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

Chapter 79 is broken!I'm a fake dad!

Xiang Yunduan couldn't understand how Zhao Ci dared to be so confident.

Zhao Ci said with a smile: "You don't give advice in the Xiang family because you are the boss of the Xiang family in Linge. But here, you receive a high premium for wages, but you don't do any work. You don't Do you think you are too arrogant as a part-time worker?"

Xiang Yunduan: "???"

He was a little angry: "You bastard..."

Zhao Ci quickly took out a contract from his arms: "You signed this!"

Xiang Yunduan: "..."

Seeing that he was angry, Zhao Ci said with a smile: "Old uncle! Our family doesn't speak the same language anymore. Tell us what a bad situation our Lao Xiang family has become in Linge. The money we earn from the weapon refining workshop , which is enough for young men to practice, otherwise you wouldn’t bring so many people here to work.

I'm hanging out in Linge. I can't say that I'm lonely and helpless. At least I'm alone. Can't we stay together in this situation?
Let's do this, I have the final say on this matter. As long as you are willing to point out these officials of mine, from now on I will cover all the Qi training pills for the young men of our Xiang family in Linge. Whether they are middle grade or high grade, they will be given at the cost price. you. "

Xiang Yunduan couldn't hold back his anger.

Now, both the common people and the big elixir clan who are not good at refining elixirs are going crazy.

It's just because of the price of elixirs from Xingyu Danhui. What's the difference between the price of elixirs given by Te Niang for free?
Many wealthy families are trying hard to sign big orders from Xing Yudan, but they can't even find anyone who can sign the orders.

Moreover, the Xingyu Dan Society has already spread the news that the elixirs will only be sold in bulk, and even civilians will be given priority, which has made the big clan members almost crazy.

If you can get it, it will be a good thing for the Xiang family.

Recently, the old antiques in the Xiang family have not heard from Concubine Jing, and they are all a little restless. They are doing his ideological work every day.

Because the Xiang family's foundation in Linge is not that strong, they are not even satisfied with the market price of 40 taels, and want to get it cheaper.

Isn't this making things difficult for me, Xiang Yunduan?

All retired.

Do you want me to pull this face down and show it to my nephew?
But I never thought that Zhao Ci would actually propose it.

And it’s at cost price!
Isn't this cheaper?

Seeing him like this, Zhao Ci immediately put on a weak posture: "Old uncle! Please treat me as a nephew, those young men really need your guidance!"

First, they used a strong stance to buy and sell at cabbage prices.

Then put on a weak stance and say nice things.

Who can withstand this push and pull?
Xiang Yunduan immediately pretended to be helpless: "Okay! The main thing is to look at your face. It wouldn't work for anyone else!"

Hey!
Life is not easy.

Lao Xiang performs tricks.

"It's designated. What's the relationship between us?"

Zhao Ci smiled and said that the Xiang family's favors had to be sold anyway, so rather than letting Gu Xiangzhu sell them, it was better to sell them himself.

Although the operating rights belong to Gu Xiangzhu, there is no problem in forcibly allocating some orders by himself.

but……

Having alchemists all under the control of Gu Xiangzhu is not a good thing after all.

You have to find a way to dig out some of them and cultivate them into your own direct lineage, otherwise "Feng Ji's Notes" will be useless.

"It's almost there!"

Xiang Yunduan asked: "Where are those young men?"

Zhao Ci smiled and said: "They are in my Tenth Prince's Mansion, I will take you to see them!"

"it is good!"

Xiang Yunduan grabbed his neck: "When I give them instructions in the future, you will also be listening. By the way, let me see how well you have practiced your marksmanship. I heard someone said that you cut off a master's hand. Why don’t I believe it so much? It’s just a dirty trick!”

"Fart! I obviously won with my strength!"

"You just farted. How can I know your level?"

The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder and walked all the way to the backyard.

At this moment, the quasi-prefect of the Tenth Prince's Palace had already woken up and was practicing weapons in the yard.

Still quite diligent.

It’s okay if you don’t work hard!
Last night, they all refined a high-grade Qi training pill. The Qi was more abundant than ever before, and they needed to polish their bodies with high intensity in order to absorb the medicinal properties more thoroughly.
"Stop practicing!"

Zhao Ci raised his voice: "Let me introduce to you, this is my uncle, General Xiang Yunduanxiang. From now on, he will be your instructor!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

They looked at each other in disbelief.

They have heard of this name!
Although he doesn't remember the specific achievements, he was the true right-hand man of the loyal marquis Xiang Tiange, and he had the rank of general.

