"By the way, I haven't introduced myself to Brother Zhou yet. I'm Yao Ze, the eldest son of the fourth branch of the Yao family and the third son of the Yao family. Xuewei is my seventeenth sister."

The third son of Yao still smiled.

Zhou Qing listened to Yao Ze's explanation and roughly understood the whole story. Seeing that Yao Ze had lowered his posture, he also walked down the stairs.

"So you are Miss Yao's brother. I'm so sorry."

"No, no, we didn't know each other until we fought. I'm sorry for offending you just now. I hope Brother Zhou won't be offended." Yao Ze's smile became more and more enthusiastic, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The letter Zhou Qing sent to the Yao family was intercepted by the fourth branch, because a few months ago, Yao Xuewei left a letter from Southern Xinjiang and ran away from home.

The fourth branch found out that it was because Yao Xuewei had a close relationship with Zhou Qing when she was in Southern Xinjiang.

After some investigation, the fourth branch found that Zhou Qing had a good talent in martial arts and could be called a genius in Jinyun Mansion.

Judging from the speed of cultivation alone, Zhou Qing has a great hope of surpassing the husband they chose for Yao Xuewei in the future.

However, for a wealthy family like the Yao family, Zhou Qing's conditions are not enough to make them change their minds.

After all, there are countless geniuses stuck in the bottleneck of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, wasting their lives and not being able to enter.

If the Fourth Branch of the Yao Family is not prepared to marry the Xie Family, then Zhou Qing is naturally a good match. As long as he is good enough, the Yao Family does not have any prejudice against family status.

But the ancestor of the Xie Family is only one step away from breaking through the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top.

On the one hand, it is to marry the Xie Family and establish a close relationship with a rapidly rising family, and on the other hand, it is to bet on the uncertain future of a genius. The Fourth Branch of the Yao Family does not need to hesitate at all.

Especially the eldest lady of the Xie Family is more talented and has entered the Shendu Martial Academy. Her future achievements will only be higher than Zhou Qing, and more importantly, she has connections.

The Fourth Branch has been in a slump since Yao Ze's father Yao Tian, ​​the head of the Fourth Branch, was seriously injured and bedridden.

Yao Ze, the eldest son of the fourth room, the third son of the Yao family, has mediocre talent. Now he is 28 years old, and he has barely cultivated to the bone refining realm.

As for Yao Xuewei, she was born to a maid of the fourth room after Yao Tian had sex with her after drinking.

If it weren't for Yao Xuewei's excellent talent, her name would not be included in the family tree.

This time, the Yao family and the Xie family are getting married, and the fourth room really can't pick anyone. Those with good looks and temperament, but poor martial arts talent, will sooner or later be rejected by the second son of the Xie family as they grow older.

After all, as long as you cultivate to the blood exchange realm, regardless of your strength, just delay aging to a large extent. If you have outstanding looks and strength, plus the help of your mother's family, it will not be a problem for you to be a mistress in the Xie family.

It's a pity that the women with decent martial arts talent in the fourth room are not outstanding enough.

Only Yao Xuewei, except for her slightly poor background, is outstanding in all other aspects. Now she is already a great martial artist in the blood smoke realm who has exchanged blood four times.

The first branch of the Yao family is very powerful, with two top martial artists who have exchanged blood twelve times.

The second eldest son of the second branch, Yao Ze's second brother, has super roots and is deeply loved by the ancestors.

Although the third branch has no children, the eldest daughter of the third branch married the legitimate son of a large family in the neighboring Tianxuan Mansion, and will also be the head of a large family in the future.

Only the fourth branch has been declining over the years. If it continues like this, the fourth branch will exist in name only in a few years.

The second son of the Xie family has a noble character and is well-known in the Jinyun Mansion. He is a good match.

Now the fourth branch has paid a considerable price and reached an engagement with the Xie family, so naturally no one is allowed to destroy it.

Now the news that Yao Xuewei ran away from home has been blocked by the fourth branch, but with the arrival of Zhou Qing, this news can no longer be concealed.

Once the other three branches know about it, it may not be bad.

