At this moment, two carriages had stopped outside the Commandery Princess mansion.

Soon Lin Sheng was called out by Princess Lingyu.

I saw A'Fu with a smile on his face, and ordered people to move things out of the car.

At the same time, he handed over the imperial edict in his hand to Princess Lingyu.

Then he bowed to Lin Sheng who had just walked out of the room, and then led them away.

Lin Sheng nodded towards the other party and his eyes fell on several jade boxes placed in the courtyard.

There are five jade boxes in total. They are called jade boxes but it is more appropriate to describe them as boxes.

Each one is half the size of a human, with exquisite patterns engraved on the outside. At first glance, they are not ordinary objects.

On the other side, Princess Lingyu couldn't help but be stunned after seeing the contents of the imperial edict.

After a while, inside the room.

"Imperial Uncle What happened to him? He directly named you the second grade General of the Cavalry, and you also command Crimson Feather Army!?"

Princess Lingyu frowned and kept circling around the room, his face full of confusion.

"Crimson Feather Army..."

Lin Sheng put down the imperial edict in his hand and chewed the unfamiliar word gently in his mouth.

He was also quite surprised by the operation of Emperor Jing.

Originally I just thought that I would confer an official position at will.

Unexpectedly, he was directly assigned the position of a second-grade general.

Although he didn't know much about Southern Qi's official system, the second-grade general position was already considered a high position.

You must know that among the Military Department, except for Tang Chong who has no temporary post, the highest one is Hu Yanji, a first-class general.

My second-grade General of the Cavalry is just a little lower than it.

There are only two second-grade general positions in the Military Department, and he directly became one of them.

As for the Crimson Feather Army, he didn't know much about it, but looking at Ling Yu's performance, it was obviously anything but ordinary.

Seemingly aware of the doubts in Lin Sheng's heart, Princess Lingyu promptly explained.

"Crimson Feather Army is an army that belongs to our royal family in addition to the Military Department. It is an elite army that the royal family has spent a lot of resources to cultivate over the years."

Hearing this Lin Sheng understood clearly.

Although most of Southern Qi's troops are affiliated with the Military Department, there are also exceptions. Obviously this Crimson Feather Army should be the royal family Imperial Guard.

Thinking of this, he felt a little more doubtful.

"Since Crimson Feather Army belongs to the royal family, it should be led by members of your royal family. How come it is directly led by me?"

"This... I don't know either."

Princess Lingyu frowned slightly. Although she was in Imperial Capital, she had always been obsessed with martial arts and focused most of her energy on practice. She didn't know much about the matters in Imperial Capital.

On the other hand, Granny Shi's eyes flashed slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"I'll just go to the palace and ask Imperial Uncle in the afternoon."

Princess Lingyu thought for a while before speaking.

"That's fine."

Lin Sheng nodded, no longer thinking about the Crimson Feather Army, and focused on several jade boxes in the room.

With a wave of his hand, several jade boxes were opened, and the strong smell of blood hit his nostrils.

Also emitted were extremely strong Vital Blood fluctuations.

The jade boxes are filled with Demon Beast internal organs, some are large and some are small. The big ones almost fill the entire jade box, while the small ones are only the size of a human head.

Although I haven't touched it yet, I can't tell what kind of Demon Beast these internal organs come from.

But just by relying on the strong Vital Blood fluctuations, Lin Sheng can be sure that these internal organs are definitely not from ordinary Demon Beast.

Princess Lingyu on the side was also a little surprised and couldn't help but speak.

"It turned out to be the top-grade Demon Beast Flesh sealed in the vault. I didn't expect Imperial Uncle to be so generous."

Her eyes fell on one of the jade boxes, which contained some purple-red heart fragments. It was also the one with the strongest Vital Blood fluctuations among the jade boxes.

"Is this Flesh from Earth Fiend Rock Dragon!?"

She has a strong dragon-like Bloodline on her body, so she can naturally feel the dragon-like Bloodline aura faintly, and she quickly recognized the source of the Flesh in the jade box.

This is also a rare dragon Demon Beast Flesh collected in Imperial Treasury.

"Earth Fiend Rock Dragon?"

Lin Sheng's eyes fell on the jade box, and there was also some surprise in his eyes.

Dragon-type Exotic Beast is basically a very powerful existence among Demon Beast.

This Earth Fiend Rock Dragon is obviously the best among Demon Beast. The dragon type Demon Beast is quite rare. I am afraid that the royal family does not have much stock. This Emperor Jing is actually willing to take it out. It is hard not to surprise people.

Lin Sheng's eyes fell on the two porcelain bottles the size of a baby's fist placed on the table.

This was delivered together with several jade boxes.

What is inside is obviously not Demon Beast Flesh, so what could it be?

