Prince's Envoy Arrives, Effect of the Second Ingestion of Heart Blood!
With the Spirit Hall chief deacon personally running errands to handle it, Shrek Academy received the formal academy certification early the next morning. One had to admit that this administrative efficiency was truly high.
After all, this was also built on top of financial interests.
If one had no money, others wouldn't even give them the time of day.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Odin left.
Now that Shrek Academy has formal procedural documentation, that scum from Bala Academy won't be able to say anything, and I must also contend for this installment of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament.
With Xiao Fei holding down the fort, perhaps we can achieve a rather good result.
Watching Odin's receding figure, Flender muttered inwardly as he held the Shrek Academy certificate documents.
Turning and entering the academy, when he informed the others of this news, everyone was very happy.
After striving for so long, the formal procedures had finally been completed.
When the time came, they would also be able to vent a bad breath.
So they decided to properly set up a table to celebrate.
Only after finishing this meal did Flender plan to head to Heaven Dou City.
While they were preparing the food, a carriage entered Suotuo City, heading straight for the Li Family estate.
Merely the Li Family, just a minor family in a single city of my Balak Kingdom, yet they actually require me to personally run over here from far away. A moment later, I'll definitely make them look good.
Inside the carriage, a man coldly snorted and murmured contemptuously.
This person was none other than the prince's envoy who had received orders from Bala Prince to come and negotiate "business" with the Li Family!
He was servile and timid in front of Bala Prince, but outside, he always turned his nose up to the heavens and never looked people in the eye.
In his understanding, even if the Li Family had a Soul Emperor and made some money, in front of a national royal power, they could only obediently and honestly lower their heads to live as humans.
These people should even be lifting him, this prince's envoy, up to the heavens; otherwise, once he went back and casually made some petty reports to the prince's side, this Li Family's good days would come to an end.
Rolling his eyes slightly, he had the carriage stopped. He did not plan to head directly to the Li Family, instead having the coachman head to an inn. Having traveled for a day, he was hungry.
At the inn, he ordered dishes and savored them in detail.
Suddenly, a noisy sound appeared not far away, and he had his servant go and inquire about what was happening.
Before long, the servant hurriedly ran back.
"Reporting to the envoy, those people are all discussing the Li Family," the servant said.
"What is there to discuss about the Li Family?" the prince's envoy said indifferently.
"The Li Family's old family head has broken through to become a Soul Saint." The servant's words made the prince's envoy almost fail to hold his chopsticks steady.
"What did you say?! The Li Family's old patriarch broke through to become a Soul Saint?!"
The prince's envoy revealed an expression of astonishment.
Previously he was merely a Soul Emperor, yet today he was a Soul Saint?
"Yes, many people are discussing it, so it shouldn't be false." The servant was filled with awe and trepidation.
"I know, you can step down first." The prince's envoy waved his hand, and the servant quickly departed.
If he truly broke through to become a Soul Saint, then my attitude toward the Li Family must be different.
The prince's envoy put away his condescending mentality.
After all, how many Soul Saints were there in the entire Balak Kingdom? Even Soul Douluos were very few, countable on one's fingers.
Moreover, the Prince Mansion didn't even have a single Soul Douluo; there was only a Level 71 Soul Saint, and this Soul Saint had recently followed the young lord to the Star Dou Forest to hunt for a soul ring and still hadn't returned.
Within the Balak Kingdom, the gold content of a Soul Saint was still very large.
Without even finishing his food, he went straight downstairs and personally headed to the Li Family.
Originally, he had planned to have people notify the Li Family and have the other party's family head come over here to talk with him, while he himself wouldn't go over. This could reflect his own superiority.
But now that a Soul Saint had emerged, the outcome directly reversed.
This world truly still looked at strength.
