Protect Our Clan Leader-Chapter 1695 - 123 - Wang Lixian, Truly Unreliable_4

Besides, the basic industries under the control of the Imperial Household, such as food, livestock, fisheries, and forestry, remain stable. Except for forestry, the other industries are in a state of panic.

There’s no choice; both Dongqian’s regular food and Spirit Rice are too cheap.

As for livestock and fisheries, Da Zhou can’t compete at all with Dongqian in these areas.

After finally placating and sending off the elders from the Clan House who came to complain, the Duchess of Luo Jia rubbed her temples and asked the maid, "Where is Shou Ye? Didn’t I ask you to invite him?"

The maid hurriedly replied in fear, "I have already gone to invite him, but Shou Ye’s guard said that his furnace of [Soul Molding Saint Elixir] is at the final stage, and he doesn’t dare disturb him. Once he succeeds, he will come over on his own."

Soul Molding Saint Elixir!

Upon hearing this, the Duchess of Luo Jia felt a moment of astonishment and relief.

This is a 7th Rank Sacred Pill. In Da Zhou, there is no alchemist capable of refining a 7th Rank pill alone, yet Shou Ye can do it all by himself; he is truly a talent beyond compare.

Yet this extraordinary talent is indeed quite peculiar...

Under the guise of inviting Shou Ye to help with alchemy, she invited him to reside in the Manor of the Prefecture Principal. Naturally, he gladly accepted and moved over quickly.

Once he entered the Manor of the Prefecture Principal, he really immersed himself in the alchemy workshop, and in this entire year, they’ve hardly seen each other at all.

If he’s not practicing alchemy, he’s practicing alchemy...

Whether it’s the Imperial Household, Prominent Family, or Sacred Land inviting him for alchemy, he never refuses anyone, taking commissions as per regulations; even if the refining fails, each is left to fate.

With fast alchemy, good appearance, and high success rates, naturally countless people are willing to employ him!

This whole year has been like a spinning wheel, yet Wang Shouye is really happy and fulfilled. Without the family investing in expensive raw materials, he has so many opportunities to hone his skills, leaving him naturally satisfied.

Moreover, guided by the Profound Pills Codex, his level in alchemy has been skyrocketing, progressing rapidly daily.

Now, he’s already started attempting to refine the 7th Rank Sacred Pill.

Yet this passion for alchemy can’t be too obsessive, right? Otherwise, life for the two of them in the future will lack excitement; the Duchess of Luo Jia couldn’t help but lament internally.

Then, at this moment.

The head of household reported that Yao Chengchao from Yao’s Air Transport had come seeking an audience with the Duchess, reportedly also bringing Shou Ye’s family to find him.

Yao Chengchao?

He’s one of the most sought-after figures among the young generation of the Immortal Dynasty.

As for Shou Ye’s family... naturally, the Duchess of Luo Jia must personally meet them.

An incense stick’s time later.

In the reception hall of the Manor of the Prefecture Principal.

The Duchess of Luo Jia changed her clothes and meticulously adorned herself, making thorough preparations, and cleverly arranged for the finest tea and pastries in the Manor of the Prefecture Principal, preparing to meet Shou Ye’s family with utmost enthusiasm to leave a good impression.

However, no matter what she anticipated, she did not expect that the one led by the maid into the reception hall would be a stunningly beautiful woman, holding a fox in one arm and leading a water-like little girl with the other.

Seeing this scene, the Duchess of Luo Jia was momentarily bewildered.

Then, her pupils abruptly tightened, and a thought involuntarily popped into her mind.

This woman, so dazzlingly extraordinary, traversed thousands of miles to find Shou Ye, perhaps she is Shou Ye’s wife?

In just an instant, the Duchess of Luo Jia instinctively felt a slight tension and hostility.

This feeling was just like the kind of emotion one would have if they had been caught trying to allure someone’s husband, with the rightful spouse bringing a child to confront them.

How perceptive is the Nine Tailed Fox Demon Emperor?

She similarly, at the first moment, sensed the Duchess of Luo Jia’s anomaly, and her heart too birthed some doubts.

Could it be that Wang Shouzhe dispatched her to Beizhou to assist Shou Ye with affairs, fundamentally because of this woman?

Could this be Wang Shouzhe’s confidante outside?

As the two exchanged glances, sparks involuntarily flew in the air.
