Reincarnation Alchemists
chapter 54
This pair of grandfathers and grandchildren actually dared to try to steal the opportunity to enroll in Hu Yang Academy he had obtained for his son, they were truly despicable!
Ling Han nodded. In the end, it was still a matter of actual strength. If Ling Dong Xing was at the Gushing Spring Tier, then no matter how brave Ling Zhong Kuan was, he would not dare to have any wild thoughts.
The carriage swayed slightly on the road, and after about twenty minutes, they had arrived at the main door to the Cheng Clan Residence.
The Cheng Clan was another Great Clan from Gray Cloud City, so naturally their mansion was not something that ordinary people could compare to real estate. It occupied a space of several tens of acres, the high walls of the mansion looming like a creeping giant beast.
Not only was the Ling Clan invited to the banquet tonight, as all the clans that were even slightly strong within Gray Cloud Town all accepted the invitation. Thus, the Cheng Clan had spread out a red carpet at their main entrance, with eight servants standing on either side. Every time a guest came, these servants would announce their arrival loud and clear, and of course, there would be someone coming out of the residence to receive guests.
When Ling Han and his friends got off their carriage, immediately, a servant announced loudly, “Honored guests have arrived!”
“Haha, Brother Ling, I've been waiting a long time for you!” A middle-aged man came out to accept it, raising his clasped hand towards Ling Dong Xing. His face was redder than dates, and his figure was tall and sturdy. He was the Clan Head of the Cheng Clan, Cheng Wen Kun.
“Sister Cheng!” Ling Dong Xing immediately stuck a smile on his face, raising his strung hands towards Cheng Wen Kun as a greeting.
“Come, come, come, you are the guest of honor today, I'm afraid you won't come!” Cheng Wen Kun pulled Ling Dong Xing's arm, presenting an image of hospitality and enthusiasm.
“This is Brother Cheng's banquet, how could I not give face to you?” Ling Dong Xing laughed out loud.
The two of them exchanged words, searching the entire world like a pair of old friends. Those who do not know the story will definitely not think that they are mortal enemies – one of them wants nothing more than to see the other die.
Ling Han shrugged his shoulders. He was extremely dislike of this kind of false courtesy. Thankfully, in his last life, he was an alchemy genius, so there were only people who would flatter and lick him and there was no need for him to do the same with anyone.
Cheng Wen Kun did not even glance at Ling Han, as if he did not know that this was the person who had injured his two sons, and also the culprit behind the economic war between the two clans.
“Haner, don't go too far,” Ling Dong Xing's orders.
“Yes, Dad!” Ling Han replied and followed him with Liu Yu Tong.
Under Cheng Wen Kun's guidance, they arrived very quickly at the Main Hall, where there were about a hundred banquet tables. Nowadays, there are enough people sitting. Since there was a name written on every banquet table, the incident of sitting at the wrong table would not happen so easily.
The person who had made the arrangements for the Main Hall was a very attentive person, as he had taken into consideration the fact that some guests might come with female companions. As a result, although there was room for ten people at each banquet table, there would only be around five names written on each one.
“Young Master Han!”
There were already three other people sitting at this banquet table. They all greeted Ling Han, their faces filled with respect.
They were all young people, as well as students from Grey Cloud Academy. Not long ago, they had all watched Ling Han show his invincible strength and defeat Cheng Xiang and his brother, plus they had also heard the fact that he was at the seventh layer of the Body Refining Tier. Thus, they naturally did not dare to display the slightest hint of contempt.
A sixteen year old child in the seventh layer of the Body Refining Tier. In Gray Cloud Town, this kind of individual would more than deserve the name of a genius.
Ling Han smiled in response. After all, they gave him a face, so naturally, there was no reason for him to give them a cold shoulder.
After a while, Ling Mu Yun also sat down at this table, and while he looked as if he had not seen Ling Han at all, his entire face was stiff. After a while, Cheng Xiang walked over and also sat down at this particular table.
“Ling Han, you don't look too bad!” Cheng Xiang smiled coldly at Ling Han.
Ling Han looked at him and said, “Hehe, the wound on your face seems to have recovered quickly.”
Cheng Xiang's face flushed instantly. He regarded the fact that he had been defeated by Ling Han in public as a great humiliation. Moreover, he was even forced to beg for mercy. Every time he remembered the incident, he wanted to kill himself. However, after today, he would be able to completely remove this stain in his honor and regain his pride.
“You can only have this short time to be satisfied with yourself!” He said, coldly smiling, “Later, you will kneel before me to beg my forgiveness!”
“Are you not taking your medicine? Or did you have an overdose? “Say Ling Han, smile.
Cheng Xiang did not say anything more, but the corner of his lips lifted slightly, forming a mysterious smile.
The number of guests is rapidly increasing. At first, most guests were still free to walk around. After all, this kind of banquet is also a good opportunity to get you liked by your boss and discuss business. But as more and more guests arrived, most sat in their respective seats to wait for the party to begin.
The hostile relationship of the Ling Clan with the Cheng Clan was observed by all. They were the two biggest parties in Gray Cloud Town. If the Cheng Clan decided to give up on Ling Han now, then after this, the Ling Clan would be the most dominant party in Gray Cloud Town.
As a result, there were many guests attending the banquet tonight; they were all here to witness the historic moment that might happen.
Immediately, Cheng Wen Kun stood up and waved his hand in various directions, signaling that he had something to say. Most of the guests who were whispering to each other also stopped their respective conversations, and the Main Hall became extremely silent.
