Pharmacist Leng glanced at Su Luo and said calmly, "Since he was able to let Li Yaoyao stay with him for half a year, it shows that Master is very optimistic about her. The candidate for the last disciple is most likely her."
Su Luo narrowed her eyes slightly.
Li Yaoyao has the Yao Chi Li family behind her, and she has already become so arrogant. If she is asked to worship Master Rong Yun as her master, then... Su Luo bit her lower lip, her mind full of thoughts.
Pharmacist Leng clearly disliked Li Yaoyao. He snorted twice, "Emperor Jing's words won't work on Prince Jin, but if Master Rong Yun orders Prince Jin to marry Li Yaoyao, and Prince Jin refuses... you're young and don't realize how many people in this world owe their masters."
Moreover, everyone who owes Master Rongyun a favor is a contemporary powerhouse, someone who can influence a region with just a stomp of their feet. Pharmacist Leng didn't say this out loud.
Su Luo originally thought that Master Rong Yun's decision to accept a disciple had nothing to do with her, and she was just listening to the story as a bystander.
But now, according to Pharmacist Leng, if Li Yaoyao is really chosen, then he will no longer have a foothold on this continent. This is a serious problem.
However, Su Luo frowned. Why was Pharmacist Leng trying to trick her into becoming his disciple?
Su Luo raised her eyebrows with a half-smile: "Pharmacist Leng, do you really want me to become your disciple?"
"I just don't like the girl from the Li family." Pharmacist Leng turned his face away.
"Do you think I will be chosen?" Su Luo asked seriously.
Pharmacist Leng shook his head and stated the facts directly: "The Li family girl has a chance of being selected that's over 90%, while you don't even have a 10% chance of winning."
Su Luo glared at him resentfully: "Then you tricked me into becoming your disciple? Aren't you deliberately making me cannon fodder? And cannon fodder for Li Yaoyao at that?"
"But nothing in this world is absolute. No one knows the outcome until the last moment." Leng Yaoshi looked at Su Luo with a smile. "Now almost everyone is against you and Prince Jin, but if you become Master's disciple, what will those people do?"
I have to say that Pharmacist Leng’s last sentence was extremely tempting.
Su Luo thought of Nangong Liuyun and the efforts and sacrifices he had made for this relationship, but she had always passively accepted it and had never taken the initiative to do anything for him.
Now, it's time for her to put in the effort.
"Okay, I promise you." Su Luo's face flashed with determination. "I just don't believe that with my talent as a junior alchemist who can refine intermediate-level spiritual essence pills, I will lose to Li Yaoyao, a woman who looks kind but is actually vicious and pretentious."
When Pharmacist Leng heard this, a smile flashed across his eyes.
The two talked for a long time, and the tea was getting cold.
The sun was shining brightly at this time, and Su Xi was kneeling in the courtyard with his back straight.
Su Xi finally grabbed a passing servant and wanted him to pass on a message to Pharmacist Leng, but the servant didn't even glance at her and walked away arrogantly.
Su Xi was extremely depressed.
At this moment, Su Zian came back irritably. Seeing Su Xi still kneeling, he couldn't help but feel a little angry: "Why are you still kneeling here?"
The sun was high in the sky, scorching hot. Su Xi felt dizzy from the sun. When she looked up and saw Su Zian, she suddenly became happy: "Daddy——"
Daddy said he went to ask for the imperial edict. It’s been so long, the imperial edict must have come eventually, right?
Facing Su Xi's expectant gaze, a hint of embarrassment flashed in Su Zian's eyes.
