Chapter Twenty-Six: The Wage Earners of Nordir

The last winter of the 10,000-year-old Yuan of the Steelland Continent is destined to be extraordinary. Overnight, the entire northern part of the Steelland Continent was plunged into a cold and biting scenery, which was very rare.

Along with it, there was also bad news, Zong Yao, the second heir of the Sect of the Free City-State, had been confirmed to be dead, and Zong Cheng, the patriarch of the Sect of the Free City-State Sect and the first alchemist of the Steelland Continent, personally sent the news, causing an uproar on the continent.

For a time, words such as "God is jealous of talents, white-haired people send black-haired people" became people's after-dinner conversations.

Zong Cheng, the patriarch of the clan who provided the information with two sixth-order "life-sustaining pills", personally led dozens of masters in the clan to rush to the Siberian Mountains to turn the place where Zong Yao might have disappeared, but he did not find the slightest clue.

The effect of a "life-sustaining pill" can make ordinary people live for ten more years, and many martial artists are eager for it, and the twenty-year lifespan has a great chance to break through its own rank and obtain more powerful strength and longer lifespan.

Many unborn powerhouses rushed to the Siberian Mountains at the same time to assist Zong Cheng in tracking down the murderer.

In the end, according to the information provided by the well-intentioned people, all the spearheads were pointed at Liu Ge, who had a conflict with Zong Yao in the small town of Kaqier.

This name soon became the existence of a street rat, and the entire Stylan Continent was looking for this person, a fourth-order alchemist, a young man with silver hair, locked these two characteristics, and soon Argo was screened out.

The free city-state is the most financially developed country in the continent of Steelland, and it maintains good trade relations with the Black Cloud Alliance all year round, and Mr. Adam, the head of the Black Cloud Family Alliance, stood up for the first time to clarify.

"Mu Liuge is the first alchemist of the younger generation cultivated by the Black Cloud Family, and he doesn't know any martial arts at all, and the Black Cloud Family never believes that Mu Liuge has anything to do with the death of Zong Yao of the Sect Family" Everyone was just about to give up, and Mr. Adam then spoke again, "But it cannot be denied that Mu Liugo has some martial arts adventures in the Siberian Mountains" to push Ago back to the forefront of public opinion.

When Argo heard the news, he cordially greeted Mr. Adam's ancestors for eighteen generations. The No. 1 Alchemist cultivated by the Black Cloud Alliance transferred to the disciple of Vice Dean Jiao of the Nordir Academy, and it had a great deal to do with Zong Yao's death, and Argo became the young man with the fastest reputation in the Nordir Academy, but it was a pity that they were all infamous for some disloyalty and injustice.

The city of Seydon, where the Nordir Academy is located, does not allow foreign powerhouses to set foot in it, and the safety of the school needs to be guaranteed, this regulation has become the biggest buffer zone for Argo in this incident, many people in the Nordir Academy have drawn a line with Argo, and even see that Argo will avoid it from afar, and many people also point fingers at Argo, and there are many discussions, but Argo still goes his own way, and he is not worried about this matter at all.

Until one day, Zong Cheng, the alchemy master of the Free City-State, the head of the political family of the Free City-State, and the honorary chairman of the Alchemist Guild, came to the Nordir Academy.

Zongcheng entered the Nordir Academy according to normal means, so it did not arouse opposition from the top management of the school.

On this day, Ah Ge came to Jiao Yuxin's office and passed Jiao Yuxin's summons.

"Sit down" Jiao Yuxin said lightly, seeing the calm and calm Ago, Jiao Yuxin was very surprised, this disciple of his own, his psychological quality cannot be measured by common sense.

As the vice president of the Nordirdan School of Pharmacy, he is one of the only two remaining alchemy masters in the Stilland Continent, but this student of his own never seems to have a sense of honor because of being his own student, and he will always come to his office after being summoned by himself.

"There's brewed tea on the table, do you want to have a drink?" looked at the smiling Argo, Jiao Yuxin asked.

"Yes, teacher," replied Argo, who was a little thirsty, and took the teacup and poured himself a full one, and poured another one for himself.

Jiao Yuxin was anxious for a while, this is a good tea, he is reluctant to take it out and taste it, every time he will take a small sip, let the fragrance of the tea linger back and forth in the mouth, and then swallow it.

"If the teacher didn't guess wrong, Ah Ge should have already broken through the fifth-order alchemist, right?" Jiao Yuxin tried his best to let his question be careless.

"Well, I just broke through not long ago" Ah Ge nodded and said, since Jiao Yuxin and the old pharmacist are friends, Jiao Yuxin can know his strength as an alchemist, and Ah Ge doesn't feel the need to hide it.