If it weren't for Zhao Ci, they might never be able to come into contact with a master of this level in their lifetime.

Especially for someone like Xiang Yunduan, whose abilities were all gained from fighting in mountains of corpses and seas of blood, this was the goal they pursued.

"Meet General Xiang!"

"Meet General Xiang!"

"Meet General Xiang!"

Everyone bowed together, wishing they could bend more than ninety degrees.

Xiang Yunduan waved his hand: "I have stepped down as a general for more than ten years. Don't call me that in the future. Just call me Instructor Xiang. In the army in the past, apart from charging into battle, I didn't develop any other skills, so The only person who can guide you is killing skills. Zhao Ci, come here!"

"Instructor Xiang, please give your orders!"

"Pick up your gun and let me kill you once!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Ci responded, directly picked up his own special spear, and held a spear towards Xiang Yunduan from a distance.

Xiang Yunduan: "???"

This gun... looks familiar!
Hey!
Isn't this the shot I hit?
350 pounds, how come you are treated like a toy by this bastard?
and many more!

It doesn't seem right!
Xiang Yunduan's head was a little down. Why was it that he couldn't lift it a few days ago and suddenly felt so relaxed?
this shit...

What kind of meat is it?
good boy!
It’s really hidden so deeply!
Even from me, your uncle?
Xiang Yunduan was furious, and with a volley of his right hand, he drew a spear and rushed towards Zhao Ci.

"Eat me a shot!"

"..."

The sound of swords clashing in the ten princes' palaces continued from morning to noon.

Near noon, Zhao Ci left the palace cursing.

I thought that there was really no martial ethics in this game. In order to establish my image as an iron-blooded instructor, I would torture myself to death if I was caught. Especially after I found out that my marksmanship was very good, I would not hold back.

Just like Te Niang’s revenge person!
This morning, I was beaten very badly!
But it was good to be beaten. Although I had already mastered the marksmanship, I had too little actual combat experience. There would definitely be a lot of benefits from being abused by Xiang Yunduan more often.

But this kind of thing still cannot be overdrawn.

To work and rest.

Let’s make a loving lunch for my little girl!
People who don't work hard can only be puppies.

Just pay attention to everything.

to get milk.

……

Royal study.

Zhao Huan put down the memorial and looked at the young man next to him.

"really?"

"really!"

The young man nodded solemnly: "I was still doubtful last night, but after watching His Highness and General Xiang fight just now, I can almost conclude that His Highness's body is at least the second grade, and may even be above the second grade!"

This young man's name is Zhao Qing, and he is an expert in the Zongren Mansion responsible for supervising the Ten Princes' Mansion.

Whether it is the account books of Xingyu Danhui or the people who interact with Zhao Ci, they are all under his close surveillance.

Everyone knows he exists.

It’s just not easy to expose.

"hiss……"

Zhao Huan was also a little surprised, because Zhao Ci grew up under his nose. Doesn't he know how strong he is?

Second-grade meat...

This is simply alarmist!

But the Zongren Mansion has no reason to lie to itself.

Is there anything in this that I don't know about?

If I remember correctly, Zhao Ci's breakthrough was the result of Gu Xiangzhuhu's method.

What methods did this woman use?
And why help Zhao Ci?

Something seems wrong.

Zhao Qing couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty! Your Royal Highness has made rapid progress, but you have provided undue help?"

This tone is full of doubts.

In government disputes, the clan government is the authority, and even the emperor cannot break the rules of government disputes.

Zhao Huan's face froze, he was still confused, why did you question me?

He smiled and said: "The only help I provided was to reward him with a low-grade Emperor's Pill, which was agreed by the Zongren Mansion. Although the resources in the palace can be mobilized, Gu was also under the supervision of the Zongren Mansion. Even the private treasury resources are registered in the Zongren Mansion, what do you think Gu did for him?"

The emperor justified himself to his ministers, which seemed ridiculous to say.

But it is not unusual at all when it comes to government strife, because it is related to domestic stability, and the fate of a country must not be affected by the emperor's likes and dislikes.It can even be said that when it comes to government disputes, even the emperor must be supervised.

When the four princes refused to enter the clan's mansion, the emperor was attacked by a group of senior officials from the clan's mansion.

If it weren't for the clan's order to mediate and the clan elders' approval, the fourth prince would still have to be carried into the clan's mansion even if the emperor liked it again.

Zhao Qing, however, remained unyielding: "Your Majesty! His Royal Highness invited General Xiang to train government officials. Although General Xiang no longer has any actual position, he cannot be hired in the name of 'wine refining foreman'. This loophole cannot be exploited." .”

