Of course, he didn't have the eagle eyes to tell Lan Zhi's age at a glance, but he was an alchemist and possessed a special fire of calamity, which allowed him to see a person's vitality. Lan Zhi's vitality was very strong, just like a tender bud that had just broken through the soil, suddenly blooming flowers and bearing fruits. It was really too early.
"Excuse me for asking, what is the cultivation level of your partner?" Baili Chaoge asked.
Lan Zhi said: "He is a cultivator at the Chengyuan realm."
Baili Chaoge said with regret, "With your alchemy skills, your future is limitless, and your status is also limitless. Chengyuan Realm... to be honest, your realm is too low. You won't even be worthy of guarding your door in the future."
Lan Zhi didn't like hearing him say such things and immediately felt unhappy. The two children were also very angry when they heard it, and they babbled and cursed at something.
Baili Chaoge didn't take it seriously. He came from a large family and had seen many gifted children. Some children could speak as soon as they were born, some children showed extraordinary signs at birth and inherited half of their mother's cultivation, and some children were born with knowledge. In comparison, Lan Zhi's two children could understand human speech, which was not special.
Lan Zhi frowned and said, "My husband's current cultivation level is Chengyuan Realm, but he can't stay there forever. In my eyes, he is the best, and that's enough... Our family just arrived in Xuanhuang Country and has been settled there for a few days. He became a staff member of the City Lord's Mansion and went out on a mission today."
Baili Chaoge had been planning to drop the topic, but upon hearing this, he asked in surprise, "Staff of the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Yes."
"This is not an easy job. Usually only the lower class people in Xuanhuang Kingdom or outsiders can become staff members..." Baili Chaoge muttered in a low voice.
But everyone present was a cultivator. Lan Zhi heard his words clearly and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Baili Chaoge shook his head: "No, nothing, being a staff member is pretty good."
Lan Zhi said, "If you are willing to tell me what you know, I can sell all the pills I refine to the alliance in the future."
Baili Chaoge laughed. "Pfft... The alliance isn't run by my family. I won't get much benefit from selling to it, unless you're willing to sell the pills you refine to my family at half price."
Lan Zhi said, "No problem."
Baili Chaoge added, "At least 100,000 pills must be sold. This is because the information you are seeking is top secret. If you don't believe me, you can go out and ask around. Few people know the inside story, and even if you spend money, you won't be able to buy what you want to know."
Lan Zhi said, "Okay, then one hundred thousand."
Anyway, the life span of a cultivator is very long. There are 365 days in a day. If she refines 100 pills a day, it will be enough pills in a year. However, it is impossible for her to refine pills every day. She can give herself some rest occasionally and refine 6,500 fewer pills. To make it an even number, she can refine 30,000 pills a year. It will only take about four years for her to pay off her debt.
Baili Chaoge said, "Don't agree too soon. There are certain requirements for these 100,000 pills. They must be third-grade pills or above, such as this Nourishing Heart Pill..."
Lan Zhi asked: "Can I provide all the Runxin Pills?"
Baili Chaoge said, "Yes, but the quality of each Nourishing Heart Pill must be the same as the one you refined today. You cannot pass off inferior ones as good ones."
"Okay, I understand."
Baili Chaoge took out a contract on the spot and wrote down the matters that the two had just agreed upon. Lan Zhi checked it and found that there was nothing wrong with the contract, so she signed her fake name "Zhilan" and dripped blood on it. Because of the blood, even if the name was fake, she had to abide by the contract and could not regret it.
Baili Chaoge put away the contract and said, "Aides are people who regularly die. The missions they carry out are extremely dangerous. Xuanhuang Kingdom promotes cultivation in order to cultivate more aides. Only when more aides die can the entire Xuanhuang Kingdom be safe... Your husband narrowly escaped death today. The chances of him returning are very small. Moreover, aides must carry out two missions every month. Even if he survives this time, he may not be able to survive the next... The saddest thing is, once you become an aides, you can't quit. Not even the royal family can intervene... No one can save him."
Hearing this, Lan Zhi's expression changed and she asked, "What if we leave Xuanhuang Country?"
