Lu Jingzhi coughed twice to moisten his throat, then slowly said, "I wonder if Brother Li has an eighth-grade blood cleansing pill?"
“Cough cough cough!”
Hearing this, Mu Yun, who was eating, suddenly choked and couldn't help coughing violently.
With a click.
The chopsticks fell off the table. Mu Yun looked at Lu Jingzhi speechlessly, secretly complaining in his heart: [What the hell is this guy talking about? Eighth-grade elixir? He really dares to speak!]
Mu Yun took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and said with a wry smile: "No, Brother Lu, this is not a wishing well. I don't have this kind of eighth-grade elixir."
Lu Jingzhi seemed to have anticipated this and continued to ask calmly, "Since there's no Bloodline Cleansing Pill, do you have the Yin-Yang Harmonizing Pill?"
"Yin Yang Harmonizing Pill?"
Mu Yun frowned, thinking...
"Well, Brother Li, you don't really have this sixth-grade elixir, do you?"
Mu Yun shook his head lightly and said helplessly, "Sorry, I don't have the Yin-Yang Harmonizing Pill because I'm missing the Yin-Yang Grass."
After hearing this, Lu Jingzhi showed a hint of disappointment on his face, but he quickly regained his composure.
He pinched his chin, thought for a moment, and then spoke again: "Hmm... In that case, Brother Li, do you have the medicinal ingredient of Piercing Cloud Fire?"
"This...I don't know either."
Then he waved his hand, signaling the man in dark blue robe to come over.
"Palace Master, what are your instructions?"
"Go to the treasury and see if you have the Cloud Piercing Fire. If you do, bring it here."
After receiving the order, the man strode out of the Imperial Kitchen...
Then, Mu Yun turned to look at Yan An, who had not yet made a request, and asked, "Miss Yan, what kind of reward do you want?"
"You don't have what I want, and I don't need what you have, so I'm just accompanying my apprentice this time."
Hearing this, Mu Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then my three fellow Taoists, let's raise our glasses and drink together again!"
After a satisfying meal...
The man in the dark blue robe walked over with steady steps, holding a bright red cloud in his hands, with a blue stamen in the center blooming in the fire cloud.
"This is the Cloud Piercing Treasure Fire. Are you satisfied, Brother Lu?"
Lu Jingzhi took the precious medicinal herb from the man's hand and looked at it carefully.
The fire cloud condensed into a gorgeous petal, as if burning with raging fire, and the pistil was like a piece of ice-blue ice crystal, crystal clear.
They complement each other, creating a strange contrast.
Lu Jingzhi carefully put the herbs into his pocket, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes. He clasped his fists and said to Mu Yun, "I, Lu, would like to thank Brother Li for the treasure. Brother Li's business is my business. I will definitely help you defeat the three tribes outside the city."
After saying that, he stood up, walked to Mu Yun and sat down, and put his hand on Mu Yun's shoulder without any hesitation.
Mu Yun frowned slightly, with a hint of rejection on his face.
But he soon remembered that he needed their help, so he endured the discomfort and did not push away the other person's hand.
Lu Jingzhi smiled slightly and asked in a relaxed tone, "Brother Li, I have a plan. Would you like to listen to it?"
Mu Yun's eyes flickered, and he answered with a bit of curiosity: "Oh? Tell me about it."
Lu Jingzhi skillfully picked up the wine jug and filled a glass for each of them. Then he said softly, "Brother Li, have you heard of the alienation plan?"
Mu Yun looked at him suspiciously, "A plot to sow discord?"
Lu Jingzhi nodded and explained, "It's about using clever means to sow discord among the enemies, causing internal conflicts and divisions."
Mu Yun fell into deep thought. After a while, he slowly spoke: "The relationship between them has always been complicated, and they often fight over interests. But now they face a common threat and have chosen to cooperate temporarily."
With a "tap," Lu Jingzhi tapped his wine glass lightly, a sly smile curling up at the corner of his mouth. He continued, "In that case, we can use this opportunity to find a way to worsen their relationship and break their cooperation."
After hearing this, Mu Yun naturally understood his thoughts. He drank the wine in one gulp and asked in confusion, "Although they have a bad relationship, how can they fight each other?"
Li Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had an idea: "Sister Feng Xi, please share with Brother Li what you saw and heard that day."
Jin Fengxi, who was whispering with Yan An, looked at Lu Jingzhi, "Do I need to tell you something like this? Don't you know it too?"
"Sister Fengxi, he trusts you more."
There was a hint of panic in Mu Yun's eyes, and his expression was a little unnatural, but he quickly concealed it.
"Brother Lu, how can you tell that I trust her?"
"They look alike everywhere."
"I……"
Mu Yun was speechless and didn't know how to refute for a moment.
Lu Jingzhi chuckled and put his arm around his shoulder, "I'm an experienced person. Our sister Feng Xi is beautiful and pretty, but she's currently single."
"Seize the opportunity. I support you."
Suddenly, Jin Fengxi interrupted Lu Jingzhi, "It's too late for him to like me. Just yesterday, I met someone I like. Although he's not bad, there's no chance anymore."
Mu Yun was surprised by her sudden words, not knowing whether to be happy or sad "Oh?
"Then I, Li, would like to congratulate Miss Feng Xi. I wonder which young man is so lucky to have won her favor?"
Jin Fengxi smiled softly, a shy blush on her face. "Don't bother with this, Master Li. Anyway, there's no way between us."
"What! You met him! What does he look like? How strong is he?" Yan An put his arm around her shoulders, a curious expression on his face, a gossip gleam in his eyes, and asked impatiently.
"I'm not telling you because I want to keep you in suspense." Jin Fengxi's lips curled up slightly, and a sly smile flashed in his eyes.
Yan An snorted and pretended to be angry and said, "I don't want to know yet."
Mu Yun stood quietly by, watching Jin Fengxi and Yan An playing around, but a feeling of doubt arose in his heart.
[She really likes me!? ]
As he thought about it, he secretly glanced at Jin Fengxi's infatuated look, [It seems she really likes me!]
Should I tell her my identity?
