Pill Pagoda Revisited
After Long Chen chose the Hornless Dragon Sword, he also chose six other swords that were not of low quality.
Finally, his gaze stopped at the ancient spirit sword.
The spirit sword's runes were all broken, almost to the point of being unrecognizable. But it was this sword that had attracted so many people to fight over it.
"This sword, I wonder if I can take it …" Long Chen asked.
Although this sword was broken, so many people fought over it. This was enough to prove its value, so Long Chen asked Qin Qing again.
Qin Qing stared at Long Chen. Long Chen had solved dozens of Blood Devouring Arrays, which gave him a great shock. He was also full of curiosity towards Long Chen.
After a moment of silence, to Long Chen's surprise, Qin Qing replied in front of the few of them, "This sword is originally a broken item. It's a pity that many people in the outside world don't believe it. Moreover, they think that the so-called broken Ancient Spirit Sword is news that we deliberately spread … If you want to take it away, you can."
Long Chen also didn't think that things would go so smoothly. But soon after, he felt relieved. The sword's runes were broken, and the sword's body was also rotten. It could be said that it was a useless sword.
On the other hand, he also felt Qin Qing's goodwill. Being able to solve the Blood Devouring Array made this Black Dragon Empire's emperor look at him in a new light.
Long Chen didn't try to be pretentious. He directly broke the formation and took the long sword.
Qin Lie saw that Long Chen had finally taken all the rewards. Looking at Ou Yezi's gloomy eyes, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. He walked forward and said, "Father, since Long Chen has finished choosing, I'll take him away. In a few days, he still has to participate in the military exercise …"
When Qin Qing heard that the military exercise wasn't going to happen, he raised his eyebrows and looked deeply at Long Chen. He waved his hand, indicating that the two of them should leave.
After Long Chen and Qin Lie left, Ou Yezi's face was very ugly. Looking at the broken Blood Devouring Arrays in front of him, he felt a burning pain on his face.
…
After Long Chen and Qin Lie left, he held the letter of appointment in his hand and, with Qin Lie's help, selected eight thousand soldiers from the army stationed outside the Imperial Capital.
According to Long Chen's request, these eight thousand men were all heavy cavalry.
According to the rules of the Imperial Capital, although Long Chen held the rank of Major General, he had not participated in any military exercises. Therefore, he was not allowed to lead the army into the Imperial Capital.
If he wanted to enter the Imperial Capital, he would have to pass the military exercise and enter as a guest of the Third Prince.
This was also the reason why the princes were so concerned about the Intermediate and Advanced students of the Royal School. The private armies of these students were, in a way, the fighting power of the princes.
In the campsite.
Long Chen was in his tent, and the eight chiliarchs looked at the young man in front of them. Although there were many intermediate or advanced students from the Royal Academy who had become major generals, and many who had led private armies to become honorary officials, this young man was too young …
"I have already written down what you need to do for the next six days. After this, I will need to go into seclusion. Do not disturb me with anything." Long Chen bent over the table and stood up, then turned and walked out of the tent.
Just as he was about to walk out of the tent, he suddenly turned around and said coldly, "If by the time I return, there is anything that is not up to standard, kill without mercy!"
The relaxed expressions of the eight chiliarchs immediately froze. The coldness in Long Chen's eyes caused them to tremble.
After Long Chen left, the chiliarchs immediately began to discuss.
"How can this Major General be so young? And this is too irresponsible … "One of the chiliarchs said suspiciously.
"Although the hedonistic disciples from the Royal School were the same as him in the past, this is the first time I've seen someone who doesn't even care about the military exercise."
"Forget it, we'll just do as he says. When the time comes, if the military exercise fails, his Major General rank will naturally be stripped. We'll just take it as a holiday."
As they spoke, they walked towards the table at the back of the tent. There were all kinds of requirements left by Long Chen on it. It was the size of the table.
Although they had some opinions about Long Chen, they did not dare to disobey Long Chen's orders. After all, he was still a Major General at the moment. If he really disobeyed, he would be beheaded.
…
On the other side, after Long Chen left, he directly returned to the Pill Pagoda in the Imperial Capital.
As soon as Long Chen walked into the Pill Pagoda, he heard a big piece of news. It was that Cheng Kai broke into the General Zhenyuan Mansion and killed more than ten Semi-God Realm warriors.
However, Cheng Kai and more than ten Semi-God Realm warriors he led were all killed in one night. It was said that they were all killed by the Zhenyuan General alone!
At this time, Liu Cang Lan had specially entered the Imperial Palace to report this matter and drew a clear line between himself and Cheng Kai.
When Long Chen heard this news, he secretly thought that Cheng Kai was really a little crazy because of Cheng Qi's matter. However, although Cheng Qi's death was related to him, he was still caught in his own trap. He did not feel the slightest bit of psychological pressure.
On the other hand, he was also surprised by the strength of the Zhenyuan General, Xie Jiushan. He secretly thought that it would be best if Xie Jiushan appeared in the military exercise a few days later. If he could rely on the 8,000 heavy armored cavalry to eliminate this big hidden danger, it would save him a lot of trouble.
When he stepped into the sixth floor of the Pill Pagoda, Liu Cang Lan came up to him and stared at Long Chen. His face was quite kind and even a little rosy.
"Brother Long, quickly follow me to the seventh floor!" Liu Cang Lan called out.
Long Chen was stunned and secretly wondered why Liu Cang Lan was so excited. The spirit rank alchemists around them all looked sideways and stared at Long Chen in confusion.
Liu Cang Lan was the master of the Pill Pagoda and the strongest king rank alchemist in the Black Dragon Empire's Alchemist Guild. How could he be brothers with this young man who was not even twenty years old?
Liu Cang Lan ignored the gazes of the crowd and pulled Long Chen directly to the seventh floor of the Pill Pagoda. At this moment, dozens of people were gathered in front of a pill room on the seventh floor of the Pill Pagoda and were discussing spiritedly.
After Liu Cang Lan arrived, the crowd immediately parted to make a path. "Congratulations President, Yiyi has already refined a sub-king rank pill. I'm afraid that she will step into the king rank and become a grandmaster alchemist in a few months!"
"President, you have taught her well. Yiyi is even more talented. Once she breaks through, she will be the youngest king rank alchemist!"
…
When Long Chen heard this, he finally understood why Liu Cang Lan was so excited. He did not expect that Liu Cang Lan would be able to refine a sub-king rank pill in such a short time.
"Little Master, you're here!" Liu Yi Yi dragged her loose alchemist robe and immediately greeted Long Chen when she saw him. Her innocent face was full of excitement. "Yiyi can refine a crack pill and a sub-king rank pill!"
As she spoke, she took out an azure pill in her right hand. There were two cracks on it and an extremely weak crimson aura surrounded it.
If this aura was a little stronger, or if there were two more cracks, perhaps this pill could directly reach the king rank …
