Chapter 524: Arriving in Angel

it properly. As someone forced here, if I don't show any resistance or conflict, they'll become suspicious and wary. I need to give them a process of brainwashing me, so they feel a sense of accompli...As Shang-Chi listened to his daughter's clear and concise explanation, the smile on his face slowly faded, replaced by a serious expression. After hearing what Leia had to say, he paced back and forth twice before speaking directly:

"Leia, have Grey return what you're holding. His beast can save a lot of time. In the meantime, stay in Ang Town with Lian and spend some time together to strengthen your bond."

Leia nodded after hearing this, then said somewhat helplessly:

"Father, through this incident, my impression of Lian has completely changed. He is very excellent and intelligent, even exceeding my expectations."

"Oh, it seems my little daughter is pleased with the man she's chosen to marry." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Shang Ge said with a grin.

"Oh no! I messed this up, I got rejected!"

Leia smiled wryly.

"How could this go wrong"

Shang-Chi immediately asked.

Leia didn't hide anything from her father and told him about what happened during her time at the Rhodemans' house.

"Leia, your father only brought up the marriage proposal because of his friendship with Connor. The decision is entirely yours, and Connor feels the same way. That's why you were both arranged to go on this training expedition together. The purpose is to allow you to get to know each other fully."

But you made the wrong judgment without truly understanding Lian's situation, and even tried to incite internal conflict between the two brothers of the Rhoden family. You did wrong in this matter.

Shang-Chi sternly criticized his daughter.

"Father, I was wrong!"

Leia admitted her mistake very readily.

What should we do next

"Lotus already has a bad first impression of you, and changing that won't happen overnight. You'd better perform well in the upcoming trials and turn her opinion around. Through long-term interaction, as long as you don't do anything to offend her again, things should change."

Leia nodded repeatedly in agreement, and after closing the magic circle, she handed Greyson the crystal vial sealed with gray threads, asking him to run an errand.

Grey was very willing. He had always thought this thing was too dangerous, and every time Miss researched it, he felt a shiver of fear. Sending the thing back to the Hani family removed a bit of the danger.

"Miss Leia, please rest assured that I will return as soon as possible. In the meantime, please act with Young Master Lian."

"I got it, Grey! Don't waste any time, get going!"

Leia said with a smile.

Grey was very steady. After putting the crystal bottle into his belt space, he went to the Apothecary Association and told Raje they had found a place to stay. He also explained that he needed to leave for a few days and hoped they could help look after Leia. Raje readily agreed; anyway, they weren't leaving Angtown temporarily, so there wasn't much danger.

Here, ripples are making a stir at the Apothecary Association. The cause is a nobleman dragging a man in a grey robe to the Apothecary Association to file a complaint.

The noble man was two meters tall, wearing a golden robe and a golden plaque around his waist that symbolized his status. In his hand, he held a boy who was 1.85 meters tall. The gray robe the boy wore should have been white, but it had turned gray because it hadn't been washed in a long time.

"I'm going to report this pharmacist. He gave me medication that hasn't been fully vetted, and it almost killed me!"

The boy being led by the collar had hair as black as ripples. At this time, he helplessly patted the man's hand and said in a gentle tone:

"Lord Rice, please let go. We have arrived at the Alchemist's Association. Are you still afraid I will run away"

Rice looked at the onlookers and realized that the boy couldn't escape, so he let go. He then turned to the vice president, whose face was somewhat aged, and said:

"Mr. Moody, please revoke his apothecary license! He used me as a test subject for his potions!"

Moody looked at the somewhat familiar-looking boy in front of him, racking his brains. Then, as if he remembered something, he let out a sigh and said:

"Very well, Lord Rice. I accept your complaint and hereby revoke Raoul Muse's apothecary license."

After he finished speaking, a gasp of astonishment arose from the onlookers. The exception was Rice, who had made the accusation, and only the young man whose name had been revealed remained composed. He calmly removed the silver badge from his waist and presented it respectfully to Moody.

Moody took the silver plaque, saying in a resigned tone:

"Raul, if you keep this up, the head of the house will spank you."

"Ahem, Mr. Moody, although the potion I gave Lord Rice is newly formulated, it's very effective. It has taken him from a portly, oily old man back to his most charismatic age. This proves my potion is a success."

Raul gave a lighthearted explanation.

Those watching the commotion were not deaf, and they had all heard what was said. They looked towards Rice and discovered that this calm and handsome nobleman was unlike the Rice they had imagined before. He seemed to have truly returned to his prime.

Rice, after hearing Moody's Vice Chairman's words, rolled her eyes directly.

Because the Muse family is the first among pharmacists, not everyone in the family is necessarily blood relatives. As long as they pass the family test, they can join the Muse family and take the surname Muse, enjoying the glory of the Muse family.

The Muff family has existed for over a thousand years, and very few people have been able to pass the test and join the Muff family. Raul Muff is one of them, and he's the only underage one.

Moody shook his head, not wanting to hear Raul's explanation. He simply sealed away his badge and turned to the crowd, saying:

"Everyone's gone! Do whatever you want and get out of here."

Rice pursed his lips and ultimately said nothing more. He knew when to quit, turned around, and strode out of the Alchemist's Guild.

The ripples had just passed, and with a smile, she approached Raul:

"Wasn't your potion very potent, causing Lord Rice to have a rather embarrassing incident That must be why he came to the Alchemist's Guild to file a complaint."

Raul turned his head to look at Rin, whose hair was black as night and whose eyes were purple like amethyst. His gaze flickered for a moment before he smiled, his eyebrows curving upwards as he said:

It's nothing, I just made him poop and fart for three days straight. He stunk all over for three days, so he lost face in front of his goddess. That's why he's taking revenge on me!

"But it doesn't matter anyway, at least it proves that my potions are successful!"

“Indeed, after detoxification, I see that his appearance and physique have recovered to their peak condition!”

The ripples continued to chat.

In her view, Lord Rice should have achieved the effect of washing the marrow and cutting the tendons through taking potions, so although she was angry, she only filed a complaint with the Alchemist's Association and did not take any extreme actions.

"Didn't expect you to know about potions either, did we"

Raul came interested, and immediately asked.

"I only know some theoretical knowledge, and I can handle basic potion brewing, but that's about it."

"Are you more of a mage or a knight"

Raul asked.

"I'm familiar with some things, but I'm not very proficient in any of them. I haven't decided on a final direction yet."

Ripples finished speaking and summoned her lotus magic staff. She lightly tapped Raoul's hair with it, and his black hair instantly turned auburn.

"I think this hair color still suits you."send Ripple to the SFWL satellite, and then he hid, waiting quietly.As the silver escape pod carrying Ripples descended, the garrison on SFWL planet detected it immediately. A squad of soldiers drivin...
