“Eldest Princess, what is the matter!”
The Inferno Demon Immortal King stepped into the air, calm and natural, not flustered in the slightest.
Qin Li’s eyes narrowed, this person’s aura was deep and domineering, still above the Xuanqi Immortal King, a top-tier Immortal King of the Ninth Grade.
Ye Qingyue gave a salute and said with courtesy, “Servant of the Close Guard has a family heirloom, a white jade arm, I heard from Immortal King Zhendong that it was taken by the Inferno Fiend Quintessence, please return it.”
The Inferno Fiend Immortal King stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “Oh, that strange arm? I wanted to return it to you guys, but unfortunately, I don’t know where the wild cat came from and took the jade hand, I’m really sorry.”
The corners of several people’s mouths twitched.
A sh*t excuse, it was obvious that he had taken the treasure by force and didn’t want to return it.
The Zhendong Immortal King felt guilty in his heart and spoke out righteously, “The Yan Demon Leader is joking, Yongyue City is located in the cold sky, there are no wild cats at all, please return the Jade Hand.”
The Yan Demon Immortal King was slightly furious and grunted, “Zhen Dong Immortal King, your Seventh Grade Ice Chopping Demon Blade is still something that I have expended my efforts on and refined, in which I have backed up quite a lot of materials, and now that you’re able to be patient, you’ve actually slapped me in the face!”
“I don’t dare to dare!”The Zhendong Immortal King waved his hands repeatedly, very frightened.
On the surface, Immortal King Yan Demon was only the head of the Artifact Department, his power wasn’t very big, but many Immortal Kings’ blades were refined by him, and it was all about favours, so no one dared to offend him in the vast Northern Domain.
Ye Qingyue’s beautiful eyebrow hairs raised, her heart was extremely unhappy, “Inferno Demon Leader, if you don’t return the Jade Hand, I can only search the Weaponry Department.”
“How dare you!”
The Yan Demon Immortal King shouted angrily.
As a Seventh Grade Alchemist, he was used to being horizontal in the Northern Domain and hadn’t been afraid of anyone yet.
“Eldest Princess, I’m letting you off the hook for the sake of the monarch, so I hope you won’t go too far. The Ministry of Weaponry is an important place in the Northern Region, if I give you a search, where is the face of me, the leader of the Ministry of Weaponry?”
Ye Qingyue was not timid and directly displayed her aura, surprisingly, she was also an Immortal King Ninth Grade, and righteously said, “My father founded the Northern Kingdom, and ruled the people by the law, thus the Northern Domain is united. Now that the Inferno Demon Leader is openly taking by force and trampling on the law, I can only protect the law with my body, the worst thing is to make a scene at the Aurora Grand Hall, so that my father can deal with it impartially.”
Clang.
Ye Qingyue instantly drew her sword.
The two curved swords appeared like crescent moons hanging in the west, carved like crystal with a cold light.
The Zhendong Immortal King exclaimed, “Isn’t this the treasured possession of the Sovereign, the seventh-grade twin knives, the Dai Mei Yuanyang Knives, rumoured to have been refined by the Five Weapons Immortal and given to the Yuan Dan Immortal to be used as a medicine picking and cutting knife, and then later strayed into the Northern Domain and was obtained by the Sovereign.”
At once!
The scene was drawn out with swords.
There was a great tendency to kill each other at the drop of a hat.
Yan Demon Immortal King’s face was green, in his heart, he was still somewhat abashed, really want to fight, he was still a bit weak, besides, in the end, he was the one who was at a disadvantage, and making a scene at the Aurora Grand Hall would only be a disgrace.
“Inferno Demon Kui, a small wildcat only, I think you have already subdued, take back the jade hand!”Ye Qingyue said, taking the initiative to give the stage.
“Eldest Princess is a brilliant mind, I was just about to return the Jade Hand!”The Yan Demon Immortal King was secretly furious in his heart and unwillingly took out the white jade hand.
The treasure was lost and found.
Qin Li breathed a sigh of relief, a large stone in his heart falling to the ground.
This jade hand had a mysterious origin, its power surpassed that of a seventh-grade artefact, it definitely had a great chance, it had to be taken away and he would suffer for the rest of his life.
“Farewell at this point!”
Ye Qingyue led Qin Li and stepped into the air to leave.
The Yan Demon Immortal King’s eyes flickered like a devouring viper, “That jade hand is very odd, it is by no means a weapon, it should be the palm of a living creature. The five-coloured patterns on it are unusually complex and have never been seen before, I must seize it and study it in detail, perhaps there is an opportunity to advance to the eighth grade of artifact refiner.”
Leaving the Artifact Department!
The two of them travelled to their mansion in the city.
Qin Li surveyed Ye Qingyue from time to time with some small curiosity.
Ye Qingyue smiled, “Why are you always looking at me, can’t it be that you were frightened by my appearance just now.”
“A little indeed, it’s the first time I’ve seen such a spirited girl!”Qin Li felt that what he said was incorrect and explained again, “The so-called spiritedness refers to thunder and lightning, with an astonishing vigour, and is the standard of a female heroine.”
Ye Qingyue smiled with a beaming smile and joked, “Don’t hide it, I can hear the meaning of your words, calling me a shrew is it?”
