Huan Feibai finally made it to the position of elder, and his future seemed bright, but he suddenly offended the young master, who might even be the future hall master. In order to save his life, he tried every means to make amends, passed the news to the woman, and asked her to come out to discuss the matter.
The other party agreed.
Still at the place where they usually exchanged pills, in order to gain the other party's trust, Huan Feibai took out the two pills that Ling Xiang gave him:
"Fairy, this was bought before the incident, and that's all we have. The owner of Jishidiang has discovered that we bribed their employees and has already driven them away. I'm afraid it will be difficult to buy Jishidiang's elixirs in the future."
The man was wearing a black robe and a cloak, covering his entire body tightly.
She accepted the pills and asked in a low voice, "I heard that someone sued Jishitang for not having the qualifications to sell pills, and it was ultimately determined to be a false accusation. Do you know anything about this?"
"I underestimated the enemy. I originally thought that if I lost the source of Jishitang's elixirs, I would use the tribute hatred to force out the alchemist behind Jishitang, and then promise him huge benefits. I don't believe there will be an alchemist who won't be tempted by the benefits of Dan Palace. If I subdue him, won't I be able to solve the problem once and for all?"
"Stupid!" Gao Zhenzhen, in disguise, wanted to slap Huan Feibai.
Ling Xiang was the disciple of the Alchemy Palace Master! How dare a mere elder like him challenge her?
Isn't this just alerting the enemy?
The other party reacted so strongly, obviously knowing that her actions would not gain any benefits in front of Ling Xiang. In other words, she might know Ling Xiang's identity!
Huan Feibai looked puzzled. "Why do you say that, Fairy? Although I didn't succeed this time, at least I know that Ling Xiang is not the useless person as the legend says. Not only can she practice, she is also an alchemist."
"What good does it do even if I know?" Gao Zhenzhen felt that the pills in her hand should be enough, and she didn't want to pay any more attention to this idiot. "Our deal ends here, don't look for me again!"
Seeing that she was about to leave, Huan Feibai blocked her way and said, "Fairy, I am an elder of the Dan Palace. You are calling me and dismissing me at will. Don't you take the Dan Palace seriously?"
Gao Zhenzhen seemed to have just remembered something and took out a magical medicine:
"This is what I promised you. Although the number of pills you gave me didn't meet my requirements, I don't mind. I've given you the things, and I don't have any other requests from you. You'd better keep your mouth shut and don't let anyone know about our deal. Otherwise, if something happens and affects you, I won't come to your rescue."
Huan Feibai had agreed to work for Gao Zhenzhen because he had taken the magic herb from her, but now, he wanted to live more than the magic herb.
He accepted the magic herb and said, "Fairy, I am a man of principle. I accepted your magic herb without completing the mission. Please at least let me know why. Why do you think my behavior is useless?"
Gao Zhenzhen would certainly not tell Huan Feibai that Ling Xiang was the apprentice of their Dan Palace's Palace Master. What if he turned against her and she couldn't defeat him? Wouldn't she be at a disadvantage?
"Ling Xiang even managed to put her own uncle in jail. Her methods are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary people. Your little tricks are not enough for her to handle." After Gao Zhenzhen finished explaining, she turned and left.
However, Huan Feibai still didn't intend to let her go: "Fairy, I haven't seen your true face yet. This elder feels very sorry."
Gao Zhenzhen acted condescendingly and said, "You'd better not delve into my identity, or you'll end up getting into trouble!"
Huan Feibai has always known that anyone who can produce such magical herbs must not be an unknown person, but compared to his life, these are not worth mentioning at all.
He reached out to lift Gao Zhenzhen's cloak: "Miss, you worry too much. Alchemists are most afraid of fire."
"How dare you!" Gao Zhenzhen quickly stepped back, trying to shout at Huan Feibai.
But Huan Feibai was not afraid and stretched out a hand to her firmly.
Gao Zhenzhen had come secretly without anyone else. Facing Huan Feibai's tough stance, she was helpless and could only take out the token from the Prince of Qin's Palace.
"Think carefully before you offend the Qin Palace! Because of what you've done for me, I can forgive your behavior. You should be thankful that you haven't seen my true face yet, otherwise, this day next year will be your death anniversary!"
The three words "Prince Qin's Mansion" are indeed effective. Huan Feibai stopped and looked carefully at the token in Gao Zhenzhen's hand. It didn't seem fake.
Since he already knew that the other party was from the Prince of Qin's Palace, he could complete the task, so he didn't take any risks and gave way.
Gao Zhenzhen left calmly, planning to hire a killer to kill Huan Feibai. She simply did not go back, but went to the underground killer organization in the capital - Rakshasa Palace.
Nothing can be done without money. She offered a lot of money, so someone took her order soon.
Things were going so smoothly that she decided to go all out and issued another mission to kill Ling Xiang.
The people from Luosha Palace accepted the order as usual. However, the target of assassination was the palace master's future wife. How could they dare to act on their own? They immediately told the news to the palace master of Luosha Palace, King Qin Nangong Yu, and sent people to follow the person who issued the task.
Gao Zhenzhen found a secluded place to change her clothes before heading towards the Prince of Qin's Mansion.
However, before she returned to Prince Qin's Mansion, Nangong Yu had already received the news.
She didn't know she had been exposed yet. When she returned to the yard, she saw Nangong Yu. She was very surprised and walked over quickly and threw herself into Nangong Yu's arms: "Prince!"
Nangong Yu had a blank expression on his face. "I had some free time today, so I wanted to take you out for a walk, but you weren't at home. I asked your maid, but she was vague. Zhenzhen, where did you go today?"
Gao Zhenzhen had already made preparations and took out the rouge she had bought on the road: "There's a new rouge shop that opened in the capital, it's really good, I went to buy some."
Nangong Yu's expression was gloomy and inexplicable: "Let the servants do these things. You are not well yet, so you shouldn't run around."
Gao Zhenzhen explained, "Your Highness, you don't understand. Rouge is something you have to try yourself to know which one suits you best. A maid can't buy a rouge that suits my taste."
"What else did you do after buying the rouge?"
Gao Zhenzhen thought about it carefully and shook her head: "Nothing special, just casually strolling around."
Nangong Yu was very disappointed, but because of Gao Zhenzhen's heart disease, he did not expose her: "You have been out for so long today, you must be tired. Go to bed early." Nangong Yu got up and left.
"Your Highness!" Gao Zhenzhen hugged Nangong Yu's waist and said, "You haven't come to see me for several days. Can you stay and keep me company?"
Nangong Yu pried Gao Zhenzhen's hands apart: "Be good, go and rest."
Gao Zhenzhen was rejected, and a strong sense of crisis rose in her heart. She reluctantly let go and asked, "Prince, when will you break off the engagement with Ling Xiang?"
Nangong Yu calculated carefully and found that the three-month deadline agreed with Ling Xiang was already approaching.
He was inexplicably irritated. "Take good care of yourself and don't think about anything. Also, Rakshasa Palace is not a good place. Don't go there anymore."
