C9 – Selling Pills
His Spiritual Root was of the finest caliber, a fire-type Hidden Spiritual Root, which required no enhancement. However, his sister could benefit from this pill.
Spiritual Roots are categorized into low, medium, top, and the highest tier known as the top-grade Spiritual Root.
“Yun Tiantian, this pill is for you,” Yun Haoyan said as he tossed the black pill to his astonished sister.
“A poison pill?”
“What poison pill? Would I ever harm you? This is a coveted pill that others can only dream of,” Yun Haoyan scoffed. “Go ahead and take it without any worries!”
Convinced by her brother’s assurance, Yun Tiantian didn’t hesitate to pop the pill into her mouth, only to grimace and complain, “It’s so bitter!”
But then, she felt a rush of Spiritual Energy flooding in from her crown, washing over her with a wave of comfort that enveloped her entire body.
“It feels amazing!”
It was like savoring a chunk of ice on a sweltering day, utterly refreshing.
The sensation, however, was fleeting, vanishing as quickly as it had arrived.
“Brother! Do you have more of these pills? I want another!” Yun Tiantian pleaded, tugging at his arm eagerly.
Yun Haoyan spread his hands, revealing his empty palm to his sister. “See for yourself, they’re all gone. These are Qi Gathering Pills.”
Yun Tiantian scrutinized the pills in her brother’s hand, counting them meticulously.
One, two, three… six… twenty.
Exactly twenty pills.
“Brother, you crafted twenty Qi Gathering Pills?” she gasped, her excitement palpable.
The lowest market price for a seven-line Qi Gathering Pill was 1,000 low-grade Spirit Stones each, making twenty pills worth a total of 20,000 low-grade Spirit Stones.
Yun Haoyan had invested just 190 low-grade Spirit Stones to produce twenty Qi Gathering Pills, netting a profit of 19,810 low-grade Spirit Stones.
The sum was… one, two, three…
Yun Tiantian lost track of the calculations. It was a staggering multiple, regardless.
Is this how alchemists amass their Spirit Stones?
With a puzzled look, Yun Tiantian turned to Yun Haoyan and queried, “Brother, isn’t it said that you can only make up to ten Qi Gathering Pills from a single batch? How did you manage…”
“That’s just because they lack knowledge. A true alchemist can take the ingredients for one Qi Gathering Pill and produce twenty from it,” declared Yun Haoyan with conviction.
Is that really possible?
I’m not well-read, so don’t try to fool me.
Yun Tiantian sensed something was amiss, yet she couldn’t quite identify what it was.
“Let’s go!” exclaimed Yun Haoyan.
“Where are we going?”
“To sell pills!”
They returned to the familiar Echoes of Despair, with Yun Haoyan leading his sister back into the pavilion.
The maid, recognizing the guests she had just served, quickly approached them with a sense of urgency.
“Can I assist you with anything?” she inquired nervously.
She worried there might have been an issue with the Spiritual Plants she sold earlier.
But she had inspected them meticulously.
Those Spiritual Plants were supposed to be of the highest quality and freshness.
“I’m here to sell pills!” Yun Haoyan announced, extending the pills he held in his grasp.
The maid swiftly cradled the loose pills in her hands, breathing a sigh of relief. The Spiritual Plants she had sold were not the problem after all.
Yet, the behavior of these two was quite peculiar. She had never seen anyone sell pills in such a manner.
Typically, pills were stored and sold in Jade Bottles.
But here was this man, casually presenting the pills in his bare hands.
In all her years as a waitress, she had never encountered such a scenario, and on top of that…
These were all top-grade Qi Gathering Pills!
Heavens! These were all top-grade Spirit Gathering Pills!
He was holding top-grade Qi Gathering Pills in his bare hands?
“Esteemed customer, please hold on for a moment. I need to call our steward!” Overwhelmed by the sight of such valuable pills, she called out loudly towards the inner room.
“Steward Qi! Please come quickly, we have a customer here with pills to sell.”