These two porcelain vases are placed in exquisite brocade boxes. From the outside, you can tell that they are not ordinary objects.

Lin Sheng is also curious, what is in this porcelain bottle?

Without hesitation, he flicked his finger and the porcelain bottle opened.

The moment it was opened, a golden glow emanated from it.

Lin Sheng felt a sense of hunger and thirst immediately in his body.

It was as if the content in this bottle had an irresistible temptation, making him subconsciously want to incorporate it into his body.

But just for a moment, he suppressed this strange feeling.

There was a bit of surprise in his eyes when he looked at the porcelain bottle.

"Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid!!"

At this time, Granny Shi, who had been silent until now, made a surprised sound.

Princess Lingyu reacted at this moment and looked at the porcelain bottle on the table with a look of shock on his face.

"Two bottles of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid! Imperial Uncle He actually sent two bottles of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid!?"

"Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid?"

Lin Sheng chewed on the name. Judging from the reactions of the two people, the content in this porcelain bottle seemed to be quite extraordinary.

Princess Lingyu had calmed down by this time, and explained with a bit of surprise on his face.

"This Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is my Southern Qi Imperial Family's treasure. It is made from the blood essence of Heaven-Bestowed Spirit Spring and a Void Beast level Dragon Beast. The effect is much stronger than Heaven-Bestowed Spirit Spring, and it can increase the concentration of dragon Bloodline in the body."

"Oh!?"

Hearing this, Lin Sheng couldn't help but feel shocked. What shocked him was not this Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid, but the Void Beast level Dragon Beast. He couldn't help but ask.

"There is Dragon Beast of Void Beast level among the Southern Qi Imperial Family!?"

"Of course there is. More than a thousand years ago, the ancestors of the royal family found the remains of a Void Beast in a deserted place, and then brought it into the Imperial Capital. They used its bones to refine Imperial City Grand Array, and its Flesh to refine the elixir. This Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is made of its blood essence."

The person who spoke was Granny Shi. As a master of Grandmaster, she knew many secrets of the royal family much better than Ling Yu.

There was a bit of pride on her face, but soon she sighed again, and looked at Lin Sheng with a slightly strange look.

"It's just that after so many years, the Dragon Beast remains have been basically exhausted. The Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid that can be produced is getting less and less. It is estimated that it will be completely exhausted in a few decades."

Having said this, her eyes fell on Lin Sheng and she spoke slowly.

"So the value of this Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is extremely precious. Even members of the royal family may not be able to use a bottle in their lifetime."

Next, Granny Shi did not continue.

With her vision, she could tell at a glance that the Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid in the porcelain bottle was still among the best.

Even she was quite surprised by Emperor Jing's arrangement.

After listening to what Granny Shi said, Lin Sheng also understood the value of the two porcelain bottles in his hands.

I'm afraid the value of this bottle of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is higher than these Demon Beast Flesh.

Princess Lingyu At this moment, the look of surprise on his face became even more intense.

"Originally, I was thinking of asking Imperial Uncle for a bottle of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid after we got married. Unexpectedly, Imperial Uncle actually sent two bottles to you directly. It seems that Imperial Uncle values you very much."

At this point, she said impatiently.

"After Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is opened, the effect will soon begin to decay. Just now you have opened a bottle of Lin Sheng. Take it and refine it as soon as possible to avoid affecting the effect."

"Okay."

Lin Sheng nodded immediately.

Since he already knew that there was good stuff in the porcelain bottle, he naturally would not waste it.

"Lin Sheng You should concentrate on refining it first. Don't take it multiple times during refining. Okay, we won't disturb you for now."

Princess Lingyu warned and planned to leave with Granny Shi.

"Commandery Princess, you go to the palace to thank me first. I am here to protect Young Master Lin."

Granny Shi suddenly spoke.

Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, but quickly nodded.

"That's fine, Granny Shi, you are thoughtful."

Although the palace is heavily guarded, refining Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid is still a bit dangerous, and there are people protecting it to avoid being disturbed blindly.

After saying that, Ling Yu turned and left.

There were only two people left in the room, Lin Sheng and Granny Shi.

"Senior Granny Shi, what do you have to say but it's okay to say it?"

At this time Lin Sheng just said calmly.

He knew very well that the other party's stay was definitely not as simple as protecting the law.

"Young Master Lin is indeed a smart man."

Granny Shi had a smile on his face.

"Ling Yu doesn't know much about the affairs of the court, so she doesn't know much about the Crimson Feather Army, so I'd better help Young Master Lin clear up her doubts."

"Although Crimson Feather Army belongs to the royal family, due to the royal family's own reasons decades ago, the position of commander Crimson Feather Army was temporarily replaced by the current Privy Councilor Gongsun Yue."

