Consecrated Alchemist
The Sun clan had also sent a one star Dou Ling to participate in the auction this time around. Sun Hong was the same as everyone else, sucking up to Lu Liu, hoping to get familiar with him so that it would be easier for him to do things in the capital in the future. However, he did not expect to meet Ning Qi here. A few seconds later, he immediately recognized that Ning Qi was the murderer of Sun Daneng. A murderous aura was revealed in his eyes as he suddenly attacked Ning Qi.
Everyone was confused by this sudden turn of events. What kind of show was this?
"How dare you!"
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu shouted angrily. They leaped forward and stood in front of Ning Qi, blocking Sun Hong's palm strike together. Then, they took two steps back with pale faces.
"How dare you!"
Hai Dafu was shocked and angry at the same time. He never thought that someone would suddenly want to kill Ning Qi. He roared and slapped Sun Hong's back. Sun Hong didn't expect that someone would sneak attack him from behind and was directly hit by Hai Dafu's palm. He spat out a mouthful of blood and turned to look at Hai Dafu in panic. Why did you do this! "
The young disciples that Sun Hong brought were stunned by this scene and quickly ran in front of Sun Hong to protect him.
Hai Dafu said angrily: "Sun Hong, you attacked and killed our Hundred Herb Hall's VIP for no reason. If you don't give us an explanation today, you don't need to leave Wuyang County!"
"What? You're Hundred Herb Hall's VIP? Do you know that this person not only killed our alchemist Sun Daneng, but also hundreds of our disciples! "
Sun Hong glared at Hai Dafu.
Eh?
"He killed the Sun Clan's alchemist? This young man really has guts. This is a grudge that won't end until one of us dies! "
"Hehe, this is going to be a good show!"
"Let's see if Hundred Herb Hall will protect their VIP."
Hai Dafu was slightly surprised and looked at Ning Qi with questioning eyes. Ning Qi slowly nodded. Hai Dafu immediately sighed in his heart. How did they form such a grudge!
An alchemist was the core of a clan!
And the future heir of the clan!
The Sun Clan would definitely not let this go!
Hai Dafu looked at Lu Liu and Mei Gu with an ugly expression.
Lu Liu smiled and walked past the Sun Clan towards Ning Qi.
"Mister Ning, long time no see."
Ning Qi jumped off the horse and said with a smile, "Miss Lu Liu, thank you for bringing the spiritual herbs here."
Lu Liu smiled and said, "Elder Hai has already told me. This time, I've brought over five thousand sets of spiritual herbs, which should be more than enough for Young Master Ning to use. I didn't expect Young Master Ning to really be an alchemy grandmaster. Back in the capital, you kept it from me so badly. If I had known earlier, I would have asked Young Master Ning to refine a batch of yellow-level mid-grade Spirit Raising Pills, and I wouldn't have come all the way here."
Ning Qi smiled and said, "I didn't mean to hide it."
Lu Liu smiled. "I understand. The auction is about to begin. Let's go in."
"Yes."
The conversation between the two of them was neither loud nor soft. However, everyone here was either a Dou Ling or a Da Dou Shi. Even the weakest among them was a Dou Shi. Therefore, they could hear everything clearly.
"This person is actually an Alchemy Grandmaster!"
"No wonder Miss Lu Liu came personally. So that's how it is. I finally know why Hai Dafu had so many yellow-level Spirit Raising Pills!"
"Judging from Young Master Lu Liu's tone, this yellow-level mid-grade Spirit Raising Pill was also refined by him? How amazing! In our Qin Tang Empire, the only alchemy grandmaster who knows how to refine yellow-level mid-grade Spirit Raising Pills is that Shangguan Qianjun of the royal family, right? "
The faces of Sun Hong and the rest turned pale in an instant. Ning Qi was actually an alchemist?
He was the one who refined the yellow-level mid-grade Spirit Raising Pills?
This level far surpassed Sun Danneng's!
"The one who died in the Sun Clan was an alchemist, but the one who killed him was an Alchemy Grandmaster. The difference between the two isn't just a little bit. With the protection of Hundred Herb Hall, the Sun Clan probably won't be able to take revenge this time."
Everyone looked at Sun Hong and the rest with pity and entered Hundred Herb Hall one after another.
Sun Hong stood up from the ground.
"Elder Sun, are you alright?" A few of the Sun Clan disciples asked with concern.
Sun Hong waved his hand with a pale face. He said, "I didn't think that things would turn out this way. We won't be participating in this auction. We'll go back and report to the clan master."
… …
In the auction hall.
Ning Qi and Lu Liu entered the only luxurious private room high up. The little white horse, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu also entered. Originally, the two of them had planned to hold onto the little white horse and wait outside, but Lu Liu said that since they wanted to protect Ning Qi, they should not leave his side. With Ning Qi's agreement, the two of them entered.
After the auction began, battle weapons and pills were all snatched up by the crowd under the introduction of the Lotus Flower Conveyance auctioneer.
None of these items piqued Ning Qi's interest. Seeing this, Lu Liu smiled and said, "Young Master Ning, I would like to invite Young Master Ning to be a consecrated alchemist of Hundred Herb Hall. What does Young Master Ning think?"
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu secretly clicked their tongues. Hundred Herb Hall only had ten consecrated alchemists, and one of them was one of the three great alchemy grandmasters of the Qin Tang Empire!
There were no less than a thousand alchemists in the Qin Tang Empire, but less than one in a hundred would be chosen by Hundred Herb Hall to be consecrated! This was enough to show Ning Qi's value!
Ning Qi smiled and shook his head, "I don't like to be restrained. Consecrated, we can still work together, just like old brother Hai and I. Isn't it great to work together?"
Lu Liu smiled and did not give up. She continued to persuade him, "Young Master Ning, actually, becoming a consecrated alchemist of Hundred Herb Hall will not be restrained at all. We won't force you to refine any pills. It will only be a request, and you can reject it. We respect every consecrated alchemist. Our only request is that we, Hundred Herb Hall, have the priority to purchase the pills refined by the consecrated alchemist. Apart from this, Hundred Herb Hall is also responsible for protecting the consecrated alchemist. For example, I can ask Aunt Mei to mediate the enmity between Young Master Ning and the Sun Family. "
As she spoke, she glanced at the beautiful woman beside her.
This beautiful woman looked to be in her thirties, but her skin was extremely delicate and fair. In Ning Qi's eyes, she was definitely one of those flirtatious women.
If this was on Earth, with his personality, he would have already flirted with her. It was just that the other party's attribute was a Four Star Dou Wang, so he had no choice but to look straight at her.
Lu Liu's conditions seemed to be very tempting. He didn't have to pay anything to obtain the protection of Hundred Herb Hall. This was what he currently lacked.
Lu Liu saw that Ning Qi's face showed a hint of interest, and she immediately struck while the iron was hot, "Furthermore, our Hundred Herb Hall provides consecrated alchemists with a monthly stipend of one million taels. Consecrated alchemists can also purchase spiritual herbs, pills and weapons at a twenty percent discount!"
Ning Qi had no interest in a monthly stipend of one million taels, but the twenty percent discount on spiritual herbs was indeed tempting. After some thought, Ning Qi nodded and extended his hand, saying, "Deal."