For the Xie family, the marriage with the Yao family is a family strategy that will not be changed easily, but which branch to marry is not the focus.

If they can ruin the Fourth House and benefit their own house, the other three parties will definitely do it.

Because even between blood relatives, there is no family affection in the face of absolute interests.

Especially the open and secret struggles between the Second House and the First House in recent years are nothing more than competing for the resources to break through the Three Flowers Gathering Top.

Even the Yao family, the leading family in Jinyun Mansion, has very limited high-level resources.

The two people in the First House who have reached the peak of twelve blood exchange have failed to break through once.

As for the eldest son of the Second House, he has now broken through to the eleventh blood exchange, so naturally he has to consider competing for the resources to break through the Three Flowers Gathering Top.

In the early years, although Yao Xuewei did not want to be a tool for marriage, she did not show extreme resistance. Even if she went to work in the Southern Xinjiang Demon Suppression Division, it was the result of consultation with the Fourth House.

Now she ran away from the marriage directly for Zhou Qing, which was unexpected by the Fourth House.

If Zhou Qing caused the Fourth House to offend the Xie Family, and then let the other three houses intercept and marry with the Xie Family, it would be counterproductive.

However, the matter was exposed, and the Xie family sent people to inquire about the situation.

At this time, Zhou Qing rushed to the city and sent a visiting card and a letter. For Yao Ze, it was simply a mockery of the fourth room.

So he immediately sent people to inquire about Zhou Qing's residence, and then summoned the two coaches of the fourth room, ready to teach Zhou Qing a lesson and make his attitude clear to the Xie family.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qing's strength was amazing, and he hit the two coaches without any ability to fight back.

But Yao Ze was not afraid, because in this Jinyun City, no one dared to challenge the Yao family.

However, the sudden arrival of Xie Feng, the manager of the Xie family, was beyond Yao Ze's expectations.

Especially the explosive news brought to him by Xie Feng directly stunned Yao Ze.

Zhou Qing turned out to be a second-level low-level alchemist, and he also had a second-level high-level alchemist teacher.

In an instant, Zhou Qing's status in Yao Ze's mind has surpassed that of the second son of the Xie family.

Especially Xie Feng made it clear that he wanted Yao Ze to give the Xie family some face, indicating that the Xie family was prepared to win over Zhou Qing.

A second-level high-grade alchemist is a guest in any wealthy family, second only to the great master.

So in Yao Ze's eyes, Zhou Qing went from a troublesome person to a hot favorite in an instant.

The twenty-two-year-old Qi-Blood Wolf Smoke Realm great martial artist was excellent, but not enough.

The 22-year-old second-level low-level alchemist is very good, but also a little bit behind.

But if you have both, you are a genius!

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, that's good." Xie Feng took the initiative to step forward. Yao Ze's attitude was unexpected, and he couldn't help but regretted telling Yao Ze the truth just now.

The main reason is that there are rumors that Yao Ze, the fourth member of the Yao family, is a playboy with a perverse temperament.

That's why he was afraid that Yao Ze would not give him face and insisted on causing trouble for Zhou Qing, so he told Yao Ze the details of Zhou Qing and Zhou Chaoxian.

Unexpectedly, Yao Ze lowered his attitude instantly, almost to please.

Apparently, he also wanted to win over Master and Disciple Zhou Qing.

"Your honor has just purchased a batch of medicinal materials from Xie's Trading Company. Some of them are out of stock and will be delivered in the next few days, so I will pay a visit and explain the situation to Brother Zhou."

Seeing that Yao Ze was about to speak, Xie Feng took the lead.

"Please also ask Brother Zhou to tell your honorable master that Xie's Trading Company will do its best to find the medicinal materials that your honorable master needs! Please also ask your honorable master to wait patiently."

"In that case, I'll thank you for your help." Zhou Qing bowed his hands.

"I don't dare to take it seriously. Since your honorable master has agreed to cooperate with the Xie family, the Xie family business will naturally do its best." Xie Feng said with a smile.

