After Lin Fan was brought back into the room, he sat down in front of all the elders and the Alchemy Master.

The Alchemy Master silently sat there looking at Lin Fan for a bit before asking, “How many can you offer us and what price can you give us?”

Lin Fan thought about it before saying, “I can give you one hundred and fifty Child Soul Realm beasts and fifteen Nascent Soul Realm beasts.” As for the price, he gave them the us

When they heard this, the Alchemy Master and the elders couldn’t help taking a cold breath when they heard this.

Putting aside the one hundred and fifty Child Soul Realm beasts, the fifteen Nascent Soul Realm beasts were what they cared about the most.

When it came to Nascent Soul Realm Experts, since the Alchemy King Hall only had around twenty elders, fifteen Nascent Soul Realm beasts would mean almost doubling the number of Nascent Soul Realm Experts that they had.

So this was a very significant matter for the Alchemy King Hall.

Of course, they no longer doubted Lin Fan since he had already brought out the beasts as proof. Since that was the case, all that mattered now was actually signing the deal, but it was hard to contain their excitement and anxiety.

It was only the Alchemy Master who was able to remain calm.

He looked at Lin Fan for a bit as if he was in deep thought before suddenly asking, “Who else are you offering these beasts to?”

The elders had been in an excited state, but when the Alchemy Master said this, it was like there was a bucket of cold water that suddenly fell onto them. However, one of them couldn’t help saying, “Alchemy Master, isn’t this question a bit too much…?”

But it was clear by the way that his voice drifted off that he also wanted the answer to this question.

After all, this was a very important matter.

The reason they wanted these beasts was to gain power over the other twelve great factions, but if Lin Fan was also selling these beasts to the other twelve great factions, then that plan wouldn’t mean anything.

However, there was a deeper reason for why the Alchemy Master asked this.

When Lin Fan had used his connections to find the Alchemy Master, he had already shown that he was connected to the various twelve great factions. However, the Alchemy Master had noticed that there were a few that were missing from the people that he had contacted.

Since that was the case, he wanted to know what kind of relations Lin Fan had to the other twelve great factions before making a decision.

Lin Fan didn’t say anything at first as he calmly looked at the Alchemy Master, but then he said, “If you want to know which ones I’m not selling to, I can tell you.”

The Alchemy Master trembled when he heard this.

It was as he had suspected, there were a few rifts in the relationship between Lin Fan and a few of the twelve great factions. If that were the case, that would mean that there would be places for him to act.

The Alchemy Master then revealed a faint smile as he said, “I think that while there are some places that need negotiations, there is also the possibility of cooperation here.”

Lin Fan gave a nod as he also revealed a faint smile.

Over the next hour, there were many things that were discussed, but in the end, they were able to reach a deal.

However, no matter how the negotiations went, Lin Fan wouldn’t budge from his initial offer of one hundred fifty Child Soul Realm beasts and fifteen Nascent Soul Realm beasts.

The Alchemy King Hall naturally didn’t have a problem with money since they were the richest of the twelve great factions with their supply of pills. If they could, they would want to buy as many beasts as possible to increase their own power.

However, Lin Fan wouldn’t budge from his initial offer because he didn’t want to break the balance between the factions.

He had started with his highest offer already because he didn’t want to waste time, but he didn’t expect these old men to be this shameless.

Still, he had all the cards, so it wasn’t as if they were able to do anything.

By the end of it, everyone who was involved looked exhausted.

When Lin Fan came out of the meeting room, he was surprised to find all the elder disciples sprawled out over some form of seating, all with exhausted looks on their faces.

The only person who was still sitting upright was Song Shu who seemed to be talking about something.

However, when she saw Lin Fan come out, she immediately stopped talking and came to his side, grabbing his arm as she said, “Big brother, you’re finally out! Are you done with your meeting?”

Lin Fan gave a nod and then before he could say anything, Song Shu said, “Since you’re free now, let’s go on a tour of the Alchemy King Hall! I can show you all of my favourite places.”

Seeing how happy she looked, Lin Fan couldn’t say no to her, so he just let her pull him away.

But as he was being pulled away, he couldn’t help looking back at the elder disciples who all had exhausted looks on their faces and thinking to himself, “What happened here?”

What he never would have known was that these elder disciples had been completely knocked out by Song Shu’s enthusiastic speech about him.

It was so intense that it almost could have been categorized as brainwashing.

Even as they had been knocked out, all the things that Song Shu said kept ringing in their minds, as if it was slowly becoming their own thoughts. Even their dreams were about Song Shu telling them all about the great things with Lin Fan.

But it was just too bad that Lin Fan didn’t know this.

However, it wasn’t strange for Song Shu to act like this since this was just her true personality.𝒐𝒱𝐞𝑳xt.𝗇𝓔t

When she had been back on the Blue Star Planet, because of the way that she had been raised, she had always acted reserved since she learned from a young age that that was the best way to survive on the streets. But now that she was in a place where she knew that she no longer had to hold back, her real personality came out like a tidal wave, sweeping away everyone that was in her way.

…

Back in the meeting room, even if they were exhausted, the Alchemy Master and the elders hadn’t convened yet.

Even though they had reached a deal with Lin Fan, there were still other things that they had to discuss first.

Since they had been stuck in a period of infighting during the time that the Alchemy Master was away, they really hadn’t been able to get much information about the other twelve great factions and what was happening between them during this time.

Even when they sent their people to the Ancient Era Ruins, they had just randomly picked a team to send, so they hadn’t really received much news from there.

They only knew that there were a few casualties, but considering that it was the Ancient Era Ruins, this was a very normal thing. The elders had completely ignored this as they had other things to focus on and the Alchemy Master hadn’t been there.

So right now, they were in a very uncomfortable situation.

After meeting with Lin Fan, it was clear to the Alchemy Master and the elders that things were changing. If they didn’t have enough information to match this change, it was very likely that they would be caught off guard and would be left behind.

They were just grateful that Lin Fan was connected to Song Shu and that he had come to pull them back before they went too far. If it hadn’t been for this, not only would they have missed out on the sale of these beasts, they also wouldn’t have known what was happening with the other twelve great factions.

Even if they were a neutral faction, with all these factions moving, it was impossible for them to remain neutral.

After a long period of silence, the Alchemy Master revealed a serious look before turning to Elder Fu to ask, “Who did we send to the Ancient Era Ruins this time?”

Elder Fu replied, “None of the elders wanted to send their disciples, so we chose some random disciples of Master Alchemists.”

All the elders lowered their heads when they heard this since they knew that this was Elder Fu’s off handed jab at them, but then they all raised their heads and started volunteering to collect information.

The Alchemy Master just waved his hand at them when he heard this and he turned his attention back to Elder Fu as he said, “I’m sure that they were ignored when they came back, so check with them again about what happened in the Ancient Era Ruins.”

Then he turned back to the elders and said, “I need you all to start contacting the various other factions, but make sure that you aren’t caught by the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association, understood?”

The elders all gave nods with serious expressions.

After seeing this, the Alchemy Master couldn’t help giving a sigh and saying, “The times really are changing…”

But then he revealed a serious look and said to the elders, “We can’t let our Alchemy King Hall be swept away by this new era.”

All the elders once again agreed with serious expressions.
