A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Feng Jiutian looked at the table, pondering whether he should send a message to Ji Tianzuo. After all, Feng Zhi, Ji Xiaoruo, and Han Qianghuan had been wandering around the Guili Forest for more than half a month. More than half a month was enough for people they encountered to remember their faces, not to mention that those who survived the final battle also saw what they looked like...

There are also Fei Hu and Fei Hu's younger brother, both of whom are members of the mercenary group. Although the Jiu Ao Mercenary Group only has a few people, each one is a vibrant individual. Feng Jiu Tian will not force anyone to do anything, nor will she put anyone in danger because of her.

Clearly, the current situation is urgent. Three days is enough for the survivors in Guili Forest to return to their families and depict the appearance of the four people.

The four of them are not safe, and Feng Jiutian will not allow them to be exposed to danger.

At first, Feng Jiutian planned to send them back to the Royal Academy, where they would be protected by their mentors. Those people wouldn't be so bold as to try to sneak into the Royal Academy.

After hearing about the location, Feng Jiutian gave up the idea. The East Ling Kingdom and the West Xuan Kingdom were too far apart. Not to mention the several dangerous Yu Mountains that no one dared to venture into, even if they took a detour and traveled back at the fastest speed, it would still take more than half a month.

Baihu will stay behind to mend the old man's soul, so naturally she won't be sent out.

This became a headache for Feng Jiutian, and a plan was slowly taking shape in his mind.

She rested for a while to recover from her injuries, and an hour later Feng Zhi brought back news of the auction. At the same time, Feng Jiutian also asked her to call the other five people over.

Fei Hu and his younger brother also arrived. Fei Hu seemed a little awkward, but after spending the past two weeks with Feng Zhi and the others, he had become much more relaxed.

"Are you alright now?" Ruohan asked directly.

"There's nothing seriously wrong for now," Feng Jiutian replied readily, and Ruohan nodded to indicate that she understood.

Ji Xiao felt somewhat embarrassed standing inside because of what had happened earlier; he had indeed been too naive when he entered the Guili Forest.

This world was indeed different from what he had imagined. He was not as experienced as Feng Jiutian and was too easily deceived. His experiences over the past two weeks had also made him see things in a more open-minded way. Especially after learning about Feng Jiutian's identity, he felt that he could not keep up with Feng Jiutian's pace.

Ji Xiao was also someone who was willing to admit his mistakes. After everyone arrived, he said, "Jiutian, before... it was my fault."

"Hmm?" Feng Jiutian looked at Ji Xiao.

"Don't worry, I won't hold the team back anymore."

Ji Xiao spoke calmly, and all his words became a promise. Ji Xiao was a man of his word, and he would always do what he said.

"We're all part of the same team, and from now on we'll all be partners. Please sit down," Feng Jiutian said calmly, gesturing for everyone to sit down.

The group nodded and sat down around the table.

Feng Jiutian tapped the table and said with a slightly indifferent expression, "I want everyone to stay and develop in Yuancheng. I wonder what your opinions are?"

"Do you have something in mind?" Ruohan looked at Feng Jiutian seriously.

“That’s right.” Feng Jiutian’s eyes lit up, a smug smile on his face: “This is the most chaotic place on the Tenglong Continent, but it’s also the richest. Starting development here is the most advantageous!”

"I have enough resources and elixirs to train the best mercenary group on this continent. One day we will be so powerful that no one will dare to hunt you down. Why not?"

Qiang Huan was startled: "But the people here are all too strong, we... I'm afraid we can't handle them."

Feng Zhi nodded in agreement, then patted her chest with lingering fear: "I just stepped out and ran into two spirit masters. Their aura was like they were going to crush me!"

Feng Jiutian chuckled and said confidently, "I will send a message to someone, and he will come to guide you. He knows best what to do."

Feng Jiutian was well aware of Ji Tianzuo's abilities. As an assassin, he was quite strong and could easily intimidate a mercenary group.

Feng Jiutian could completely trust him to be her deputy, and only assassins would teach killing moves to kill with one blow when training a mercenary group!

Modern mercenary groups focus solely on team battles, neglecting individual abilities. Once the leader falls, the members scatter. This is not the mercenary group Feng Jiutian desires.

Ruohan and the others nodded to indicate that they understood.

"By the way, keep these pills safe, just in case."

Feng Jiutian distributed a bottle of mid-grade healing pills to everyone and said, "I will leave Yuancheng after the auction tomorrow. There are always people in Guili Forest who are strong enough to track my aura. It would be unsafe for me to stay with you."

"Oh, and remember to disguise yourself," Feng Jiutian added.

Qiang Huan blinked, holding the pill, and raised her hand eagerly, saying, "Disguise! That's my specialty. Just come find me later!"

Feng Zhi opened the bottle of the pill, took a deep breath, and exclaimed with delight, "Wow, a mid-grade top-quality blood-restoring pill... it's priceless!"

The method of refining the Blood Recovery Pill is extremely tricky. The higher the grade, the better the effect. The Blood Recovery Pill can quickly make the meridians automatically circulate and absorb spiritual energy, and at the same time, it can restore the martial artist's battle qi. Anyone can use it regardless of their profession.

A mid-grade top-quality healing pill can instantly restore about 40% of a person's health if both sides are on the verge of death during a battle and one of them takes the pill.

Although it's not the highest, 40% is enough to turn the tide!

However, the requirements for refining the Blood Recovery Pill are really too demanding. Even many high-level alchemists fail when refining mid-level Blood Recovery Pills. This is why, although the Blood Recovery Pill is only a mid-level pill, it is twice as expensive as many high-level pills!

All six people held the bottles of pills, feeling both flattered and disappointed, and sighed deeply.

Both being students of the Royal Academy, they were not only noble alchemists, but also the only contract master in the Tenglong Continent for thousands of years. They had no desire to compete with each other, only admiration.

Ruohan's eyes flickered, his resolve to follow Feng Jiutian growing stronger. So what if he was the heir of the Ruo family? In any case, he wouldn't need to inherit the family business for the time being; improving his strength was the most important thing.

Feng Jiutian tapped the table to remind him, "Snap out of it. It's just a mid-grade pill. There will be more in the future."

At the same time, he sighed inwardly.

Thankfully, she hadn't taken out the high-grade Blood-Fighting Pill, otherwise things would have turned upside down. However, she wasn't very proficient in high-grade alchemy techniques yet, and she couldn't understand the pill formulas on the Void Spirit Cauldron. But the pill formulas and alchemy methods from Gu Luo's place were recorded very clearly...
