Double Cultivation
meeting of experts
"Senior Zeng! I didn't expect to see you here! How long has it been since you left the Garden of the Divine Realm? It must have been decades since I last saw you!"
"Hmm? Patriarch Cai. Has it been a while since our last meeting? I swear it feels like we just met not too long ago."
Inside the Meeting Hall, where the seats were quickly filled with experts, two old men spoke to each other.
One of them was known as Senior Zeng, Sect Master of the Divine Realm Garden, one of the few Sects in this world that mainly focused on medicine and pills.
The old man sitting beside him was the Patriarch of the Cai Clan, who was famous for his medical expertise.
These two individuals themselves were peak experts that were rarely seen in public, let alone both at the same time, and there were many other powerful and influential people like Senior Zeng and Patriarch Cai gathered in the Meeting Hall.
Every individual in the Meeting Hall had a great influence in the world that could shake the Eastern Continent with a single command, and had so many of them gathered in one place, he said, it was truly an unprecedented sight.
"i heard that you just received a new student. Does that disciple happen to be this young lady by your side?" Patriarch Cai looked at the beautiful young girl sitting beside Senior Zeng.
"Hahaha. Indeed, this is my precious disciple. I brought him here hoping that he could learn a thing or two from the mysterious Alchemy Master who shook the world with Earth Progress Pills." Senior Zeng laughed, and he continued while looking at the young girl beside Patriarch Cai, "i saw that you also brought someone with you."
"This is my youngest daughter, Cai Zhuohua. Senior Zeng's greeting, Zhuohua."
"Junior Cai greeted Senior Zeng. This junior has wanted to meet with Senior ever since he heard of your great achievements in medicine. It's an honor to finally meet you."
"Haha. what an elegant and polite Young Miss. The Cai clan is lucky to have someone like you in their family." Senior Zeng laughed out loud.
Even though Senior Zeng acted unconsciously, it was clear why Patriarch Cai brought the young beauty to such an important meeting that did not match her background. If this mysterious Alchemy Master turned out to be truly real, it would greatly benefit the Cai Clan if the Alchemy Master worshipped someone from their family.
In fact, there were many other families in the Conferred Hall who brought their daughters with them to the meeting, all of them were hoping to establish a relationship with the Alchemy Master whose name already rivaled most of the top families in the Eastern Continent.
"Look over there. It was Matriarch Fang of the Four Great Families."
The people there quickly realized Fang Xianjue's great presence.
"Of course, one of the Four Great Families will be here. I wouldn't be surprised even if the other three also decided to show up."
And as many expected, the other three Great Families appeared in the Meeting Hall a moment later.
The Long Family that governs the Eastern Region, the Xiang Family that rules the Southern Region, the Fang Family that dominates the Western Region, and the Su Family from the Northern Region the fourth – Great Family gathers in public. It was an extremely rare sight even for most of the influential people in this Meeting Hall who were used to seeing such an unusual event.
As for the number of people from this family, the Long Family only brought one person their – Patriarch.
Xiang family brought two people from their family – an old woman and a young woman.
Meanwhile, like the Long Family, only Su Xun from the Su Family appeared.
However, despite having the same title of 'Great Family', none of these families were truly friendly with each other. In fact, they hate each other and will fight each other for the smallest thing.
Some time later, another famous family that made a fuss appeared in the Convention Hall. However, this family was not always that popular, as their fame only skyrocketed after the Regional Tournament due to one person.
"Look! The Hong Family! And they even brought along Hong Yu'er!"
The people there were surprised by Hong Yu's unexpected appearance.
Very quickly after Hong Yu's appearance, people gathered around him, hoping to get help or just to make some connections.
However, Hong Yu'er did not even glance at them and sat down beside Su Xun.
"Hello, father-in-law." Hong Yu'er greeted Su Xun, which left him dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, his father, Hong Chengchou, had to apologize to the experts and seniors instead.
"i'm sorry for my daughter's misbehavior right now. She was not used to strangers ..." Hong Chengchou bowed to them.
"Hahaha.don't worry about that. A genius like him should at least be arrogant." The experts laughed at him, as they did not dare to complain in front of Hong Yu'er's presence.
"What are you doing here, Hong Yu'er? Are you interested in pills or Alchemy Masters?" Su Xun asked him with raised eyebrows.
Hong Yu'er smiled and said, "You don't need to worry, father-in-law. Even if he is the most talented Alchemy Master in this world, I only pay attention to Su Yang."
"I'm sorry, but it wasn't my intention to question your loyalty to my son .." Su Xun quickly shook his head.
A moment later, a loud voice echoed in that place.
"Your Majesty, Lord Xie, has arrived!"
The people in the Meeting Hall immediately stood up and bowed to Lord Xie, who had just entered the room.
"sit." Lord Xie waved his hand before sitting on his personal seat.
As soon as Lord Xie and all the expected guests had arrived, Wang Shuren appeared with a bright smile on his face.
