The journey was peaceful, but when Su Xin returned to Shengjing, everyone was stunned. No one expected Su Xin to be so fast. It didn't take long for him to get the Spirit Concentrating Flower of Medicine King Valley.
Did Medicine King Valley take the wrong medicine? Or were they really so cowardly that they handed over the item when the imperial court came?
However, Ji Haodian laughed out loud when he heard the news. "Good! As expected of the person I think highly of. This Su Xin is indeed my loyal subject. He does things efficiently. Go, call Su Xin over immediately. "
Tang Xian, who was at the side, hurriedly went to pass the order, but he had a bad feeling in his heart. It was not because Su Xin had obtained Ji Haodian's favor, but because Ji Haodian had become more and more temperamental recently.
Previously, Ji Haodian was still worried that Su Xin would have an accident when he went to get the Spirit Concentrating Flower. He deliberately inserted Nan Heng into Su Xin's team, making it clear that he did not trust Su Xin.
If it were in the past, Ji Haodian would never do such a thing. Even if Ji Haodian wanted to plant a spy among his subordinates, he would not do it so obviously. This would only make his subordinates unhappy.
However, now that he heard that Su Xin had successfully brought back the Spirit Concentrating Flower, the original distrust immediately disappeared. Su Xin became his loyal subject again.
Ji Haodian's style made Tang Xian extremely uncomfortable. He had served Ji Haodian all his life, but it was the first time he was so tired.
At this time, when Su Xin had just entered the city, he saw Tang Xian guarding the door.
"Lord Su, His Majesty wants you to enter the palace as soon as possible."
Su Xin nodded and said, "Just as well. We are also preparing to hand over the order as soon as possible. Eunuch Tang, how are Lord Lin Zongyue and Lord Ji Xuanyuan?"
Tang Xian smiled and said, "Lord Ji Xuanyuan's side is easy to deal with. With his strength, he would have already found a Harmonious Soul Realm expert to cripple his cultivation.
There was no movement from Lord Lin Zongyue's side. After all, he wanted to head to the Square Immortal Island where the Square Immortal Dao Sect was located. Therefore, it took a long time and he probably hadn't arrived yet.
Lord Su did a great job this time. It only took him such a short time to finish off the Medicine King Valley. Good move. "
Su Xin shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Where did this trick come from? It's not like you don't know Eunuch Tang from the Medicine King Valley. I can't beat him, but I can only scare him. This time, I also used both carrot and stick. In the end, I didn't let the Medicine King Valley suffer a loss, so I got the Spirit Congealing Flower. "
After entering the palace, the first thing Ji Haodian said was, "Where's the Spirit Congealing Flower? Let me have a look? "
Sun Buhai immediately handed the Spirit Congealing Flower to Tang Xian. He let Tang Xian hold the metal box and let Ji Haodian see the Spirit Congealing Flower inside. Only then did he feel relieved.
While instructing someone to keep the Spirit Congealing Flower, Ji Haodian then turned his gaze to Su Xin, Sun Buhai, and the rest.
Tang Xian first said to Sun Buhai, "Master Sun, it's been hard on you. Don't worry, after this matter is done, I will not treat you badly.
Moreover, your Left Dao Alliance will be an ally of my Zhou Kingdom. My Zhou Kingdom will not ask you to do anything, but as long as you can research something valuable, my Zhou Kingdom will definitely not treat you badly. "
Sun Buhai thought about it and revealed a hint of joy in his eyes. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Su Xin, who was at the side, watched everything without saying a word. Although Ji Haodian was a little abnormal because of the secret technique of immortality, as long as it didn't involve that, Ji Haodian was still the scheming Human Emperor of the Zhou Kingdom.
In the past, the Zhou Kingdom did not pay attention to the Left Dao Alliance. In the eyes of the Zhou Kingdom, this alliance formed by over ten abandoned disciples of the eight heterodox sects was at most a group of stray dogs working together to protect themselves. It was not a big deal.
However, today, he realized that the Left Dao Alliance was not simple. They were able to research so many powerful secret techniques even without the support of the eight heterodox sects. They were definitely worth investing in.
Moreover, he did not directly recruit the people of the Left Dao Alliance. This was because Ji Haodian knew that they would definitely not agree.
The people of the Left Dao Alliance had very strange personalities. Each of them had their own pursuits and would definitely not be willing to listen to the orders of others.
Moreover, if they really wanted to seek shelter, the Nine Hells would have already opened their doors to them.
Therefore, Ji Haodian did not force them to join the Zhou Kingdom. He only promised that the Zhou Kingdom would give them all kinds of resources. However, they would have to hand over the things they researched to Zhou Kingdom.
This was what Sun Buhai and the others were most satisfied with. When they had enough resources to squander, they would undoubtedly be able to research many things that they did not dare to experiment in the past.
Moreover, they would not suffer a loss if they handed over the things they researched to Zhou Kingdom.
After all, they were like this in the past. When they researched strange things or secret techniques, they would ask the Nine Hells for a price and ask if they would buy them. After all, they would definitely sell the results of their research in exchange for various resources.
Now, Zhou Kingdom had promised to give them resources first, and then they would hand over the results of their research to Zhou Kingdom. Sun Buhai and the others were, of course, happy.
