Chapter 3751: Small Force in the Political Hostage Manor
Ling Han raised his head, only to see a woman in purple standing atop the wall.
This woman looked to be in her early twenties. She was extremely beautiful, and had a
graceful figure. She stood at a high place, her dress fluttering in the wind, clinging tightly to her body, outlining her captivating curves.
“Miss is?” Ling Han asked.
“My name is Liu Xunyu,” the woman said, “Are you the new arrival, Ling Han?”
“I am.” Ling Han nodded, still looking at her with a questioning expression.
‘What’s the meaning of you standing on the wall of my courtyard?’
Liu Xunyu giggled, and leaped down from the wall. “I’m really sorry. Smelling the fragrance of alchemical pills, I couldn’t help but want to take a look. I really didn’t expect that you are actually an alchemist as well!”
However, Ling Han was slightly apprehensive. He hadn’t discovered when she had leaped onto the wall. Although he was fully focused on refining pills here, even so, no Foundation Building Tier cultivator could possibly deceive his divine sense. Ling Han still had that much confidence.
Thus, there was only one possibility, and that was this Liu Xunyu was not in the Foundation Building Tier. At least, she was in the Cauldron Forging Tier.
“Thank you for the compliment.” Ling Han smiled faintly.
Yet Liu Xunyu was very cordial, “You are too modest. Though there are a great many hostages here, and there is no shortage of those with astonishing natural talent in cultivation, but as far as I know, you are the only alchemist here.”
“All right.” Ling Han nodded honestly and without reservations. His talent in alchemy was indeed amazing.
Liu Xunyu smiled beautifully, “You have just arrived, so you should not have much understanding of this place, so I have come to tell you.”
“All right.”
Liu Xunyu gave Ling Han an introduction. There were a total of 23 hostages here, representing the 23 forces that were subordinate to the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire. Some forces had already existed for tens of thousands of years, but there were also some forces that had just been established not too long ago.
The Azure Dragon Majestic Empire allowed their subordinate forces to compete in private. For example, if another force appeared on the Celestial Sea Planet and destroyed the Chen Clan, replacing them, then the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire wouldn’t send troops to avenge the Chen Clan. As long as that force obediently paid their tribute, then there wouldn’t be any problem.
Of course, this force definitely couldn’t affect the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire’s own rule. Otherwise, it would be unavoidable that they would be destroyed, just like the Chen Clan’s Royal Empire. In fact, they didn’t do anything treasonous. It was only because the Meng Clan felt that if this continued, the Chen Clan might become uncontrollable, powerful enough to threaten the existence of the Meng Clan.
Because they were all hostages, the members of Jia Yuan Manor all united, and Liu Xunyu was the “captain” of the hostage group.
“Ling Han, we’re all living under someone else’s roof, so we have to help each other, right?” Liu Xunyu asked in the end.
Ling Han naturally agreed, and replied, “Yes.”
Liu Xunyu cast a meaningful look at Ling Han, “If you encounter any difficulties in future, remember to look for me. If the conditions permit, I will definitely help you resolve them.” “I’ll keep that in mind.”
Liu Xunyu left gracefully, while Ling Han stroked his chin, deep in thought.
In a small place like the Political Hostage Manor, the residents were actually uniting together to form their own forces.
According to Liu Xunyu, there were a total of three Cauldron Forging Origin Tier cultivators here. One was her, and the other two were Han Bing and Zhao Xiao. The others were only in the Foundation Building Tier.
It wasn’t that the people here were weaker in talent, but rather that they usually wouldn’t be hostages for more than a hundred years. At that time, they would be replaced by new hostages, and it was extremely difficult to break through to the Core Formation Tier. Those who could cultivate to this cultivation level were basically old monsters who were hundreds of years old, and those who could break through to the Core Formation Tier before a hundred years old probably wouldn’t exceed ten people per planet.
Theoretically, Ling Han only had to stay here obediently for a hundred years, and he would naturally be “released after serving his sentence”, but the problem was that he had to lose his freedom in this Jia Yuan Manor for a hundred years?
What a joke.
How could he leave?
Ling Han naturally had no intention of becoming a hostage at all. He had only come here because there was a station of the Chang Clan on the Moonlight Planet. Furthermore, he could not leave, and could only depend on the large black dog to move on his behalf. This was too inconvenient.
En, Ling Han immediately thought of his alchemy skills.
For a prodigy alchemist like him, he could become an esteemed guest no matter where he went. Thus, as long as his reputation was raised, it would not be a problem for him to leave
this place.
Undoubtedly, the Foundation Dissolution Pill was the best proof.
Ling Han decided to concoct more Foundation Dissolution Pills. This not only represented wealth, but also symbolized status and identity.
Thus, he had to calm down first. He didn’t believe that the people from the Political Hostage Manor had never had the chance to go out-prisoners would go out for a walk, and in name, they were the envoys of various forces, not prisoners.
Ling Han continued to concoct alchemical pills. He had just concocted a cauldron, and his technique had not reached a state of perfection yet. There was still a lot of room for improvement.
He was quite low-key, and did not leave his residence, concocting alchemical pills every day.
The name of Political Hostage Manor was an unofficial one. In reality, the residents of Jia Yuan Manor were the envoys of various forces. Thus, the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire naturally had to express its interest. Every month, they would provide Jia Yuan Manor with a large amount of cultivation resources, but the right to distribute them was in Liu Xunyu’s
hands.
As expected, as a “captain”, she was not really doing this for the pleasure of helping others and uniting them. Instead, she possessed considerable power.
-I don’t like the look of you, so what if I give you a little less? You can’t even leave, so who are you going to complain to?
Furthermore, the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire delivered cultivation resources every month, but Liu Xunyu distributed them every day, so if one offended her, the speed of retaliation would also be very fast.
A day passed, and Ling Han stopped concocting alchemical pills. Then, he opened the connection device.
Recently, he had not been able to contact Brother Monkey. It should not be that he had turned off the connection device, but rather that he was adventuring in some Mystery Realm. Usually, in Mystery Realms, the Galaxy Network could not be connected.
Ling Han sent a message to Brother Monkey as usual, and switched to the trading interface. He hung up the news of the sale of the Foundation Dissolution Pill, and then queued up to
fight in the ranking battles.
Almost in an instant, someone sent him a message.
“F*ck, aren’t you the guy who broke Origin’s record? Why are you selling alchemical pills
now?”
“Psst, have you gone mad from wanting money? You want to sell fake alchemical pills to earn money?”
Numerous messages were sent over. Some were curious that Ling Han was actually doing the business of a peddler, while others questioned whether the alchemical pills that Ling Han was selling were real or fake.
It could not be helped. Previously, the matter of tickets had already tagged Ling Han with the label of being greedy for money, and now seeing him selling alchemical pills, there would naturally be people who would be suspicious.
Ling Han couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. Was his credibility really that low?
He added another line to the sales information, “You can use Galaxy Network’s delivery service. Return any fakes that you discover.”
This time, there were finally much fewer people who doubted him, but there were still a few scattered people who doubted him, and they did not believe him at all.
Ling Han couldn’t even be bothered to reply. He was selling Foundation Dissolution Pills, so what need was there for him to beg others to buy them?
After he put on an aloof attitude, a considerable number of people actually believed him. Moreover, with Galaxy Network as guarantor, if they really encountered a fake, they could still get their money back.
