Chapter 126 One Month Later (1/2)

A month later, in the inner court of Jin Mansion, the warehouse attached to the Jin Family Alchemy Pavilion - the medicine warehouse.

Li Yan's clone Jin Yan led several managers to inspect the entire medicine warehouse.

The function of the medicine warehouse is to process and classify the medicine, and then carefully store it in the warehouse, waiting for the alchemists and pharmacists of the Alchemy Pavilion to use it.

Most of the people who process medicine in the medicine warehouse are pharmacists. Every year, the Jin family will select a few of the best performing apprentices from these pharmacists and promote them to the Jin Family Alchemy Pavilion to learn medicine.

At the same time, some poorly performing apprentices will be eliminated.

If you have been here for three years and have not been selected to the Jin Family Alchemy Pavilion, it can only mean that you have no talent and will also be eliminated.

Therefore, although there are only more than 20 people in the entire medicine warehouse, it is very popular.

When Li Yan passed by the place where the pharmacists were processing medicine, they stopped their work and greeted Li Yan warmly and flatteringly.

"Hello, Young Master Yan."

"Hello, Young Master Yan, you are here to inspect the warehouse again. You have worked so hard."

"Hello, Young Master Yan, are you free tonight? I am not very familiar with some medicinal materials. Would you like to come to my room tonight to give me some guidance?"

It was a beautiful woman with a plump figure and a hint of foxy charm on her face.

For some reason, such a beautiful woman did not become a maid, but became an apprentice in alchemy.

"Then the little beauty must wash herself clean tonight, and wait for me to come to your house to personally guide you."

Faced with such temptation, Li Yan never refused, but took the initiative to accept it.

He even went forward and chatted with this woman for a few words. It was inevitable that he would do something during the period.

When Li Yan left, others looked at this woman with different eyes.

Women are jealous, men despise, and of course everyone's eyes contain a hint of envy.

You must know that their assessment results are all scored by the head of the medicinal materials warehouse, and the current head of the warehouse is Li Yan.

Whoever can get Li Yan's approval is basically determined.

This is also the reason why everyone is so enthusiastic and even a little flattering to Li Yan.

"You guys, go check the storage of medicinal materials in these warehouses, carefully. If the pharmacists and alchemists in the Alchemy Pavilion use unqualified medicinal materials, I will hold you accountable."

Li Yan commanded.

"Yes, Young Master Yan, we promise to check carefully and will not miss any abnormalities."

The three stewards behind Li Yan responded quickly, and then began to check the medicinal materials in the warehouse.

Li Yan looked at the diligence of these people and couldn't help but think of his time in the outer mansion of the Jin Mansion.

At that time, he was still a servant, and the steward above him was Hao Huo. His daily job was to check the warehouse in the firewood room.

"It seems that there is no difference from me now."

He is also working in the warehouse now, but his identity has changed dramatically, from an executor to a superior.

Moreover, the work in the firewood room is assigned, while the master of the medicinal material warehouse is required by him.

A month ago, the [Evil Tomb Mountain] incident exchanged for the Condensation Realm technique at the cost of the death of nearly two thousand servants, stewards, and guards.

As the discoverer of the technique, Li Yan ranked third in this incident.

The first is naturally Jin Huolin, the second is Jin Fenglei, and the fourth is Jin Fengguang.

Although the third is already very good, didn’t you see that the innate elder Jin Fengguang was ranked behind him?

However, both Jin Huolin and Jin Fenglei felt that they owed Li Yan something.

Jin Huolin believed that if it weren’t for Li Yan, they would probably have missed this Condensation Realm technique, and if so, he would not only not get the credit, but would become the biggest sinner in this incident.

So too, he thought that the first credit should be Li Yan.

However, in order to stabilize his position as the young clan leader, both the clan leader and the clan finally decided to put the greatest credit on his head.

This naturally made him feel guilty towards Li Yan.

So, after rewarding the merits, Jin Huolin found Li Yan and asked him if he wanted to be the head of the inner court.

Obviously, this was Jin Huolin's compensation to Li Yan.

When Li Yan heard this, he was so happy that he immediately expressed his desire to be the head of the Alchemy Pavilion.

This request directly stumped Jin Huolin. The head of the Alchemy Pavilion is now concurrently held by a congenital alchemist of the Jin family. He is not the patriarch yet, so how can he deprive a congenital alchemist of his position?

Seeing that the other party was in a dilemma, Li Yan quickly retreated and stated his real goal.

Lu Xun once said that in order to open a window, sometimes you have to advocate tearing down the roof.

Li Yan finally achieved his goal easily.

He became the head of the medicinal materials warehouse.

This is one of the main purposes of Li Yan's plan of taking advantage of others, and he himself did not expect that it would be achieved so easily.

