“No, I …” Kang Zhaoming wanted to think of an excuse, but manager Ling Hua didn’t give him the chance. She raised her hand and slapped him away.

Bang! Bang! Zhaoming had no way of fighting back against manager Ling Hua, and was sent flying a hundred feet away before falling to the ground, unable to get up.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events, but no one said anything, including the important people. Not only did they not scold Ling Hua for attacking, they looked at Kang Zhaoming with anger, as if they had been played.

This Ling Hua was not as simple as being the chief Steward of the pill Hall’s spirit medicine nursery. Not only did he have a deep background, but he was also publicly acknowledged as a pill refining genius by the pill Hall. As long as he had this intention, he would be a strong contender for the next pill Hall’s vice Hall Master.

The reason why he was sitting in the position of the spirit medicine nursery’s head manager, which was not considered a dazzling position to outsiders, was firstly because he had a special interest in cultivating spirit herbs. Secondly, it could also be considered a rotation experience. After all, only after experiencing all the important positions would one have a deep understanding and control of the entire pill Hall. In the future, when competing for the position of pill Hall’s Hall Master, he would naturally have more qualifications and confidence.

If it was someone else questioning Zhaoming like this, the people here might not believe it, but Ling Hua’s words carried far more weight than a newbie like Zhaoming ‘s. It was obvious who they should believe.

After slapping Zhaoming away, Ling Hua took out a clean handkerchief and carefully picked up the two pieces that had been stepped on so hard that they weren’t even Pills anymore.

After that, she turned to Lin Yi and said,””Lin Yi Junior Brother, I happen to have two Foundation Stage golden elixirs here as well. They’re not as good as yours, but they’re still rare. How about you trade them for these?”

Lin Yi’s two Supreme-grade foundation Stage golden pills were only crushed by Kang Zhaoming, making them a little dirty and ugly. If he didn’t mind, he could still use them normally, but it was a little inappropriate to continue using them as a birthday gift for Shangguan LAN ‘er.

This suggestion was a great help to Lin Yi, and it was a big favor.

However, Lin Yi smiled,”I’ve already given these two pills to miss Shangguan. She’s the owner of the pills. Manager Ling Hua, you’re asking the wrong person.”

When steward Ling Hua heard this, she smiled sweetly and said,””You’re right, I’ve been p.i.s.sed off by that Kang Zhaoming b.a.s.t.a.r.d. LAN ‘er, what do you think?”

Shangguan LAN ‘er pouted. This was Lin Yi’s birthday gift to her, of course she didn’t want to give it to someone else. But even if it didn’t affect the effect, it was still disgusting to make her take a pill that Kang Zhaoming had stepped on. It was too much.

“Alright then. I’ll trade with you, senior brother Ling Hua.” Shangguan LAN ‘er finally nodded and agreed.

At this time, the little Curly Bear, who was at the side, carried a box and ran to manager Ling Hua, as if it was presenting a treasure. It lifted it up with great effort while crying non-stop.

“What do you mean?” Manager Ling Hua opened the box, confused. It was the high quality foundation Stage golden pill that Zhaoming had given her.

Seeing this, Shangguan LAN ‘er held her forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry,””Senior brother Ling Hua, it wants you to exchange this Foundation establishment golden core with it …”

Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but smile. This little Curly Bear was really sleazy.

Manager Ling Hua squatted down with a smile and patted the little Curly bear’s head.””Little guy, only a top grade foundation Stage golden core can be exchanged for a top grade foundation Stage golden core. The one in your hand can’t be exchanged. At best, it can only be regarded as a pile of dog s.h.i.+t.”

“Wuwu!” The little Curly Bear was obviously stunned for a moment, and then suddenly threw the Foundation Stage golden core in its hand far away. It even rubbed its paws in disgust, giving people the feeling that it had really grabbed dog s.h.i.+t, making people not know whether to laugh or cry.

And this Foundation establishment golden core that had been thrown out was really just like what steward Ling Hua had said, a pile of stinky dog s.h.i.+t. Even if it had been thrown on the ground, no one had cared about it from the beginning to the end, not even giving it a second look.

Zhaoming was already spitting blood from the hit, and he almost pa.s.sed out from anger.

d.a.m.n it, this is the result of my hard work for ten days and ten nights. It can be sold for hundreds of spiritual jades in the market. Is it worth it to be despised like this?

At this moment, Xu lingchong finally couldn’t take it anymore and suddenly said,””Manager Ling Hua, are you sure these two pills are real? don’t make a mistake and lose money. It’s a small matter for you to suffer a loss, but it won’t be good if you implicate everyone here and become a laughing stock, don’t you think?”

After hearing this, steward Ling Hua’s brows furrowed slightly and she said coldly,””What? now that you’ve become the eldest senior brother of the rising Sky Pavilion, you’re so confident that you even want to question my words?”

These words were said in a domineering manner, but everyone present seemed to have long been accustomed to this.

Steward Ling Hua usually looked like a sissy and was an out-and-out sissy. However, those who really understood him knew that when it came to a critical moment, this person’s domineering and b.l.o.o.d.y nature was definitely not inferior to anyone.

Of course, with his current status as the spirit medicine nursery’s Chief Steward, he didn’t seem as impressive as Xu lingchong’s soaring Pavilion’s eldest Senior Steward. Normally, he wouldn’t dare to speak to Xu lingchong in such a tone.

However, in terms of background, he was no better than Xu lingchong. In terms of ability, he was no weaker than Xu lingchong. In terms of status, other than being the chief Steward of the spirit herb nursery, he was also a strong candidate for the next Hall Master of the pill Hall.

It should be known that the pill Hall was the same as the law enforcement Hall. They were one of the best independent departments in the three great pavilions. If one could become the pill Hall’s Hall Master, he would immediately be on the same level as Gongyang Jie. Therefore, even if steward Ling Hua was only a candidate, she could still look down on Xu lingchong.

Even Gongyang Jie would have to treat him differently in the future. After all, which of these cultivators didn’t eat pills? Who would not be able to seek help from the pill Hall? One word from the hall Master and you’d be blacklisted. Do you really think Zhaoming would make you pills?

Xu lingchong had always thought of himself as extraordinary, especially after he became the soaring Pavilion’s senior brother steward. He was even more proud of himself. Being so rudely scorned in public like this, he couldn’t help but choke until his face turned red. However, considering the other party’s status, he couldn’t fall out in public.
