Chapter 1465 Alchemist Guild (1)
"Father." There was a knock on the door, followed by Liang Yingyue's slightly anxious voice.
Liang Zongxing heard the anxiety in his daughter's voice and couldn't help frowning slightly. He immediately asked his daughter to come in.
"Father, Senior Lu, bad news. The Lu family and the Alchemist Guild have joined forces and made it clear that they're going against our "Just A Store". They even said that those who want to buy pills from the Alchemist Guild can't come to our "Just A Store" again, or they'll be blacklisted by the Alchemist Guild."
Liang Yingyue looked furious and quickly told them what happened just then.
Hearing that, Liang Zongxing's expression became a bit solemn. "It seems that the Lu family has already noticed what we did behind our backs. However, the Alchemist Guild has never interfered in the affairs of other family clans. Why were they convinced by the Lu family this time?"
Liang Zongxing fell into deep thought. Apparently, he didn't understand what the Lu family gave the Alchemist Guild to make an exception.
Lu Zijia smiled and pointed it out. "Nothing is impossible as long as there are benefits to be gained."
In her previous life, the Alchemist Guild was already dissatisfied with the Liang family because of the existence of an alchemist like her.
Now that the Liang family, which was in dire straits, had the possibility of rising again, they probably felt a bit uncomfortable.
Under such circumstances, the Lu family gave them benefits that tempted them, so the cooperation was naturally reached.
"Then what should we do now?" Liang Yingyue asked with a worried look.
Alchemy, weapon refinement, inscriptions, talismans, and array formation. Among these five techniques, alchemy was the most important.
Because pills were what cultivators needed the most. Most importantly, pills could directly help cultivators increase their strength.
As for the other four techniques, they could basically only increase the external power of cultivators.
However, no matter how strong external forces were, if the cultivator's cultivation level wasn't high enough, it was useless no matter how powerful a spirit weapon or talisman he held, because his cultivation level was too low and he couldn't use it at all.
It was the same reasoning as a three-year-old child trying to carry a heavy hammer.
Liang Zongxing didn't reply immediately, because even he found this matter troublesome.
After all, what cultivators couldn't lack the most were pills that could increase their cultivation level.
Besides, pills had another most important use, which was to help cultivators increase their breakthrough rate.
If one wanted to become a Foundation Establishment cultivator, they had to take the Foundation Establishment Pill to help them. Otherwise, it was almost impossible to succeed in the Foundation Establishment realm.
However, in the Alchemist Guild of Zhuang Prefectural City, the highest level of alchemy was only at the high-level Yellow Grade, while the Foundation Establishment Pill was a Black Grade pill.
So, there had never been any signs of Foundation Establishment Pills in the intermediate Alchemist Guild of Zhuang Prefectural City.
And those who wanted the Foundation Establishment Pill could only go to higher-level cities to auction, such as the Imperial City.
Lu Zijia stretched and said a bit helplessly, "It seems that my seclusion plan will be delayed for a while again."
The Lu family actually convinced the members of the Alchemist Guild. It seemed that the reward promised was definitely not low.
"Fellow Taoist Lu, do you have a way?"
Liang Zongxing looked surprised. Apparently, he didn't expect Lu Zijia to think of a solution in such a short time.
"Yeah."
Lu Zijia nodded. "But I'll have to trouble Fellow Taoist Liang to gather some materials for me."
Liang Zongxing immediately replied solemnly, "Fellow Taoist Lu, don't worry. Leave the materials to me."
