Although Hua Qiyue was a little confident, she didn’t wholly believe in herself. Therefore, she hesitated for a while. Finally, she watched Yun Shimo’s ck pupils and nodded.
She clearly knew about how Yun Shimo treated Tianci.
If he didn’t love and cherish him sincerely, then why did he adopt Tianci as his foster son? Because she had lived a lifetime, however, she had to take precautions. So, some time ago, Hua Qiyue had set a kind of forbidden art in Tianci’s body.
When Tianci was in danger, that kind of forbidden art would take effect. And there was a mysterious light group in his body. With double protections, Hua Qiyue could set her mind at rest.
"Let Tianci stay here to practice! "But I must go out. After all, I’m hiding inside, too. Queen Liu will know that we know of her secret plotting... The debts of Shui Qianruo and Queen Liu, I want to collect them for a long time!" Hua Qiyue said lightly.
With a look of worry, Ji Feng said, "Qiyue, are you really okay? I am just worried that you’ll be outside alone, and only Caiqing and Caining can protect you. If there is a high-level Qi Artist attack..."
"I... I can be the secret guard for her." A person said awkwardly.
Hua Qiyue looked at the man in surprise. The man was Huangfu Xuan. ’Hasn’t he always been arrogant?’ ’Who would have thought that he was willing to be her secret guard?’
"Hua Qiyue, you’re not powerful enough. It is better to have Royal Highness Huangfu’s protection in secret,"
Yun Shimo said lightly. He naturally hoped that there would be convincing people around Hua Qiyue. Even if they were not strong, several Qi Artists were not weak.
"I can also send a few outstanding pharmacy apprentices..."
"No, thanks. It is impossible for the Liu family to take action now. "Because they still don’t have full confidence. What’s more... I, Hua Qiyue, am not easy to deal with."
Ji Jing looked a little worried. She was not a genius in Qi Art, so it seemed that she couldn’t provide any help.
"Qiyue, there are ten shocking bombs here. When you are in danger, ignite them to let us know," Ji Feng said and handed a small bag to Hua Qiyue.
Hua Qiyue did not hesitate to ept them and thanked him. Then after arranging their actions, Yun Shimo went to the fourth floor to prepare some of the best medicine pellets immediately.
At this time, Hua Qiyue finally knew that Yun Shimo came here to make alchemy when he wanted to prepare medicine pellets for Tianci.
But because he didn’t believe in Hua Qiyue at that time, he made medicine in the public medicine hall.
And Hua Qiyue taught Tianci how to learn some mental practicing methods on the third floor. The little guy was so smart that he would get it with a bit of exnation.
Although Tianci was only six years old, he knew that something very unfavorable to Hua Qiyue had happened in the discussion among those adults just then.
So the little guy wanted to try his best to be powerful, to protect his beautiful and precious mom.
Hua Qiyue taught Tianci some mental practicing methods and left him so that he couldprehend them. Then, she also sat cross-legged on the stone couch and quietly entered the Mysterious World of her Divine Sense to practice.
After entering the Mysterious World, Tianpi also taught Hua Qiyue some killing arrays formed by runes.
Thebination of killing arrays and killing skills, in Tianpi’s words, was an absolute all-conquerer around the world.
Hua Qiyue knew that there were many significant tactical deployments in the world, but most of them had been lost.
And the Ruin Universe Tactical Deployment, one of the Five Greatest Killing Arrays, taught by Tianpi, was the toughest one among them.
It was challenging to remember runes. Although all of those shing runes had been put into Hua Qiyue’s brain, she would get a bad headache when she tried to think of one.
Hua Qiyue sat by the pool. After absorbing intense anima energy, she finally left the Mysterious World.
She had learned Tianpi’s Ruin Universe Tactical Deployment, which made her feel more confident.
Tianci was still immersed in the world of practice. This kid was indeed a talent in Qi Arts and could calm himself down.
Hua Qiyue felt very relieved.
When Yun Shimo came down from the fourth floor, his face was as pale as a white paper. Hua Qiyue stood up at once and asked, "You look terrible. Are you forcing yourself to refine medicine pellets again?"
The others hade out from the practice world. When they heard Hua Qiyue’s words, they couldn’t help butugh.
"There’s no one in the world who can force me to refine medicine pellets." Yun Shimo looked at Hua Qiyue with an angry look, handing her a big bag.
"There are ten Universe Revival Pellets. Take one if you are sneak attacked by others, or when unfortunately being at the gates of death. Even if someone breaks up your soul or there is only one breath left, take one, and you will be revived,"
Yun Shimo said unconcernedly.
Ji Feng looked at Yun Shimo in shock, "Brother Yun is really excellent. You could refine ten Universe Revival Pellets in just two hours. This kind of pellet ranks fifth in the Wind and Cloud Magic Pellets Ranking List. Although it can’t make peoplee back to life, if a dying person takes it, the King of Hell would not dare ask for his life! "Qiyue, with these ten remedies, you don’t need to worry about yourself."
"But, she also needs to have a breath left to take them," Yun Shimo said ruthlessly. Hua Qiyue turned over a supercilious look to him. She wasn’t convinced to admit his kindness, but her heart was filled with warmth.
’It is very harmful to an alchemist to make ten of this kind of medicine pellets in a short time, without a break.’
’Could it be that... there is a ce for me in his heart?’
Hua Qiyue felt that this time, she would be able to discard the resentment of being taken advantage ofst time.
