There weren't many people who came this time, only three of them, and they didn't shout and kill as soon as they met like the previous group.

They also know the one who leads, that bad old man from Xu's trading house.

I saw him dismount and come over, and politely bowed his hand and said:

"The old Ling Zhiying is the medicine shopkeeper of the Xu's Commercial Bank branch in Xiangzhou City, and the chief alchemist of the branch. I came here today to invite a few friends to my business house as guests!"

"As a guest?" Chen Jiuge naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to think that they would be so kind, so he responded directly:

"The kid doesn't have much friendship with his predecessors and Xu's firm, so there's no need to be a guest!

Ling Zhiying laughed a few times, unhurriedly took out a jade plaque from his arms, handed it forward, and then said:

"With the little brother's alchemy talent, if you are willing to join my Xu family's firm, the old man is willing to give up the position of chief alchemist!"

Chen Jiuge didn't mean to reach out to take the jade plate, the pill was refined by Xiao Yan, and he should take it if he wanted to take it.

"What's the chief or not, the kid is not that interested!"

Xiao Yan opened the curtain, poked his head out, and casually refused.

"Oh, so that Qi Benefiting Pill was refined by this little brother?"

Ling Zhiying was smart and heard the Tao.

"Uh... Boy He De How can he be, what is the Qi Pill... I've never heard of it!"

Xiao Yan was afraid of being caught by his words, so he looked a little nervous.

Ling Zhiying sighed, naturally not believing Xiao Yan's words.

"According to the medicinal materials and proportions that the two little brothers bought in the Chinese medicine shop in the city, the old man united with seven senior pharmacists, and from yesterday afternoon to this morning, countless medicinal materials were wasted!

You should also know the magic and preciousness of this Qi Benefiting Pill! As long as you have enough Qi Benefiting Pills, you can greatly shorten the time for a martial artist to accumulate True Qi! Achieving innate qualifications is important, but... It's not absolute!"

"Is there really such a miracle medicine? They were refining the legendary Qi Pill? Wouldn't they?"

Qing Yun was stupid when she heard this, and stared at Xiao Yan's little face for a long time.

"Could it be... He's what I'm looking for... Nobleman!?"

The reason why Qingyun is desperately looking for a noble person is to achieve innate success as soon as possible. Because she was born with a cold aura in her body, she was easy to explode when she was emotional. Only when you reach the Innate Realm can you completely refine that ice qi. But for her, to achieve the innate realm, it will take more than ten years of hard work. And if she doesn't reach the innate realm, she can't marry and have children like ordinary girls!

"I don't know what the seniors are talking about, the kid is just naturally interested in refining medicines, and trying to practice his hands on weekdays is just a punishment! The few pills I sold to you before were only obtained by accident, and they were not refined by myself. You can tell that the kid is not yet this year... Seventeen, how... There may be that... Against the sky... Ability!"

After Xiao Yan heard what he said, he was afraid for a while, he didn't want to be put under house arrest and used as an alchemy tool. It's just that just now he was in a hurry to speak, and unconsciously swallowed the Qi Benefiting Pill in his mouth without knowing it.

At this time, it was already a masterpiece of medicinal properties, and the true qi in the body was surging like a chaotic tide, and hot sweat was pouring out on his forehead. He had to secretly send a message to Chen Jiuge, and then retracted into the middle of the carriage and sat down.

It's just that all this can't be hidden from Ling Zhiying, a slippery old fox. He secretly glanced at the other two people, and then slashed at Chen Jiuge with a thunderous slap.

After saying so much nonsense, Chen Jiuge had already listened to it, and in the end, it was not necessary to solve it by force! This Jianghu is really inexplicable.

Chen Jiuge didn't have time to pull the knife, but he didn't dare to be careless, and clenched his fists and opened the fire to meet it.

After only three or five moves between the two sides, Ling Zhiying found that she had encountered hard stubble, and her palms were crippled by the electric fire, which was sour and hot. So he hurriedly pulled out the long sword he carried with him, and Chen Jiuge also took the opportunity to pull out the broadsword, and the two of them had a sword and sword shadow.

The other two people, one attacked Qingyun, and the other ran away in a carriage, their purpose was very clear, they would rob people if they couldn't invite them!

Qing Yun couldn't tolerate her nobles being snatched away, so she flew on her horse and chased after her with the help of the gap with the enemy.

After a few short temptations, Chen Jiuge found that Ling Zhiying was not as difficult to deal with as he imagined. This bad old man's swordsmanship is not bad, but his light skills and strength are obviously a lot worse than that Jingyun.

In just more than 40 moves, Ling Zhiying was stabbed several times, her body was scorched black everywhere, and her hair and beard were almost burned. His right hand was also stiff and paralyzed, he couldn't hold the sword, and he was half-kneeling on the ground in embarrassment.

Looking at this young man who looked less than twenty years old, his face was full of bitterness. He knew that he was already in danger, so he trembled and said:

"Little brother... I can't think of you... At a young age, there are... And so it goes. The old decay has not much to live... If you want to do it, you can... Give it a treat!"

"Give me a good time? The chief alchemist and medicine shopkeeper of the dignified Xu's branch is doing such a dirty thing behind his back!"

Of course, Chen Jiuge also wanted to give him a good time, but he didn't dare to be careless, so he took the opportunity to speak and slowly approached. Then there was an electric claw that gripped his right arm. In a few breaths, Ling Zhiying was so shocked that his mouth and eyes were crooked, his whole body kept twitching, and finally he fell to the ground stiffly.

