Chapter: 5343

Shi Tianzi hastily replied: "It's the cauldron used by Daoist alchemists to refine elixirs. It's roughly the size of a tangerine ball and looks like it's made of copper, with a three-legged base and an ear that points up towards heaven. There's also a cover that matches it, and the entire surface is intricately patterned with dragon designs... He says this was passed down from his ancestors and is specifically used to refine medicinal elixirs."

"Well, this thing might just be a really good elixir-refining goodie after all." Ye Chen said with a playful tone and lifted an eyebrow.

After saying that, he asked Shi Tianzi, "Does he say when he'll come?"

Shi Tianzi hastily replied, "He says he'll come at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and wait for him outside the gate with that board."

Ye Chen thought of the red-laced board at the entrance and smiled slightly as he walked out the door.

Standing before the board, Ye Chen nonchalantly ripped open the red fabric on top, revealing three golden characters: "Heavenly Master's Hall".

Ye Chen snickered and then pulled over a nearby ladder, single-handedly lifting off the Jize Temple board that was already removed, and rehung it back in place.

Shi Tianzi said nervously, "Master Ye, you shouldn't do this... If you hang up this board, the old master will surely not take kindly to this, but instead be a stubborn and unyielding opponent..."

Ye Chen smiled, "It's fine. Hanging up the board is just letting him know that things have taken a turn, and he'll definitely come to deal with it when the time comes. I'll go meet him then!"

Ye Chen knew that this time, Hong Tian Shi had come to retrieve Spring Elixir, and since he had already found Shichen Qi, whether or not he knew his own identity, Ye Chen could not let him continue staying in Jinling like this.

So, the best approach right now is to take the initiative.

However, Ye Chen also considered one thing: that Hong Tian Shi was familiar with Granny, so it's possible he had met his parents before.

If that's the case, considering the similarity in appearance between Ye Chen and his father, he might guess out his identity.

Ye Chen's plan was that if Hong Tian Shi questioned his identity, he would not hesitate to directly apprehend him.

Immediately, he told Shichen Qi, "Shi God Doctor, you and Xiao Zhao go back home first, don't bother with this, I'll be right on time tomorrow morning!"

Shichen Qi hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement, saying respectfully, "Alright, Master Ye, I'll see you tomorrow morning!"

Ye Chen lightly beckoned to Chen Xiao Zhao and called her over, whispering a few words into her ear.

Cao Xiao Zhao nodded immediately without hesitation, saying, "Alright, Master Ye, Cao will definitely take care of it!"

Ye Chen nodded, reassuringly, "Don't worry, I'll help you guys settle this no matter what, and I won't let the Jize Hall's sign be taken away!"

Immediately the next day.

Ye Chen arrived at Jize Hall around seven in the morning.

At this time, Jize Hall had already posted a notice saying it was closed for the day, and the hall's signboard was still hanging above the main gate, while the signboard of Tian Shi Tang was still placed to one side.

Shichen Qi had already changed into his long robe, looking anxious as he waited here. Seeing Ye Chen arrive, he hurried over to greet him, saying, "Master Ye has arrived!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly and asked, "Shi God Doctor, is Xiao Zhao here?" JrNovels.com
