Chapter 17: The Four Princes

Behind the triangular platform, there is a large wooden shed that has just been built for less than two days.

Originally, there were several small courtyards connected to each other, but all of them have been demolished for the purpose of this "Thousand Elixir Society". Now, the unusually spacious shed was filled with young elixir masters, who were lined up in twenty columns according to the serial numbers they had received when they had signed up.

When Nie Kong walked in through the side door at the nearby wall, he was really startled. He originally thought that this medicine would be better than five hundred people, but the inside of the wooden shed was dark and oppressive, and roughly estimated, there were at least nearly a thousand people, all of whom were young men and women in their teens and twenties.

Wouldn't it be that all the elixir masters under the age of twenty-five in the Dacheng Empire came here to participate in the competition, right?? He came to participate in the medicine meeting this time, initially at the request of Nie Xingyun and Lian Tianxin, and later heard that there were very precious herbs in the final reward, and he himself was also excited.

Everyone closed their eyes and recuperated, or looked around, or whispered, or put on a calm appearance, but in fact, the tension in their hearts had been exposed by the constantly pulling corners of their mouths. Nie Kong only glanced around slightly, and was about to take the number plate to find his location.

"Nie Kong, Nie Kong......"

A coquettish voice that was extremely suppressed drilled into his ears, and Nie Kong turned his eyes to look, only to see a girl in green waving at him in the first column of elixir masters, it was Mu Xiaoling.

"What's the matter?" Nie Kong walked towards her.

"Your place is right behind me. Mu Xiaoling rolled her eyes.

"How do you know?"

"Of course I do. Yesterday afternoon, when Sister Fengyan from the Nie Family's Alchemy Hall came to register for you, I gave her the number plate. Mu Xiaoling grinned, took out her own number plate and lit up in Nie Kong's eyes, "That's right." Quick, come here, plug in my back. ”

"Plug in your back?"

When Nie Kong heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, how could this sound so silvery and, especially since the person who said this was a delicate and beautiful girl. "Uh-huh", "uh-huh" coughed twice, Nie Kong held back a smile and said, "Sister Xiaoling, then I really plugged in behind you." ”

"Plug it, plug it in. Mu Xiaoling was a little inexplicable by Nie Kong's laughter, and waved his white and tender little hand suspiciously.

"I plugged in. ”

So, Nie Kong inserted behind Xiaoling Sister in a serious manner. At this time, the young man in the back couldn't hold it back any longer, he shivered with one hand and nodded at Nie Kong and Mu Xiaoling, holding his stomach with the other hand and laughing strangely, and after a while, his face was red with laughter, and his eyes were full of tears.

Mu Xiaoling was confused, recalling the scene just now, and gradually understood the ambiguity in the words of the two, her white and tender face suddenly turned red, and she glared at the young man behind Nie Kong in embarrassment, and said coquettishly: "Xiao Jiang, if you laugh again, I will beat you." ”

"Sister Xiaoling, I won't laugh anymore, you continue to interject...... Poof, no, I still can't help it......" The young man said with a tense face, and at the end, he snorted again, squatted down and pounded the ground with both hands. The elixir masters around them, who vaguely understood what was going on, had a strange smile on their faces.

Seeing that the corners of Nie Kong's mouth twitched, Mu Xiaoling's cheeks were even hotter, and he stomped his feet angrily: "Ignore you, two villains." ”

No one spoke, Nie Kong stood a little bored, took the initiative to raise his hand and touched Mu Xiaoling's knife-like fragrant shoulder in front of him, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiaoling, such a lively scene, why didn't Hongya come to take a look?" Not many days after the end of the illusory world experience, Mu Hongyan returned to Luocheng, Kyoto.

Mu Xiaoling was still a little embarrassed, and hummed without looking back: "She sneaked to Jiyang City to play some time ago, which made her father very angry, so as soon as she went back, she was locked up at home to cultivate, saying that if she didn't break through to the six grades of melting spirits, she was not allowed to go anywhere." She sneaked away again a few days ago, but was caught by her father before she left Los Angeles. ”

"I see. Nie Kong couldn't help but laugh, with Mu Hongyan's lively and active surname, forcing her to cultivate, I am afraid it would make her more uncomfortable than killing her.

