Article 246. Shea Duanjin

The leader: It was a man wearing a green robe with both hands in his sleeves. A sage-like appearance, behind him... There were a dozen or so Dao Attendants following him. Although they were called Dao Attendants, they were actually all in their thirties. Only a few of them who looked to be around thirteen or fourteen years old had red lips and white teeth.

They walked to the front of the Imperial Residence and stopped.

"Master Shea, you came at the right time!"

A trace of joy flashed across Bai Hao's eyes.

He immediately sneered at Ning Qi and said, "This is the chief grandmaster alchemist of White Tiger Pill House. Shea Duanjin, Ning Qi, you said you are also a grandmaster alchemist, so why don't you have a match with Master Shea? If you win, I will give you the Tyrant Sky Ape."

Shea Duanjin?

Ning Qi glanced at the middle-aged man and checked his attributes.

White Tiger Pill House: Shea Duanjin.

Level Seven Star Battle Emperor

Cultivation Technique: Low-grade Earth-rank Mystic Fire Art

Combat Technique: Low-grade Earth-rank Fire Dragon Whip

Alchemy: Fourth Rank

HP: 72,000

Shea Duanjin looked at Ning Qi and smiled. Oh, you are alien minister alchemist from Ninth Princess Mansion? Today, he was indeed a talented man. At such a young age, he had already broken through to the grandmaster alchemist. No wonder even Holy Concubine of Cold Heaven looks at you in a different light. I wonder what kind of misunderstanding there is between you and Thirteenth Prince? Why don't I be a mediator and get rid of this misunderstanding. We don't have to shout and fight when we meet."

" Master Shea, you flatter me. I'm afraid we won't be able to solve the misunderstanding between Thirteenth Prince and me with just a few words. "

Ning Qi said with a smile.

Shea Duanjin's expression changed slightly. The corner of his mouth curled into a cold smile. He said, "Since that is the case, this old man will not say anything else. I heard that Holy Concubine of Cold Heaven values your Alchemy very much. This old man would like to ask for some advice."

Bai Hao said with a cold smile, "Ning Qi, you are not afraid, are you? Didn't you want the Tyrant Sky Ape? As long as you win against Master Shea, I will return it to you."

"What if I lose?"

Ning Qi said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter if I lose. I just need to climb around the Imperial Residence and learn how to bark."

Bai Hao said with a smile.

He paused for a second, then a mocking smile appeared on his face. "What? You don't dare?"

"Alright then. I wonder what Master Shea wants to compete with me for?"

Ning Qi said with a faint smile.

Shea Duanjin smiled. "There is no hurry. I have something to do with Thirteenth Prince today. How about this? Tomorrow, I will invite Holy Concubine of Cold Heaven to preside over this alchemy competition. As for what to compete for, let Holy Concubine of Cold Heaven decide."

"Then I will wait for the good news in Ninth Princess Mansion. Thirteenth Prince, remember to bring the Tyrant Sky Ape with you tomorrow."

Ning Qi cupped his hands and turned to leave.

Bai Hao stared at Ning Qi's back with hatred. He only looked at Shea Duanjin after he disappeared from his sight. "Master Shea, why are you looking for me?"

Shea Duanjin said, "Prince, you have already refined ten of the pills you asked me to refine last time. Are you ready for the things I want?"

"Ten pills!"

A look of ecstasy appeared on Bai Hao's face, and he immediately said, "Master, please come in. I have already prepared the things!"

...

Returning to Princess Residence.

Princess Diaoman looked at Ning Qi, whose hands were empty, and her face revealed a trace of disappointment, "That kid, Bai Hao, is not willing to return the Little Grey to me?"

Ning Qi smiled and said, "Of course he is not willing, but I have a bet with him. Tomorrow I will have a Pill Alchemy duel with Shea Duanjin. If he wins, he will return the Little Grey to Highness The Princess."

"What? Really?! That's great!"

Princess Diaoman's face revealed a trace of joy.

Wu Maji's expression changed and said, "Master Ning, what if you lose?"

Bai Hao was not that easy to get along with. Since he was willing to bet with the Tyrant Sky Ape, it meant that if Ning Qi lost, the price he would have to pay would be even greater!

"Lost? Don't worry, how could I lose?"

Ning Qi said confidently.

"Shea Duanjin is the number one alchemist in White Tiger Empire. He is only half a step away from breaking through to the Pill King. Are you really that confident?"

Wu Maji's expression was filled with disbelief.

"Even if he is a Pill King, I am not afraid of him, let alone a mere grandmaster alchemist. If you don't believe me, why don't we make a bet?"

Ning Qi said with a smile.

"What bet?"

Wu Maji asked.

"If I win, smile at me. What do you think? I seem to have never seen you smile before."

Ning Qi smiled.

Wu Maji frowned and nodded. "Okay."

"Then it's settled. Princess, I will go and rest first."

Ning Qi said.

"Wait, there is one more thing that I need you to make a decision on."

Princess Diaoman reached out her hand to stop Ning Qi.

"What is it?"

Ning Qi's face revealed a trace of doubt.

Princess Diaoman clapped her hands and Chen Haiyang was brought up by Deng San.

"Princess, I was wronged."

Chen Haiyang immediately knelt down in front of everyone and cried.

A trace of shame appeared on Deng San's face, and he said to Ning Qi, "I did not teach you well, and such a traitor appeared. I hope Master Ning can forgive me."

"What is this for?"

Ning Qi frowned slightly.

"Didn't he sell you out in Hu Feng Prison? If you want to kill me or cut me up, do as you see fit."

Princess Diaoman said.

"Haha, even if he doesn't betray me, I will also betray myself. Otherwise, how can I see Holy Concubine of Cold Heaven?"

Ning Qi smiled and shook his head. He looked down at Chen Haiyang and said to Princess Diaoman, "Let him go."

"You are not angry?"

Princess Diaoman was a little surprised.

Chen Haiyang was also stunned. After that, a trace of wild joy rose in his heart. Ning Qi actually did not intend to pursue him?

Ning Qi did not answer. Instead, he smiled and turned around to leave.

A trace of admiration appeared in Deng San's eyes. He looked at Ning Qi's back and said, "Master Ning is indeed magnanimous."

"Princess, in the future, I..."

Chen Haiyang looked at Princess Diaoman with anticipation.

"In the future, you can wash the stables."

Princess Diaoman tilted her head and made a decision.

"Wash, wash the stables?"

Chen Haiyang looked at Princess Diaoman in a daze.

"What? Not willing? Then you can take responsibility for the Night Fragrance "

Princess Diaoman said with a cold smile.

"No, no, no, this subordinate is willing to wash the stables!"

Chen Haiyang said firmly.

Although it was shameful for a Peak Battle King to wash the stables as a servant, it was still better than messing around with Night Fragrance!

"Why aren't you thanking the princess?"

Deng San cast a sidelong glance at Chen Haiyang and said.

"Yes, this subordinate thanks the princess for her grace!"

Chen Haiyang immediately kowtowed a few times.

...

Not far from the Ninth Princess Mansion, there was a small courtyard. The owner of this courtyard was a small official of the White Tiger Empire. He looked to be in his forties. And... They got along well with each other in the neighborhood. Every day when they returned home, they would greet their acquaintances. There was only a servant in his sixties beside him. Other than that, he did not even deserve maidservant.

"Sir Liu, it's time to get off work again today?"1

A plain dressed auntie smiled at a fat middle-aged man. Behind the middle-aged man was an old man.
