Chapter 184 Speechless
Zhong Hong met Zhao Qianqian's pleading eyes, knowing that if he continued to stop her, he would probably completely destroy the last bit of hope for the Third Miss whom he had watched grow up, so he could only nod.
Forget it. The situation can’t get any worse now, so we might as well give it a try.
Maybe Miss Lin really has a way to help the Second Young Master escape the crisis of becoming a cauldron.
"Let's talk while we walk." Lin Zhao took out the energy crystal - the spirit core - from the demon ape's corpse. He wanted to stuff the spirit core into the space ring, but then he remembered that he couldn't use spiritual energy yet, so he could only wrap it in a handkerchief awkwardly.
She looked at the huge corpse of the spirit beast and felt reluctant to leave.
Seeing this, Zhong Hong said, "I wonder if Brother Lin is willing to sell this body to us? We will give you three times the market price."
Lin Zhao's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Thank you very much!"
The mermaid Zhong Hong took out a space ring, removed the restriction on it and handed it to Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao took it and said, "Twice the price is enough."
Grandma Honghu, who had been silent the whole time, said, “I thought you would give it to them for free.”
"Let's put it this way." Lin Zhao said, "I will not refuse the benefits that are mine. Besides, in Zuhuang Continent, more money means more options."
"Isn't what you said weird?" Grandma Honghu asked in confusion.
Lin Zhao said, "Don't worry about it, Master. I will join the Phoenix Medicine Sect when my injuries recover. It's better to find out the situation before joining."
Their transaction was completed quickly. The people in the convoy dealt with the body, and Zhao Qianqian pulled Lin Zhao to her golden carriage.
"Although there is a gap compared to you, my eldest sister Zhao Lianwei is the most beautiful woman in the Northwest Continent, and she has good talent in cultivation. When the elder of the Phoenix Medicine Sect came to recruit disciples, he saw her talent and said that as long as she breaks through the late Jindan stage before the age of 20, he will accept my eldest sister as an inner disciple. But it was also during that time when my eldest sister had not yet become an inner disciple of the Phoenix Medicine Sect that my second brother was accidentally noticed by the deacon of the Phoenix Medicine Sect."
Lin Zhao propped up his chin and asked, "That deacon wants your second brother to be her Taoist partner?"
"If it's a Taoist couple, then we are lucky for a city on the border of a remote continent like ours. The deacon just took a fancy to my second brother's extremely yin physique."
Lin Zhao opened his mouth wide: "Extreme Yin constitution? Your second brother?"
If she remembered correctly, the extremely yin constitution usually only appears in women, such as Ning Wengui's mother, and it is difficult for people with this constitution to practice.
If it is a boy, the yang energy of his natural gender will conflict with his extremely yin constitution, and he will die at birth.
How did Zhao Qianqian's second brother survive?
Grandma Honghu said, "It may be what I am thinking. If this is the case, little girl, your luck is really good. The previous purple pupil glass body, plus this Zhao Er, no matter which one you take, it will be of great benefit to you."
Lin Zhao held her forehead with her hand and said, "Teacher, if you keep saying these nonsense, I will ignore you."
Grandma Honghu: "...disrespectful to teachers."
Grandma Honghu, who could not get Lin Zhao's cooperation, was so depressed that she remained silent.
Zhao Qianqian sighed, her bright and beautiful face now filled with gloom: "You also know that people with extremely yin constitutions are not suitable for cultivation, but they are born with the material for converting spiritual energy. As long as you have intercourse with them, you can purify and refine spiritual energy through them, so they are top-grade furnaces."
Lin Zhao wanted to say, I am actually more curious about how your second brother survived.
"So, the deacon specifically asked my second brother to be her medicine man."
Medicine man?!
"You don't even want to give me the identity of a male servant." Zhao Qianqian bit her lip: "After all, all the famous people on the opposite side of the Phoenix Medicine Sect have been registered, even those who serve them. If my second brother goes in as a male servant, if something unexpected happens while making the furnace, the deacon will also be recorded."
Lin Zhao listened and could only conclude, "They are quite humane."
"But the current Phoenix Medicine Sect... Ever since the Sect Master went into seclusion and the Second Elder took power, many of the rules set previously have loopholes. For example, this rule, although all people must register, my second brother is not a cultivator, and the medicine man is just a medicinal ingredient, which will not be recorded in the sect's record book."
Lin Zhao frowned: "So the Phoenix Medicine Sect's deacon might actually want to kill your brother?"
"Yes." Zhao Qianqian gritted her teeth and said, "Unfortunately, we are too insignificant to even get a male servant position for our second brother. We can only rely on the elder who wanted to take our eldest sister as a disciple to get this deacon to give in and delay his intention."
Lin Zhao pondered over what Zhao Qianqian had said before: "What you meant before was that if your second brother had a wife, and this wife was a direct disciple of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, the deacon would not dare to say anything?"
"Yes, no matter how courageous she is, she wouldn't dare to compete with the disciples of the Phoenix Medicine Sect for her husband!" Zhao Qianqian nodded fiercely.
Lin Zhao thought for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, I probably can't be your second brother's wife or something like that."
This kind of identity sounds very unpleasant. If I were to bear any consequences, I would not be able to bear it.
"But if your Zhao family produces a successor to the Phoenix Medicine Sect, the effect will be the same, right?"
Hearing Lin Zhao's almost whimsical words, Zhao Qianqian was stunned, looking at her, and finally said: "Sister Zhao Zhao, although a seventeen-year-old in the Fusion Stage is very powerful, you definitely can't be the heir of the Phoenix Medicine Sect."
Although very rare, the Phoenix Medicine Sect is not short of geniuses of this level.
Lin Zhao was full of ambition: "I will find a way, just tell me, right?"
Zhao Qianqian pursed her lips and said, "If you don't want to help, forget it."
Lin Zhao knew that her words were far-fetched, so she finally compromised: "I can't be your wife. For the time being, I'll just tell everyone that I'm your second brother's fiancée. Of course, your second brother must agree."
Zhao Qianqian hugged her and said, "Don't worry! I will definitely convince my second brother!"
Lin Zhao covered her face in distress.
Carrying sorrow all the way, Lin Zhao followed Zhao Qianqian back to the city. After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, he soon met the legendary Second Young Master Zhao.
The other person was wrapped in an inky black cloak, without even extending his hands. His inky hair hung casually on his shoulders, revealing only a thin face.
Unlike his frail body as rumored, the Second Young Master Zhao had a pair of sharp and clear eyes, and his thin, bloodless lips were slightly pink in the sunlight, and were gently pursed.
When he looked at people, he had a cold and stern look that kept them at a distance.
Lin Zhao and Zhao Qianqian discussed: "Why don't we switch identities? I feel like if he and I pretend to be a couple, we'll be exposed in a minute."
The other party looked like he was going to hit him.
Zhao Wuyan's eyes fell on his sister, and his slightly angry eyes regained some warmth, and the subtle sharpness on his body was also restrained. "Qianqian, I said, don't worry about your second brother, your second brother can handle this matter himself."
Zhao Qianqian took a few steps forward and said, "Second brother, just promise me, okay? Sister Zhao Zhao is different from those female scammers before. She can definitely do it! She is only seventeen years old and is already in the fusion stage!"
Zhao Wuyan sighed softly, and met Zhao Qianqian's gaze that said "If you don't agree, I'll start to make trouble." He could only reach out his hand from his cloak and touch her head: "Second brother is causing you a lot of trouble."