"Gongsun family has been an official for generations and is quite powerful in the court. After decades, Gongsun family has gained deep control over Crimson Feather Army."

"His Majesty obviously has a deep meaning in handing over the leadership of the Crimson Feather Army to you."

Lin Sheng After listening to what Granny Shi said quietly, he completely understood in his heart.

No wonder he would directly grant himself the position of second-grade general.

"I have told you what I know. If Young Master Lin still has any questions, I guess there will be arrangements from His Majesty? This way I won't disturb the young master's practice."

"Thank you, senior, for clarifying my doubts."

Lin Sheng bowed his hand.

Granny Shi waved his hand and disappeared into the room.

Feeling its aura disappearing, Lin Sheng tapped his fingers on the desk.

He glanced at the two porcelain bottles on the table, shook his head and smiled.

"No wonder I was given two bottles of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid, and this top-grade Demon Beast Flesh..."

Obviously this Emperor Jing His Majesty wants to borrow his own hand to take back this Crimson Feather Army.

I don't have the slightest interest in marching to fight.

But this His Majesty's sincerity is quite deep.

Shaking his head and smiling, Lin Sheng grabbed a porcelain bottle on the table, took out a few drops of golden slime and poured it into his mouth.

Then he closed his eyes and condensed into Spirit Refinement.

As the golden mucus entered, Lin Sheng felt that Vital Blood's body instantly boiled.

The meridians, body, and muscles are like evil ghosts, frantically competing for the golden mucus in the body.

In addition to the physical body, there is also a strong reaction that occurs together with the spirit.

Lin Sheng only felt a scorching flame wrapping his consciousness, burning continuously.

Waves of burning pain continued to pour out of his consciousness.

Lin Sheng's expression remained unchanged. This level of pain had no impact on him at all.

"Sure enough, it can also have a boosting effect on the spirit."

Feeling that his own consciousness had a tendency to become more solid under the burning of this invisible flame, Lin Sheng secretly said that it was true.

After all, it was a precious medicine prepared from the essence and blood of Void Beast and Heaven-Bestowed Spirit Spring. He didn't believe it if it said it had no effect on the spirit.

"The mental effect seems to be much better than I imagined."

As the invisible flame burned, Lin Sheng felt as if traces of impurities were being peeled off from his consciousness.

It's extremely slow, but it's happening.

His eyes lit up, and he immediately poured all the golden slime left in the bottle into his mouth.

As a large amount of Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid poured into the body, the restless feeling immediately increased several times.

The invisible flames in his consciousness also solidified at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the severe pain that hit his consciousness surged up like a tidal wave.

Even Lin Sheng couldn't help but frown slightly.

Taking a deep breath, he moved forward instead of retreating, forcibly mobilizing his consciousness and spirit to rush towards those invisible flames.

As the pain intensified, my consciousness continued to clear.

Soon after half an hour passed, the restlessness in the body showed signs of weakening.

The severe mental pain also began to subside.

Lin Sheng There were beads of sweat the size of soybeans on his forehead.

Although he has been suffering from both physical and mental pain.

But at this moment, not only was his spirit not sluggish at all, but he was much clearer than before.

Faintly, Lin Sheng felt that his consciousness was about to break some kind of shackles.

Without hesitation, he opened the other porcelain bottle and swallowed all the Dragon Saliva Golden Liquid inside.

Soon, the familiar sharp pain swept through his body again.

This time, it wasn't until an hour later that the pain showed signs of weakening.

Lin Sheng's clothes were already wet with sweat.

A trace of golden lines appeared on the exposed skin.

Especially on the sides of the cheeks and between the eyebrows, the golden lines shine brightly.

Another incense time passed, and Lin Sheng's eyes suddenly opened.

The golden glow on the body's surface flourished, but it all disappeared in the next moment.

"Huh... the refining is finally completed."

He exhaled heavily and showed a look of relaxation.

Immediately call up Attribute Panel.

He can feel that he has improved a lot this time, and the specific details will depend on the changes on the panel.

[Lin Sheng]

[Realm: Bone Tempering]

[Strength: 23] [Constitution: 23] [Agility: 20] [Perception: 14] [Spirit: 7]

[Talent: Dragon Elephant Power]

[Talent: Sea Sacrifice Demonic Blood]

"Agility and perception are each improved by one point. The biggest improvement is spirit, which is directly improved by two points."

Seeing the changes on the panel, a smile appeared on Lin Sheng's face.

That's not all. Although there are no numerical changes in strength and physique, they have also improved, but the improvement has not reached the next point.

But he could feel that the 24-point checkpoint was not far away.

"As expected, it is made from the essence and blood of Void Beast. The effect is really unexpected..."
