Seeing that Jiang Xu looked extremely upset,, the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince exchanged glances, as they thought:It’s really unlucky that Liu Mufeng married such a tough husband!
In theory, whether in the Human Race or the Demon Clan, Master Alchemists were a highly respected existence. It was normal for a ninth level alchemist like Liu Mufeng to marry more than ten or twenty wives. However, since Liu Mufeng married a male tiger like Jiang Xu, there was no hope of taking another concubine.
“I’m grateful for the kindness of the two Princes. However, my time and energy are limited. I have to study both alchemy, poison, and cultivation. I really don’t have that much time to deal with too many women.” Liu Mufeng smiled and politely declined.
To be a husband? He only felt annoyed when seeing those two Princesses. They were the Daughters of an Immortal Emperor, a true golden branch and jade leaf. Not to mention that he was not interested in women, even if he was interested in women, he would not seek royal women and get himself involved in royal disputes.
“Aiya, my two Younger Sisters are going to be sad.” The Fifth Prince sighed.
“Yeah, they’re actually quite good.” The Sixth Prince also felt that if Liu Mufeng married his two Younger Sisters, it would be a good thing, but unfortunately, he was not willing.
“If you two don’t want me to kick you out, just shut up and get lost!” Jiang Xu said unhappily as he looked at the two matchmaking Princes.
Upon hearing the words, the two of them smiled bitterly, while thinking,This male tiger is really fierce!
“Don’t be angry, Immortal Friend Jiang, I have a gift here specifically for you.” As he spoke, the Fifth Prince presented a wooden box.
“Oh?” With an eyebrow raised, Jiang Xu took it over and opened it to see a fist sized fragment inside.
“What is this?” Liu Mufeng asked in confusion as he looked at the Fifth Prince.
“This is a fragment of a meteorite, which is very beneficial to Immortal Friend Jiang as he practices the Star Sword technique.” The Fifth Prince replied.
“Meteorite fragment!” Jiang Xu couldn’t help but curl his lips in a happy smile. This was a good thing.
Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but narrow his eyes and look at the Fifth Prince. “What does the Fifth Prince want? Let’s be frank.” The Meteorite Fragment is a great gift. If it weren’t for his request, the Fifth Prince wouldn’t have given such a gift.
The Fifth Prince smiled. “Dealing with smart people always saves a lot of effort.”
“The Fifth Prince, let’s first talk about your conditions. If it’s something I can’t do, we won’t be rewarded for no merit. We dare not ask for such a valuable gift from the Fifth Prince.” Liu Mufeng said bluntly as he looked at the other party.
“Immortal Friend Liu spoke too seriously, I just want to take another look at the fireworks in your possession, they were really dazzling to the eyes.” The Fifth Prince smiled and said.
Liu Mufeng raised his eyebrows. “Do you want the Seven Colored Flowing Light Poison Mist?”
“Yes.” The Fifth Prince answered very positively.

“En, I greatly appreciate this Immortal Friend Liu.” Then, the Fifth Prince carefully put the spheres into his storage ring.

“Thank you, Immortal Friend Liu.” The two Brothers took the antidote and immediately thanked him.
“No need to be polite.” Liu Mufeng waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
“Immortal Friend Liu, this poison is a tenth level, right?” The poison that could kill an Immortal King, the Fifth Prince thought this poison must be level ten.
“Yes, this poison is at level ten. The poison mist has the strongest power within an hour. After an hour, the poison mist will slowly dissipate, and the toxicity will also weaken. After two hours, the place where the poison is released will no longer be toxic.” Liu Mufeng explained.
“En, I understand. Thank you for informing us, Immortal Friend Liu.” The Fifth Prince nodded and expressed understanding.
“The Fifth Prince doesn’t need to be polite.”
“It’s getting late. Immortal Friend Liu and Immortal Friend Jiang should rest earlier. We won’t disturb you anymore. Tomorrow, I will report to my Father that the two immortals will stay for a few days and can leave after resting.”
“En.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng and his wife escorted the two Princes out of the room.
Returning to the room, Jiang Xu immediately set up a barrier, and the five beasts flew out from their sleeves once again.
“Master, when will we leave here?” Xiaoyuan asked.
“Wait a little longer, leave in the latter half of the night. Wait until the Palace guards take turns guarding the night, and the guards are not so tight before leaving.” At this moment, the banquet had just ended, and it was difficult to leave with many people and mixed eyes.
“Okay.” Xiaoyuan expressed understanding.
“Uncle Bai, teleport away from here and head to the barren mountain where we stopped outside the city previously. Is that okay?” Jiang Xu turned his head and asked Bai Hu.
“Don’t worry, there’s no problem. There are no formations or prohibitions in the Palace, and there won’t be any obstacles to teleportation.” Bai Hu nodded..
“Okay, that’s good.” Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu were both relieved.
**********
The next day, when the Fifth Prince, Sixth Prince, Seventh Princess, and Eighth Princess came together to invite Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu for lunch, everyone was shocked to find that the two had already left.
“They already left, they actually left.” Seeing that the room was empty, the Seventh Princess was very disappointed.
“En, why did they leave so quickly?” The Eighth Princess was also very disappointed. Initially, she wanted to show off well in front of Liu Mufeng today, she didn’t expect the person to have already left.
“Didn’t he say he’ll leave in three days? This scammer!” Looking at the empty room, the Sixth Prince felt very depressed. He really regretted believing in Liu Mufeng, this scammer.
