It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 24 This devil sect girl is quite good at caring about people.

Day and night, everyone in Dayu thought about regaining their homeland, so naturally all the people were martial.

After the 18th Golden Year, people's lives have become much more prosperous, but most of their family's income will be spent on their children's cultivation.

Therefore, Linge holds an alchemy meeting every month. At this time, major alchemy shops will come forward to sell elixirs, or use the elixirs to recruit retainers for the masters behind them.

Of course, in addition to these, there are often some treasures related to alchemy.

It's just that these things have nothing to do with civilians, so they are usually placed in auctions. Only alchemists and people with sufficient assets are allowed to enter.

The auction is held by the Dan Alliance. The so-called Dan Alliance is a loose organization under the jurisdiction of the royal family. Therefore, it is almost a public area, and there is no concept of which family it belongs to.There are two floors inside, but there are only fifty seats, which fully proves that this is a game for a few people.

On the second floor, somewhere is a private room.

Gu Xiangzhu looked at Zhao Ci and said in a deep voice: "Your plan is too risky."

Zhao Ci smiled: "It doesn't matter!"

"Why is it okay? Zhao Yong is not a fool. When he reacts, he will definitely destroy your reputation. If you are not successful in the elixir industry and want to accumulate achievements through other businesses, I am afraid it will be difficult. Then ask for a task from the Ministry of War and Punishment , if he insists on using a stumbling block, your situation will be too dangerous."

"What the concubine said is true!"

Zhao Ci was actually a little touched. This demon sect woman was quite caring about people.

She is right, she has no one now, and her strength has not been mentioned. Although Zhao Yong has a poor personality, his cultivation is already very strong among his peers, and he has many elite soldiers.

The Zongren Mansion encourages infighting between the houses. Now in the business world, he will not take action against himself, but once it comes to the tasks of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice, this person will never let him go.

After all, what I did in this wave is really bad, and buying black hot searches will backfire.

But he still smiled: "Mother! Since I chose to open a mansion, I must be heading to heaven. If I am thinking of doing ordinary business, why bother to open a mansion? It's better to do it to the extreme and win. Eat meat, eat dirt if you lose, or at worst, lie dormant for a while and confront him head-on."

Gu Xiangzhu's brows were still furrowed, but there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

He is really a good candidate to join my teaching.

To be honest, the more she looked at Zhao Ci in the past two days, the more she liked him.

But she also knew that the main reason was the medicinal extraction technique.

Zhao Ci told him yesterday that mass production may be difficult, but if he works hard, it will not be a big problem to produce the amount needed for the Gongdan Conference.

Otherwise, she would not put the newly built Xiang's Alchemy House in his name.

[Gu Xiangzhu’s current wish]: Get these pill furnaces from the Zhuge family.Reward for completing the wish: Comprehension value +100, can steal skills: God Refining Furnace.

Zhao Ci: "..."

Woman, I can see the desire in your eyes.

God Refining Furnace... This skill sounds awesome. It's not in vain that I sold my remaining morality for this auction.

Gu Xiangzhu said calmly: "My mother will not come forward for this auction. You will be fully responsible for it. You must win it."

"Yes!"

Zhao Ci responded calmly: "The child will go down first."

After receiving Gu Xiangzhu's consent, Zhao Ci went directly downstairs and entered the auction house.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I came downstairs, I met an acquaintance.

"Brother Imperial, you are here too!"

"???"

Zhao Yong's face turned dark when he saw Zhao Ci being affectionate. How could this person be so shameless, doing such obscene things on the front foot, and acting like nothing happened on the back?
He took half a step back and said in a neutral tone: "I'm so happy and congratulated to hear that the emperor's brother has an additional alchemy shop under his name! However, as a person who has been through this, I still want to advise you to stay awake.

The clan government keeps a very strict eye on us. All external property and manpower will be converted into deductions for merit. Don't be greedy and forcefully seize this batch of pill furnaces, resulting in three years of failure to achieve merit. "

Zhao Ci was moved and said: "Thank you, Brother Huang, for reminding me, you are quite a nice person!"

Looking at his honest and honest look, Zhao Yong felt a little nauseous, that is to say, there were many people here. If there were few people, this rogue would definitely point his nose and start scolding.

This person is really disgusting!
He waved his hand and took Zhu Yan to his seat.

But he never thought that Zhao Ci would also follow.

Zhao Yong frowned: "Why are you following me?"

Zhao Ci smiled and said: "I have no experience participating in the auction for the first time. I feel safe following Brother Huang."

Zhao Yong: "???"

He felt slightly bad.

But I couldn’t tell what was wrong.

For a moment, he was actually a little anxious.

But then I adjusted my mentality.

