The Reason

"Besides the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, there should be quite a few other forces that can provide you with protection! The Alchemist Guild would probably be very willing to accept your Thousand Poison Workshop." Although Miao Miao denied the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, among the forces Lin Ming knew, the Alchemist Guild of the Chu Yun Empire was not to be underestimated. That's why Lin Ming mentioned the Alchemist Guild.

"The Alchemist Guild! Ha, in the past, they would indeed have been a good choice. But now, the Alchemist Guild is not much different from these other forces." Miao Miao said with a disdainful expression after hearing Lin Ming mention the Alchemist Guild.

"Oh? It seems quite a lot has happened here!" Lin Ming said with a hint of doubt after hearing Miao Miao's words.

Seeing that Lin Ming was interested, Miao Miao didn't hide anything and started to explain.

After hearing what Miao Miao said, Lin Ming not only understood why Miao Miao Alchemist Guild was similar to these forces, but also why Yan Li was so willing to risk going to the Jia Ma Empire to cause trouble, believing that he would be able to take the position of president of the Alchemist Guild after his return.

Previously, the Alchemist Guild of the Chu Yun Empire was not much different from the Alchemist Guild of other empires. Although they sometimes received orders to refine pills containing poison, it was generally considered normal.

However, in recent years, the Alchemist Guild in the Chu Yun Empire have begun to slowly change.

Regardless of the country, the Alchemist Guild is extremely important to everyone else. It can provide other Dou Zhe with the elixirs they desire.

However, the situation is somewhat different in the Chu Yun Empire. The Chu Yun Empire is dominated by Poison Master, and although Alchemist are not entirely opposed to Poison Master, they are not far apart in importance.

Therefore, even if these Poison Masters could hire Alchemist to refine the pills they wanted, the price they had to pay was far higher than that of others.

Under such circumstances, discontent with the Alchemist Guild had long been rampant within the Chu Yun Empire.

Despite their dissatisfaction, there were still some things that only Alchemist could accomplish. Therefore, as things gradually changed, many Poison Master wanted to alter the relationship between the Alchemist Guild and the Poison Master. This opportunity began to emerge a few years ago.

The current president of the Chu Yun Empire Alchemist Guild is getting old and will soon be stepping down. This has given hope to those who want to cultivate good relations with the Alchemist Guild.

During the previous chairman's tenure, they had few opportunities, so they could only place their hopes on the next chairman. Therefore, the next chairman had to be someone who advocated for communication and cooperation with the Poison Master.

Therefore, against this backdrop, Yan Li, who had always advocated cooperating with Poison Master, naturally became the best candidate to cooperate with Poison Master and compete for the Alchemist Guild.

It can be said that even if Yan Li fails in his attempt to cause trouble in the Jia Ma Empire, as long as he can return to the Chu Yun Empire alive, he will undoubtedly become the next president of the Alchemist Guild in the Chu Yun Empire.

After all, he has the support of several major powers within the Chu Yun Empire, making it impossible for other competitors to rival him.

Of course, Yan Li, now that he's dead, can no longer be the president of the Chu Yun Empire Alchemist Guild. However, for those who want to cooperate with the Alchemist Guild, the death of Yan Li simply means choosing another one; it's just a bit more troublesome.

Among the forces that wanted to cooperate with the Alchemist Guild, the Poison Cloud Sect was one of them. The information that Miao Miao was talking about was also revealed to Miao Miao by Ren Fei Yun. The purpose was to show that the Poison Cloud Sect was already a behemoth, not only was it about to advance to the Dou Emperor, but the Alchemist Guild would also be on the same side in the future.

After listening to Miao Miao's words, Lin Ming understood why Miao Miao said the Alchemist Guild was similar to these other forces. After all, once they cooperated, they would all be on the same side, so there was no difference between them.

At the same time, Lin Ming suddenly realized why the Alchemist Guild of the Chu Yun Empire was only mentioned in the early part of the original work, but was not mentioned at all in the later part.

Later in the original story, within the Chu Yun Empire, there were only two major powers: the Poison Sect founded by Xiao Yi Xian and the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect. As for the other powers, they were all reduced to ashes and ceased to exist under Xiao Yi Xian's ruthless slaughter.

Based on Lin Ming's understanding of Xiao Yi Xian, the Alchemist were probably the ones who suffered the most. After all, Xiao Yi Xian's deepest wish at the beginning was to become Alchemist. But now, because of the Woeful Poison Body, she can only become a fearsome and dreadful Poison Master, and the most terrifying existence among Poison Master.

Xiao Yi Xian herself couldn't become Alchemist, but those who did become Alchemist, having chosen the path of Alchemist, still engaged in the activities of Poison Master. This made Xiao Yi Xian's killing of them far more ruthless than that of other Poison Master.

After all, when Xiao Yi Xian unified Heavenly Poison City, she ruthlessly slaughtered a large number of people who opposed her.

One can imagine that these Alchemists, who already made Xiao Yi Xian feel disgusted by their work as Poison Master, must have thought of themselves as noble Alchemist and had extremely high expectations of Xiao Yi Xian because they believed she would need their help.

Then, in the original story, because her strength increased rapidly, Xiao Yi Xian, who already knew how terrifying the Woeful Poison Body was, must have searched for ways to control or remove it.

If one wants to find a way to control or remove the Woeful Poison Body, the first people they would naturally think of are these Alchemists.

From the later part of the Chu Yun Empire, when the Protector of the Soul Hall said that there was a way to help Xiao Yi Xian the Woeful Poison Body, on the condition that Xiao Yi Xian would lead the Poison Sect with the other empires to attack the Jia Ma Empire, it can be seen that Xiao Yi Xian absolutely had not found a way to control or remove the Woeful Poison Body in the Alchemist Guild of the Izumo Empire.

This group of people, whom I already despise, who offer me no help, yet consider themselves arrogant and want to raise their standards, will be met with absolutely no mercy from Xiao Yi Xian.

Therefore, Lin Ming estimated that in the original work, most of the Alchemist in the Chu Yun Empire were slaughtered after Xiao Yi Xian took over, to the point that they trembled and submitted, and were then directly incorporated into the Poison Sect, becoming one of its Poison Sect Medicine Refinement Hall.

Only in this way could no information about the Chu Yun Empire Alchemist Guild emerge in the following period. Otherwise, no matter what, as an Alchemist organization of an empire, there would always be traces left behind.
