Chapter 300: Candidate for Sacrificial Flag
Being driven out of the bamboo house by Hua Changxi, Hua Sanlang was both embarrassed and angry, and at the same time had a belly full of grievances and discomfort.
He could see that Jiuniang didn't treat him as a brother at all, nor did she take him to heart. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so merciless.
In the spiritual field, Zhu Qinghuan saw Hua Sanlang returning in a hurry. She was a bit surprised in her heart. After Hua Sanlang approached the spiritual field, noticing that his face was very ugly, she hesitated for a moment, but still walked out of the spiritual field.
"Brother Hua."
Hearing the call, Hua Sanlang paused, turned his head, and saw Zhu Qinghuan walking towards him in the moonlight.
"Junior Sister Zhu."
After joining Pill Origin Peak, all apprentices spontaneously addressed each other as senior brother, senior sister, junior brother, and junior sister.
Zhu Qinghuan walked to Hua Sanlang, and seeing that his face was indeed not good, she asked with concern: "You look like you are in a bad mood. Did something happen?"
Hua Sanlang was just looking for someone to talk about the stuffiness in his heart. Thinking that Zhu Qinghuan had always been able to talk to him and was a sensible person, he couldn't help but reveal his thoughts.
"I just had a big fight with Jiuniang. Jiuniang really hurt my heart."
Zhu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and then looked around.
The moonlight was hazy, and everything was silent. It was the most suitable time to talk about heart matters.
"Brother Hua, if you want to find someone to chat with, I am willing to accompany you."
To avoid being seen by others, Zhu Qinghuan said to Hua Sanlang: "Brother Hua, why don't we sit on the ridge of the field."
Hua Sanlang nodded and walked to the edge of the ridge with Zhu Qinghuan. The lush spiritual rice just happened to cover the figures of the two.
"You should know that Hua Changxi is my sister, my own biological sister."
"Other people's families, once one person gets power, they immediately feed back to the family. But in our family, Jiuniang gets power, the family doesn't get much benefit, but adds a lot of trouble."
"The most chilling thing is that Jiuniang would rather believe outsiders than believe and promote her own family."
"Not to mention the use of people in the spiritual mine before, just say the opening of the Pill Origin Secret Realm, not only did the family fully support it, but also pulled the Hua clan to help her......"
Hearing this, Zhu Qinghuan couldn't help rolling her eyes and interrupted: "Brother Hua, to say something you don't like, you might really not understand the situation."
"It's not that you and the Hua clan are helping the Peak Master, it's that the Peak Master accepted you."
Hua Sanlang's heart was blocked: "Junior Sister Zhu, don't tell me you forgot, when Jiuniang was boycotted by everyone, we joined Pill Origin Peak at that time, and we took risks."
Zhu Qinghuan finally knew why Hua Changxi drove Hua Sanlang down the mountain. She also wanted to leave: "Brother Hua, I understand. You and your family only want to profit but don't want to take responsibility, right?"
Hearing this, Hua Sanlang seemed to have been caught in a sore spot, and exploded instantly, sternly saying: "Junior Sister Zhu, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhu Qinghuan looked directly at him: "Did I really say it wrong? Whether it is now or before the spiritual Qi revival, if you want to accomplish something, isn't it normal to take some risks?"
"How come when it comes to you, taking some risks seems to be a great favor?"
"Don't say you are not the first batch of people to join Pill Origin Peak. Even if you are, helping your own sister voluntarily shouldn't be a favor to ask for rewards, because by joining Pill Origin Peak, you yourselves have already benefited."
Hua Sanlang trembled his mouth, not knowing how to refute.
Zhu Qinghuan sighed: "Brother Hua, I actually understand the thoughts of you and your family."
"Maybe you didn't realize it yourselves. In your hearts, you feel that the Peak Master is a member of the Hua family, and she is a woman. Women don't have their own private property before marriage, so you naturally feel that everything she owns belongs to the Hua family."
"However...... now it's different from before. The most powerful person in your family is the Peak Master. If you want to rely on her to obtain resources, you have to bow your heads to her."
Hua Sanlang couldn't get angry at Zhu Qinghuan, so he could only say stiffly: "Is it possible that once one gets power, one can not recognize family, and can not care about family affection?"
Zhu Qinghuan smiled faintly and shook her head: "Brother Hua, let me put it this way. Do you think there is any family affection in the imperial family?"
Hua Sanlang frowned and said nothing.
