chen is far too modest. Everyone knows that he refined a top-grade fifth-rank immortal pill in just a few hours."
Seeing Chen Tianwen's humility, Xuan Cang immediately spoke up as well.
Ming Qing, naturally not to be outdone, also spoke up:
"Mr. Chen's alchemy skills are probably unmatched in the entire Xuanxian Realm. I have come here today to invite you to come out of seclusion and help my clan leader refine immortal pills. Rest assured, my clan has prepared all kinds of rare and precious materials to present to you."
Xuan Cang, not to be outdone, also spoke up to Chen Tianwen:
"I observe that Mr. Chen also cultivates the Law of Earth. Mr. Chen must also know that my Xuan Turtle Clan has pondered the Law of Earth quite deeply. If Mr. Chen could visit my Xuan Turtle Clan, then our clan would not only have all kinds of rare and precious materials to offer you, but also many immortal techniques of the Law of Earth for you to consult at any time!"
Upon hearing their conversation, Chen Tianwen also began to hesitate.
He thought only the Xuan Turtle Clan would come looking for him, but now he didn't expect that even the Nether Serpent Clan would come.
Chen Tianwen was somewhat hesitant about the demands of both companies.
Regardless of which clan you go to, on the surface you will offend the other clan.
However, Chen Tianwen also knew that the two clans were likely just putting on a show, and it wasn't really important for him to go to that clan.
At this moment, what Chen Tianwen needs to do is find a way to cooperate with both clans to put on a good show!
Chen Tianwen smiled but didn't speak. Instead, he asked:
"Since the two immortal lords think so highly of me, I naturally cannot hide my abilities. However, I can certainly prepare the medicine according to the prescription. As for whether I can cure the noble clan chief, to be honest, I have no confidence."
"Moreover, both of them extended such a warm invitation, and it would be inappropriate for me to refuse either of them, which puts me in a very difficult position!"
Chen Tianwen threw the question back at the other party. If the other party was putting on an act, they would definitely have a solution prepared in advance. If the other party couldn't come up with a solution, Chen Tianwen would definitely choose to go to the Xuan Turtle Clan.
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Tianwen finished speaking, both Xuan Cang and Ming Qing showed a barely perceptible smile.
Xuan Cang spoke first, addressing Chen Tianwen:
"As long as Mr. Chen is willing to help, our clan leader will surely be saved. As for what you said, we two are here sincerely seeking medicine. Although our two clans have some grudges, we will not cause you any trouble!"
Ming Qing nodded and said:
“That’s right. Our grudges with the Xuan Turtle Clan will naturally not involve you, sir. Everything is up to you to decide.”
Chen Tianwen could tell that although the two were polite on the surface, their words actually contained a hidden threat.
First, the grudges between the two families were explained, and then Chen Tian was asked to make his own choice.
If Chen Tianwen makes a choice, it will definitely be a sign of taking sides!
What both families actually meant was that they wanted Chen Tianwen to back down and preferably not go to either of them.
This makes it easier for both companies to explain to the outside world.
It's not that we don't want to ask Emperor Dan to treat our patriarch, it's just that we can't persuade him!
Chen Tianwen naturally saw through the other party's little scheme, but he was also somewhat troubled.
If we make a hasty decision at this point, it could very well provoke resentment from both factions, which would be a loss rather than a gain.
At this moment, Xu Tian, who hadn't spoken until now, saw Chen Tianwen's troubled expression and assumed that Chen Tianwen didn't want to refuse either of the two families, so he spoke up to smooth things over:
"My two immortal lords, I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should."
Xuan Cang and Ming Qing quickly said:
"Lord Xu, please feel free to speak your mind."
All three were at the Immortal Lord level, and they were currently on Xu Tian's territory, so Xuan Cang and Ming Qing still showed the proper respect.
Moreover, the two of them had already planned to spread the news about what happened today through Xu Tian's mouth, so why would they offend Xu Tian at this time?
Chen Tianwen was also curious about what good idea Xu Tian would come up with at this time, so he listened attentively.
After a moment of contemplation, Xu Tian spoke:
"My two immortal lords, you both wish to ask Mr. Chen for help. Indeed, a healer's heart is like a parent's, and Mr. Chen is kind and benevolent; naturally, both families want to assist. Why must you insist on arguing about who should go first? What I'm trying to say is that if Mr. Chen is willing, he can certainly help both families with the treatment. As for the grudges between your two clans, you can resolve those yourselves. Mr. Chen is merely helping with the alchemy!"
Xu Tian's words had a hint of trying to smooth things over, but Chen Tianwen couldn't help but feel a surge of joy upon hearing them.
These words, spoken by Xu Tian, would naturally have a better effect than those spoken by Chen Tianwen.
If Chen Tianwen were to say it, it would make him seem greedy, wanting to benefit from both sides.
What Xu Tian said turned into the two families asking Chen Tianwen to do this!
The problem was once again presented to Xuan Cang and Ming Qing.
The two of them frowned, but they couldn't refute Xu Tian's words.
Do the two clans still dare to openly threaten Chen Tianwen?
Chen Tianwen quickly spoke up as well:
"Healing the sick and saving lives is the very foundation of my medical practice. I am naturally willing to treat both tribal chiefs! As for the order of treatment, let's go to whichever tribe is closest to us first, shall we?"
Chen Tianwen's words undoubtedly made the final decision on this matter, and Xuan Cang and Ming Qing had no way to refute it, so they could only nod in agreement.
To Chen Tianwen's surprise, the Nether Serpent Clan was actually the closest to Danwang City, so Chen Tianwen chose to go to the Nether Serpent Clan first.
However, Chen Tianwen also gave Xuan Cang a jade slip, saying that Xuan Cang should personally deliver it to the Great Elder of the Xuan Turtle Clan. Inside was an essential item for healing and saving lives!
Xuan Cang dared not be careless. After thanking him, he returned to his clan alone.
Chen Tianwen politely declined Xu Tian's offer to accompany him and went to the Nether Serpent Clan alone with Ming Qing!
Along the way, Chen Tianwen couldn't help but find it amusing. The two clans were worlds apart from Danwang City, yet they chose to appear before him together.
It was nothing more than creating the illusion of an argument and threatening Chen Tianwen not to help.
What's the difference between this behavior and trying to cover up something obvious?
However, Chen Tianwen did not expose him and chatted with Ming Qing in a casual manner along the way.
Ming Qing didn't even mention the injury of his clan leader, which made Chen Tianwen find it even more amusing.
Even if these two races' acting skills can fool people, it's only temporary!
The Nether Serpent Clan does not reside in the city, but rather has established their territory within the River Styx in the Flowing Wind Domain.
Looking at the boundless River Styx, Chen Tianwen couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature, that such a magnificent sight could exist.
Subsequently, Chen Tianwen, led by Ming Qing, entered the River Styx!
