After failing her nirvana, the Phoenix Empress opened her eyes to find herself reborn into a mortal girl in a world of declining magic. This girl was also the true daughter of a wealthy family, los...
Chapter 327 I'll have him killed right away
"The Leng family's old house has been razed to the ground."
Huo Qinghuang nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "However, there must be more than just these few people in the Leng family. There must be many people who don't live in the old house, right?"
Having said that, she frowned, wondering whether she should cast the blood curse to wipe out the entire group.
At this time, Huo Lingjun said, "I heard that the direct descendants of the Leng family are required to live in the old house and are not allowed to move out. Those who live outside are the collateral descendants. This is also the practice of many secluded families. It is said that it is to cultivate the sense of honor of the clan members."
"Bullshit sense of honor!"
Huo Lingchuan sneered, "Isn't it just that the direct lineage looks down on the collateral lineage and made up such a rule to distinguish bloodlines? They think they are superior, but they probably didn't expect that this would lead to the annihilation of the direct lineage."
"So, the Leng family's direct descendants are all gone? Will the side branches avenge them?"
Huo Lingfeng asked with a frown.
Huo Qinghuang silently put down her fingers and tilted her head slightly: "The Leng family still has a direct descendant outside, the eldest grandson of the Leng family, Leng Kun. This person is hiding in the old house of the Song family. I guess he dared not show up after hearing the news.
As for the Leng family's side branches, they are all mortals without any martial power. If you can't even deal with them, don't say that I look down on you."
These words made the three brothers feel a little ashamed.
Only then did they realize that ever since Huo Qinghuang returned to the Huo family, they had been like useless people and had been under the other party's protection.
"cough!"
Huo Lingjun straightened his chest and coughed lightly, as if to say that his management of the Huo Group was still somewhat useful.
"Leng Kun? The president of Leng Group, turns out he's from the Leng family?"
At this time, Steward Wang, who had been hiding at the side, suddenly realized, "So, the Song family has always had the support of the Leng family behind it. No wonder the Song family has looked shaky over the past few months, but has never completely fallen apart."
"That's him."
Huo Qinghuang said calmly: "This person is nothing to worry about. I will have him killed right away."
"Wait, the Song family is in the imperial capital after all. If there is a big commotion, it might not be good, right?"
Huo Lingchuan scratched his head and said a little worriedly.
Hearing this, Huo Qinghuang glanced at him as if he were an idiot and shook his head: "Don't worry about this. Practice martial arts well. I will check your training results in a month."
Huo Lingchuan: “…”
I told you to be a bad mouth!
Now, you've brought disaster upon yourself!
He curled his lips and was about to say that he had worked hard enough, but he saw Huo Lingfeng took out two porcelain bottles from somewhere and handed them to Huo Qinghuang.
"Qing Huang, I have already refined the Nourishing Spirit Pill and the Rejuvenating Energy Powder. Do you think they can be used?"
"You finished it so quickly?"
Huo Qinghuang was delighted, took the two medicine bottles and looked at them carefully.
As soon as I opened the medicine bottle, a medicinal fragrance instantly filled the air, refreshing my heart.
She closed her eyes slightly, feeling the strong medicinal power contained in the pill, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.
"This pill is well made. Both the quality and the concentration of its medicinal power far exceed my expectations. It seems that I made the right choice when I asked you to learn alchemy."
Hearing Huo Qinghuang's praise, Huo Lingfeng's face flushed slightly, and he scratched his head and said, "Well, second brother does have some talent, right?"
Huo Lingchuan came over, staring at the medicine bottle, and asked curiously: "Qing Huang, what are the specific effects of this Yang Shen Pill and Hui Qi Powder?"
Huo Qinghuang rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "The Yangshen Pill can nourish the soul and strengthen the mental strength. It is very effective for cultivation and recovery of mental loss. The Qi-Restoring Powder can heal injuries and is extremely useful for low-level martial artists.
If you practice hard, you will know the importance of these pills."
Huo Lingchuan shrank his neck and muttered softly, "I have only just begun to understand the secrets of inner strength. How can I compare with you?"
"What are you mumbling about?"
Huo Qinghuang narrowed her eyes slightly.
"No, nothing, I'll go practice now!"
Huo Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat and he ran as if there was a dog chasing him. He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"You are the only one who can control Lao Wu."
Huo Lingjun shook his head, looked at the pill in Huo Qinghuang's hand, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, and said:
“Qing Huang, since the effects of the elixir refined by Ling Feng are so good, can we consider applying it to the business of the Huo Group?
For example, developing some health products related to elixirs and launching them on the market may open up a new business field.”
Huo Qinghuang nodded slightly and agreed: "This is a good idea.
However, the process of refining elixirs is complicated and requires a large amount of rare medicinal materials, so it is probably impossible to achieve large-scale production."
Huo Lingfeng also said: "I can try to find some alternative medicinal materials, or optimize the alchemy process to see if I can increase the output of pills. But some rare medicinal materials are difficult to buy on the market."
“That doesn’t have to be the case.”
Huo Qinghuang shook his head: "Things are valuable because they are rare. You must remember that these pills are the future capital of the Huo family and cannot be sold at will.
Oh, by the way, Third Brother might need a lot of medicinal pills recently, so let’s focus on him first.”
"What about you?"
Huo Lingfeng frowned slightly: "Take these pills first, I will refine them again for the third brother."
He had contacted Huo Lingze and knew that the other party wanted to cooperate with the Zhao family in Quancheng, and the Peiyuan Dan he refined was the stepping stone.
"Okay."
Huo Qinghuang nodded and reached out to take one of the porcelain bottles: "But I only need the Yang Shen Pill, other pills are useless to me."
"Oh well."
Huo Lingfeng silently withdrew his hand, unable to hide the joy on his face.
He had finally refined a pill that Qing Huang could use. Even though there was only one kind, it was a good start, wasn’t it?
"cough!"
At this moment, Huo Lingjun coughed lightly and said to Huo Lingfeng, "Hey, second brother, can you give me a bottle of your Peiyuan Pill?"
"What do you want that for?"
Huo Lingfeng glanced at his expression and asked back.
My eldest brother has a lot of energy, and if he replenishes it, it will have nowhere to vent. My eldest sister-in-law is not at home, so if something happens again, it will be even more difficult to explain.
"Um, your sister-in-law hasn't come back yet. If I send a bottle of Peiyuan Dan to my father-in-law, do you think he will just pack up your sister-in-law and let me bring her back?"
Huo Lingjun stroked his chin and spoke in a seemingly strategic manner.
“…”
Huo Lingfeng was a little speechless.
But it’s true, if my sister-in-law’s father knew the effectiveness of Peiyuan Dan, he would probably let my sister-in-law come back immediately.
After all, this Peiyuan Pill can not only improve physical fitness, but also prolong life if taken for a long time. For ordinary people, it is simply a dream come true.
"Okay, let me go back and look for any extra ones."
Huo Lingfeng responded helplessly.
When Huo Lingjun heard this, his face instantly lit up with joy.
"Oh, you are really nice, second brother! When your sister-in-law comes back, I will ask her to make you something delicious and reward you well."
Watching the interaction between the two brothers, Huo Qinghuang couldn't help but smile.
The family is thriving and the brothers are living in harmony, perhaps this is the simplest pursuit of mankind?
But why did she feel somewhat comfortable in her heart?
