"In that case, my thanks to Chairman He."
"Hahaha, Hua Luoxuan, there's no need for such formalities." He Zhen stroked his beard and laughed. "Do you have any plans today? If not, the Alchemist Association simply must hold a celebration tonight. Gaining a new Fourth Grade Alchemist is a major event for us!"
Hua Luoxuan smiled. "I am at Chairman He's disposal. However, I must make a trip to the royal palace later to register. After all, I am a member of the court alchemists."
"Of course, of course." He Zhen smiled and nodded. "But let me be blunt: you absolutely must attend the banquet tonight. Don't let Yang An whisk you away, or this old man will truly be cross."
