A Demon’s Path

Ling Xiao just wanted to fight for the old man Tiancao, not really wanting to fight Luo Huixin. He didn't expect that things would turn out like this, which made him a little unexpected.

You know, Ling Xiao can take one less person with him now, so his goal is smaller. These two people want me to accept them as disciples, how can I have the mood and thought to teach them?

However, if they are so straightforward, they can do the ceremony of apprenticeship. If they reject them, wouldn't I be a bit too that?

Besides, these two are pretty good, so it shouldn't take too much time to give them advice. After teaching them, it would be a good choice to treat the two of them as free labor for refining medicine.

Moreover, to accept a female apprentice with such a personality is also... Hehe, tsk tsk, but only one eye is too damaging to the beauty, ahem.

With some nasty thoughts in mind, Ling Xiao made them stand up: "Your request is fine, but I have a habit of accepting apprentices."

The two quickly asked, "What habit?"

Yao Xingzi obviously had nothing to worry about, so Luo Huixin was a little worried.

She was worried, if Ling Xiao wanted her apprentice to warm the bed...

In Tianhun Continent, it is not uncommon for apprentices to warm their beds.

But when I think about it, my one eye is scary enough, this master probably won't take a fancy to me, will he?

"Ahem..." Ling Xiao pretended to cough twice: "My fee is not high, one million cyanites per person is enough."

When all the pharmacists heard that Ling Xiao had made such a condition, they couldn't help but "cut".

However, when they came to their senses and thought about it, one by one they threw themselves in front of Ling Xiao and shouted loudly: "Please take us as disciples, my lord! We have crystals!"

The scene became like this, which surprised the organizer, the young city lord Lan Ting. He had never seen so many people apprentice together.

Moreover, he still paid a lot of money to apprentice.

There are at least four hundred people in this event, and each person has one million cyanites. This income is terrible when you think about it!

Ling Xiao laughed strangely and said, "Everyone, it's not a problem to accept you as disciples, but not now. Three months later, I will compete with four other senior brothers in the Tiancao Sect to practice medicine. If you are willing to support me, I will give it to you." How about a 10% discount on your apprenticeship fee?"

Long Zhen, Long Yuxuan and their group were dumbfounded by Ling Xiao, and the spectators on the field made all kinds of strange noises.

Even the apprenticeship fee can be discounted, such a master is really interesting, haha.

"What the hell is Ling Xiao doing?" Zou Wei pouted with some disdain, and hummed.

Long Yuxuan smiled and said: "This guy is trying to build up his reputation. If Sect Master Amakusa's disciples only have us as followers, isn't it too shabby?"

Those who know Ling Xiao are also Long Yuxuan. This guy Ling Xiao has exactly this kind of intention.

How could he not do such a good thing that kills two birds with one stone while collecting the money?

When those pharmacists heard that Ling Xiao could take them to the Tiancao Sect to watch the pharmacy competition, they were all as excited as if they had been pumped.

For alchemists, it is difficult to improve after reaching a certain level, unless there is guidance from an expert.

Of course, watching high-level medicine refining competitions can also benefit them a lot. Some people may have an epiphany and improve their strength again.

With such an opportunity, even if Ling Xiao doesn't accept them as apprentices, they are still willing to spend the money!

Although Ling Xiao didn't reveal his identity, Ling Xiao's outstanding alchemy skills had already convinced everyone on the field, and no one would think that he was a bluffing liar.

"Master, this is my apprenticeship fee!"

"this is mine!"

These guys didn't care about the crystals at all, and they all handed over the crystals to Ling Xiao. What's more, I paid a little more.

No matter how poor a pharmacist is, with more than ten years of accumulation, he still has a million cyanites.

Yao Xingzi also handed in crystals, but Luo Huixin stood still, looking at Ling Xiao with embarrassment: "Master, I don't have so many crystals..."

Ling Xiao rolled her eyes: "No spar? Wouldn't you go to that guy to earn money? One and a half million lapis lazuli, you can keep half a million for yourself."

Lan Ting rolled his eyes even more fiercely than Ling Xiao: This guy, what master is this? Instead of teaching apprentices skills first, teach apprentices to collect money first.

Luo Huixin smiled, and instantly melted more than half of the ferocity on her face.

Ling Xiao secretly sighed in her heart, if this woman didn't have only one eye, she would be such a charming girl.

In the future, I must find a chance to heal her eyes. Maybe she will make a promise as soon as she is grateful, hehe...

Ling Xiao was thinking about some nasty thoughts again, and Luo Huixin had already walked in front of Lan Ting: "Lan Ting, I'll help you refine medicine, 1.5 million cyanite, deal."

Regardless of Lan Ting's willingness or not, Luo Huixin settled the deal by herself.

Because she knew that with Master around, Lan Ting would definitely be willing.

Ling Xiao waved at all the pharmacists: "Everyone, go back first. On August 16th, gather outside the Tiancao Sect and wait for your master!"

