Zhang Chengfeng sat still with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened in the slightest. The moment Ye Mo made his move, he knew what Ye Mo had in mind. Although he could have stopped it, he did not. Although he didn’t want to get into trouble with the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ right now, there was no need to help the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ either. To him, it didn’t matter if he got a free ‘Face Preserving Pill’ in return for this small favour, but that was about it.
Ye Mo certainly knew that Zhang Chengfeng had the chance to stop it, and if this he did, there would be no need for him to continue to flatter Zhang Chengfeng. He would immediately excuse his lack of money and ask Zhang Chengfeng to take out spirit stones. After he received the spirit stones, he would immediately leave River City, and it was a good thing that Zhang Chengfeng did not help this Young Pavilion Master.
“How dare you, how dare you sneakily a*sa*sinate and backstab my ‘Wan Dan Pavilion Chapter 856 – How many grades of alchemist are you? City Master Zhang, this Ye Mo dares to openly strike and injure someone in my River State City ……” Peng Shiping, however, did not have Zhang Chengfeng’s skills, and when he saw the Young Pavilion Master being a*sa*sinated, he was not capable of stepping in to save him.
He was tempted to immediately take action against Ye Mo, but he knew that Zhang Chengfeng had just accepted a bribe from Ye Mo. He could only settle down Zhang Chengfeng first, and as long as Zhang Chengfeng did not make a move, then he could pinch Ye Mo as much as he wanted.
However, Ye Mo said indifferently, “Steward Peng, what just happened was also seen by City Master Zhang, and I believe that City Master Zhang will be able to see the light of day. I, Ye Mo, am not talented, but I am also like City Master Zhang, a person who values the relationship between husband and wife. You ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ are a mere piece of trash who dared to molest my wife, it is lucky that I didn’t kill him.”
Zhang Chengfeng, however, nodded and said, “I also saw clearly what happened just now, it was indeed the young pavilion master of the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ River State Branch Pavilion who was wrong, I do support what Brother Ye did.
“City Master Zhang, this Ye Mo is just a small outsider Foundation Establishment cultivator, could it be that City Master Zhang is actually defending an outsider?” Peng Shiping said reluctantly even though he knew that Zhang Chengfeng had accepted a bribe.
Ye Mo, however, laughed and said, “I do have a solution for Steward Peng’s mood in Chapter 856 – How many grades of alchemist are you anyway, doesn’t that young cabinet master of yours like to molest, you can just lead that young cabinet master back and let him molest your wife.”
“How dare you ……” Peng Shiping was immediately about to go berserk.
Zhang Chengfeng snorted coldly, but did not say anything, obviously a little dissatisfied in his heart. Knowing full well that he had accepted Ye Mo’s ‘Face Preserving Pill’ at least this matter would not sit idly by, this Peng Shiping still dared to make a move, that was too arrogant.
When Peng Shiping heard Zhang Chengfeng’s words, how could he not know that he was already dissatisfied. Although he wanted to teach Ye Mo a lesson right away, he knew it was unrealistic. After thinking about it, he had to stand up and give a fist hug to Zhang Chengfeng and Yan Zheng, turn around and go out to lead that Young Pavilion Master to leave quickly.
“Haha.” When Yan Zheng saw Peng Shiping leave, he suddenly laughed and then gave Ye Mo a thumbs up and said, “Brother Ye is really bold, even the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ Young Pavilion Master can be beaten up whenever he wants, cool. It’s just that this young pavilion master’s father, Lu Jucheng, is the pavilion master of the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’ Hezhou branch pavilion, with a cultivation level of the Great Perfection of the Golden Dan, and I heard that he has already closed down to impact the YuanYing stage, with the abundant resources of the ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’, I believe it’s only a matter of time before he advances to the YuanYing stage ……”
Ye Mo’s heart ‘thumped’ when he heard that Lu Jucheng was actually a fellow who was already at Golden Dan Perfection and could advance to YuanYing cultivation at any time. He thought that a sub-pavilion’s pavilion master would only be a mid-Jindan at most, but he didn’t expect that he would be an existence that was about to reach YuanYing, which was honestly out of his expectation.
