As long as the Spirit Alchemist ran into something not to his liking, the Elixir Fire Union would intervene regardless of who was in the wrong in the matter.

In the most serious case, a Spirit Alchemist went to someone wedding banquet to drink wine, and took a liking to the bride, and started causing trouble, and speaking rudely to them, and in the end, the host couldn’t bear it any longer, and beat the alchemist.

If it was the Elixir a.s.sociation, they would have punished the Spirit Alchemist severely, and might even cripple him, but the Elixir Fire Union was different from it.

The Elixir Fire Union killed the host, and his group, and brought the bride to the Spirit Alchemist’s bed.

This matter caused a great sensation, and all people, who weren’t Spirit Alchemists, were infuriated, and even the Elixir a.s.sociation’s Spirit Alchemists were implicated.

However, this matter was still put down in the end, and didn’t lead to anything, but the Elixir a.s.sociation knew clearly that once the Spirit Zone’s Spirit Clan started a war, they could use this matter as an excuse for killing Spirit Alchemists.

“Your Elixir Fire Union shouldn’t be unaware of the Dark Era?” Yang Jingchi asked.

The Dark Era didn’t refer to the era, where humans were being slaughtered by demons and beasts, but it was referring to a major event, which occurred in the Nine Realms several hundred years ago.

It started from the Sacred Zone, as a faction there gave rise to a great disaster. They claimed that Spirit Alchemist shouldn’t have a high and aloof position, as there weren’t any different from ordinary artisans, and it was power, which should determine everything, and they mustn’t be respected.

Such words gave rise to a turmoil among the Nine Realms’ factions, which were all usually respectful to Spirit Alchemists, and served them properly.

However, they discovered then that they didn’t really need to care about the Spirit Alchemists’ consent, and they turned them into a sort of resources, which all factions fought over. They captured them, and imprisoned them in Elixir Production Rooms, and deprived them from even getting to see the sky, and daylight, and forced them to make elixirs every day.

The Spirit Alchemists started then hiding all around, and they didn’t even dare to claim to be Spirit Alchemists.

In the end, such preposterous situation came to end when the Nine Realms’ Sacred Inst.i.tute took charge of this matter, and it exterminated the Sacred Zone’s faction, which gave rise to such a disaster.

After the Spirit Alchemists went through this matter, they all made a set of conduct rules for themselves.

Jiang Chen’s Spirit Alchemist teacher, which he invited over in the past, was also someone, who went through the Dark Era.

He still remembered clearly that he once said to him that he mustn’t be an arrogant bully after becoming a Spirit Alchemist, and he mustn’t bully the weak, and fear the strong.

It was because Spirit Alchemists didn’t have strength adequate with their status and position, and everything they had was given to them by powerful factions.

Jiang Chen once made a research, and discovered that the number of spirit elixirs, which appeared in the Dark Era, was the highest in the past several thousand years, and many Heaven Elixirs and Immortal Elixirs even appeared, while the Spirit Alchemist’s casualties were also the highest in such an era.

If enslaving Spirit Alchemists wouldn’t let the factions close to destruction, many great factions would still continue enslaving them.

If a faction was enslaving Spirit Alchemists, a faction hostile to it could use such a matter as an excuse to rally infuriated Spirit Alchemists, and let them help it make countless spirit elixirs.

“Yang Jingchi, I know that the Elixir a.s.sociation had a long history, but isn’t it clinging to the past too much. The Dark Era? It’s even still possible?” The beautiful woman spoke disdainfully.

Jiang Chen spoke coldly, “Regardless of whether the appearance of the Dark Era again was possible or not. All people, no matter if they were Spirit Alchemists or not, mustn’t commit outrages, and disregard human’s life value.”

“When you said that Spirit Clan’s members are n.o.bler than normal people, are you implying that they are also people, who willfully slaughter innocent, and don’t care about common people.”

The beautiful woman could still disregard his first words, but the following ones would leave her with a great bad name.

“When did I say such a matter?”

“If you didn’t say it, then that’s better,” Jiang Chen spoke mockingly, as he looked at her current appearance.

“I will leave such words today. If you don’t give me a satisfactory answer, not only will I join the Elixir Fire Union, I will also offer the knowledge and exercise, which I got in the Elixir a.s.sociation to them, and it will be the case for even the Void Tearing Pill’s recipe.”

