Lou Qianxue took the invitation letters given by the four families, the Alchemy Union, and the Mercenary Union.

She opened the first letter from the Bai Family. “I’m not going. I don’t know them.”

The Li Family: Lou Qianxue thought of Li Wei. “Not going. We don’t get along well.”

The Su Family: Lou Qianxue frowned. “Not going. We had conflicts before.”

The An Family: This can’t be that An Family from Baiyue City, huh? Lou Qianxue slapped the invitation letter down. “Nope. I don’t like them.”

The Alchemy Union: Lou Qianxue had the memory of the Alchemy God, so she would become an alchemist in the future. She would have to go to the Alchemy Union sooner or later. However… “I’m not going. The time isn’t right yet.”

The Mercenary Union: Lou Qianxue opened their letter to take a look. “They want to groom me into becoming the future president of the Mercenary Union? I’m not going. My goals don’t align with it!”

Lou Potian looked at Lou Qianxue in shock as she denied all the invitations that he had carefully picked in the blink of an eye. He was tongue-tied. “Qianxue…”

“Grandpa, the prefecture competition is about to begin. Instead of getting involved in all of these meaningless things, I should work hard on improving myself. I have something to do, so I’ve to leave now.”

Escaping early was a good choice for Lou Qianxue.

But later in the afternoon, she was stopped again.

“Qianxue, I have nothing to say about how you rejected the others previously. But you have to follow me to a place now.”

Seeing Lou Potian’s serious expression, Lou Qianxue felt confused. “Where?”

“You’ll know when we get there.”

Half an hour later,

At the entrance of Baicao Garden.

Lou Potian handed an invitation letter to the guard and entered the garden with Lou Qianxue.

“The Baicao Garden is the most luxurious, elegant, and mysterious place under the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce. Even many dignitaries and princes find it difficult to reserve a place here. People with special status from all parts of the dynasty will be proud to enter Baicao Garden. Who would have thought that today, I would get the chance to visit such a place in my life!”

Lou Qianxue felt that something was off. She frowned and asked, “Who invited us here?”

“Qianxue, do you still remember when Grandpa told you that I had come to Liuyun Prefecture in advance to attend an important person’s birthday?”

Lou Qianxue nodded.

“That man was once a Fourth-grade alchemist! He had many disciples and friends in the Tian Zhao Dynasty and even in the seven nearby kingdoms. Even though his cultivation base is now ruined and he can’t practice alchemy anymore, he relies on his experience alone to still enjoy the status he has. Even the guards of Liuyun Prefecture call him Master Yan when they see him.”

Fourth-grade alchemist? Is it very impressive?

In the memory of the Alchemy God, even a ninth-grade Alchemist wasn’t much…

Only

Lou Qianxue wasn’t surprised. “Was he the one who invited us?”

“I guess so. His grandson, Yan Gongqing, a genius in Alchemy, wrote the letter, but it should have been instructed by that man. It seems that the young people who participated in the prefecture competition this year are all too impressive. Even he was moved to take action. Maybe he wants to pick out a few outstanding ones and refer them to the Alchemy Union. Qianxue, if he takes you in as his disciple, you would have the ability to compete with even the Zhu Family of the Imperial City.”

Lou Potian was afraid that Qianxue might lose out to Lou Xingchen who was in the good graces of the Zhu Family. Therefore, he wanted Qianxue to get close to such ‘great powers’.

A warm expression appeared in Lou Qianxue’s eyes as she replied, “Got it, Grandpa.”

Since this was what Lou Potian wanted, she would do so to make him feel a sense of security.

The two of them were just speaking when they saw two young men walking toward them. They were dressed elegantly, and a warm smile graced their lips.

The moment Lou Potian saw them, a strange smile appeared on his face. He lightly coughed and said, Qianxue, Grandpa has some matters to handle. So I’ll have to go. You stay here and form some good connections with these youngsters.”
