Chapter 233 Queen Bee
Alan invited the mother and daughter into the house and sat down.
At the same time, a quarrel suddenly broke out in the courtyard separated by a wall!
The quarrel became more and more intense and soon turned into a fight.
Alan and Caroline turned a deaf ear to the conflict next door, acting as if everything was normal.
Spanna winked at her sister, stuck out her tongue, and pretended not to hear.
Caroline took the hot tea offered by Alan and took a sip.
He put down the teacup and shook his head gently.
"If you add sugar to high-quality black tea, you lose its rich flavor and it becomes shallow and vulgar."
"Mom! This is just a matter of your personal taste, right?"
Spanna didn't know whether she wanted to help Allen ease the embarrassment or whether she was always like this in front of her mother and just said whatever she wanted to say.
"In fact, most people add some sugar to their black tea to taste, and some add milk or lemon juice!"
Caroline rolled her eyes at her little daughter and said calmly:
"I'm afraid those people you're talking about haven't had any good tea."
“In fact, only black tea of average quality needs to be flavored.”
"You shouldn't add these messy condiments to the top-quality black tea. Otherwise, it would be a waste of good things . It's the way barbarians drink it."
"Auntie is right. It's my poor . I will need your advice in the future."
Alan took over the conversation and used a "seasoning technique" to eliminate the sweetness in the Spider Queen's teacup.
Caroline sipped her tea again, a smile forming on her lips.
"You, kid, are gifted in being knowledgeable, interesting, and considerate. No one can match you."
He put down the teacup, turned to his eldest daughter and said:
"Aslan, his appearance, family background, and cultivation are all good, but his interest is a little lacking, he can't compare to Alan."
"So when it comes to popularity with women, the noble son of the Blue Dragon family is not necessarily better than the clever boy from the bottom of society!"
"Your sister likes this boy. If you can't figure it out and get angry, it's your own problem."
Spencer was already very annoyed by being teased by her mother in front of outsiders.
What made him even more depressed was that his mother actually compared Alan with her boyfriend!
Spenza was so angry that she was going crazy!
How can Alan, a smooth-talking, spineless gigolo, be compared with the upright and proud Aslan?
Aslan just doesn't like to say sweet words and doesn't bother to think of ways to please women. What's wrong with that?
If Aslan, who is upright, self-respecting, slow to speak but quick to act, is not as popular as Alan, a playboy with a smooth tongue, in relationships between men and women, it is definitely not Aslan's fault!
What’s wrong is the world and the bad atmosphere of today!
Spencer couldn't contain her anger and blushed as she defended her boyfriend.
"Mother, please forgive me for being blunt!"
"A real man should not only do superficial things, but also have good character!"
"How can Alan's character be compared to Aslan's?"
"It's clear at first glance that this boy is a traitor!"
"You're wrong!" Spanna interrupted her sister, "Alan is not a traitor, he is... a jester!"
It's a rare opportunity to correct my top student sister, and she's so proud of herself!
Spenza ignored her sister and continued to fire at Alan.
"I didn't accept my defeat in the battle at the mushroom garden!"
"Do you dare to fight me again?"
"If you lose, give me back what you stole!"
"No need to, I give up." Alan said with a wry smile.
Spencer curled her lips in disdain, turned her head and said to her mother and sister: "What did I say? This kid is a spineless person!"
"Spencer, that's enough!"
Spanna couldn't stand it anymore and her face darkened.
"There are some things that Alan cannot say to save your face."
"Can you please have a little self-awareness?"
"Back in the mushroom garden, you and Alan were both in the late fourth stage, but you were still beaten by him and cried."
"Now Allen's cultivation has reached the early fifth stage, and you are still standing still. Where do you get the courage to challenge him?"
"Fifth, fifth level...?!"
Spenza was stunned.
His face turned red and white, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
As a host, it is always bad to put your guests in an awkward position.
Alan opened the storage bag and took out the silver sword, sapphire dagger, and the "heart amulet" he got from Marvin.
"Spansha, thank you for lending me your weapon. It was a great help when I was dealing with a strong enemy before."
"I will return the silver sword. As for this dagger... I really like it so much that I can't bear to return it to its original owner."
"Can we make a deal? I'll exchange this amulet that can block mental attacks below level five for your magic dagger?"
Spenza was stunned for a moment, her face hesitant.
“I think this deal is a good one.”
Caroline held a teacup and smiled as she gave her eldest daughter advice.
"Silent Dagger. I can make another one for you later."
"A fifth-level heart amulet. The enchantment process is much more difficult than a dagger. It costs more and has a wider range of uses."
"Alan made a loss by trading with you as a favor. You should not bother about the grudges in the mushroom garden in the future."
After being enlightened by her mother, Spencer thought about it and came up with a work-around.
"Alan! You give my sister the sapphire dagger and the heart amulet in exchange for her ruby dagger, and my sister gives me the heart amulet."
“Why all the fuss?”
"It's because you're known for your promiscuous relationships! If I trade directly with you, I'm afraid people will misunderstand me!"
"Is my reputation that bad?"
Alan touched his nose, looking innocent.
