Chapter 2961: Opportunity
After she took a bath, Feng Jiu who had changed into clean red clothes, and Xuanyuan Mo Ze sat on the throne together, while the four members of the Shao Family, Old Jiang and Qiu Cheng Hai sat down below on the left and right side.
The four members of the Shao Family didn’t dare to relax even though they were sitting in the main hall. Instead, their bodies were tense nervously and they sat upright.
As for Old Jiang, he raised his sleeves from time to time to wipe the sweat oozing from his forehead because of his nervousness. In comparison to the Shao Family member’s nervousness, his nervousness was filled with worry because it had to do with whether he would survive or not.
Qiu Cheng Hai was the most indifferent one of them all. He sat there idly and sometimes took a sip of tea from his teacup, sometimes he played with his teacup, and he also sized up the Shao Family who sat across from him.
He had heard them call those two people on the throne Grandmaster earlier. Grandmaster? Those two people and the Shao Family? He lowered his eyes and spun the teacup in his hand while he sat quietly and listened.
After Feng Jiu took a sip of her tea, she glanced at Old Jiang and said: “You want the Breakthrough Pill?”
Upon hearing this, Old Jiang was stunned for a moment, and Qiu Cheng Hai also looked up instinctively. The Shao Family who were sitting opposite them also looked at Old Jiang in amazement. Breakthrough Pill? So the old man had come forward to help with an ulterior motive.
“No, it’s not like that.”
Old Jiang said hurriedly: “I do indeed want the Breakthrough Pill, but I didn’t think of using this opportunity to help you and ask for the pill. It’s because I can’t even get a chance to see Young Miss, so I thought of using this opportunity to see Young Miss again so that I can ask for a pill in person.”
He spoke again: “I have an old injury and my strength is regressing. Now that my longevity is coming to an end, I know that I cannot avoid this catastrophe. I will be dead in a year’s time, that’s why I am asking for help.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled: “I think this is the truth.”
“I won’t dare to deceive Young Miss.” Old Jiang said quickly.
“It’s not only you who wants the Breakthrough Pill, so tell me, why should I give you the Breakthrough Pill? Is it because you came forward to help today?” Feng Jiu asked as she stared at him.
“No.”
Old Jiang stood up and said solemnly: “I just want to see Young Miss so that Young Miss knows I have come sincerely to ask for the Breakthrough Pill, and I will agree to any conditions Young Miss gives me and I will try my best to fulfil them.”
Feng Jiu leaned back when she heard this, she looked at him, then called out: “Leng Hua.”
Leng Hua stepped forward and retrieved a list from his sleeve. After he handed it to Old Jiang, he stepped back.
“If you find all the items on the list within the next year, you can use them to exchange for a sixth order Breakthrough Pill.” Feng Jiu said unhurriedly as she drank her tea.
Old Jiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and lowered his head hurriedly to look at the list. However, upon looking at the list, he smiled bitterly. The items on the list weren’t ordinary! They were not going to be easy to find.
Qiu Cheng Hai who was next to him took a look and said to Old Jiang: “This is still a chance, don’t worry! I’ll help you to find them.”
“The two of you may be excused. I still have other matters to deal with here.”
Feng Jiu spoke warmly without looking at them. Those two people had seized the opportunity to help them, although it couldn’t be said that they were completely free from scheming, they did take the risk. It was impossible for her to give them a pill for nothing, so instead, she gave them a chance to exchange the pill.
