Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!

Chapter 146 - 146 Nie Lin



146 Nie Lin

Hearing Kong Rui’s accusation, the person chuckled. “You don’t even know who I am, but you still sneaked into the Nie family’s residence, so you obviously have ulterior motives!”

“We sneaked in, but we didn’t do anything wrong!” Kong Rui knew that she was being unreasonable, but she was still thinking about how to escape.

That person seemed to find Kong Rui and Chao Bai very interesting and suddenly laughed. “How interesting! I haven’t seen such an interesting person in a long time!”

“Tell me! Why did you enter the Nie family’s residence?” The person asked with a smile.

Kong Rui glanced at Chao Bai. Seeing that Chao Bai was still on guard and had no intention of relaxing, she said again, “Let us go and I’ll tell you!”

The man raised his eyebrows and nodded. “Alright! I can promise you that I’ll let you guys go.”

Kong Rui blinked and asked in surprise, “Are you serious? Are you a man of your word?”

That person chuckled and replied, “I always keep my word!!”

“But… will they listen to you?” Kong Rui looked at the surrounding guards.

Those people realized that something was wrong when they heard the voice of the person in front of them. When they saw the man, they all seemed very respectful.

Presumably, not only was this person’s cultivation level high, but his identity in the Nie family was definitely high as well!

If he was really willing to let them go, at least they would be able to clear this level!

When that person heard Kong Rui’s question, he waved at the surrounding guards. The guards immediately stood quietly at the side to wait.

That person continued, “I’m the First Elder of the Nie family. If I say I can let you guys go, I’ll naturally let you guys go!”

Nie Lin, the Grand Elder of the Nie family?

Kong Rui’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t expect to meet Kong Niang’s sworn enemy today!

However, Nie Lin’s cultivation level was very profound. Even Chao Bai probably wasn’t his match. It probably wouldn’t be so easy to avenge Kong Niang today…

Seeing that Kong Rui remained silent, Nie Lin finally became impatient!

“How is it, little girl? Tell me why you’re here today!” Nie Lin urged.

Kong Rui raised her head gently. The veil ruffled with the wind as she said, “We came to the Nie family’s residence today because we thought that there was a treasure in the Nie family’s residence and wanted to investigate!”

“Treasure?” Nie Lin raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn’t doubt Kong Rui’s words. “What treasure are you talking about that made you come to the Nie family’s residence to search so boldly?”

Kong Rui turned to glance in Chao Bai’s direction. “A material that can be used to make a pill furnace!”

“This brother of mine happened to encounter the Nie family’s carriage on the way and realized that there were materials we had been searching for for a long time on the carriage, so we rashly barged into the Nie family’s residence!” Kong Rui said half-truthfully.

Nie Lin seemed to be in a good mood. He continued to stare at Kong Rui and asked, “Do you guys need this material that much?”

Kong Rui lowered her eyes slightly and spoke again after a while. “Because my master is seriously ill, he urgently needs to refine a top-grade pill. Unfortunately, the pill furnaces in this world are too low-grade and can’t refine pills, so the two of us took the risk and came to steal the treasure.”

“You’re alchemists?” Nie Lin’s voice suddenly rose. He sounded very excited.

Kong Rui noticed Nie Lin’s abnormal reaction and said, “We know a little about alchemy.”

Kong Rui thought to herself, “Since Chao Bai could imitate the prescription of the Poison Master to make medicine, he should be good at alchemy, right?”

In any case, it wasn’t so easy to escape now. Perhaps, if they guessed Nie Lin’s thoughts, they might be able to escape!
