Chapter 41 - 39 The Identity of Reverence
With just a single swipe, the Purple Pattern Gold Card in Ye Chen’s hand suddenly increased by one hundred thousand Gold Coins—a fortune so vast that it likely equated to the maximum combined annual income of all the Ye Family’s properties in Luofeng City.

If one were a Second Star Alchemist, wouldn’t that imply even greater power and influence?
With that thought, the Great Elder couldn’t help but cautiously ask, "Ye Chen, this Mr. Qian is...?"