He couldn't provoke the Li Family; otherwise, as long as the Li Family was willing to pledge allegiance to the Balak royal family, His Majesty the King would definitely arrange a high position for them and heavily reuse them. By that time, even if he were the prince's envoy, he might be handed over by his own prince in order to appease the anger of a Soul Saint.
By that time, the only path before his eyes would be one!
That was... a dead end!
At the same time, the news regarding his sudden arrival in Suotuo City also quickly reached the ears of the Li Family.
After all, the entire Suotuo City had already formed a very massive profit network, and the carriage of the prince's estate was very luxurious, appearing bright and clear on the main street. Everyone was no fool.
Informing the Li Family of the news could earn a large batch of very abundant gold soul coins as a reward.
Whatever happened inside Suotuo City basically could not escape the discerning eyes of the Li Family.
Right at early morning, Li Jianguo, Su Lan, Li Yusong, and Li Fei were sitting together enjoying breakfast.
Li Fei watched as the three of them drank the soup containing his heart blood, revealing a trace of a satisfied smile.
He was also very curious to see what kind of difference a Level 37 Soul Elder's heart blood would have.
Soon, the effects appeared. The complexions of the three were better, their vitality was even more exuberant, and their entire bodies were filled with an adequate sense of power.
Hum!
Li Yusong's cultivation directly broke through from Level 73 to Level 74.
Li Jianguo and Su Lan's soul power also broke through from Level 55 to Level 56.
Li Jianguo and Su Lan had relatively lower cultivation, and the effects within their bodies had not yet been completely absorbed. Once they finished refining it properly, there was no telling; they might even improve by a few levels.
As for Li Yusong, he was inherently a Soul Saint, so being able to break through by one level was already very good. Wanting to continuously break through in a short period of time was still somewhat difficult.
Unless Li Fei's cultivation reached an even higher level.
However, even so, the effect of the heart blood would still continuously transform and sublimate their physical conditions.
"Why was the effect this time so fierce?"
"It directly upgraded me by one level, saving at least one or two years of bitter cultivation," Li Yusong said in shock.
Ever since such a situation appeared the first time, it hadn't appeared again afterwards.
The ingredients were still the previous ones, yet this time it appeared?
This was a matter very worthy of deep contemplation.
"Me too. There is a continuous stream of power inside my body. I feel that after I finish refining it, I can still improve."
Li Jianguo and Su Lan said.
Right at this moment, the butler walked over and informed Li Fei and the other three of the news regarding the arrival of the prince's carriage.
"Why has Bala Prince suddenly visited Suotuo City?" Li Jianguo and Su Lan were somewhat puzzled.
Li Yusong and Li Fei's pupils constricted, and they exchanged glances.
Li Fei asked, "Which direction are they heading?"
"Young Master, their direction is coming toward our Li Family."
The butler said.
"Coming to our place?"
Li Yusong frowned.
He worried that the matter of them killing the prince's son had been exposed.
After all, this matter was of great importance, and neither he nor Li Fei had informed Li Jianguo and Su Lan about it.
After all, one fewer person knowing meant one more share of safety.
"I know. You all just act like nothing happened, let everything proceed naturally, and step down," Li Fei said.
"Yes." The butler left.
"If my guess is correct, this time the prince has come very likely wanting to get a share of the pie from us."
"Or perhaps it's a probing test toward us."
Li Fei said.
"Wait and adapt to the situation."
They had already perfectly destroyed the evidence; it was absolutely impossible for anyone to discover that they were the ones who did it.
Therefore, he dared to assert that the prince's arrival this time was definitely not coming for the sake of his son's post-mortem affairs.
What's more, the other party perhaps still didn't know that his son was dead.
After all, hunting soul rings inside the Star Dou Forest would encounter all sorts of special circumstances, and it was normal for returning to take a long time.
If it was a matter of cooperation, Li Fei also planned to pull the prince into the water and sit on the same boat with their Li Family.
By that time, with the Spirit Hall Branch and a prince escorting them, the Li Family's safety index would soar straight up!
