"Master Ling, please come in."

The two sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, and soon a maid came to take away the unfinished breakfast on the table.

The Beast King squatted aside and watched helplessly as the food was taken away.

If I had known this, no matter what I said just now, I should have swallowed the bun that reached my mouth.

"Master Ling, please tell me something."

"Ahem...that's it. Before talking about the spiritual beasts, I want to ask about Jiang Ning." Ling Chuge suddenly said.

Come here today, caring about spiritual beasts is a lie, but inquiring about Jiang Ning’s news is true.

The so-called spiritual beast was just an excuse Ling Chuge made for himself.

"How was she when you saw her a year ago?" Ling Chuge asked with hope in his eyes.

"She is very good. She is neither thin nor fat, nor tall nor short, nor is she missing any arms or legs." Jiang Ning replied.

This answer is not incomplete.

Ling Chuge was suddenly speechless.

After pondering for a moment, Ling Chuge added, "Then did she ever say when she would come to Jiuyang Dynasty?"

"I don't know about this." Jiang Ning looked at Ling Chuge and replied.

"Then...is there anyone with her?"

"Come with me?" Why do you ask this?

Despite his doubts, Jiang Ning answered truthfully.

"No, she was alone when I saw her."

"That's good, that's good." After receiving this answer, Ling Chuge couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Ling seems to care about Mr. Jiang very much?" Jiang Ning said suddenly.

As soon as these words came out, the tips of Ling Chuge's ears instantly turned crimson.

Jiang Ning didn't notice, but the Beast King behind her saw it clearly.

"She is my junior brother, so I care about her naturally. Isn't this normal?" Ling Chuge said loudly. He didn't know whether he was speaking to Jiang Ning or to himself.

"To be honest, Mr. Ling, when I met Mr. Jiang before, he had another sentence that I forgot to tell you."

"What?"

"She said that when everything is resolved, she will come to you as promised."

"really?"

"real."

Hearing what Jiang Ning said, the corners of Ling Chuge's mouth couldn't help but rise.

"Then... I'll leave if nothing happens." Ling Chuge, who was so happy that he couldn't find Bei, turned around and rushed out of the small courtyard at the moment when he couldn't suppress his smile.

Jiang Ning looked confused, "Didn't you say you came to see the spiritual beast? Why did you just leave?"

"That kid didn't come to see me." The Beast King snorted coldly, with strong resentment in his tone.

It was still thinking about the bun that almost reached its mouth just now. If it weren't for Ling Chuge, it would have eaten it long ago.

"What? Are you unwilling to eat the steamed buns?" Jiang Ning teased.

The Beast King snorted lightly and looked away.

"Who cares about their buns?"

Before he finished speaking, a maid came in with a new breakfast from outside the courtyard.

"Miss Qin, the food you want."

"Put it on the table, you're ready for work." Jiang Ning pointed to the stone table in the yard.

Soon, the scent of the buns drifted into the beast king's nose. The canine spirit beast's sense of smell was already very sensitive, plus the buns were placed so close to it.

The Beast King couldn't help but swallowed.

But when I think of Haikou, which I just boasted about, I don’t think I care about steamed buns...

Jiang Ning had long seen through the Beast King's little thoughts.

With a helpless smile, Jiang Ning turned around and entered the room.

"I'm so tired. I need to take a rest. If no one eats the buns, just leave them there. Someone will come and take them away in half an hour."

These words were obviously meant for the Beast King.

After Jiang Ning entered the room, the big red dog first ran to the door and listened to what was going on in Jiang Ning's room.

Seeing that there was no sound, it was probably that he really took a rest.

After making sure that he would not be seen eating, the Beast King immediately ran to the table and ate the entire breakfast.

An hour later, Jiang Ning changed his clothes and walked out of the room.

The Beast King was lying on his back in the side room, sleeping comfortably.

After telling the Beast King, "Don't run around," Jiang Ning left the yard.

Leaving the business, Jiang Ning put a gray cloak on his body and used the Void Illusion Ring to change his appearance to that of a man.

The cloak covered most of Jiang Ning's face, leaving only the nose below.

Covered so tightly, even if Ling Chuge stood in front of Jiang Ning, he might not be able to recognize him.

[Why are you dressed like this? 】

"Of course we are looking for the dragon's blood."

[Where to find it? 】

"Last night, Miss Qingrou told me a place."

[You mean the black market? 】

"There is a mixture of fish and dragons there, and there are all kinds of weird things. Maybe you can find dragon blood."

[Then why don’t you ask Ling Chuge directly?He is from the four major families. 】

"It's not too late to ask him if you can't find him."

With that said, Jiang Ning found the entrance to the black market according to the location Qingrou told her.

"Youren Medical Center." Jiang Ning read out the words on the sign.

When I walked into the hospital, there was only a child inside, lying on the table bored.

Seeing someone coming, the child raised his head listlessly and asked, "Should I see a doctor or take medicine?"

"The cheapest hemostatic medicine costs 1 taels of gold."

Hearing this, the boy raised his head and glanced at Jiang Ning.

Then he reached out and knocked on the table in front of him.

"Pay first."

"Boom!" Jiang Ning threw a storage bag on the table.

The child put his consciousness into the storage bag, and after confirming that there really was 1 taels of gold, he put the storage bag into his pocket.

Then, throw a stone to Jiang Ning.

"The stuff is in the backyard, go get it yourself."

Jiang Ning put away the stones and walked into the backyard.

After feeling the enchantment around him, Jiang Ning threw the stone into the sky.

The next second, the environment around Jiang Ning suddenly floated like water waves.

When everything returned to normal, Jiang Ning had already appeared on a busy road.

The people around him were either wearing masks or cloaks, and no one showed their true face.

There are street stalls on the roadside, selling all kinds of things.

Some of the stall owners shouted loudly about their treasures, while others threw their stalls aside and fell asleep.

"Full-term babies, come and see, it's a rare full-term baby. After taking it, it can beautify and maintain youth forever."

"Poison, poison, poison that kills invisible people, poison that seals the throat when blood is seen."

"Newborn Xumi beast cubs only cost 1 taels each, first come first served."

"..."

Jiang Ning didn't pay much attention to the shouts from these stalls. Instead, he walked south along the street until he saw a small house at the end of the road.

Knocking on the door, the person who opened the door was an old man who was over seventy years old.

"What?"

"I want dragon blood." Jiang Ning explained his intention directly.

"15 taels of gold." The old man reported the price.

It happened to be all the money Jiang Ning had left.

"When can I get it soon?" Jiang Ning asked.

"Within three days."

"Okay." Without hesitation, Jiang Ning handed the storage bag containing 15 taels of gold to the old man.

"In three days, I will come to collect the dragon's blood."
