Can you really sll my scent?
Upon hearing Feili Xue’s words, Qin Tian was stunned and curiously asked: "We haven’t seen each other for so long, you still rember my scent? Uh, am I supposed to feel honored?"
Feili Xue smiled lightly again: "As an Alchemist, you must be extrely sensitive to various dicinal and other scents, and you must also rember these scents by heart. When we were in East State, we dined together several tis, and I had enough ti to rember your scent. So, even if you’ve disguised yourself, I can easily recognize you."
"You said you wanted to ask two questions; I’ve answered the first one. What’s the second?"
Qin Tian asked, "I heard soone talking to you in the yard just now. Who was it?"
Feili Xue stared at Qin Tian: "The Fourteenth Prince."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief; it seed Feili Xue didn’t intend to deceive him.
"The Fourteenth Prince usually doesn’t involve himself in politics or Cultivation Immortality, why would he co to you late at night? Has he asked you to make an elixir?" Qin Tian inquired.
"Marquis Qin, though you are a marquis, the Fourteenth Prince is a Royal Family’s descendant. If you want to ask about these private matters, I must respond according to the protocol, and I can’t tell you anything. Of course, you can ask the Fourteenth Prince yourself." Feili Xue took another sip of tea.
Qin Tian pursed his lips, unexpectedly, Feili Xue chose to keep this crucial matter a secret, which ans their relationship isn’t really that close. No wonder; after moving from East Capital to the Imperial City, Qin Tian only t Feili Xue once, and it was just a brief encounter.
Currently, the situations in the Imperial City are so complicated; Feili Xue certainly wants to protect herself, avoiding offenses against any major figures. This is understandable.
"Marquis Qin, now could you tell why you co to ?" Feili Xue stood up and said: "The Fourth Prince’s investigations in the Imperial City are very strict, I advise you to be careful while you are out."
Qin Tian chuckled without saying much, took out the Xuanming dicine Book and said: "I intend to concoct an elixir, but there are so things I don’t quite understand. Can you take a look at this record, and if you can understand it, may I ask you to help concoct it?"
"Immortal Pill?"
Upon seeing the alchemical record in the Xuanming dicine Book, Feili Xue was visibly surprised, "This is a legendary elixir of the Demon Clan, how did you obtain this Xuanming dicine Book from the Demon Clan?"
After carefully reviewing the concoction thod of the Immortal Pill, Feili Xue said: "Actually, the concoction thod is not difficult, except, mastering the intensity of Fire Attribute and Fire Attribute True Qi during the concoction process is crucial. Of course, the most important ingredient for concocting the Immortal Pill is the Immortal Divine Beast, Marquis Qin, do you have one? This is a mythical level Demon Beast from the Demon Clan."
Qin Tian nodded: "I have one."
Feili Xue was pleased upon hearing this and said: "That’s great, I’ve only heard of the Immortal Pill before, never concocted it. I’d like to give it a try."
Qin Tian was stunned: "Give it a try? aning, there’s a possibility of failure?"
"Of course."
"Uh..."
Qin Tian was embarrassed, after all, this Immortal Divine Beast was captured by great efforts, what would happen if Feili Xue failed in her attempt?
"How likely is it to fail, Teacher Fei?" Qin Tian asked.
Feili Xue smiled and said: "Approximately fifty-fifty."
"Hiss..."
Qin Tian clicked his tongue, "Failure in concoction would be catastrophic, finding another Immortal Divine Beast is incredibly difficult."
"Therefore, I’ll try my best."
In response to Qin Tian’s concerns, Feili Xue replied sowhat mischievously.
"Alright, if you fail, you’ll have to compensate ." Qin Tian said helplessly.
Feili Xue smiled: "Marquis Qin, you are indeed a man of stature; I wonder what you’d fancy from my humble abode, should I fail in the alchemy?"
"Then I want you." Qin Tian’s words were straightforward, causing Feili Xue to be visibly surprised.
Both fell silent simultaneously, and Qin Tian quickly realized the ambiguity in his words.
Actually, Qin Tian ant he didn’t have a good alchemist in his troop, and bringing Feili Xue into it would be perfect.
But saying it this way seed a bit like flirting, was it right to say such direct words to Teacher Fei?
However, Feili Xue seed unbothered, chuckling: "Marquis Qin surrounds himself with beauties; I’m rely a little alchemist woman who’s barely worth your notice..."
Qin Tian didn’t explain further and simply said: "Alright then, Teacher Fei please try your best, and as soon as possible, I urgently need the Immortal Pill."
"Of course. I’m always interested in trying new alchemical thods and concoction techniques." Feili Xue said.
Then, Qin Tian handed over the Immortal Divine Beast and the Xuanming dicine Book to Feili Xue, afterwards, he smiled and asked: "Teacher Fei, I currently don’t have a place to stay in the Imperial City, may I lodge here for now?"
Feili Xue said: "There’s a southern wingroom, Marquis Qin can stay here freely. But be careful when coming and going, don’t attract attention, otherwise, it would implicate us. Regarding your daily needs, you’ll have to manage them yourself."
"Uh, how pitiful."
Qin Tian was helpless, presently, with the Fourth Prince and Ice Emperor appearing in the Imperial City, it would inevitably trigger turmoil; Qin Tian didn’t have the confidence to escape from the encirclent in the Imperial City.
After spending the night at Feili Xue’s place, the next day, Qin Tian went out to gather information.
He desperately wanted to understand the situation in the Imperial City; has the Fourth Prince truly taken power, and would the Ice Emperor relinquish it?
The State Preceptor still hasn’t made a move.
It seed that the Ice Emperor’s underlings, the Soul Suppressing Hall, were also lurking silently.
It’s likely that the Imperial City is only superficially under the Fourth Prince’s control, but the Ice Emperor, who could kill the Martial King, would certainly not be unable to fight against his own son.
Co nightti, Qin Tian arrived outside a luxurious mansion about ten miles away from the Imperial Palace—
The Gongsun Family.
He hadn’t contacted Gongsun San-niang for quite a while, hoping to get the most tily information from her.
However, the Gongsun mansion was no ordinary place, heavily guarded, and Qin Tian could sense True Qi Formation controls in the shadows; forcing an entry using True Qi would have a high probability of being discovered.
Thus, Qin Tian chose to visit through the front door; after all, no one recognized him here.
The Gongsun Family is entirely composed of won, all of whom are beauties, even the guards are.
Qin Tian appeared to be a playboy as he approached, saying: "Miss, I’m here to visit Gongsun San-niang, please inform her."
"Sir, may I ask your na? What is your status?" The maid guard asked.
"My na is He RenSan, an instrunt shop owner in the Imperial City, please inform her."
While speaking, Qin Tian slipped two High Grade Spirit Stones into the female guard’s hand.
