Hearing that a Dao Nourishment Divine Emperor dared to call Liu Fangzhen's name, the girl's face sunk and she said sternly "City lord Liu is looking for you. Pill master Ning, come with me."
If someone else invited him, he would probably go. Since this Liu Fangzhen invited him, Ning Cheng would never go. Moreover, Liu Fangzhen's invitation was not an invitation. To put it bluntly, it was an order. From the beginning to the end, this young girl never said that Liu Fangzhen had invited her. She only said that Liu Fangzhen had something to discuss with her.
She was still unhappy when he mentioned Liu Fangzhen's name. Now, she didn't even need to ask if he was free. She just asked him to go with her. Did this guy think he was the ruler of heaven and earth? The Grand Change Realm's Dao Court might be a place with a strict hierarchy, but Ning Cheng wasn't someone from the Dao Court.
"Sissy, let's go. Recently, there are a lot of people in the Great Simplicity Alchemy City. Let's not look for a place, let's go directly to Association Master Si Chen. "Ning Cheng didn't even bother to pay attention to this girl and directly called out to Qianqian.
"Pill Master Ning, you should come with me to pay a visit to City Lord Liu first." The young girl's expression turned even uglier. Throughout history, whenever City Lord Liu wanted to meet someone, she only needed to say a word. Most of the time, she didn't even need to show up herself. She could just call someone over to greet her. She purposely used the word 'greet', meaning that City Lord Liu's status was much higher than his.
Even though this was not Wu Ting Sacred Dao City, no one dared to disregard City Lord Liu's words in this place. This time, she had personally come to find Ning Cheng, but because Ning Cheng was a Pill Master, she had given him enough face. Now, it seemed that even if she gave him face, he might not even give her the time of day.
Ning Cheng stopped, looked at the girl and asked, "Does Liu Fangzhen know me?"
"City Lord Liu has never seen Alchemist Ning before." Ning Cheng calling out Liu Fangzhen's name for the second time made the girl even angrier. However, she did not have the courage to do anything to the Pill Masters of the Five Realms Pill Competition.
After saying this sentence, she felt a little unhappy in her heart and threatened him, "Ning Cheng, City Master Liu asked you to go. If you don't go, have you thought about the consequences? I'm afraid it's not something a puny Grand Essence Realm Alchemist like you can bear. Even if your Alchemy Dao isn't bad, it's the same. "
Ning Cheng showed a faint smile. If he did not threaten him, he would at most refuse. But threatening him? Who do you think you are, Liu Fangzhen?
"Liu Fangzhen doesn't know me, and I don't know him either. Why would I go see him? Does he have one more egg than others, or is his face bigger than others' buttocks? "
After saying this sentence, Ning Cheng did not wait for the other party to answer and directly walked away.
It wasn't that he wanted to intentionally offend Liu Fangzhen, but he had long since run out of leeway with Liu Fangzhen. There was no point in enduring anymore. Since Liu Fangzhen was looking for him for no reason, he must have found some clues. Perhaps they only wanted to interrogate him about the whole story. In other words, if he went to see Liu Fangzhen and Liu Fangzhen accidentally killed him, he could only blame it on his bad luck.
With Liu Fangzhen's status, if he killed a mere alchemist like him, even if he would be condemned by the Elixir Association or be held accountable, they would not do anything to him.
Since they were destined to be enemies, there was no need to kneel and lick each other's stinky feet.
Watching Ning Cheng and Qianqian walk away, the messenger girl's face turned livid with anger, and her whole body trembled. She had never seen such an arrogant guy. He was just a Dao Nourishment Divine Emperor. So what if he was a Pill Sage?
"Big Brother Ning, Liu Fangzhen is famous for seeking revenge for the smallest grievance. I'm afraid … I'm afraid …"
Seeing that Ning Cheng not only didn't go to see Liu Fangzhen, but also spoke rudely, Qianqian immediately spoke with some worry.
Ning Cheng smiled, "Qianqian, don't worry. Liu Fangzhen came looking for us because he became suspicious. Even if we listen to him, he won't let us go. "
"I'm sorry, I implicated you." Qianqian thought of Pan Qian, who had blocked the way before, and spoke with some sadness.
Ning Cheng said directly, "Qianqian, you're wrong. Pan Qian and I have a life-and-death friendship. His matters are my matters."
With Liu Fangzhen by his side, Ning Cheng went to find Si Chen Qiu Tian. Fortunately, Si Chen Qiu Tian had already arranged a room for him.
… …
The Five Great Dao Courts each had a rest stop in Great Yi Alchemy City, and Liu Fangzhen lived in the Jade Pearl Rest Stop. The Jade Pearl Rest Stop wasn't far from Ning Cheng's Unparalleled Rest Stop. However, in Great Yi Alchemy City, even a few steps away couldn't be detected with spiritual consciousness.
At this moment, Liu Fangzhen listened to the girl's words with a calm expression. He didn't get angry when Ning Cheng compared his face to someone else's ass. His gaze didn't even change.
After the girl finished speaking, he said in a calm voice, "You can go now. I got it."
… …
After Ning Cheng returned to the rest stop, he continued to study the Universe Plants. As long as he didn't go out, Liu Fangzhen couldn't do anything to him. If there was anything he didn't understand, he would immediately ask Lu Dongce, who also lived in Unparalleled Rest Stop. As for the few plants that weren't marked, Lu Dongce didn't know. As for what he knew, he told Ning Cheng without reservation.
After more than two months, Ning Cheng had already read two-thirds of the Universe Plants in his hand. During these two months, Ning Cheng had gained a lot. Not only because of the contents of the Universe Plants, but also because of the Pill Dao discussion with Lu Dongce, which gave him a lot of inspiration. When it came to the Pill Dao, Lu Dongce had a higher level than Si Chen Qiu Tian.
