Chapter 667

== Fang Mansion Party ==
Fang, Chai, and Chen celebrate at the Fang Mansion.
Fang Mingyuan toasts to Chen.
In truth, Chen did not have too warm a feeling to the Fang and Chai families, but he was ok with Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo. Although he still felt somewhat guilty using them to eliminate Huo, this is also what Fang and Chai sought to do as well.
"There's still one month until the elimination round. The preliminaries are just a starting round in the rules. The elimination round is ten times more difficult. So this one month's time is very crucial to you. If you pass the elimination round, you'll get another month until the finals. At that time, you'll be competing with Huo Wufang.
"This Pill Emperor Competition isn't just a chance for the Fang, Chai, and Huo families to compete. It's also a chance for you to change your destiny. The top ten will all be given special badges that will allow them to enter Pill Valley later. The top ten are given bountiful rewards, and as for the top three? Hehe, according to previous years, the rewards were so amazing that even I am greedy for them," laughed Fang Mingyuan.
"The Huo family is slowly encroaching on us. There are already several traitors in our families. But although we know that, we're helpless. The Huo family has accumulated an immense amount of wealth, and they've made countless connections. 
"If Huo Wufang takes the first place, then with Pill Valley's grooming, the two of our families really might be either forced out of the Pill Tower or exterminated. I've already made my preparations to make a final struggle, but this Long San has caused a change of plans. Let's keep watching. I really don't want to use our last resort. Hopefully, Long San can bring us a new opportunity," said Chai Gaoyang.
The next day, LC heads to the Medicinal Ingredient Repository.
