Chapter 14: The Gale Family's Counterattack
Hearing this, everyone present looked at the green-robed young man. It was obvious that this man was highly valued by the top leaders of the Jialie family.

Even though he was furious, Galibi had to soften his tone and asked:

"Brother Liu Xi, do you have any good suggestions?"

The young man called Liu Xi said calmly: "I am just an alchemist. I am not good at fighting and killing."

Everyone understood that he was complaining that no one had taken him seriously just now.

Immediately afterwards, an elder who was highly respected in the Jialie family came out to smooth things over, saying with a smile:
"Master Liu Xi, there is no need to be modest. You are a great alchemist who has traveled far and wide and has a wide range of knowledge. It is not your idea to destroy a small family like the Xiao family in Wutan City, right?"

Liu Xi was very pleased with these words.

After hearing this, a smile immediately broke out on his face, with a look of smugness all over his face.

After the elder finished speaking, he nodded to Jialebi. Jialebi immediately raised a trace of disdain at the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself: "You are a brainless thing. If you didn't know how to make medicine, I would have kicked you out long ago."

"Of course." Liu Xi said, then he took out a small medicine bottle from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said proudly:
"You just need to take this rejuvenation powder to the market to sell. Within three days, it will definitely take away all the popularity of the Xiao family's market." As long as the Xiao family's market has no business, will the Xiao family still have an easy life? And then I don't need to tell you what to do, hehe..."

After Liu Xi finished speaking, the elder of the Jialie family immediately walked over and picked up the small medicine bottle. He first put it under his nose and sniffed it, then poured out a little and rubbed it between his fingers. His eyes suddenly lit up, and then he exclaimed: "The medicinal power of the rejuvenation powder is much better than that in the market. Master Liu Xi, did you make this yourself?"

"Of course. My rejuvenation powder is not only effective, but also requires cheap herbs. I believe that with my ability and this special recipe, I will be able to monopolize the healing medicine market in Wutan City."

The elders of the Jialie family immediately flattered him: "Master Liu Xi is amazing. I believe that as long as we sell the Rejuvenation Powder in the market, the mercenaries in Wutan City will rush to grab it like crazy. As long as we attract them, the business of the Xiao family market will be ruined."

Those mercenaries who have been on the edge of danger and often fight with death have an almost paranoid love for healing drugs. After all, when they are deep in some dangerous places, a little bit of healing drugs may save their lives and those of their companions. It is a life-saving thing.

Therefore, whoever controls the healing medicine can control the lifeline of the market business.

At this time, the elder looked at Jialebi and suggested: "Patriarch, why don't we destroy the Xiao family's business first and eat up their market, then it won't be too late to go to war with them."

"Yes, clan leader, if the Xiao family loses its market town, it will be like a toothless tiger. You can squeeze them however you want..." Another elder also stood up to persuade.

"..."

After everyone's persuasion, Jialiebi finally compromised and said helplessly: "Okay, let's eat up the Xiao Family Market first."

Hearing this, everyone present secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Galiebi did not insist on starting a war, and with the help of the alchemist, the day for the Galie family to come to the fore in Wutan City would come.

"Since the clan leader has agreed, I'll have to trouble Lord Liu Xi with the medicine refining in the future." The elder struck while the iron was hot and said respectfully with his hands clasped.

"Okay, as long as you give me enough women to play with, refining medicine will be a matter of minutes." Liu Xi said with a pout, and then he put his hand into the maid's clothes and flirted with her.

Hearing Liu Xi taking on such a big responsibility, everyone in the Jialie family was very happy.

"Lord Liu Xi, I have just sent people to the Miter Auction House to purchase medicinal herbs. When the herbs arrive, you can work hard and start refining the herbs today. It would be best if you can refine more. We will sell them at the market tomorrow." The elder smiled, looked at Liu Xi's face, and quickly added: "In addition, today we were lucky enough to buy a pair of rare snake girls from the Tagor Desert. I have already sent them to Lord Liu Xi's room."

Being urged to refine the medicine, Liu Xi looked a little unhappy.

However, when he heard the word "snake girl", his impatience immediately turned into obscenity. He nodded with shining eyes and said in a big way: "Don't worry, there are as many rejuvenation powders as there are medicinal herbs. You don't have to worry about this."

Seeing how easy it was, Liu Xi nodded. The senior members of the Galie family looked at each other, unable to hide the smiles on their faces.

…Night falls and the lights come on.

There was a knock on the door outside Xiao Chen's room.

When I opened it, it was Xiao Mei.

"Have you changed your clothes?"

"Ah."

After Xiao Mei finished speaking, she quickly lowered her head and went in beside Xiao Chen.

After all, it was just getting dark and there were people walking around outside from time to time. It would be bad if someone saw us.

"Does it look good?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen's eyes had been wandering around her since he opened the door, she asked shyly. Today's dress was chosen by her mother. It looked good, but it was a little revealing, which made her a little uncomfortable.

"It looks good." Xiao Chen swallowed the saliva in his throat.

You are dressed so sexy.
Can it not look good?
Xiao Mei pulled Xiao Chen to her side and playfully whispered in his ear, "Where is the big treasure you said you wanted to show me?"

Feeling the air blowing in his ears, Xiao Chen felt itchy in his ears and heart. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's over, it's become a spirit, and it can learn everything without a teacher."

"Guess?" Xiao Chen scratched Xiao Mei's nose with his hand.

Then, like a magic trick, he took out a martial arts book from the system space and displayed it in front of Xiao Mei.

Looking at the ancient green scroll in Xiao Chen's hand, Xiao Mei's heartbeat quickened, and she asked anxiously:
"What is this? A technique?"

Xiao Chen stuffed the scroll into her hand and said

"Open it and see for yourself."

The entire scroll glowed slightly green, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary item. At Xiao Chen's repeated signaling, Xiao Mei carefully opened the scroll.

Looking at the simple words above, Xiao Mei opened her mouth into an O shape:
"Xuan-level advanced technique: Fengjuan Jue!"

"Do you like it?" Seeing Xiao Mei's happy expression, Xiao Chen felt very accomplished: "If you like it, I'll give it to you."

"This is too expensive..."

Before the auction of the Wind Scroll Art at Miter Auction House, they advertised it extensively in Wutan City. Almost everyone in Wutan City, regardless of whether they practiced Dou Qi or not, had heard of the three words "Wind Scroll Art". Needless to say, its value was great.

"Stop talking so much and hurry up and learn. We have something important to do in the evening."

"What's the big deal?" Seeing Xiao Chen slowly approaching and the smirk on his face, Xiao Mei immediately understood, and quickly patted his back, saying shyly:
"Hate it, you blew out the candle first, oops..."