Because the head of the medicinal materials warehouse has the responsibility of purchasing and selling medicinal materials.

After he took this position, he could naturally send some restricted medicinal materials to the main body under various names, so as to facilitate the main body to refine higher-level elixirs.

The reason why Jin Fenglei felt indebted to Li Yan was because he said that Li Yan would be the biggest contributor to this incident, but he made a slip of the tongue in the end.

If it was an outsider, he would have made a slip of the tongue and would not have taken it to heart.

But for his own people, he had a different mentality.

So, in order to compensate Li Yan, Jin Fenglei used his family contribution points to exchange a set of top-level martial arts for Li Yan.

Li Yan did not refuse and chose a set of top-level body skills - [Golden Light Dragon Step].

Combined with the top-level swordsmanship he had obtained before, he attacked and advanced, and his combat power increased greatly.

That is to say, he got it a little late, otherwise if he had obtained these two top-level martial arts earlier and let him practice to the great success realm, he would have destroyed the Zhao family by now.

"But it's almost there, the Yunzang realm is about to arrive."

The main body felt the surging blood in the body, and a strong feeling came from the limbs and bones.

At this time, he had completed nine blood transfusions, and the blood was already red and purple, which was caused by the excessive energy contained in the blood.

Now the purple blood in Li Yan's body is as heavy as lead and mercury. Under the nourishment of such blood, his body is also growing continuously.

The membrane, flesh, blood, and bones have been greatly strengthened and enhanced.

Li Yan tried, and even with the strength of a warrior in the Flesh Refining Realm, combined with an ordinary long sword, he couldn't break through his body's defense.

Of course, a strong body also has disadvantages, that is, the further increase in weight and the increased demand for food.

When Li Yan just broke through to the Blood Exchange Realm, the weight of his body had reached 300 kilograms, and now it has broken through to 400 kilograms.

It must be the peak of the Organ Condensation Realm, and the body must weigh half a ton.

"Three days later, I will prepare to break through the Organ Condensation Realm."

Li Yan's body, lying in a recliner under a big tree in the yard, thought leisurely.

Originally, according to the progress, he wanted to break through, at least ten or twenty days.

And this is when he used up all the resources.

However, Li Yan saw something in the Jin family's treasure house, which directly brought his breakthrough time forward by nearly half a month.

[Pulse Protection Pill·Fan], a very strange pill.

Although it is not a spiritual pill, the difficulty of refining is not inferior to that of a spiritual pill. Only a formal alchemist can successfully refine it.

And its effect is to protect the blood vessels in the human body when practicing the technique.

In the blood exchange realm, the first thing the new blood contacts is the blood vessels, so the first thing to be strengthened is the blood vessels.

Therefore, in order to prevent the energy contained in the blood from being enhanced too much at one time and causing the blood vessels to burst, Li Yan needs to strengthen the blood a little bit every time he exchanges blood.

This leads to the fact that he has a lot of resources in his hands, but he can only use them carefully, so the speed is naturally not fast.

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-feed', placement: 'Below Article Feed', target_type: 'mix' });

But when he has [Humai Dan Fan], it is different. He can replace the new blood that takes many days to replace within one day.

Then, the newly replaced blood will be actively strengthened under the protection of the [Veins Protection Pill·Fan].

Until the blood vessels are strengthened to the extent that they can carry the new blood.

After changing the position, the time required is greatly reduced.

However, in order to exchange for enough [Veins Protection Pill·Fan], Li Yan has used up almost all of his family contribution points.

After all, this thing is not cheap, and one pill can only last for three hours.

In order to complete the blood transfusion as soon as possible, Li Yan ate it continuously for more than 20 days.

For Li Yan, whether it is silver or family contribution points, they are used. He will never be stingy if he can exchange for something useful to him.

This world is too dangerous. Without destroying the foundation, Li Yan's pursuit is always to become stronger quickly.

"Jin Yan, you are really here, come on, come with me."

Suddenly, a man came hurriedly, grabbed Li Yan's hand, and was about to pull him away.

"What's the matter? Why are you trying to take me away in such a hurry?"

Li Yan's feet sank, and his blood and qi fell. No matter how the man pulled, he didn't move at all.

The man found that he couldn't pull Li Yan, and while he was surprised, he had to tell the purpose of looking for Li Yan.

"You kid, you have been practicing again recently, right? You even forgot about the wonderful thing of selecting maids."

"Maid selection?"

Li Yan was puzzled at first, and then he reacted immediately.

A month ago, many maids in the inner palace were transferred to serve the young masters and masters like Li Yan, and later they all died.

This naturally caused vacancies in the maids in the inner palace.