Looking at Ah Ge's bland answer, Jiao Yuxin couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he had guessed wrong? Could it be that he was not just a fifth-order alchemist? The Dan Pharmacy Academy of the Nordir Academy could be regarded as having picked up a treasure this time.

"You have a spiritual fire in your body, don't you?"

Ah Ge picked up the teacup on the table and looked at Jiao Yuxin in surprise, did this cheap teacher see something?

"Don't be in a hurry to deny it, there is a weak sense between the spiritual fire, and there is also a spiritual fire in my body," Jiao Yuxin said.

Is there an induction between the spiritual fires? Argo slightly communicated with the spiritual fire in his body, and sure enough, he found that this pearl of fire spirit was a little more lively than before, damn it, he was careless and didn't even notice it.

"Only high-level alchemists can sense the spiritual fire in other people's bodies," Jiao Yuxin explained. "It's not surprising that you can't feel it".

Since Jiao Yuxin had sensed the existence of the spiritual fire, Ah Ge could only acquiesce.

"So, does Zong Yao's death of the Zong family have anything to do with you?" Jiao Yuxin asked suddenly, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the teacup in Ah Go's hand, hearing his words, the tea in Ah Go's hand did not ripple because of the excitement in his heart, could it be that Zong Yao's death had nothing to do with this disciple of his own?

"Teacher, how can you see it" Argo stood up and took a small step forward without a trace.

Thinking about the possibility of completely erasing this secret, the powerful Ah Ge of the Zong family can also feel that if the Zong family finds definite evidence to prove that he is the murderer of Zong Yao, will the Nordir Academy protect himself?

Even if he wanted to completely wipe out this secret, would he really be able to make a move on the old man in front of him? He had just announced that he would accept himself as an apprentice? Killing a master is like killing a father, and the Steelland Continent will have no place of its own, not to mention that he is still a friend of the old pharmacist?

Even if he did it himself, would he really be able to wipe out this old man? He was a medicine refining master, a genuine ninth-order alchemist, even if his real strength was not as good as that of a peerless powerhouse, but the strength of Jiao Yuxin's martial arts with spiritual fire would not be lower than that of an eighth-order martial artist, thinking of this, Ah Ge couldn't help but be a little discouraged, secretly hating himself for being too worried, and secretly hating that he hadn't changed this bad habit after leaving that demon teacher for so many years, and often the moment he encountered unknown dangers, his first thought was always to erase this unknown factor.

"Zong Yao's father, Zong Cheng, has come to the Nordir Academy, although it is nominally to donate teaching materials to the Nordil Academy, but is the actual situation really like this? "Combined with the recent turmoil of Zong Yao's mysterious death, Zong Cheng's arrival must be to test his student.

"Yes, Zong Yao was killed by me" Ah Ge said decisively, telling the truth of the matter may be reported by Jiao Yuxin, but if he doesn't say it, can't Zong Cheng feel the existence of the spiritual fire in his body?

"That's really the case" Jiao Yuxin was surprised, but saw that Ah Ge did not appear flustered at all because the truth of the murder was exposed, such a psychological quality is really rare.

"Hey, the contradictions between young people, why did they fall into such a situation" Jiao Yuxin sighed, feeling sorry for Zong Yao's death, Ah Ge smiled bitterly, if Zong Yao didn't die, it must be himself who died, so who else would be sad for himself today? Maybe Myron would, maybe Lan Qi would, but how long could he be sad? The Stilan Continent is just missing a dispensable person.

"Hand over your spiritual fire to the Dan Pharmaceutical Academy for safekeeping", after a long time, Jiao Yuxin said this method.

Spiritual fire, a strange thing in heaven and earth, is extremely precious to the alchemist, so he just handed it over? Could it be that this old man has been coveting his spiritual fire all along? Could it be that the frowning expression just now is all deduced?

"Good," Argo replied. Compared with the wonders of heaven and earth, the most precious thing is your own life.

"Really think about it?" Jiao Yuxin was a little shocked, this is a strange thing in heaven and earth, is it so lightly abandoned?

"Of course, it would be better if the teacher could come up with something in exchange," said Argo, did he underestimate the preciousness of the spiritual fire too much?

"At most give you a fire" Jiao Yuxin replied, the fire is the sub-fire born from the spiritual fire, and the preciousness is far less than the spiritual fire, only a little more precious than the beast fire, and only a few fires can evolve into a spiritual fire.

"Isn't it a little little," murmured Argo, the old man was too greedy.

"Hehe, the quality of this spiritual fire that produced the fire will not be lower than your spiritual fire, if you can make meritorious deeds that are beneficial to the Nordir Academy in the future, this fire will not have a chance to evolve into a spiritual fire."

Argo pouted, is he going to become a working boy at Nordir Academy in the future?
