Chapter 542 Rumors
Many eyes turned towards President Qing Ru of Youhai Commerce.
At this moment, Jing Yan was undoubtedly the center of attention, and his attire indicated he was representing Youhai Commerce.
Everyone knew that this would greatly enhance the reputation of Youhai Commerce.
What’s the most important thing for a commerce association?
Of course, it’s business! The bigger your reputation, the more people are willing to do business with you.
"Alchemist number sixty-six is Alchemist Jing Yan. Alchemist Jing Yan is not an internal alchemist of Youhai Commerce, but during this Alchemy festival, Alchemist Jing Yan indeed represented our Youhai Commerce!" Qing Ru said with a gentle smile on her face.
"As for the identity and background of Alchemist Jing Yan, I can’t reveal too much. All I can tell you is that Alchemist Jing Yan came from Lanqu County. Not long ago, I heard a rumor that there is a Great Alchemist King residing in Lanqu County, although I don’t know how true this news is." Qing Ru’s eyes slightly twinkled as she spoke in a casual tone.
Zhou Shangyun gazed intently at Qing Ru.
A Great Alchemist King in Lanqu County? How come I didn’t know about it?
Zhou Shangyun was the Prince of Lanqu County. If a Great Alchemist King were residing in Lanqu County, he, as the Prince, should have known. Of course, it could be possible that the Great Alchemist King did not wish to be disturbed, hence the information was not available. But then, how did Qing Ru come upon such a rumor?
A thought crossed his mind, and Zhou Shangyun immediately understood.
This statement by Qing Ru was probably completely fabricated. However, Qing Ru was indeed very clever; she had said it was just a rumor and the authenticity of the information could not be confirmed.