"Follow the master's order!" All the pharmacists knelt down again and left with joy on their faces.

Many of them are Yeluzi monks, and their masters are also not very popular. Their original apprenticeship is actually dispensable, and it is not difficult for them to change their masters.

After these people left, Ling Xiao counted his crystals, his eyes widened.

If there were not so many people here, he really wanted to scream twice.

Whoever has more than 400 million more lapis lazuli at once will definitely scream louder than Ling Xiao.

Of course, Ling Xiao held back.

Since Luo Huixin is willing to refine medicine for Lan Ting, this medicine refining competition is over.

Ling Xiao and his party, Luo Huixin, and Yao Xingzi followed Lan Ting and walked into the City Lord's Mansion.

When they saw an old man with a withered body like rotten wood in the city lord's room, even Ling Xiao couldn't help shivering in his heart.

Where does the city lord need longevity pills, what he needs is a pill to treat this strange disease!

Lan Ting's face was heavy, and said: "My father doesn't know what's going on, even though he has the strength of the four soul blue level, he can only lose weight day by day. And my son can only watch like this, helpless."

It can be seen that Lan Ting is a dutiful son. His love for his father was not fake at all, which made Ling Xiao faintly moved.

"Huixin, take a look for the city lord." Any illness can't be delayed, since Luo Huixin agreed, of course Ling Xiao asked Luo Huixin to diagnose it first.

Luo Huixin first used her powerful mental power to investigate carefully for the city lord Lan Shaoyan, and then shook her head helplessly: "Master, I can't help it. This strange disease doesn't seem like poisoning, nor does it seem like a disease. Injured, it looks like his lifespan will be exhausted, and there is no flaw at all."

Yao Xingzi originally wanted to go over and make a diagnosis, but when he thought that Luo Huixin, who was stronger than himself, could do nothing, he stopped making such a fool of himself.

Lan Shaoyan coughed dryly twice, with an old look: "Ting'er, don't worry too much for dad. If that man wants me to die, I can't hide from him."

"That person?" Ling Xiao kept an eye out, walked to Lan Shaoyan's side, and first checked Lan Shaoyan's body with his mental strength.

Same as Luo Huixin's diagnosis, it was purely near the end of her lifespan, and there was no sign of poisoning or injury.

However, Ling Xiao was not so easily discouraged, and continued to press her finger on Lan Shaoyan's pulse.

This exploration has revealed many problems.

Lan Shaoyan looked like he was near the end of his lifespan, but his pulse was beating vigorously, completely in line with the pulse beating of his four soul blue level.

However, Ling Xiao had checked Lan Shaoyan's seven souls with his mental strength, and the fluctuations in the seven souls' soul power were extremely weak, which was completely contradictory to this kind of pulse.

According to Ling Xiao's diagnosis, Lan Shaoyan's seven souls and body seemed to be separated by someone. The body is fine, but the soul power is exhausted.

However, if the soul and body were separated, why didn't Lan Shaoyan go out of his body directly and turn his body into a mummy?

Ling Xiao searched "Amakusa Compendium", and there is no such kind of medicine that can make people look like this.

Such a terminal illness made Ling Xiao embarrassed.

If Lan Shaoyan, the city lord, can't be cured this time, his Caozong's signboard will be destroyed that day.

"Could it be because of the Poison Cup Curse?" Ling Shiyu suddenly said, "The Ten Thousand Curses Sect has a spell combined with poison, which is very similar to the symptoms of the city lord."

"Poison Cup Curse?" Everyone turned their attention to Ling Shiyu when they heard it.

Being stared at by everyone, Ling Shiyu felt a little terrified in her heart, but she still stood up bravely and took out the curse book: "Let me try."

When the curse book was opened, a powerful curse force burst out from Lan Shaoyan's body instantly.

Ling Shiyu was caught off guard and was pushed out by this force.

If it wasn't for Xiong Xiao's palm hitting Ling Shiyu's back, Ling Shiyu would fly far away now.

Sudden by this change, Ling Shiyu's face turned pale: "It's such a strong curse power, with my current ability, even if I have a curse book, I can't eradicate it."

Lan Ting gritted his teeth angrily: "Why is this happening? Isn't Second Uncle a pharmacist? When did he even use curses!"

"Ting'er, don't talk nonsense!"

Lan Shaoyan immediately stopped his son, but Ling Xiao caught some clues: "Master Lan, if you don't tell us the truth, we really can't help you. Of course, if you tell us the truth, we will still It might not help you, but it's better than knowing nothing."

Ling Xiao spoke so frankly that Lan Shaoyan could only smile wryly and said, "Young master is really a real person. Since you all want to help, if I still hide it like this, I will feel really sorry."

Then, Lan Shaoyan told some secrets about the Lan family in the Western Continent, and all the gossip girls and gossip men were dumbfounded and exclaimed from the bottom of their hearts that it was enjoyable!
