Chapter 1729 Helian Qiguang Came Again (2)
As soon as Du He said this, Helian Qiguang's already bad expression instantly darkened.
Lu Zijia, on the other hand, smiled. "Thank you, Dean. You're really a good person."
"Since you think I'm a good person, you little fox, don't trick me again in the future." Du He took a sip of tea and said a bit angrily.
Lu Zijia touched her ears guiltily, but said, "Dean, you're wrong. Our deal has always been mutually beneficial."
"Really?" Du He put down the teacup in his hand and glared at Lu Zijia with his old eyes.
Lu Zijia blinked and nodded very sincerely with a harmless look. "Yeah!"
Seeing that the two of them were chatting as if nothing had happened and completely ignored him, Helian Qiguang was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth.
"Lu Zijia, Mu Tianyan, I'm here to discuss the Wood Spirit Fruit and the array formation with you!" Helian Qiguang suddenly said, interrupting the conversation that Lu Zijia and Du He wanted to continue.
"Wood Spirit Fruit?"
Lu Zijia raised her eyebrows in pretended surprise. "You suddenly left last time. I thought you didn't want it anymore! I don't have many Wood Spirit Fruits on me to begin with. I've used up a lot of them in the past month or so."
A sharp glint flashed through Helian Qiguang's eyes. "Then how many Wood Spirit Fruits do you have left?"
Lu Zijia seemed to think seriously for a while before saying a bit regretfully, "I only have 16 Wood Spirit Fruits left in my hand, so I can only give five to the Alchemy Department."
Last time, there were twenty fruits. This time, it directly decreased to five. Helian Qiguang's face instantly turned green.
If it weren't for the fact that she was sure that no one poisoned Helian Qiguang, Lu Zijia would have thought that he was poisoned!
"Impossible, you still had more than 50 pills last time. How can you only have 16 pills left all of a sudden? You're lying to me!"
Helian Qiguang didn't believe what Lu Zijia said at all. He only thought that Lu Zijia was playing with him on purpose or raising the price on purpose!
Lu Zijia spread out her hands helplessly. "You already said it was last time. It's been more than a month since last time. You can do a lot of things in a month. Besides, if it weren't for the fact that the Alchemy Division deliberately targeted the Martial Arts Department and made it impossible for the students of the Martial Arts Department to exchange for pills, there would be no need for me to open the furnace every day to refine pills! Coupled with the fact that my success rate isn't high, the chances of using the Wood Spirit Fruit will naturally increase. I didn't have a choice. Senior Brother Helian, don't you think so?"
Lu Zijia deliberately mentioned the Alchemy Department suppressing the Martial Arts Department to let Helian Qiguang know that not only did the Alchemy Department fail to suppress the Martial Arts Department, they also shot themselves in the foot.
As expected, Helian Qiguang's expression became even uglier. His face turned white, which was very fun to watch.
The Martial Arts Department was different from before. Afraid that it would backfire, Helian Qiguang didn't dare to use the Alchemy Department to oppress Lu Zijia like last time.
"Alright, five Wood Spirit Fruits it is. Give it to me quickly!" Helian Qiguang directly reached out and hated Lu Zijia, but didn't mention the price at all.
Lu Zijia smiled mockingly at Helian Qiguang's matter-of-fact attitude.
"Senior Brother Helian, we haven't even discussed the price. Aren't you a bit too anxious?"
Lu Zijia supported her chin with one hand and took a sip of tea with the other, showing no intention of taking out the Wood Spirit Fruits at all.
