Magic City was indeed worthy of being the most prosperous city of the Blue Eyes Clan. Now that it was the capital of the True Devil Empire, there was no need to mention the degree of prosperity.
However, behind this prosperity, one could see many scenes that people did not want to see.
The situation was even more serious than when he was in the Divine Phoenix Empire. Here, it was completely normal to sell Sacred Dynasty humans as slaves.
On the road, there were even people who raised Sacred Dynasty human children as pets. If they were not obedient, they might even be thrown away.
This scene made Ling Xiao determined to destroy the True Devil Empire.
Not only because of the previous personal grudges, but also because the True Devil Empire was really not a good thing.
An empire that did not treat people as people, what was the use of it?
On the Northern Han side, someone had already sent a letter. It was believed that in a few days, they would launch an attack at the same time.
With this pincer attack, it would be very easy to win while the True Devil Empire was not yet stable.
These years, the True Devil Empire had offended many people.
Where there was oppression, there was resistance.
In the entire Magic City, there was only one Alchemist Association.
The Alchemist Association was probably the most incompatible place with the Blue Eyes Clan's buildings.
It was a typical building of the Holy Dynasty, with a quaint courtyard. Even from far away, one could smell the fragrance of herbs.
Many martial artists liked to take a walk here, for no other reason than to be able to breathe the special air here.
Above the Alchemist Association's gate was a plaque that did not look so eye-catching. On it were the words "Alchemist Association" written in green.
It was also in the language of the Sacred Dynasty.
Although the Sacred Dynasty had declined, the language of the Sacred Dynasty was the only common language in the Mystic World.
"Is this the Alchemist Association?"
Ling Xiao walked to the door very politely, bowed to the two guards, and then asked.
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
The guard glanced at Ling Xiao's attire indifferently. Although he did not drive him away, he looked a little indifferent.
Instead, he took a few more glances at the Moon Lady beside Ling Xiao.
After all, everyone liked beautiful women.
"Cough cough, I'm here to obtain the Alchemist certification."
Ling Xiao really regretted bringing the Moon Maiden out. He coughed dryly and said.
"Sure, but the Apothecary Association has a rule that you must have a recommendation letter from a yellow-level apothecary. Take it out if you have it."
The guard said calmly.
"Recommendation letter?"
Ling Xiao was stunned. He had never been to the Apothecaries' Association before, so he didn't know that there was such a requirement. He felt a little helpless.
Just as he was about to speak, he was pushed aside by a figure.
"Get out of my way if you don't have a recommendation letter. Don't block my way."
The one who spoke was a young woman around eighteen or nineteen years old. She was quite pretty, but compared to the Moon Maiden, she was like heaven and earth.
Ling Xiao was a little unhappy, but he was not angry. He was just a little unhappy to be pushed away like this.
Just as he was about to say two.
An old man walked over and said, "Little brother, don't be angry. This granddaughter of mine just can't change her bad temper. I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao's anger dissipated instantly. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's not a big deal."
He noticed the badge that the old man was wearing. He should be a yellow-level apothecary issued by the Apothecary Association.
This standard was considered top-notch in the Sky Dragon Continent and the Divine Phoenix Continent.
"Grandpa, what are you talking to him about? He doesn't even have a recommendation letter and he wants to enter the Apothecary Association. I think he's planning to steal something, right?"
The young woman said disdainfully.
"Shut up!"
The old man said angrily, "I've told you many times. Learn to be more reserved when you're outside. Don't do to others what you don't want done to you. What would you do if someone did this to you?"
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? You've never scolded me before. "
The young woman was a little confused.
"Just shut up when I tell you to."
The old man looked at the Moon Maiden with a little panic, then said to Ling Xiao, "I'm sorry, little brother."
Ling Xiao understood that the reason why the old man was so polite to him was not because of him, but because he was frightened by the Moon Maiden.
"Old mister, even if I'm just an ordinary person, your granddaughter's actions are extremely inappropriate. Perhaps you can protect her when she's by your side, but when she's outside and you're not by her side, aren't you afraid that she'll get into trouble? "
Ling Xiao's words were a little harsh.
That woman had made him unhappy time and time again. With his personality, it was already good enough that he did not make a move.
"What did you say! Do you know who my grandpa is? How dare you talk to him like that! "
The young woman shouted, "My grandpa is one of the only two yellow-level apothecaries in the Apothecary Association! He's the famous Master Tie Mu! "
Ling Xiao looked at the young woman and said calmly, "It's admirable that you're a yellow-level apothecary, but that's your grandpa's honor. What do you count for? Looking at you, you don't even have a grade, do you? "
Although this young woman had looks that would definitely attract men, it was useless to Ling Xiao.
With such a beautiful woman by his side, how could he be interested in this young woman?
"Listen carefully, my name is Tie Yun Shan. I came here from Five Immortal Island with my grandpa. Although I'm not an upper-grade apothecary now, I'll be one soon."
Tie Yun Shan listened and said proudly, "Today I'm here to take the low-level yellow-level apothecary exam!"
"Master Tie Mu is indeed Master Tie Mu. Miss Tie Yun Shan is only eighteen years old this year, but you're already taking the exam to become a yellow-level apothecary. This makes many of your peers feel ashamed."
One of the guards said with a smile.
This flattery came at the right time.
"Hehe, at least you know how to talk. If I pass the exam today, I'll definitely reward you with enough money for wine. Grandpa, let's go in quickly. Don't waste time here."
Tie Yun Shan turned around and looked at Ling Xiao.
She realized that Ling Xiao was quite handsome and seemed to be quite strong. But so what? As long as she became a yellow-level apothecary, she could hire a lot of martial artists like Ling Xiao for free.
"Young man, we'll go in first."
The old man's attitude was quite good from the beginning. This didn't make Ling Xiao angry. He just felt that the girl named Tie Yun Shan was a little naughty.
"Sister Yuenü, I'm really lucky that you're by my side today. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened."
Ling Xiao sighed. Indeed, strength was still very important to a martial artist.
After speaking, he looked at the two guards and said, "I don't have a recommendation letter with me. Can I use other methods to enter the Apothecary Association?"
"There is. Unless you can refine a low-level yellow-level pill on the spot, or you have one of the twelve sacred flames."
The guard said with disdain.
Perhaps in their opinion, Ling Xiao didn't have such ability.
