novelA Boring Celebration
| ← Ch.0211 | Ch.0213 → |
As for the Demon Suppressing Pill, there were many kinds of ingredients, including more than twenty kinds of spirit herbs. However, one of the ingredients made Xiang Nan's eyes shine.
Qingling Powder!
The third-grade Demon Suppressing Pill also required Qingling Powder, and he had just two bottles. He had used one last time, and the remaining bottle could be used this time.
"Heavens help me." Xiang Nan heaved a sigh of relief. At the very least, he didn't need to make another trip to the Hundred Beast Cliff.
Qingling Powder was the most expensive and important ingredient in the Demon Suppressing Pill. Apart from Qingling Powder and spirit herbs, there were three other ingredients that needed to be collected.
Tears of Demons: As the name implies, the tears of twenty demonic beasts are refined into crystals. There is no limit to the level of demonic beasts.
Demon Spirit Grass: A kind of demon herb that is often produced in the land of the fall of a group of demons. It is not within the scope of spirit herbs and is bred from the resentment of countless demon beasts' souls.
And finally, Qinxiang pills.
'"Hiss" Xiang Nan frowned. Tears of Demons and Demon Spirit Grass were easy to obtain. They were found in the Hao Ran Mountain Range. Back then, the Hao Ran Mountain Range had been suppressed by the Hao Ran Sect, and countless demons had been killed. They would definitely be able to nurture Demon Spirit Grass.
But this Qinxiang pill
Xiang Nan instantly felt a headache. Why did he need this kind of thing in the Demon Suppressing Pill?
Qinxiang Pill was easy to deal with, but it was really troublesome to deal with, because it was something only a woman would swallow.
After consuming the Qin Xiang Pill, the woman's body would emit a faint fragrance from the inside out. It was as refreshing as an orchid in an empty valley. This fragrance would persist for several months, and it was countless times more valuable than the powder that ordinary women applied.
However, the ingredients to make the Qinxiang Pill were all from the Western Regions. If one wanted to make it themselves, there was basically no hope, unless one went to the Western Regions a million kilometers away.
"What should we do?" Xiang Nan was extremely depressed. In the end, he had no choice but to go to Zhengyang Peak to find Jiang Yu.
After Xiang Nan explained his intentions, Jiang Yu covered her mouth and smiled for a long time.
Xiang Nan rubbed his nose awkwardly and said, "Then what? Your Jiang family is one of the five aristocratic families in Donghai Province. I wonder if there is such a thing."
'"Xiang Nan, I can't tell you're a grown man. You're quite fond of beauty." Jiang Yu's face turned red with laughter.
Xiang Nan felt even more embarrassed, "This is not for swallowing, but for other purposes."
Jiang Yu finally suppressed her laughter and said, "To be honest, our Jiang Clan does not have such a thing. The Qinxiang Pill is a tribute from the Western Regions. Only those famous ladies in Haojing have it."
"But they are all important figures of the upper class. They shouldn't receive you, much less give you a precious fragrance pill."
"Ah, I think so too." Xiang Nan shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he couldn't get the Qin Xiang Pill. He could only give up on the Demon Suppressing Pill.
"Hey, don't leave yet." Jiang Yu grabbed Xiang Nan's arm and said, "We're all going to Drunken Dream Pavilion tonight to celebrate our entrance to school. Come with us."
Xiang Nan shook his head, "I won't go anymore. If I go, it will only make things more awkward."
The people gathered were from the five aristocratic families. Although Xiang Nan and them no longer had any obvious hostility, their relationship could not be said to be very harmonious. Could it be that they ran over and let others ridicule them?
"It's fine. Sunset and the others are not as stingy as you think." Jiang Yu guessed Xiang Nan's thoughts and said, "Also, I can help you ask there. Perhaps Sunset Qing has Qinxiang pills in her hands. Their Murong aristocratic family is very close to some important figures in Haojing."
"This ... Alright." When Xiang Nan heard that Qin Xiang Wan still had a show to play, he could only bravely agree.
