Hearing that, Du Changqing could only give up and immediately took out a jade token. “Forget it. If there’s a chance, give this token to her.”

Seeing the jade token handed over by his father, Du Yu looked surprised. “Father, isn’t this the token that represents a distinguished guest of the Du family?”

Not only could those with this token mobilize a portion of the Du family’s members, but they could also directly get a 40% discount on their spending in the shops under the Du family.

Countless people outside wanted this token, but her father didn’t give it to them.

“She’s qualified to be a distinguished guest of the Du family,” Du Changqing said.

Du Yu thought for a moment and thought that it made sense, so she took the token. She would give the token to Lu Zijia the next time she saw her.

“I remember there was news two days ago that the Liang family also sent someone to investigate Alchemist Lu in Delin Country?” First Elder Du suddenly changed the topic.

Du Changqing nodded. “That’s right. Our people happened to bump into each other when they came back.”

After hearing Du Changqing’s affirmative answer, First Elder Du and the others looked at each other. In the end, First Elder Du said, “Think of a way to stop the Liang family’s investigation.”

After a pause, First Elder Du added, “Don’t have a huge conflict with them. If we really can’t stop them, try your best to stall for time!”

Du Changqing was first stunned, then he quickly understood the key.

“Elders and Father, do you think that the Liang family in Delin Country is the branch family of the bastard son who was expelled from the Liang family decades ago?”

Third Elder Du said with a serious expression, “It’s very likely.”

Du Changqing frowned slightly. “If that’s the case, the Liang family will definitely try their best to exploit this relationship.” They might even catch the bastard son’s clansmen and threaten Lu Zijia.

They immediately discussed the matter for a while more. While secretly stopping the Liang family from investigating the news, they also asked Du Yu to tell Lu Zijia about this.

Du Yu accepted this mission without hesitation.

Yet, as much as they planned to do so, reality didn’t turn out as they expected.

Ever since Lu Zijia made a name for herself that day, she didn’t give others a chance to come to her door to ask for pills, and directly announced to the public that she was cultivating in seclusion.

This made the cultivators who caught wind of what happened and came to ask for pills so anxious that they spun on the spot.

Many well -informed cultivators knew that Du He had a good relationship with Lu Zijia, their student, so they targeted Du He.

However, before they came to their door, Du He released a huge piece of news, which shocked many people and made them express deep suspicion.

“What? The Du family’s auction house will auction twenty Mystic Golden Core Pills in ten days? How is that possible?”

“It’s true. Those twenty Mystic Golden Core Pills were provided by Dean Du.”

“At first, I also thought it was a mistake, but isn’t that genius Alchemist Lu Dean Du’s student? From this point, the probability of it being true is still very high. ”

“Tsk, tsk, twenty Mystic Golden Core Pills. How generous!”

“In my opinion, the Du family is really lucky. Not counting the seven Mystic Golden Core Pills they picked up for free before, now there are twenty more. Their luck is simply heaven-defying!”

“Right, I thought that it wouldn’t be long before the Du family would be suppressed by the Helian family. I didn’t expect them to make a huge turnaround in the blink of an eye.”

“The Helian family should be anxious now.”

“The two major trading companies of Hongtian City are fighting. I wonder if small fries like us can get some benefits?”

“It would be best if that’s the case.”

The people who were envious and jealous of the Du family didn’t know that Du He didn’t have twenty Mystic Golden Core Pills in his hand, but thirty!
