Instantly, an uproar swept through the crowd, filled with endless praise and congratulations.
The scene was festive. Clearly, this was a joyous occasion for the Xu Family and all its members.
"Good! Excellent!"
Xu Xuhe laughed heartily. His tiger-like eyes gazed at Lin Changheng as if he were a precious treasure. He walked right up and clapped him on the shoulder.
"I knew I wasn't mistaken about you, Alchemist Lin. Your future is truly limitless. Your compensation and benefits will all be upgraded. The clan will absolutely not treat you poorly!"
Hearing him say "the clan" instead of "my clan," Lin Changheng knew that Patriarch Xu, despite his rugged appearance, was a man of subtle thought. His words, both explicitly and implicitly, treated Lin Changheng as one of their own. He smiled and replied:
"Thank you, Patriarch! My achievements today would not have been possible without the clan's nurturing. I will hold this in my heart and never dare to forget it."
