Chapter 3262 on the Cusp
I don't know who spread the rumors, but such rumors spread even faster than Li Ye's other experiences in a short period of time.
And the major families, the Emperor's Gate orthodoxy have also heard such rumors.
"The first person in alchemy!"
"Hiss! The tone is quite loud! It has been many years, and no one dares to call himself so!"
"That's right, even if Emperor Alchemy doesn't make a move, he is the number one in alchemy under the Emperor Alchemy, and he is extremely arrogant!"
Naturally, when such rumors came out, many people would definitely be displeased.
Especially some veteran alchemists in Dongzhou City, among them some alchemy kings who have lived for more than ten thousand years, even groaned angrily after learning about this.
"The disciple of Emperor Danwu! He has inherited the character of Emperor Danwu back then! However, I don't know how much we can do with Emperor Danwu!"
"I think back then, after becoming the Dan Emperor, the Great Emperor Danwu fought against seven Dan Emperors alone, and finally convinced his opponents. That's how he got the title of the first person in the Dao of Alchemy! This boy is only a fledgling now, but he has With such a tone, hehe, the old man wants to meet him for a while!"
In Dongzhou City, there are many alchemy kings. There are also some famous alchemists who have lived for many years, nine-dan alchemy kings!
Now, there are quite a few Nine Duan Alchemy Kings who are unhappy because of this matter.
"Longevity Pill! It is indeed the unique secret recipe of Emperor Danwu, but that alone is far from enough to prove the level of this son's alchemy! Such a joke, claiming to be the first person in the way of alchemy, is really ridiculous!"
Just a rumor pushed Li Ye to the forefront in an instant.
Not even he himself knew about it.
But the rumors were fast.
Bai Wujie has decided to follow Li Ye now, and he has heard of the recent rumors in Dongzhou City.
After learning about it, he naturally knew that something was wrong.
"This matter is quite unfavorable to the young master."
As an old Jianghu, for so many years, he understood the conspiracy almost as soon as he heard the rumors.
After all, no one knows better than him what kind of character the young man he is following now is. Not to mention such insolent words, it is impossible for Li Ye to reveal his sect with great fanfare.
"Bai Lao, what should we do about this?"
Yan Yang is now learning alchemy from Bai Wukai's side, and now he can be regarded as a small achievement, and he can be alone. Even after he heard the rumors, he smelled a hint of conspiracy.
"You must tell the young master that this matter is by no means simple."
Just as Bai Wuci was about to notify Li Ye, someone from the Gu family came over there.
The person who came was Gu Lie, and now the Gu family regards Li Ye as an offering, even though Li Ye has never promised to be the guest elder or enshrinement of the Gu family, but the Gu family knows that with Li Ye around for a day, their Gu family will be as stable as Mount Tai!
In particular, it is absolutely harmless to have a good relationship with the disciples of Emperor Danwu!
"Bailao!"
Seeing Bai Lao, Gu Lie was also quite polite.
After all, knowing the identity of Bai Lao, a ninth-level alchemy king, is enough to make people respect him wherever he goes.
"It turned out to be the Second Young Master Gu, did you come to find the Young Master?"
Now Bai Wuxi is not hiding anything, since Li Ye is the descendant of Emperor Danwu, even if he follows Li Ye, a young man, he will not lose face. And more importantly, he doesn't value his own reputation like other alchemists.
For Bai Wuci, the Gu family also deliberately recruited him. It's a pity that Li Ye took the lead.
Now Gu Lie just smiled wryly, "Bai Lao must have heard the wind, right?"
"Second Young Master Gu, are you referring to the ones that have been rumored recently?"
"It seems that Bai Lao knows about this matter?"
"It's not what my young master said. The second young master Gu should be aware of my young master's temperament. There must be fraud in this matter."
Gu Lie also nodded, "This junior thinks the same way, I also know Brother Li's character."
Coincidentally, Li Ye came out of retreat.
"Hey, Gu Lie, what are you doing here? The Gu family's next batch of longevity pills hasn't arrived yet."
Seeing Gu Lie, Li Ye was surprised.
Now his agreement with the Gu family is to refine a batch of longevity pills for the Gu family for a period of time. The quantity is not much, but it is enough for the Gu family to take the top spot in the elixir market in Dongzhou City!
"Brother Li, you are still in the mood to joke, don't you hear the rumors from the outside world?"
Seeing Li Ye's indifferent face, Gu Lie felt speechless and couldn't help sighing.
"rumor?"
"Young master, it is now rumored that you claim to be the number one alchemist under the alchemy emperor, which has already caused dissatisfaction among many alchemists in Dongzhou City."
Bai Wuxie sighed, he is also an alchemist, so he naturally understands the troubles that such words will cause.
If he hadn't known Li Ye's abilities, he would have been displeased when he heard these remarks.
"The first person in alchemy?"
Li Ye was taken aback, then frowned.
He wasn't stupid, he didn't need to guess, he definitely became an enemy in the eyes of many alchemists in Dongzhou City.
"That's right, Brother Li, I was worried about this at first, but now, it seems that it's not from Brother Li's side. This makes people feel strange!"
Gu Lie shook his head, but as if he had thought of something, he looked at Li Ye.
The next moment, the two spoke in unison, "The Lin family?"
"It seems that brother Li is thinking of going with me!"
To say that it wasn't long before Li Ye came to Dongzhou City, besides the Helan family that he had provoked before, this enemy really counted, and there was only the Lin family!
Moreover, the Helan family has never made a statement, and they don't even seem to know about Li Ye's appearance.
The only suspects are the Lin family!
"This Lin family! Hmph, I have always liked to use such despicable means to act. Obviously this time because brother Li helped my Gu family and made their wishful thinking of the Lin family come to naught, now my anger is on brother Li."
After finishing speaking, Gu Lie showed apology, "This matter happened because of my Gu family, but it caused Brother Li to suffer. I am here to apologize to Brother Li on behalf of the Gu family. My Gu family will definitely support Brother Li to the end!"
How could Li Ye not know what the Gu family was thinking.
He even suspected for a moment that this matter was done by the Gu family.
But soon he denied this guess. Firstly, Gu Lie's eyes were clear and clear without any dodging. Secondly, the Patriarch of the Gu family was not a stupid person.
Pushing him to the forefront will not do much good to the Gu family.
On the contrary, if Li Ye gets angry because of this, breaks with the Gu family and joins with other aristocratic families, it will be a major blow to the Gu family.
"Whether it was the Lin family's work or not is just your guess. Now that the rumors have spread, it doesn't matter whether it is the Lin family or not."
Just as Gu Lie was angrily about to leave, before heading to Lin's house, Li Ye stopped him.
The deal was done, and he knew that instead of finding the culprit, it was better to figure out how to deal with it.
