"That's good."
Lu Liu heaved a sigh of relief.
Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Looks like this kid has connections with the White Tiger Empire. I'm afraid this small Qin Tang Empire won't be able to keep him in the future."
"Aunt Mei, what do you mean?"
Lu Liu reacted quickly and immediately understood the meaning behind Aunt Mei's words.
"If Ning Qi really stole something from the ninth princess, they can just send someone. Why would they come personally? The ninth princess's age is opposite to Ning Qi's. I'm afraid the relationship between the two isn't that simple."
Aunt Mei said.
Sure enough, not long after, a Dou Huang came to the Hundred Herb Hall. Lu Liu immediately recognized him as one of the ninth princess's guards.
"Miss Lu Liu, our princess needs forty thousand sets of Spirit Raising Pills. When can you gather them?"
Deng San smiled and said.
"Forty thousand? Give me three days. "
Lu Liu thought for a while and said.
During the time when Ning Qi was not around, she had consciously stored up more than 20,000 sets of spirit herbs. Since the Ninth Princess had asked for them, she had to gather them even if she could not. She could only ask her father to transfer them to the Hundred Herbs Sect.
"Alright, thank you Miss Lu Liu. When the herbs are gathered, send them to the Dragon Slayer Hall. This is the deposit."
Deng San took out a greyish brown bag. It looked very ordinary, but it was made of unknown leather and passed it to Lu Liu.
"Spatial weapon?"
Lu Liu took a look and was immediately shocked.
Although the space inside the bag was not big, it was like a small room. Inside were neatly placed pieces of gold. There were about a few hundred thousand taels of gold.
"When the herbs are gathered, you can keep this Lower Grade Yellow Qiankun Bag. Think of it as the balance."
Deng San smiled.
"How can I do that? This spatial weapon is worth far more than a few million taels of gold."
Although Lu Liu really wanted such a spatial weapon, her professional ethics drove her to reject Deng San's suggestion.
Spatial weapons were priceless. Only a big country like the White Tiger Empire would be able to recruit blacksmiths who knew how to refine spatial weapons.
Deng San smiled and said, "Miss Lu Liu, please accept it. This is a token of the princess' appreciation."
"Lu Liu, how can you reject the princess' appreciation?"
Aunt Mei smiled.
"Then, Senior, please thank Her Royal Highness for me."
Lu Liu hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Alright, I'll tell the princess. I'll take my leave first."
Deng San nodded, cupped his hands, and left.
"Tsk tsk, the White Tiger Empire is really rich and overbearing, giving away a spatial battle tool just like that."
Auntie Mei went forward to take the bag and carefully examined it. There was a kind of energy on it that made her heart palpitate. She was afraid that this energy was where the mysteries of space lay!
"Aunt Mei, with this dimensional weapon, it will be much safer for Hundred Herb Hall to transport valuable spiritual herbs in the future."
Lu Liu said happily.
"You should keep it for your own use. If those old fellows of the Hundred Herb Sect find out, they will definitely ask you to take it out and offer it to the sect."
Aunt Mei shook her head.
"That's true."
Hearing this, Lu Liu nodded in agreement.
"I'm going to see Father and have him go to the Hundred Herb Sect to deliver the spirit herbs. Aunt Mei, help me keep an eye on Ning Qi. If there's any movement, inform me immediately."
Green Willow said.
"Okay, don't worry."
Aunt Mei nodded.
…
Outside the Imperial City.
A young eunuch sneakily ran out and headed straight for Chief Steward Ning, who was waiting anxiously. As he passed by him, a piece of paper flew out from his sleeve.
Steward Ning stretched out his hand and the piece of paper flew into his hand. When he opened it, his expression changed drastically.
"The Ninth Princess has moved to the Dragon Slayer Marquis's residence temporarily? What's going on?! "
Steward Ning's expression was incomparably gloomy as he hurried towards the Champion Marquis's residence.
When he returned to the Marquis's residence and reported the news to Nangong Yu 'er, the servants outside all heard the sound of Nangong Yu' er smashing her teacup.
"That bastard, how can he be fine? Damn it! "
Nangong Yu 'er sulked for a while, then tidied up her appearance and brought Little Yuan to the Nangong Residence to see Nangong Qixing, who had just returned.
"Big Brother, the Ninth Princess has moved to that bastard Ning Qi's residence temporarily."
Nangong Yu 'er said coldly.
Nangong Qixing nodded. "I already know."
"The Hundred Head Demon King Qiu Wanli, that old fellow, took my money but let Ning Qi come back alive. It's really hateful. I thought he was powerful, but now that Ning Qi has been back in the capital for so long, there's still no news of him! Why don't we make another trip to the Blood Slaughter Sect? "
Nangong Yu 'er immediately vented her anger on Qiu Wanli and cursed him viciously.
"We're not sure of Ning Qi's value in the Ninth Princess' eyes, so let's not act rashly for now."
Nangong Qixing said.
"Are we just going to watch that bastard strut around in front of us?"
Nangong Yu 'er said unwillingly.
"Let's wait. We're in the dark anyway, so there's nothing to be afraid of."
Nangong Qixing advised.
After a brief conversation, Nangong Yu 'er returned to the Dragon Slaying Marquis. She noticed that the servants and branch family disciples she met along the way all had strange gazes.
"Steward Ning, what's going on?"
Nangong Yu 'er looked for Steward Ning and asked coldly.
Steward Ning said with an ugly expression, "The entire Marquis's Residence knows that Ning Qi not only did not offend the Princess's Residence, but he has also become a Revered Alchemist of the Princess's Residence, and even …"
"Revered Alchemist? Even what? "
Nangong Yu 'er clenched her fists so tightly that her sharp nails nearly pierced into her flesh.
"There's even a rumor that Ning Qi is already an Alchemist Grandmaster."
Steward Ning said softly.
"Bullshit! Who dares to spread such a rumor? Capture me and bring me here. I want to ask him personally what is his purpose in doing all this? Is he trying to humiliate me? "
Nangong Yu 'er exploded like a stray cat whose tail had been stepped on.
Steward Ning's expression changed when he heard that. He said softly, "Madam! Be careful, the walls have ears! "
"What do you mean by walls have ears? Don't stop halfway. Who's the one who spread the rumor? "
Nangong Yu 'er snorted coldly.
"It's … it's from the Armor Removal Park …"
Steward Ning said softly.
"Old Master?"
Nangong Yu 'er's face turned pale.
If that was the case, then the rumor might be true!
"That bastard has become an Alchemist Grandmaster. Doesn't that mean that he's looking down on us …"
Nangong Yu 'er panicked. Seeing that, Steward Ning quickly comforted her, "Madam, don't worry. This matter has not been confirmed yet!"
"Go and find out more information for me! I want more accurate information! "
Nangong Yu 'er said sternly.
"Yes!"
… …..
"Let me out! Brother! Tong Tian! "
Tong Mansion.
Tong Yingkong shouted from the room.
