Chapter 24 - 24 Conflict in the Alchemists Guild (1/2)
As soon as Shun Long entered the 'Alchemists' Guild' his nose was assaulted by the fragrance of freshly made pills. His body slightly twitched and his pores opened as if they were trying to breathe the medicinal essence in the air.
A young girl around 18 years old approached Shun Long, her aura was at the early rank 8 of qi circulation. Her face wasn't that pretty but her big b.o.o.b.s and curvy buttocks made every young man who saw her feel a heat on his crotch. Her yellow robes were tightly wrapped around her body, accentuating her curves even further.
As she bowed at Shun Long her cleavage was partly exposed which made Shun Long's body to start heating up as she said
''Welcome junior brother, do you need a cauldron or medicinal ingredients? My name is Jing Fei and I am here to help you. Our 'Alchemists' Guild' has everything you will need.''
In every important building, there were some cultivators responsible for receiving and guiding guests, and obviously this girl was one of them.
Shun Long then said
''I'm here to take the rank 1 alchemist examination.''
When he finished his sentence the woman's expression changed into one of disdain as she said with a mocking look on her face
''Hey kid, do you know how many people take the rank 1 examination every day? More than 300 people. From those 300 people, less than 1 percent pass. Have you ever studied alchemy before? Ahh, I can't be bothered with you just scram to the reception over there if you want to apply for the examination.''
Her tone had changed all of a sudden from the friendly senior sister to an annoyed shrew as if Shun Long was wasting part of her precious time.
Shun Long said in an annoyed tone
''It's your job to guide guests and yet you are this rude and irritable. Your face is unpleasing to the eye, to say the least, and your only redeeming quality is your body. Then again I'm sure that I entered the 'Alchemists' Guild' not a brothel so I'm not exactly sure what you are doing here showing your b.o.o.b.s to your guests.
Sadly I don't sleep with s.l.u.ts, who knows how many people have already used you down there. I wouldn't touch your filthy body even if you begged me.''
Then without taking a second look at this annoying woman who had already ruined his mood, Shun Long walked towards the reception to register himself.
Just then the woman behind him screamed as she said
''Wait. You are not allowed to take part in the examination anymore.''
Shun Long's eyebrows were raised as he looked at her and his gaze suddenly turned cold and piercing as he was about to speak but an authoritative voice was heard from behind him that said
''If she said you are not allowed to take the exam then you won't take the exam. Scram out of the Guild.''
An obese man around his fifties with a belly so big that he resembled a rugby ball appeared behind Shun Long and Jing Fei. His clothes were white, exclusive only to alchemists inside the sect. The man wasn't exactly short, but because of how big his belly was, he truly resembled a rugby ball.
''Alchemist Bu'' the woman exclaimed in an overjoyed tone as she rushed towards the man and linked her arms with his.
Then she looked at Shun Long as she said in an impatient tone
''Didn't you hear Alchemist Bu? He told you to scram kid!''
