Chapter 21: Ink Soul Contract Pill

The news of tonight quickly reached the City Lord's Mansion.

Inside the hall, a guard knelt on one knee and reported respectfully: "My Lord, I saw this with my own eyes..."

Su Yue frowned and fell into deep thought.

Chen Jianyu is a leader among the younger generation of the Dachuan Dynasty, known as the Thirteenth Sword Emperor. How could he have fallen to such a state?

"City Lord, there is one more thing..." The guard's voice was a little hesitant.

"Say!"

"Yes, City Lord."

The guard continued, "In addition, I also discovered that the young lady seemed to have gone to Fanlou..."

"what?"

Su Yue stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open, and an invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire hall, "You said Qingying was also in Fanlou, when did it happen?"

"I also encountered it by chance..." The guard felt the anger emanating from the city lord and was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and began to stutter.

"It's just nonsense!"

His face turned dark, and Su Yue slapped the table beside him, and the solid mahogany table instantly broke into pieces.

Su Yue was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He lost his wife at an early age and doted on his only daughter. He was afraid that she would melt if he held her in his mouth, and afraid that she would fall if he held her in his hands. But the older this girl grew, the more trouble she caused him.

……

Not long after, Su Qingying and Xiaohuan were tiptoeing in from the back door of the City Lord's Mansion.

They didn't know that the matter had been exposed. When they returned to the City Lord's Mansion, Su Yue had a dark face and sat in the backyard hall without saying a word, holding a flattened teacup in his hand.

Seeing this, Su Qingying and Xiaohuan looked at each other and saw a hint of uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Xiaohuan was so scared that she shrank her neck and hid behind Su Qingying, praying in her heart that the city lord would not find out that it was her who came up with this bad idea.

"Dad, why haven't you rested yet?" Su Qingying gritted her teeth, walked in front of Su Yue, and tried to act coquettishly.

Su Yue suddenly opened his eyes, and two sharp gazes stared at Su Qingying like two sharp swords, scaring Su Qingying so much that the smile on her face froze.

"You still remembered to come back. I thought you were enjoying yourself so much that you had completely forgotten about your father!"

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Su Qingying blinked her big eyes innocently, but her heart skipped a beat. Was she discovered?

"Dad, I..." Su Qingying spoke timidly, her voice as thin as a mosquito.

"What do you mean by 'you'? You still dare to quibble. Do you know where Fanlou is?"

Su Yue angrily slammed the table, shaking the teacup and splashing tea everywhere, "Is that a place for a girl like you to go?"

Xiao Huan was so scared that she trembled and knelt on the ground. "Lord City Lord, please calm down. It was my fault. I instigated Miss to go to Fanlou. Miss was just curious for a moment. Please forgive Miss this time!"

"Hmph, don't think I don't know. Your master has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. When did he ever go out to play without your master taking the lead?"

Su Yue glared at Xiao Huan, then turned his gaze to Su Qingying, "Tell me the truth, what on earth did you go to Fanlou for?"

"Dad, I'm just curious and want to go and take a look..."

Su Qingying's eyes turned red when she saw that she was not being coquettish. She defended herself aggrievedly, "Dad, I really went there to see the world this time. I definitely didn't do anything out of line." "What good things can you see in a place like Fanlou that is filled with smoke and miasma?"

Su Yue blew his beard and glared, feeling very disappointed. "Do you know that places like Fanlou are full of people of questionable character? You are a girl. If something happens to you, what will I, your father, do?"

"Dad, don't be angry. I know I was wrong. I won't do it again next time."

Su Qingying's eyes were red, and tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Her pitiful appearance made Su Yue's heart tighten, and he immediately softened.

"Daddy~"

Seeing Su Yue's expression ease, Su Qingying immediately seized the opportunity, hugged Su Yue's arm and acted coquettishly, "Daddy, don't be angry, your daughter will be obedient next time and will never run around again."

Su Yue couldn't stand his daughter's coquettish behavior, so he sighed helplessly, "Forget it, forget it, I'll let you go this time. If you dare to sneak out again next time, I'll put you in solitary confinement!"

"Thank you, Daddy. You're the best!" Su Qingying burst into laughter and rubbed Su Yue's arm affectionately.

"If you are really bored, Dad can take you out to travel, or visit other cities!" Su Yue looked at his precious daughter and said softly.

"Really? Daddy is the best." Su Qingying said happily when she heard this.

Su Yue looked at his daughter's innocent smile, and the last trace of anger in his heart disappeared.

He had only this one daughter, and he had held her in his hands since she was young for fear of dropping her. He was reluctant to hit her, and dared not scold her too harshly. In the past, the most he had punished her was to make her kneel in the ancestral hall, which was already considered a severe punishment.

If it was his son, let alone making him kneel in the ancestral hall, Su Yue would have been considered a loving father by not hanging him up and beating him.

……

Tianhuang City, Biling Dan Hall.

“Hahahaha, it’s done, it’s done, I’ve finally mastered it…”

The alchemy room was filled with a peculiar medicinal fragrance, different from the fragrance of ordinary elixirs. This fragrance was mixed with a faint smell of blood, which made people feel refreshed when they smelled it.

Lu Daocheng stood in front of the medicine cauldron, laughing loudly, his face flushed, as if he was ten years younger.

Several black pills were slowly rotating in the medicine cauldron, emitting a faint light, like obsidian, mysterious and profound.

"This Ink Soul Contract Pill took me several years of hard work to research, and now it's finally done!"

Lu Daocheng held a pill carefully, his turbid old eyes flashing with brilliance, as if he was admiring a rare treasure.

This Mohun Contract Pill is the result of his many years of experience and hard work in alchemy. Its efficacy is extraordinary and can help warriors sign equal contracts with those high-level monsters.

You know, most common contract methods are compulsory master-servant contracts, which will not only damage the potential of monsters, but also make the monsters feel resentful and find it difficult to exert their full strength.

As for this Ink Soul Contract Pill, as long as a drop of the holder's blood is mixed into the pill and then given to a monster to take, the monster's mind and soul can be controlled, connecting it to the monster's own bloodline and being driven by it for life.

While Lu Daocheng was muttering to himself, he carefully put the Mo Soul Contract Pill into a jade box, put it in his arms for close safekeeping, and then staggered out of the alchemy room.

For many nights, he pondered over the alchemy furnace, his hair falling all over the floor, and now he finally succeeded.

Once this elixir came out, not to mention the fifth-grade alchemists, even the sixth-grade and seventh-grade alchemists would have to look at Lu Daocheng with new eyes.

Lu Daocheng, a fifth-rank alchemist, looks like an old man in his sixties. He opened a Bilingdan Hall in Tianhuang City.
