Chapter 198: Shen Ting's Administrator
She is her father's daughter, after all!
The rightful Kunlun Goddess.
Lou Guanxue wants to seize it? She's dreaming!
Shen Qingli really dislikes nagging and trouble!
At such a grand ceremony watched by all, it could satisfy her aim of settling all hidden problems at once.
"Arrogant!"
"What are you thinking?"
Many immortals who have benefited from Lou Guanxue are criticizing Shen Qingli for being clueless.
Someone like Lou Guanxue, before the Great Calamity, would actually be considered a quite competent divine pharmacist.
After all, the only one who can actually refine a divine pill capable of healing the primordial god is none other than the Kunlun God Lord!
The healing divine pills refined by other divine pharmacists are at most useful only for titled gods other than the primordial god.
This is also why, over the years, the Kunlun God Palace has granted divinity to no one besides the Kunlun God Lord.
After all, the Kunlun God Lord is unwilling.
In his view, anyone who cannot refine a divine medicine capable of healing all beings is not worthy of being called a divine pharmacist!
He doesn't care about other places, he's too lazy to bother, but Kunlun—he will not allow it.
Shen Qingli issued a challenge to Lou Guanxue according to his standards, and also to the Queen Mother of the West!
The Queen Mother of the West is no fool; she immediately understood Shen Qingli's provocation, and her expression became inscrutable.
"I don't accept it!" Lou Guanxue refused.
Although she thought Shen Qingli couldn't possibly have the ability to refine such a divine medicine.
But what if?
After all, Shen Qingli is the daughter of the God Lord!
Lou Guanxue, who knows the truth, dares not bet and does not want to bet.
Titles are within easy reach; why would she rashly accept a challenge? If she refuses, who could force her?
She actually can.
The Queen Mother of the West said, "You must accept."
Lou Guanxue was stunned, "Your Majesty,"
"What she says makes sense. If the Kunlun God Lord's ordained divine succession truly has no one capable, then for the great plan of restoring the Divine Court, you are indeed qualified. If there is someone, you are not worthy." The Queen Mother of the West explained.
Lou Guanxue's face turned grim, "But,"
"I, the Supreme Elder."
"The old one is here."
The Old Supreme Elder, the deity who was named, has already risen.
To be honest, he has been in shock ever since Shen Qingli spoke.
Even now, his head is still buzzing, and he doesn't understand what happened at all!
He just rested in his own chambers for two days, and then everything changed like this?
"You and I, we'll be the judges."
"Not enough, the Tai Jin Emperor Lord also needs to be a judge."
Shen Qingli directly pushed Tai Jin forward; two out of three wins.
"As you wish." The Queen Mother of the West didn't waste words, "Now let's begin the pill duel."
Lou Guanxue's wishes? She doesn't care at all; she wants facts and evidence.
At this moment, Lou Guanxue was still giving signals to the Shaoguan Warrior, but he pretended not to see, as if he couldn't see.
Come on, that's his precious outstanding daughter; how could he possibly help outsiders instead of his own daughter?
As for punishing Zhong Minglan?
She has already received the harshest punishment.
So let it be; after all, she is the woman he favors, and one should show leniency when possible.
Besides, they still need to rely on Zhong Minglan to help raise the daughter.
Thinking of this, the Shaoguan Warrior feigned blindness even more thoroughly; as for that whatever medicine, if his precious daughter could actually refine it, what more would he need from Lou Guanxue?
At this very moment, the Shaoguan Warrior actually has great confidence in Shen Qingli, for she is ultimately the goddess who has awakened the power of the Four Spirit God Emperors! Being stronger, more omnipotent—these are to be expected.
In the center of the hall, an isolation formation has already been set up.
This is to ensure fairness, free from external interference.
It is also to seal the space, preventing divine pills from escaping.
It is well known that some divine pills can gain sentience, especially those refined by the Kunlun God Lord in the past—they are extraordinary beings.
Once they gain sentience, they naturally don't want to be slaughtered and will flee.
Of course, those refined by the God Lord won't; they willingly obey his arrangements.
"Your Majesty, the little immortal needs to regulate her breath and calm her mind in order to enter the pill-refining state." Lou Guanxue requested time to prepare.
"Poor students have many excuses." Jiu Li did not hide his sharp tongue at all.
Lou Guanxue's face looked grim, and she was about to scold!
Shen Qingli had already lightly tapped Jiu Li's head, "Nobody else knows she's lacking, you don't need to state the truth—people have let their guard down, they'll use you as a raft."
"Cough," the Old Supreme Elder suddenly spoke, "Um, Young Emperor Shen, here, use my medicine cauldron."
As the words fell, the Thick Earth Cauldron appeared before Shen Qingli, indeed solving one of her minor worries.
"Thank you, Old Lord." Shen Qingli stood up to express thanks.
"Don't be polite." The Old Grandmaster stroked his beard, "Your medicine cauldron was originally damaged to save Hou Tu; it's only natural."
The Queen Mother of the West blinked slightly, evidently not expecting Hou Tu to have been saved by Shen Qingli! She had thought it was also Lou Guanxue's doing.
The other immortals were even more astonished, "Lord Lao, is this really true?"
"Why would this old man lie? Besides, the facts will be revealed in any case."
Although the Old Grandmaster's head was still buzzing, emotionally he still leaned toward supporting Shen Qingli.
But in terms of strength, he truly had no confidence, yet that didn't stop him from cheering Shen Qingli on.
As for facts and evidence, he's not the Queen Mother of the West—he just likes the Young Emperor Shen, so what's wrong with being biased toward her?
Of course, under everyone's watchful eyes, if the divine pill refined by the Young Emperor Shen truly isn't as good as Lou Guanxue's, he also can't very well turn black into white.
"You two just refine your pills separately; with the isolation array in place, you won't affect each other." The Queen Mother of the West spoke up, showing no favor to either side.
Lou Guanxue let out a breath of relief and immediately sat cross-legged to regulate her breath.
She clearly understood that she had to bring out all her abilities.
If Shen Qingli were just spouting nonsense, then this would also be her chance to make a name for herself!
Otherwise, as long as her alchemy skill is good! She can still gain many benefits and exemptions.
'Lou Guanxue, you must hold steady!'
Lou Guanxue kept regulating her breath, letting her emotions calm down, even actively blocking all sounds and movements from Shen Qingli's side.
Shen Qingli saw all of this, "Not bad, she's got a bit of cleverness."
In her view, the previous Lou Guanxue would explode at the slightest provocation, almost foolish.
She had thought Kunlun was devoid of people, and that the Shen Ting were mostly petty villains, which is why someone like Lou Guanxue could speak up like that.
Now it seems Lou Guanxue might have been singled out so easily merely because of her status as the daughter of a deity.
'Widow'……
Everyone knows she harbors designs on her father.
Unfortunately, she sides with her mother; her mother likes her father, and she can see that.
As for her father, he obviously likes her too, just restrained.
If the parents like each other, what's the point of a third wheel?
Slap them to death!
Shen Qingli let out a cold laugh and began laying out the medicinal ingredients.
What she intends to refine is,
"Young Emperor Shen, could you please refine a Soul-transforming Pill?"
A strange voice rang out, yet it sounded sincere and earnest?
But beneath that surface emotion lay a hint of falseness very familiar to Shen Qingli—the taste of the Qin mother and daughter, which she recognized.
Have we lured them out?
It's someone from the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Shen Qingli looked toward the other party.
This person—no, wait, why does she feel a bit familiar?
