Fane had the confidence, so it was natural that he did not want to remain with Heavenly Pills. "I know you're sincere in your words, but I've already set a goal for myself long ago. I won't sway in my vision so easily.
"I have to go to the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance. There might be a lot of geniuses that'll try to suppress me, but I believe that the added pressure will only give me more motivation and spur me forward."
Fane's determined words had taken the vice-treasurer aback, baffling the man. He did not want to see Fane leave. The ability and talent that Fane had shown earlier made it evident to him that Fane was a prodigy that must not be released.
If Fane stayed with Heavenly Pills, Fane would no doubt bring them tremendous benefits. Then, his own stock would rise greatly, and he might even become an elder in the clan.
Fane immediately understood after he glanced at the vice-treasurer that the man would not give up easily. After taking a deep breath, Fane continued, "Heavenly Pills has helped me a lot, and I surely won't forget what they've done for me. If I make a name for myself in the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance, I'll definitely come to Heavenly Pills' aid should they encounter any trouble. Please, allow me to fulfill my goal!"
Fane hurriedly bowed at the vice-treasurer before he added, "I'll always remember your recommendation."
When the vice-treasurer heard that, he could not help but frown. He swallowed the words that had already been at the tip of his tongue. It was obvious that Fane was already determined. If he remained obstinate, he might completely screw things up. If Fane hated him, then it would be a great loss.
The vice-treasurer mulled over it for a long time before he nodded helplessly. All he could do was pray that Fane's words had not been lies.
"Since you're already so determined, I won't stop you. I hope you'll remember your words today."
Fane nodded earnestly, showing that he would not forget his words. Fane did say those words to escape Heavenly Pills, but he was always a man of his word.
If Heavenly Pills truly did encounter any problems in the future, he would help where he could.
