Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

As household staff, Yue Qingyou could only answer politely. But she continued looking at Qi Yuan coldly.

Qi Yuan was so scared that she shrank back. Who is this woman? She’s so scary.

Being stared at like this, she felt a chill running through her bones.

She turned to look at Ning Yechen for help, her eyes looking puzzled and afraid.

“Miss Qi, this is a maid from my household who used to be my personal maid. Her name is Yue Qingyou,” Ning Yechen introduced.

Qi Yuan looked curiously at Yue Qingyou.

When she noticed Yue Qingyou’s appearance and temperament, she had thought that Yue Qingyou was Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen\'s guest.

It turned out she was Ning Yechen\'s personal maid!

Qi Yuan grew up in a wealthy family, so she had plenty of interaction with the rich and powerful. She thought she had already encountered her fair share of extraordinary household staff, but she had never met anyone with such an appearance and demeanor.

Even if someone told her that Yue Qingyou was a princess, she would not doubt it for a moment.

Even Ning Yechen\'s staff were so special.

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se were already outstanding, but Yue Qingyou was even more mind-blowing.

There was only one thing she could not wrap her mind around. She could not understand why Yue Qingyou did not seem to like her.

Qi Yuan did not keep thinking about it further. She quietly averted her eyes, not daring to make eye contact with Yue Qingyou. Instead, she turned her eyes to Ning Yechen and asked, “Oh yes, Big Brother Ning, you wanted to see me today?”

“That’s right.” Ning Yechen smiled. “Miss Qi, the Jiang family has already handed over control of their territories, but they remain in the city, correct?”

“That\'s true. Even though we’ve taken over their territories, a lot of businesses have taken their sides, so the Jiang family still holds control over them, and business is as usual for the family,” Qi Yuan said angrily.

The moment the Jiang family was brought up, she was furious!

Even though the Qi family had taken over the territories and now held majority control of Nanli City, many chambers of commerce still stood on the Jiang family\'s side.

Since the rental contracts for some shops had yet to expire, despite losing control of their territories, business went on as usual for the Jiang family.

Once their rental contracts were up, the Qi family could threaten any businesses that wanted to continue working with the Jiang family.

When the time came, even if those businesses refused to change sides, the Qi family could use their power and refuse to work with them, forcing them to close their doors.

But before it came to that, the Qi family could not do anything about the Jiang family.

They could only talk to the tenants and convince them to join the Qi family.

Sadly, things were not going smoothly.

Yesterday, Qi Yuan had a hard time coming up with a solution for this problem.

If they were unable to defeat the Jiang family in one fell swoop, no one knew what other tricks the Jiang family would resort to.

Ning Yechen continued asking, “I recall that the Jiangs’ core business is pills and medicine, right?”

“That\'s right. Ten years ago, the Jiang family got their hands on the prescription for the Fire Lotus Medicine. It’s a fourth-grade body tempering medicine. The Fire Lotus Medicine can temper bodies and is a huge hit with cultivators.

“The Jiang family was able to rise thanks to it. In the city, all major stores sell the Fire Lotus Medicine,” Qi Yuan said solemnly.

If not for the Fire Lotus Medicine, the Jiang family would not have been able to rise at such speed and outdo the Qi family.

Owing to the high earnings derived from the sale of the Fire Lotus Medicine, countless businesses worked with them.

“Fourth-grade body tempering medicine, huh?” Ning Yechen touched his chin gently and pondered.

Qi Yuan looked puzzled.

She did not understand why Ning Yechen suddenly asked about the Jiang family.

Moments later, Ning Yechen waved his hand at Yue Qingyou. “Qingyou, brush and paper.”

“Yes, Young Master.” Yue Qingyou promptly brought a brush and paper over.

Ning Yechen took the brush and paper and swiftly wrote down the names of dozens of heavenly herbs.

Qi Yuan did not understand.

Sitting beside Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying could not help craning her head over. The more she looked at the heavenly herbs, the more her eyes widened in shock.

This seemed like a prescription for some kind of body tempering medicine.

And it was one she had never seen before.

She had grown up in the Heavenly Realm and had perused all kinds of heavenly medical texts and knew all kinds of good prescriptions. However, she had never seen Ning Yechen’s prescription before.

She studied Ning Yechen’s prescription and visualized it in her mind.

She shockingly realized how well the ingredients worked with each other to bring about body tempering effects!

It was at least a seventh-grade body tempering medicine!

He did not randomly write it down!

Luo Ruying’s eyes were full of amazement.

Ning Yechen’s casual prescription was a seventh-grade body tempering medicine!

And she had never encountered it before!

After Ning Yechen finished writing the prescription, he handed the paper to Qi Yuan and said calmly, “This is a body tempering medicine called Immortality Pill. It will produce pills that can be mixed in water for body tempering effects. As for its grade, I’m not sure… It’s probably seventh grade.”

“Seventh-grade body tempering medicine?”

Qi Yuan took the paper. Initially, she did not quite understand what was going on. The moment Ning Yechen said it was a seventh-grade body tempering medicine, she was so shocked that her hands trembled!

A seventh-grade body tempering medicine! The value of this medicine was enough to take over all of Nanli City.

Ning Yechen had handed it over so freely!

Moreover, he had casually written it on a piece of white paper!

Seeing the shock on Qi Yuan’s face, Yue Qingyou laughed inside.

Qi Yuan was just a nobody who knew nothing.

This seventh-grade body tempering medicine was the lowest grade medicine that the Demon Lord could think of.

If the Demon Lord wanted, he could produce tenth-grade body tempering medicine prescriptions easily.

“The ingredients should be easy enough to obtain. I believe with your family\'s power, it shouldn’t be a problem. Even if the quality of the refined pills is bad, they should be fifth grade and above. Once you get home, tell your family to buy all its ingredients. Even if you have to pay ten times the price from the Jiang family, you have to buy them,” Ning Yechen continued instructing her.

Qi Yuan blinked blankly while holding the prescription before her eyes gradually lit up.

She instantly knew what Ning Yechen’s goal was!

He wanted the Qi family to suppress the Jiang family using this seventh-grade body tempering medicine!
