"Irene, what's wrong with you breaking into my Earl's Mansion late at night?" Duke Botu tentatively tentatively. He couldn't afford to offend the woman in front of him. After all, she dared to threaten the arrogant alchemist with force. Obviously, she wouldn't have any concerns just because she was the Duke. She really angered her and would definitely take action.
Hearing, Erin blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "You should ask yourself this. I heard some rumors. I heard that you seem to want to hit my apprentice with a bad idea. In fact, you should thank me. I am afraid that you will do something stupid, so I came here to remind you in advance."
"Your apprentice? Erin, have you misunderstood something? Who did you hear from me that I want to deal with that girl Flora?" Duke Botu looked puzzled. Flora's mentor was Erin. Anyone with the senior officials of the empire knew about this matter. With this god of killing behind him, who would dare to touch a hair of Flora at will?
Erin sarcastically said, "What? You don't know that I have two apprentices? I'm not talking about Flora, but another one."
"One other disciple..." Duke Botu was stunned and hesitated. "I have never heard of this. When did you have an extra disciple?"
Duke Botu was extremely confused about this second apprentice. As far as he knew, Irene was used to being free and did not accept apprentices at all. Otherwise, with Irene's reputation, a large number of people would be willing to give their children to her for guidance.
However, beyond everyone's expectations, Irene has accepted an apprentice in recent years, which is the only apprentice she has ever accepted in her life! What was unexpected again was that Irene's only apprentice in her life, and her field of learning was not in the magic practice she was best at, but in the alchemy that was 100,000 miles away!
In terms of talent, Flora is definitely an alchemy genius, and she may not be able to see it normally, but in fact, she is a well-known figure among the young alchemists of the Lieyang Empire. After learning that such a genius was actually Erin's apprentice, many alchemists felt sorry.
Of course, no matter how regretful it is, but if they give them a hundred courages, they dare not dig up Erin's corner.
"Hmph, that's just that you are ignorant and don't know. I have two apprentices since the beginning." Erin snorted lightly and lie without changing her face. In fact, Liu Zhe was the apprentice she had just accepted in recent days.
However, she still plans to show off her name in the future, so she will naturally not tell the truth at this time. When she goes out in the future, she just needs to say that Liu Zhe’s alchemy is her own guidance and cultivation, and see which of the alchemy masters dares to praise their disciples in front of her.
"Do you have other disciples?" Duke Botu was stunned, and at this moment, his heart began to think quickly, Aileen's disciple, the dean of Tianyou Academy, and his recent series of actions...
Collecting the clues one by one, Duke Botu immediately thought of a possibility. He immediately looked stunned and murmured: "No, no...?"
Isn’t Liu Zhe the one he wants to deal with is a student of Tianyou Academy?
A bad premonition hovered in my heart, Duke Botu gritted his teeth and tentatively said, "According to what you said, I want to deal with another disciple of yours, so I have to ask...who is your other disciple?"
With his green jade fingers gently lit his chin, Erin took a breath and immediately announced the answer: "His real name is Shiel. If you have never heard of this name, then I will tell you one more thing. He usually calls himself the name "Liu Zhe". How about it? Do you have any impression?"
"…!!!"
Shiel! Liu Zhe!! When these two names fell into Duke Botu's ears, a bolt from the blue suddenly broke out in his heart. Sure enough! It was him!!
While I was shocked, it was worth being happy that the doubts in Duke Botu were also answered at this time.
So that's it! If his mentor is Erin, then as an orphan, he can be promoted from level 5 to level 10 within one year, there is a way to explain this! After all, his mentor Erin is already an absolute monster, and it is not particularly strange to be able to teach a monster-like disciple.
Looking at Erin in front of him, Duke Botu has completely given up on sending people to kill Liu Zhe. Not only that, he also prays that Liu Zhe will ignore it safely every day, otherwise as long as something happens to Liu Zhe, Erin will definitely be the first to doubt her!
As a competent head of the family, Duke Botu made the most correct decision in an instant, saying, "I understand your purpose. I didn't know his identity before. Now that I have learned that this person is your apprentice, I will definitely not make any more decisions for him for your sake."
In a decisive judgment, Duke Botu knew very well that even with the background of their Duke family for several generations, he could not provoke the woman in front of him. It is no exaggeration to say that if he got into trouble, the entire family might be devastated. After all, in this entire Duke Mansion, no one is the opponent of this woman. To be more accurate, let alone his own family, even if he looks at the entire Lieyang Empire, he probably can't find a few people who can compete with the monster Erin.
Even if you sacrifice your son's future, you must not provoke Irene in front of you. Without Rocky, Duke Botu has a daughter, Rona. If you don't help, you can just give birth to another son. Anyway, you can't provoke Irene!
Hearing this, Erin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, Xiao Botu, you are a sensible person. As long as you can remember what you said, I will naturally not be bored to make things difficult for you. Everyone will not break the river."
"..." Hearing Erin's words, Duke Botu just nodded silently and silently, thinking that he was a great emperor, who was usually majestic and famous, but today he was called Xiao Botu. If someone had changed, he would have had a long time ago.
"Okay, time is precious. Since the matter here has been resolved, I have to change my family quickly." Seeing Duke Botu nodding and assured, Erin immediately wanted to leave. As she finished speaking, she couldn't help but sigh and complained in her heart: "Oh... Speaking of which, this apprentice is really damn, so worry-free. I don't know what I'm doing when I'm fine. I just checked and found a lot of enemies. It really... made me run around in the middle of the night."
Hearing what Erin said, Duke Botu began to pity the rest of his "comrades" and didn't know which unlucky guys also pointed their finger at Liu Zhe. They must have been unable to sleep all night tonight.
"Since you have a short time, I won't keep you anymore, go slowly." Duke Botu said politely, but there was no point in his heart to keep him? I wish I could get out now, and it would be better not to come again for the rest of my life!
Erin showed a little devil-like smile and said with a sweet smile: "I'll come to you for tea when I have time. After all, we are all old acquaintances from the same era, so we have to contact each other occasionally."
Why don't you get out of here!──Thinking in my heart, Duke Botu said embarrassedly: "Haha, this is natural! If you have time, you must invite you to sit in the mansion!"
"Oh, I said that, but I don't know how long I have to wait. You also know that I am usually a busy person and don't have much time." Erin shook her head with a regretful expression.
"It's okay, it's okay! Don't worry, just come again when you have time." Duke Botu said, and cursed in his heart: Go ahead! Don't come for the rest of your life!
Afterwards, under the eager expectation of Duke Botu, Erin finally left the Duke's Mansion. Looking at Erin's gradually disappearing figure, Duke Botu was silent in his heart, mourning for those who were about to be found by Erin.
