203 Zhan Aotian
Chapter 203
In the second round, Qiu Yi began to refine Qianyuan Dan. These materials were prepared by himself. Which pharmacist would come out with a storage ring filled with a bunch of spiritual herbs.
Zuo Wenfu began to refine Cuihong Dan. The refining techniques and steps of Cuihong Dan were clear in his mind. He didn't believe that he would lose to Qiu Yi by a small margin in this round.
Everyone knows that the medicine refining inheritance of Shengyuan Sect is the best medicine refining inheritance on Feihong Continent.
He has the best talent for medicine refining and the best medicine refining inheritance. How could he fail?
In the eyes of outsiders, the smell of fire and medicine between the two pharmacists who were sparring became stronger.
The disciples of Shengyuan Sect were no longer as complacent as they were at the beginning. They thought that it would be easy for Senior Brother Zuo to defeat Qiu Yi.
Who would have thought that Senior Brother Zuo would lose to Qiu Yi in the first round? Even though the difference was small, it was an indisputable fact that he lost.
Before, they looked down on the people from the Dongmu Dynasty. Now, let alone how they looked at the people from the Dongmu Dynasty, they didn't even look at the people from other forces. They thought that those people must be laughing at Shengyuan Sect.
It must be said that they were very self-aware. Although the other three parties were a little surprised, they did feel a little schadenfreude for Shengyuan Sect and Zuo Wenfu.
The person who took the initiative to challenge lost to the challenger.
But at the same time, they also increased their attention to Qiu Yi.
"No wonder Qiu Yi, who has long been known as a genius, did not lose to Zuo Wenfu in a competition. But such a Qiu Yi actually lost to the alchemist named Feng Ming? How high must Feng Ming's alchemy skills be?"
Just thinking about it is incredible. In their opinion, Qiu Yi's alchemy skills are quite high. If he wants to be higher, he must improve his cultivation.
But under the age of 30, it is very difficult to advance to the Yuandan realm before the age of 30, as he has to cultivate Yuanli and study the art of alchemy.
That is why among the five major forces, none of the alchemists and other professional skills who participated in the opening of the secret realm have reached the Yuandan realm.
It is because learning and practicing alchemy consumes too much time and energy.
"I also think there is a big problem. Feng Ming's cultivation is only at the early stage of Yuanye Realm. I heard that when he won the championship, he had not yet reached Yuanye. He was still a junior cultivator in Juqi Realm. How could
he defeat Qiu Yi and win the championship? What on earth is the Dongmu Dynasty doing?" Unfortunately, no one among them could answer this question. Feng Ming probably didn't expect that because of his low cultivation, the cultivators of other forces all questioned his level of alchemy to win the championship.
Fortunately, Feng Ming didn't know what they were thinking, otherwise he would have to personally refine the elixir on the spot to prove to them whether he had the strength to do so.
Just when Qiu Yi and Zuo Wenfu were firing on all cylinders and devoting themselves to refining the elixir, a few more people from the Ximing Dynasty came.
The crowd outside was squeezing in, which made quite a commotion. Feng Ming, who had just seen the medicine being made, was startled by the noise and looked over.
There were quite a few people like him. When they saw the crowd squeezing in, especially the couple at the head, they showed a look of understanding and amusement.
Feng Ming was curious and asked in a low voice: "Who are those people from the Ximing Dynasty?"
His father had been in the Ximing Dynasty for a period of time, so Feng Ming was a little curious about the situation there.
Wu Liyan and Ji Yuan looked at each other, and it was obvious that they both knew something about the situation.
Wu Liyan whispered, "The couple in front are the Fifth Princess and Fifth Prince Consort of the Ximing Dynasty. It is said that the Fifth Princess fell in love with this Prince Consort after she saw him. She struggled for a long time just to marry this man, and was even willing to accept his confidante."
Feng Ming's jaw dropped when he heard this, and he held his chin and gossiped, "How could the Emperor Ximing agree to their marriage?"
Who said that the Emperor Ximing did not agree? Didn't Wu Liyan call the man the Fifth Prince Consort? It was obvious that they were already married.
Wu Liyan was also full of gossip at this time: "Yes, it's strange, isn't it? The Emperor of Ximing actually agreed to this marriage and let his princess share the man Wu Fuma with other women. I have to say that this man is also very capable."
Ji Yuan also came over to gossip: "Fellow Daoist Feng, you don't know that the situation of the Ximing royal family is a bit special. The current Emperor of Ximing is actually not very capable. He can sit on the throne. "He was the emperor purely because of his good luck. He had a good mother who supported him to take the throne, and then the queen mother married her niece to the Ximing emperor. Now the Ximing palace can be said to be the territory of the aunt and niece. Even the aristocratic families they came from are constantly expanding their power and are the most popular at the moment. "
Bai Qiaomo was helpless when he saw these three people involved in the gossip about the Ximing royal family. What could he do? He had to tolerate it.
Well, Bai Qiaomo even thought that since Brother Ming was so interested in the affairs of the Ximing royal family, he should find time to go to Liuyang Pavilion to buy some information.
He had actually heard about the messy things happening in the Ximing royal family in his previous life, but as he was concentrating on cultivating himself and improving his strength, he wasn't very interested in it and didn't take it to heart, so now he could only buy information.