"Sister Xiaoling, look, the fourth prince of the royal family is here!" The young man who was squatting and wiping his tears suddenly jumped up and exclaimed in surprise.

Nie Kong and Mu Xiaoling looked at each other, and sure enough, they saw a white figure appear at the side door of the wall. The man was about twenty years old, with a slender body, a handsome face, a smile on the corner of his lips, and a snow-white dress that lined him like a jade tree in the wind, outstanding.

"Why did he come to participate in this competition?" Mu Xiaoling frowned slightly.

"Is this Fourth Prince very powerful?" Nie Kong asked with a smile, his eyes looking around, and he found that many calm elixir masters began to have sad faces and hung their heads. There were more elixir masters chattering together, and the object of muttering seemed to be the fourth prince.

"Needless to say. Now there are only a few more famous elixir masters under the age of twenty-five in the Dacheng Empire. Sister Xiaoling is one, Qu Xinyi of the Qu family is also one, and there is a jade green crown of the Luoxia Sect. All of them can successfully refine the three-grade elixir, and they are infinitely close to the three-grade elixir master. But the most powerful thing is His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, I heard that he has long been a third-grade elixir master, and the success rate is amazingly high. ”

After Xiao Jiang finished popularizing science to the lonely and unheard Nie Kong, he introduced himself with a smile, "Brother Nie Kong, I am Mu Xinjiang, Mu Xiaoling's cousin. I heard Sister Xiao Ling tell you, you are the apprentice of Master Nie Xingyun and Master Lian Tianxin, and your level is definitely not much worse. This time, the opponents of you and Sister Xiaoling are the Four Princes, Qu Xinyi, and Yuqingguan, as for me, don't care, just come here to make up the numbers. ”

It turned out to be a soy sauce beater!

Nie Kong's head smiled slightly, among the nearly a thousand elixir masters here, there seemed to be many who came over to make up a dozen soy sauces like Mu Xinjiang.

"Brother Nie Kong, Sister Xiao Ling, don't worry. What about the three-grade elixir master? The medicine will be compared, and the comparison is not necessarily the grade of the refined elixir. I think there's still a lot of hope that you'll have the last laugh. Mu Xinjiang pretended to be mature and comforted the two.

"Shut your mouth! It's long-winded, it's annoying!" Mu Xiaoling gave him a roll of his eyes angrily, obviously still haunted by his joke just now.

"Then thank you for your good words. Nie Kong smiled.

As he spoke, the four princes had already walked to the side of the elixir master queue, and smiled at Xiao Ling: "Xiao Ling, I'm glad you're here." It seems that this time the medicine will be bigger, and I finally met an opponent who can use half of my strength. I hope that Qu Xinyi of the Qu family and the Yuqing crown of the Luoxia Sect can also appear, and if there are a few more opponents, I will not be too lonely. Otherwise, even if you win, it's not fun. ”

"Your Highness will not be disappointed, as far as I know, Qu Xinyi and Yu Qingguan have also signed up. Mu Xiaolingdai frowned slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.

"Very good! I heard that the prizes prepared by the Mu family this time far exceeded the previous 'Thousand Elixir Meeting'. I'm curious to know what the prize is, the first place in the big competition, I'm bound to win. Xiao Ling, if we meet at the last level, I will never show mercy. After speaking, the four princes walked forward with a smile.

"Megalomania!"

Looking at his back, Mu Xiaoling scolded angrily, "I said how grandpa left the No. 1 card, it turned out to be for him." ”

"Yes, when so many of our elixir masters are muddy?"

Mu Xinjiang was also so angry that he clenched his fists, and snorted, "This means that Sister Hong Aya has no talent for refining medicine, otherwise, with Sister Hong Aya's cultivation of the five grades of soul fusion, let alone refining the third-grade elixir, even the fourth-grade elixir is not impossible." In that case, how can he be arrogant?"

Seeing the resentful appearance of the two, Nie Kong didn't feel it.

These four princes were smiling and soft from beginning to end, but there was an undisguised arrogance in and out of his words, but when he spoke, he looked very gentle and polite. Speaking in such a way is tantamount to not taking Mu Xiaoling in his eyes at all, and it is even more disgusting......
