Rejoicing at Ning Qi's misfortune
He Song cleared his throat and looked at Ning Qi gloatingly. His lips curled into a smile as he announced, "The Hundred Herb Sect has ordered that from today onwards, the Dragon Slayer Marquis, Ning Qi will be banned. All elixirs and spiritual herbs are not to be traded with him. Anyone who disobeys this order will be treated as an enemy and killed!"
The court was in an uproar.
"I didn't expect this news to be true!"
"The Hundred Herb Sect's ban. Hahaha, Ning Qi deserves it. Previously, he joined forces with the Hundred Herb Hall to ban the Long Clan. Now, karma has come. I must inform Long Jiu Tian to return to the capital and make a comeback!"
"I heard that the Long Clan is doing very well in the Red Sun Empire. The Shenwu Public House must have played a part in this."
"This is a blessing in disguise. When the Long Clan returns to the capital, his business will cover both empires. I'm afraid the Shenwu Public House will benefit the most!"
"Let's see how the Dragon Slayer Marquis deals with this. Without spiritual herbs, his alchemy skills will be useless."
"From the looks of it, the Hundred Herb Sect is not simply banning him. As for whether they have any other plans, let's wait and see!"
"Your Majesty, how can the Hundred Herb Sect ban a marquis so easily! Ning Qi is not only the Dragon Slayer Marquis, he is also an alchemy grandmaster! I refuse to accept this! "
Suddenly, a different voice rang out in the court.
Ning Hong stood up angrily and retorted loudly.
He looked at He Song as if he was a demon from hell and wanted to devour his flesh!
Gnaw his bones!
Ning Qi's appearance allowed him to see hope for the Champion Marquis's Residence. With a few years of stability, surpassing the Shenwu Public House was only a matter of time. However, the Hundred Herb Sect suddenly wanted to ban Ning Qi. This was equivalent to banning the Champion Marquis's Residence. As the Champion Marquis, Ning Hong had no choice but to speak up!
"How dare you! What right does a mere Dou Ling have to speak up here? "
He Song stood up abruptly and sent a palm strike towards Ning Hong.
Purple fighting energy swept out like a violent storm. If Ning Hong was hit by this attack, he would most likely die on the spot!
Huangfu Zhengxiao and the others smiled. How could the Champion Marquis's Residence allow such an idiot to become the Master? At this time, not only did they not retreat, but they also wanted to face the Hundred Herb Sect head on?
In the next moment, Lin Tian's figure flashed and he appeared in He Song's path of attack. He dissipated He Song's attack with a single hand and his expression was somewhat ugly. "Grandmaster He, this is the imperial court. Everything is decided by His Majesty. If you dare to overstep your boundaries, don't blame me for being impolite."
"What a pity …"
He Song thought to himself. After that, a cold smile appeared on his face. "Then I'll see how you deal with this person. This person is from the Champion Marquis' Palace, right? Haha, he's from the same lineage as the Dragon Slayer Marquis, no wonder he's speaking up for him. If my Hundred Herb Sect doesn't have the right to kill someone, then who does? What a joke! "
"Seventh Uncle, are you alright?"
Ning Qi stepped forward and whispered.
A trace of lingering fear flashed in Ning Hongdu's eyes. He calmed himself down and said slowly, "I'm fine. I'm afraid there might be some trouble this time."
"Seventh Uncle, you don't have to worry about this, lest the Champion Marquis's Mansion gets into trouble. I can handle it myself."
Ning Qi whispered.
"Alright, I believe you."
Ning Hongdu looked at Ning Qi with a complicated expression.
After that, Ning Qi said to He Song, "You came here today to announce that I've been banned, right? If you're done, can I leave now? "
"Wait!"
He Song shouted coldly.
"What else is there?"
Ning Qi rolled his eyes.
"The Sovereign said that as long as you don't enter the Hundred Herb Sect, you'll be banned for another day. If you've thought it through, you can kowtow to him and he'll forgive you for your disrespect."
He Song sneered.
"Hahahahaha! Tell your Sovereign that I'll go find him when I've thought it through. "
Ning Qi laughed.
After that, he said to Qin Zheng, "Your Majesty, can I leave now? There are still a few dogs and chickens I haven't fed."
"Go."
Qin Zheng nodded and waved his hand.
"The Dragon Slayer Marquis is too prideful."
"Admit defeat and kowtow to the Hundred Herb Sect's Sovereign. Wouldn't it be nice to enter the Hundred Herb Sect?"
"I'm afraid he's panicking right now, but he's acting like he doesn't care on the surface. He doesn't know the power of the Hundred Herb Sect here."
"Have you all forgotten that he has the Ninth Princess of the White Tiger Empire behind him?"
An official who deeply admired Ning Qi couldn't help but speak up when the crowd ridiculed Ning Qi.
"Hahaha! Your news is too outdated. I heard that the Ninth Princess can't even protect herself. The Thirteenth Prince is not someone to be trifled with. Ning Qi killed so many of his Dou Huangs. Do you really think those are cats and dogs? "
"Hmph! Have you all forgotten that the Dragon Slayer Marquis is one of us! "
There was a moment of silence. Then …
"Hahaha!"
The crowd laughed loudly. The official covered his face and left in anger.
Qin Zheng sighed in his heart when he saw this scene. Ning Qi is a solitary subject, and such subjects are actually the ones that the Emperor can be the most at ease with. On the other hand, the Duke of Divine Martial, Huangfu Zhengxiao, has made friends with henchmen, and the objective in his heart is known to everyone.
Qin Zheng slowly stood up and smiled at He Song. "Please, Grandmaster He."
"I'll let you be arrogant for a while longer."
He Song laughed coldly in his heart. Because of Ning Qi, he hated Qin Zheng as well.
… …
"The Dragon Slayer Marquis has indeed been blacklisted by the Hundred Herb Sect. What a pity."
"As an alchemy grandmaster, he refused to accept the Hundred Herb Sect's recruitment. It's normal for him to be blacklisted. The main reason is that he has offended too many people."
"That's right."
That day, everyone in the capital heard of this news and began to discuss it in private.
Hundred Herb Hall.
Green Impermanence sighed. "There's no turning back."
"Without the Dragon Slayer Marquis's pills, the Hundred Herb Hall's branch in the Returning Ruins will have to be withdrawn. Otherwise, we won't have enough pills."
Lu Liu frowned.
"That's the only way."
Green Impermanence said in a low voice.
The Returning Ruins was an extremely large market. The competition there was fierce. Many first rate sects that were even stronger than the Hundred Herb Sect had sent people to the Returning Ruins. Whenever a rare treasure appeared, they would buy it. It was said that the master of the Returning Ruins was a Dou Zun! His cultivation was comparable to the Emperor of the White Tiger Empire!
If the Hundred Herb Hall did not have an endless supply of Spirit Raising Pills, they would not be able to establish themselves in the Returning Ruins. Ordinary pills were like street goods that could be sold by small vendors. The Hundred Herb Hall naturally could not be reduced to a small vendor. Thus, they could only withdraw their branches.
… …
After returning to the Marquis's residence, Ning Qi met with Grandfather Ning.
"You even dare to offend the Hundred Herb Sect."
The Old Master sighed.
