Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

Upon hearing this...

Xiao Weiqing narrowed his eyes. It seemed that Jiu Xin had come with ill intentions and had a problem with him.

wrong.

Xiao Weiqing then remembered that he was the one who had come.

Even so, he didn't like the tone of Jiu Xin's voice.

"Jiuxin, how dare you speak like that?"

Liege lowered his head and shouted.

"Your Excellency, this recommendation meeting is a very grand event. We will be launching the No. 4 Longevity Elixir at the meeting, and many powerful and influential figures have already arrived."

"If the special envoy has the time, we can arrange an introduction. Perhaps the special envoy will need their help in the future."

Xiao Weiqing glanced at Lie Ge and nodded slightly.

Look at how well he speaks; no wonder he's a company leader.

"Can."

"But keep it low-key, don't have too many people."

Xiao Weiqing did not refuse again.

Liege nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

"Your Excellency, this way please."

A group of people flew to Changsheng Technology Island.

soon.

Invitations were sent out from Changsheng Technology Island.

Xiao Weiqing was taken to a luxurious estate covering nearly 100 square kilometers.

The manor is not comparable in size to his Manor No. 66 in the Holy Land, but it is still quite large in a place like Changsheng Technology Island where every inch of land is precious.

"Your Excellency, this is where special envoys have always lived. You can stay here while you are at Changsheng Pharmaceutical Company. We will take care of your accommodation, security, and other matters, and ensure that no one will dare to disturb you."

"Thank you, Mr. Liege."

"No, it's my duty."

"Your Excellency, please rest for a moment. I have already notified the various factions attending the welcoming banquet, and they will arrive soon."

"Lina, show the envoy around the manor."

"Yes, Lord Rego."

A young woman approached Xiao Weiqing, and said with a hint of trepidation, "Your Excellency, please come with me."

Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly and did not refuse.

After the two left.

Lie Ge shouted, "Jiu Xin, you're being too impulsive. Regardless of whether Xiao Weiqing came with a mission, he's a special envoy personally sent by the Holy Land. Watch your tone."

Jiu Xin glanced at Lie Ge, unconcerned. "Lie Ge, it's true that Xiao Weiqing has the Holy Land backing him, but don't we have the Holy Land backing us too?"

"Isn't Changsheng Pharmaceutical Company a sacred industry?"

"At least 60% of our annual income has to be handed over to the Holy Land, and now they've sent people to investigate us."

Lie Ge reassured him, "Jiuxin, we don't know Xiao Weiqing's purpose for coming yet. It may not be aimed at us. Don't act rashly. I'll sound him out first."

Jiu Xin snorted coldly, "It better not be, otherwise..."

"otherwise?"

"What do you want to do?"

Liege's face turned completely cold, his eyes filled with a warning.

Jiu Xin did not answer, nor did he meet Lie Ge's gaze.

Denise, standing to the side, looked up at the sky; she knew nothing and heard nothing.

As invitations were sent out one by one.

The various factions received the invitation, their joy evident in their expressions.

They all came to attend the No. 4 Longevity Elixir Recommendation Meeting, and they never expected to meet the Holy Land's special envoy. If they can get in touch with him, they'll be set for life.

How did the Longevity Pharmaceutical Company grow from a planet inhabited only by natives to one with businesses spanning the Light Spiral Galaxy and even radiating to other star systems in less than ten thousand years? Wasn't it all thanks to finding a powerful backer?

and so.

After receiving the invitation, everyone accepted it without hesitation and set off for Changsheng Technology Island.

Some people living on Changsheng Technology Island had already arrived at the manor ahead of time.

time flies.

On the lawn inside the manor, one figure after another appeared, some of whom knew each other and were talking to each other.

soon.

Night fell.

Nearly a thousand people came to the manor, the vast majority of whom were rulers, with very few star lords, and those who were there were mostly representing their elders.

Inside the castle.

"Your Excellency, everyone has arrived. Lord Liege says it's your turn to appear."

"Okay, let's go then."

Xiao Weiqing walked out of the gate first, followed by five people, all of whom were arranged by Lie Ge to take care of Xiao Weiqing.

The original number of people was over a hundred, which really surprised Xiao Weiqing. He was used to living alone and didn't like this kind of pomp and circumstance.

Unable to dissuade Liege, he had no choice but to leave behind six people, including Lina.

Entering the banquet venue.

Countless rare foods and drinks were laid out on the table, but most people ignored them; they were there to make friends and expand their networks.

"The special envoy has arrived."

"This is the Holy Land envoy? He's too young."

"Indeed young."

These rulers are all thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years old, unlike Xiao Weiqing, who is at most a hundred years old, and in some civilizations, he is not even considered an adult.

"Everyone, this is the Holy Land's special envoy, Lord Xiao Weiqing."

Lie Ge stepped forward without hesitation to introduce Xiao Weiqing.

"Greetings, Your Excellency."

"Greetings, Your Excellency."

Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly.

"Greetings, everyone."

Xiao Weiqing didn't say much. He probably wouldn't have any interaction with these people, and he was only attending the banquet to give Lie Ge face.

The banquet begins.

Liege, Jiuxin, Denise, and Xiao Weiqing sat in the main seats without moving around.

One powerful ruler after another came over to greet Xiao Weiqing.

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. With Lina introducing him from behind, Xiao Weiqing didn't refuse them, but they didn't exchange many words either.

These people were all perceptive; they could tell that Xiao Weiqing probably didn't like this kind of scene. Most of them greeted him and left, leaving an impression.

time flies.

As the banquet progressed into its middle, just as Xiao Weiqing was getting bored and preparing to leave...

A group of beautifully dressed women entered the venue, carrying cups of bright green drinks.

Many banquet guests' eyes lit up when they saw her, their gazes following the woman's swaying steps, or more precisely, staring at the drink.

The head maid was beautiful and charming, and she carried a cup toward Xiao Weiqing.

"Greetings, Your Excellency."

Xiao Weiqing looked at Lie Ge with some curiosity.

Liege chuckled and said, "Your Excellency, this is a drink made from the No. 1 Longevity Elixir. Although it cannot increase lifespan for people of our strength, it is still beneficial to our divine bodies."

Denise picked up a wine glass and said, "Your Excellency, please."

Xiao Weiqing was indeed very interested in the so-called longevity potion. He picked up a cup, but instead of drinking it directly, he held it to his nose and smelled it, only to find that it had no odor at all.

"Your Excellency, you can't tell by smell; you have to taste it."

Liege also raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Xiao Weiqing took a sip.

It has a mild taste and a slightly sweet flavor that is almost imperceptible if you don't pay close attention. After swallowing it, a faint fragrance lingers in the mouth, which makes Xiao Weiqing a little curious, since he can't smell any aroma at all.

"Ms. Denise, how much does this drink cost?"

Denise said, "One dose of Longevity Potion No. 1 can make 10 servings of this drink. The suggested retail price is 15 Cosmic Coins."

"15 million?"

Xiao Weiqing was somewhat surprised.

15 Cosmic Coins equals 150 Academic Credits, which is not cheap.
