Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 541: Chapter 230: One Move!_1

“You sure are in a fiery mood today!”

In a quiet cabin aboard the flying boat, Wang Yuan, sitting on a box, chuckled at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen glanced at the box beneath his bottom, letting out a cold humph.

“It’s not that I am short-tempered; it’s that some people have no shame.”

Wang Yuan shook his head, “What a pity about that Sky Hawk Flying Boat. Even if it was close to being scrapped, if we took apart some material, we could have sold it for a thousand or eight hundred Spirit Stones.”

“Money can’t buy my happiness!”

“Are you truly pleased?”

Luo Chen shelved his air of indignation, a slight smile on his lips.

Indeed, Wang Yuan, who knew him best, could discern something different.

He said nonchalantly, “Below Danxia Peak, there are the properties of the Divine Craft Clan. If we manage to settle in, those things will definitely be confiscated by me.”

“A conflict with the Divine Craft Clan is inevitable; it’s just a matter of sooner or later.”

“If they were able to have ownership over a space in the Mooring Yard, surely they have some connection with the administration of Tian Lan Immortal City.”

“Today’s incident is merely giving the Divine Craft Clan a taste of their own medicine!”

The one who broke the rules was Divine Craft Clan’s Lu Rong. Still, after Luo Chen “angrily” smashed the large flying boat with a palm, this affair would undoubtedly spread. It would then be perceived as Tian Lan Immortal City’s poor management at the Mooring Yard.

Surely, Tian Lan Immortal City would not bear such a “stigma.”

Thus, Lu Rong would be severely punished.

Even if not severely, there will be a stern reprimand.

It is through such minor details that relationships gradually wane.

Wang Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodding in comprehension.

Indeed, this was the Luo Chen he was familiar with.

The early bird catches the worm, yet, tactical arrangements are made beforehand.

“How is your injury?”

Despite the sudden concern, Wang Yuan appeared at ease.

“It’s just some external injuries. I bought some Spirit Medicine in Tian Lan Immortal City, and they healed long ago.”

Luo Chen sighed in relief.

“That’s good then. That would be the best.”

“There might be clashes today. Ideally, it would be best not to expend any favor from Li Yixian and Nangong Jin.”

“At that time, perhaps, you would need to act.”

Wang Yuan raised his eyebrows, “Shall I use lethal force?”

“That’s up to you!” Luo Chen narrowed his eyes, his long lashes hiding dangerous hostility, “Today, we must establish our authority!”

…

In the daytime, it was bustling in the area of Danxia Peak.

Not as crowded as a large marketplace, yet the traffic of people was like a shuttle weaving through the loom.

Flashes of teleportation light—some from the mountains, others from the valleys—were constantly coming and going.

Until a massive flying boat hovered slowly outside of Danxia Peak, breaking the previously lively atmosphere.

At first, its arrival didn’t attract much attention.

Most people only perceived it as a temporary stop during a journey.

However, the colossal flying boat hovered there for the amount of time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, creating an oppressive aura as if a storm was brewing.

Everyone began to sense that things were amiss.

Eyes from all directions converged on this scene.

They noticed figures with aggressive auras and chilling killing intent—Qi Refinement Cultivators—coming to the edge of the boat, each wielding a Magic Tool.

Each exuded tremendous Spirit Power fluctuations which suggested a looming attack on Danxia Peak.

Under the gaze of many, a beam of golden light suddenly unfolded.

Swish!

It was a scroll-like covenant.

[Mountain Sea Calendar 3415, the first day of the ninth month. Luo Tian Creed has leased Danxia Peak for a period of ten years…From the Binglan Palace of Tian Lan Immortal City.]

[Covenant Maker: Luo Chen]

[Covenant Confirmer: Shi Boying]

The covenant was illusory, rippling like water waves in the sky.

The ancient writing on it recounted a reality.

Danxia Peak had been leased!

From hereon, this place was no longer unclaimed!

The rogue cultivators of Danxia Peak were either startled, skeptical, dumbfounded, or communicating with trusted companions.

A grand voice echoed faintly in everyone’s ears.

“The Luo Tian Creed will reside here from today.”

“You all have the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to tidy up and immediately depart.”

“After the time of an incense stick burning, those who remain will be killed without mercy!”

Upon finishing his words, all was silent again.

However, uproar broke out on Danxia Peak.

“They want us to leave?”

“You must be joking, I’ve lived here for seven years, this is my home, I won’t leave!”

“This Luo Tian Creed, they don’t bode well!”

“Of course the good ones won’t come, didn’t you see those wicked-looking men wielding magic tools?”

“I’ve never heard of this faction before, where did they come from?”

“I don’t know, but surely being able to lease for ten years at once, the rent they paid is unimaginably high. This is a rising dragon!”

“What shall we do?”

“What else can we do? We’ve been squatting here for over a decade, you didn’t think this was your place, did you? Just pack up and run!”

A streak of teleportation light shot forth from the hillside.

Without a Storage Bag, a large red wooden tub filled with all sorts of items was the only possession.

Witnessing this scene, others started getting restless.

Those with decisive temperament also began to pack their belongings.

Yet, some rogue-like people acted like they planned to stay no matter what.

“Let him come, kill without mercy, how audacious. My cousin is a steward of the Dao Debate Platform, dare he kill me?”

“Should we, wait and see?”

“My suggestion is to tidy up first, stay outside the mountain, and watch.”

“You mean?”

“Right, at the top of the mountain, there are still three Foundation Establishment seniors. If they’re treated like dogs and driven away, would they not get angry?”

“Right, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators! This Luo Tian Creed, how dare they be so audacious!”

Whew! Whew! Whew…

Streaks of teleportation light of various colours flew out from Danxia Peak.

However, these people did not go far but stayed in the Purple Lan Bamboo Forest at the bottom of the mountain, looking up at the sky.