Zhao Huan had a headache and looked at Eunuch Li who was standing aside: "My eldest companion, go and call that brat Ci'er over."

"Yes!"

Eunuch Li smiled in his heart. The only person in the whole Yu who dared to embarrass the emperor face to face was probably the Zongren Mansion.

Zhao Huan smiled faintly at Zhao Qing, then picked up the memorial and continued to review it.

But he never thought that Eunuch Li would come in with Zhao Ci not long after. "My son, I pay my respects to my father!"

"Ok?"

Zhao Huan was a little surprised: "Why did you come so soon?"

Zhao Ci curled his lips: "Go back to the emperor! I was about to go to Wangshu Palace and happened to meet Eunuch Li."

"I see!"

Zhao Huan's eyes flashed. In the past, Gu Xiangzhu regarded Zhao Ci as a burden and always ignored him whenever he could. However, it seems that since the emergence of the wine refining technique, he summoned Zhao Ci to Wangshu Palace every now and then.

Judging from Zhao Ci's reaction, this temporary mother-son relationship seems to be quite effective.

This woman does have some tricks up her sleeve.

He smiled: "I heard that you asked your uncle to train government officials?"

"Yes!"

Zhao Ci glanced at Zhao Qing and already understood what he meant, so he said directly: "I promised Xingyu Pill to supply Xiang's Qi Training Pill consumption in Linge at cost price, in exchange for the opportunity for my uncle to train the officials, Qing Does the deacon think it’s appropriate?”

"This……"

Zhao Qing originally looked prepared, but when he heard this statement, he felt a little relieved.

If it is this price, it makes sense. Although it is not much for Xingyu Danhui, it is a good business for Xiang.

He smiled and nodded: "Of course it is appropriate, but I would also like to ask Your Highness to sign a written contract with the Xiang family so that I can report it to the Clan Mansion. In addition, Your Highness is such a meathead..."

Zhao Huan also leaned forward slightly and looked at Zhao Ci with interest.

He was also very curious about this matter.

"Oh!"

Zhao Ci nodded: "You are talking about my first-class body!"

Zhao Qing: "..."

Zhao Huan: "..."

Several?
How many?

A first-rate meat?
Zhao Ci looked curious: "What's your expression? I thought you already knew!"

As he said that, he directly activated his own Qi.

In an instant, powerful zhenqi surged out from his dantian and filled his whole body.

In just a blink of an eye, his height suddenly increased by a few points, and his figure became much straighter. Although he did not look as exaggerated as Xiang Yunduan, his whole body was still full of wild and untamable aura.

The muscles and skin are like translucent topaz, filled with a vast but luxurious aura.

First-class meat!
Moreover, it is a first-grade body that can only be molded by perfecting the Body Refining Chapter of the Huangji Body Refining Art.

Zhao Qing: "..."

Zhao Huan: "..."

The two looked at each other and found that the other's pupils were a little dilated.

This……

How long has it been since the Zhao family had a first-grade meat soul?

They all practiced the Emperor's Body Refining Art, so they naturally knew how difficult it was to cultivate this profound ancient book to the state of perfection.

Moreover, even if you practice to the realm of perfection, you may not be able to mold a first-grade body. Even if you get the Emperor's Pill, it still depends on your luck.

Their throats were twitching, but their throats felt a little dry.

Zhao Ci looked puzzled: "Is it difficult?"

Zhao Qing: "???"

Zhao Huan: "???"

Ah!
A group of turtles.

Zhao Ci is not afraid of being exposed, because he is very sure that replacing the Zang Secret Code can only replace the internal organs and divine patterns. The physical divine patterns and the spiritual platform divine patterns are definitely safe, and it will be useless no matter how greedy Lao Deng is.

In this case, it is better to expose it earlier, so as not to hide it and arouse suspicion.

Moreover, he didn't have much idea about the elixir for strengthening muscles and bones, so he just wanted to ask Lao Deng.

"Leave!"

Zhao Huan's voice was trembling: "How did you get your body and soul? Why are you telling me now?"

He felt something bad in his heart. He knew about Zhao Ci's breakthrough before, but he didn't pay much attention to the result of the breakthrough.

The result...a first grade?
This level was achieved by Gu Xiangzhu, the fake protector.

broken!

I became a fake dad.

"Oh! That's it..."

Zhao Ci then told Gu Xiangzhu the reason why he made it up that night, and at the end he added with a solemn expression: "My mother didn't know that the magical thing could really work, and she told me not to be proud, because it was My first-class body was earned through hardships in my youth, so I should encourage myself rather than be proud of myself."

