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

Chapter 52 Bigger and Stronger, Greater Glory

at dusk.

The setting sun slanting down on the horizon shone warmly, and was broken into sparkling light by the ripples of the Yanghe River.

To the east of Yanghe River is the prosperous East Market, where the most prosperous restaurant in Linge is also located.

At this moment, it is the best time for their business.

Those who come in and out are all talented people and wealthy families.

A woman wearing a fiery red robe pulled another woman in a long skirt and entered the door in a hurry.

"Eh? Isn't that Zhu Li? Where did she steal the alchemist's robe?"

"Shut up that long-tongued woman. I am now the number one alchemist of the Xingyu Dan Society. I will beat you up if you continue to gossip!"

Zhu Li's hearing was particularly sharp today, and she waved her fist at the young woman who was talking in a low voice.

The woman was startled, but she still wanted to retort: ​​"You..."

Zhu Li immediately asked loudly: "Tell her, who am I?"

This time.

A group of alchemists in the lobby wearing the same style of alchemy robes all shouted at the top of their lungs: "The number one alchemist of the Xingyu Alchemy Association!"

The woman: "..."

Other customers: "..."

They were all frightened, and the momentum seemed to be genuine.

Moreover, they have all heard that in this Gongdan Conference, the new force called Xingyu Danhui has taken orders of 140 million taels, and seems to be pursuing the three major alchemy masters.

The alchemy robes of these people indeed seemed to be the symbol of the Xingyu Alchemy Society.

So this Zhu Li...

For a moment, the woman's face turned pale.

Seeing this, Zhu Li retracted his fist with satisfaction and looked at Kan Luotang beside him: "Am I majestic?"

Kan Luotang couldn't help but smile: "Awesome!"

Zhu Li tugged at her hand: "Let's go! The senior officials of our Danfang are all in the private room on the second floor, and Zhao Ci should be there too."

"This……"

"Don't you want to see him?"

"I……"

Kan Luotang chuckled softly and said, "Actually, it's fine for me to meet him in private. Today is your alchemy club's celebration banquet after all. It's not appropriate for me to attend as an outsider."

Zhu Li waved her hand: "What's inappropriate about that? I wouldn't be able to get in without you. How come you are also a non-staff headhunter of our Dan Club!"

Kan Luotang: "..."

Non-staff headhunter?

It seems reasonable.

Zhu Li was a little curious and lowered her voice and asked: "Luotang, why do you suddenly want to see him? Is it because you want to become my boss's wife early?"

Kan Luotang smiled and shook his head: "Of course not. In fact... I still have something serious to ask of you."

"What's the matter?"

"Today he asked Your Majesty for 20 taels of elixir for the people. I was thinking that if possible, he could choose people from the three northern counties."

"what?"

Zhu Li was stunned for a moment, and countless images flashed back in her mind.

Before becoming an official of Zhao Ci, the only person in Linge who was willing to take her to play was Kan Luotang, so she often followed Kan Luotang to practice medicine in Beisan County.

The situation among the people there is really terrible.

Because it is close to the entrance of a former ruins, this ruins has hardly been tamed, and the air of the dark wood has seeped out, causing poisonous weeds to spread there, and even the crops will be poisonous.

Although it is not highly toxic, long-term consumption will always accumulate in the body, causing people to become weak and extremely prone to diseases.

Many people want to move away.

But in order to suppress this relic, the imperial court did not allow migration at all, and simply used the population to forcibly digest the poison.

In addition, the entrance to the ruins is erratic and cannot be completely blocked by the court. Desperados often come in and out, and it is common for them to do a few evil things by the way.

The environment is harsh, and experts outside the three counties in the north don't want to enter.

As for their local young people, due to physical reasons, their innate cultivation conditions are very poor.

Zhu Li understood what Kan Luotang meant. With one breath of energy, all diseases will disappear. If you throw five thousand Qi training pills over, even if you can't create many physical realm masters, you can still support a generation, which will alleviate the plight of Beisan County a lot. .

But if placed in the three northern counties, the benefits to the imperial court would undoubtedly be the lowest.

After all, it's the same pill.

It is a choice given to a person with considerable talent.

Or give it to a sick person in urgent need of medical treatment?Different people give different answers.

Zhu Li was a little annoyed: "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult!"

