Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 132: Regretting the Past

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Regretting the Past

"If that’s the case, I can agree to your request for the sake of this page of the Medicine King Scripture! However, let me be clear upfront, I must have absolute freedom. Whether I refine elixirs for the Hong Family will entirely depend on my mood."

In the entire Jianyun Dynasty, probably only Chu Feng would dare to be so coldly arrogant and wildly conceited in front of the Hong Family Master.

So conceited!

Who does he think he is, possessing such a treasure as the Medicine King Scripture and yet acting so haughty?

Elder Cousin looked at Chu Feng with a face full of envy, thinking if you don’t wish to agree, then give this opportunity to me instead. Even without the Medicine King Scripture, I’d be willing a thousand times over just to be a Guest Alchemist.

Unfortunately, the Hong Family Master completely ignored Elder Cousin, who was bursting with eagerness and full of hopeful anticipation.

Hearing Chu Feng agree to become the Guest Alchemist of the Hong Family, he felt as if fortune had descended from the heavens.

He laughed as if he had picked up a great bargain, nodding repeatedly in agreement to Chu Feng’s conditions and presenting the Medicine King Scripture with both hands.

Chu Feng received the Medicine King Scripture and examined it closely. Both surprise and joy on his face grew increasingly intense.

"I did not expect that this page of the Medicine King Scripture records the Secret Technique of Abnormal Fire Devouring!"

No wonder the Hong Family Master said this particular page was of no use to the Hong Family. Because among all the pill masters in the world fortunate enough to possess an Abnormal Fire are very few. The Hong Family has never had anyone obtain an Abnormal Fire in nearly a thousand years.

You see, Chu Feng in his previous life was a Level 1 Alchemy Venerate and yet he had never acquired an Abnormal Fire.

For a minor family like the Hong Family, they shouldn’t even dream of it.

Now is not the time to study the Medicine King Scripture, Chu Feng tucked it into his bosom. The Hong Family Master, very sensibly, immediately smiled and clasped his hands in farewell to Chu Feng.

Having delivered a generous gift, his purpose had been accomplished.

With Chu Feng, a formidable alchemist, supporting the Hong Family, it is believed that they will surely soar to great heights. It is very possible to surpass their rival, the Mo Family, who has pressed down on the Hong Family for many years.

Isn’t it all because of that Second-grade Talisman Elixir Master from the Mo Family?

Now with Chu Feng, an unparalleled genius of the Alchemy Dao, holding the fort for the Hong Family, it will be tough for the Mo Family to act superior in front of the Hong Family anymore.

The Hong Family Master left with a face full of smiles.

Yang Fang, who looked down on Chu Feng, now had a face filled with regret.

Her expression changed uncertainly, wanting to go cozy up to Chu Feng but unable to swallow her pride; after all, her heart is filled with immense pride.

But not going would mean missing a great opportunity.

At this moment, she realized that her bragging Elder Cousin wasn’t as impressive as she imagined. Instead, it was Chu Feng, the unassuming youth, who was truly outstanding.

It really fits the old saying, "A half-filled bottle rattles, a full bottle does not."

Thinking back, when Yang Fang mocked Chu Feng and looked down on him, Chu Feng did not explain nor did he get angry. At the time, Yang Fang thought that Chu Feng was showing weakness.

It turns out, it wasn’t weakness at all, but rather, he disdained to argue with her.

This is truly the demeanour of a great person.

"Niece Yang Fang, what are you standing there for? Come over here quickly!"

Her aunt, who had been showing off her superiority in front of Chu Feng by constantly praising her son, was, in a way, slapped invisibly by the Hong Family Master.

So it turns out that this Prince of the Sword King Mansion had such great abilities.

The aunt is a very pragmatic person, knowing Chu Feng possesses great abilities and holds a status ten times higher than her son. She immediately harbored the thought of currying favor.

How to please him?

It’s only natural to turn this marriage proposal into a reality.

By then, she would become Chu Feng’s matchmaker. With this connection, it would be easier to ask Chu Feng for help in the future.

Yang Fang had long regretted her earlier actions deeply, and now it was a good time to gracefully back down.

Immediately, she walked back to the table and looked at Chu Feng with complicated and timid eyes, "I was too superficial before and should not have hastily drawn conclusions and mocked you. I sincerely apologize to you!"

In her heart, Yang Fang still held great expectations.

She was very confident in her own appearance. Though not a national beauty, she definitely qualified as a delicate homebred damsel.

Qiao Yue’er revealed a joyful smile, thinking to herself that if she had known her little uncle was so capable, why would she need to worry about his marital affairs?

Girls wanting to marry him would definitely form a long queue.

Chu Feng’s expression remained indifferent and calm, "Miss Yang Fang, there is no need for you to apologize! I’ve never cared about it!" Honestly, from Chu Feng’s perspective, a girl with above-average looks like Yang Fang didn’t catch his eye.

Although Yang Fang was ambitious and self-reliant, her personality was too assertive, and she was somewhat materialistic.

Before Chu Feng’s status was exposed, her attitude towards him was not like this. Conversely, she adored his married elder cousin and whispered and giggled with him, playing ambiguously.

To put it bluntly, that is being disrespectful and lacking self-love.

Yang Fang, hearing Chu Feng’s words, thought he was captivated by her beauty which is why he held no grudges against her. She immediately smiled widely and said, "Let’s get to know each other again, my name is Yang Fang. Can I be your girlfriend?"

Her words were very bold and direct.

Having just seen the humble attitude of the Hong Family Master towards Chu Feng, she had already regarded Chu Feng as a potential golden catch—a highest-level Purple Gold class.

As Chu Feng’s girlfriend, her future would definitely be luxurious and bright.

The life of a happy and wealthy lady was right in front of her.

"Sorry, I think Miss Yang and I are not suitable! With Miss Yang’s talents, you can definitely find someone better than me. I wish you happiness!" Chu Feng bluntly rejected without a second thought.

When I was down, you disregarded me. When I was successful, you were too low to reach me.

Not too long ago, Yang Fang mocked Chu Feng in front of everyone, saying he was completely unworthy of her.

Now, Chu Feng let her know that it wasn’t that he wasn’t good enough for her, but rather that she wasn’t good enough for him.

A mere manager at Hong’s Alchemy Store, what significance does she hold in front of a Guest Alchemist at Hong’s Alchemy Store like Chu Feng? Her status is no different from a humble servant.

In terms of potential and capability, she was far from matching Chu Feng.

"Heh...I was indeed reaching too high...aunt, thank you for your hospitality...it’s all my fault for not cherishing..." Yang Fang choked up several times, forced a smile, tears running down, and covered her face as she hurried out of the restaurant.

She knew that once missed, it meant missed forever; there would no longer be another chance.

If she had seized the opportunity from the start, not being so mercenary, perhaps she could have become Chu Feng’s wife.

"Little uncle, you..." Qiao Yue’er stomped her foot anxiously, what kind of situation was this.

The girl had already agreed to be Chu Feng’s girlfriend, yet Chu Feng had decisively refused.

"Sister-in-law, let’s go home! Now that you know about my situation, there’s no need to worry about my marital affairs anymore," Chu Feng said indifferently.

Chu Feng, unbothered, thanked his aunt and elder cousin "Thank you for your kind hospitality! Goodbye!"

Saying so, he suavely walked out of the restaurant.

He wanted to go back and study the newly obtained Medicine King Scripture. Absorbing the Abnormal Fire to evolve his Nine Yang Strange Fire was extremely enticing for him.