"You do have a bad reputation in my sister's circle of prudish ladies."
Spanna took over the conversation with a smile.
"But in the hot girl circle I hang out in, my reputation is really good!"
Alan nodded, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, so he asked Caroline:
"Auntie, do you belong to the lady circle or the hot girl circle?"
"I'm not interested in little girls' circles." Caroline rolled her eyes at him. "My social circle only consists of noble ladies and talented women."
"It suits your temperament very well," Alan said sincerely.
Caroline smiled slightly, seeming to enjoy it.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get down to business."
Caroline opened her storage bag and took out a prescription and various medicinal herbs.
Alan took the prescription and guessed that this was the ingredient list of the second-stage anti-aging agent.
The reason why he didn't dare to make a conclusion was that he couldn't be sure whether Caroline had tampered with the prescription.
There are many ambiguities in the prescription.
Caroline had no intention of explaining, but only promised that she would handle the relevant steps personally and there would be absolutely no mistakes.
Alan understood immediately.
The Spider Queen does have a hidden trick.
This is normal, after all, he has his own secrets.
Alan didn't care about Caroline's tricks.
Once the potion is refined, he can use the special ability of the venom gland to reverse analyze the potion formula.
By then it will be clear and Caroline won't be able to hide it even if she wants to.
Putting down the prescription, Alan then checked the herbs Caroline had prepared in advance.
The quantity of each medicinal ingredient is sufficient, and if there is no waste, it is more than enough to refine twenty finished potions.
However, this seems impossible to the Spider Queen.
Refining medicine is too difficult and the material scrap rate is extremely high.
With twenty portions of medicinal materials, Alan was able to refine two second-level anti-aging agents, which would be a great success!
After all, if she were to do it herself, she wouldn't be able to refine even one.
Alan checked all the herbs carefully.
During this period, two system prompts were received.
Alan remained calm.
While rubbing the medicinal materials to check the quality, he also bit his fingers as if nothing had happened.
Caroline saw his childish action and frowned slightly.
She also knew that biting fingers was a common habit among children.
So much so that even after becoming adults, some people are unable to break this habit.
For ordinary people, this is not a serious bad habit.
But as a pharmacist, it seems so unprofessional!
Pharmacists often deal with poisonous medicinal herbs. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if they accidentally ingested toxins when biting their fingers?
If I remind him in person, it will inevitably embarrass the young man.
Caroline thought for a moment, took out a pair of thin and soft leather gloves and handed them to Alan.
“When handling medicinal materials, it is best to wear gloves to avoid mixing in impurities.”
"Oh, thank you for the reminder, Auntie!"
Alan felt a little embarrassed, so he put on gloves and stopped biting his fingers.
At the same time, two system prompts came one after another.
"Eat special ingredients: Smiley Mushroom!"
"Potential +2!"
"Agility +1!"
"Eat special ingredients: Dragon Turtle Kidney!"
"Potential +3!"
"Physique +1!"
…
Current attributes: 48 physique, 33 agility, 54 spirit
Potential reserve: 18 points
…
In the pharmacy, Alan and the Spider Queen exchanged alchemy skills and had a very pleasant conversation.
In the courtyard separated by a wall, the confrontation between Angie and the uninvited guest has come to a decisive moment.
Fighting spirit turns into a network!
Fighting spirit turns into a network!
In the air in the courtyard, two large nets of fighting spirit were entangled with each other.
Angel has started the fourth level of atavism and transformed into a cat-eared bee girl.
Her pretty face was solemn, and she was concentrating on remotely controlling the fighting spirit net.
Opposite her stood a half-man, half-bee man in a yellow robe.
The handsome face turned into and its pair of compound eyes revealed a look of shame and annoyance.
Grisha, the elder of the Beast Cult, originally regarded Eren as his imaginary enemy.
As for Sora and Angel, mother and daughter, he didn't take them seriously at first.
I thought that I could easily subdue the mother and daughter with one move and force Alan to come forward.
The result surprised him!
After not seeing each other for many years, Sora's cultivation level has risen to the late third level.
This realm exceeded his expectations.
In his early impression, Sora, who was born into a declining family, was just a woman with mediocre qualifications.
Logically speaking, the late stage of the second stage is Sora's limit.
Today, I found that Sora's warlock bloodline has evolved from a thorn spirit to a high-level thorn spirit.
The strength of the late third stage is not bad, but not enough to make him afraid.
In fact, since arriving at Silver Moon Island, Sora has spent most of his energy dealing with internal affairs.
Alan's various businesses, including the New Gwent Town, the Martial Arts School, the Panthers Dungeon, the Swan Cave, and the Naga Mine on Moon Watching Island...there are a huge amount of affairs to deal with every day.
Alan was too lazy to deal with the chores himself, so he left it all to Teacher Sora.
Sora was busy from morning till night. Apart from routine meditation, he had no time to practice, let alone go into seclusion in a secret realm.
It is not easy to reach the late third stage.
In contrast, Angie, who was fully focused on her training, made such rapid progress that Grisha was truly shocked!
When he sent two disciples to cause trouble, An Qi's cultivation was only at the late second level.
