Chapter 126: Catering to His Interests (3)
Su Luo raised an eyebrow with a faint, ambiguous smile: "May I ask if Steward Xu is here?"
Steward Xu? A complex look flashed across Steward Leng's face; Steward Xu's identity was mysterious, not someone he could easily afford to offend.
He glared at Su Luo, turned around, and left, but still left behind a sentence: "Let them in."
Just a steward, yet so arrogant… Su Luo shook her head; she wouldn't deliberately bicker with such a person, but if he were to cross her, he should pray for his own good fortune.
With a servant leading the way, Su Luo soon reunited with Steward Xu.
Although Steward Xu's situation wasn't as wretched as kneeling at the door, it wasn't much better either.
Steward Leng had placed Steward Xu in a side room, with maids and servants waiting nearby to attend to his needs; if hungry, there were snacks on the table, and if thirsty, there was tea, neither cold nor hot, fulfilling basic courtesies, but simply refusing to let Steward Xu see Pharmacist Leng.
Steward Xu was full of anxiety, "We can endure it, but our master cannot. This won't do! I will go find Pharmacist Leng myself! I refuse to believe that with our master's prestige, he, Leng Yan, would dare to utter a single word of refusal!"
Although that manor was a secret base for the Tiger Wolf Legion, for Your Highness's sake, such a risk was worth taking.
Su Luo frowned; were they preparing to reveal Nangong Liuyun's identity to Pharmacist Leng?
Su Luo grabbed him to stop him and said calmly: "Things haven't reached that point yet. How about this, let me try first."
From what she had seen and heard along the way, Su Luo had already grasped Leng Yan's temperament quite well. She raised her hand to summon a servant and calmly ordered: "Bring me brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone."
Although the servant was puzzled, he still quickly prepared the items Su Luo needed.
Sitting at the desk, Su Luo held a wolf-hair brush, appearing to be deep in thought.
But in reality, her Soul had already fled into her space.
She remembered that back in the cave, besides obtaining Purple Fire Elder's "nameless elixir formula", there were also over a dozen pages of yellowed, short notes covered in dense text. At the time, because of the time constraints, Su Luo hadn't examined them carefully, only vaguely feeling that they were Ancient Elixir Formulas.
Just now, hearing Apothecary Zuo mention it, the only way to move Pharmacist Leng, Leng Yan, was to present an Ancient Elixir Formula.
Therefore, Su Luo immediately recalled that stack of yellowed paper she had left in a corner of her space.
Su Luo picked them up and carefully flipped through them; sure enough, every single page was a prescription, and it was clearly written on them that they were Ancient Elixir Formulas.
Although Su Luo had never seen what other Ancient Elixir Formulas looked like, the name of Purple Fire Elder was a guarantee of credibility. Anything that Purple Fire Elder could treasure and place alongside his "nameless elixir formula" absolutely could not be a fake.
Su Luo randomly pulled one out and looked closely; it was a "muscle regeneration pill" formula.
The muscle regeneration pill, as the name implies, means "skin regeneration." If someone had a broken hand or foot, with the muscle regeneration pill, it would be possible to recover as before.
This Ancient Elixir Formula had long been lost on the continent; no one would have expected that it would be passed on again through Su Luo's hands.
Su Luo carefully examined this Ancient Elixir Formula.
It not only detailed the required Materials but also clearly recorded every step, every detail, every potential problem that might arise, and their troubleshooting; furthermore, to refine the muscle regeneration pill, one must be a High-level Alchemist or above.
Su Luo still had a long way to go before becoming a High-level Alchemist, so she didn't value this Pill Formula that much.
Of course, if this Pill Formula still couldn't move Pharmacist Leng, Su Luo would consider offering the purple fire medicine cauldron; after all, to her, the purple fire medicine cauldron was just an inanimate object, while Nangong Liuyun was her unavoidable responsibility.
Although Su Luo knew that the Ancient Elixir Formula was very precious, later facts proved that she had still severely underestimated its value…
