I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Xianhe Mountain Villa.

This was also Xu Jing's first time visiting such a tranquil and elegant place.

The surrounding landscape is extremely unique, the garden scenery is full of vitality, and the spring is constantly releasing spiritual energy, nourishing every inch of soil in the entire Xianhe Manor.

Yun Shan has already begun planning to cultivate a medicinal herb garden.

And they acted immediately.

After regaining her senses, Lin Qiao didn't rest. The madness and audacity of the previous night were still echoing in her mind.

But Lin Qiao kept it all to herself.

She didn't know what she was doing.

She didn't expect Lu Xuan to give her any official status or anything like that.

She did everything in her power to repay Lu Xuan's kindness.

She doesn't expect any reward or anything like that; this is her way of repaying you.

Moreover, in Lin Qiao's opinion, she probably wasn't anything special in Lu Xuan's eyes.

Because Shen Yue and the others in Purple Lake Manor are all top-tier beauties, she would pale in comparison.

Lin Qiao didn't think about anything else; instead, she took the initiative to work with Yun Shan to cultivate the medicinal herb field.

With Lin Qiao's help, the progress of cultivating the medicinal herb fields was greatly accelerated.

Jiang Dachun was assigned to guard the main gate.

After all, he was a master who was hired with spirit stones. Having such a master standing at the door gave people a sense of security.

When Lin Qiao learned that Xu Jing had arrived, she patted the dirt off her hands and hurriedly went to greet her.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Jing looked at Lin Qiao and Yun Shan, who were covered in dirt. These two stunning beauties were doing such rough work.

"Grandpa Lu asked Sister Yunshan to cultivate a medicinal herb garden, and I was just helping out."

"Grandpa Lu seems to be refining pills right now."

Lin Qiao said.

"It's okay, I'll wait for him over there."

"And this yard is so big, why don't I find some servants for you?"

Looking at the large courtyard, Xu Jing realized that with only Lin Qiao and the others around, it would be inconvenient for them to eat or do other things.

"Let's listen to Grandpa Lu's opinion on this."

Lin Qiao didn't dare to make the decision on her own.

She's not someone of any status.

Xu Jing smiled at Lin Qiao; this little girl was quite sensible.

"I'll ask in a bit, you go ahead and get busy."

Xu Jing said.

Lin Qiao nodded and immediately went back to the herb field to help.

Around afternoon.

Lu Xuancai walked out of the alchemy room.

Lu Xuan naturally didn't care about Lin Qiao and the others' food and drink; they could handle such things themselves, so there was no need for him to worry about it.

Jiang Dachun was also very straightforward. He was basically on guard duty all the time, and when he was hungry, he would eat the dry food and water he brought with him. He was not picky at all.

Xu Jing was waiting for Lu Xuan in the side hall. When she saw Lu Xuan come out, Xu Jing quickly went up to him.

"master."

"Jing'er's here? Why do you look so worried?"

When Lu Xuan saw Xu Jing arrive, he immediately stepped forward and touched her without any hesitation.

Xu Jing, being a mature woman, naturally slumped into Lu Xuan's arms. After a series of playful exchanges of resistance, she pressed Lu Xuan down into a chair, then knelt down and focused on relieving the old man's fatigue.

Lu Xuan did indeed feel somewhat tired.

After all, refining a fourth-grade pill is no easy task.

This time, the speed was increased.

But when Xu Jing's sweet words and lips touched him, Lu Xuan immediately became more alert.

Sure enough, this method of relieving fatigue is still the most effective.

Half an hour later, Xu Jing returned after washing up.

They even brewed a pot of tea especially for Lu Xuan.

"Hehe, Jing'er, you've worked hard... You looked so worried just now, is there something you want to tell me?"

Lu Xuan took a sip of tea and looked at Xu Jing.

Xu Jing didn't hide anything either.

He told Lu Xuan everything about Xu Dingyan.

For Xu Jing, this is the most trustworthy and reliable person in the world right now.

That must be Lu Xuan.

The rest of the people are unreliable and cannot be entrusted to anyone.

"I wondered what it was all about, but it's just a little kid."

As Lu Xuan's cultivation level increased, he naturally began to disregard these people.

Of course, Lu Xuan was very clear about which level he could provoke and which level he couldn't.

It's impossible for Lu Xuan to make an enemy of the entire Gu Yun Pharmacy.

The overall strength of the Ancient Cloud Pharmacy is naturally quite formidable.

A business network capable of covering the entire dynasty.

Even Lu Xuan in his current state wouldn't be able to deal with it.

But Lu Xuan doesn't need to overturn the entire Ancient Cloud Pharmacy.

The only one to deal with is Xu Dingyan.

Sometimes, dealing with enemies doesn't necessarily require force. When you have money, you can also defeat your opponents using legitimate methods.

"This time, Xu Dingyan came prepared. He is a member of the Xu family, so we can't just kill him by force."

"The only way is to put something more valuable up for auction. I plan to sell all the Grade 3 elixirs you gave me in one go."

