Wu Shattered Star River

As Yu Xi had expected, the envoy from Concubine Rong arrived the next day.

Immortal Lord Wu Yun led several Immortal Lords and Jiang Han to greet her. The envoy was a middle-aged woman from another race, with horns on her head and double pupils. Her eyes were dark yellow, and her cultivation realm was Immortal Venerable.

Her realm wasn't high, but she was Concubine Rong's special envoy, so her status was different.

Concubine Rong was one of the Jade Emperor's favorite concubines, with a noble status. Concubine Rong's father was also a very powerful Immortal Emperor, so Concubine Rong had a great influence in the Heavenly Court.

The special envoy was welcomed into the Lord's Mansion. She didn't act superior, always smiling and looking amiable. Moreover, she looked at Jiang Han with a hint of respect.

After entering the Lord's Mansion, the special envoy directly began to read out the imperial decree. Immortal Lord Wu Yun took the lead and knelt down on one knee, and Jiang Han helplessly followed suit.

The imperial decree was long and flowery, and in the end, Jiang Han was granted the title of Marquis.

Marquis of Divine Pills, with a rank of seventh grade.

The Heavenly Court had ranks, with ninth grade being the lowest and first grade being the highest. Granting Jiang Han a seventh-grade Marquis wasn't much.

But this was conferred by Concubine Rong, and the words "Divine Pills" were included, which was the greatest affirmation of his alchemy skills.

As soon as Immortal Lord Wu Yun heard this, a look of joy appeared on his face. He quickly said, "Jiang Han, quickly thank Concubine Rong and the special envoy."

Jiang Han didn't have much interest in this Marquis of Divine Pills. In the Lower Realm, he was still the Heavenly Chaos King. Moreover, this was conferred by the Heavenly Court. His father was the Heavenly Court's number one rebel. What use was it for the Heavenly Court to grant him the title of Ten Directions Heavenly Emperor?

However, since Immortal Lord Wu Yun had spoken, he still pretended to be grateful and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Concubine Rong. Thank you, Special Envoy."

The special envoy smiled slightly, walked up to Jiang Han, took out a ring, and said, "Inside this are the identity token of the Marquis of Divine Pills, the document of conferment, and some treasures, all of which are rewards from the Concubine. This time, you saved the head of the Yu family, and the Concubine is very happy."

Jiang Han accepted the ring with both hands, not daring to check it, and bowed again to express his gratitude.

The special envoy said with a smile, "These are just small rewards. The Concubine said that if you can cure the strange illness of Fairy Yinghuo, she will grant you a third-grade title!"

"Third grade…"

Immortal Lord Wu Yun and the other Immortal Lords exchanged glances, all secretly shocked.

Immortal Lord Wu Yun also had a title, and like Jiang Han, it was seventh grade. A third-grade title was generally only available to Immortal Kings, and with such a title, they could receive a lot of俸禄 (fèng lù, official salary) from the Heavenly Court every year.

Jiang Han smiled wryly and cupped his hands, saying, "Special Envoy, I only know how to refine some pills. As for curing diseases, that is not my forte."

"I once went to Yinghuo Star to participate in the Heavenly Pill Conference and refined the Dream Soul Pill and the Soul Separation Pill, but neither had any effect on Fairy Yinghuo's illness. I'm afraid I will disappoint the Concubine and the Special Envoy."

"It doesn't matter!"

The special envoy smiled and said, "Yu Xi has already told me about this. I heard that you are skilled in refining ancient and rare pills?"

"The Concubine has already arranged for people to search for strange ancient pill formulas. When some pill formulas are found, I will ask you to go to Yinghuo Star to help the fairy refine pills. Marquis of Divine Pills, are you willing?"

"Uh…"

Jiang Han felt a headache. Concubine Rong had rewarded him, and he was already becoming famous. Now he was going to help Fairy Yinghuo cure her illness?

If he really refined a rare pill and cured Fairy Yinghuo's strange illness, he would probably become famous all over the world, and it would be difficult not to attract attention.

But Fairy Yinghuo was the daughter of the Azure Emperor, and his father was from the Azure Emperor's faction, so she could be considered one of his own. If he could help her cure her strange illness and allow her to live a normal life, it would be a good thing.

Seeing the special envoy looking at him expectantly, Jiang Han could only cup his hands and say, "Since Concubine Rong has instructed me, how dare I not do my best?"

"Good!"

The special envoy nodded with satisfaction. She looked at Immortal Lord Wu Yun and said, "Lord Wu, when you find the pill formula, I will send someone to send a message. At that time, I will have to trouble you to escort the Marquis of Divine Pills to Yinghuo Star."