So, some of the most outstanding virgins were transferred from the outer palace to the inner palace to fill the vacancies.

The young masters and masters of the Jin family would not be willing to be buried with others.

Another part chose to recruit maids from outside.

Those with good quality directly entered the inner palace to fill the remaining vacancies, and those with slightly poor quality were naturally left to the outer palace as maids.

"Oh, I really became stupid from practicing, I forgot such a big thing."

Li Yan slapped his head and said in annoyance.

After this action, the person who came to call Li Yan showed an expression of expectedness.

"I was at the scene and couldn't find you after searching for you. I knew that you were obsessed with martial arts again, so I came to find you."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go quickly. If you go too late, all the good stuff will be picked up. You know, I've been holding it in for a month."

At this moment, Li Yan was more anxious than the other party.

"You guys check carefully. If I see you slacking off when I come back, I'll see how I deal with you."

Before leaving, Li Yan did not forget to order the three stewards.

Without waiting for the three people to reply, Li Yan took the other person and flew away.

The three stewards were left, looking at each other in bewilderment.

When Li Yan arrived at the scene of the maid selection, his eyes were straight.

Hundreds of beautiful women showed their talents or beauty for people to watch.

The people who watched were naturally the children of the Jin family like Li Yan.

As long as they took a fancy to that woman, that woman would directly become a maid in the inner court.

Finally, the remaining ones who have not been chosen will go to the outer palace.

They are all maids. The maids in the inner palace are comparable to the stewards in the outer palace in terms of status.

Because most of the maids in the inner palace have masters. The mistresses are okay, but the male masters are basically favored.

Which servant in the outer palace dares to disrespect the women of the master and the young master.

"It's a pity that it's winter now. If it were summer, these little sluts would wear cool clothes."

"Now they are wrapped up more tightly, and there is less fun."

The person who came with Li Yan commented like this.

"Really? I feel that each has its own merits."

Li Yan looked at the women who were selected by the children of the Jin family with happy smiles on their faces and said so.

"I forgot that you have a taste. The more tightly wrapped, the more it shows its capital."

Hearing this, Li Yan showed a look of you still understand me.

Then, the two stopped chatting and started to choose their favorite ones.

Suddenly, there was a commotion somewhere. A maid who was waiting to be selected was shot dead on the spot by a disciple of the Jin family.

It was a young and beautiful face, lying in a pool of blood.

Li Yan took a look and found that she was indeed good-looking, even prettier than the school beauties on Blue Star. Most importantly, she was all natural.

If she were on Blue Star, she would be sought after by thousands of people, but here, she was just a wild flower on the roadside.

A slight fold would end her short flowering period.

The body was taken away by the guards, and at the same time, the news about why the woman was shot dead also spread.

It turned out that the woman's sister was also a maid in the inner palace before, and then followed to [Shamu Mountain] and died.

She didn't believe the explanation given by the Jin Mansion, so she wanted to enter the Jin Mansion and personally investigate the truth of the matter.

This time, by chance, she was selected by her sister's former master.

Her sister told her the name of the master she served, and this time she heard it again, it was already her master.

The woman's sensibility made her think that this was fate's arrangement, and her young master must know the truth about her sister's death.

So, she asked the question that had troubled her for a long time.

Then, the young master that fate arranged for her cut off her way to find the answer.

What the woman didn't know was that the Jin Mansion had ordered that no one in the mansion should mention the matter of [Shamu Mountain].

Those who violated the order would be killed.

The death of nearly two thousand people in the [Shamu Mountain] matter, not two, twenty, or two hundred people, requires a reasonable explanation.

The explanation given by the Jin Mansion was that the camp accidentally caught fire, causing a fire to burn the mountain, and most people died.

And [Shamu Mountain] did have a particularly large fire, which almost burned the entire mountain range.

Even Linjiang City, a hundred miles away, could see it.

This naturally made most of the people in Linjiang City believe what the Jin Mansion said.

They live in the information cocoon woven for them by the Jin Mansion, and what the Jin Mansion says is always the most authoritative.

In addition, every servant who died in the Jin Mansion was given a pension later, which made this bloodbath with nearly 2,000 deaths gradually calm down within a month.

Perhaps more than a decade later, no one will remember this incident.

Li Yan finally did not choose any maid. The reason he gave was that he was in a bad mood because of what happened just now.

This reason is very sufficient. After all, he was an eyewitness of the [Shamu Mountain] incident. It is inevitable that he will be in a bad mood when he hears about [Shamu Mountain] again.

On the way back to the medicine warehouse, Li Yan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and then continued to move forward.

"Are we finally going to start refining the elixir?"

"My genius side can no longer be concealed."

Li Yan's mouth curled up slightly.