No matter what, they will not miss the alchemy furnace this time. The alchemists under Zhao Ci are already neglecting them. As long as they cannot get this batch of pill furnaces, they are destined to not be able to get too many orders.On the contrary, in order to disgust himself, he left quite a big loophole, and he had many ways to kill him.

madness!

After figuring this out, his mentality became much more balanced.He turned around and looked at Zhuge Weiyue, who was not far away, and the handsome young man sitting in a wheelchair beside him.

He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I have met Senior Zhuge, this is..."

Zhuge Weiyue was still dressed in smart clothes, and she raised her hands casually and said: "The Ninth Prince is here, this is Zhuge Xiao, my eldest nephew!"

Zhao Yong smiled and cupped his hands: "It turns out to be Brother Zhuge. I have admired Brother Zhuge for a long time! He brought a pill furnace worth ten thousand gold alone. I really admire your courage."

Zhuge Xiao held a feather fan and returned the gift with a faint smile, but didn't say much, because Zhuge Weiyue had explained that he was still a little simple now and might not be used to Linge's high-end business war. The most important thing to do was to keep silent and pretend to be high-minded. Otherwise, it would be difficult to send him to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

really.

Seeing Zhuge Xiao smiling and saying nothing, Zhao Yong couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Next, it was time to chat and reminisce about old times, and he was very comfortable with this kind of scene.

But not long after he said it, he shut up because he saw Kan Luotang and Zhu Li sitting not far away, and suddenly felt tingling all over his body.

He couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Why are they here?"

Zhu Yan frowned slightly, suddenly thought of something, and took out a pamphlet from his arms.

This is the list of this auction. The Zhuge family’s alchemy furnace is in the middle, which is considered a small climax of the auction.

The first one used to warm up the field was a rather strange pill.

Make fire elixir.

A kind of elixir that can improve the ability to control fire. It has strange effects and very few people can refine it. Even no one in the Zhu family can refine it.

Logically speaking, this should be a treasure for alchemists.

But in fact, people with strong fire control talents don't need this external power at all.

For people with poor fire control talents, even if they can make elixirs from this elixir, the upper limit will not be too high and they may not be able to make back their money.

One word: tasteless!
When a normal alchemist sees this elixir, he or she will sigh enthusiastically and then do whatever he needs to do.

Except for one person present.

That is Zhu Li!
Her poor ability to control fire is simply because her natural flame is too explosive and it is difficult to control the temperature. However, she is obsessed with being an alchemist in an attempt to regain her father's status as the head of the family.

Although even if this pill falls into her hands, it may not have any effect.But the Zhu family is in an extraordinary period, and no one wants to see an accident happen.

Zhao Yong also saw the clues: "It is the Zhu family's business to suppress her. You are a member of this palace now, so don't get involved."

Zhu Yan nodded: "Don't worry, Your Highness! There are other members of our Zhu family on the court."

……

not far away.

Zhu Li looked at the fire pill on the booklet and was so excited that her breathing became short.

Kan Luotang was a little helpless: "Zhu Li! You are gifted with a blazing flame. If you specialize in killing, you will definitely be able to make a difference. Why bother to be an alchemist?"

Zhu Li shook her head crazily: "I am the daughter of the head of the Zhu family, how can I be a reckless man who only knows how to set fire? I must be an alchemist to prevent those villains from taking over and bullying my father. Luotang, don't you support me too? ?”

"Of course I want to support you, but my wallet doesn't support you. It's late autumn soon, and the disease is about to reappear in the three counties of the North. I almost don't have enough money for herbal medicine."

"This……"

Zhu Li was a little confused. Although she was ostracized, as the daughter of the head of the family, her monthly income was not large.

But the alchemy furnaces exploded one after another, and no matter how many months ago they were not enough, they often had to rely on Kan Luotang's help to survive.

This time, Kan Luotang's small treasury was even emptied.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Try one last time. If it doesn't work, I will listen to you."

"Ok!"

Kan Luotang nodded, and the two of them said nothing more.

Subconsciously, she glanced in the direction of Zhao Ci, and happened to find that Zhao Ci was also looking at her.

She couldn't help but panic, but the sentence "There is no point in being wise and protecting one's self when you are walking and sitting upright" suddenly came to her mind.

Set your mind.

Luoluo bowed her hand to him generously.

……

Why is she giving her hand to me?
Are you afraid that others won't know that we are engaged?
Our wedding is in three years, so you don't want to attack me in advance, do you?
Zhao Ci felt a little confused, after all, he was not looking at Kan Luotang.

[Zhu Li’s current wish]: To become an alchemist.Wish reward: Comprehension value +1000, talent can be stolen: Yuxin Fire Seed.

I drop mom!

Purple?