Immortal Lord Wu Yun cupped his hands and said, "This is the duty of your subordinate."

The special envoy didn't stay, and left directly after finishing her business.

Immortal Lord Wu Yun led Jiang Han and the others to see her off. After seeing off the special envoy, Immortal Lord Wu Yun led Jiang Han back to the Lord's Mansion.

As soon as they entered, Immortal Lord Wu Yun said with an excited face, "This Marquis of Divine Pills is a good title. With this title, anyone who wants to move you in the future will have to think twice."

"What's the use of a seventh-grade Marquis?"

Jiang Han blinked, not understanding.

"Hehe!"

Yu Xi walked out from a room next door and said, "It's not the rank that matters, it's who conferred it. At first, I thought Concubine Rong would only give you some rewards, or at most let Immortal Lord Wu Yun give you an official position, but I didn't expect her to grant you a title."

"That's right!"

Immortal Lord Wu Yun nodded and said, "Concubine Rong has a very large influence in the Heavenly Court, second only to the Holy Mother of Yaochi. How dare ordinary people touch the Marquis of Divine Pills conferred by her? That would be like slapping her face, understand?"

"I see!"

Jiang Han's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What kind of person is this Concubine Rong? What is her relationship with my father?"

Concubine Rong was the Jade Emperor's woman, so Jiang Han originally didn't like her very much. In his heart, the Jade Emperor was his family's enemy.

"She's a very good person!"

Yu Xi said, "Concubine Rong has a straightforward personality, with clear likes and dislikes, and values love and righteousness. Before entering the palace, she was the goddess in the hearts of countless men."

"Her relationship with your father should be okay, because Concubine Rong went to the army before entering the palace and fought under your father's command."

"In addition, Concubine Rong and Fairy Yue Tu are the best闺蜜 (guī mì, besties), and she also greatly admires the Azure Emperor."

"After Fairy Yue Tu died, she almost treated Fairy Yinghuo as her own daughter. Fairy Yinghuo's status is so detached, partly because of Concubine Rong."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han nodded slightly, his impression of Concubine Rong improving a lot. Although she was the Jade Emperor's woman, it seemed that her relationship with his father's faction was also good?

Yu Xi paused for a moment and said, "Jiang Han, when Concubine Rong finds some ancient pill formulas, you should do your best to refine them. If you can cure Fairy Yinghuo's illness, Concubine Rong will definitely be very grateful to you."

"As long as your identity is not exposed, you can walk sideways in the Heavenly Court, and ordinary people will definitely not dare to provoke you."

"Walk sideways…"

Jiang Han scratched his nose awkwardly. What would he do walking sideways? Did he think he had lived too long?

However, if he could really cure Fairy Yinghuo, he felt that he could help, after all, she was the daughter of the Azure Emperor.

Wu Yunxian's gaze turned to Yu Xi, and he asked, "Yu Xi, your family's old man has recovered, so his control over the Tianyin Pavilion should be greatly enhanced, right? Can you help me purchase a batch of fourth-order immortal beast essence blood? I need absolute confidentiality."

"Fourth-order immortal beast?"

Yu Xi glanced at Jiang Han, smiled, and said, "Through this wave of crisis, we have identified the character of many clansmen. Those fence-sitters will be purged a lot during this period, and those who are loyal will be promoted."

"The old man has survived, the Xing family dare not move, and it is estimated that they will retreat and cede a lot of benefits to our family."

"As for the fourth-order immortal beast essence blood, I will handle it myself, absolutely confidential, is 300,000 drops enough?"

Wu Yunxian's eyes lit up, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "Too much, I can't pay so many immortal stones for the time being, 100,000 drops will do."

"No need to pay!"

Yu Xi smiled and said, "Jiang Han saved my family's old man, which is equivalent to saving the lives of my entire family. These 300,000 drops of essence blood are considered a thank you gift from my Yu family."

"This… too much!"

Jiang Han was frightened, the last time Wu Yunxian bought 80,000 drops, it cost 500 billion immortal stones.

300,000 drops, wouldn't that be 2 trillion immortal stones? Yu Xi had already given him a dust-free stone, which was worth a lot, and now she was giving 300,000 drops of essence blood?

Yu Xi smiled sweetly, and suddenly transmitted a voice: "Compared to my family's old man's life, this is not much. If this old woman was not old and fading, afraid that you would dislike it, I would even want to pledge myself to you…"
