Chapter 91: Kaito's Conspiracy
The queen heard Cara's words and tightly wrapped the bottle in her chest, with a surprised expression: "Tian Na! Qing Tian, you are really Auntie's most precious treasure!"
Cut! The poor Taoist is so angry he's about to vomit, it's really true that whoever gives milk is a mother!
"Auntie likes it, that's all that matters! I went to great lengths to get this! It was specially prepared for Auntie!" The poor monk then smiled and said to everyone: "However, the Great Demon Sorcerer Karla still hasn't fully recognized me!"
"Ah!" The people around were shocked again.
"Am I wrong?" Kara's face fell, and she said angrily!
"At least it's not completely right!" The poor Taoist said with a smile
"Tell me more!" Cara exclaimed loudly.
"This is no ordinary amethyst crystal!" The poor Taoist paused for a moment
"Is that special?" Kara asked with a frown
"It's the royal purple crystal honey, specially prepared for the queen bee. Its effect is several times that of ordinary purple crystal honey!" The poor Taoist replied loudly.
"What evidence do you have?" Kara asked discontentedly: "After all, except for the Dragon God of Law, who has seen this thing?"
"Hehe! Everyone look!" The poor Taoist took out another bottle from the spatial ring, which was made of pure gold and also a product of the Earth Spirit Master. He said to everyone: "This is ordinary! Please let the Great Demon Master appraise it!"
As I said, I handed it over to Cara. Cara took it and opened it immediately. She smelled it and a very fragrant aroma wafted out, but it was several times more intense than before and lacked the elegance of the previous one. The refreshing effect was also not as strong as before! Although it was many times stronger than other fragrances, compared to the previous one, it was like comparing an ugly duckling to a swan - the difference was not just ordinary!
"Not bad! It seems what you said is true!" Cara exclaimed with a sincere tone: "This one is much worse than the previous one, but I can still feel the magical elements hidden inside. Little guy, can you sell it to me? Name your price!"
"Ha! You know, this thing can slightly enhance a mage's magical power. Taking it regularly may even increase the mage's rank. It will be of great help to you on your path to becoming a Law God!"
"Hehe! Little guy, being too clever might not be a good thing!" Cara said gloomily: "Fine! I'm already prepared to be ripped off by you! You can name your price now!"
"Hehe! Don't think of me as that bad, how about this: you help me with three things in the future and we're even?"
"Haha! You're indeed the cunning Fifth Master! My old bones, over a hundred years old, still have to risk my life three times for you, and you can really bear it!" Kala said with distress.
"Whether it's successful or not is up to you!" I'm too lazy to waste words on him!
"Do I have a choice?" Kara took back the bottle and turned away!
"Ha! What's that delicious smell?" The king, after finishing his self-proclaimed 'historic' meeting, brought Nicholas here to show off in front of the courtiers. Catching a whiff of an unusual fragrance, he asked casually.
"Your Majesty! Look!" The queen exclaimed with joy, showing off the thing in her hand to the king, "Guess what this is? You absolutely won't guess it!"
"Was that fragrance just now from it? Is it a foreign import perfume?" The king is very familiar with and interested in the woman's things!
"This isn't perfume, it's a gift from my nephew! You absolutely can't imagine its incredible origin!" The queen continued to introduce excitedly.
"What's so special about this thing, anyway?" The king said skeptically.
"Royal Jelly of the Violet Crystal Bee! It's something that can keep you young forever - Royal Jelly of the Violet Crystal Bee!" The queen almost jumped up to introduce it.
"What? Could it be the legendary... Purple Crystal Bee Queen's Honey that makes the Dragon God of Law forever young?" The king asked in surprise.
"Yes! My nephew gave it to me!"
"Heavens!" The newly arrived ministers gasped in unison.
No wonder the queen was overjoyed to the point of being out of control. It's not like she's young anymore, with crow's feet around her eyes, and although she's still secure on her throne thanks to the dragon family's influence, she's no longer in the king's favor. On the other hand, Ishihara, the young and vibrant queen consort, is highly favored by the emperor and has reached a point where she can threaten the queen's position. With this thing, the queen would have the ability to regain the king's affection, which could affect the future succession of the throne - how could she not be overjoyed?
"What a lucky guy!" Ishihara Kuma said with a sarcastic tone: "First, he caught Nicholas as a prisoner, and then got the Purple Crystal Bee King's honey. His luck is just too good, isn't it?"
