Chapter 1951: Dynamics Of All Parties

“When is the grand opening again?” Patriarch Yang asked.

“Heavenly Pill Tower? I think it’s in three days, the grand opening will be in three days.” She replied, and then added: “Father, do you think we should prepare a gift for their grand opening? What gift should we prepare if we do? There are so few people in the West City, maybe we should hire a lion dance troupe to congratulate them?”

Patriarch Yang touched his chin and said: “Well, I guess they bought the building from us after all. If the day of their grand opening is too quiet, it won’t reflect well on us either. Tell you what! When the time comes, you will go and take a look and see what they’re selling, then buy a few bottles of their pills to patronize their business!”

“Father, you will come with me!” Yang Xiao Er hugged his arm affectionately and said: “I will pick a few bottles of pills and Father, you will pay for them, how about that?”

Upon hearing that, Patriarch Yang patted her head in annoyance: “Child, how long have you known them? You’re so close to them already? Don’t forget whose daughter you are.”

“Of course I won’t forget it! I am Father’s most beloved daughter!” She replied with a smile and shook his arm: “Father, Father, you must come with me!”

“Alright, alright, we will see when the time comes!” Patriarch Yang said: “I’ve got some things to deal with, go and play by yourself.” Having said that, he left.

Nalan Mansion, in the main hall.

Patriarch Nalan glanced at his eldest son who was sitting down and sipping tea. He asked: “Are you going to the Ghost Doctor’s grand opening of the Heavenly Pill Tower?”

“No.” Nalan Mo Chen replied. He took a sip of tea and played with the teacup in his hand.

Nalan Ziyan who was sitting at the side glanced at his father, then at his elder brother and said: “Father, Elder Brother, I heard that many people have been eyeing up Heavenly Pill Tower, not only because they’ve bought the land from Patriarch Yang, they’ve also bought the land around Greenwaves Lake too. Arrays have been set up around the area of Greenwaves Lake and it’s no longer possible to enter the area. You can no longer see the scenery of Greenwaves Lake from other places now.”

“What’s so strange about that? They made such a big move, of course the people in the city will notice. In my opinion, those people don’t know anything about their origins and have already made plans to make a move against them.”

Patriarch Nalan spoke slowly and glanced at his eldest son. After he lifted his teacup and took a sip of his tea, he said: “There are many powerful families in Hundred Rivers City, and although they are not always in agreement, they will unanimously unite against foreign forces. In such a place as this, only if you possess real strength and foundation can you be accepted by the forces in the city, otherwise, you will be plagued by constant troubles.”

After hearing this, Nalan Ziyan asked his father: “Father, didn’t you say that Heavenly Pill Tower has the strength to stand firm here?”

Patriarch Nalan coughed lightly when he heard his son’s question. He looked at his eldest son who had been silent the whole time, he was a little annoyed: “Mo Chen, have you not got anything to say?”

“What’s there to say?” Mo Chen raised his eyes and returned his gaze. There was a gentle smile on his face: “Father, aren’t you discussing this with Ziyan? What else is there for me to say?”

“Isn’t the Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu your friend? Although she said she didn’t need help from our Nalan Family, does she really mean it? Do you know the importance of having a good relationship with a top alchemist?”