Qin Li waved his hand and said, “This is your blind guess, I rather feel that you are like a scimitar, afraid of being hidden in a sheath, gentle and harmless, once things come up, instantly pulling out the knife, sharp as a tack.”
Ye Qingyue laughed with a flamboyant smile, clearly enjoying Qin Li’s analogy.
The two walked and chatted, getting along happily.
Soon!
Before a mansion.
Qin Li carefully surveyed his new home.
Ye Qingyue, on the other hand, called out the maids of honour in the mansion and hammered, “This one is an Outer Dao Immortal King, you must be careful in serving him, and if you upset him, you will all get the hell out of Eternal Night City.”
The crowd of maids were silenced and hurried to greet their new master.
After chatting a few more times.
Ye Qingyue stepped into the air and left.
Qin Li entered the mansion and began cultivating.
The encounters along the way were too treacherous, it was rare to be quiet and cultivate properly.
He began to study the white jade hand, the five-coloured spirit patterns on it were too complex and needed to be carefully studied, and also topographically recorded in separate categories.
The more he studied it, the more he felt that the spirit patterns were marvellously conceived, and there were some spirit patterns that he had never seen before, it was practically a scripture, definitely coming from above an Immortal King, providing Qin Li with a great deal of ideas.
“If I ponder through the White Jade Hand, I’ll definitely advance to the Sixth Grade of Immortal King!”
Qin Li had a guess in his heart, and thus studied it for ten whole days without sleep, roughly gauging the grade of the White Jade Hand, with its power surpassing that of a normal seventh-grade artefact, but far inferior to an eighth-grade artefact.
He had used the Fuzi Sword once, and could clearly perceive the power of heaven and earth in the sword, once he drew the sword, it was like a Qiankun Edict, manipulating the aura of heaven and earth, and was fully capable of fighting with the Immortal King’s ninth product for a few strokes, but the White Jade Hand didn’t have this ability.
Knock knock knock!
Suddenly, a knock sounded on the door.
“My lord, you haven’t eaten or drunk anything for ten days, nor have you washed yourself.”
Qin Li flinched for a moment and realised that he was in a mess and should indeed wash up, so he opened the door to his room, letting a group of maids come in, pouring hot water and preparing to wash his face.
“Eh!”
Qin Li looked at himself in the mirror and woke up:
“I’ve already discarded this old identity of gold, so why should I wear a popular face, it’s time to change back to my true appearance.”
Qin Li instructed, “Come on people, help me go and collect rootless flowers, rosemary grass, and wood ganoderma lucidum …… I want to open the furnace for alchemy.”
A group of maids went down to work.
Qin Li took out the Flying Flower Furnace and prepared to preheat it.
Come to think of it, after leaving the Western Region, alchemy has basically been deserted, it’s about time I took the time to refine pills, at the very least, upgrade to a seventh grade alchemist, in which case I can concentrate on the art of refining weapons.
Qin Li took out half of the Resident Green Flower and couldn’t help but smile, this was still a gift from Su Qingxue, she had the care of the Zoicite Immortal King, so she should be safe.
After a while!
A few maids returned with bruises and swollen noses.
Qin Li frowned widely, “What’s the matter with you guys, were you robbed?”
The maids of honour cried, “My lord, we were indeed robbed. Just now, when we went to buy medicinal herbs, we were inexplicably picked on by the cultivators of the Weaponry Department, and not only were we bullied, but we were also robbed of the Immortal Stones you gave us.”
“The Weaponry Department, it seems to be the order of the Yan Demon Immortal King.”Qin Li secretly gritted his teeth, this fellow is truly a shadowy soul, “I’ll personally go and buy herbs, let’s see how they act as demons.”
Qin Li exited the mansion.
Sure enough, a group of Artifact Division cultivators followed him.
Qin Li directly ignored them and headed to the nearest herb shop.
The owner of the medicinal herb shop scowled, “I’m sorry, this shop doesn’t have any of these medicinal herbs!”
There went a few others, still the same reply, apparently the Yan Demon Immortal King had placed a warning, and no shop was willing to trade with him.
“Underestimated his power!”
Qin Li had no choice but to go to the Princess’ Mansion and look for Ye Qingyue.
“What’s the wind today that blew the Minister of Close Protection over.”Ye Qingyue was really pruning the flowers and plants.
“Don’t mention it!”Qin Li smiled awkwardly, explaining today’s encounter.
Ye Qingyue instantly became furious, her basalt iron scissors pinching and bending, “The Yan Demon Immortal King has really gone too far, relying on his status as a Seventh Grade Alchemist to act as an authority. Many Immortal Kings in the court are quite vocal, and father has lectured him a few times, but unfortunately he has always turned a deaf ear.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be the one to collect these herbs for you!”
Qin Li arched his hand and said, “Many thanks.”
Ye Qingyue suddenly asked, “By the way, Squire Kono, what do you need so many high-grade medicinal herbs for?”
“It’s better to call me Qin Li from now on!”Qin Li smiled, “I want to refine a Transfiguration Pill to restore my previous appearance.”
Ye Qingyue’s eyes flashed as she pursued, “How many grades of alchemist are you?”
“Sixth grade!”Qin Li replied.