"hiss……"

Zhao Huan secretly took a breath of cold air and felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He felt that he didn't know his son as well as he thought.

The true energy is so pure that it can even be explained by the Yingzhou divine object.

But Xiang's solid marksmanship can only be explained by hard work. After all, even Zhao Qing couldn't help but praise the marksmanship. Although he only displayed basic marksmanship, but with such a solid foundation, his future martial arts attainments will definitely not be the same. Probably weak.

But I don't know.

On the other hand, Gu Xiangzhu...

broken!

The pattern of this witch is rising!
Ci'er is a child who has always been innocent in front of his parents. Hearing these words, he still worships this fake mother and concubine to death?

It's really stinky and shameless.

He actually said that the divine object of Yingzhou Immortal Island was his own credit?
Doesn’t this make me, my biological father, stupid?
His scalp felt a little numb.

then……

[Zhao Huan’s current wish]: To regain Ci’er’s admiration.Reward for wish completion: Comprehension value +100, Empathy Talisman X1.

Saw this subtitle.

Zhao Ci couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

I thought that I had made the right gamble by taking the risk and forcing myself to retain my wine refining skills.

By retaining the initiative to pull, you can benefit from both sides.

Zhao Qing, however, has not yet recovered from the shock: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! There really is such a divine creature in Yingzhou Immortal Island. It is unheard of to be humble!"

Implant the Dantian to swallow the true energy, and then return it all when the breakthrough is made.

This divine object is simply a treasure for cultivating the physical body!
Zhao Huan smiled and waved his hand: "I have never heard of it before, but since it is an artifact from Yingzhou Fairy Island, it is normal for it to be magical. Deacon Qing, this artifact was something that existed before Ci'er opened his mansion. It should be Doesn’t it violate the rules of the sect’s mansion?”

"No violation, no violation!"

Zhao Qing shook his head repeatedly, then cupped his hands and said: "Since the matter has been resolved, I will resign from my humble position!"

Zhao Ci reminded: "Deacon Qing, you have to keep my strength a secret first!"

"You should! Farewell!"

Zhao Qing cupped his hands and quickly left the imperial study room.

soon.

I was the only one left in the imperial study room.

Zhao Huan looked at Zhao Ci lovingly: "Ci'er, what your mother and concubine said is certainly true, but you must not belittle yourself as a human being. Since you have become a first-class body, you must have the awareness to be a strong person! You don't have to be arrogant. , but you must have pride!”

When Zhao Ci heard this, he immediately looked like he had learned something: "I will obey my father's teachings!"

He stared at the subtitles on Zhao Huan's head.

Found it flashing faster and faster.

It was obvious that Zhao Huan was extremely eager to regain his son's admiration.

In this case.

Then don't blame me for acting.

Zhao Ci's brows drooped and his expression became anxious.

Zhao Huan's eyes narrowed: "Ci'er, why are you worried?"

"Ugh……"

Zhao Ci let out a long sigh: "Father! In fact, I also want to be strong, but there are still many obstacles in front of me. My mother-in-law said that this body is the product of my hard work, and it relies on Only with Huangji Dan could he achieve this.

When it comes time to change your muscles and strengthen your bones later on, you may not be so lucky.

The child checked the information and found that a person can only use one pill of Huangji Pill in his lifetime.

There is no clue about the elixir that can replace the Huangji Dan to strengthen the muscles and bones.

When the time comes to change my muscles and forge my bones, I'm afraid..."

He didn't continue to speak down.

Leave enough room for Zhao Huan to react.

The fact is indeed as he said. Among the eight major families, except for the Zhao family and the Xiang family, they actually don't pay special attention to the physical body, because they believe that with the same resources, the benefits of practicing Five Elements spells are greater.

Therefore, correspondingly, the resource investment in physical cultivation is not that high.

The three major elixir families all have elixirs that specifically assist in refining the body, muscles, and bones. The effects are quite good, and qualified disciples within the clan can generally obtain them.

But compared to the Huangji Pill, especially the high-grade Huangji Pill, it is really useless.

It's all this broken system's fault.

I have raised my pleasure threshold!
He just stared at Zhao Huan, his eyes full of expectation.

Zhao Huan was a little uncomfortable being stared at. He struggled for a while and finally couldn't stand the earnest gaze, so he spoke slowly.

"Ci'er! I shouldn't tell you this kind of thing originally, but it concerns your future, so as a father, I can only make an exception."

Zhao Ci: "..."

I'm such a scheming boy.