In addition to his understanding of the Pill Dao, Ning Cheng and Lu Dongce also forged a deep friendship. Lu Dongce had a direct personality and didn't like to beat around the bush. This kind of personality made it easy for him to offend people, but he got along well with Ning Cheng.
On this day, Ning Cheng had just put down the Universe Plants when the restriction at the door was triggered.
Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness swept out and saw Si Chen Qiu Tian and a strange middle-aged Confucian scholar standing at the door. He immediately noticed that this strange Confucian scholar's cultivation wasn't any worse than Si Chen Qiu Tian's. In other words, the other party was at least a Primordial Chaos powerhouse. Which Primordial Chaos Holy Emperor came to find him?
Ning Cheng opened the room's restriction, but before he could speak, Si Chen Qiu Tian smiled and said, "Ning Cheng, this is Wu Ting Sacred Dao City's City Lord, Liu Fangzhen. He heard that your Pill Dao is amazing, so he came to visit."
If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely be shocked to learn that a Primordial Chaos Holy Emperor came to visit a small Dao Nourishment Holy Emperor Pill Master like Ning Cheng. Si Chen Qiu Tian didn't feel surprised. Ning Cheng had the qualifications to make any Primordial Chaos Holy Emperor come to visit him.
Ning Cheng's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect Liu Fangzhen to be so magnanimous. He had ridiculed Liu Fangzhen like that. If it was anyone else, they would only act in secret and would never take the initiative to visit. The reason why he ridiculed Liu Fangzhen mercilessly in the first place, apart from disdain for Liu Fangzhen's attitude and knowing that the two of them wouldn't become friends. Another purpose was to let him know that Liu Fangzhen was his opponent. When Liu Fangzhen secretly acted against him, he could prepare for the Five Realms Pill Competition with peace of mind.
In any case, Ning Cheng didn't expect Liu Fangzhen to take the initiative to visit him.
"So it's City Lord Liu. Please come in. Union Master Si Chen, please come in. " Liu Fangzhen had lowered his stance this time. No matter what his purpose was, Ning Cheng couldn't say anything before Liu Fangzhen fell out with him.
He had to invite Union Master Si Chen in. Otherwise, what would he do if Liu Fangzhen suddenly attacked him?
Si Chen Qiu Tian also didn't plan to leave. No matter why Liu Fangzhen came to see Ning Cheng, Liu Fangzhen was still a Primordial Essence Holy Emperor. Ning Cheng was the person he was most optimistic about. Therefore, he naturally couldn't let Ning Cheng be alone with an unfamiliar Primordial Essence Holy Emperor.
"For this Five Realms Pill Competition, I also received an invitation from the Great Change Pill Meet. I've long heard that Pill Sage Ning's Dao of Alchemy has reached a new level. This Liu came uninvited, I hope Pill Sage Ning won't blame me. "Liu Fangzhen not only spoke naturally but also spoke politely. It was as if he wasn't the one who directly ordered Ning Cheng to go there last time.
"I didn't expect City Lord Liu to be a person who loves alchemy. That's for the best. Let's discuss the Dao of Alchemy together …." Ning Cheng pretended to be surprised. As long as Liu Fangzhen agreed to discuss the Dao of Alchemy with Si Chen Qiu Tian, he could just leave Liu Fangzhen here for a few days and nights.
Liu Fangzhen quickly waved his hand and said, "I just like to interact with alchemists. I don't have a deep understanding of the Dao of Alchemy. By the way, I heard that when Pill Sage Ning first arrived in the Great Change Realm, you went out for a walk. Did you gain anything? "
Regardless of what Liu Fangzhen meant by this question, Ning Cheng still replied calmly, "The Great Change Realm is too big. I wandered around for a few days but couldn't find any clues. So, I simply returned to Alchemy City."
Liu Fangzhen said with a straight face, "I admire Pill Sage Ning's achievements in the Dao of Alchemy. But although the Great Change Realm is jointly protected by the Five Major Dao Courts, it still has some turbulence. All along, alchemists have made the greatest contributions. The Great Change Alchemy City is close to the Liuying Dao Pavilion. If something happens, my Liuying Dao Pavilion would be ashamed to face the Pill Meet. "
Ning Cheng sneered in his heart but didn't say anything. 'Let's see how you play.'
Seeing that Ning Cheng didn't say anything, Liu Fangzhen took the initiative to speak up, "Pill Sage Ning should know about the Great Change Giant Clan, right? The Great Change Giant Clan once plotted to seize the entire Great Change Realm. Fortunately, we discovered it early and finally managed to prevent this disaster. Unfortunately, there are still some fish that escaped the net. There's a saying that wildfire can't burn away anything, but the spring wind blows it again. What they lack the most are alchemists who can refine Dao Pills for them. Therefore, I'm very worried about this Five Realms Pill Competition. "
"Many thanks for City Lord Liu's concern. But I don't plan on leaving this place before the Five Realms Pill Competition ends," Ning Cheng said with a sour tone in his heart. The ancient giant clan was a threat? This Liu Fangzhen was truly shameless.
Liu Fangzhen nodded and said with a solemn tone, "I heard that you have a woman named Qianqian by your side. Did you bring her from the Void City of the Five Realms?"
Here it comes, Ning Cheng thought to himself. He just didn't know if Liu Fangzhen learned about Qianqian after Yuanji's death or before. According to his judgment, Liu Fangzhen should have learned about it after Yuanji's death. Otherwise, someone like Liu Fangzhen wouldn't have waited for him and Qianqian to arrive at the Great Change Sacred Dao City before intercepting them.
