Chapter 64 Pressure from the Alchemist Association

After Xuanyuan Heng and the others left Shuiqing Inn, Lu Chen thought of another problem. In Yunling Prefecture, besides the five major sects, there are also four major empires.

He has sent undercover agents to the five major sects, so does he also need to send several undercover agents to the four major empires?
The threat of the four great empires to the Temple of the Firmament is not necessarily less than that of the five great sects.

After thinking about it, Lu Chen finally decided that he should go to the ruins first to see if there is a suitable spirit body.

At present, there are only 41 people in Cangqiong Temple. With six people already dispatched, it is not suitable to continue to send people out. Otherwise, it will be difficult to manage the Lu Mansion, and it is still necessary to recruit more new talents.

At this moment.

Liu'an City, City Lord's Mansion.

Yi Anlan was looking into the distance with a serious face. Not long after, Song An brought a middle-aged man to him.

After seeing that man, Yi Anlan immediately asked: "Commander Tang, where did the Third Prince go? Why hasn't he arrived in Liu'an City yet?"

"As far as I know, the third prince came to Liu'an City by flying boat. With the speed of the flying boat, he should have arrived a few days ago."

Facing Yi Anlan's question, Tang Yue replied with a serious face: "Before I set off, the third prince had already left the imperial capital. He said he still had some things to do, so he didn't let me follow."

Hearing this, Yi Anlan said angrily: "Commander Tang, as the commander of the third prince's personal guard, you don't always follow the third prince to protect him. If something happens to the third prince, you know you will be What's the end!"

Regarding Yi Anlan's accusation, Tang Yue was also very upset. It wasn't that he deliberately didn't protect the third prince. If the third prince didn't let him follow, what could he do.

Could it be that if he wants to commit crimes above, he must follow the third prince, then, wouldn't he offend the third prince.

And when the third prince left, he didn't tell him at all. He also heard about the third prince leaving the imperial capital later.

Although he felt uncomfortable, it was hard for Tang Yue to say anything at this time. There was nothing wrong with Yi Anlan's words. If anything happened to the third prince, his end would probably be to destroy the Nine Clans.

Yi Anlan vented the anger in her heart and said, "Forget it, the most urgent thing is to find the third prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier from the City Lord's Mansion came to them.

"My lord, the third prince has someone bring a letter."

Hearing this, Yi Anlan hurriedly said, "Show me the letter quickly."

The soldier then handed the letter to Yi Anlan. After reading the contents of the letter, Yi Anlan's face became more serious.

This third prince is simply fooling around, what to do at the opening of the ruins at this time, and there is no strong person around him.

If the members of the royal family didn't go to the place where the ruins were opened, then those powerful people would recognize him, what would happen to him?
Besides, now is the time when the battle for succession is the most intense. Compared with the forces outside the Lingxiao Empire, it is the other princes who are more worrying.

Although the third prince said on the surface that he was no longer interested in the throne, the other princes would not listen to him.

Even if he is really not interested in the throne, keeping him is a huge hidden danger. After all, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and no one can tell whether the emperor will pass the throne to the third prince.

So the best way is to get rid of the third prince. In this way, even if the emperor wants to pass the throne to him, he can't do it.

Yi Anlan didn't think much about it, he hurriedly said to Tang Yue: "Commander Tang, the third prince has gone to Xia Dongcheng, so hurry up and take the third prince's personal guards to Xia Dongcheng to protect him."

Hearing this, Tang Yue didn't stop for a moment, and went directly to gather the troops and headed for Xia Dongcheng.

After Tang Yue left, Yi Anlan complained: "This third prince will really make trouble for others. With his personality, who would dare to follow him."

Song An hurriedly reminded: "My lord, be careful what you say, be careful that the walls have ears."

Yi Anlan sighed and said, "Forget it, let him go, he can do whatever he likes."

Speaking of this, Yi Anlan thought of other things, so she said, "By the way, have you received the elixir we ordered at Lufu?"

Song An replied, "I have already received it."

Yi Anlan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Their refining speed is too fast, if they can dedicate Lufu's alchemy method to the third prince..."

Thinking of this, Yi Anlan quickly rubbed her temples to stop herself from thinking about it.

He continued to say to himself: "No, the origin of the Lu family is unknown, and they don't know what kind of strength the forces behind them have. If they force it, accidents will easily happen."

Song An said at this time: "City Master, even if we don't take action against Lu Mansion, when the Third Prince comes to Liu'an City, I'm afraid he will also take action against Lu Mansion."

The Lu Mansion can not only refine pills in large quantities, but also improve the efficacy of the elixir. If the empire masters the alchemy method of the Lu Mansion, it will not need to spend so many resources to support so many alchemists in the future.

Maybe it can also realize the freedom of pills, and then improve the overall strength of the imperial army, which is a great achievement for the Lingxiao Empire.

If this matter is done, it may be more beneficial for the third prince to win the heir.

