Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

"Everyone, don't panic, I have my own ways to deal with Longevity Hall! Anyone who wants to open an Elixir Medicine Shop in the Imperial City, regardless of who they are, must pay respects to my Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion as the leader. This Longevity Hall is too arrogant, and my Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion will be the first to not tolerate it!"

Manager Pang also felt the threat.

Furthermore, having been contradicted by his own words twice in succession, if he did not demonstrate his authority now, others would surely laugh at him.

The other Elixir Store owners had been eagerly awaiting these words from Manager Pang.

"Manager Pang, with the strength of your Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion, dealing with Longevity Hall is just a matter of saying the word! If you really remove this thorn from our side, we will take turns hosting you for a meal at Purple East Tower!"

Manager He said with a sycophantic smile.

The others also chimed in with excessive flattery for Manager Pang.

"Everyone just sit here and enjoy your tea while watching a good show! Longevity Hall dares to jump around in front of my Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion, I'll slap it to death with one palm!"

Having said that, Manager Pang called over a servant and gave a few instructions.

The servant nodded and left.

All the Elixir Store owners were filled with anticipation, leisurely sipping their tea, waiting to see Manager Pang's moves.

...

Inside Longevity Hall, Li Shishi was all smiles. Today was only the third day since opening, and the business was already very good. Since the morning, Longevity Hall had sold over two hundred and forty elixirs.

They had already surpassed yesterday's performance.

The afternoon had just passed by a little over two hours, and there were still two more hours of business to be done.

Based on her experience from yesterday, as evening approached, there should be a good wave of business. Selling three hundred elixirs today was not a big pressure.

"Master truly is the reincarnation of the Eternal Life Pill Master; so young yet producing Elixirs that are in high demand even in a place like Vermilion Bird Imperial City, where powerful figures are aplenty."

Li Shishi was thoroughly impressed by Chu Feng's abilities.

Feeling extremely fortunate and content to follow such a talented master, who was also very kind to his servants.

"Ouch, ouch..." Just then, a customer entered the store.

Li Shishi looked closely, wasn't this a customer who had bought Elixirs in the shop this morning? That customer claimed to have been poisoned at the time and purchased a Detoxification Pill to take back and use.

Seeing his face filled with pain, shrouded by a dark aura, and lips that were as black as purple, these were clearly symptoms of poisoning.

Could it be that the Detoxification Pill did not work?

Li Shishi, being a girl, was very attentive. She immediately sensed something wrong. The Longevity Hall had just opened for three days, business had just started to pick up, and its reputation was gradually spreading. Everything was moving in a positive direction.

But they couldn't afford any mishaps now.

"What kind of elixirs are you all selling at Longevity Hall? My elder brother bought a Detoxification Pill here this morning, and not to mention that you sell it for five times the price of other Elixir Medicine Shops, the healing effect is terribly poor."

"Initially, my brother only had minor poisoning, with symptoms not particularly noticeable. After taking your Longevity Hall's Detoxification Pill, just look at what's become of him? Not only did it fail to detoxify, but the poison has become even more severe!"

"Call your shopkeeper out here now! Selling such harmful Poison Pills, if my brother dies from the poison, I will make sure all of Longevity Hall's people end up in prison!"

"Nobody should buy Elixirs here anymore, this place exclusively sells Fake Elixirs, harmful Poison Pills..."

A large group of people came in, looking aggressive, and started cursing at Li Shishi and the others behind the counter.

However, with the presence of the Northern Territory's Three Fierce Men, these people were just cursing and had not yet resorted to smashing the counter. The customers who were buying Elixirs inside the shop, seeing that someone had an issue after consuming Longevity Hall's Elixirs,

immediately beat a hasty retreat.

Originally, Longevity Hall was a newly opened Elixir Store. They had come here specifically after hearing from friends or relatives who had taken Longevity Hall's Elixirs and praised its good effects.

Now it seems that whether the elixirs from Longevity Hall are good or bad remains unknown.

Silver can be earned again, but if someone is fatally poisoned, everything is lost.

For all elixir shops, the most feared thing is an incident. Even the thousand-year-old Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion is extremely afraid of accidents because of the huge impact on the store's reputation.

Good news hardly travels, while bad news spreads far and wide.

If an accident does occur.

Others would say that so-and-so ate the elixir from Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion and ended up killing someone.

Just imagine, if this were to be spread, who would dare to enter Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion to buy elixirs?

"Poison Eye Dragon King, go and report to our Lord immediately! These people are coming in a fierce manner; they are probably ill-intentioned and most likely sent by some rival competitor," the Beixie National Master, with his vast experience, sensed that something was amiss.

He quickly sent Poison Eye Dragon King to fetch Chu Feng.

Meanwhile, he himself tried his utmost to control the situation. Since he was not a Pill Master, he had no idea what kind of poison was in the customer, whether it was after taking Longevity Hall's Detoxification Pill that the condition worsened?

He knew nothing about it.

And did not dare to make rash conclusions.

The best approach was to have Chu Feng come out and take charge.

The shopkeepers of the various elixir shops opposite Longevity Hall were all gloating over the excellent play arranged by Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion.

"Manager Pang, you truly deserve to be the leading figure in the Imperial City. Such a move is truly extraordinary!" Manager He said with a laugh, giving a thumbs up.

"Who said it was I who made this move? This matter has nothing to do with my Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion! You may drink tea freely, but you cannot speak carelessly!" Manager Pang smiled inscrutably, he was very cunning.

To give people something to talk about was something he would never admit to even in death.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, look at my blundering mouth! I, He, misspoke and am willing to drink three cups of tea as a self-punishment in lieu of wine!" Saying so, Manager He picked up his cup and downed it in succession. The other elixir shop owners knew the score and smiled without saying a word.

They were even more reverent towards Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion.

No wonder some of the newly opened elixir shops, despite having decent strength, would end up in trouble not long after opening. It seems that the waters of the Imperial City are very deep indeed.

Those elixir shops that closed down, aside from some that lacked the capability,

It's likely that many of them did not pay their respects to the leading figure, Pang Ancestor Alchemy Pavilion.

...

Chu Feng had just finished refining a batch of extremely difficult to produce first-grade elixirs and was in the midst of recuperating when he heard the report from Poison Eye Dragon King about an incident in the shop ahead. He immediately got up and rushed to handle it.

Upon entering the shop, the scene was nearly out of control.

In the center of the shop, a door panel was laid out with a middle-aged man lying on top. His face was covered with dark qi, his lips purplish, and he was grimacing in pain, constantly moaning. Beside him were a group of relatives, full of aggression and fury.

They were cursing loudly, overtaken by emotion.

"What happened?"

Chu Feng wore his Alchemy Master Robe, carrying an air of dignity and calm, possessing an imposing aura and the presence of a Great General.

His gaze swept across the crowd, ultimately settling on the middle-aged man on the floor.

"Who are you?" asked the young man who was jumping around most fiercely beside the middle-aged man, with a cold demand.

"I am merely a young alchemist of Longevity Hall. Hearing that someone had taken our Longevity Hall's Detoxification Pill and something went wrong, I specially came out to deal with it," Chu Feng deduced through the keen intuition of an alchemist that this most agitated young man must also be a Pill Master.