It was night, and the better it was for Xiang Nan and Jiang Yu to go to the Drunken Dream Pavilion, this young man's pastime.
That Drunken Dream Pavilion was originally the Jiang Clan's business, so Xiang Nan naturally entered smoothly this time.
Today's Drunken Dream Pavilion was as lively as usual. Jiang Yu brought Xiang Nan all the way to a courtyard in the Heaven brand.
There were already quite a few people in the courtyard. Although this time it was to celebrate the completion of the entrance exam, it wasn't just Xiang Nan and the others who came to celebrate together. There were also more than a hundred people who came to curry favor with the five aristocratic families.
Murong Wanqing and the other four descendants of aristocratic families sat at one table alone, while the other hundred plus people were divided into five tables. During the banquet, every student desperately searched for an opportunity to toast at Murong Wanqing's table.
When Xiang Nan and Jiang Yu entered, everyone stopped moving and all their eyes fell on Xiang Nan alone.
To be honest, Xiang Nan didn't like this kind of entertainment, especially since his current identity was sensitive.
Facing the pair of eyes, Xiang Nan felt very uncomfortable. If it wasn't for the Qin Xiang Pill, he would have already turned around and left.
"Coming?" Murong Wanqing shot a sidelong glance at Xiang Nan and said, "Sit down."
"Please, Jiang Yu." Xiang Nan whispered to Jiang Yu before walking towards the table of an ordinary student.
"Xiang Nan." Jiang Yu grabbed Xiang Nan and said, "Sit with us."
As he spoke, regardless of whether Xiang Nan was willing or not, he placed Xiang Nan on the "high table" and sat down with Murong Wanqing and Shen Linhai. There were only six people on this big table.
However, after he sat down, Xiang Nan became more and more uncomfortable.
The disciples of the aristocratic families at this table were all talking about business matters. What precious and good things had they gotten from their clans recently?
Originally, this was a celebration, so everyone had some relaxed topics to discuss. This Nan was understandable, but he was unable to integrate with them.
As for the disciples on the other five tables, they were actually chatting about the five aristocratic families. Occasionally, someone would shout loudly.
"Of course! The the Murong Clan is a famous clan in the East China Sea. Of course, their wealth is all over the world."
"Ha, the Shen Clan is also very powerful. Weapons business ..."
These people were obviously flattering him, making Xiang Nan feel embarrassed for them just by listening.
What Xiang Nan liked was the scene of a group of friends drinking wine in a big bowl, eating meat in large mouthfuls, chatting and laughing happily.
A celebrities gathering like this was filled with high-end and high-grade topics. Xiang Nan really didn't have the slightest interest in it, nor did he know much about it. He could only bore his head and drink wine cup by cup. He was almost unable to sit down anymore.
"Eh? Xiang Nan, you're here." At this moment, a group of people passed by the gate of the courtyard. One of them shouted Xiang Nan's name.
Xiang Nan looked in the direction and saw Yang Lian'er standing at the door.
"Senior Sister Yang?" Xiang Nan finally laughed.
Yang Lian'er also smiled and said, "It's really hard to find you. I went to the Sun Peak specifically, but I couldn't find you. Later, I heard that you came to the Drunken Dream Pavilion."
"Come, come and sit with us. We have reserved seats in the courtyard beside us. Let me introduce you to some of our senior brothers. You are already a student of the Second Grade Academy."
Xiang Nan originally didn't want to follow him. After all, he really couldn't get along well with the people from the Second Grade Academy. He was even in a hostile state.
However, due to Yang Lian'er's face, she could only reply, "You guys go first. I'll go over to toast in a while."
Damn it, I'm sick of it tonight.
What Xiang Nan didn't know was that after Yang Lian'er's group entered another courtyard, someone whispered.
"Lian'er, is that the person you're looking for? Is that Xiang Nan?"
"Haha, I'm afraid he'll be able to handle it tonight. I just don't know if it's appropriate to do so."
Her soft words were meaningful, but people didn't know what she was plotting.
