CHAPTER 34: MEETING FEMZI'S BOSS

Jia took out the heavenly cauldron and placed it on one side.

Jia removed the impurities from the materials.

She used her fire to heat the cauldron and threw the herbs inside it

"POP"

Six golden pills appeared in her hands.

She kept them in a safe place.

She refined a few Qi-gathering pills and fed it all to Zi and Khloe

"There's a male war machine and a female war machine. I wonder what a baby war machine would look like" Damon said pretending to think and making some gestures.

Jia's face blackened instantly.

"It's your sister so ..." Jia said also pretending to think.

Damon's face blackened instantly.

A smile formed at the corner of her lips.

Jia yawned.

"See you later," she said with a hazy voice.

She lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Damon stared at her with a speechless look.

THE NEXT DAY

The sun shone through the window directly onto Jia's face.

It gave her a burning sensation that woke her up.

She yawned again and then got up to change into a suitable outfit.

She saw a message on her linker telling her to come over and that it was almost time.

A maid entered with some clothes.

Jia frowned.

"Take these back, I won't wear these" Jia said dismissing the maid.

She looked at her outfit and looked at the one the maid brought, and she shuddered.

Jia flicked her fingers and summoned all her subordinates to follow her.

"You want to brew up trouble again, " Damon asked with a smile.

"Of course, That's my Job," Jia said with a smirk.

"Get over here," Femzi said looking at Jia who was gingerly walking over.

Everyone present saw the thirteen people behind her.

Her friends looked at her in confusion and so did Femzi.

He was surprised as he could sense their thick aura.

"Who are they" He couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, just a couple of people I picked up," Jia said lazily.

Femzi introduced Jia to everyone in the underworld as the pill master who would be second only to him.

A lot of people were not exactly happy, but they didn't want to offend the boss.

"Your shenanigans are going to be exposed here. Who do you think you are? Scheming your way up? It hasn't been a year yet and you think you can be above us?" One of them couldn't help but say.

The others cheered for him in support.

Jia flashed a cold smile.

She brought out a string of pills and showed it to them.

"Get someone to check their authenticity of them," Jia said coldly.

All of them could feel the spiritual energy present in the pills.

They knew it was pills but they still didn't want to accept that Jia would be second in command.

"Still, you might have schemed your way to get these pills. I mean you could have stolen them. Prove to us that you can refine pills " Another one said with a sneer.

Jia smiled again.

She brought out the heavenly cauldron and refined a basic qi-gathering pill in their presence.

Jia gave it to one of them.

"Try it," Jia said with a dangerous smile.

Some felt it was poison, so they called a maid to take it.

Jia's expression darkened.

The maid took the pill and increased it by two levels.

"Enough!! She's now my second in command and that's an order!!" Femzi said with anger evident in his voice.

His killing intent had gone haywire causing all of them to forcefully kneel.

"All of you, Scram!" Femzi said his eyes turning black.

They all scurried out like little children.

His eyes reverted to normal, and he flashed a smile.

"Follow me" He beckoned to Jia walking out.

He stopped in front of a mysterious dark looking door.

"Listen, when you get in there, you'll meet the real bosses. Just don't try to make eye contact with the big boss or you'll get zapped" Femzi warned.

Jia got amused.

The door opened and the spatial orientation warped taking him and Jia to another place.

"Try to focus or you'll get lost" Femzi warned.

They arrived at a weird-looking place.

It was dark in color with a strange metallic luster.

It gave the feeling of everything eerie.

Strange slithering sounds were heard giving Jia the chills.

Jia tried to say something, but she stopped as illumination entered the place.

She saw a half man - half snake person sizing her up with vicious intent.

'Is this supposed to be called a mersnake or what? ' Jia thought with a puzzled expression.

A man entered with a suffocating aura. Jia was forced to look down.

He sat on the golden throne, and he was surrounded by six people. They looked ethereal and grandiose.
