Chapter 429: Swindle the Alchemy Schoolâs Headmaster
After hearing what Headmaster Feng said, the other pupils present couldnât resist staring at the white porcelain jar on the table.
They all knew the value of Century Old Royal Jelly, and they also knew that Lou Mu Yan didnât seem to lack this thing. After all, the Beauty Nourishing Pill she had was made from royal jelly.
âIs it extravagant? Headmaster, I, not only drinks Honey Tea everyday, but also takes Beauty Enhancing Pills made from royal jelly, and also often drank Honey Wine. This isnât something you can envy.â Huo Ling Long giggled and complacently picked up a cup of Honey Tea and drank it.
Headmaster Feng almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. The lifestyle of this female tyrant dragon was this good? What did she mean that he couldnât envy it?
Humph, if it werenât for that Inner Sect Pupil of that old thing from the Alchemy School placing Lou Mu Yan in the Talisman School, it wouldnât be certain who would be drinking this Honey Tea right now.
âLou girl, do you have a lot of royal jelly?â Headmaster Feng ignored Huo Ling Longâs complacency and asked Lou Mu Yan with a loving smile.
Lou Mu Yan consciously held a cup of Honey Tea and sat next to Huo Ling Long. She raised her head with a light smile and said: âThis pupil still has two jars. If Headmaster Feng wants it, I can sell one to you.â
ââŠâ Headmaster Feng and the other pupils were in a daze upon hearing her words.
Shouldnât it be âgiftâ? This woman really was so greedyâshe didnât even give any face to a Headmaster.
âIsnât Junior Sister Lou favouring one and discriminating against the other too much.â A relatively straightforward pupil of the Alchemy School said: âYou gave so much royal jelly to Headmaster Huo, but you want our Headmaster to buy it. Isnât this a bit unreasonable.â
âItâs unreasonable?â Lou Mu Yan blinked innocently, âIâm a pupil of the Talisman School, itâs only filial for me to honour Headmaster with some royal jelly, but Headmaster Feng isnât my Headmaster, so it isnât good for me to get too close to him on purpose right?
âIf I chased behind Headmaster Feng to gift royal jelly everyday, then Iâm afraid that it should be you all that should be worried.â She added bluntly.
She could tell that Headmaster Feng wanted royal jelly, but why would she gift it to him when she didnât have a good relationship with him?
When Huo Ling Long made her brew Honey Tea, it must be because she wanted to swindle this old man Feng of something. She couldnât even wait to cooperate, so how could she foolishly let this opportunity go to waste?
âYouâŠâ The man was so chocked by Lou Mu Yan that he didnât know what to say.
Lou Mu Yan wasnât a pupil of their Alchemy School, so it was normal that she didnât gift it to their Headmaster, and if she really followed behind the Headmaster everyday, being so diligent, if she became favoured, then wouldnât it overwhelm the pupils like them of the Alchemy School?
âWhatâs the big deal.â Huo Ling Longâs glamorous face revealed slight contempt, âOld Feng, youâre also the head of a School, youâre that shameless to take things from your juniors for nothing?
âWhatâs the problem with exchanging something for the royal jelly with your junior?â
ââŠâ The corner of Headmaster Fengâs lips twitched, and he finally understood what this woman wanted to do.
âThatâs only natural. As a senior, how could I ask something from a junior.â He scolded Huo Ling Long over and over again inwardly, then turned to look at Lou Mu Yan and asked: âLittle girl, Iâm very interested in your royal jelly. What do you want for exchange?â
Lou Mu Yan had yet to speak when Huo Ling Long said with a smile: âDidnât you get a Nine Forms Ice King Lotusâs seeds? Just take out five or six for exchange.â
ââŠâ Headmaster Feng had a mouthful of blood stuck in his chest. This female tyrant dragon was too shameless.
He only obtained around a dozen seeds of the Nine Forms Ice King Lotus, but she actually asked for five or six.
Century Old Royal Jelly was indeed a good thing, but the seeds of the Nine Forms Ice King Lotus werenât inferior at all. If it was used to refine pills, it was beneficial to the advancement of ice attribute Sword Venerables. It was even beneficial to Sword Saints who cultivated the ice element.
