Supreme Crazy Wife

Chapter 157: A Deal with the First Elder (1)

“Then Big Brother Feng…”

“Miss Leng, don’t worry. This old man won’t force him anymore unless he wants to,” the first elder said very naturally.

“Erm, I have another question. Did Miss Leng refine these pills yourself?” the first elder probed.

“What does First Elder think?” Leng Ruoxue asked with a sweet smile on her face. She believed that the first elder was a smart person and would know what to do.

“I understand,” the first elder said in realization. What a monster! After knowing that Leng Ruoxue was an artificer, he had decided to befriend her. Now, he was even more…

“Miss Leng, our Feng family is willing to become allies with Miss Leng and advance and retreat together in the future,” the first elder continued after a pause. Although he had not discussed this with the patriarch, he believed that the patriarch would definitely agree.

“First Elder, you think too highly of me. I don’t have any forces,” Leng Ruoxue reminded. She didn’t expect the identity of an alchemist to be so useful. Even the second Great Family came knocking on her door to request an alliance. No wonder those alchemists and the like were all so arrogant.

“Miss Leng is too modest.” A few drops of cold sweat dripped down the first elder’s forehead. What other forces did she need? As long as she revealed her identity, many powerhouses would knock on her door.

“First Elder, I’m telling the truth.” Leng Ruoxue really didn’t think she was being humble because after thinking about it, she truly didn’t have any forces other than Feng Da and the others.

“Hehe, regardless of whether Miss Leng has any forces or not, our Feng family is willing to ally with Miss Leng,” the first elder said very understandingly. Great Aunt, this should be enough, right?!

“Since First Elder is so enthusiastic, then Ruoxue will accept. But the patriarch and acting patriarch of the Feng family…” Leng Ruoxue said in puzzlement. She really wanted to know how much power the first elder had.

“Miss Leng, don’t worry. The patriarch trusts me a lot. He won’t object to anything I decide. As for the acting patriarch? He won’t be for long,” the first elder said confidently. He didn’t think much of Feng Xiao to begin with, what more now.

“First Elder, a selfish and sinister person like Feng Xiao will sooner or later be a scourge to the Feng family,” Leng Ruoxue said bluntly after seeing that the first elder was reasonable. But what the first elder would do was not something she could control.

“I know, but he is the eldest son of the patriarch after all. So…” Even if he wanted to get rid of Feng Xiao, he had to have a good reason. Otherwise, the patriarch might not say anything on the surface, but there would definitely be a barrier in his heart. It would be disadvantageous for the Feng family’s development and not what he wanted to see.

“It’s the Feng family’s fortune to have someone like First Elder in the Feng family,” Leng Ruoxue praised. This old man really does everything for the Feng family wholeheartedly, and he doesn’t even have any selfish motives.

“Miss Leng truly thinks too highly of me, haha.” The first elder smiled modestly, not minding it at all.

“First Elder, this is for you.” Leng Ruoxue thought for a while, then took out two green pills and handed them to the first elder. This old man was quite to her liking. Moreover, since the two families were going to ally, then this old man could also be considered one of them.

“What is this?” The first elder was a little skeptical as he received the two translucent green pills. What rich spiritual energy!

“Green spirit pills!” Leng Ruoxue explained.

“Green spirit pills! For spirit beasts?” The first elder’s eyes widened as he stared at Leng Ruoxue in disbelief.

Although humans could also consume green spirit pills, the effects were not as good as spirit beasts consuming them. Moreover, even though green spirit pills were not difficult to concoct, the green spirit fruits used to concoct them were extremely difficult to find. Alas! Now I know why Moran has a divine beast. Leng Ruoxue is truly full of surprises. Seems like my decision was right.

“Yes, I heard First Elder has a level nine holy beast.” Leng Ruoxue nodded.

“Hehe, thank you, Miss Leng, on behalf of Sparrow Feather,” the first elder said gratefully. He was even happier than when he advanced to Spiritual Supremacy. Leng Ruoxue is truly my benefactor. The first elder couldn’t help sighing in his heart.

“First Elder, remember to find a deserted place to advance,” Leng Ruoxue teased.

“Hehe, this old man knows.” He didn’t want to make it known to everyone like General Leng.

“Oh right, First Elder, it’s best not to let anyone know about our alliance,” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.

“Okay, I understand,” the first elder said understandingly. It seemed like Leng Ruoxue wanted to keep a low profile. But there were some things that were destined to be impossible to keep a low profile.

In fact, he was mistaken. Leng Ruoxue wasn’t trying to keep a low profile. She wanted to pretend to be weak to eat tigers.

“First Elder, I’ve completed my task. I’ll take my leave first,” Leng Ruoxue said after looking at the time. It was almost noon, and she was hungry.

“Miss Leng, it’s almost noon. You have to stay for lunch!” The first elder urged her to stay.

“First Elder, there’s no need to be so polite. All the major families are eyeing me covetously now. If I really stay, I’m afraid it will bring trouble to the Feng family,” Leng Ruoxue said jokingly.

“Uh, in that case, I won’t force Miss Leng. I’ll see…” Before the first elder could finish, Leng Ruoxue interrupted him.

“First Elder, I’m here to look for Big Brother Feng.”

“Uh, alright then!” The first elder knew that he was being despised and was depressed. You had to know how much face he would be giving her to see her out! But…

Leng Ruoxue left the first elder’s room and looked at Freak and Feng Moran guarding the door. “Big Brother Feng, the matter has been resolved.”

“Freak, let’s go back!”

“Okay.”

“Xue’er, did you agree to the first elder’s condition?” Feng Moran couldn’t help asking. Alas! I really didn’t want Xue’er to worry about me…

“No, I just made a deal with him,” Leng Ruoxue explained simply.

“What deal?” Feng Moran asked quickly. He knew that this had happened. Otherwise, the first elder wouldn’t have relented.

“It’s a simple deal. Big Brother Feng, it’s not what you think. Don’t worry!” Leng Ruoxue comforted him. This deal was indeed not difficult for her.
