Seeing the oncoming young man, the guard quickly stopped and stood aside to salute and give way.

"I've met the young master."

Chen Guan nodded slightly, opened the middle door wide, and walked past him absentmindedly.

But when he reached the corner and was almost gone, the other party still made no other move and continued to wander around there.

Did I guess wrong?

Chen Guan couldn't help but be suspicious. After thinking about it, he felt that the probability of him being an assassin sent by the Izumo Empire was really low.

Before today, he had not entered the public eye. Even within the palace, not everyone knew him.

You can't just kill the Ninth Prince and then receive the news and the killer is already in place. If the Izumo Empire had this ability, it would have unified the northwest region long ago.

"What are you doing?"

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Chen Guan came back and asked directly.

A look of embarrassment flashed across the guard's face, as if he was confused, "Back to the young master, this subordinate was punished here by Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Yao Yue? Why did she punish you?"

What kind of weird punishment is this?

"It's the little princess. A quarter of an hour ago, the eldest princess's coming-of-age ceremony ended. The little princess didn't know who had provoked her, so she came back very angry. The subordinates who were guarding the door came up to greet me. The little princess took the first step toward me with her left foot. Very dissatisfied, he made his subordinates walk back and forth two hundred times in front of the princess's palace."

Chen Guan:.

Okay, it's really a misunderstanding, you clever little girl.

"I understand, where is she now?"

The guard looked embarrassed.

"Just say it, I guarantee she won't care."

"Her Royal Highness the Princess said that I must not tell the young master that she went to the Alchemist Guild, let alone tell the young master that she likes gifts."

"." Chen Guan was speechless.

"Okay, I understand, go back and stop wandering around."

In response, Chen Guan changed direction and walked out of the palace.

The guard hesitated for a long time, but still didn't dare to listen to him, and still completed the punishment of the little princess honestly. He had been guarding the gate for seven years in a row, and he still thought about being promoted one day, but he couldn't stay here just for cheating and cheating. It left a bad impression on the little princess.

The Holy City and the Royal Palace are like two worlds inside and outside the walls.

Knowing that today is the coming-of-age ceremony for the eldest princess Yaoye, the hottest topic on the street is seeing who is attending, taking stock of each and every big shot.

"I saw from a distance in the morning that Yun Yun, the leader of the Yun Lan Sect, came in person with the great elder. The temperament of the leader Yun was much better than the strong black-faced man I had seen before. He was as graceful and noble as a goddess. In this world, the royal family really has face this time."

"What a strong man with a black face? That's Mr. Nalan. But speaking of which, I haven't seen the old man of the Nalan family for a long time. Even today's eldest princess's coming-of-age ceremony was attended by the head of the family, Nalan Su."

"The head of the Mittel family was also present in person."

"It is said that there seem to be people from other empires coming to participate."

Each melon-eating crowd happily shared their own gossip, and the bustle and bustle were the eternal tone of the Holy City.

The young man passed by without interrupting or commenting, nor did he scold anyone who heard bragging.

The Alchemist Guild is located on the south side of the Holy City. It occupies a small area, far smaller than the three major families, and its buildings are relatively low-key.

However, the temperament of the people passing by was completely opposite to this. Most of them held their heads high and wished they could wear the badges on their chests on their heads. They raised their chins higher than anyone else and could not hide the arrogance on their faces.

Just because they are all alchemists!

There is no need to elaborate on the status of alchemists. Their noble and somewhat deformed status gives them extreme self-confidence.

To be honest, I really deserve a beating.

Many people complained in their hearts, but no one actually dared to take action.

As a guild that has gathered most of the alchemists in the empire, it is definitely a behemoth. Not to mention the three major families, even the royal family and the Yunlan Sect are not willing to offend them easily.

This is the first time that Chen Guan has come here. All he can say is that his reputation for arrogance is well-deserved, even more so. Even the guards at the door seem to be infected with this habit, and they have a hint of arrogance towards the visiting non-alchemist.

Chen Guan was not interested in looking at their faces, so he took out a xun and blew it a few times. In less than half a minute, he saw a half-sized girl running down with a happy face. After seeing the young man, he quickly calmed down and tried his best. Pretend to be indifferent.

"Chu Yuxun, what are you doing here?"

"I've told you so many times, don't call me Chu Yuxun!" Chen Guan's head was covered with black lines and he looked like he was collapsed.

Since the first meeting that year, this little girl has called him this every time. After knowing his relationship with Yao Ye and his real name, not only did she not restrain herself, but she even shouted more happily.

Seeing Chen Guan deflated, Yaoyue raised the corners of her mouth proudly, and the resentment in her heart disappeared a lot.

I thought I had pulled it back, but little did I know that Chen Guan had already seen her performance clearly, and I, who was supposed to be cooperating with you in the performance, just turned a blind eye.

Little kid, it’s easy to handle!

"Is your teacher here? I'm going to visit."

"Are you here specifically to visit the teacher?"

"Of course not, I'm looking for you the most. I just wanted to drop by." Seeing that the little girl was about to glare, Chen Guanzhang spoke up.

Only then was Yaoyue satisfied, and she led the way with her little hands behind her back, jumping up and down.

"Seeing that you are so sincere, I will reluctantly introduce you to you, not for any gift."

Chen Guan followed up with a smile, "No need to stress over and over again, your gift is indispensable. I will give it to you after you finish your homework."

With Yaoyue leading the way, it will naturally be smooth.

Even when going up to the second floor, several alchemists who looked like stewards only took one more look without stopping her. This shows that this little girl's status in the Alchemist Guild is still very special.

The little princess of the royal family and the apprentice of President Fama, there are really few who can compare with her in the Jiama Empire.

"Teacher, his name is Chu Chenguan. He is a good friend of my sister. He came to pick me up and also came to visit the teacher."

Entering an alchemy room together, Yaoyue behaved quite well and took the initiative to introduce them.

'Yes, he is my sister's good friend, not mine. I haven't forgiven him yet'.

In addition, she did not approve of the sibling relationship between Chen Guan and Yao Ye. If she did, wouldn't it mean that she would change her name to brother?

In contrast, she was more accustomed to calling her Chu Yuxun and keeping separate opinions with her sister.

"Chen Guan, I have met President Fama."

"Well, we met in the palace before. You surprised us old guys. You are an outstanding young man. Please sit next to me for a while. I will tell Yue'er about today's homework. Let's talk again. Let’s have a nice chat.”

The weight praised, it was not a lie, the content to be taught today was not profound, and Chen Guan was allowed to observe.

"my pleasure."

In the slightly dim alchemy room, the elder patiently taught the girl how to make alchemy. A handsome young man sat beside him, listening seriously and attentively, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At the same time, in the secret room in the back mountain of Yunlan Sect, two people were talking in the dark secret room.

However, the sound that came out did not sound like the sound that a carbon-based creature should make.

"Jie Jie Jie!"
