Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 558
Chapter 558 Jiang Tianliu’s Strength Is in Turmoil
Jiang Tianliu asked Jiang Feng if he knew how to refine pills and artifacts. After receiving Jiang Feng’s affirmative answer, he smiled strangely and did not speak to Jiang Feng. Instead, he focused his attention on the competition between Mu Qingrou, Mu Dieya, and the other two sisters, Zhou Baicao and Zheng Qianren.
Soon, Zhou Baicao’s medicinal furnace made a muffled sound, and the fragrance of medicinal pills flowed out.
Jiang Feng took a deep breath, wanting to feel the quality of the Xiao Ke Pill by relying on the smell of the pill.
Jiang Feng immediately closed his eyes and silently felt it after washing it all in one breath. Soon, he shook his head.
As its name implied, the Xiao Ke Pill was used to eliminate karma for others.
There are two types of karma. One is fruit karma. For example, if you kill her parents, she will definitely seek revenge on you as a son. The former is because, has the result, also is because the fruit karma repay.
Naturally, this kind of karma was not something that a pill could solve.
The Xiao Ke Pill dealt with the second type of karma, called the Heart Devil Karma. All living creatures in this world have two sides. When evil thoughts arose, it was possible to kill and seize treasures. However, Shannian Sheng couldn’t help but feel regret and shame for his actions.
The thought of regret and shame came out of his mind all his life, and he naturally couldn’t find peace in his heart.
Normally, such a state might be good, but once one reached a breakthrough or accumulated karma to a peak, the Heart Demon Karma would bring great trouble to cultivators.
The Xiao Ke Pill was refined from the seeds of the Buddha’s Hand Lingzhi, Jade Heart Lotus Leaf, Nightmare Grass, and Li Meng Fruit. Once consumed, not only would a cultivator be able to eliminate the demonic karma in their hearts, they would also be able to calm their mood while cultivating, allowing them to achieve twice the results with half the effort.
In the records of Zuo Ci’s inheritance, this pill had the shape of a longan, its color like emerald, and its fragrance like a spirit musk deer. There were nine cloud patterns on the surface of the finished product. A single smell of the fragrance would make one feel refreshed, and the hundred acupoints would be unobstructed.
However, the Karma Elimination Pill that Jiang Feng smelled just now had nothing but a delicate fragrance. This kind of Karma Elimination Pill was also considered a Karma Elimination Pill?
Although Jiang Feng looked down on Zhou Baicao’s Karma Elimination Pill, Zhou Baicao was still quite satisfied with it.
He waited for the medicinal fragrance to disperse for a while before he opened the lid of the cauldron and took out the medicinal pills.
Jiang Feng stood far away from Zhou Baicao, so he directly gathered all his True Spirit Energy into his eyes. In the blink of an eye, his eyesight increased several times.
When Jiang Feng saw the Karma Elimination Pill in Zhou Baicao’s hand, his heart immediately calmed down.
It turned out that Zhou Baicao only had this little ability. It seemed that Mu Qingrou still had a chance of winning.
It was also thanks to Zhou Baicao that he was able to take out the three Cloud Patterns Karma Eliminating Pills.
Bang!
While Jiang Feng was still secretly disdaining Zhou Baicao, Mu Qingrou’s cauldron lid also trembled.
The same aroma of medicinal pills flowed out from the cauldron. Jiang Feng’s expression changed slightly when he smelled the aroma.
“I lost.” Jiang Feng muttered in a low voice.
In Zuo Ci’s inheritance’s alchemy, it was clearly recorded that the Xiao Ke Pill smelled like a spirit musk deer. How rich is the fragrance of musk? The fragrance of Mu Qingrou’s Karma Elimination Pill flowed all the way over, and she almost couldn’t smell it anymore.
Not to mention compared to the real Nine Cloud Patterns Karma Elimination Pill, even compared to Zhou Baicao’s Karma Elimination Pill, it was still far inferior.
“Third young miss, do you think we need to continue competing just by the fragrance of this pill?”
Zhou Baicao also knew how to concoct pills, so he knew that he had won with the smell of the pills. This week, Hundred Herbs became even more complacent. The way he looked at Mu Qingrou was as if he was looking at his own exclusive domain.
Mu Qingrou looked at her pill and clenched her hands into fists. Blood slowly flowed out of her fingers.
Evidently, Mu Qingrou’s clenched fists were too strong, and her fingernails had already pierced through her palms.
“It’s too much of a joke to judge the outcome based on the fragrance alone. Third Miss Mu, why don’t you open the lid of the cauldron and take out the pill to take a look?” Lu Wanding said gently.
At this moment, Mudie Ya suddenly let out a “boom” sound.
Everyone’s gazes were attracted. The jade talisman in Mu Dieya’s hand that was used to make the Heavenly Lightning Flash had exploded into powder, and even Mu Dieya had turned into a sorry state.
At this moment, Zheng Qianren snorted softly and tossed the Heavenly Lightning Flash in his hand. “My Heavenly Lightning Flash is ready, but Fourth Miss, do you want to do it again?”
However, you must be careful this time. If this lightning bolt doesn’t work, people will die. How sad would I be if you didn’t pay attention to Xiangxiaoyu’s death? ”
“Do it again!” Mudie gritted her teeth in an attempt to endure, but in the end, she coughed twice and a wisp of blood oozed out from the corner of her mouth.
Mu Qingrou hurriedly walked over to hug her and comforted her in a low voice, “Die Ya, don’t hold on. With your current state of spiritual energy, it’s impossible for you to engrave the Heavenly Lightning Nine Flashes magic array on the jade talisman.”
Forget it, we lost. Remember what we talked about? “Mu Clan’s daughter would rather die than be humiliated.”