âHuo Ling Long, Iâm asking Lou girl, not you.â Master Feng sucked in a deep breath, looked at Lou Mu Yan and said with a smile: âLou girl, do you also want the lotus seeds of the Nine Forms Ice King Lotus?â
He thought that since he was so obviously refusing, so Lou Mu Yan should understand right.âSince Headmaster Feng is so generous, I shouldnât be too polite now. I can exchange a jar of royal jelly for some Nine Forms Ice King Lotus seeds.â Lou Mu Yan pretended to be embarrassed and lowered her head.
But she laughed inwardly. The lotus seeds of the Nine Forms Ice King Lotus were the main ingredients for refining ice attribute pills. If she refined them into pills, it would be very helpful to her in comprehending the Ice Elemental Energy attribute.
If Bing Ji and Miao Miao took it, it would not only help improve their comprehension of the ice attribute, but it could also promote their advancement.
ââŠâ Headmaster Fengâs smile froze. This girl appeared simple and straightforward on the surface, but in fact, was just like Huo Ling Long, both cunning and black-hearted.
âWhat? Old Feng, you want to go back on what you said?â Huo Ling Long suddenly curbed her smile and looked at Headmaster Feng with a grim expression, the meaning in her gaze was pretty obviousâif you want to go back on your word, then be careful laoâniang will beat you up.
Headmaster Feng took a deep breath and said with a fake smile: âHow could it be? Is this old man such a stingy person?â
Then he took out five lotus seeds that were the size of a fingernail exuding an icy blue fluorescent light and handed them to Lou Mu Yan, âLou girl, put it away safely.â
âThank you, Headmaster Feng!â Lou Mu Yan took the lotus seeds with a smile and handed over a jar of royal jelly.
Huo Ling Long caught the annoyed look of Headmaster Feng and she felt extremely comfortable. This old man was the stingiest among the Headmasters of the five Schools. If she didnât swindle him, whoâd she swindle from.
If Lou Mu Yanâs Ice Luan Divine Beast consumed a few lotus seeds of the Nine Forms Ice King Lotus, he should be able to improve a step further during the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects.
The pupils present, especially the pupils of the Alchemy School, looked at Lou Mu Yan with jealousy, envy, and hatred.
This woman really was lucky. Not only was she daring and arrogant, but she also had support. Even their Headmaster was swindled fromâtheir hearts were really both bitter and angry.
Headmaster Feng put the Royal Jelly away, took a cup of Honey Tea and sipped it to reduce his inner fire. The value of five Nine Forms Ice King Lotus seeds was far greater than a jar of Century Old Royal Jelly. This was a huge loss.
If Lou Mu Yan was a pupil of their Alchemy School, then he wouldnât be so distressed, but the other party was the proudest pupil of that female tyrant dragon, which made him have an indescribable feeling of dislike.
Most importantly, he sent himself to the door to be swindled.
Huo Ling Long was too lazy to care whether he felt comfortable or not. As long as she and Lou Mu Yan were comfortable, thatâs all that matters.
Seeing that Headmaster Feng was in a bad mood while needing to endure it and smile, she felt fantastic and gave Lou Mu Yan a âyou understood wellâ expression.
Lou Mu Yan vaguely returned a look of âthank you, Headmasterâ.
Sitting behind the two of them, Jian Yang naturally caught the undisguised eye contact between the two and couldnât resist holding his forehead. With Lou Mu Yan, their Headmaster could happily cause even more trouble. But why did he feel so satisfiedâŠ
In the past, they always suffered losses to the pupils of the Alchemy Sect, especially since the entire Sectâs pills came from the Alchemy School. Usually, if they wanted to buy some high-quality pills, they had to learn to watch their moods. Now that he saw those people so beaten, how nice that felt.
After a while, the seats below were all filled, and the entire hall was enveloped by a layer of soft white light.
The red curtains on the auction table ahead were pulled open and a spirited elderly in cyan clothes walked out.
He exuded an aura that created pressure without appearing emotional, and his smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, but no one dared to underestimate him.
This auctioneer was a solid Sword Saint powerhouse.
