In the Soul Liquid House in Navia City, the previous store manager left due to certain reasons, and the position of store manager has been vacant for the time being. So Bernard took the opportunity to promote a deputy store manager and tried to interfere in this branch store. Fortunately, Emily noticed it in time and quickly arranged for someone to come and restrain him. Therefore, things are quite troublesome in this branch of the "Soul Liquid House" now, and it has also affected the production of the Soul Liquid House this year.

"That bastard Bernard is really a brute." Albert couldn't help cursing in his heart. In the past, he didn't pay much attention to it, but now when he suddenly needed a large amount of funds, he found himself restricted everywhere. Only then did he realize how much trouble that ungrateful Bernard had brought him.

Otherwise, with the whole Martin family united as one nowadays, the funds he could use wouldn't be just the three hundred thousand or so in Navia Ci

    Walking all the way here and after doing some visiting, Anna led the two of them to the place where she worked, which was her refining room. "Sister Cherry, you didn't just come here to have a look, did you?" When they arrived here, Anna took off her long coat, revealing a simple outfit inside that outlined her slender and graceful curves. Her eyes turned to the refining table, and it was obvious that her mind had drifted to it. "It's because of the Young Master." Cherry said with a smile, "He wants to learn about Spiritual Light Masters." Anna looked over in confusion and said, "Isn't he..." She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning in her words was already quite clear. Didn't Albert have no soul? What was the point of learning about Spiritual Light Masters? Cherry gently clapped her small hands and said to Albert teasingly, "Now it's time for your performance. Let's surprise our outstanding student." Albert was a bit speechless, but still circulated his Water Element Sou

    As the water-element soul power poured into it, after a few moments, some dark blue and slightly viscous liquid gradually condensed inside the crystal bottle. Immediately after that, following the same steps, Anna quickly blended about a dozen materials. Finally, with extremely skillful techniques, she poured them together one after another in a specific order. Half an hour later, these material liquids were completely mixed together, and suddenly there was a violent reaction, and they even began to boil. "The next step will be the final one, and it's also an extremely important one. To fully integrate these materials together, a convergence of power is needed. This power is one of the factors that affect the content of the final spirit liquid produced." "That kind of power is called the Source Water or the Source Light." "Actually, simply put, it's the energy formed by highly condensing one's own water-element power or light-element power." Anna took a rhombus-shaped crystal sto

    "Thank you, Sister Anna." Having achieved his goal for today, Albert couldn't help but smile and thanked her sincerely. Anna, looking cold and cool, waved her hand casually, put on her long coat, and then dragged Cherry out of the refining room. ... In the following period of time, Albert's life became plain, fulfilling and regular. During the day, he practiced in Navia Academy. After that, he went back to the cultivation room in the old house to practice. Then he practiced the soul art again. Finally, he went to the Soul Liquid House. Under Anna's guidance, he began to learn how to become a qualified spirit light master. Moreover, the first batch of the five-star soul liquid that he asked Cherry to purchase had also arrived, so every day he would also take some time to absorb and refine some of the soul liquid. As time passed, Albert could feel that he was becoming stronger every day. Until the day before the preliminary examination of Navia Academy began, Albert's phase power

    However, some students hadn't witnessed that battle on that day in person. So they were still somewhat skeptical about Albert's outburst. Therefore, now that they saw Albert stepping onto the stage, they naturally wanted to observe him carefully. Albert's opponent was a lean young man at the sixth-stage realm. The young man looked rather bitter. His sixth-stage strength was around the middle level in Navia Academy, which wasn't too bad actually. But who would have thought that he would be so unlucky as to meet Albert in the first match. "Let's begin." Seeing that both sides had stepped onto the stage, the spectator directly announced the start of the competition. The lean young man didn't hesitate at all and burst out all of his soul power while directly entering a defensive state. Obviously, he planned to respond to changes by remaining unchanged. However, Albert didn't hesitate either. Blue soul power surged up, flowing on the surface of his body like water waves. His figure sh

    "I've heard that the young master has awakened a five-star water-element soul?" O'Casey asked as if he was a bit curious. Albert had been practicing in the Soul Liquid House for so many days, and the news about his five-star water-element soul had already spread. Albert looked at the deputy store manager of the Soul Liquid House who had defected to Bernard and nodded slightly, saying, "I'm learning to be a Spirit Light Master from Sister Anna." O'Casey smiled and said, "Deputy Store Manager Anna is an outstanding student from the Newhurst Advanced Academy and is quite capable. However, she's a bit lacking in experience. If the young master really wants to learn, although I'm not very talented, I can also offer some suggestions." Albert smiled. He wasn't sure whether O'Casey was being so kind because he wanted to put him under surveillance, figure out his exact situation and then report to Bernard, or if he really wanted to give him some guidance. But between Anna and O'Casey, Albe