It has only been three short years. Even if Angel has been practicing in the Silver Moon Secret Realm, her cultivation level is at most the early stage of the fourth level.
Until the two sides had a disagreement and started fighting.
Grisha was surprised to find that his biological daughter had the same cultivation level as himself, also in the late fourth stage!
Both sides activated their ancestral forms, and it was difficult to tell who would win.
Grisha couldn't help but get angry!
He used all his strength to remotely control the fighting net to cover An Qi, capture her alive and end this humiliating duel.
Angel refused to give in and also focused on controlling the fighting spirit net.
Two invisible nets were entangled in mid-air, pulling at each other.
The drizzle swayed left and right and rolled up and down as the fighting spirit net pulled it, like a curtain blown by the wind.
The invisible and fierce confrontation taking place in the air is presented in an indirect yet intuitive way.
The two fighting nets were stretched to their limits and were on the verge of collapse.
Grisha and Angie made similar moves at the same time!
Fighting spirit explodes!
Thunderous explosion wave!
Two violent magical powers were transmitted along the fighting spirit threads.
Finally, they met in the air, colliding with a terrifying explosion.
Boom!
The roar was deafening, like thunder.
A large area of the rain curtain in the sky was evaporated in an instant, turning into white mist.
Sora stood against the wall, his fingers holding the umbrella turning slightly white.
As the thunder roared, the heart twitched violently!
He peered through the white mist, anxiously searching for his daughter.
The strong wind blew away the mist, and two figures reappeared.
Angel was shocked by the violent magic power transmitted back by the fighting spirit thread, and she took three steps back, her face losing color.
The stubborn girl bit her lower lip tightly and moved her hands to weave a dense web of fighting spirit again.
A hundred feet away on the opposite side, Grisha also took a step back to absorb the impact of the explosion.
The raised pale golden compound eyes flickered.
The head-on confrontation has shown that An Qi is young after all and her skills are not as profound as his.
However, the gap between the two sides is not that big.
If he keeps fighting like this, he might just win in the end.
However, Grisha could not accept such an ugly victory!
If we can't capture Angel quickly and decisively, how can we have the face to stay in the Beast Cult in the future!
Grisha took a deep breath, and suddenly golden light appeared around him.
"My Lord Rhea, please grant me divine grace!"
Grisha raised his arms to the sky and prayed loudly.
The body then exploded and turned into a sky full of wasps.
With the blessing of divine power, the bee colony undergoes a mutation!
Every wasp that was the size of a thumb became as big as a griffin!
A swarm of giant bees, buzzing and roaring!
Rushing towards the petite cat-eared girl from all directions!
Angel remained calm, waving her hands quickly and spreading an invisible fighting spirit net to catch all the bees in one fell swoop.
"Fighting Qi Turned into Net" is the bloodline inheritance of the Beast Worship Cult.
Angel was able to master this move because she inherited Grisha's bee-man bloodline.
Grisha is also proficient in this skill, so how could he not know how to break it?
Just as the huge net was about to fall, the giant bees suddenly shrank collectively.
From a body length of four meters, it shrunk to less than an inch, easily passing through the fighting spirit net and approaching Angel.
The swarm will incarnated by Grisha roared in ecstasy with the sound of buzzing wings.
Countless poisonous bees raised their stingers and mercilessly stabbed the girl's tender skin.
However, in the next second...
A sneer appeared at the corner of An Qi's lips.
The girl suddenly raised her left hand.
A round of moonlight appeared in the palm of my hand.
The Moon Shadow Bomb, which had been accumulating energy for a long time, suddenly exploded!
Swish!
In the rainy courtyard, the moonlight suddenly appears!
The surrounding bee swarms, illuminated by the bright moonlight, seemed to be poured with a bucket of boiling water, and they immediately screamed and began to writhe.
The beast transformation and ancestral form were all sealed in an instant.
The swarm regrouped, revealing Grisha's terrified face.
An Qi waved her right hand, and a fighting spirit net fell from the sky.
Grisha, who was forced to transform back into human form, was entangled tightly.
Then, violent magic power was transmitted along the silk thread.
Gathered inside the net, they exploded violently!
Thunder Explosion Wave!!
By the time the explosion subsided, Grisha had been blown to pieces.
He lay horizontally in the courtyard, his body covered with bruises from the rain, and a scarlet patch of blood beneath him.
Angie raised her hand and pointed at the dying Grisha.
With one final blow, he could completely wipe out this despicable man from his and his mother's lives!
In the girl's eyes, resentment and anger alternately appeared, and finally turned into contempt.
"You are worse than pigs and dogs! Killing you will dirty my hands!"
An Qi spat out a word coldly towards Grisha.
"roll!!"
The girl's angry shout frightened Grisha.
He suppressed his shame and anger and crawled towards the gate with difficulty.
Suddenly, an extremely strong wave of magical power arose in the air!
The "Anywhere Door" opened, and a beautiful young woman in a yellow robe walked out in the air with her hands behind her back.
Grisha raised his head from the mud.
When his eyes fell on the young woman in yellow, he was immediately filled with surprise.
A hoarse
"Lady Weiss!"
