Chapter 9 - The Clan Chief Competition

Chapter 9 - The Clan Chief Competition

Today, Shen Xiang did not immediately go to ripen the elixir. He went to a huge square in the middle of the Shen Family Villa early in the morning, because today was the day when the patriarch position was finalized, and the Shen Family had been without a patriarch for more than three months, resulting in some chaos in the Shen Family.

On a huge square paved with stone bricks in the middle of the Shen Family Villa, stood the important sons and daughters of the entire Shen Family, numbering about three hundred, all of whom were the elite sons and daughters of the Shen Family.

The Shen family crowd was gathered around the square, with a large area empty in the middle, where five middle-aged men stood, one of which was Shen Tianhu.

Shen Xiang also gathered in the crowd, watching the action, if necessary, he has to go out to help his father fight for the patriarch's position.

A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and somewhat gray hair said with a cold smile on his face, "Shen Tianhu, do you know that there is a very important condition to be the head of the Shen family."

This middle-aged man named Shen Haohai, is a relatively strong branch commander of the Shen family, older than Shen Tianhu, strength is the seventh level of the Mortal Martial Realm. This strength is not bad in the Shen family, so he thinks he is qualified to be the head of the Shen family. In terms of seniority, Shen Xiang still needs to call him uncle.

Shen Tianhu glared at Shen Haohai with anger in his eyes and said coldly, "Of course I know that the patriarch's relatives should all have good potential so that the patriarch does not divert a lot of public resources to waste on his own relatives."

Shen Xiang's mother had died long ago, Shen Xiang had not seen since he understood, and Shen Tianhu's relatives were the only ones Shen Xiang had.

"Haha ... your son is a person without spirit veins, if you become the clan chief, you will surely use a lot of precious pills on him! You have been buying elixirs and elixirs everywhere over the years, isn't it to bring your son up? But his bottom is known to everyone." Shen Haohai laughed, "Everyone knows he is a waste that can never get up!"

Shen Tianhu naturally knew that his son was superb among his peers, he just wanted to keep his strength hidden and not reveal too much of his amazing strength, otherwise he would attract trouble.

"My son can release the fire of true qi! With the potential of alchemy, you dare to say he is useless? I'm afraid the Shen Family's patriarchs wouldn't think so." Shen Tianhu sneered.

At this time, the crowd was talking, the matter that the Lord of the Spiritual Dan Pavilion wanted to accept an apprentice was rejected that day had long spread throughout Wolting Tiger City. Although Shen Xiang did not have a spirit vein, he could have a chance to become an alchemist if he had the fire of true qi.

Shen Haohai coldly snorted: "But he refused that Spiritual Dan Pavilion master, without a master he can't become an alchemist."

Just then, Shen Xiang's calm and steady voice came out, "I am now able to refine a Mortal Grade Lower Grade Body Tempering Pill."

Hearing Shen Xiang's words, the crowd froze, while Shen Haohai laughed out loud: "A yellow-mouthed kid, only 16 years old and you can refine pills? Don't think that by saying a few big words you can help your father fight for the position of clan chief. Also, lying in front of the elders is a heavy punishment."

"You think you're that Pill Family genius? The Pill family is a family of pills! It has a rich heritage."

Shen Xiang walked out from the crowd, his gaze clear and calm, he took out a potion furnace, looked at that Shen Haohai with a cold smile and said, "Do you dare to bet with me? I refine a furnace quenching pills, how about you kowtow to me in public and apologize?"

Shen Haohai couldn't laugh anymore, and the crowd was frozen, they didn't expect Shen Xiang to be so arrogant and say such words!

For a junior to be so arrogant in front of himself, it made Shen Haohai furious.

For Shen Xiang's action, Shen Tianhu was supportive, he knew that the time had come for his son to raise his eyebrows.

Shen Haohai's face was filled with mighty anger and said in a deep voice, "What did you just say!" As he spoke, a wave of true qi enveloped towards Shen Xiang, but it was turned away by Shen Tianhu.