Kan Luotang nodded: "That's why I want to talk to him about this matter in person."

"Don't worry, Luotang, I am now his confidant, designated to intercede for you."

"do not!"

Kan Luotang quickly stopped: "His Highness is willing to donate 20 taels to benefit the people, which is already a great act of kindness. He must have his own ideas in doing so. If you are asked to come forward, it will inevitably be a bit more threatening. This The elixir has nothing to do with me, so talking about it rashly is rude, so how can I threaten it? So don’t mention a word about this matter."

"...Are you tired from living like this?"

Zhu Li was a little speechless, but soon regained her excitement: "We'll talk about your business later. Come to our celebration banquet first."

With that said, he pulled her and broke into the door of the elegant room.

"Zhao... Your Highness! Your number one alchemist is here... Huh? Where is Your Highness?"

"The blessings are here!"

Li Shu stood up and said: "His Highness said that he went to negotiate with Xunmo and Lingyun. If it was over, he would come here long ago. If it was late, he would just go into seclusion and practice. He will practice for the first time today. "

"what……"

Zhu Li was a little disappointed: "The first body training was so grand. I didn't even attend the celebration banquet. Those who didn't know thought he had opened the physical body!"

This disappointment cannot be concealed.

Now was the time to share the joy, and she was still preparing to tell Zhao Ci how ugly those family members looked when they wished her!
Seeing her like this, Kan Luotang couldn't help but smile. At first, she was worried that Zhu Li wouldn't be able to adapt to the environment. But now it seems that she gets along very happily with her boss, otherwise she wouldn't be like this. The desire to share.

As for the pills.

It’s better to visit Zhao Ci in person tomorrow!
She also didn't expect that Zhao Ci would choose to directly exchange 20 taels for pills and donate them to the people.

No matter what his purpose is, such a mind is not something ordinary people can have.

Such a wonderful person.

Li Shu stood up with a smile: "Today's Gongdan Conference, I wish you the greatest contribution. In the future, I will rely on Zhusong to help me rise to the top of the Yudan Society. This glass of wine, I wish you the best!"

"Hey, good, good!"

The disappointment in Zhu Li's eyes was swept away, she raised her wine glass, and excitedly shouted the slogan Zhao Ci once told her: "Become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!"

Kan Luotang: "..."

Sometimes, I really envy this character.

……

Nine Palaces.

"what!"

Zhao Yong sat up violently, panting heavily, beads of sweat rolling down his pale face.

The maid on the side suddenly became happy and ran out of the door quickly: "Doctor! Doctor! Your Highness is awake."

"how!"

Zhu Yan quickly brought the tea. After Zhao Yong came back, his mental state was not right. He kept having chest tightness and shortness of breath, his face was extremely pale, and he was sweating constantly on his forehead.

It was fine at first, but when I heard that Xunmo and Lingyun went to Xiang's Alchemy House, he fainted when his head tilted.

This is obviously a symptom of mental exhaustion.

After all, this was a huge blow. After all, he opened the mansion just to become the prince's right-hand man.

Backed by the Feng Zhu family, he spent a lot of money on this Gongdan Conference, just to become famous in one fell swoop and let those real talents see that they can eat by following the Nine Princes' Mansion.

But he never thought that after being squeezed by Zhao Ci like this, he would not be able to eat not only meat, but also shit.

No need to say what Zhao Yong thinks.

Now Zhu Yan is under a lot of pressure.

With such a commotion, I don't know if any young genius is willing to join the Nine Princes' Mansion.

After all, no one wants to end up lacking achievements as soon as they enter the mansion.

"Don't drink!"

Zhao Yong gasped and pushed the teacup away irritably.

Zhu Yan could only put down the teacup and frowned: "Speaking of which, it's also my problem. If I had stopped my father from letting this little bitch Zhu Li out, then..."

Zhu Li's name was mentioned.

The expressions of both people were so gloomy that they were dripping with water.

No one expected that the person who dealt the fatal blow to Yonghe Danfang was actually Zhu Li, a recognized waste in alchemy.

"Cough, cough!"

Zhao Yong felt extremely tight in his chest and coughed violently several times. After he recovered, he said in a deep voice, "I don't blame you! I was there that day, and I didn't stop him either!"
