They did not make Long Chen show his pills, because that was an alchemist’s secret. Such information could not be shown to other people in an indiscriminate manner. This was a taboo topic for alchemists, just like how it was taboo for people to flaunt their wealth.
“I will check on the results in ten days’ time. Don’t disappoint me. My daughter’s life is in your hands,” reminded Bai Lan after asking a few more questions.
Long Chen nodded and said that he would complete the task well.
“Xue’er, arrange for Long Chen to stay in Yan’er’s courtyard. See that his needs are met,” instructed Bai Lan.
“What? How could an unmarried woman stay with a man? What if this guy ...”
“Enough! Go make arrangements!” scolded Bai Lan, furrowing his brows.
“Oh ...” Suxue nodded sadly. She had been scolded twice in a row by her father, so there were already tears in her eyes. This was all because of that jerk Long Chen! That was why she glared at him like she could not wait to squash him to death.
Long Chen thought it was funny to see this spoiled girl get scolded, and it vented his anger. However, he did not hate her. She was merely concerned for Suyan’s safety. It was rare to see sisterhood like that in major factions. Many siblings fought each other for their elders’ attention.
Afterwards, Long Chen and the others left the hall. After the trio left, Lei Ji and Bai Lan’s faces darkened completely.
“Brother Bai, do you think those people really exist? Do you think they’re the ones who did this to Yan’er?” asked Lei Ji darkly.
“The only ones who can inflict Yan’er with such a terrifying secret technique must be at the Heavenly Martial Realm or above. There are six Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators, and there aren’t even that many Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators in the Nine Clans or the Five Martial Alliance. They’re clearly not just at the First Heavenly Martial Stage either. The waters of the Ancient Graveyard are much deeper than we imagined ...” Bai Lan furrowed his brows.
“What do we do?” asked Lei Ji.
“Since we have come here, then we must follow the rules of the game. However, I’m guessing that the fight over the Five Emperors’ treasure will not be easy. I think it will be very violent. And if it is being controlled by someone from the Royal Territories behind the scenes, then it will be even more terrifying. Fighting for treasure is a small matter compared to staying alive. Now that we, the Demon and the Thunder clans, know about their existence, then we must prioritize our safety. Some things are not ours to take; we must not force it,” said Bai Lan, gazing far away.
“People from the Royal Territories? In their eyes, we are just ants meant to be toyed with. Outstanding ants are too eye-catching and easy to kill. Brother Bai, I’ll listen to your advice. It’s best we be more careful,” said Lei Ji with a nod.

When Long Chen walked with the two beautiful princesses, they attracted a lot of attention. The little princess, Suyan, stuck by his side, asking him many questions. Many people looked at them with jealousy and admiration, as the two princesses were goddesses to the youths of the Thunder and Demon clans. They all often worked hard so that the pair of goddesses would take one look at them, and they often fantasized about marrying the princesses to become the successful son-in-laws of the Demon clan’s leader. They would be powerful with two princesses by their side, ruling the world ...
Of course, that was just a dream. This was a pair of aristocratic and talented sisters. If a normal person could get one of them, that was probably from the karma accumulated across three lifetimes. Getting two was probably unattainable even after accumulating karma across a hundred lifetimes.
“Who is that guy? Why does Princess Yan’er seem so interested in him? Even the older princess is walking with him!”
“Aren’t they also walking towards the princesses' quarters? Good heavens! Even Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivators have no right to go there. Why does this guy get to go?”
“This guy has a foreign aura and is only at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage. He’s not one of us, nor is he one of our brothers from the Thunder clan. Why would he be here?!”
“Aiya! He’s so close with Princess Yan’er too! I feel like I’ve been stabbed by a thousand knives.”
Long Chen did not hear what they had said. Under Suyan’s request, Long Chen now addressed her as ‘Yan’er.’
Suxue was walking in front, but she was unhappy when she saw them chatting happily and said, “Yan’er, come walk with me. Don’t talk to him.”
“Oh ...” Suyan stuck out her tongue obediently, then went to Suxue’s side in a resigned manner. While she walked with her sister, she occasionally turned around to shoot Long Chen a mischievous look.
“Yan’er, I’ll be cultivating in the quarters next to yours. If he suddenly bullies you, just shout for me. I will rush over and kill him instantly,” whispered Suxue in Suyan’s ear.
“Big Sister, don’t say that. Big Brother isn’t that kind of person ...” Suyan giggled.
“You must listen to me!” Suxue raised her voice.
“Alright ...” Suyan looked at her older sister pitifully, then said, “Plus, I’m at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage, you know. How could he bully me? I’d be the one doing the bullying”
Suxue thought for a while and realized that made sense. With the gap in their cultivation levels, even if Long Chen had perverted desires, he would not be able to act on them. After that, she felt more assured. The trio returned to the princesses’ quarters under the jealous gazes of the public. Although it was just their quarters, they were actually two beautiful courtyards with many rooms. Suxue arranged for Long Chen to stay in Suyan’s courtyard, though in a room that was very far from Suyan’s.
