Chapter 700: Dragon Condensation Pill Appears in Beidi? Li Moqing is filled with murderous intent
In the front hall of the main house, Jiang Dongping sat in the first seat on the upper left, while Zhenli, Beiji, Xizhu and Nanqi sat on both sides respectively. The atmosphere in the whole hall was extremely solemn.
"Dragon Condensation Pill?"
"How could Beidi possibly have this legendary elixir?"
Nanqi frowned and thought of someone. The emotion in his eyes changed instantly and he looked at Baili Moqing.
Xi Zhu glanced at him and guessed what he meant. "What are you thinking? If it was really made by the princess, how could she give it to Bei Di and not give it to us, Tianqi?"
"Oh, that's right!" Nanqi's expression relaxed. Come to think of it, if this medicine was really made by the princess, how could the master not know about it?
"Your Highness, we are still not sure about the Dragon Condensing Pill. It might be a wrong intelligence." Xizhu felt that this matter might not be very reliable. In this world, if there is anyone who can make the Dragon Condensing Pill, it should be no one else except the princess.
Zhen Li shook his head. "The Dugu clan has come out of seclusion and become Shen Chuan's guards. This situation is very unusual. If there is not enough temptation, the Dugu clan will not be able to break the ancient precepts so easily!"
Bei Ji also said, "I heard that the new leader of the Dugu clan, Dugu Guangxia, entered the ranks of the second-grade intermediate masters three years ago. If there is really news about the Dragon Condensation Pill, then it is not surprising that the Dugu clan came out of seclusion to seek the pill."
Jiang Dongping stood up, a trace of impatience on his face. "No matter whether this Dragon Condensation Pill really exists or not, as long as they don't mess with us, Tianqi, then let them do whatever they want!"
"If they really don't know how to live or die, and think they can attack Apocalypse with just a few masters, then let them see what kind of momentum our Apocalypse's million-strong army has!"
Baili Moqing held the jade tassel around his waist in his hand, deep in thought.
He remembered that the last time they were in Shanwai Valley, Shen Chuan, who was still Su Lanzhi at the time, said that Beidi had the recipe for the Dragon Condensing Pill, but a very important herb in it had disappeared for a long time. It was the herb called Ningyuan Dragon Pearl that Shu He discovered.
This medicine is the main ingredient of the Dragon Condensing Pill, and he did say that he wanted to cooperate with Shu He to refine the Dragon Condensing Pill.
Could it be that Shen Chuan and Shu He had actually tried to refine the Dragon Condensation Pill in the past six months? And had they succeeded?
It shouldn’t be. If he really succeeds, Shen Chuan won’t be unable to defeat him.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Since the Dugu clan has come out, the other ancient clans should also be ready to make a move."
"Since the news about the Dragon Condensing Pill is inconclusive, let's make it clear and spread it throughout the streets and alleys of Beidi!"
The Dugu clan wants the Dragon Condensation Pill, so they also have to ask the other clans if they are willing!
Nanqi's eyes lit up. "Master, are you planning to use the other ancient tribes of Beidi to contain the Dugu tribe, so that they can cause internal strife in the Beidi martial arts world and leave Shen Chuan with no energy to think about foreign aggression?"
Baili Moqing didn't say anything, but he also agreed with this statement.
His and Shu He's wedding day is coming soon, and he doesn't want anyone to disturb them during this period!
Xi Zhu agreed to the offer. However, he still had doubts. "Your Highness, does this Dragon Condensation Pill really have the legendary miraculous effects? Can it allow a second-grade master to instantly break into the ranks of the first-grade? This is a great realm! And it is the peak realm! Can a small pill really do that?"
Could this be a smokescreen dropped by Shen Chuan?
If it was really him who used fake elixirs to deceive the Dugu clan, then the moment the truth was revealed, Shen Chuan would be overwhelmed by the Dugu family alone!
"Your Highness, we can release the news about the real and fake elixirs at the same time. This way, I think Beidi will become even more chaotic!"
Baili Moqing agreed to his proposal. In short, he hoped that the current Beidi would be as chaotic as possible.
Nanqi's eyes sparkled, and a hint of excitement spread across his face. "Your Highness, if there really is such a pill, then with your princess's medical skills, can she also make a few?"
If such a pill could really be made, wouldn't the master be able to become the first grandmaster to enter the first-grade realm hundreds of years after the apocalypse?
Seeing his fantastical look, Baili Moqing was speechless. Did he really think that the Dragon Condensing Pill was an elixir that could be made with casual practice?
"Let's stop here for today. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Baili Moqing spoke, and after hearing this, the others stood up at the same time.
"Nanqi, you stay!"
Nanqi's face changed and his body trembled. The others also looked at him.
His eyes showed a cry for help, but after looking around, he only saw the pitying looks of Xizhu and Jiang Dongping, and then the slightly worried look of Beiji. However, they just glanced at him and left.
What a bunch of heartless people! Aren't you afraid that something might happen to him?
Nanqi lowered his head, his body almost curled up into a ball, and he looked trembling with fear, which made him seem extremely guilty.
"Go ahead."
Baili Moqing took a sip of tea, his expression calm and his voice without any fluctuation, but it was this expression that made Nanqi even more frightened.
"Say, what did you say?"
