Ms. Doctor Divine



"Do you believe that after this strange charm, he will have a different attitude towards Zhao Dier?"

"…"

"He only wants what he finds useful, and he will treat it differently."

Sword One shook her head. "I don't believe that. You are the Phoenix Girl!"

"Then we will see what happens." Gu Chaoyan winked at Sword One and continued to head out of the court.

Sword One suddenly got really curious, but after a moment of relaxation… Gu Chaoyan became confused.

These things all interested her, but also confused her, the Golden Rolls, Piaomiao Pavilion, the human race, alchemy, upper-class pills and magical tools…

And only Huang Fu had some knowledge about any of these, but Huang Fu…

She found him very dangerous.

He always did something over the top, and he always had strange emotions.

She found that she should stay away from Huang Fu.

So she would not ask him personally.

Then… should she go to Destiny Monk instead?

Gu Chaoyan looked back at the court - which was where the King imprisoned Destiny Monk.

Gu Chaoyan suddenly felt that everything was getting very complicated.

—

When the people from Piaomiao Pavilion were settled… the King could not help feeling really excited when he got to Qianqing Palace. He could not even read the books Jiang Shuang left for him.

He was thinking about those strange, new things he just heard and witnessed and felt really disturbed.

"De Fu, go and fetch Elder Qianji and the Elder Miss from Piaomiao Pavilion. Tell them that I have something to discuss with them," the King said anxiously.

"Yes."

De Fu hurried away.

Zhao Dier and Qianji came with De Fu.

Something to discuss with them? Were they going to say yes to their deal?

However… they failed to see the Phoenix Girl in the room, so Zhao Dier became impatient. She asked straightforwardly, "What do you want to discuss with us?"

"Fanghua Pill! I want many of these. If you can offer them to me, I will give you many bonuses, towns, women, or jewelry! Anything we can afford for that," the King said expectantly.

He did not mind giving up some parts of the land, as long as he could extend his lifespan.

Zhao Dier was furious.

Fanghua Pill were middle-grade pills. How could the towns and women of the Saint Divine Land be equal to that? The King was really thinking highly of himself.

What did they know about Piaomiao Pavilion?! Their whole country was nothing to them!

They were asked to come here for Fanghua Pill?

Zhao Dier almost pulled out her sword, but Qianji stopped her.

He smiled at the King. "Fanghua Pill? Good, that is easy. You can give us some jewelry and women as an exchange, but we don't need towns."

"Really?"

"Yeah, we will get the guards to deliver it to you. Anything else? Or we will leave now. King, please try to convince the Phoenix Girl about the Golden Rolls," Qianji said politely.

The King let out a sigh of relief - that was easy. So he nodded and promised to work on the Golden Rolls.

When Qianji and Zhao Dier were back in their own room, Zhao Dier shouted furiously, "Elderly Man Qianji, what were you doing? How can we make a deal with the Saint Divine Land like that?"

Qianji shook his head with a smile. "I have my reason to do that."