After hearing Song An's words, Yi Anlan ordered: "Recently, send more people to keep an eye on the Lufu. If there is any trouble in the Lufu, please notify me immediately."

"Yes."

Yi Anlan thought in her heart that even if the third prince was really interested in Lu Mansion's alchemy method, the third prince had to do it himself, and the city lord's mansion could not come.

If there is really a big force behind the Lu Mansion, it will be the Third Prince who will offend the Lu Mansion, not the City Lord's Mansion.

Just when Song An was about to go down and arrange more people to monitor the Lu Mansion, a soldier came to them and said, "My lord, the Lu Mansion has been purchasing alchemy medicinal materials on a large scale these two days, and all the fresh medicinal materials that can be harvested in the entire Liu'an City The Lu family bought it, and the Lu family sent people to other places to buy medicinal materials early this morning."

After hearing what the soldier said, Yi Anlan frowned.

What is Lufu doing?
Even if they were able to refine pills in batches, they wouldn't be so crazy about refining pills.

How many alchemists do they have, and those alchemists don't rest?

At this time, Yi Anlan felt a sense of foreboding in his heart.

Sure enough, he just came back to his senses, and when he was about to let the soldier continue to stare at the people in the Lu Mansion, a guard from the City Lord's Mansion rushed to them.

The guard said in a panic:

"My lord, it's not good. People from the Alchemy Association gathered a large group of alchemists to come to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and said that they want to ask the City Lord's Mansion for an explanation."

Hearing this, Yi Anlan was stunned for a moment, and then he asked with a dark face, "An explanation? What explanation do you want?"

The guard said: "My lord, you will know when you go out."

Yi Anlan immediately went to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

He came out to take a look, and found that the entire gate of the City Lord's Mansion was surrounded by alchemists. Those alchemists had anger on their faces, and they looked very angry.

Yi Anlan was a little confused, what was it that made them so angry?
At this time, Yi Anlan's eyes fell on the vice president of the Alchemy Association, and then asked seriously: "President Feng, what do you mean?"

Feng Chengfu immediately said: "My lord, we are also forced to do nothing. Ever since the Lu family came to Liu'an City, they have been buying medicinal materials in a big way. Now the price of alchemy medicinal materials in Liu'an City is rising every day."

"My lord, you must be the master for our alchemists."

This……

Yi Anlan then said coldly: "This is a matter between you alchemists, what does it have to do with me? What are you doing in the City Lord's Mansion?"

Feng Chengfu said: "Master City Lord, we already knew about the fact that your City Lord's Mansion went to Lu Mansion to purchase pills. If the City Lord's Mansion didn't support Lu Mansion, how could Lu Mansion develop so fast, and they wouldn't be able to have so many spirit stones?" Purchasing medicinal materials."

The Alchemist Association is very sensitive to the sales and circulation of pills, especially the procurement of pills from the City Lord's Mansion. After all, the City Lord's Mansion has always been a big customer of the Alchemist Association.

Now the pill business of the City Lord's Mansion has not only been robbed, but the price of medicinal materials has also been raised by the Lu Mansion.

More importantly, those alchemists in Lu Mansion have been reluctant to join the Alchemist Association for a long time. In this way, the price of medicine in Lu Mansion is not controlled by the Alchemist Association. How can the Alchemist Association bear it.

So they had to find a way to drive Lu Mansion out of Liu'an City.

To drive Lu Mansion out of Liu'an City, the best way is to put pressure on the City Lord's Mansion. Although the first-grade pill refined by Lu Mansion is very good, but the Lu Mansion can't refine high-grade elixir, use this as a threat, The Alchemist Association did not believe that the City Lord's Mansion would not back down.

After listening to Feng Chengfu's words, Yi Anlan understood that the Alchemist Association planned to use the City Lord's Mansion to drive away the Walking Mansion.

This will not work.

The elixir in Lu Mansion is of better quality, high in quality and cheap in price. The city lord's mansion buys elixir with the same medicinal effect at a lower price, which can save a lot of spirit stones every year. How could the city lord's mansion take the initiative to drive away Lu Mansion.

However, if he didn't make a statement, I'm afraid the Alchemist Association would not be able to explain it.

Afterwards, he cleared his throat, and said, "President Feng, as far as I know, all the medicinal materials that Lufu buys are freshly harvested. How could this affect the price of alchemy medicinal materials?"

Feng Chengfu said in a bad tone: "My lord, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? Those hoarded medicinal materials for alchemy will run out sooner or later. The Lu Mansion also signed a pre-purchase contract with the Wang family and the Yang family."

"From now on, the medicinal materials from the Wang family and the Yang family will be given priority to the Lu family. There are no medicinal materials, so how can us alchemists who are not from the Lu family make pills?"

Yi Anlan said, "Is that so..."

Speaking of this, Yi Anlan pretended to be thinking, and after a while, he said: "President Feng, how about this, you go back today, and I will find a way to deal with this matter."