Xu Jing said.

She came here partly to see if Lu Xuan had any good suggestions.

On the other hand, she also wanted to seek Lu Xuan's opinion. After all, if she really becomes the person in charge later, the demand for third-grade pills will naturally be even greater if she takes out so many pills at once.

She wouldn't have dared to adopt such a strategy if Lu Xuan hadn't backed her up.

Upon hearing Fang Jing's words, Lu Xuan frowned slightly, then shook his head.

"no."

No...

Fang Jing's heart skipped a beat when she heard Lu Xuan say those two words.

Although I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, I quickly rallied and didn't let my feelings of loss show on my face.

Lu Xuan already had a very hard time cultivating and refining pills.

For the sake of his career, he even made Lu Xuan, who was already quite old, work overtime to refine pills.

I was the one who was too abrupt.

I should have realized this long ago.

That's so inconsiderate of Lu Xuan.

Just as Fang Jing was about to apologize to Lu Xuan.

But then Lu Xuan continued speaking.

"Even if you take out more grade three pills, they're all useless."

"No matter how many there are, it's useless."

"At least a fourth-grade elixir is needed to have a certain deterrent effect."

As he spoke, Lu Xuan took out the Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill that he had just refined.

The Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill was originally intended by Lu Xuan to be sold for money and then used to exchange for some good things.

After all, he had just taken a Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill.

If taken consecutively in a short period of time, the efficacy of the medicine will decrease significantly.

It will be less than 30% of what it used to be.

If Lu Xuan had ten or eight coins, he wouldn't mind wasting them like this, since everything that ends up in his stomach is good anyway.

But now it has a better use.

Lu Xuan didn't hide anything either.

Xu Jing is, after all, one of our own.

If he rises to power in the future, it will also benefit the family.

Lu Xuan wanted more than just the immediate pleasures of life; he wanted to lay the groundwork for the entire Wan Shi Clan!

The mysteries of one's own incense tree may not be impossible.

Therefore, Xu Jing not only wants to become the person in charge of Jinyuan City, but also wants to control the entire Guyun Pharmacy in the future!

"A fourth-grade elixir!"

Xu Jing's beautiful eyes widened, and her pretty face showed a somewhat dazed expression.

I had already thought of a very likely scenario in my mind, but I just couldn't believe it. After all, believing something like this isn't so easy.

unless……

The next moment, Xu Jing saw the Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill that Lu Xuan took out.

The luster, aroma, quantity, and texture of a fourth-grade elixir...

It is completely different from the third-grade elixir.

If a third-grade elixir is a well-carved stone, then a fourth-grade elixir is a naturally formed gem.

You don't even need to have a discerning eye; just put the two items side by side, and you'll be able to see them clearly.

"Master...this...this is a fourth-grade elixir!"

Xu Jing looked at Lu Xuan with a shocked expression.

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

"If we're going to fight, we should fight until he's completely defeated."

"In that case, you will first use a grade three pill, and then use this grade four pill."

"It's a pity we don't have the medicinal herbs or the time, otherwise we could have refined a few more."

Lu Xuan said with some distress, because he was not sure if this would guarantee a win.

"No need, no need. This one grade four pill is enough to suppress the entire scene."

"Even if Xu Dingyan can bring pills, they will at most be mid-grade or high-grade grade three."

"It is absolutely impossible to reach the level of a fourth-grade elixir."

"Even the Northern Spirit Pill Sect hasn't sent any news. They sent some fourth-grade pills for auction, and there was talk of sending a fourth-grade pill formula, but it seems that it hasn't been finalized."

Xu Jing quickly said.

A fourth-grade elixir is not something just anyone is willing to part with.

This elixir is extremely valuable.

It could even be said that it was more valuable than the position of the head of Jinyuan City.

If anyone were to present the head of the Xu family with a fourth-grade pill at this time, their position as the head of Jinyuan City would be a sure thing.

It was a completely foregone conclusion.

Xu Jing really didn't expect this.

Lu Xuan was actually willing to give her such strong support.

"Master...this fourth-grade pill is far too precious..."

"Take it, we're family, no need for formalities."

"You need to readjust your goals. What is a mere magistrate of Jinyuan City? Don't limit your vision to the small Xu family or even the Xuanwu Dynasty. There is a much wider world out there."

Lu Xuan said, and gave the young man a couple of criticisms.

This is so that Xu Jing can broaden her horizons.

Xu Jing immediately nodded in agreement.

"Yes, sir, your criticism is correct."

"Put the pills away."

"You just said that kid brought in orders worth three million taels of silver?"

Lu Xuan asked.

"Yes... but that's not a problem. I've already negotiated with several companies in the city, so getting a million-dollar order shouldn't be a problem."

"One million is too little."

"It will cost at least eight million."

Lu Xuan waved his hand, stood up, and said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jing felt that Lu Xuan's figure had become incredibly majestic at that moment.

What a magnificent and imposing presence!

As expected of my master.
