The hall master who was walking in front did not pause at all, as if he had not heard her words at all, and his face remained calm.
Yan An, who was standing by, asked in surprise: "Feng Xi, who is Mu Yun?"
Jin Fengxi pointed at the Palace Master and said, "He, isn't his name Mu Yun?"
Mu Yun tilted his head to look at her and replied calmly, "My name is not Mu Yun, young lady. I'm afraid you've got the wrong person."
Seeing his calm expression, Jin Fengxi realized that she had really made a mistake and could only smile awkwardly: "Sorry, I must have made a mistake. Sorry."
The Palace Master responded expressionlessly, "It's okay." After that, he continued to walk ahead.
Jin Fengxi fell into deep thought again, thinking to herself: [It seems I recognized the wrong person.]
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have asked. It made things so awkward." Jin Fengxi regretted her impulsiveness.
At this time, Yan An came forward and asked softly, "Feng Xi, who is Mu Yun? Why have I never heard you mention him?"
Jin Fengxi couldn't help but think of that strong and sturdy figure and the mysterious and charming face under the mask, and her cheeks couldn't help but feel slightly hot.
She quickly gathered herself and replied, "He... is a friend I just met yesterday. I'll introduce him to you when I have the chance."
The hall master who was walking in front heard her words, paused slightly, and looked back at her unconsciously.
【She actually treats me as a friend? 】
Soon, they arrived at the imperial kitchen.
The door of the Imperial Kitchen was open, and inside was a wide jade corridor with exquisite murals and precious flowers on both sides.
At the end of the corridor is a spacious hall with a dazzling jewel chandelier hanging from the ceiling, illuminating the entire space as bright as day.
In the center of the imperial kitchen, there is a white marble table, which is filled with all kinds of delicious food with good color, aroma and taste, making people salivate.
"Please take a seat, all three." The Palace Master invited with a smile.
The three of them nodded slightly, expressed their gratitude to the hall master, and then sat down on the chairs one after another.
The Palace Master gently raised the golden cup in his hand, a faint smile on his lips: "Everything just now was just a misunderstanding, so this cup of wine is my apology to you all."
Lu Jingzhi stared at the golden cup in his hand. He frowned slightly and quietly used the healing ability of the magnolia that he possessed.
Pour it into the golden cup and observe carefully to see if any poisonous gas comes out.
After a moment, a barely perceptible smile finally appeared on his face.
"Brother, we accidentally injured civilians, so we are certainly at fault. So let's settle our grudges with a cup today." Lu Jingzhi said softly, with some sincerity and apology in his voice.
With a crisp clink of glasses, the four people raised their glasses at the same time and drank them all in one gulp.
At this moment, the whole scene became exceptionally harmonious.
"We have properly handled this matter, and the injured have been fully treated and recovered." The Palace Master paused, then spoke in a serious tone, "Would you three be willing to cooperate with us?"
Hearing these words, Lu Jingzhi's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately became alert.
He thought to himself, "Sure enough, no wonder his attitude changed so quickly, and he even let bygones be bygones for accidentally injuring civilians. So he's trying to gain cooperation."
Yan An and Lu Jingzhi looked at each other, understood each other, and exchanged glances.
"Ahem..." Lu Jingzhi coughed lightly and said straight to the point: "I wonder why the Palace Master came to us to seek cooperation this time? Why not tell us directly!"
Mu Yun smiled slightly and introduced himself: "My name is Li Yun, and I am the master of Huangyuan Palace."
Lu Jingzhi nodded slightly, then stood up from his chair and introduced himself and the two people beside him to Mu Yun.
"My name is Lu Jingzhi, this is my...master Yan An, and this is my master's childhood friend Jin Fengxi."
After a few simple greetings, they began to enjoy the delicious food on the table and discuss business...
Lu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Yun with difficulty, and said, "You want us to help you attack the three tribes outside the city?"
Mu Yun was silent for a moment, then nodded. "That's right, but as long as you're willing to help, I'll definitely not let you down in terms of compensation. Please rest assured."
At this moment, Jin Fengxi, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "I want the Void Pill, do you have any?"
Ever since Yan An successfully broke through to the Void Realm, she was naturally very envious.
However, a precious elixir like the Void Pill is an extremely rare treasure even in the Demon Realm and the Holy Realm, and it is not something that can be found just by looking at it.
After hearing her request, Mu Yun said without hesitation: "I have another one on me. If Miss Jin needs it, I can give it to you now."
A hundred years ago... in order to break through the void, he prepared two sets of medicinal herbs with great difficulty.
He ran from the ancient wilderness to the holy land and spent a lot of money to get an eighth-grade alchemy master to refine it for him.
Jin Fengxi had never expected that he would agree to the conditions she had casually proposed so readily, without even a moment of bargaining!!!
"You...won't you think about it again? If you give it to me, don't regret it."
Mu Yun looked at Jin Fengxi, who was so surprised that she stuttered a little, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips, revealing a smile, and said softly.
"No regrets. This Void Pill has lost its effect on me. Moreover, the highest level of cultivation of a palace officer like me is only the sixth star of the Sky Realm. It is still unknown whether I can break through to the peak in this lifetime."
