Moreover, Liu Xuanrui knew that his daughter was extremely proud, and among the talented martial artists in the dynasty, there were almost none that she valued.
Even the top genius of the Emperor Star Academy, Liu Lingyun, was ignored by her. Instead, her attitude towards Qin Chen was very gentle, which made Liu Xuanrui unable to help but ponder.
However, the smile on his face quickly faded. Liu Xuanrui looked at Zhuo Qingfeng, and his gaze became incredibly serious as he said in a deep voice, “Zhuo Pavilion Master, you have come at the right time today. I have something important that I need to discuss with you.”
“Is there something you wish to discuss with me?”
Zhuo Qingfeng was taken aback. Seeing Liu Xuanrui's solemn expression, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows: “May I ask what it is that Your Majesty wishes to discuss with this old man?”
Ye Lue Hongtao and Nangong Li also looked over in confusion.
“This matter is of great importance, so I hope Pavilion Master Zhuo will speak with me privately.” Liu Xuanrui hesitated for a moment and said.
Speak privately?
Ye Lue Hongtao and Nangong Li exchanged glances. Was there something that could only be discussed with Zhuo Qingfeng while avoiding them?
However, seeing Liu Xuanrui's serious expression, they both understood that this matter was definitely not ordinary.
“If that is the case, please lead the way, Your Majesty.” Zhuo Qingfeng, feeling puzzled, stood up directly.
“Huang Huan, please accompany President Nangong Li and Hall Master Ye Lue Hongtao to have a good chat. I will leave with Pavilion Master Zhuo for a moment.” Liu Xuanrui also stood up and cupped his hands towards Nangong Li and the others, saying, “I sincerely apologize, I have matters to discuss with Pavilion Master Zhuo, so I will take my leave for a moment.”
“Your Majesty, please go ahead.”
Although Nangong Li and Ye Lue Hongtao were curious, they both smiled and cupped their hands, showing no unusual expressions.
Some matters, since Liu Xuanrui did not want them to know, they certainly couldn’t be allowed to know, so the two had no objections.
A moment later, Liu Xuanrui brought Zhuo Qingfeng into the inner hall.
“I wonder what matter Your Majesty called me here for? Please, do let me know clearly.”
Zhuo Qingfeng looked at Liu Xuanrui in confusion.
What could require avoiding Chen Shao and President Nangong Li? Could it be something related to the internal affairs of the Chen Di Pavilion? Otherwise, Zhuo Qingfeng couldn't think of any other matter that would cause Liu Xuanrui to appear so serious.
Liu Xuanrui stated solemnly, “I called Pavilion Master Zhuo here because I have an important request. I wonder if Pavilion Master Zhuo knows of any Master Pharmacists in the North Sky Domain?”
“Master Pharmacists?” Zhuo Qingfeng was taken aback and frowned, “If we are talking about Master Pharmacists, I do know of two, and even my teacher is a Master Pharmacist. But may I ask why Your Majesty inquires about this?”
Liu Xuanrui's eyes lit up: “Then, Pavilion Master Zhuo, could you arrange for those two Master Pharmacists to come to my Dawei Dynasty for a diagnosis?”
Zhuo Qingfeng smiled wryly: “Your Majesty, I’m sure you have heard about why I came to Dawei Dynasty to serve as the head of the Alchemy Pavilion. It was because I made a mistake and was sent here. The Alchemy Pavilion in the North Sky Domain has clearly stated that as long as I do not become a Master Pharmacist, I shall never return to the North Sky Domain. Even my teacher does not dare to speak on my behalf regarding this matter. Moreover, in the eyes of those top alchemists in the North Sky Domain, the lands of the Hundred Dynasties are almost considered a barbaric land. As a person with sins, it would be extremely difficult for me to invite them to the Hundred Dynasties.”
“Is there… truly no other way?”
Zhuo Qingfeng shook his head: “Perhaps Your Majesty does not know the nature of the mistake I made. The people I offended were from the Piao Miao Palace branch in the North Sky Domain. Even my teacher has to maintain distance from me, so how could any Master Pharmacist dare to contact me? They would probably be too afraid to come near.”