Master Wu, Wu Fan, who was on the other side, spoke, and increased his chip to raise his value to both sides, as only then could he ask more extravagant requests from them.

“Wu Fan, get lost!”

What no one expected was that Yang Jingchi loudly shouted now, and said, “From now onward, you are expelled from the Elixir a.s.sociation, and if you don’t leave the Elixir Building in a minute, you will be killed.”

Just this shout alone let Jiang Chen have a more favorable impression of the Elixir a.s.sociation.

“Good! Good!”

Wu Fan was so infuriated that his face became dark. He stood up, and said, “I will see what you can do now. I’m the only one who can make Void Tearing Pills, and if the city’s factions couldn’t get enough supplies, they will go to look for the Elixir Fire Union.”

The Void Tearing Pill’s recipe was what he depended upon most.

Yang Jingchi’s firm gaze wavered at this moment. He didn’t care about the medical ingredients in the furnace, and he didn’t care even about the worth of the manufactured pills.

But, the issue was that the Elixir Fire Union would take avail of such an opportunity to steal their business in Beiw.a.n.g City, and let them suffer grave losses.

Big Dipper Wilderness was one of the great desolate lands, and it belonged to his Wing Prefecture, and once he lost it, it would be considered a dereliction of his duty.

“Wu Fan, are you truly this heartless? The Elixir a.s.sociation never treated us poorly,” Master Tao couldn’t bear speaking now.

“Is it? Then why did my grandson suffer such a grievance today?” Wu Fan said coldly.

“He really suffered a great grievance. After his foolish scheme failed, he ran over to his grandpa to wail in front of him. Why does he seem quite like a girl?”

Jiang Chen mocked him, however, when he just finished his words, he noticed that Ji Yinyi was looking at him fiercely.

He chuckled softly. He almost forgot that the Three Middle Realms’ women were also not easy to handle.

“Grandpa, it’s him,” Young Master Xuan said angrily.

Wu Fan started examining the youngster with his arrogant gaze, before he spoke in mockery, “Master Tao, you are also not up to much, as such a kid managed to see through you.”

Master Tao’s face stiffened, as he didn’t expect that he would start targeting him.

“My conditions are quite simple. I want to be responsible for making breakthrough spirit elixirs, as well as take her as my disciple.”

Wu Fan stated his aims, while he pointed at Ji Ruxue.

The beautiful woman was startled, and thought, Master Wu was still attached to the Elixir a.s.sociation, and wanted to make great accomplishments in it.

This wasn’t something, which she was willing to witness. She already made many preparations in Beiw.a.n.g City, and she concentrated her efforts on Young Master Xuan on purpose, and waited for this day’s opportunity.

“It’s out of the question!”

It was fortunate that she didn’t need to speak now, as someone else was helping her.

Moreover, the person, who spoke, was Ji Ruxue. She said, “He couldn’t even distinguish between right and wrong, so how can he be my teacher.”

“You! You!”

Wu Fan was infuriated greatly, as a young girl, which came from a small desolate land, dared to question a solemn eighth-grade Spirit Alchemist like him in such a way.

“Master, don’t let anger get over you, and harm your body as it will be bad if you take your last breath now,” Jiang Chen ridiculed him, and raised his thumb at Ji Ruxue.

Wu Fan almost fainted from anger, and he lowered his head, and took swift steps toward the beautiful woman, “If the Elixir a.s.sociation don’t want me to stay in it, there is still someone else, who want me.”

“Wait!” Jiang Chen called him.

“What?”

Wu Fan didn’t have a good impression of Jiang Chen, and when he turned his head back, and looked, he saw him standing beside a two-meter-long elixir furnace.

He witnessed Jiang Chen walking in circles around the elixir furnace, as he spoke, “You said that Master, who was seen through by me, doesn’t amount to much, but don’t you know that it’s easier for me to see through you.”

“Is it? Then what did you manage to see?” Wu Fan spoke in mockery.

“Tras.h.!.+” Jiang Chen replied.

His sudden curse baffled all people, however, Jiang Chen wasn’t someone, who would get angry and try to infuriate people on purpose.

Moreover, he still wore a serious look now, as if he was a.s.sessing, and judging it earnestly.

“It’s a furnace filled with trash.”