"By the way, Brother Shimo, aren’t you very powerful? "You could protect Sister Qiyue, being by her side!" Ji Jing suddenly said andughed.
"That’s great! It is only natural for dad to protect mom!" Tianci’s voice chimed in. When they looked back, they saw the little fellow rushing forward with a red face and rubbing his face against Hua Qiyue’s clothes.
Everyone couldn’t helpughing. And there was some ambiguity in their eyes when they watched Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo.
Although Huangfu Xuan and Ji Feng felt somewhat lost, they had to admit that they were convinced in front of Yun Shimo. Because he was so outstanding that they thought he was pretty suitable for Hua Qiyue.
"Even if I am powerful, I can’t win against thousands of Qi Artists. "There are probably two or three thousand Qi Artists behind the Four Great Families. "Even if the Qi Arts are only at the lower level of Soaring Cloud, there is strength in numbers... It would have been better if I knew some killing arrays, but I don’t. "So, when we deal with two or three thousand Qi Artists together, whether we can live is also a question,"
Yun Shimo said calmly.
"What should we do now?" Ji Jing said with fear.
"Now, we can only do as I said before—outwit them with their own tricks," Yun Shimo said calmly. They still firmly remembered the n they had just made. When they recalled it, everyone had to admire Yun Shimo’s wisdom.
It waste at night. Hua Qiyue left the tall tower while Ji Jing stayed there to take care of Tianci.
Tianci was a sensible child. He knew that an imminent disaster was looming over Hua Qiyue. So when she left, he embraced her tightly and told her, "Mom, you muste back to pick me up."
"Don’t worry, I will,"
Hua Qiyue said in a low voice. A sudden sadness appeared in her heart, which was as painful as remembering Tianci when she was framed in her previous life.
Hua Qiyue left. She went back to the Hua’s Mansion to practice quietly.
The next day, Yun Shimo asked others to send her dozens of Divine Spirit Pellets, which ranked sixth in the list.
This kind of medicine pellets could increase one’s anima energy and strength, too, which could speed up one’s promotion.
It was worth millions outside. What’s more, Yun Shimo seldom refined this kind of medicine pellets for selling, so it was costly for the rich to get just one.
The following days were as calm as the surface of the water. But, beneath it, there was a massive storm being brewed by others.
——————
On that day, the Emperor was infected with a bad cold. Not being in good spirits, he did not go to court.
The concubines went to the Mental Cultivation Hall to see him one after another. Unfortunately, the Emperor refused to see them.
The First Prince and Huangfu Shenglin arrived at the same time. What surprised the concubines was that the Emperor granted them an audience.
The Changlong Emperorid t on the dragon bed. His face was pale, and he coughed a few times from time to time, which made the little eunuch on the side to frown.
"Your Majesty and Father, how are you?"
The First Prince and the Eleventh Prince entered together. After they prostrated themselves, the Emperor slowly opened his eyes and saw his two sons, which made him feel a little happy.
Emperor Changlong had numerous concubines, but most of their children were princesses. Although there were eleven princes, nine of them died very early; only two sons were alive, Huangfu Shenglin and Huangfu Changyu.
Naturally, the Changlong Emperor regarded sons as his life. Now his two sons went to visit him, which put him in a good mood.
"Your Majesty and Father, I heard that you caught a bad cold, so I especially came to pay you a visit. "Here are some Blood Cirction Pellets. I requested an alchemist to refine them. It’s said that they can dispel the cold and that they work very well!" The First Prince took the lead in offering his medicine pellets.
The Changlong Emperor was pleased after hearing that, replying, "Great! "I need this medicine pellet the most now." ’But the alchemists who can make this kind of medicine pellets need to be above the sixth grade.’ ’It seems that no one else in the Changjing Kingdom can refine them except Yun Shimo.’
"Were they refined by Prince Nan?" The emperor was in a good mood and asked casually.
"Your Majesty and Father, they were made by a new high-level alchemist recruited by me, not by Prince Nan. "Generally speaking, Prince Nan would practice alchemy for nobles without special circumstances," The First Prince answered. He belittled Yun Shimo inadvertently.
Now, Yun Shimo was an enemy in the First Prince’s heart. After all, that guy had decided to live his life with Hua Qiyue. He, the noble First Prince, lost to such a guy.
The Changlong Emperor heard and frowned faintly. He attached great importance to Prince Nan. However, as the First Prince said, Yun Shimo was not an ordinary person. Under normal circumstances, he would not make medicine pellets for nobles or royalty.
The Changlong Emperor looking up to him, to put it bluntly, was because he wanted to keep Yun Shimo from moving closer to an absolute force. In this way, his position as the emperor was also much more stable.
"But it is perfect for him to make this kind of medicine. Yu’er, you have to train that alchemist well," The Emperor said lightly.
"Yes, I will. It’s tough to find such a high-level alchemist," The First Prince said as he gloated. He nced at Huangfu Shenglin, with irony in his eyes.
They were all sons of the Emperor, but Huangfu Shenglin was calmer. He knew that the First Prince was mocking him for having no good medicine pellets.
While the prince wascent, Huangfu Shenglin waved his hand, and his little eunuch immediately presented a square samite box.
Huangfu Shenglin took it and handed it to the Emperor respectfully, saying, "Your Majesty and Father, this is a Universe Revival Pellet. It is especially suitable for the weakened as you are now. And it ranks fifth in the Wind and Cloud Magic Pellets Ranking List. "I requested Prince Nan to refine it."
After hearing Huangfu Shenglin’s words, the First Prince’s face changed abruptly.