If a Jindan cultivator was still able to manoeuvre, then when faced with a YuanYing cultivator, he was afraid that he would not even be able to say a word.
It seems to see Ye Mo’s worries, but Zhang Chengfeng also said with a smile, “Brother Ye doesn’t need to worry too much, just develop ‘Huaxia Pharmaceutical’ in my Hezhou City, I believe that ‘Ten Thousand Dan Pavilion’ wouldn’t dare to mess around in Hezhou City. ”
Ye Mo discarded his scruples and clasped his fist in gratitude, “Then, thank you, Brother Zhang, I will stay in this River State City. Please don’t resist this ‘Face Retaining Pill’.”
After saying this, Ye Mo sent the ‘Face Residing Pill’ to Zhang Chengfeng’s hand with a willing look.
That was what he said, but in his heart, Ye Mo cursed, none of these guys were good. This Zhang Chengfeng had gotten him a ‘Face Preserving Pill’ and only sent out a few words that were not light but not itchy, even using him as a gun to suppress the ‘Ten Thousand Dan Pavilion’.
After Zhang Chengfeng got the benefit, he immediately stood up and left Ye Mo’s small shop, as if the words he just said to Ye Mo about calling him brother were not his words at all. Ye Mo watched Zhang Chengfeng leave somewhat speechlessly, he knew that he had really looked away this time.
Originally, Ye Mo had taken out the ‘Face Preserving Pill’ to give away to someone, he saw that Zhang Chengfeng was handsome and dashing, and he even came here specially as the lord of a city in order to help his wife buy a ‘Face Preserving Pill’, which made him feel good. However, now Ye Mo fully understood that Zhang Chengfeng had some good feelings towards him, but these good feelings were not enough for him to give anything substantial in order to befriend him, Ye Mo.
To put it bluntly, it was that apart from Ye Mo’s ‘Face Preserving Pill’, Ye Mo’s future and his status as an alchemist were simply not in the eyes of others.
This City Master Zhang was a very practical person, and he would never do an investment without a return. A cultivator with Jindan status, he would not lower his status to befriend Ye Mo, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator. He had taken Ye Mo’s ‘Face Preserving Pill’ for nothing, and he even thought that his words to Peng Shiping just now were enough to repay Ye Mo’s ‘Face Preserving Pill’. This person was really just like what he thought, he was very enthusiastic when he begged, once he had achieved his goal, the person he had just begged didn’t even recognize him.
Ye Mo secretly sighed, but in his heart, he was thinking whether he should leave River City.
However, when he turned all these thoughts around, he found that Yan Zheng was still sitting across the table and had not left.
Yan Zheng saw Ye Mo’s face change for a long time before he remembered him, but he didn’t mind, instead he clasped his fist again and said, “Now that those two have left, let’s get reacquainted again, my name is Yan Zheng, the steward of the ‘Immortal Treasure House’ River State Branch.”
Ye Mo was a little puzzled by Yan Zheng’s attitude, but he still returned, , “Huaxia Pharmaceutical’ Ye Mo, I wonder if Steward Yan is staying, is there anything else he would like to instruct?”
However, Yan Zheng smiled slightly and said, “Brother Ye please forgive me for my shallow friendship, I can see that Brother Ye is a daring person, and I also know why Brother Ye took out the ‘Face Preserving Pill’ and gave it to City Master Zhang ……. ”
Here Yan Zheng’s tone paused for a moment, then his words changed: “Only, Brother Ye is afraid that he doesn’t know much about City Master Zhang, and this intention will only be difficult to succeed.”
Ye Mo knew that he was in a bamboo basket after Zhang Chengfeng had obtained the ‘Face Residing Pill’ and left, and now that Yan Zheng had said it, how could he not know that Yan Zheng had seen what he had in mind. But the ‘Face Preserving Pill’ was precious to you others, and that was all it was to him.
