"Oh? Someone else?"
Xiang Caiye was not surprised and easily guessed who it was:
"Lu Lan is very good at refining medicine?"
"Didn't that guy Jiang Tianhui tell you?"
Zhan Xuanyuan said, "He competed with the fourth-level alchemist from the Yaoyuan Chamber of Commerce in refining medicine and won."
"Haha, you were once the most powerful alchemy genius in the Medicine God Sect. Why are you bragging about your victory over a fourth-level alchemist?"
Xiang Caiye smiled faintly and said, "And I've actually heard about this matter you mentioned from Jiang Tianhui, but I didn't take it too seriously."
"You know that among the disciples of our Medicine God Sect, fourth-level alchemists already account for more than half."
"Though fifth-level alchemists are rare, they can't be described as 'rare' either."
"Do you think I'll take that competition seriously?"
"But you forget his age."
Zhan Xuanyuan said lightly:
"He's only seventeen years old, but he's already a fourth-level alchemist."
"If I remember correctly, Xia Ningmo only became a fourth-rank alchemist when she was nineteen, right?"
Xiang Caiye was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.
Indeed, professions like alchemists, doctors, and swordsmiths all require them to accumulate a lot of experience.
Generally speaking, the average age of a fourth-level alchemist is around thirty years old.
The average age of the fourth-level alchemists in their Yaoshen Sect is around 25 years old.
Before Xia Ningmo, the youngest fourth-level alchemist in the Medicine God Sect was Zhan Xuanyuan.
He became a fourth-rank alchemist at the age of twenty, which was enough to shock the entire Medicine God Sect.
Xia Ningmo was one year younger, which meant that all the attention and treatment from the Medicine God Sect was focused on her.
And Lu Lan... was only seventeen years old, but he defeated that fourth-level alchemist!
He even heard Jiang Tianhui say that with Lu Lan's extremely relaxed performance, he might be able to reach the level of a fifth-level alchemist!
A seventeen-year-old fifth-level alchemist!
What's that concept?!
There has never been such a genius in the entire Yaoshen Sect, or even in the entire Cang Shen Kingdom!
When he thought of this, Xiang Caiye became unusually excited.
"Are you serious? He will really attend the Medicine God Conference?"
"Of course. But the reason he attended the Medicine God Conference was because he had an appointment with me."
Zhan Xuanyuan told all the reasons why he and Lu Lan met.
This also included the fact that he forced Dawu's neighboring country, Dafeng, to send troops.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Caiye's expression changed and became cold and serious.
"Zhan Xuanyuan! I didn't say anything when you secretly studied Gu Dao in the Medicine God Sect."
"Yet you actually started a war, just for your own selfish desires. Have you... forgotten that you were once a disciple of the Medicine God Sect?"
Xiang Caiye said sternly:
"Although it's impossible for us, the Medicine God Sect, to ensure the safety of all people in the world, we will never allow any of our Medicine God Sect members to use their abilities to take the lives of others!"
"Do you know how many people have died indirectly at your hands as a result of inciting war for your own selfish desires?!"
Zhan Xuanyuan didn't take Xiang Caiye's harsh scolding seriously and said calmly:
"Isn't it your Medicine God Sect that refuses to acknowledge me as a disciple?"
When Zhan Xuanyuan said this, Xiang Caiye was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say for a moment.
It is indeed as Zhan Xuanyuan said.
Ever since the Medicine God Sect discovered that he was secretly practicing the art of Gu, everyone in the sect was shocked. Most of the top leaders were extremely angry and even threatened to punish and kill Zhan Xuanyuan.
If his master had not forcibly saved him on the grounds of expelling him, this trouble would not have happened later.
There was silence in the room.
"So, is the relationship between you and him...good or bad?"
Asked Xiang Caiye.
“Not very good.”
Zhan Xuanyuan answered truthfully:
"He's a man who will never let go of a grudge. I almost destroyed the country he was born into. It's impossible for him to be completely free of resentment."
"I am only needed by him as his guide in Cangshen Country... Once he completes the agreement between us..."
"Maybe a big battle will start between the two of us."
Speaking of this, Zhan Xuanyuan actually smiled expectantly.
"Aren't you afraid of dying in his hands?"
Asked Xiang Caiye.
"I just observed him. Although he is only at the first level of the Xuanyuan Realm, his foundation is very good. Even among the geniuses of the five major families, there is absolutely no one who can compare to him."
"And from what I know, at his age, he was able to break through to the Xuanyuan Realm in a place like the Great Wu Kingdom. This can be considered a miracle in the Great Wu Kingdom."
"More importantly... he obviously has a lot of secrets... aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
"It doesn't matter. If he really wants to fight me, I'll take it."
Zhan Xuanyuan said leisurely:
"What's more, I've witnessed his improvement with my own eyes and I know him relatively well."
"By then, it's still uncertain who will win or lose."
Seeing Zhan Xuanyuan so confident, Xiang Caiye didn't know what to say.
"Then you must not fight a life-and-death battle."
Xiang Caiye suddenly said:
"Whether it's you or him, if you die, it will be a pity for our Yaoshen Sect."
"I do believe that my death would be a pity for my master."
Zhan Xuanyuan sneered:
