Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 2085

Chapter 2085 The 5

Outside of the doors stood 5 divine realm cultivators, none of whom Alex recognized in the slightest. He only guessed who they were based on their strength and invited them into the store.

The 5 walked in, the 3 men and 2 women looking around the place as they nodded to themselves. Alex walked with them until they reached the lounge area of the store and showed them someplace to sit down.

Alex sneaked a glance toward Wang Yanwei, looking at her expression. Her aghast look told him that his hunch was in fact very much correct.

There were people from the 3 great families and the 2 great sects that were located within the Newsky city.

"I am deeply honored to have seniors visit my store," Alex said with a little bow. "Please tell this junior how he may be of aid to you all."

"There's no need to be nervous," one of the women said with as ample a smile as she could put. Her gray hair made her look more aged than she would've with just black hair.

"We heard about your accomplishment," another one said. "I am very sad that we missed such an incredible performance from you." Cheêck out latest novels on n/o/ve/l/bin(.)c/o/m

"That's alright," Alex replied. "It was only a duel between two Immortal alchemists. I wouldn't watch a duel between juniors myself if I was prompted with the choice."

"I have heard great things about your store from my granddaughter Mihua," the man in the middle said. "She brought home some of your pills, although she failed to mention who they were from."

"I made her swear to secrecy, so she wasn't at fault," Alex said. "Besides, you already have an incredible Alchemist in your family as well, so I doubt you care that much about me."

"What do you—" the old man paused, his eyes moved toward Wang Yanwei in the back. Only then did he realize what Alex was talking about. Yanwei glared at the old man openly, not a single attempt at veiling her hostility toward this man. This was her grandfather that disowned his daughter for marrying the man she loved, just because that did make another connection for the family to exploit.

"I... I suppose," the old man said, hiding his true feelings from the rest. He was angry and ashamed at the same time, but he couldn't act up here.

"How did you get so good at Alchemy, junior?" the second woman asked. "I asked my nephew how difficult it would be for him to do what you did, and he told me that even after reaching the Divine realm, he would still struggle at it. He would need tens of thousands of years to reach where you already are."

Alex was a little curious. "Who might your nephew be?" he asked.

Guild Master Blackfrost walked in first and looked inside with a hint of surprise on his face. "You all arrived so quickly," he told the others. "You really couldn't wait, huh?"

"Blackfrost, you've come to stop us from talking with your guild's Alchemist, haven't you?" the Ming family's head asked.

"Stop you? No, I have no intention of doing that. I just had someone who wanted to speak with Alchemist Dawnblade as well."

Silvermist walked in, tall and broad as well. Behind him, the one-eyed Grimsight walked in as well. Wang Yanwei shut the door and walked back along with them.

"Oh! There are people inside?" Silvermist said with some surprise, as though he hadn't sensed them inside already.

The 5 looked at Silvermist and Grimsight, but neither of them was recognized. Not a single one of them had seen the two before at all.

"Have you come to have a chat with Alchemist Dawnblade as well?" the Han family head said. "Come join us. We just started as well."

Silvermist looked at the five and then the rest. "I only wish to talk to the young Alchemist by myself. Can the rest of you please leave?"

The staff members didn't need to be said twice. They walked over to the other room. Rocksoul left too, wanting nothing to do with Divine realm cultivators. He would've been happy if he didn't have to be here at all.

Fang Yuxie paused for a moment and waited for Wang Yanwei to leave with her.

Wang Yanwei very much didn't want to leave. She wanted to see what this grandfather of hers was going to be saying if he would say anything. But then, she noticed Blackfrost's gesture for her to leave as well.

So, she reluctantly turned around and left for the other room with Fang Yuxie.

The massive lounging area now had Alex as the sole Immortal and the others that surrounded him were 8 different Divine realm cultivators."

"Well, you can speak freely, fellow Daoist," the Han family woman said.

Silvermist raised an eyebrow. "Was I not clear? I said I wanted to speak to this young man in private," he said, his gaze landing on all of them. "That means everyone needs to leave."
