“Master, there aren’t many mid-level alchemists in Martial City. Qi Tian has joined the Hundred Sparrow Pavilion, which has a lot of influence in Martial City. I’m afraid they won’t be easy to deal with.” Yun He knew a lot about the Hundred Sparrow Pavilion and was aware of its power.
Um!
Qian Youxue nodded, a wicked smile playing on her lips: "To deal with a villain, use the villain's methods. Don't worry, I have my own ways. Don't just stand there, sit down and have a drink and a bite to eat."
"Yes!" Baal obediently sat down, and Big Black followed suit and sat down next to him.
When Dahei saw the king kneeling before a woman, his eyes darted around and he said, "Sir, your spiritual power must be very high. Please give us lowly ones some pointers when you have time."
"Second stage of Xuanwu Realm!" Qian Youxue replied truthfully.
Pfft!
Baal spat out the wine he had just put in his mouth, wiped his mouth, and said awkwardly, "Master, are you joking with us?"
Is it really that contemptible?
Qian Youxue tilted her head back and finished the tea in her cup, then said lazily, "You can ask Yunhe if you don't believe me."
Yunhe nodded truthfully, but added, "Master only started cultivating about a month ago, and is currently at the second level of the Xuanwu Realm."
"One...one month!" Big Black raised his finger and stammered.
"Yes, my spiritual root was destroyed and was only repaired a month ago. What? You look down on my cultivation level so much?" Qian Youxue picked up a piece of roasted meat and stuffed it into her mouth, showing no trace of the demeanor of a well-bred young lady.
What the hell!
Baal felt that his talent was already good enough. It had taken him almost five years to go from beginner to Xuanwu realm, while this person in front of him had only taken a month.
One month? That's incredible!
No wonder Miss Yunhe is so willing to follow. With Miss Yunhe around, there aren't many in Xuanwu who would dare to touch their master, right?
Seeing their surprised expressions, Qian Youxue slowly spoke again: "That trash formation outside can be removed. We've eaten our fill, so we need to leave first. I'll teach you a better formation."
"Master knows formations?" Baal was surprised again, after all, his master looked too inexperienced.
Regarding array formations, Yunhe felt that even the old Valley Master might not be as skilled as their master. He said with a look of admiration, "You guys are really lucky to be following our master. Not only is our master knowledgeable in all sorts of profound array formations, but he's also a first-rate poison master. Hmm, why hasn't Sister Mei'er come in yet?"
"I'll go and call Miss Mei'er!" Dahei got up and was about to run outside when he heard Mei'er's voice coming from outside.
Mei'er, holding the plucked little black dog by the hand, was in a very good mood, seeing its listless appearance. One-Eyed Dragon followed beside her, bowing and scraping, his flattery impeccable.
"Master, look!" Mei'er threw Xiao Wu on the ground after entering the room.
Little Wu was heartbroken, and its eyes turned red. Seeing its owner looking down in thought, it deliberately chirped a few times.
How could Baal not see it? He had always cherished Little Wu as the apple of his eye, and now that his beloved was in such a state, his heart ached.
"Sister Mei'er, you've worked hard. Come on, have some meat, drink wine or tea as you please." Qian Youxue spoke as if she were at home.
Even though the owner didn't say a word when the other pet bullied it, it had to swallow its anger and lie on the ground no matter how upset it was.
...
"They were clearly coming this way, how could they have disappeared?" Leng Yu stood with her hands on her hips, spinning around in place several times. Apart from seeing a few low-level spirit beasts passing by, she couldn't see any trace of the princess and her entourage.
Leng Qing frowned, looking ahead. Soon, she nodded in understanding.
"An array?" Leng Yu understood Leng Qing's thoughts.
"It should be!" After confirming, Leng Qing took a few steps in the direction she saw.
The two circled the bushes in front of them, and Leng Qing made a few hand gestures, quickly locating the array's core. However, before they could even take a step forward, the core changed. Clearly, someone was operating the array from within.
At this moment, Qian Youxue and the others were standing at the center of the formation. She made a few hand gestures, adding another, more powerful formation to the original formation, and moved the center of the formation to a different location.
Such a fast technique! Baal didn't even remember it, let alone Little Black and One-Eyed Dragon. He had begged and pleaded with some expert to teach him this formation, and it seemed to be far more advanced than the one who had taught him before.
After Qian Youxue stopped, she found that everyone except Yunhe was in a daze, so she patiently explained the formation she had just seen.
After the second reading, Baal memorized it clearly. He had always liked formations, but unfortunately, without anyone to guide him, he had only learned the basics.
Seeing Baal nod, Qian Youxue took out a book from her body and handed it to Baal: "Pick this up and read it. I hope that when we meet next time, you will have a certain understanding of formations."
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!" Baal gratefully accepted the book, holding it carefully in his hands.
Mei'er blinked. Her master was so handsome; he even knew about formations. If the master knew how outstanding her young lady was, would he regret it so much he wanted to bang his head against a wall? She smiled slightly and said from the side, "Master, Mei'er wants to learn too, is that alright?"
"Of course, I'll personally guide you then." Qian Youxue's simple words made the people next to her extremely envious, even the little Wu perched on Baal's shoulder had a glint of jealousy in its eyes.
Yunhe smiled and took out two more bottles of pills, tossing them to Baal: "Take these and distribute them to anyone you think can use them. I hope your spiritual power will have made a breakthrough next time you come."
"Thank you, Miss Yunhe, thank you, Master!" Baal was overjoyed, holding the two bottles of pills.
Elixir!
One-Eyed Dragon swallowed hard, his eyes glazed over. Just a few moments ago, Master Xue had given him a single fruit; it smelled delicious, and he'd kept it to himself. Now she'd given the King two bottles. Just how rich was Master Xue?
"Tell the brothers to stop robbing these days. Focus on your cultivation. There will be things for you to do in a few days," Qian Youxue instructed Baal. She needed to quickly bring this lazy team together and establish their own power.
If we don't rob, what will we eat?
Dahei looked worried and hesitated as he looked at the king.
“Big Black, hard work pays off. This job might have been easier to do before. But a lot of unidentified people have come to Wucheng. You guys had better keep quiet lately.” Qian Youxue didn’t want her men to die before she even got a chance to use them, so she made her point clear.
Yun and Paipabal nodded: "Master is right, the city is very unsettled right now. Especially..."
"Is it because of the news of the War King's defeat? Sigh... The War King is quite pitiful. He was ruined at such a young age. He..." The one-eyed dragon muttered a lot like a sermon, completely unaware that Mei'er's face had turned darker and darker.