    If things continued like this, Anna felt that the one-star refining room might really be taken away by O'Casey. Even though she had the support of Emily and Cherry, as long as O'Casey didn't make any obvious mistakes on the surface, it wouldn't be appropriate for them to directly kick out O'Casey, an old hand in the Soul Liquid House. Otherwise, it would cause some unrest in the Soul Liquid House. And if that affected the refining of Soul Liquids, it would be the Martin family that suffered the losses. Feeling rather annoyed, Anna just glanced at Albert when he walked into the refining room and didn't have the extra energy to say anything. However, Albert was quite casual about it. He walked straight to an unused refining compartment. Beside him, a pretty young woman said in a low voice, "Young master of the manor, you're here." Albert smiled and nodded in response. While arranging the materials on the refining table, he casually asked in a low voice, "Sister Sharon, Deputy Store M

    Everyone followed the gaze with astonishment on their faces. On a refining table at the back, Albert was holding a bottle of liquid with a blue glow in his hand, wearing a big smile on his face. Albert took a testing needle from the side, inserted it into one of the bottles, and then the pointer rose at an extremely fast speed. After a while, the pointer stopped at the position of 60. The people around couldn't help but burst out in an astonishing uproar. For the Soul Liquid with a purity of 60, figures rushed forward one after another. Albert had actually refined a Soul Liquid with a purity of 60. This was the first time that Albert had refined a Soul Liquid, and he had managed to do it under such circumstances. How was this possible? Hearing this exclamation, everyone felt it was unbelievable. They no longer cared about the dispute between Anna and O'Casey and all walked towards Albert. They rubbed the corners of their eyes and looked carefully, afraid that they had made a mist

    Anna filled another glass of wine and said, "To be honest, you're still far behind Emily at present."Albert admitted it frankly. How outstanding Emily was! The Nouhurst Advanced Academy had even put aside its pride to give her a special recruitment. Such an honor was probably something that even the imperial family of the Nouhurst Empire didn't possess."I won't fall too far behind," Albert said as he raised his wine glass.Anna smiled and said, "It seems you have feelings for Emily?""The excellence of Emily goes without saying. If I said I had no feelings for her, I'm afraid even you would say I was being hypocritical," Albert said earnestly.He and Emily had been childhood sweethearts for so many years. The emotions between them were already complicated. Coupled with that engagement contract, in Albert's view, there was already a deep bond between them. Albert believed that not only he himself, but even someone with Emily's personality couldn't treat him as an ordinary person. In t

    In the messy courtyard, Albert watched as the figures of Bernard and Elder Karl vanished into the night. He let out a soft sigh, and a trace of frustration flashed in his eyes. This attempt to kill Bernard had obviously failed, although Albert had had a premonition of this from the very beginning.After all, Bernard wasn't a fool. It was impossible for him to come to Newhurst City completely unguarded.What Albert didn't expect was that Elder Karl, the honorary elder of the Martin family, would actually protect Bernard."The old traitor who betrays his own family."Albert cursed. Karl had been living off the Martin family's offerings in the past, but now he was deliberately going against him."Mom and Dad were so wise. How could they leave behind such people?" Albert asked Emily with a depressed look.The brilliant and radiant soul power surging around Emily gradually subsided. Hearing Albert's words, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Maybe Master and Mistress never took these fl

    Albert let out a sigh and said, "I really want to know who on earth is behind Bernard that has such great ability that two of our Martin family's honorary elders would condescend to protect him.""But... Aren't you really afraid that my parents will come back someday?"Elder Karl's eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on his withered face gradually faded. He was silent for a moment and then said slowly, "Our actions haven't violated the rules set by the two family heads back then."Albert smiled and said, "But you seem a bit guilty."Elder Karl didn't say anything more, just sighed and said, "Young Master, it's meaningless to talk about these things now. There will be a result at the Martin family meeting half a year later.""And according to the rules set by the two family heads, among the Martin family now, the only ones who truly have the qualification to compete for the position of family head are Bernard and you."His gaze glanced at Emily beside him and smiled, saying, "Of cour

    Adam's body trembled slightly, and his face turned a bit pale. "No, no need. Our body, hair, and skin are given by our parents. It's better not to dye it."While Adam was being scared into a cold sweat by Sophie, Albert casually said to Shirley, "When the academy is on holiday in the future, if you have nowhere to go, you can come and have fun at the research room of the Soul Liquid Hall. The facilities here are complete, and it's very suitable for you to conduct research."Shirley tilted her head slightly, and her long hair was lifted by the gentle breeze. Then she stretched out her small hand and grasped it. With a hint of a smile in her peach-blossom eyes, she looked at Albert and said, "Captain, are you planning to let me work in the Soul Liquid Hall?"Being looked at like this by Shirley, Albert let out a dry laugh. This girl seemed simple and innocent on the surface, but in fact, she was very perceptive and intelligent.So Albert didn't hide it anymore and smiled, saying, "With

