Chapter 738 Alchemy King Hall (12)

As soon as this person landed, his eyes swept over the elders before he said with a snort, "It seems that while I was away, all of you have been playing your tricks."

Everyone gave a shiver when they heard this.

After all, the person who had just landed was the Alchemy Master.

This person was Lin Fan's final trump card, though to be fair, he hadn't expected much out of this trump card.

But now it seemed like it had an even better effect than he had expected.

Before he had even left to take the exam, he had contacted the people from the twelve great factions that he was acquainted with. He had asked them to help him find the Alchemy Master and tell him what was happening in the Alchemy King Hall.

While he had only done it as a last attempt, he never expected that it would be his most effective move.

What he didn't know was that the twelve great factions that he had contacted had attached great importance to this matter because of the transaction that he had made with them earlier.

He had proven that he was someone that could breed Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts, so he was someone that they definitely had to build good relations with.

What they really wanted to do was actually lock him up and have him continuously breed pets for them, but they also knew that this wouldn't be effective. Not to mention that they weren't confident in capturing him since they knew nothing about him, including the people that were backing him.

So they chose to help him find the Alchemy Master to build a good relationship with him.

After the Alchemy Master had been found, Lin Fan had immediately contacted him to tell him about the plan, so the Alchemy Master had actually been watching the entire contest. He had just been waiting for the signal from Lin Fan to come out.

Now that he was out, naturally he would release his full aura to suppress these people who had wanted to plot behind his back.

The elders all knew that they were in a bad situation, so they immediately decided to put down their differences and work together.

The first elder was the one that came out as their representative to say, "Alchemy Master, we're not doing anything wrong here. We're just worried about the future of the Alchemy King Hall and your disciple, which is why we organized this event."

The second elder also backed him up by saying, "Alchemy Master, you know that we care the most about our little niece, which is why we were worried about her."

The sixth elder said, "Alchemy Master, you should know that our disciples are the best of the best in the Alchemy King Hall, so we were just trying to help our little niece."

The Alchemy Master looked over them again before saying with a snort, "Well, it seems to me that you were trying to seize power for yourselves. Is there anything else that you want to say?"

The elders all lowered their heads, not daring to look at the Alchemy Master.

They were acting this way because the Alchemy Master had complete control over the Alchemy King Hall. That was because unlike them, he was a genuine Legendary Alchemist and a Two Pill Line Alchemist.

With his skills, it could even be said that most orders that came to the Alchemy King Hall were for him.

Which was why they were in a situation where they jumped when he said jump and ran when he said run.

The Alchemy Master saw that no one was saying a thing, so he gave another snort before saying, "Since there's nothing else that you all want to say? Good."

He turned to the crowd and said, "I hereby declare that this contest is over."

After this, he turned to Lin Fan and asked, "What do you think about this situation?"

Lin Fan just said with a calm smile, "I think that there's no need to take the results of this contest seriously and treat it as if it never happened."

All the elders took a secret cold gasp when they heard this.

He had already won and in such an overwhelming manner. With such a public result, even if the Alchemy Master cancelled the contest, it was still very likely that Lin Fan would be named Song Shu's fiance.

That was a position that would be able to influence the entire Alchemy King Hall in the future, but he was giving it up that easily?

Even the Alchemy Master couldn't help raising a brow as he asked, "Are you sure about this?"

Lin Fan just gave a simple nod in response.

What he didn't hear was that in the distance, there was a girl who gave a sigh of regret along with a sad look when she heard this.

The Alchemy Master took a deep look at Lin Fan.

Even now, he couldn't see through Lin Fan at all.

He had planned this entire contest and even brought him back, but for what?

Still, since Lin Fan had already spoken, there was nothing else for him to say. After all, he treated his disciple like a daughter and if she didn't want to marry, she wouldn't have to marry.

No one would be able to force her to marry!

The Alchemy Master gave a nod to Lin Fan before turning to the crowd to announce, "This contest and its results will be nullified. Everyone can scatter now."

After he said this, the entire crowd quickly left since they knew that they didn't want to stay for what followed.

As for the elders, they naturally didn't dare leave now that the Alchemy Master was back.

Once the crowd had dispersed, in front of everyone's shocked gaze, there was a slender figure that ran out onto the stage and jumped at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan couldn't react at first, but when he saw who it was, he opened his arms and took her in his embrace.

The slender figure buried her head in his chest and stayed there for a full minute before lifting her head to look up at him. She asked in an excited voice, "Big brother, when did you get here? Why didn't you come and see me if you were here?"

It was naturally Song Shu, the Alchemy Master's disciple that this entire affair was about.

When Lin Fan was able to get a good look, he couldn't help being surprised by what he saw. Gone was the little girl who used to follow him around, now there was a beautiful young girl who was in his embrace.

But since he had watched her grow, he still treated her like a little sister.

Lin Fan raised a hand to pat her on the head before saying, "Well, I heard about what was happening to you, so I came to help."

Song Shu pouted her lips and said, "But that still didn't explain why you didn't come and see me."

She hadn't known about Lin Fan being at the Alchemy King Hall since over the past few days, she had been in closed cultivation. She had done this to avoid the people who had come to pester her all day during this time.

She had only come out today since Elder Fu had picked her up for this event.

She had also been unwilling to come to this event after hearing about what it was, but she had come in the end since Elder Fu had told her that there would be a surprise for her.

Now she finally understood what he had meant by this surprise.

After a long period of silence from the crowd, the first one to speak after coming back to their senses was actually young master Aotian, "Song Shu, who is this person to you?"

Song Shu looked at young master Aotian with an angry look and said, "This person? Who do you think you're talking to? This is my big brother!"

Young master Aotian looked at Lin Fan with a confused look as he couldn't understand what was happening.

Lin Fan just shook his head before saying with a bitter smile, "She's a handful, but if she's willing, I'm not going to object. Best of luck to you."

Young master Aotian was still very confused by all of this, but it didn't take him long to figure out what Lin Fan meant by this.

He looked at Lin Fan again and asked, "So you're saying that you're not involved romantically with Song Shu?"

This was a very important question to him, so he ignored everything and asked it in a very direct manner.

Lin Fan shook his head again and said, "I've already said what I've said, there's no need for me to say anything else."

All the elders suddenly revealed looks of understanding when they heard these words from Lin Fan.

It turned out that Lin Fan was acquainted with the Alchemy Master's disciple…Then this entire contest should have been a plot that he devised…

They had all completely underestimated him earlier, but now they couldn't help looking at him with complicated looks.

Perhaps that Pill Line Pill really wasn't just luck…

After all, he was someone that even the talented Alchemy Master's disciple recognized as a big brother.

As for young master Aotian, his face filled with joy as he immediately ran forward and grabbed Lin Fan's foot as he said, "Big brother, please accept my proposal to Song Shu!"

Lin Fan just shook his head with a bitter smile when he saw this.
