Douluo Continent: Flame of Nothingness

Chapter 309 Departing from the Holy City
"I wonder if Alchemist Long can refuse the Xia family's entrustment?"

Shi Dingtian said suddenly, Long Zhiming came back to his senses and smiled:
"Patriarch Shi, I'm entrusted by others, and I can't let my reputation be tainted by the matter of loyalty, right?"

"Then pretend I never said that."

Shi Dingtian said without changing his face, Long Zhiming didn't change his expression when he picked up the wine glass, but he was still muttering in his heart, what does Shi Dingtian mean?This trip is neither Hongmen Banquet nor Sex Enticement, why should he come?It's also impossible that Shi Bei'er really wanted to see him and let him come over, right?

If Shi Dingtian thought that Shi Bei'er could charm him, wouldn't it be too naive?According to Shi Dingtian's information, he should know that his three wives are not inferior to Shi Bei'er.

The weird atmosphere lasted until the end of the banquet. Shi Feng didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, he was eating and drinking all the time, and Shi Bei'er only added a sentence from time to time. On the contrary, Shi Dingtian was greeting Long Zhiming most of the time. And apart from the sentence that made him resign from the Xia family's mission, there was not a single word about the Xia family.

When Long Zhiming went back, he obviously found that the atmosphere was not right. The Xia family looked at him with vigilance. Long Zhiming frowned and ignored these people and returned to the room. Looking at the direction Long Zhiming left.

"Father's move is really good."

Shi Bei'er said with a smile, Shi Feng nodded and said:

"Father deliberately didn't mention the Xia family's affairs, and kept Long Zhiming for such a long time to get together and get together, so he couldn't help the Xia family not to be puzzled, and there were only four of us for this meal, it was impossible to leak the news, this Long Zhiming is sure It's a corner."

"Wait, I'm familiar with the old man Xia Wanjin, hehe they also want to hold Long Zhiming firmly in their hands, but just wait and see, I will make Xia's family forever."

After Shi Dingtian finished speaking and left, Shi Feng glanced at Shi Bei'er and said:
"I didn't expect you to have such a blessing to marry such a person."

"I don't want to hear such words in the future. I make decisions about my marriage by myself."

Shi Bei'er rolled his eyes at Shi Feng coldly and said, Shi Feng left without even being annoyed with a smile, Shi Bei'er frowned, Shi Dingtian had already made it clear to her that he would arrest her at all costs Live the life of the dragon, otherwise she will lose everything she has now.

And Long Zhiming was approached by Xia Wanjin early the next morning. After Long Zhiming invited Xia Wanjin into his room, Xia Wanjin stretched out his hand and made a sound-proof barrier, then sat down solemnly and asked road:

"I want to know what Alchemist Long said when he went to Shi's house yesterday."

"I have said a lot, but there is only one thing about the Xia family, that is, he asked me to reject your Xia family's entrustment."

"What about Alchemist Long's answer?"

Xia Wanjin looked at Long Zhiming, Long Zhiming nodded and said:

"I know what you are worried about, but what I value more is my reputation. I can't agree to Shi Dingtian. Once I poison you, I will become a poison alchemist. Naturally, I can't live."

Xia Wanjin hesitated, Long Zhiming got up and said:
"If you believe me, you have to believe it, and if you don't believe it, I have to believe it, unless you can find a second person to save your life. If you can find me, turn around and leave. I only accepted the commission to avoid the pursuit of the Bai Nie family. , Now that I let you spend ten years without any worries, it can be regarded as repaying your help for giving me the opportunity to go to the Alchemy Association."

"Then I will trust Alchemist Long for now, I hope you can understand."

Xia Wanjin sighed and said, Long Zhiming nodded and said:

"In two days, I will go to the holy city with Shi Bei'er, and then you will speed up the collection of medicinal materials, and I can start refining them as soon as I come back."

"what!"

As soon as Long Zhiming finished speaking, Xia Wanjin exclaimed in disbelief, Xia Wanjin said with an ugly face:
"If Alchemist Long wants to go to the holy city, someone from my Xia family can take you there. There is no need to find Shi Bei'er from the Shi family, right?"

"First, I am free to go to whoever I want. I also want to tell you, Senior Xia, that my position is neutral. Since you choose to believe in my prescription, you must trust me unconditionally. Also, I accept the entrustment. It's one thing and it's one thing who I want to be in contact with, please don't get me wrong."

Xia Wanjin left very unhappy, Long Zhiming looked in the direction of the Shi family and shook his head helplessly, it was such an obvious situation, the Xia family was just playing tricks like this, to be honest, because Shi Lin assassinated him, he was very angry with the Shi family. I don't like it, especially the Shi family still supports the Nie family, but it has nothing to do with him. He will not stay in one place for too long. The grievances here have nothing to do with him. He went to the holy city to find the whereabouts of the third generation He will come back to help Xia Wanjin treat his illness.

Seven days later, Long Zhiming and Shi Bei'er set off for the Holy City together. This time, they were on the Shi family's space warship, which was smaller than the Bai family's but more luxurious. Long Zhiming stood on the deck and sighed:

"The person who made it must be extraordinary?"

"Naturally, this battleship was built by an elder of the Holy City when I was studying in the Holy City. I heard that Alchemy Long and Elder Wu Zun's granddaughter Sheng Bailian are friends?"

Shi Bei'er walked over and said with a smile, Long Zhiming nodded and said:
"Sheng Bailian and I are friends, and I don't know how she is now."

"When I was in the Holy City, I heard that the granddaughter of Elder Wu Zun, who had been missing for many years, had returned. Elder Wu Zun seemed to be helping her to heal her injuries. It seems that she has not left the customs until now."

"Really? That's fine."

Long Zhiming chuckled, this time Sheng Bailian should be able to recover to its previous peak, Long Zhiming looked at Shi Beier and said:

"You are also very good, you can actually reach the seventh-grade refiner."

"In any case, compared to Alchemist Long, I'm simply an idiot."

"Don't say that, I'm lucky too."

Long Zhiming said in embarrassment, what he said was the truth, Shi Bei'er can have the same cultivation level as him at this age and even reach the seventh-grade refining master, it is indeed very powerful, although Long Zhiming is indeed younger than Shi Bei'er by at least a year wheel age.

"Speaking of Miss Shi, is there any story in the holy city about a very powerful craftsman who died young?"

Long Zhiming suddenly asked, Shi Beier frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head, Long Zhiming was a little disappointed, but suddenly Shi Beier said:

"There is a rumor, but I don't know if it is true."

"What rumor?"

Long Zhiming hurriedly asked, Shi Beier closed his eyes and thought for a while and said:

"It is said that there was a ninth-grade craftsman whose cultivation base reached the mid-stage quasi-sage, and then died for some unknown reason, and no one avenged him after death, as if he died naturally, but this kind of thing is generally impossible Yes, even a ninth-grade craftsman in the Violent Corpse Wilderness can be investigated in detail for the cause of death, so we generally treat this kind of thing as a joke."
