Chapter 469: Hostage

Once he figured this out, what on earth was there for Xiao Fan to be afraid of?

"Many thanks for your high regard, City Lord. This Disciple will certainly not fail your expectations." Xiao Fan cupped his hands and bowed again. Then, he very politely cupped his hands to Jiang Rushuang and Pill Master Lu Yongzhen, bowing to each of them in turn…

Then, he cupped his hands and bowed to Ling Luo, who was suspended in mid-air. He was very respectful, and his etiquette was impeccable. Only then did he bow to Kong Ping.

After all, they were his own people; the order didn't really matter.

The group nodded slightly, their gazes filled with satisfaction as they looked at Xiao Fan. Even Ling Luo was becoming increasingly satisfied as he looked at Xiao Fan now…

The Sacred Pill Tower believed he was someone with the potential to become a Grade 6 Alchemist in the future.

A true Prodigy of the Alchemy Lineage.

"Grade 6 Alchemist… Did I hear that right?"

"You didn't hear wrong, I heard it too; it is indeed a Grade 6 Alchemist…"

"The legendary Grade 6 Alchemist?!"

"…"

After a moment of silence, the crowd instantly erupted. After all, in Wuhuang Province, a Grade 6 Alchemist was a being that only existed in legends.

And now, they were actually saying that Xiao Fan had the potential to reach the level of a Grade 6 Alchemist in the future.

At this moment, there was no need for anyone to compare anything; he was undoubtedly the most outstanding Prodigy and Genius in the history of the Wuhuang Province Alchemy Lineage.

Even 4th-Grade Alchemist Jiang Yi believed at this moment that her own talent was inferior to Xiao Fan's!

Lu Yueshan's face turned livid… She couldn't help but take two steps back, her face full of disbelief.

"So, obtaining the xuanhuang pill furnace implies this as well…" Her mind was dazed, and her head was completely blank…

This matter was a secret for Shengdan City; only those who reached the level of 5th-Grade Alchemist could be told.

The Jixian Sect Disciples were so shocked their jaws were about to hit the floor…

Xiao Fan actually had the potential to become a Grade 6 Alchemist…

After the shock, Jiang Yushan's face was filled with an excited smile, feeling that when his name was recorded in history in the future, it would definitely include him, Jiang Yushan!

Long Caiwei stopped making a scene and stood there foolishly…

As Kong Ping's medicine attendant, she now understood quite a bit about Alchemy, so she naturally knew what a Grade 6 Alchemist represented…

Her brother-in-law actually had the potential to become a Grade 6 Alchemist.

She couldn't describe the feeling in her heart…

"Very good. Work hard in the future; the future of the Alchemy Lineage depends on you." Huangfu Cheng praised, his face full of benevolence.

"Many thanks, City Lord." Xiao Fan cupped his hands…

Huangfu Cheng nodded slightly, as did everyone else…

"Um…"

At this moment, Xiao Fan looked a bit awkward and spoke up: "Is it enough for me to use this Pill Furnace as a wager?"

Huangfu Cheng: "…"

Everyone: "…"

Inside the arena, everyone who heard Xiao Fan's words was speechless…

They couldn't describe how they felt; they had just said he could become a Grade 6 Alchemist, and yet he…

actually asked if this Pill Furnace was enough for a wager. How could the proof of a Grade 6 Alchemist not be enough?

"Of course it is enough. Calling this Pill Furnace a priceless treasure is not an exaggeration." Huangfu Cheng gave his answer, his voice loud.

Ling Luo didn't refute him either. The value of this Pill Furnace was not just enough; it was far, far more than that…

His beloved Disciple… was really not as valuable as this Pill Furnace…

"That's good, that's good. Many thanks, Senior." Xiao Fan cupped his hands in a bow, then he looked at Lu Yueshan: "The value of my Pill Furnace is sufficient. Are you satisfied?"

If it were before, Xiao Fan definitely wouldn't have paid any attention to Lu Yueshan…

But Kong Ping had said to win Lu Yueshan over, and then make the Piaomiao Immortal Palace pay money to redeem her.

Xiao Fan felt he could make a profit.

In the few days he had been in Shengdan City, he had spent millions of Spirit Stones…

He had no source of income now, so how could he not find a way to support himself?

Although he wasn't interested in Spirit Stones, the more the better. What if there was a time he needed them?

"I, I!" Lu Yueshan's chest heaved with anger; she didn't expect this guy to take the initiative to provoke her.

"I accept the challenge!"

Even after hearing Huangfu Cheng's words just now, Lu Yueshan still didn't believe she would be inferior to Xiao Fan.

In the Sacred Pill Tower, Xiao Fan did nothing but close his eyes to rest…

She didn't believe she would lose to him!!

Little did she know, this prejudice of hers had misled her…

"Good!" Xiao Fan was overjoyed, looking Lu Yueshan up and down, his eyes gleaming…

This beautiful woman was about to become his hostage…

Being scanned by Xiao Fan's greedy gaze, Lu Yueshan felt increasingly disgusted; she felt that Xiao Fan wanted to defile her!

In fact, in the arena, probably everyone thought the same, believing that Xiao Fan was coveting her beauty and wanted to possess Lu Yueshan.

Even Long Caiwei was so angry she was grinding her teeth…

Except for one person. Ji Bofeng…

He had dealt with Xiao Fan for so long and knew him very well.

The latter could be said to have absolutely no interest in women…

"This guy is definitely planning to use Lu Yueshan as a hostage…" Ji Bofeng thought to himself, feeling his idea was very reliable.

In fact, he had guessed correctly; that was indeed Xiao Fan's intention…

And so, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Fan and Lu Yueshan stood facing each other and began the competition!

Huangfu Cheng and the others left, and the huge black tower stood calmly there, no longer emitting any pressure…

However, a black void appeared above the black tower, secretly watching the movements outside…

Everyone around narrowed their eyes and looked into the arena, anticipating a spectacular competition.

Two prodigies of the Wuhuang Province Alchemy Lineage… Who would ultimately win?