He didn't want to stutter, but for some reason the words just didn't flow when he came to his mouth.
Baili Moqing looked at him quietly without saying a word. His seemingly peaceful eyes seemed to be piercing his heart like a knife.
"Master, Master, what do you want to ask?"
Nanqi complained bitterly, but he didn't expect that Beiji's words would come true so soon.
Where did he show his flaws?
"Are you still hiding a lot of things from me?" Baili Moqing's gentle eyes gradually became sharp, and his seemingly calm voice was actually full of crisis and displeasure.
"No, no!" Nanqi was shocked and immediately knelt down.
"Yes, it was when you went to Yaozhou to deal with the civil unrest. That day, Shen Lanzhi... no, it was Shen Chuan. He sneaked into the mansion and talked to the princess about something, but the conversation broke down... The princess's internal energy had not yet fully recovered, so Shen Chuan pressed her acupuncture points..."
Seeing the dangerous look in Baili Moqing's eyes, he quickly added, "I noticed something unusual and rushed over to see Shen Chuan being knocked out by the princess."
"The princess was unwilling to surrender, so she forcibly broke through the acupuncture points, causing the internal injuries to worsen..."
"I wanted to keep Shen Chuan, but the princess said that he is of a special status and cannot be moved..."
Baili Moqing was filled with murderous aura, and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in thousand-year-old ice. His palm rested lightly on the mahogany table next to him, but in just a moment, cracks appeared on the table.
Nanqi's forehead was covered in cold sweat. "Although the princess released Shen Chuan, she stabbed Shen Chuan with a sword in the end and said that we would be enemies when we meet again!"
Nan Qi's last words finally dissipated some of the coldness from Baili Moqing's body, and the oppressive aura on his body also lessened a little.
Feeling the pressure on his body subside, Nanqi breathed a sigh of relief.
Bei Ji was right. The master was already so angry before he even mentioned the crucial matter! If he really told him about that incident, would the master immediately go out in anger to hunt down Shen Chuan?
He quietly looked up at Baili Moqing, with a look of hesitation on his face.
Seeing this, Baili Moqing frowned and said in a very unfriendly tone, "What else?"
Nanqi lowered his head and said, "Yes, there is more, but the princess said that I cannot tell you about that matter..."
These words were taught to him by Beiji.
This matter is of great importance and extremely sensitive. Bei Ji said that if he really hid it from his master, he would not be able to bear the anger when the matter was exposed.
But this matter concerns Shu He's reputation, and such things will cause greater harm to women, so he should never say it out loud.
So Bei Ji taught him to say it this way. This way he was not hiding something from his master, but was also telling his master that there was one thing he didn't say, but it was not that he didn't want to say it, but that the princess didn't let him say it. If the master wanted to know, he could ask the princess himself.
I have to say, Beiji has a really useful brain!
This way, he wouldn't have to take responsibility, nor would he have to worry about being blamed later for hiding it from his master!
After this matter was safely over, he would definitely treat Beiji to a good drink.
After Nanqi went down, Baili Moqing sat in the hall, pinching the white jade pendant he was wearing with his fingers. Unknowingly, he broke the jade pendant.
Nan Qi's unfinished words made Baili Moqing feel uneasy. He knew that the matter must be serious, otherwise, Nan Qi would not dare to speak out.
So, what are Shu He and him hiding from him?
After being acupunctured, Shen Chuan...
He stood up suddenly, his face showing an expression of shock that he couldn't suppress, "Could it be..."
The disbelief in his eyes was suppressed in an instant, "No, if something like that really happened, Nanqi wouldn't dare to hide it!"
Perhaps he really should find some time to have a good talk with her about this matter, otherwise, it will become a thorn in his heart.
Beiji stood outside and saw Nanqi running towards him with sweat all over his forehead. He knew that the matter had been concealed for the time being.
The two walked towards the backyard, and Nanqi asked in a low voice: "Isn't it not good to hide this from the master?"
But the princess asked him not to say it, because it would be bad if he told the master without her consent.
Bei Ji was dressed in white clothes as white as jade, and his cold face showed an indescribable emotion.
There is hidden anger, suppressed pain, and unwilling guilt...
Countless mixed emotions permeated him, making him more depressed.
He said calmly, "Just keep this matter to yourself and never mention it again!"
Shen Chuan, actually did that to her! He thought he was still a gentleman!
The next time he sees that bastard, he will risk his life to get every penny of interest back for her!
"As long as the master doesn't ask, I will definitely not tell."
Bei Ji hummed, "She kept it a secret from the prince, probably because she didn't want to cause chaos between the two countries because of her, right?"
After hearing this, Nanqi's expression changed, and admiration appeared on his face, "I have to say, you have a really good brain!"
"That's what the princess told me to keep from the master! Exactly the same thing!"
Beiji stopped and felt a dull pain in his chest.
"You're really smart! If I had known earlier, I should have told you about this. If I had asked you for advice earlier, I wouldn't have been entangled and tortured for so long!"
Nanqi walked and praised, not noticing Beiji's unusual expression at all.
It was not until he reached the door of their room that Nanqi realized he was standing in the yard in a daze, looking indescribably lonely and desolate.
Nanqi was slightly startled, as if he had realized something.
Did he just say something wrong?
