Chapter 428
“I used to think that you were too young and reckless to be independent, but judging from what you’ve
accomplished, it looks like you’ve been sharp all along. You haven’t disappointed me!” Vincent tapped
his son on the shoulder.
Fane’s lips curled into a satisfied grin at his father’s approval.
Meanwhile, in the Young Mansion.
Elder Young was meditating in the yard when Gilbert returned home with a dark look on his face.
“Gilbert, welcome home! So, what are the Shears up to?” Elder Young asked.
“I’ve looked into it, Dad, and everything the Shears advertised was true. The Energy Nurturing Pills
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwork even better than we anticipated.” Gilbert took a deep breath to suppress the frustration boiling
within him, before proceeding to describe everything that happened during the ceremony, including
how Gordon had a breakthrough in his training.
“So you’re saying that not only can the pills speed up the process of leveling up, they can help martial
artists pass the bottleneck of their progress? Is that true?” Elder Young asked in awe.
“It’s true. I saw it with my own eyes! I wanted to buy more first–grade Energy Nurturing Pills, but
Cynthion Group has limited every customer to purchase up to two hundred pills, so I ended up with just
two hundred first–grade Energy Nurturing Pills,” Gilbert said regretfully.
Both he and Elder Young knew that Gordon’s breakthrough was partly due to luck, but the Energy
Nurturing
Pill must have played a crucial role as well.
“Looks like the Energy Nurturing Pills work! I wonder how the Shears managed to produce them. This
is unbelievable!” Seeing the potential in the Energy Nurturing Pills, Elder Young sighed.
The Energy Nurturing Pills could allow faster progress and help martial artists pass the bottleneck of
their training, which meant that the Shear Family would soon be in control of all martial artists in the
city.
“I’m confused about that as well. If the Shears are capable of making these pills, why didn’t they start
selling them earlier? Why now?” Gilbert muttered “Dad, something isn’t right. Do you think that maybe
there’s someone else pulling the strings behind the Shears?”
“You’re suggesting that the Shears didn’t make the pills, and that they hired someone else to make
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem?” Elder Young mumbled thoughtfully.
“That’s right! Alchemy was common for a time in the past, but knowledge of it has been long lost! Even
if someone happens to be educated in alchemy, it has to be someone who has remained hidden from
public eyes! Someone is likely producing the pills and the Shears are just helping that person with
selling them!”
Gilbert said.
“Yeah, that sounds quite likely! Gilbert, send your men to look into this and see if there is someone
behind the Shear Family. If there is, we are going to pull that person to our side no matter the cost!”
Elder slammed his palms against the table with excitement.
If the Young Family could have the alchemist on their side, all the wealth and glory would be within
their
reach!
