Chapter 1220 Mother’s Things
When Zhi Xuan left the General's Mansion, Zhu Yijun chased him. Among the entire Zhu family, Zhi Xuan was the only one who had a good impression of him.
Zhu Yijun sighed and said: "Xiaoye, the old man and the eldest brother can't help themselves. Don't blame them."
"I don't blame them, I just feel that the entire Zhu family is too impersonal and I feel unworthy of my mother."
Zhi Xuan said lightly.
Zhu Yijun didn't defend himself. Even from his point of view, he felt the same way, but after all, he was a member of the Zhu family, so it was hard to say anything.
He quickly took out an iron box from his pocket, handed it over and said: "This is something left by your mother. She has not returned to Zhu's house for more than ten years. Now I will give these to you and keep them for her." "
"Mother's things?"
Zhi Xuan took the iron box over and saw a mechanical lock on it, which had to be opened using a special method.
Even if he opens his spiritual eyes, he can't see through what's inside.
"good."
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "Before her accident, she went back to Zhu's house once and secretly gave this iron box to me for safekeeping. It never appeared again. I guess the Xuantian Alliance chief helm is dealing with you. Parents, it should be related to this thing."
"What?"
Zhi Xuan was stunned.
Yun Chuanjun once said at the beginning that the senior leaders of the Xuantian Alliance were jealous of his father's talent and were afraid of threatening their status, so they killed his father.
Is there a hidden secret here?
He told Zhu Yijun his doubts, but the latter shook his head, "The Xuantian Alliance is as strong as the clouds. The chief helmsman at least has the strength of the Immortal King, and the rest of the senior officials are also comparable to the Immortal King. How can they be afraid of it?" A talent in the Nascent Soul Realm is just a cover.
The original pursuit was most likely related to this iron box, otherwise your mother would not have told me to keep it safe. Over the years, I have not dared to disclose it to anyone. Now that you have appeared, you finally let me Let go of this burden. "
"So that's it."
Only then did Zhi Xuan remember that Wu Pan and Fatty who appeared in the secret realm had equally unfathomable strength.
They should belong to the higher-ups of the Xuantian Alliance. Such people would indeed not put a Yuanying Heavenly Lord in their eyes, let alone be afraid of a Yuanying Realm talent.
I couldn't help but hold the iron box in my hand tightly.
Zhu Yijun continued: "Your mother has not come back for so many years, and her previous room has been put on hold. This portrait was painted by her when she was young. Please keep it in mind."
Looking at the portrait that was handed over, Zhi Xuan's eyes turned red. The woman in the portrait was very simple. Although she didn't have any makeup, it could not hide her peerless beauty.
It is Zhi Xuan’s mother, Zhu Qingya.
He had never seen his mother's face since he was a child, and he never expected that the first time he saw her would be a portrait.
And I saw it from other people’s hands.
"Thank you, second uncle."
In the entire imperial city, Zhu Yijun is probably the only relative that Zixuan recognizes.
Zhu Yijun smiled lightly, "Actually, the one who loves you the most in the entire Zhu family is your aunt. If she knows that you are back, she will definitely be very happy."
"I still have an aunt?"
"Yes, I will know when I see you later. Please stay in the Imperial City during this period. I will secretly inquire about your mother's news and inform you as soon as there is any news."
"That's all."
Zhi Xuan had just arrived in the imperial city and was unfamiliar with the place. He did not have as many connections as the General's Mansion.
Zhu Yijun suddenly remembered something again and whispered: "Although Xuantian Alliance's chief helmsman's force is not in the imperial city, it is inevitable that their people will pass by here, so during this period, you'd better find a force as a backer. With your strength, although you can’t be a guest, it’s almost the same.”
"I don't need my second uncle to worry about this matter. I have my own plan."
Seeing Zhi Xuan's unconcerned look, Zhu Yijun immediately became anxious and kept admonishing him. He was relieved when the former agreed.
The two chatted for a few more words before leaving. When leaving, Zhu Yijun repeatedly told him to take good care of the iron box.
In fact, there is no need for the other party to tell, Zhi Xuan also knows the importance of the iron box, and carefully puts it into the space ring.
When you know how to open the machine lock later, you can see what's inside.
In the following time, Zhi Xuan wandered around the Imperial City and learned more about the entire Imperial City.
As Zhu Yijun said, if you want to gain a foothold here, you must rely on something. For Zhi Xuan, the biggest reliance is on alchemy.
The entire imperial city has a large area, a large population, and various forces are complex. The alchemists here have the same status as the secret realm.
The only difference is that there are not many alchemists in the secret realm. The most powerful one is the Alchemy Sect's leader Yu Xiaodie, a fourth-grade alchemist.
In the Imperial City, the strongest alchemist has reached the ninth level, and there are even several alchemists with strange fires.
All alchemists who want to be recognized by everyone need to be certified by the Alchemist Guild and issued a badge.
Although Zhi Xuan can refine fourth-grade elixirs, he does not have a badge, and no one here will recognize his existence.
Therefore, you must go to the Alchemist Guild to receive the badge.
Soon, he arrived at the Alchemist Guild.
As soon as I stepped in, I heard a clear voice, "Sir, do you need anything?"
Zhi Xuan looked up and saw a beautiful attendant. She had a sweet smile on her face and looked at him with blinking eyes.
"I want to receive a badge of a fourth-grade alchemist. What is the process required?"
"A fourth-grade alchemist?"
The beauty's face was full of surprise.
Although there were many fourth-grade alchemists in the imperial city, this was the first time she had seen such a young fourth-grade alchemist.
He couldn't help but look at Zhi Xuan twice.
He slowly said: "It's like this. To receive the badge of the fourth-grade alchemist, you need to pay one hundred middle-grade spiritual stones, and then you can get it after taking the assessment. By the way, you also need to provide your third-grade alchemist badge."
"The badge of a third-grade alchemist?"
Zhi Xuan's face was covered with black lines.
Not to mention the badge of a third-grade alchemist, he didn't even have the badge of a first-grade alchemist.
The beauty smiled lightly: "Yes, this is also to prove your identity and then register."
Speaking of this, she suddenly looked at Zhi Xuan and asked with a strange expression: "You don't...don't bring it, do you?"
Zhi Xuan said awkwardly: "Not only did I not bring it, I didn't even have it."
"No?"
The beauty was immediately speechless.
The other party doesn't even have an alchemist's badge, which means that he has not been certified by the Alchemist Guild at all, and maybe he is not even an alchemist.
Now I actually want to directly receive the badge of the fourth-grade alchemist.
Is your heart too big?
Seeing that the beauty was about to drive him out, Zhi Xuan quickly said: "How about I certify the first-grade alchemist's badge first."
