"You have said this before. I have already given you another fifty thousand taels of silver. Last night you promised not to change your mind. But after this night you changed your mind again. Isn't your appearance too ugly?"
Nie Kexin could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. After arriving in Linyao City, she met the master her father had found for her.
Everything was fine at first, but he suddenly said that he wanted to add another fifty thousand taels of silver. She was already very annoyed, but it was not easy to find a master.
As long as I can guide her in alchemy and make her a first-level alchemist, it will be worth it.
So she gave another 50,000 taels, but she didn't expect that as the night passed, this man would ask for 100,000 taels again. This was simply an endless pit!
"Who are you saying looks ugly?" Master Zhao's expression changed, "Do you know how difficult it is to become an alchemist and how much effort it takes to train one?
I am willing to spend so much energy on a disciple like you who is not very talented, so shouldn’t you pay more tuition?”
The middle-aged man taking care of Nie Kexin couldn't help but said: "Master Zhao, the money we gave you is already quite a lot.
Our lady is the cousin of Gu Niansheng, who won the first place in the alchemist competition yesterday. If you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, just forget about the hundred thousand taels."
However, when Master Zhao heard this, he felt as if he had heard a big joke, and mocked: "How dare you say such shameless words?
That Miss Gu is the junior sister of Master Wangchen of the Holy Medicine Sect, how can she have such a cousin?"
"Why not?"
When Gu Niansheng arrived, he happened to hear the argument, and his face instantly turned cold.
When Master Zhao heard this, he thought that another person came to help Nie Kexin. He turned his head with disdain, "Don't dream..."
However, before he finished speaking, he noticed the woman in front of him.
Yesterday's alchemist competition, as an alchemist, he naturally would not miss it. He recognized the woman in front of him at a glance as Gu Niansheng, the winner, and the arrogant look on his face turned into astonishment.
Not only that, after he saw the awe-inspiring King Zhenbei next to the woman, his eyes widened, his expression full of horror.
King of Zhenbei!
Not only Gu Niansheng, but also the King of Zhenbei is here. What kind of battle is this?
"cousin!"
When Nie Ke saw Gu Niansheng coming, he felt as if he had found a backbone. The grievances in his heart could no longer be contained, and tears flowed down subconsciously.
She has never met such a shameless person, but the person who speaks out for her has extremely poor talent and wastes energy, which makes her feel even more aggrieved.
"I'm here." Gu Niansheng patted Nie Kexin on the back, "It's okay."
Seeing Gu Niansheng comforting Nie Kexin, Yu Xianchi also locked his eyes on Master Zhao, "You want one hundred thousand taels when you wake up?"
On the way here, the boy had told them the whole story. Master Zhao had obviously determined that Nie Kexin came here alone, with no strong people around to take care of him, and he wanted to become an alchemist.
So take it as you like.
"No, no." Zhao Qian knelt down with a bang, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, "King Zhenbei, I don't dare, I don't dare..."
Yu Xianchi's voice was cold and he said casually: "I think you are very brave."
