“Don’t address me as Elder, just big brother will do. Although my cultivation level is at a higher level than yours, when it comes to alchemy, you are my senior. I’m older than you, so in the future, just addressing me as big brother will do.”
Guo Shan patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder forcefully.
“Big brother Guo.”
Jiang Chen did it like Guo Shan had told him. He could tell that Guo Shan was a man with a true nature, and he would never limit himself to an old pattern. Jiang Chen liked this kind of personality. Besides, being able to become brother of the Black Sect’s best alchemist wouldn’t bring Jiang Chen any harm either.
In the Black Sect, only Jiang Chen could become brother to Guo Shan.
“Brother Jiang, luckily you happened to pass by, if not, I don’t know when my questions would be answered. However, what’s puzzling me is how you can be so knowledgeable. Alchemy isn’t like anything else, we need to explore along the way in order to accumulate our knowledge. Judging by what you know, I think you’d at least need to spend more than a hundred years to reach this level of knowledge. But, you’re only 15-16 years old, this is impossible.”
Guo Shan was really amazed; he couldn’t imagine how a 15-16 year old young man could be so knowledgeable in alchemy. If he hadn’t experienced all of this by himself, he wouldn’t believe that someone like this truly existed.
“Didn’t I tell you? I’m a genius.”
Jiang Chen shrugged again.
“Damn it, a genius really can’t be judged by normal standards. Brother Jiang, I suppose you are an alchemist too. With your knowledge, if you focus all you effort onto alchemy, I’m sure you will become the greatest alchemist of the generation, with your name heard by many people from all over the world.
Guo Shan said.
“Big brother Guo, alchemy is just my hobby, I am not really too much into it. Compared to the excitement from fighting in battles, I prefer the latter.”
Jiang Chen raised his head and stared into the skies afar. Guo Shan would never understand his vision.
“Sigh… Too bad. However, with your abilities and knowledge, I’m sure you’ll become a great cultivation master, as well as an expert in pill concoction.”
Breathing out a sigh, Guo Shan said again, “I heard that you have a fight with Nan Bei Chao one year from now?”
“Yes, I do.”
Jiang Chen nodded his head.
“That Nan Bei Chao is a rare genius in the Qi Province who has received blessings from lady luck herself. His future achievements will be limitless… One year, it’s too little for you.”
Guo Shan said. The news about the one-year fight date between Jiang Chen and Nan Bei Chao had spread across the entire Qi Province, so of course Guo Shan had heard the news. Putting aside the question whether or not Jiang Chen would be able to fight Nan Bei Chao in one year, with just his bravery alone, he was far superior to anyone else.
“I have my ways, don’t worry, big brother Guo.”
