Chapter 172 - 113 A great man is born between heaven and earth, how can he dwell long under others l
What do you think of Mi Junping?
Luo Chen was taken aback at first, why was Mi Junping brought up out of the blue?
Sikong Shoujia nervously stared at Luo Chen. He was here on a mission and needed to know Luo Chen’s true thoughts.
Then, he found that Luo Chen’s gaze on him was becoming stranger and stranger.
Like, a kind of “knowing each other” feeling?
Suddenly.
“Elder Sikong, I get you!”
Understand me?
“A real man is born in the world, how can he long linger under others!”
“You are respected and revered, with great insight and knowledge, and also approachable. Over the years, you’ve made countless contributions to the gang.”
“And now, as you grow old, you can only serve as a small steward in my Pill
Hall. It’s an insult!”
“Honestly, as the Hall Master, even I can’t stand it.”
“Rest assured, if you want to get rid of Mi Junping, I fully support you as the
Master of the Merits Hall!”
No!
What are you talking about!
The previous sentences, to be honest, made Sikong Shoujia’s blood boil, and his eyes were somewhat teary.
But that last sentence, he couldn’t bear it anymore.
Luo Chen continued: “Mi Junping, a woman with long hair but short insight!
She’s narrow-minded and harsh to people; the brothers in the gang have long been dissatisfied with her.”
“Even if her father is a Foundation Establishment Cultivator… so what! The Broken Mountain Gang is our gang, the alliance of our Rogue Cultivators.” “She is without talent or virtue, not fit to hold the position of Hall Master.” “Elder Sikong, I will surely support you in becoming the leader!”
“Stop it, stop it, please, I beg you, stop talking.”
Sikong Shoujia hastily covered Luo Chen’s mouth. His old face turned pale.
What on earth is going on!
Luo Chen was still in high spirits, having provoked a rare fire.
What a pity, the other party didn’t respond.
“No, I just wanted to ask your personal opinion on Mi Junping.” Sikong Shoujia bit the bullet, getting straight to the point, “That is, what if you and her became Dao Companion Cultivators…”
This time, it was Luo Chen’s turn to cover the old man’s mouth.
“Stop!”
“I don’t like women who are older than me!”
Sikong Shoujia didn’t react for a moment. Age?
We are Immortal Cultivators, with a lifespan of at least a hundred and eighty years, and often up to a thousand and eight hundred years, and you are talking about age?
“Age is not a problem, Xiao Luo. I’ve been there before, you…”
“Then why don’t you go propose marriage yourself!”
One sentence made Sikong Shoujia choke.
Seeing his appearance, Luo Chen knew what was going on.
It was likely that Mi Shuhua had sent him to probe.
If you think deeper, it all boils down to the Jade Marrow Pill.
Before, Luo Chen could only refine Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pills, so Mi Shuhua didn’t value him highly.
Once, jokingly, he said he was willing to take Mi Shuhua as his adopted father, but Mi Shuhua didn’t take it seriously.
The reason for this was that refining Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pills was not that difficult.
With a few decades, and if the development of the Pill Hall was good, Mi
Shuhua could always foster a few talents who could refine Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pills.
But when it comes to Medium Grade, it’s not that simple.
Mi Shuhua had no confidence in cultivating talents capable of refining Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills.
As a Foundation Establishment Cultivator facing the pressure to condense a Golden Core, he naturally couldn’t go to the battlefield himself.
Under such circumstances, Luo Chen’s importance was completely highlighted. Indispensable!
Therefore, Mi Shuhua is now interested.
He wanted to adopt the simplest and most direct method of marriage to tie Luo Chen to the ship of the Mi Family.
But Luo Chen didn’t want to.
He would rather exchange benefits, cooperate with each other, and everyone benefits.
But marriage?
What can Mi Junping bring him?
Nothing at all!
After marriage, it would merely mean some resources from the Mi family. But Luo Chen can already get those stuff now.
Like this precious Small Qi Gathering Array.
In comparison, the cost-effectiveness of marriage is too low.
It only benefits Mi Shuhua and the Mi Family. For Luo Chen, it’s quite unsatisfactory.
In the end, Sikong Shoujia returned without success.
After reporting back to Mi Shuhua, the latter just waved his hand casually, indicating he would no longer dwell on the matter.
It was just a casual try in the first place.
Even if Luo Chen refused, it would not hinder the relationship between them. As long as Jade Marrow Pills could be routinely refined, their relationship would be no different from that of families.
Can Luo Chen consistently refine Jade Marrow Pills?
That’s a stupid question!
A month later, inside the Pill Hall’s Pill cultivation room.
The “three bigwigs” are counting the number of elixirs with Mi Shuhua.
“Three hundred bottles of lower-grade Jade Marrow Pills.”
“One hundred bottles of medium-grade Jade Marrow Pills.”
After getting the quantity, Sikong Shoujia obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and Gu Caiyi was also very happy.
Compared to last month, there were twenty fewer bottles of Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills, but there wasn’t much of a decline.
The main reason was that Luo Chen had hidden in Inner City for some time and hadn’t come to the Pill Hall to refine pills.
Having gotten the numbers, Mi Shuhua nodded subconsciously.
“You did a great job!”
“Especially Luo Chen, your Alchemy skills have stabilized.”
Right now, Luo Chen was busily counting Spirit Stones on the side!
Mi Shuhua had just brought those over, which was his share of the profits from last month.
A total of 1,300 pieces, truly a large sum.
If it’s added to his existing savings, Luo Chen’s savings would once again be restored to 2,500.
Moreover, he’s yet to settle the earnings from Chen Yue Snacks and Honey Snow Ice City from last month.
Although it hasn’t been settled yet, he had control of the raw materials and sales data, so he knew how much he could earn.
If he settles it, his savings will break through 3,000 for the first time!