“Liu Mufeng doesn’t play according to the rules.” The Fifth Prince didn’t expect Liu Mufeng to run away so fast, and he didn’t even make a sound of a move. This was a clear indication that he didn’t really trust them.
“Hmph!” Looking at the empty room, the Sixth Prince inexplicably felt unhappy and turned around before leaving.
Helplessly shaking his head, the Fifth Prince also left. He wanted to go back and report to his Father, the Emperor, and his Mother.
**********
Half a year later, Tiger Emperor, Fox Emperor, and Immortal Emperor Shao, the three old friends, sat together drinking and chatting.
“I’m telling you, Immortal Friend Shao, your disciple is really excellent. He is a young ninth level alchemist with great skills. Don’t be so boorish and recognize him already.” Looking at his friend the Immortal Shao, the Tiger Emperor persuaded the other party.
“What are you talking about, Tiger Immortal? Where did this apprentice come from? My Shao family’s alchemy is passed down from blood generation to generation, not from my generation to another generation. Those who can learn my alchemy must be my Grandchildren. How could I possibly accept outsiders as apprentices?” Shao Immortal looked puzzled.
“Oh my, I knew you wouldn’t admit it. Don’t be so picky. Although Nephew Liu is not from the Shao family, his alchemy is indeed excellent, and his character is also very good. You can let him become your Son-in-Law, Grandson-in-Law. Otherwise, you can take him as your adopted Son. Why teach him while not recognizing him?” The Tiger Emperor said earnestly as he looked at Immortal Shao.
“I…” Looking at the Tiger Emperor, Immortal Shao was confused.
“Oh? Immortal Friend Shao has accepted a disciple? How come I didn’t know about this?” Upon hearing this, the Fox Emperor immediately became interested.
“Don’t deceive me, how could you not know? The Sea Saint Immortal King was killed by Immortal Friend Shao on your behalf. After Immortal Friend Shao killed someone, didn’t he ask his disciple to deliver the head to you? The one who delivered the head is his disciple.” The Tiger Emperor said as he looked at the old fox across from him.
“What? It was Immortal Friend Shao who helped me kill the Sea Saint Immortal King?” The Fox Emperor really didn’t know about this.
“No, no, no, it’s not me. I was in seclusion a while ago and didn’t go kill the Sea Saint Immortal King.” Shaking his head, Immortal Emperor Shao quickly denied.
“But…” Upon hearing these words, the Fox Emperor looked at the Tiger Emperor.
The Tiger Emperor looked at Immortal Emperor Shao with a helpless expression on his face. “LaoShao, you wouldn’t even acknowledge Liu Mufeng even if you killed him.”
“I don’t even know him? How can I acknowledge him?” Looking at the Tiger Emperor, Immortal Emperor Shao was speechless.
“This…”
“Yes, what’s going on with the Tiger Immortal? You’ve confused us all.” The Fox Emperor asked in confusion as he looked at the Tiger Emperor.
“Oh my, my family is unfortunate.” With a sigh, the Tiger Emperor told the story to his two friends in full. In order to make his two old friends believe what he said, he deliberately recorded a memory of Liu Mufeng refining pills for them to see.
After watching the memory scene of Liu Mufeng refining pills, Immortal Emperor Shao couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “At the age of only two thousand, he is already a level nine alchemist. With such skilled alchemy techniques, possessing Mystic Fire and not being impatient, he is indeed a rare talent! I think this child’s Master is definitely not an ordinary person!”
“Is it really not you?” asked the Tiger Emperor as he looked at Immortal Emperor Shao.
“I can only hope he is my disciple, but unfortunately, he is really not.” Immortal Shao replied, shaking his head.
“But he belongs to the Shao family and has the Shao family’s waist badge. Moreover, he said his Master and I are close friends. The only human alchemist I know is you.” The Tiger Emperor shrugged as he spoke.
“Madam Shao hired more than 3,000 external alchemists. He is a very excellent ninth level alchemist, and it is not surprising that he has a waist token. As for the latter half of the sentence, ‘What is his Master is your best friend, and also the Fox Emperor’s friend?’ This sentence is mostly false.” Immortal Emperor Shao chuckled.
“Fake? How could it be? Why did he lie?”
“I don’t know, but if I ever come across this child, I might consider accepting him as my disciple.”
It had to be said that Liu Mufeng’s superb alchemy skills impressed Immortal Emperor Shao. Intuition told him that this kid had a Sacred level alchemist Master, which was why his alchemy was so exquisite and his techniques were so unique. Either way, there must be some secret about this kid. If he could obtain this secret, it would definitely have great benefits for his alchemy.
“Okay, next time I meet him, I’ll ask him well. If his Master really doesn’t want him, let him worship you as his teacher.” With a smile, the Tiger Emperor agreed.
Upon hearing their conversation, the Fox Emperor smiled. “I’m afraid this little fox has run away without a trace.”
The Fox Emperor felt that if Liu Mufeng had lied, it was highly likely that the other party would not have any background. How could a cultivator without a background make an Immortal Emperor like them find him?
Upon hearing these words, both the Tiger Emperor and the Immortal Emperor Shao laughed. “Are you talking about him or yourself?”
“Alright, let’s not talk about him anymore. Let’s have a drink.” Smiling, the Fox Emperor poured another glass of wine for the other two.
