Chapter 585 Hu Donghe Shakes
As the City Lord of Pill Spirit City, Hu Donghe was certainly not someone an ordinary person could easily meet.
However, when he heard that Jing Yan wanted to see him, he did not hesitate at all and immediately had the guards bring Jing Yan into the City Lord Mansion.
"City Lord!" Jing Yan greeted Hu Donghe with a salute as soon as he saw him.
"Alchemist Jing Yan, what brings you here to see me?" Hu Donghe asked with a smile.
"I’d like to ask the City Lord some questions about the Alchemy Dao," Jing Yan responded with a smile as well.
"That’s excellent. Although Alchemist Jing Yan is not yet a High-level Alchemist, your understanding of the Alchemy Dao is in some respects better than mine!" Hu Donghe gestured for Jing Yan to sit down.
"However," Hu Donghe said smilingly, looking at Jing Yan, "I suspect your visit is not merely to discuss the Alchemy Dao with me, is it?"
Hearing this, Jing Yan knew that Hu Donghe must have heard the rumors about him and guessed that this visit was concerning that very matter.
"City Lord, your insight is truly keen!" Jing Yan did not beat around the bush and directly recounted the whole situation.
"That Alchemist Leng Feng truly has a bad character! Yang Xiao also told me about this matter," Hu Donghe said, nodding after a moment of contemplation upon hearing Jing Yan’s story.
"However, Alchemist Jing Yan, do you have any evidence that the Jade Building smeared your name?" Hu Donghe asked with raised eyebrows.
Jing Yan shook his head.