Feng Ming's eyes sparkled: "Really? The Ximing royal family is surnamed Chu, right? There should be many strong people in the royal family, and the Chu family should also have a strong man in the Soul-Opening Realm. How can they allow someone from another family to control the imperial power?"
Wu Liyan expressed her disdain: "That's because the current Ximing emperor is too bad. The empress dowager and her niece, the queen, are indeed capable and handy, but the people of the royal family turn a blind eye to it. Anyway, the next emperor will still be a member of the Chu family. Even if the remaining families gain power, they will never be able to turn over and become part of the royal family."
Feng Ming became even more curious. How bad was this Ximing emperor that even other people in the royal family did not think highly of him, and would rather let the empress dowager and queen from other families control power instead of the emperor.
"Then how could the Queen Mother agree to this marriage? Or is it that the Fifth Princess is not the Queen's biological daughter, so no matter who she wants to marry, the obstruction is not very thorough."
Ji Yuan smiled and said, "You guessed it right. This Fifth Princess Chu Daichen is indeed not the Queen's biological daughter. Moreover, Chu Daichen has caught the eye of the Emperor Ximing and is quite favored by this incompetent emperor. So the Fifth Princess is determined to get married, and the Queen Mother can't persuade the father and daughter, so she gets married. Anyway, it's not a big loss for them, the aunt and nephew. , and it is also a loss of face for the royal family."
What a big mouthful of gossip, Feng Ming continued to ask gossipingly: "The princess is called Chu Daichen, and what about the fifth prince consort? What is his background? I see him now, although he looks quite handsome, there is no shortage of good-looking men in our Feihong Continent. In my opinion, my brother Bai is no match for him."
Ji Yuan immediately looked at Bai Qiaomo with a joking look on his face. Bai Qiaomo coughed lightly, raised his head to look at the pillar over there, and his ears were a little red.
Wu Liyan looked at the Fifth Prince Consort sitting opposite her very honestly, then looked at Bai Qiaomo, compared them and said, "You are right. I also think that Fellow Daoist Bai is no worse than the Fifth Prince Consort. By the way, that Prince Consort's name is... eh? What's his name? Ji Yuan, do you remember?"
Ji Yuan added: "His name is Zhan Sheng."
Wu Liyan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's his name. I was busy with my cultivation, so I only heard about it once and didn't take it to heart."
Feng Ming was envious that he knew so much even though he didn't take it to heart. He still didn't know enough about melons.
Ji Yuan went on to introduce: "Zhan Sheng's background is not complicated. He is a bit similar to Fellow Daoist Bai. He was born into a small family and rose from the bottom. Later, he worked hard with a group of friends to first form a mercenary team and later developed it into a mercenary corps.
Now this mercenary corps is actually quite powerful in the Ximing Dynasty. Zhan Sheng is so young and handsome, so he is very popular with beautiful women.
In the process of Zhan Sheng's rise, the appearance of various confidantes is indispensable. In fact, Zhan Sheng's ability to expand the mercenary team into a mercenary corps is inseparable from these confidantes."
Feng Ming was eating melons with his eyes wide open. Why does this sound like the male queen Gong Wen from Qidian? This Zhan Sheng should not be called Zhan Sheng, but Zhan Aotian.
Now even the favored princess of the dynasty has thrown herself into his arms. Zhan Aotian has become the object of envy and jealousy of all the men in the Ximing Dynasty.
Is the next step to expand beyond the scope of the Ximing Dynasty and enter other forces, and then continue to attract confidantes to join his harem, and finally become the winner of life in the entire Feihong Continent, leading a group of confidantes to leave Feihong Continent and "ascend" to other worlds.
Bai Qiaomo has withdrawn his gaze from the pillar of heaven, and seeing Feng Ming's absent-minded expression, he secretly wondered if Brother Ming had thought of some novel routine again?
Yes, thinking back to the several routines that Brother Ming had mentioned, isn't there a kind that fits this Zhan Sheng very well, called the harem routine?
Thinking of the otherworldly soul that was still trapped in the Qingyanzhu space, Bai Qiaomo thought to himself, this person must be someone with a great background, and Brother Ming must be suspicious.
Wu Liyan was still gossiping with Feng Ming: "These women are really taking the wrong medicine. I don't see what's good about this man. A princess can actually allow this man to have other women around him. If I were her, I would have to find more concubines." Ji Yuan laughed
. For Wu Liyan, it was really possible. The Wu family had this tradition. Wu Liyan would definitely find a man to marry into the Wu family in the future.
Of course, now was her golden cultivation period, when she was advancing the fastest, and she would not consider these issues.
"Did you see the man next to him in the black suit? He is the fifth princess's younger brother, the sixth prince Chu Yunzhang of the royal family. He will also be the biggest competitor of Zong Yupao and Bai Daoyou. He was promoted to the Yuandan realm before Zong Yupao and I. So far, he is the most talented one among the descendants of Emperor Ximing."
"However, unlike our Dongmu royal family, because of Emperor Ximing's situation and the queen's power, Emperor Ximing actually does not have many descendants. In fact, it's good that there are not many, it's quiet."
Listening to Wu Liyan's sigh, Feng Ming said: "But the Ximing royal family is not necessarily quiet."