“Yes.” Mu Dieya nodded with red eyes.
Suddenly, Mu Qingrou and Mu Dieya took out an exquisite dagger at the same time and stabbed it straight into their chests.
“You want to die?”
Leng Hanqiu, who was standing at the entrance of the hall with her hands behind her back, had been paying close attention to Mu Qingrou and Mu Dieya. Seeing the two women attack, Leng Hanqiu waved her right hand and two Spiritual Energy that seemed to be tangible instantly hit the back of Mu Qingrou and Mu Dieya’s hands.
The dagger in Mu Qingrou’s and Mu Dieya’s hands landed on the ground at the same time.
“Third Miss Mu, Fourth Miss Mu. Since you admit defeat, then your lives don’t belong to you. Master Zhou and Master Zheng didn’t let you die, so how can you die?”
“Leng Hanqiu, don’t go too far!” Mu Qingrou held her left hand and looked at Leng Hanqiu angrily.
Leng Hanqiu chuckled and shook her head, “I don’t dare to bully the two eldest young misses of the Mu Clan. I just want to remind the two eldest young misses that they need to know how to admit defeat.”
“Who said that we admit defeat? Didn’t you say that the Mu Clan defeated these two ugly and inferior creatures by themselves, and that the two of them will be left to the Mu Clan to deal with?”
Jiang Tianliu, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally couldn’t help but stand up.
In the current situation, he stood up and said these words. Naturally, he immediately became the focus of everyone’s attention.
Leng Hanqiu frowned slightly as he looked at Jiang Tianliu. Naturally, he did not recognize Jiang Tianliu, but he recognized the servant clothes on Jiang Tianliu’s body.
Leng Hanqiu’s face suddenly turned sullen. He stared at Jiang Tianliu with killing intent and said, “Mu Zhengrong, when did your Mu Clan’s servants become so unruly?”
“If you don’t teach your servants, I, Leng Hanqiu, don’t mind helping you educate them.”
“How shameless of you to boast. Why don’t you come and try to touch me? Do you believe that if I stand and let you fight, you will die in the end?”
Jiang Feng immediately covered his face with his hand after hearing Jiang Tianliu’s words. He knew that Jiang Tianliu had once again activated the mode of “bragging without paying taxes”.
“Who are you? Why don’t I remember that my Mu Manor has a servant like you?” Mu Zhengrong frowned slightly and asked.
Mu Qingrou had experienced Jiang Tianliu’s skills before. Seeing that Jiang Tianliu was standing up, a feeling of catching a life-saving straw arose in her heart.
She hurriedly said to Mu Zhengrong, “Father, this is the servant who was recently hired home. His name is Jiang Tianliu.”
Mu Qingrou looked at Jiang Tianliu and asked, “Jiang Tianliu, do you know how to refine pills and artifacts?”
“Of course!” Jiang Tianliu answered confidently. His answer made Mu Qingrou, Mu Zhengrong, Mu Dieya, and even Jiang Feng’s eyes shine.
However, after Jiang Tianliu took a deep breath, he added, “No way.”
“Of course not!”
“You won’t cause any trouble!” This time, there was no need for anyone else to speak. Steward Wang couldn’t help but shout at Jiang Tianliu.
Jiang Tianliu was instantly enraged by Housekeeper Wang’s roar, and he roared back impolitely.
“Are you stupid? I don’t think anyone will. Xiaofeng! Come out and show them.”
Jiang Feng already had an ominous premonition when Jiang Tianliu asked him if he knew how to refine pills and artifacts. At this moment, when he heard Jiang Tianliu’s shout, his face immediately revealed an expression of “as expected”.
Jiang Tianliu turned his head to look at Jiang Feng, and even the entire audience followed suit.
Jiang Feng, who had instantly become the focus of everyone present, shook his head with a bitter smile. In the end, he still stood up.
Jiang Tianliu patted Jiang Feng on the shoulder and said to him with a sincere expression, “Go, Xiaofeng, use half of your strength to deal with those two ugly things.”
Jiang Feng said, “…”
“Jiang Feng, you know alchemy and artifact forging?” Mu Qingrou hurriedly asked Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng could no longer hide his strength and keep a low profile. He nodded to Mu Qingrou and said, “A little.”
“Haha, you just want to compete with me? I, Zhou Baicao, am not something any cat or dog can compete with.”
“Well said!” Jiang Feng shouted and clapped his hands.
“My temper is exactly the same as Master Zhou’s. I don’t want to compete with those cats and dogs, especially those that don’t even know a thing or two.”
“You! What do you mean?”
“Ah? Master Zhou, don’t you understand what I’m saying? So you can become a pill refiner after reaching such an IQ? Then it seems that my pill refining skills are not unreasonable.”
“You’re courting death!” Zhou Baicao roared angrily as a surge of Spiritual Energy shot towards Jiang Feng.
That Spiritual Energy came extremely quickly. Jiang Feng could tell from the momentum that it was not something he could resist.
His expression changed slightly, but he felt that Jiang Tianliu was pulling him.
Jiang Tianliu gently waved his sleeve, and Zhou Baicao’s spiritual energy was directly crushed. When Mu Zhengrong, Leng Hanqiu, and Lu Wanding saw his hand, their expressions changed.
Among the crowd present, Lu Wanding was the strongest. He secretly estimated in his heart, “Zhou Baicao is obviously at the late stage of Out-of-Aperture. His attack just now was filled with anger, and he didn’t retain any strength at all.”
If I want to continue, I need to gather at least 70% of my spiritual energy. But this Jiang Tianliu didn’t have the slightest spiritual energy fluctuation after receiving the attack from Hundred Herbs next week?
How much Spiritual Energy did he use? Ten percent? Half a percent? ”
