Chapter 26: Twenty-six, you dare to steal the Shang Family’s Elixir!
The Family Head of the Shang Family spoke with reverence, even slightly bowing his figure, but it had been a long time since his words fell, and there was still no sign of movement inside the alchemy room, which made those with lower strength in the Shang Family doubt whether the Family Head sensed it wrong.
Shang Yan asked himself and he would never sense it wrong; due to Fu Du’s involvement, these past few days no other Meridian Refining Masters had been allowed into the alchemy room, and he sensed that only this alchemy room emitted a faint presence, if not that esteemed Fu Du, then who could it be?
After a long time without a response, Shang Yan’s son, Shang Ying, grew impatient and stepped forward, intending to knock on the door, but in the next moment, he was stopped by his father.
"It seems that Fu Du is in a critical moment of alchemy; we must not disturb him!" After Shang Yan said this, a trace of fear arose in him, secretly thinking that he had been somewhat reckless just now.
The path of alchemy strictly forbids disturbances, Shang Yan was secretly relieved that the noise insulation of the Commerce Medicine Pavilion was quite good, hoping that the voice just now had not affected Fu Du.
Hearing his father’s words, Shang Ying immediately understood and thought of that person’s temperament and strength; cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and without Shang Yan saying more, he retreated several steps on his own.
"It seems we can only wait until Fu Du has finished refining before we pay our respects!"
Shang Yan muttered to himself, then glanced at the alchemy room, but frowned, turned his head to ask: "Shang Li, what is this way of doing things? How could you arrange Fu Du in such an alchemy room?"
This alchemy room was the most secluded and completely inconsistent with the status of a Spiritual Rank Low Level Meridian Refining Master like Fu Du. Shang Yan naturally became angry. If this provoked dissatisfaction with that person, the entire Shang Family would suffer the consequences.
Upon hearing this, Shang Li’s eye twitched fiercely, he sneakily glanced at a spot of not yet dried pus and blood, and dared not speak the truth. Instead, he tried to shift the blame by saying, "These past few days I have been entangled in worldly affairs; I left everything to Xue Shou to manage the Commerce Medicine Pavilion, I didn’t expect that fat bastard to be so incompetent!"