Zhu Qinghuan continued: "Imperial family children, whether it is power or status, rely on the Emperor to give. This is no different in essence from your family relying on the Peak Master."
"Think about it carefully, how do imperial family children treat the Emperor? And how do you treat the Peak Master?"
Hearing this, Hua Sanlang felt very uncomfortable. He stood up with a "swoosh": "Junior Sister Zhu, are you here to comfort me, or to add blockage to me?"
Zhu Qinghuan stood up as well, her face unchanged: "Brother Hua, I could certainly say some nice things you like to hear to please you, but you are my friend. If I did that, it would violate my principles of being a person."
Hua Sanlang stared at Zhu Qinghuan for a while, and left quickly without saying anything.
Zhu Qinghuan watched Hua Sanlang walk away, shook her head and sighed: "No wonder Hua Changxi's temper is so impulsive. With such a family, it's estimated that her temper wouldn't be good even if she wanted it to be."
Since Pill Origin Peak recruited three Nascent Soul realm apprentices, Yu Fu and the four had become frequent visitors to the bamboo house, enduring the painful medicinal bath tempering every day, constantly improving their cultivation and strength.
At the same time, Hua Changxi's appearances in the first layer of the secret realm and on Pill Origin Peak also increased.
There were more and more apprentices on Pill Origin Peak, and relying on Yu Fu and the four was definitely not enough to manage them. She wanted to select a batch of people who truly identified with the construction concept of Pill Origin Peak to manage and strengthen Pill Origin Peak.
Moreover, the matter of cultivating pill refiners also had to be put on the agenda.
"Uncle Xu, go to Qihuang Pavilion and tell Shen Qianfan that in November, I will teach people how to refine pills in the No. 6 Qihuang Hall."
"Because there will be practical pill refining operations during the period, the hall certainly can't accommodate many people. Be sure to tell Yuan Tianchou that I will bring fifty apprentices, and on his side, at most fifty people can listen in."
After Pharmacist Xu agreed, he went to Qihuang Pavilion.
Soon, everyone in the Medical Department knew that Hua Changxi was going to give lectures in the Qihuang Hall again, and this time it was about how to refine pills.
Unfortunately, the quota was limited.
Just as Hua Changxi was picking out pill refiners to cultivate in the Personnel Department of Pill Origin Peak with resumes in her hand, the Northern Suppressing and Pacifying Division sent a message saying that traces of the demon race had appeared in the capital.
After Hua Changxi knew about this, she immediately contacted Tong Yao, Jing Le, and Yan Zhenzhen, and confirmed from the three that the Demon-Suppressing Army and the demon race had already fought twice.
Yan Zhenzhen also reminded: "Changxi, you must be careful. Recently, when I, Tong Yao, and Jing Le were patrolling, we all felt that someone was following us. We all suspect it is the demon race."
Because other secret realm masters also started to recruit cultivators from other regions, Hua Changxi's task of patrolling the Dongcheng was shared by everyone. It had been half a month since her last patrol of the Dongcheng.
Hua Changxi put away the resumes, called Wan Feng, and handed the two hundred resumes she picked out to him: "Divide these two hundred people into four groups and notify these people that they will take turns learning pill refining with me in November."
After speaking, she left quickly.
After Wan Feng watched Hua Changxi leave, he quickly flipped through the resumes. Seeing that Ye Lingxuan and the others were not in the resumes, he felt a bit regretful and disappointed.
"I don't know if the Peak Master will reuse Senior Sister Ye and the others?"
After Hua Changxi left the Personnel Department, she left the Medical Department and appeared on the Dongcheng Gate of the capital.
On the second floor of a gambling house three streets away from the Dongcheng Gate, the charming proprietress lay on the window, looking at Hua Changxi on the city gate, and licked the corners of her mouth with her tongue.
"Hua Changxi of the Palace of the Pill Saint has finally appeared."
The five great Holy Lands, the Central Holy Land has great terror, the demon race dare not provoke; there are also many old monsters in the three great Holy Lands of Weapon, Rune, and Array, so they must be careful.
Only the Palace of the Pill Saint is full of factions and chaos, and the most prominent Hua Changxi is a loner, with neither backing nor help.
In this way, they can only use her to sacrifice the flag to boost the morale of the demon race.
"Damn Demon-Suppressing Army, forcing me not to dare to go out. Tonight, I will join forces with the Four-Headed Duck to brutally kill Hua Changxi to deter the human race!" ===== CHAPTER 301 =====