    "Is it really over like this?"When the crowd in front of the headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall began to disperse, Rebecca couldn't help but widen her eyes, looking completely dazed.Gaspar beside her was also taken aback for a moment, and then he chuckled softly, "It seems that we all underestimated Emily and Albert. They easily resolved this trouble.""Most likely because of Sister Emily's intervention," Rebecca said with great certainty. After all, she was a big fan of Emily. And although Albert had been getting more and more outstanding recently, compared to Emily, he was still much less impressive."Maybe."Gaspar was somewhat noncommittal. Emily was indeed excellent, but when facing this kind of change, it wasn't necessarily about who had stronger strength.However, he didn't know the inside story, so he couldn't give a more accurate evaluation.Just relying on some intuition, he felt that perhaps the young master's importance in this matter wasn't as light as Rebecca thought

    Shirley's watery peach blossom eyes looked at the tightly closed headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall. She thought to herself, "No wonder the captain is so eager for the formula of the Soul Liquid. It turns out that the situation of the Soul Liquid Hall is so bad..."Shirley's long eyelashes blinked gently. During these days of vacation, she had been immersed in the research of the Soul Liquid formula, and she had indeed had some bursts of inspiration. She thought that the formula she had prepared for a long time might have a breakthrough point soon. If it succeeded at that time, she could really help the captain.Of course, she also hoped that the captain would, considering how hard she had worked, pay more attention to the restoration of her sense of taste......"It's getting more and more lively."Ansel smiled and looked at the lively scene in front of the headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall. Then he turned to Bernard and said with a smile, "It seems that the destruction of the S

    He raised his head and looked outside the headquarters. Bernard had gone to great lengths to stage such a big drama, and it was time to put an end to it.Outside the headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall.The crowd was surging, and countless eyes were fixed on this place.And in the various restaurants not far from the street, there were also many curious eyes eagerly awaiting the outcome.They all understood that this outcome might cause the Martin family to be plunged into another period of intense upheaval."The rumors spreading in Newhurst City are getting more and more unreliable. Are these people really out of their minds? Even if Albert is stupid, he wouldn't poison and kill these Spiritual Light Masters from the branches at the headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall."By the window of a restaurant, a slender and exquisitely shaped green-haired girl pouted as she looked at the bustling crowd outside the Soul Liquid Hall.It was Rebecca of the Brian family.Standing beside her was

    The sudden embrace of the soft and fragrant body made Albert freeze for a moment. However, before he could enjoy this wonderful feeling for long, Emily pulled away.Albert felt as if his heart had suddenly become empty.He smacked his lips and said dissatisfiedly, "That was too short, wasn't it?"Cherry walked over with a smile and teased, "Don't be in a hurry, young master. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If you perform well, why worry about not having more to enjoy?""And..."She pointed at the other antidote potions with her slender fingers and said, "There are still so many antidote potions that haven't had the 'finishing touch' yet. Young master, can you... do it?"She blinked her charming eyes with a beaming smile.Albert looked at those antidote potions placed all over and his heart twitched slightly. His palm involuntarily touched his waist, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't tell me the words 'I can't'!"Then he picked up the other antidote po

    "But how is that possible? How could you have refined the Secret Method Source Water by yourself?"Albert smiled, extended his finger, and soul power gathered at his fingertip. In the end, it turned into a drop of soul power liquid. With a gentle shake, this drop of soul power liquid floated in front of the three women.Emily and the others stared at this drop of soul power liquid. Even though they didn't touch it, they could still feel the familiar fluctuations. After all, they had come into contact with the Secret Method Source Water that Albert had given them many times before.These two were completely the same."Actually, it's not too incredible. Wasn't I an empty soul before? Even though a soul was born again due to certain reasons later, my soul power still shows extremely strong inclusiveness. I call it 'emptiness'. The advantage of this is that my soul power can merge with other soul powers without causing resistance," Albert explained with a smile."Those so-called Secret Me

    "Master, we are indeed somewhat unable to help with this trouble this time."At this moment, Leo let out a sigh and said, "However, my teacher should be able to return to Newhurst City soon. When that time comes, if you invite the old master here again, there should be some hope."Albert's expression was indifferent. By the time your teacher comes back, the Soul Liquid Hall will probably be in a terrible mess, and there won't be any hope left at all.Emily could even tell that Leo wanted to leave. The key point was that even if this guy left, leaving at this moment would obviously also affect the other healers. When people's hearts disperse, that would be the real trouble.However, at this moment, even she didn't have any other solution. After all, everyone had seen that the antidote developed by Leo had no effect. This poison was probably really beyond what they could handle.There was also a faint look of anxiety on the faces of Cherry and Anna.Just when the intention to back off a
