Chapter 328 The Invincible Cockroach

Huo Qinghuang was slightly dazed and felt that she had been infected by humans.

How could she, the dignified emperor, be so easily swayed by the emotions of mortals?

"Okay, let's get back to the topic."

She stopped smiling and her expression became serious.

“Don’t worry about Leng Kun’s affairs, big brother just needs to focus on acquiring the Leng Group and the Song Group, and look for allies when necessary.

The second brother continued to make elixirs and urged the fifth brother to practice martial arts.

Steward Wang, ask Da Liu to come see me."

Butler Wang bowed slightly and replied respectfully, "Yes, Miss, I'll go call Da Liu over right away."

After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry.

Huo Lingze nodded, looking serious: "Qinghuang, don't worry, I will do my best to acquire the Leng Group and the Song Group. I will also carefully consider finding allies and strive to obtain the greatest benefits for the Huo family."

Huo Lingfeng also quickly expressed his opinion: "Qinghuang, I will definitely not slack off on the alchemy matter, and I will also keep an eye on Lao Wu. However, he has been practicing martial arts very hard recently. Do you want to let him relax a little?"

Huo Qinghuang raised her eyebrows slightly, with a tone that left no room for doubt: "Desperate? He's still far from it.

If he can't even endure this little hardship, how can he support the Huo family in the future? Just urge him, don't be soft-hearted. "

Huo Lingfeng smiled helplessly and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I will do as you wish."

After a while, Butler Wang led Da Liu in.

"Miss, are you looking for me?" Liu bowed and spoke respectfully.

After not seeing each other for half a month, Liu's eyes have become sharper and his blood and energy have become more vigorous. It is obvious that his strength has also improved during this period.

Huo Qinghuang glanced at him calmly and nodded slightly: "Not bad, it seems you are not lazy."

Liu bowed his head respectfully and said, "I am honored by your generous gift, Miss. I dare not slack off."

Huo Qinghuang didn't say much and went straight to the point: "What about Zhang Ming? How is his training going?"

Hearing Huo Qinghuang's question, Da Liu quickly replied: "Miss, Zhang Ming has recovered quite well. After this period of recuperation, he is now like a normal person."

"Okay, take him to the secret room. I have something to tell him."

Da Liu was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Miss still wants him to..., can his body handle it?"

Huo Qinghuang glanced at him calmly: "It seems that you care about him a lot."

"I dare not! I will go and call him right away."

Da Liu was startled and didn't dare to ask any more questions. He quickly left the hall.

Looking at his hurriedly leaving back, Huo Lingfeng frowned and looked at Huo Qinghuang with a little disapproval.

"That kid has just recovered. If it happens again, can he withstand it?"

According to ancient records, the Seven Arrows Book is an extremely vicious curse technique, and even the ancient Qigong practitioners could not withstand the backlash and died by vomiting blood.

It was a miracle for Zhang Ming, a mortal, to survive the first time. If it happened again, he would surely die immediately, right?

"Why, you don't have confidence in your own medicine?"

Huo Qinghuang raised her eyebrows and looked at him, feeling speechless.

She just asked Zhang Ming to curse another person, not to do anything to him. Look how nervous these two people are.

What's more, now that he has the Nourishing Spirit Pill and Rejuvenating Energy Powder, the other party can't die even if he wants to.

Moreover, she had looked at the other party's fate. Although the boy had a bad first half of his life, he was actually an indestructible cockroach and would live a very long life.

Even if you lose ten or eight years of your lifespan, you can make it up when the spiritual energy recovers.

Huo Lingfeng was blocked by her words and could only say awkwardly: "Okay, I will go and refine more nourishing spirit pills and Qi-recovering powder, so as not to really kill him."

"Everyone, go away. I have things to do, so I won't stay here tonight."

After explaining all this, Huo Qinghuang turned and left.

The night is as dark as ink, and the stars are twinkling.

Her figure looked particularly cold and lonely in the moonlight, like a phoenix about to spread its wings and fly high, waiting for the moment to soar into the sky.

Huo Lingjun and Huo Lingfeng looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness and pressure in each other's eyes.

Zhang Ming was sleeping soundly in bed when he was suddenly pulled out by Da Liu. He was so scared that he jumped up and down, putting his hands on his chest in a defensive posture.

"Da Liu? Why are you coming to my room instead of patrolling?"

Zhang Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he recognized it was Liu Da, and asked in confusion.

"The young lady is looking for you."

Liu Da spoke briefly and his expression was a little unclear.

"What? Miss Huo is looking for me again?!"

Zhang Ming's face changed, the nightmare-like experience instantly came to his mind, and his body shivered involuntarily.

He subconsciously took a step back, his voice trembling: "Da Liu, do you know why Miss Huo wants to see me? I have just recovered, you won't ask me to do that kind of life-threatening thing again, right?"

Looking at him like this, Da Liu felt a little complicated.

He saw what happened to Zhang Ming last time, but he dared not disobey the eldest lady's order.

"The young lady didn't say anything specific, she just asked me to take you to the secret room."

Liu's tone was calm, but there was a hint of unquestionable determination in his eyes.

Zhang Ming's face turned pale, and his lips trembled slightly: "Secret room? Another secret room! Da Liu, can I not go?"

Da Liu shook his head and said firmly: "No one dares to disobey the orders of the young lady. Zhang Ming, you should come with me. Don't let the young lady wait anxiously."

Zhang Ming stood there, struggling in his heart.

He knew that he could not disobey Huo Qinghuang's orders, but when he thought of his last experience in the secret room, he felt a sense of fear.

Seeing that he was hesitant to move, Da Liu sighed, walked up and patted him on the shoulder.

"Zhang Ming, I know you are scared, but since the young lady is looking for you, she must have her reasons. Don't worry, the young lady is not a cruel person and will not let anything happen to you."

Zhang Ming had no choice but to follow Da Liu all the way to the secret room.

Along the way, his heart was in turmoil and all kinds of bad thoughts flashed through his mind.

Soon, they arrived at the door of the secret room.

Liu paused at the door, turned to Zhang Ming and said, "Come in, I'll wait for you outside."

Zhang Ming took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the secret room.

The light in the secret room was dim. Huo Qinghuang stood in the middle of the room with her back to him, emitting an awe-inspiring aura.

Zhang Ming swallowed his saliva, walked forward slowly, and said respectfully: "Miss Huo, you are looking for me?"

Huo Qinghuang turned around, looked Zhang Ming up and down, and nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that these pills have a significant effect on mortals. In just half a month, he is full of energy again.

Zhang Ming felt his whole body go numb when he saw her gaze. When he saw the fully decorated altar, he secretly groaned in his heart and his whole face wrinkled.

He knew that this young lady called him here for no good reason!

"It seems that you already know why I called you here. Get ready. The ceremony will begin soon."

Huo Qinghuang raised her eyebrows slightly and went straight to the point.

When Zhang Ming heard this, his face turned pale instantly, his body swayed, and he almost fell down.
