Chapter 2237: Sorry, I Won’t Sell (Fourth Update)

“That woman was really beautiful just now, an unparalleled beauty!”

“It’s a pity, a flower stuck in cow dung!”

Even after she passed, many notable figures from the Pill Emperor Clan were still discussing and feeling regretful.

Aben’s exceptional beauty is rarely seen in the world, comparable only to that of an Emperor’s daughter.

“Stop gossiping, be careful about being overheard.” Dan Xian rebuked, leading them away.

As for the Pill Emperor Clan, Ye Chen didn’t hold much animosity; it was just the coldness of society.

The opposite party had made its choice, and he saw no need to force the Pill Emperor Clan into befriending him; besides, back in the Emperor’s Battlefield, the Pill Emperor had bestowed upon him an alchemical inheritance.

Not long after, Ruoya returned gracefully, elegant and alluring.

Behind her followed over ten servants, each carrying a group of Divine Light, gleaming brightly and drawing much attention.

There were at least a hundred of these Divine Light Groups.

Ruoya came forward, smiling gracefully, “Dear guests, the medicinal materials you requested have arrived, please have a look.”

Ye Chen stepped forward, his eyes flashing with brilliance as he quickly scanned through the Divine Light Groups for the various medicinal materials, soon nodding in approval.

All these materials were sufficiently aged, and even while stored in the Divine Light Groups, they were nurtured with precious Divine Soil and provided with abundant nature’s spiritual energy, allowing further growth. They were all of top-notch quality, with nothing fraudulent included, which satisfied Ye Chen greatly.

The Wanbao Pavilion indeed practices fair trade.

Ye Chen smiled at Elder Ruoya, “Elder Ruoya, I am very satisfied. May I inquire about the price?”

Ruoya smiled gently and said, “The total is 786,820,000 jin of Spirit Stones. Due to the substantial amount of this transaction, Ruoya can decide on Wanbao Pavilion’s behalf to waive the additional figures. The guest only needs to pay 780 million.”

Seeing this, everyone nodded in admiration; this woman’s conduct was indeed admirable, directly waiving over 6 million jin in Spirit Stones, which garnered favorable impressions.

Naturally, they didn’t think the Wanbao Pavilion was losing out; the overall value of these materials was close to 800 million. Even this was just a market price, while privately, the Wanbao Pavilion was still making a significant profit.

“Then I thank Elder Ruoya.”

Ye Chen didn’t hesitate, casually waving his hand, promptly revealing a pile of Divine Spiritual Origin like a small mountain, exuding countless rays of light, its fragrance overflowing, permeating the entire Medicine Hall and radiating Divine Light, causing the other servants in the hall to watch with shining eyes.

Many Heavenly Prides from the Pill Emperor Clan on the side were also taken aback.

At this level of transaction, ordinary Spirit Stones are naturally insufficient; the Wanbao Pavilion wouldn’t accept them. But Divine Spiritual Origin is acceptable, useful even for Great Powers.

Ruoya’s eyes, too, shimmered with threads of wonder as she inspected; its value was approximately 780 million, and even if it wasn’t exact, it was close enough.

For a guest making such large purchases, the Wanbao Pavilion would offer some discounts and naturally wouldn’t be fussy.

Ruoya gently waved her hand, swiftly gathering all the Spiritual Origins, then formed sealing gestures with her hands, issuing one special Dao Rune after another.

These Dao Runes charged into the various Divine Light Groups, imprinting on them one by one. Immediately, the restrictions on the Divine Light Groups were shattered, and the radiant medicinal materials floated down in five colors, landing before Ye Chen.

With a swift motion, Ye Chen instantly retrieved them, storing them within a space inside his body.

Meanwhile, Ruoya, after slightly bowing to Ye Chen and his companions, went over to Dan Xian and company, her gaze sweeping across them, her particular presence and the scent of Pill Fragrance hinting at their identity as distinguished Heavenly Prides from the Pill Emperor Clan.

She smiled gracefully, “Esteemed guests, I am Elder Ruoya in charge of the Medicine Hall. Is there anything you need?”

Dan Xian similarly produced a list, saying, “Elder Ruoya, I need to purchase some medicinal ingredients for alchemy; these must be complete.”

Ruoya glanced over the list’s medicinal materials, quickly scanning them all thankfully available.

However, when she reached the end, her gaze slightly froze; then she looked up toward Dan Xian and said, “Dear guests, most of the items on the list are available, but the Nine Soul Heavenly Fruit, Blue Silver Divine Medicine, Shaking Heaven Secret Fruit, and Phoenix Blood Pill Grass are unavailable.”

“What!?”

Dan Xian opened his eyes wide; behind him, other young talents from the Pill Emperor Clan were equally shocked because these four items were precisely the essential ingredients in pill-making, indispensable.

“The Wanbao Pavilion is a place of countless treasures, including medicinal materials; why are they not here?” Dan Xian frowned, “Before arriving, I consulted a Wanbao Pavilion elder who said they had every kind of material.”

Ruoya slightly bowed with an apology, “Sorry, the Wanbao Pavilion currently does not have those four medicinal materials. If the guests are willing to wait, within a year, a batch of materials will arrive, including the four you desire.”

Dan Xian’s expression turned somber; they had come here on direct command from the Emperor’s daughter.

The Emperor’s daughter needed to refine a pill; other ingredients could be missing, but these four medicinal materials were indispensable as the main ingredients.

More importantly, the Emperor’s daughter’s true purpose for refining that pill was for use at the Emperor’s son banquet.

A year from now, the Emperor’s son banquet would be long past, and he’d miss his chance.

Knowing he intended to use this opportunity to approach the Emperor’s daughter and gain her favor,

becoming Daoist couples naturally was the best outcome.

Thus, this time was a golden opportunity, which he absolutely could not let down the Emperor’s daughter.

Suddenly, Dan Xian seemed to think of something, looking toward Ye Chen and his companions nearby. Just now, they had purchased over a hundred varieties of medicinal materials, among which he noticed hints of these four main ingredients. He then asked Ruoya, “Did they buy all those four medicinal materials?”

Ruoya gently shook her head, saying, “Sorry, I cannot disclose.”

However, Dan Xian remained convinced, bypassing Ruoya, walking toward Ye Chen, blocking their path, saying, “Fellow Daoist, I want to buy the Nine Soul Heavenly Fruit, Blue Silver Divine Medicine, Shaking Heaven Secret Fruit, and Phoenix Blood Pill Grass that you just purchased, willing to offer an additional ten percent.”

The other individuals in the Medicine Hall were startled. An additional ten percent for such extraordinary materials, each considered astronomical in price, and collectively very expensive.

The Pill Emperor Clan truly shows its wealth.

Ye Chen, however, frowned, and calmly replied, “I’m sorry, not for sale.”

Hearing this, Dan Xian frowned, saying, “Fellow Daoist, how about an additional twenty percent? Please consider seriously, as this opportunity isn’t found everywhere.”

Ye Chen coldly replied, “Not interested.”
