Fragrances!
Not strong, just faint. .
However!
Enough!
"Nourishing Essence Pill Tiger Blood Strong Yuan Powder Jade Pure Powder Ginseng Toad Pill Small Creation Pill, and other familiar scents Jason knew, as well as many unfamiliar ones, perated through the Red Fragrance Alley.
Like smoke, like fog.
Standing in the shadows, Jason couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
"So fragrant!
In his heart, Jason marveled.
Then, so speculations appeared in his gaze as he looked toward the Red Fragrance Alley.
There was definitely not such a strong fragrance in the Red Fragrance Alley before.
And now there is, naturally because of the daughter of the Dragonhead, Choi Dragon King, Choi Dragon Daughter.
Moreover, this feeling of pervasive fragrance was not because of the so-called Secret dicine itself, but a long-term infusing sensation, as if it had been marinated.
Alchemist!
Jason’s eyes suddenly lit up.
After so ti, Jason had gained quite an understanding of this alternate world before him.
If martial artists were rare, then alchemists were even rarer.
Martial artists need talent, need money.
Alchemists do too.
Moreover, the amount of money needed far exceeds that of martial artists.
To ordinary people, martial artists already belong to wealthy families, but when martial artists look at alchemists, they feel like paupers.
Because every alchemist requires long-term practice to achieve success.
Take the most basic Nourishing Essence Pill as an example.
An alchemist needs to practice at least a hundred tis to master it, and even after a hundred tis, they’re just familiar with it, not succeeding every ti.
So, behind every alchemist, they’re either supported by a large family or a major power.
"That Dragonhead’ is really fortunate and really extravagant.
Jason marveled.
Having an alchemy talent is enough to surprise people, but what’s truly astonishing is being willing to put effort into it, especially before becoming prosperous.
When Dragonhead Choi Dragon King first established the Si Hai Bang, it wasn’t smooth sailing either, encountering many setbacks. At first, calling it small-scale operations was even an exaggeration; it wasn’t as large as his Mu-style Martial Arts School.
Yet under such a premise, the other party managed to train his daughter into an alchemist, showcasing their strategic foresight and tenacity.
In the subsequent developnt of Si Hai Bang, apart from Dragonhead Choi Dragon King’s own efforts, Choi Dragon Daughter’s Secret dicine also played an indispensable role.
"No wonder Red Fragrance Alley beca the cash cow of Si Hai Bang.’
"No wonder the developnt of Si Hai Bang’ has been so rapid in recent years.
Regarding the price of Secret dicine, Jason was already well aware. Just a slight calculation can reveal the imnse profit a stable Secret dicine producing Red Fragrance Alley can generate.
People, money, and martial arts.
It fully deserves the phrase: Stand tall, make the money. .
Just…
Thinking of Choi Dragon King’s death, Jason frowned.
Previously, Jason suspected that Choi Dragon King’s death had sothing suspicious about it.
Now?
It can already be confird.
Choi Dragon King was assassinated.
As for who did it?
That’s still unclear.
Jason didn’t bother to think about it too much; he was just a bodyguard, and his job was to escort Choi Dragon Daughter to Fragrance City, where soone would et them. After that, it wasn’t his concern anymore.
Of course, if this Choi Dragon Daughter turned out to be decent, he wouldn’t mind collaborating with her.
After all, Jason never minded having more food.
So at this mont, Jason silently appeared outside Choi Dragon Daughter’s room.
Inside the room, Xu Dashan was conversing with Choi Dragon Daughter
"Miss, Master Mu has agreed to escort you to Fragrance City.
Xu Dashan recounted the previous happenings in the martial arts school.
"Despite knowing the dangers, he is still willing to help. This Master Mu certainly lives up to his reputation of keeping his word, unlike others…
A gentle female voice sighed.
"This is only human nature.
"After all, martial artists like Master Mu are rare.
Xu Dashan also sighed.
Then, the old owner of Red Fragrance Alley continued, Miss, I’ll go prepare now. The ship will be leaving the dock soon.
"You go, I’ll have a word with Hongxiu.
The gentle female voice said.
"Alright, Miss.
Xu Dashan left the room and walked quickly outside.
From beginning to end, this old owner didn’t notice Jason standing in the shadows, even though they were only three or four ters apart.
At night, Choi Dragon Daughter’s maid, Hongxiu, would disguise herself as Choi Dragon Daughter to divert so people’s attention. Jason had heard Xu Dashan ntion this plan.
Now it seems true, Xu Dashan did not lie.
After confirming this, Jason was ready to leave.
But suddenly, Jason stopped in his tracks.
He looked in slight surprise towards Choi Dragon Daughter’s room.
Inside Choi Dragon Daughter’s room, a new fragrance had erged.
Still that kind of scent infused with various Secret dicines.
Moreover, the fragrance was even stronger than Choi Dragon Daughter’s.
They must have been hiding in a secret chamber before, as he didn’t sll it earlier. Now that they’ve appeared, Jason imdiately noticed this scent.
"There are actually two alchemists?!
Jason’s eyes were filled with surprise.
The appearance of one alchemist is already considered lucky.
For two alchemists to appear in the sa faction simultaneously, that’s not just re luck; it’s extraordinary fortune.
Especially when both alchemists are skilled.
As Jason was contemplating this, he suddenly heard the sound of crying coming from the room.