Chen Jiuge didn't bother to care whether he lived or died, he just picked him up and threw him into the weeds next to the post road.

"Why is this old guy so unbeaten, could it be that my strength has improved again... Forget it, don't think about it so much, it's important to save people..."

... ...

The single ride was much faster than the carriage, and Qing Yun chased for more than two miles before intercepting the carriage, and then fought with the warrior.

Another warrior who followed quickly joined the battle circle. The cultivation of the two martial artists is in the late stage of the acquired realm, and Qing Yun can barely cope with one of them, but now that the two are on the same page, she is obviously not enough.

After more than ten moves, she began to be in danger, and she was accidentally kicked to the ground. One of the warriors seemed to be angry, and he didn't mean to stop, and continued to stab with a sword.

This sword went straight to his heart, and it was clear that he was going to kill him!

At this moment, the cold ice qi in her body suddenly erupted, exuding a cold aura all over her body, and her body was quickly covered with a layer of crystal ice armor.

The sword that came straight at pierced the ice armor, but it only left a shallow white sword mark.

Relying on a solid ice armor, Qingyun began to only attack but not defend, and her speed and strength also improved significantly. It only took a dozen moves to beat these two warriors frequently, and they were embarrassed.

Qingyun also accepted it when she saw it, giving them a chance to distance themselves by mistake, hoping that they would take the initiative to retreat. Because in this state, she won't last long before her true qi runs out.

The two warriors refused to leave, but just stood three zhang away, holding their swords facing each other. Clearly, they should have found some clues. One of the warriors said tentatively:

"Little girl, it doesn't matter if you are addicted to drugs, or what peerless magic skills you have performed! Lao Tzu just doesn't believe in evil, see how long you can last!?"

As he spoke, he took out the elixir and gave one to another martial artist, but he didn't take it, it seemed that he wanted to play psychological tactics.

Qingyun knew that if she delayed any longer, she would have to be slaughtered by others when she was exhausted. So he rushed forward again with his sword...

The two men began delaying tactics, dodging around the carriage. Qingyun was afraid of injuring Xiao Yan by mistake, so she didn't dare to do her best. In this way, before she could make ten moves, she quickly weakened, and she had several swords in her body. In the end, he was kicked away, hit the back of the carriage hard, and fell to the ground and passed out.

Xiao Yan, who was meditating in the carriage, was shocked by such a sudden shock, and his true qi went backwards and spit blood, it seems that he was not lightly injured!

Just as another martial artist was about to kill Qing Yun, Xiao Yan shouted: "Stop!"

He didn't care about suppressing the disordered true qi in his body, so he poked his head out and said intermittently:

"You... If it hurts... Sister Qingyun, I'm going to die... Don't follow... You go...!"

The warrior finally restrained his killing intent and agreed to his request. Then he put the sword into the sheath and quickly shot at the acupoints around Qing Yun's body.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was a little settled in his heart, so he sat back and began to exercise again.

The warrior had just picked up Qingyun on the ground and was about to put her in the carriage when a young man in Tsing Yi rode a fast horse and galloped from the southwest post road. I saw that he suddenly grabbed the stiff rope in front of the carriage, and then flew off the horse and slowly approached.

"Boy... What about Pharmacist Ling?"

A warrior drew his sword, pointed at him and asked loudly.

"Uh... Senior Ling is behind, and he will follow soon!"

Chen Jiuge sensed from afar that the situation here was not optimistic, and he had already held the knife in his hand, ready to attack at any time.

"Stop, don't come...!"

The other warrior seemed to feel that something was wrong, and after putting down Qing Yun, he also drew his sword and put it on her neck.

Chen Jiuge paused, threw the broadsword in his hand on the open space in front of him, showed weakness, and then said:

"The kid has already promised Senior Ling to go back to the trading house with him. Senior Ling asked the kid to catch up first and persuade my stubborn brother!"

After saying that, he continued to slowly approach them.

Although he threw his weapon, the two warriors clearly did not believe what he said. The warrior with the sword facing him moved two steps forward and stopped, staring at him vigilantly, probably with the intention of waiting for him to get closer and take him down.

"Hmph... Toasting without eating and drinking, young people nowadays are really becoming more and more ignorant!" the warrior joked.

One step, two steps, three steps... Chen Jiuge's footsteps finally stopped. At this time, the distance between each other is less than three feet. If you go further, it is estimated that the warrior will have to do it.

Chen Jiuge suddenly glanced behind them, and then shouted, "Senior Ling..."

The two warriors subconsciously turned their heads, but they didn't even see Ling Zhiying's shadow...

And Chen Jiuge took this opportunity to quickly rush towards the martial artist who was holding Qing Yun hostage, and grabbed it with his hand as a claw. At the same time, the broadsword on the ground flew up in the air and slashed at another warrior, followed by an exclamation and a scream...

"It's still very reluctant!"

Chen Jiuge sighed, obviously not very satisfied with his performance. Then he didn't hurt the killer, but knocked the two people unconscious and threw them out of the post road.

Then he helped Qingyun, who was lying on the ground and unconscious, to sit up. I tested her breath with my true qi, but fortunately, the internal injuries were not serious, but my body was empty and my true qi was exhausted.

The external injuries on her body did not hurt her muscles and bones, Chen Jiuge just gave her some simple bandages to stop bleeding, and then hugged her into the carriage.

"Aren't the true disciples of the Qianyan Sect all able to predict the prophet?"

After doubting, he looked at Xiao Yan again, sensed his breath, and found that the true qi in his body was turbulent, and there were faint signs of going mad.

"Is this still a thrill...?"
