In reality, if he really said that it was not enough, Leng ruoxue would not give it to him anymore. She would even blacklist him. After all, Leng ruoxue was also an Alchemist. Although she had never refined a pill with the fish scale flower as the main ingredient, the amount of medicinal pills used was basically the same. The more precious the herb was, the less the amount needed. On the other hand, the herbs that were in high demand were ordinary herbs. Hence, if he really dared to say that one petal was not enough, If that was the case, his friendship with Leng ruoxue would come to an end. Hence, the facts had proven that his character could still withstand the test.

“Since that’s enough, then I’ll have to trouble President Shen. These two leaves will be my payment, is that okay?” Leng ruoxue said with a smile.

“Yes! I can!” Shen nuo was very happy. The most valuable part of the fish scale flower was its petals, but its leaves were also good ingredients for refining pills. Furthermore, their value was not low.

“Miss Leng, I’m going to refine the pill.” After Shen nuo finished speaking, she did not even send her guest off, and immediately went into her temporary pill refining room. When Leng ruoxue saw this, she laughed and returned to her room to wait for news.

The moment she returned to her room, Leng ruoxue was hugged by the demon.

Looking at the evildoer’s gloomy face, Leng ruoxue was slightly stunned. She could not help but ask,””Evildoer, who made you angry?”

“Who else could it be besides you?” The demon said in an unpleasant tone.

“Uh! I didn’t do anything!” Leng ruoxue felt wronged.

“Do you have a good relationship with that Shen guy? She even stared at him for so long. He’s old and ugly, what’s there to look at?” The demon was going to settle the score after autumn. He had seen that Xue ‘er had been busy with the fish scale flowers, so he had endured it until now.

“Uh!” When Leng ruoxue heard the demon’s words, her forehead was filled with black lines. She thought to herself, I’m finished! This vinegar jar had acted up again. Although Shen nuo looked like she was in her forties, she was still a handsome uncle! In his words, she was old and ugly. However, at this point, she could not speak up for Shen nuo. Otherwise, the demon would definitely be even more persistent. Furthermore, she was very good at coaxing the demon, so she was not flustered.

“Demon, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t have a good relationship with President Shen. This is only our second time meeting each other. Moreover! He’s old and ugly. Why are you jealous?” Leng ruoxue smiled as she consoled him.

“Then why did you stare at him for so long?” The demon half-squinted his bright black eyes and said with slight displeasure.

“No way! When talking to someone, it’s polite to look at them. I can’t lower my head and talk to him! That would make me look like I’m not presentable, don’t you think so?” Leng ruoxue argued.

“Hmph! You’re right!” The demon snorted coldly. Although he knew that Xue ‘er was quibbling, he could not say anything. This made him quite depressed!

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Leng ruoxue was overjoyed and opened the door without thinking. Seeing that it was uncle long and baby, she was overjoyed.

“Uncle long, quickly come in.” Leng ruoxue urged.

Uncle long looked at Leng ruoxue, then at the evil-looking man with an unfriendly expression. He then carried his baby into the room. The moment baby saw Leng ruoxue, although it wanted to jump into her arms, it chose to stay in uncle Long’s arms when it saw the evil-looking man’s dark face, in case it lost its life.

“Little girls, what’s wrong?” Uncle long asked curiously as he felt the strange atmosphere between the two.

“Nothing, uncle long. Didn’t you go back to your room? Why are you here again?” Leng ruoxue asked in bewilderment.

“Hehe! Baby went to find me, and now I’m its helper. ” Uncle long said with pride.

After hearing uncle Long’s words, Leng ruoxue couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat off her forehead. She thought to herself,”uncle long doesn’t have to be so happy even if he’s just a hired thug, right?” She had always thought that uncle long was an expert who didn’t care about anything. However, after getting to know him, she realized that uncle long was also an expert who wanted to see the world in chaos. At first, she couldn’t accept this fact, but now she was much calmer.

“Cute master, there are so many people who want to kill your baby. Wu…If it wasn’t for uncle long, you wouldn’t have been able to see your cute baby again.” At this moment, baby’s Silver eyes were filled with tears as he said pitifully. That pitiful little appearance was really pitiful.

“Eh? What’s going on?” Leng ruoxue was a little surprised. She had thought that her baby had already settled those people!

“It’s like this. Back in the Grand elder’s room, I was almost done with those people. Many of them paid us to protect them and bring them out of the secret realm. However, a few people from the Yao and Wen families came later. When they heard the amount we charged, they immediately turned hostile and even encouraged everyone to kill me. I hid at uncle Long’s place and escaped. Otherwise, my lovely master would never have been able to see your treasure again.” Baby said with tears in his eyes.

“So, the Yao and Wen families don’t need our protection or help to get them out of the secret realm?” Leng ruoxue asked with uncertainty.

“Mm! At least half of them don’t need us to protect them or bring them out of the secret realm, and some of these people include the elders of the Cheng family. Of the eight divine domains, only the ning and Yin families don’t object. ” Baby reported.

“Since that’s the case, refund them their accommodation fees! We don’t care anymore. ” Leng ruoxue said emotionlessly.

“Alright!” Baby laughed evilly. Returning their accommodation fees also meant that their master would not care about their life or death. Hehe! That’s great. It had long been disdainful of those people’s superior attitude. Moreover, the eight divine regions were nothing great. If they wanted to leave this place and keep their lives here, they had to rely on master! It was a pity that they couldn’t understand. There would come a time when they would regret it. At that time, it would charge more money than it was now, it thought secretly.

“Cute master, I asked those alchemists and blacksmiths to hand over pills or equipment. It’s considered giving them special treatment. After converting it to money, it’s almost half of what those aristocratic families have. So, they’re all very satisfied and didn’t cause any trouble.” Baby said again.

“Mm! Thank you for your hard work, baby. ” Leng ruoxue patted her baby’s head and consoled him.

“It’s not hard to work for my lovely master. My baby was just a little frightened. ” Baby lowered his head and said.

“Baby, don’t worry. I’ll get justice for you.” Leng ruoxue promised. Just as she finished her sentence, someone knocked on the door again.

Leng ruoxue gave the evildoer a look. The evildoer understood her meaning and stood up to open the door. Outside the door were master ning, first elder, and master Cheng.

“Xue ‘er! Godfather is here to see you. ” As the master of the ning family spoke, he strode into the room, followed by the great elder and the master of the Cheng family.

“Godfather! We’ve just separated. ” Leng ruoxue said helplessly.