Seeing that Ye Mo didn’t answer himself, Yan Zheng continued without a care in the world: “Does Brother Ye know why City Lord Zhang and Brother Ye want to address each other as brothers? Just as City Master Zhang does not see me and Peng Shiping in the slightest, yet he is still polite to me. No matter what, it’s just that I’m not the one standing behind my ‘Immortal Treasure House’. Besides, Brother Ye may not know that City Master Zhang is often very warm and welcoming, and Brother Ye’s master is also very human.”
Ye Mo laughed bitterly in his heart, of course he could hear the meaning of Yan Zheng’s words, often enthusiastic, that in other words meant that people’s City Master Zhang’s enthusiasm was limited by time and place and people, it was not really enthusiastic at all.
Ye Mo was not a fool, he was just a fan of the authorities. Just by listening to these few words from Yan Zheng, he knew that people Zhang Chengfeng was certainly calling him brother because of the ‘Face Preserving Pill’, but it was more because of the imaginary master behind him.
This guy, Zhang, who looked like a talented man, was so snobbish. Obviously this was something that Peng Shiping, besides him who was in authority, could also see that Zhang Chengfeng did not see him, Ye Mo, in his eyes to be like this. And the reason why he didn’t see it, that was mainly because only he himself knew that he didn’t have that so-called powerful master at all.
“Hehe, it’s a pity about Brother Ye’s ‘Face Preserving Pill’.” Yan Zheng chuckled and said blandly.
Ye Mo figured out this reason and didn’t really care much, he also laughed, “Brother Yan is really insightful, could it be that Brother Yan is saying this to me because he wants me to ask Zhang Zhangshi for the ‘Face Residing Pill’ back?”
“Of course not.” Yan Zheng looked at Ye Mo and said, “The reason I am staying is that I truly want to become friends with Brother Ye, and if Brother Ye does not mind, I, Yan Zheng, am willing to take on this dispute between ‘Huaxia Pharmaceutical’ and ‘Wan Dan Pavilion’. I just don’t know if Brother Ye will give this face?”
In fact, after learning of Zhang Chengfeng’s mind, Ye Mo already had the intention of leaving Hezhou, but now Yan Zheng’s words made him somewhat confused about the meaning. Yan Zheng and him were also meeting for the first time, so what made him think so highly of him? And was he willing to dispute with the ‘Ten Thousand Dan Pavilion’ because of his matter?
Seeming to see Ye Mo’s doubts, Yan Zheng smiled again, “Brother Ye, in fact, my ‘Immortal Treasure House’ and the ‘Ten Thousand Dan Pavilion’ have always had conflicts, and even if it wasn’t for Brother Ye’s matter, they wouldn’t have become friends. The reason why I admire Brother Ye, apart from the fact that Brother Ye is an alchemist, there is also the fact that Brother Ye is someone who can become a friend at first glance, and I believe that my eyes will not be wrong.”
Yan Zheng’s words had come to this point, so of course Ye Mo would not continue to pretend not to know, besides, befriending the ‘Immortal Treasure House’ would only do him good, not harm. He said dryly, “Thank you, Brother Yan, for looking up to Ye Mo, then Ye Mo will be bothering Brother Yan more in the future.”
“Good. Then, in that case, I won’t talk too much. Brother Ye, actually this place you rented is also my ‘Immortal Treasure House’ property, and the land within nearly 10,000 square metres around this shop pavilion is also my ‘Immortal Treasure House’ land. If Brother Ye does not mind, I will give these places to Brother Ye on my own initiative as the starting place for ‘Huaxia Pharmaceutical’.” Yan Zheng said without hesitation.
“Ah.” Ye Mo was really stunned, every inch of land in Hezhou City was gold, this Yan Zheng, as a housekeeper, had such ambition?
“Brother Ye, I, Yan Zheng, have genuinely come to make friends with you, I think Brother Ye should not be a mere Spirit Grade 1 alchemist, right? I guess that ‘Yiyuan Dan’ of your shop should have come from your hand, right? That can be said to be the handiwork of a master. The main purpose of my visit today, however, is not for the ‘Face Preserving Pill’ but to know, Brother Ye, how many grades of alchemist are you?” Seeing that Ye Mo was somewhat hesitant, Yan Zheng immediately said again.