Therefore, this was a win-win situation. Anyway, Zhou Kingdom would not suffer a loss. Moreover, he was now preparing to let Sun Buhai and the others use secret techniques to transplant their primordial spirits into him. At this time, if Sun Buhai and the others submitted to him, they would undoubtedly put in more effort when they took action.
At this moment, Ji Haodian turned his gaze to Su Xin. He said with a smile, "Su Xin, I did not misjudge you. You are my loyal subject. Among the younger generation of the Zhou Kingdom, only you can shoulder the responsibility alone.
Tell me, how did you get the Spirit Concentrating Flower from the Medicine King Valley this time? "
Su Xin did not hide anything. He only explained the process in detail. He also explained the origin of the Superior Dark Clouds Immortal Flower very clearly. It was something he had obtained when he had helped the Heroes' Club attack the Deity Dao Union.
Now that Ren Pingsheng was a member of the Hades, Su Xin was not worried that he would be exposed no matter how he tried to make up stories.
In the end, Su Xin said very "sincerely", "Actually, I was prepared to give this Superior Dark Clouds Immortal Flower to Your Majesty. However, I heard that Your Majesty found the secret technique of longevity, so I did not take it out to embarrass myself."
Although Su Xin's words seemed very sincere, no one present took them seriously.
Moreover, regardless of whether Ji Haodian took it seriously or not, the most important thing was that Su Xin showed a good attitude. Therefore, Ji Haodian said directly, "Tang Xian, later, take Su Xin to the Treasure House in the palace and let Su Xin choose a few things. The value must be greater than this Superior Dark Clouds Immortal Flower. I never have the habit of letting my subjects suffer losses."
Tang Xian nodded. He knew that Ji Haodian would do this. And Nan Heng, that idiot, really thought that he was His Majesty's confidant.
As long as Su Xin could successfully take back the Concentration Flower, Su Xin would be His Majesty's subject. His Majesty would not even think about killing Nan Heng.
Then, Ji Haodian's complexion suddenly changed. He said coldly, "Also, send an order to the Runan Military General Manager and the Runan Chief Constable. Tell them to stop the Shangguan Clan's business in Runan and teach them a lesson.
If they dare to use force, then don't worry. Tell them directly that the Shangguan family is not qualified to intervene in the affairs of the imperial court! "
Normally, Ji Haodian would never care about this kind of thing. After all, the Shangguan family was ranked second among the Six Great Families. They were not to be trifled with.
But now, Shangguan Feiyun intervened in his grand plan of longevity. If it were not for Su Xin's powerful strength and the fact that he sent Fang Jiuyuan and Liu Wuqian, Su Xin might not have been able to get the Concentration Flower.
Therefore, this time, Ji Haodian was really angry. For Ji Haodian, anyone who dared to interfere with his grand plan of longevity was his enemy. Not to mention the Shangguan family of Runan, even if it was the Xiao family of Jiangnan, he would still take action, regardless of the consequences!
Su Xin lowered his head and did not speak, but he had some sympathy for Shangguan Feiyun.
In fact, he was the one who suffered an undeserved disaster this time. Originally, Shangguan Feiyun had always thought that it was Su Xin who fought with him in the Medicine King Valley. Moreover, even if it was the entire Six Fan School, the Shangguan family of Runan could not afford to offend them.
But this time, they had not only offended Su Xin and the Six Fan School, but also Ji Haodian. Even if they wanted to retaliate, it was useless, so they could only endure it obediently.
Just like the Xiao family of Jiangnan, the Xiao family dared to secretly provoke the Zhou Kingdom because they had the confidence to do so. Although they failed in the end, they still accepted their defeat and were sealed by the imperial court for several years.
This time, the Shangguan family was completely undeserved. Shangguan Feiyun, who caused all this and lost to Su Xin, would probably not have an easy time after returning to the Shangguan family.
Of course, all this had nothing to do with Su Xin. Sun Buhai and the others were invited into the palace to continue perfecting their secret technique of Spirit Transplantation, hoping to minimize the risk.
As for Su Xin, Tang Xian took Ji Haodian's warrant to the imperial court's treasury to choose some rare treasures.
The treasury of the Zhou Kingdom was built in the depths of the palace. Under normal circumstances, there were three groups of people guarding it. The outermost layer was the normal imperial guards, the second layer was the imperial court experts under Tang Xian, and the last layer was the experts of the imperial family's Hall of Consecration. The weakest of them was at the Harmonious God Realm.
With Ji Haodian's warrant, the three checkpoints were successfully released. Tang Xian took Su Xin along the passage to the underground. The last door was a huge bronze door full of runes. Even a warrior at the Yang Spirit Realm would not be able to open it by force.
Tang Xian stretched out his hand and pointed. A drop of blood splashed out from his index finger and imprinted on the bronze door. In this way, the bronze door slowly opened. However, it only opened a passage that could only allow one person to enter.
Tang Xian explained, "If you want to enter the treasure vault, you'll have to leave a drop of your blood behind. Only then will the array formation in the treasure vault acknowledge your existence. It can also track down who has entered the treasure vault during this period of time, as well as whether anyone has been unscrupulous and taken too many things. Therefore, Lord Su, you'll also have to leave a drop of your blood behind.
Su Xin nodded and also splashed out a drop of blood. Only then did the bronze door completely open.
