241: Alchemy? It's never too late.

Early the next morning, Feng Ming got up.

Because he did not plan to see Ye Min today, Feng Ming did not have the heart to wake her up, mainly because she had waited too late for him yesterday.

After he returned, he hadn't been able to help himself and had tossed her around a bit; he reckoned she must be exhausted.

Feng Ming naturally told her about meeting Lu An'an; after all, it was Lu An'an who had ignited the fire, which was why he hadn't been able to restrain himself when he returned to see Jiang Shuwan.

However, Feng Ming did not mention the matter of meeting Madam Hua. It wasn't that he didn't trust Jiang Shuwan, but rather that she had a worrying nature, and Feng Ming was concerned that if she knew, she would become even more anxious and distressed, adding to her troubles for no reason.

Seeing Feng Ming come out, Feng Da hurriedly bowed, "Young Master, where are we going today?"

As Feng Ming sat down to eat, he looked around and did not see Feng Mian, so he asked casually, "Where is my eldest brother?"

"The Eldest Young Master went to the restaurant, thinking to gather some information while he was at it."

Feng Ming nodded. Indeed, they needed to gather information. He was too busy to attend to it, so it was appropriate for his eldest brother to go.

"I am going to tear down the notice in a while; you don't need to follow me."

"Hmm, what has Lu Qianqian been doing these past few days? It seems I haven't seen her lately."

Feng Da smiled and said, "Young Master, Miss Lu is very busy right now. I've truly gained some insight; I finally know what social interaction means. Being a Young Miss of the City Lord's Mansion isn't so easy after all."

"When we first set off, the City Lord brought a carriage full of items for the Second Miss. I thought it was all for her, but it turned out to be gifts for her to present to others."

"Starting from Meng City, the Second Miss began making various visits. After arriving in Liang Province, she became even busier, visiting four or five families a day. Just an hour ago, she already set off to visit an old friend of her father's!"

Hearing this, Feng Ming couldn't help but laugh. With Lu Qianqian's flighty personality, doing such things must have been difficult for her.

After finishing breakfast, Feng Ming said to Feng Da, "Alright, don't follow me. I have to go handle this matter myself."

Just as he was about to get up, Feng Ming thought of another person and suddenly asked, "Has Huangfu Yunyan returned?"

Feng Da was stunned, "It seems she didn't come back all night last night!"

"Hey, hey! Young Master, look..."

Feng Da pointed at the entrance and said.

Feng Ming followed his gaze and saw Huangfu Yunyan walking in. Seeing her posture, Feng Ming understood everything.

Huangfu Yunyan hadn't expected to see Feng Ming here either. Meeting his direct gaze, she looked ashamed and angry.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman in discomfort?"

Feng Ming smiled, "I can tell you're in discomfort, but the words 'beautiful woman' don't seem to apply to you."

"You..." Huangfu Yunyan was furious.

Feng Ming said, "I know you hate me. Although your father deserved to die, if you want to seek revenge, I am ready at any time."

"But I still want to say one thing: your father and brother in the afterlife surely wouldn't want to see you torture yourself into this half-human, half-ghost state for the sake of revenge!"

"Stop spouting your hypocritical moralizing here!" Huangfu Yunyan said indignantly, "Isn't everything I'm suffering today thanks to you?"

"How I treat myself is my own business and has nothing to do with you, so stop acting hypocritical."

Feng Ming shrugged and said, "As long as you think it's worth it!"

After saying this, Feng Ming walked straight out of the Inn!

Watching the direction Feng Ming left in, Huangfu Yunyan said angrily in her heart, "Hypocrite, sooner or later I will make you kneel before me!"

"And that damn Jiang Huai, he's simply a beast, it hurts so much!"

Huangfu Yunyan cursed as she walked step by step toward her room.

A quarter of an hour later, he appeared on the street, but by this time, his entire person had changed; his appearance had altered, and even his clothes had changed!

Previously, Feng Ming was very handsome, the kind of person who would make people look twice when walking in a crowd. But now, he was extremely mediocre, to the point where if you threw him into a crowd, no one would notice him!

Especially when combined with his Qi-suppressing technique, others couldn't detect any aura of a Cultivator on him at all.

"Looking like this, surely no one will be able to recognize me now!"

Feng Ming was very confident in his disguise.

Unless it was a powerhouse in the Immortal King Realm, no one would be able to discover his true strength or his disguise.

When he entered the city that day, Feng Ming had discovered that there were shops in Liangzhou City specializing in disguises. Today, he went with the intention of giving it a try.

He hadn't expected the effect to be so good. As expected of Liangzhou City; even the art of disguise was so well-developed.

Thinking this, Feng Ming immediately walked toward the restaurant.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, he saw Feng Mian chatting with a Waiter, and he didn't notice Feng Ming entering at all.

Seeing that the effect was quite good, Feng Ming walked straight toward the direction of the notice, and then directly tore it down.

He had thought that since he had torn down the notice, it would surely attract some attention!

However, no one in the restaurant paid any attention to him.

In the end, he had to take the notice and run to the restaurant's front desk.

Only then was the manager startled. He hurriedly called over a Waiter to quickly escort Feng Ming to the Jiang Mansion.

Seeing that Feng Mian hadn't noticed him from beginning to end, Feng Ming felt somewhat helpless. He didn't know whether to say his eldest brother was too focused on gathering intelligence or that his own disguise was too successful.

A short while later, the restaurant Waiter brought Feng Ming to a stop in front of a quiet manor.

Looking at the plaque hanging on the manor in front of him, Feng Ming couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Little brother, wasn't this notice issued by the Jiang Family? Why aren't you taking me to the Jiang Family Mansion?"

Hearing this, the Waiter smiled, "Your Excellency must be visiting Liangzhou City for the first time. The Jiang Family has many properties in Liangzhou City; some hang the Jiang Family plaque, and naturally, some do not."

Feng Ming realized and continued to ask, "May I ask which adult from the Jiang Family is inside this Quiet Garden that doesn't have a Jiang Family plaque?"

The restaurant Waiter smiled and said, "I don't know about that. You should just go in and ask for yourself!"

"Farewell!"

The Waiter said, then left.

Seeing this, Feng Ming shook his head helplessly and walked toward the gate of the Quiet Garden by himself.

There wasn't even a guard here, which seemed quite different compared to the Jiang Family Mansion he had broken into the night before.

It didn't look like what a Jiang Family Mansion should look like at all.

Feng Ming stepped forward and knocked on the gate of the Quiet Garden. Soon, the gate was opened.

A man who looked like a subordinate poked his head out and asked.

"Who are you looking for?"

Feng Ming raised the notice in his hand, "I am here for Alchemy!"

"Alchemy? Oh! Please wait a moment!"

The man then closed the gate again.

This time, about five minutes passed before the gate was opened again, and an old man walked out from inside with a smile.

"Greetings, Young Master. I am the steward of this manor; you can call me Steward Jiang directly. Are you here to refine a ninth-rank elixir?"

Feng Ming nodded, "That is correct."

The steward smiled and said, "Young Master is truly young and promising. So far, you are the youngest Ninth-Rank Alchemist I have ever seen."

"Do you know the Alchemy rules of our Jiang Family? If you have no issues, please follow me inside."

Feng Ming nodded, "Of course, no problem."

After saying this, under the guidance of the steward, he walked into the manor.