"Some medicinal materials require higher authority. I have to return to Emerald Valley to report to the clan leader, so I won't bother Brother Zhou anymore, so I'll take my leave."

"Thank you, steward, for taking your time." Zhou Qing smiled slightly.

Xie Feng bowed his hands to Zhou Qing. Seeing that Yao Ze had no intention of leaving, he took the initiative and said: "Third Young Master, please take a step to speak. I also want to ask you something."

"This" Yao Ze was startled, his eyes changed slightly, then nodded and said: "Thank you for asking me in advance."

With that said, Yao Ze saluted Zhou Qing again.

The two went down to the third floor together.

After the two left, Zhou Qing called the waiter and the shopkeeper to compensate for the damaged furniture and walls, but was told that Yao Ze had already paid three times the market price.

Seeing many passers-by watching on the street, Zhou Qing apologized to the shopkeeper, packed up his luggage and left, staying at a restaurant.

At night, Zhou Qing was sitting at the table sipping tea leisurely when he heard footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.

"Brother Zhou, I'm here to visit Yao Ze late at night. I wonder if I can talk to you in person?"

Yao Ze's voice came from outside the door.

Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows, waved his sleeves, and the door opened.

Yao Ze stood alone outside the door. After entering the room, he bowed to Zhou Qing and bowed, bending at 90 degrees and lowering his posture to the extreme.

"What happened during the day has offended me a lot. Please forgive me, Brother Zhou."

"Master Yao said something serious." Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand to support him.

Yao Ze felt a powerful invisible force lifting his body, straightening his waist uncontrollably, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

It seemed that Zhou Qing had shown mercy during the day, otherwise the two coaches would not have suffered minor injuries, and they would have valued Zhou Qing even more.

"Actually, there were many misunderstandings about what happened during the day. Brother Zhou, please tell me the whole story in detail."

Yao Ze bowed his hand.

"Master Yao, please speak." Zhou Qing motioned for Yao Ze to sit down and said.

"Actually, the matter started half a year ago with Seventeenth Sister."

After Yao Ze sat down, he explained the situation to Zhou Qing.

"What? You said Miss Yao ran away from her marriage? It happened not long after my letter was sent?" Zhou Qing was startled. No wonder Yao Ze took action directly when he came today. It turned out that he was the culprit who kidnapped Yao Xuewei. .

"Yes, now that this matter has been known to the Xie family, another storm will inevitably follow."

Yao Ze's face was solemn, and he immediately changed the topic and asked: "Listening to the meaning in Brother Zhou's letter, could it be that the reason for coming here this time is for Seventeenth Sister?

In fact, the seventeenth sister and the second son of the Xie family have never met, and the marriage was promoted by the fourth family.

If Brother Zhou and Sister Seventeen are in love, I can ask my mother to make peace and pay some price to terminate the engagement with the Xie family. "

Zhou Qing was speechless for a moment.

"Brother Zhou may think that I am too realistic, but family members like us, while enjoying the convenience brought by the family, have to pay some price.

None of us have the right to choose life-long events, we can only follow the arrangements of our family.

The marriage arranged by the fourth room for the seventeenth sister was something that many elders and younger sisters in the clan could not ask for. "

Seeing Zhou Qing's silence, Yao Ze continued.

"Mr. Yao may have misunderstood. Although Miss Yao and I are old friends, we are not in love with each other. The main reason for coming here this time is to repay a favor that Miss Yao had done back then. I want to help her terminate her engagement and give her her freedom. In addition, I came to Fucheng to purchase some rare medicinal materials for use in elixir making."

Zhou Qing explained.

"It seems that I have made a mistake." Yao Ze couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"If Brother Zhou just wants to help Seventeenth Sister break off their engagement, I'm afraid it won't be an easy task. The Xie family won't let it go easily."

In Yao Ze's opinion, if Zhou Qing marries Yao Xuewei and joins the Yao family, with his status as a second-level low-level alchemist and a teacher who is a second-level high-level alchemist, it will be enough for the Yao family to break the contract.

There is no other way.