Shen Xiang stared at Shen Haohai and said in a raised voice: "I want to bet with you! If I can refine a Body Tempering Pill, you will kowtow to me in public and apologize."

Shen Xiang repeated with a serious face, not at all like a joke, and that tone was also full of arrogance, there are not many teenagers who can face their elders like that in the Shen family.

Shen Haohai was so angry that his body trembled, and when he saw Shen Xiang's serious look, he didn't dare to agree to it immediately, while some people around him were waiting for him to answer.

Shen Xiang forced to look at Shen Haohai and continued: "You slandered me as a useless waste in public, and now I want to prove myself, and at the same time make you apologize to me! As a senior, don't you dare to bet?"

Shen Haohai hated to slap Shen Xiang to death, but he did not dare to, after all, brutally killing a young son of his own clan was a very serious matter.

An old man said: "In that case, Shen Haohai, you will bet with him, but kowtowing and apologizing will be exempted, that is just a little doll's angry words. How about this, if he can refine an elixir, Shen Haohai you will be counted as losing and give him the corresponding compensation."

"I agree, if my son loses, I will no longer compete for the clan chief position!" Shen Tianhu said, and then nodded to Shen Xiang.

The crowd was once again in an uproar, Shen Tianhu actually put up such a big bet!

Shen Haohai hummed: "Just bet, if I lose, I'll give him the thousand-year blood spirit ganoderma I just got."

Thousand-year blood lingzhi! The crowd suddenly whimpered, that is a thousand-year-old blood spirit ganoderma, is very expensive Xuan level lower grade spiritual medicine

"Shen Xiang, now you start refining the pills! How long do you need approximately?" The old man asked, he was an elder of the Shen family and had a certain prestige.

According to the people's understanding, refining a Mortal Grade lower grade elixir would take at least half a day, and the fastest would take two to three hours, not to mention a sixteen year old boy.

"It will be quick, it won't take much time for everyone!" As he spoke, Shen Xiang sat down cross-legged, while that elder and Shen Haohai also came over and checked the potion furnace to prevent Shen Xiang from cheating.

"Inferior alchemy furnace, it seems that you are very poor, Shen Tianhu!" That Shen Haohai sneered, everyone knew that Shen Tianhu's money was spent on Shen Xiang.

Shen Xiang took out the materials from the storage bag, checked them, and then released the true qi fire to warm the alchemy furnace before putting the materials inside, his movements were very skillful.

And the true qi fire also let the crowd slightly surprised, although many people can through the cultivation of some martial arts in the attack to release the flame, but those flames are only in the attack to release. Normally, it can not be controlled freely like Shen Xiang, unless practicing some fire control techniques, but those techniques are very rare and difficult to practice.

The alchemy furnace has been filled with flame by Shen Xiang, at this time the alchemy furnace wafted out a trace of medicinal fragrance.

An hour passed, the crowd saw the closed eyes of Shen Xiang suddenly frown, a look at it is to the critical time, and that Shen Haohai also looked straight sweat, he was worried that he would lose the thousand-year-old blood Lingzhi.

The crowd saw the mist coming out from inside the alchemy furnace, and Shen Xiang also opened his eyes, his face showed joy, stood up and said, "Please check."

"What? It's done in an hour?" The crowd questioned one after another.

The first one to go over was that elder! Although he couldn't refine pills, he knew the process of refining pills, he had been watching Shen Xiang carefully just now and knew that Shen Xiang had a certain foundation of refining pills, although he wasn't clear about the situation inside the furnace, he could sense that the heat released from the furnace was changing, and the changes were very subtle.

Open the lid of the furnace, the crowd immediately smelled the faint fragrance of medicine, which is indeed the fragrance of medicine they are familiar with, and they were able to witness the refining process, when they saw that the elder took out five snow-white pills, they could not help but exclaim.