"What's the point of taking Nicholas as a prisoner?" Nicholas said discontentedly: "Can I be taken?"
Ishihara Kuma was taken aback, he didn't expect this captive Nicholas to dare speak to him in such a manner. In anger, he said: "Weren't you the one who was unexpectedly ambushed by demons while crossing the Spirit Forest, resulting in your entire army being wiped out and you were captured by someone who took advantage of your misfortune?"
"Unexpected? Don't think Nicholas is as stupid as you!" Nicholas sneered, "I have deployed less than 3000 scouts around the perimeter to keep watch. As long as one of them detects the trail of the Purple Crystal Bees in advance, I can run as far as I want and avoid being completely wiped out! This isn't an unexpected event, it's that little brat's deliberate arrangement!"
"What? How is this possible?" The ministers asked in surprise!
"I walked on that road, where hundreds of merchant teams had passed before, but never found even one purple crystal bee. At that time, I saw with my own eyes a strange spear, half in the ground and half towards the sky, with a purple crystal bee king stuck on the top. This spear was actually able to move quickly through the ground, followed by countless purple crystal bees, filling the entire sky. My scouts didn't even have time to run away from them before they were stung to death. The spear suddenly flew out of the ground in front of my military camp and inserted itself into my camp. You all know what happened next - the purple crystal bees are ruthless! That's how I was completely defeated!" said Nicolas gloomily.
"That doesn't necessarily mean I'm the one who's behind it, does it? Do you have any evidence?" The poor monk asked unwillingly. That Nicolas is really despicable, he clearly knows that I'm being envied and bullied here, but still wants to add fuel to the fire and intentionally wants me dead! How vicious!
"Huh? Where did you get the purple crystal honey?" Nicolas sneered, "Even the Dragon God can't get it and ended up with nothing, what makes you think you can get some?"
"This is none of your business!" The poor Taoist secretly regretted it, and the flaw was actually here. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have taken it out!
"Hmph! Wasn't it when the Purple Crystal Bees were out in full force that you snuck into their nest and got this?! You really can kill two birds with one stone, can't you?!" Nicolas said viciously.
Damn it! I'm furious, this guy really doesn't know what's good for him! He's exposing all my secrets! He's saying this to the king, his purpose is to slander me and drive a wedge between me and the king. After all, I didn't tell the king the truth, in the report I submitted to the military department, I said it was Nicholas who crashed into the purple crystal bee himself, otherwise how could I explain the 'earth escape technique' to them?
I can now feel the king's murderous gaze staring at me. The extremely unpleasant poor Taoist bluntly said to Nicholas, "Heh heh, useless trash, that's all you're good for!"
"Haha! Well said!" Nicholas didn't get angry, but instead smiled at me and said: "You're the only one on this continent who's worthy of calling me a waste!"
"Long Qingtian, you're too presumptuous! How can you speak to your elders like that? Apologize to your uncle at once!" The king said coldly.
"No!" Nicholas interrupted: "He's right! I am a waste, losing to a child, how can I not be a waste?"
He then took off the sword and handed it to me, saying seriously: "This sword was given to me by my mentor when I went to study at the Holy Light Advanced Magic Martial Academy!" Then he said proudly: "It has accompanied Nicholas for decades, undefeated in battle! Now! I want to give it to you as proof of Nicholas' defeat, and also give you the title of the continent's number one general! However, I swear that I will definitely take it back on the battlefield. I hope that before then, you won't fall in front of others!"
What a sun! How sinister, Nicholas is really sinister. The title of the first general of this continent is not good at all, it's simply a disaster, how many people will be jealous! He just said a few light words and gave me a sword that doesn't look great, but it caused me a lot of trouble. But under the eyes of everyone, if I don't accept it, not only will my reputation be ruined from now on, but also my family's reputation will be humiliated, and I'm afraid the king won't forgive me first, having a continent's first general as his subject, this reputation is too important for him!
"I'm waiting for you!" I squeezed out these words from between my teeth. Then, I took the treasure sword and turned to leave. On my way out of the grand hall, I felt countless jealous eyes shooting towards me, as if they could devour me whole. First in literature, second in martial arts. Among so many nobles, almost everyone held a military position, yet it was me, a young whippersnapper, who received the title of the continent's number one general. How could they not hate me? It's easy to imagine how many obstacles will be added to my path in the military from now on!
Damn Nicholas! Crafty Nicholas! I've been cursing this guy in my heart - born with no eyes!