No matter how this matter was said, it was a slap in the face of the Xie family. Unless a sufficient price was paid, the fourth house did not want to offend the Xie family.

"My master can solve the problem with the Xie family. Master has agreed to help the Xie family refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill. I believe the Xie family knows the priorities." Zhou Qing said seriously.

"Tianling Pill?! Brother Zhou is talking about Tianling Pill?!" Yao Ze looked shocked. Tianling Pill is the most difficult to refine among the second-level pills. He didn't expect Zhou Qing's teacher to have it. With the ability to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill, it seems that Zhou Qing's teacher is not an ordinary second-level high-level alchemist, and may have already touched the threshold of third-level alchemy.

Such a person, even the ancestor of the Yao family who saw the beginning but not the end of the dragon, would also treat him seriously.

If the boss knew about it, he would probably take action immediately and use various means to win over him.

"With the teacher's alchemy skills, it shouldn't be a problem to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill. What's missing now is just the old Heavenly Spirit Fruit." Zhou Qing said firmly.

"This..." Yao Ze's expression suddenly became exciting. In his early years, his father Yao Tian went out to fight for elixirs in order to attack the Three Flowers Gathering Realm, but was plotted by the enemy. Although he tried his best to fight back, , but he was also seriously injured, resulting in severed meridians and bedridden.

In addition to strengthening the meridians and assisting in the attack of the three flowers gathering at the top, the Tianling Pill is also very effective in repairing the meridians, but it must be a middle-grade or even high-grade Tianling Pill.

In the entire Jinyun Mansion, no alchemy master can guarantee that he will be able to make a middle-grade Tianling Dan.

Moreover, one or two middle-grade Tianling Pills cannot cure the injury of severed meridians.

In recent years, the fourth family of the Yao family has declined, also because Yao Tian was seriously injured and bedridden, and the other three families were suppressed.

After all, high-end resources are limited. If you lose one room point, others can get a lot more points.

However, his father Yao Tian has always had a secret that only Yao Ze knows. That is when he competed for the elixir, he got two Heavenly Spirit Fruits and an accompanying Wooden Spirit Grass.

Two Heavenly Spirit Fruits, one for two hundred years and one for three hundred years.

Originally, Yao Tian dedicated the two-hundred-year-old Heavenly Spirit Fruit to his family in exchange for the family finding an alchemist to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill to restore his injuries.

As a result, the clan leader gave the refined Tianling Pill to Dafang to help him attack the Three Flowers Gathering.

From then on, Yao Tian decided to hide another three-hundred-year-old Heavenly Spirit Fruit and leave it to the next generation.

In recent years, Yao Tian's condition has worsened, so he informed Yao Ze about this and asked him to pass on the Tianling Fruit and Wooden Spirit Grass.

"Brother Zhou, if I can find a way to get the Heavenly Spirit Fruit from Xie's family, how many Heavenly Spirit Pills can my respected master refine?" Yao Ze calmed down and asked.

"One hundred-year-old heavenly spirit fruit can be fired four times. With Master's alchemy skills, there should be at least two or three."

Zhou Qing pondered and made a conservative estimate.

"What if it's a two-hundred-year-old Heavenly Spirit Fruit?!" Yao Ze asked again.

"The furnace can be opened eight times, and there are at least five or six Chengdan." Zhou Qing responded, the Tianling Fruit will double in size every hundred years.

The more times he refines alchemy, the higher his success rate, because the progress of alchemy can only advance and never retreat. As long as he succeeds once, his proficiency will greatly increase.

"It's not that I don't believe in respecting my master, but this matter is of great importance." Yao Ze hesitated. Even though Zhou Qing and Yao Xuewei had a close friendship, he didn't dare to reveal the alchemy skills of master and apprentice Zhou Qing since he had never seen it with his own eyes.

"If Mr. Yao can get the Heavenly Spirit Fruit, I believe the teacher will be willing to cooperate with you. As for whether your alchemy skills are sufficient, you will know after a try."

Zhou Qing said seriously, feeling that Yao Ze seemed to have a way.

"This" Yao Ze fell into deep thought.
