1177 Critical Hit
“Ahem… Well, we met the members of the Long family in the sea today. We really didn’t mean to make Senior Tian take the rap for us. The members of the Long family were the ones who misunderstood,” Lu Zijia explained a bit awkwardly.
In fact, it wasn’t even a coincidental meeting; Long Yuanzhi specially brought people here to cause trouble.
Tian Hongcheng didn’t mind taking the blame for no reason at all. After all, if it weren’t for him and his son, Lu Zijia and her man wouldn’t have been implicated.
So, he quickly said, “Alchemist Lu, you don’t have to worry about it. Besides, the entire incident started because of us. We should be the ones apologizing to Alchemist Lu and Senior Mu.”
After saying that, Tian Hongcheng really cupped his fists at the two of them to express his apology.
Hearing what Tian Hongcheng called her, Lu Zijia couldn’t help raising her eyebrows. Senior? This seniority jump was a bit too much!
Zuo Wei, who was at the side, also hurriedly cupped his fists at the two of them. “I didn’t know you were seniors before. Please forgive me if I offended you.”
Thinking of how he called them young friends before, and the scene where Mu Tianyan seriously injured the patriarch of the Long family with one strike, Zuo Wei felt a chill run down his spine.
Who would have thought that such shocking peerless geniuses would be born today? There were even two of them as soon as they appeared. It was simply too much of a blow!
Fortunately, his Taoist heart was stable enough, or he would definitely be affected by their outstanding performance.
Lu Zijia waved her hand indifferently. “It’s fine. We’re younger than you, seniors, to begin with. It’s just a form of address, you don’t have to think too much about it.”
Zuo Wei and Tian Hongcheng: “…” Why did they feel like they had been dealt a critical blow?’
The two of them were almost half their age, but their cultivation level was higher than theirs. It was simply a critical hit, right?
Even though Lu Zijia didn’t care about how she addressed them, Zuo Wei and Tian Hongcheng couldn’t possibly treat the two of them as juniors anymore, so they called them fellow Taoists.
The crowd watching the show outside hadn’t dispersed yet, so it wasn’t convenient for them to talk, so the few of them returned to the backyard of the auction house.
“Alchemist Lu, do you still have any pills left?” Zuo Wei asked Lu Zijia a bit embarrassedly.
Lu Zijia was surprised. “The pills were sold out so quickly?”
She had sold dozens of pills to Zuo Wei before, but they were all sold out in just two days. Wasn’t this too fast?
One had to know that pills weren’t cheap.
Zuo Weiwei sighed slightly. “The batch of pills sold by Alchemist Lu before was originally enough for the auction house to last for more than a week. However, the Octagon Auction House in the other city was also deliberately suppressed by the Yu family. When they found out that I had a batch of pills here, they came to ask for help. I gave them half of whatever we had.”
If someone else came to ask for help, he wouldn’t split it. After all, his situation here wasn’t much better.
However, the other party was an old friend he was usually on good terms with, so he couldn’t reject him.
Hearing that, Lu Zijia nodded. “I’ll refine a few more furnaces of pills these few days. Just prepare the herbs.”
“Thank you, Alchemist Lu.” Zuo Wei was overjoyed and bowed to Lu Zijia gratefully.
“Right, Fellow Taoist Zuo, do you have green jade here? It’s best if it’s green jade that’s more than ten years old.” Lu Zijia suddenly thought of something and asked Zuo Wei.
Even though she had just obtained more than ten pieces of green jade from the Yan family, it was still too little.
Zuo Wei shook his head, but he said, “If Alchemist Lu needs it, I can arrange for someone to buy it.”
Lu Zijia didn’t refuse this either. After all, there was strength in numbers. It would probably be very difficult for her and her man to find it.
