Chapter 154: The Sorrow of the Loose Cultivator, Quality Pill Stolen_2
Chen Yi explained how his three friends went all out to help.
After all, their collective monster hunting activities were well known, there was no need for Chen Yi to hide it.
After listening, Liu Peng was filled with envy:
"Brother Chen, you are really lucky. The three fellows from your hometown have all reached the Foundation Establishment Period, and they're all willing to help you wholeheartedly!"
"As for asking my father to prepare the furnace, his pill refining schedule is full for the next two years. Can you wait a few more years?"
Chen Yi looked at him expressionlessly. Do you think I, a 60-year-old man, can wait any longer?
"Brother Liu, I have prepared the last pill formula for the Beauty Pill series. If you are not in a hurry, I can give it to you in a few years?"
"Brother Chen! You should have said so earlier! What materials do you have besides the main ingredients? I'll go find my father now and ask him to make some adjustments!"
After Liu Peng directly asked Chen Yi for the materials list and checked his Ice-Attribute demon core to ensure it met the conditions for refining pills, he promptly left for his father Liu Zhugang's residence in the core area.
Cultivating immortality is not only about fighting and killing but also about connections and worldly affairs.
Chen Yi controlled the most crucial core technology of the Beauty Pill formula, just waiting for this moment to use it.
However, everything has a cause and an effect. Chen Yi was just one of the millions of cultivators in the world, and not everything could go according to his wishes.
Three days later,
Chen Yi received Liu Peng's reply,
But this time, Huichun Hall received a group of unexpected guests.
Today, a group of important figures arrived at Willow Leaf Sect, located in the outer area of Wangyue Inner City, where Qi Refining Period cultivators lived.
A few shadows descended from the sky, in a line, entering Willow Leaf Sect and walking towards Chen Yi's Huichun Hall.
In the front was a woman in red. She was extremely beautiful, proud, and her skin was like snow, walking ahead,
She exuded a touch of the ethereal air of a celestial.
Behind her was a white-robed son, half-leaning to guide,
Chen Yi recognized him as Tan Feng.
Next to Tan Feng was a middle-aged man. He was slightly plump, but he had an authoritative aura of a high-ranking person,
Although Chen Yi had not formally met this middle-aged male cultivator, he recognized him as Yue Xiu, who had been mayor of Wangyue City for the past decade,
A cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment Period.
Behind Yue Xiu followed a group of officials from Wangyue City,
Whereas the managers in Willow Leaf Sect, who usually strutted around, were now trailing behind submissively.
The neighbors all watched from their doorways, seriously bowing their heads and saluting as the group of dignitaries walked by,
Then they wondered who exactly these people were looking for.
The result was that the group of people came to Chen Yi's Huichun Hall in grand style.
At this time, neither Song Chengcheng nor Wang Tengfei were present, so Chen Yi had to receive them alone.
"Everyone ... seniors, what can I do for you by coming to my humble abode?"
At the side, Tan Feng in the white robe was about to speak reprimand,
But he was stopped by a gentle lifting of the hand of the woman in red. He immediately swallowed his words.
The woman smiled at Chen Yi, and her red lips moved slightly, trying her best to make herself seem approachable:
"The young friend called Chen Yi? Hello, I am Yang Dan of the Yang Clan Commerce."
Yang Dan?
The pride of the Yang Family with a Single Spiritual Root, future Core Formation seedling?
What is she here for?
Chen Yi was puzzled, but he still acted extremely humble:
"I have heard of Senior Yang. Your great name echoes across all the islands. It's a great honor to meet you today!"
"As long as you understand it's an honor, Xiao Chen, you've obtained an Ice-Attribute Demon Core, haven't you? Hand it over, and I will waive your Cave Mansion's rent for thirty years!"
The one who spoke was the plump middle-aged male cultivator, the current City Lord of Wangyue City, Yue Xiu.
Thirty years of rent is worth 3,000 spirit stones. The price of a Demon Core that can refine a Foundation Establishment Pill is below 2,000 spirit stones,
When City Lord Yue spoke these words, he clearly gave Chen Yi a considerable face, overpricing by half.
Chen Yi didn't make a sound, he didn't withdraw the salute he made towards Yang Dan, but looked at Yang Dan,
He was puzzled,
Didn't he hear two years ago that Yang Dan had gotten a 300-year-old Pure Spirit Fruit and found someone to refine it into a Foundation Establishment Pill? Why is she interested in his Ice-Attribute Demon Core today?
Yang Dan blocked City Lord Yue, and once again smiled warmly at Chen Yi:
"Chen friend, I heard that you obtained a Cold Jade Monster Core. May I have a look?"
With a smile on her face, she held open her fair hand and stretched it in front of Chen Yi.
Behind her, from the city lord to the managers at various levels, plus Tan Feng, about 5 or 6 Foundation Establishment cultivators stood unmovable, staring at Chen Yi.
And the neighbors nearby were also paying attention to this place. They didn't come close, nor were they willing to walk away. They leaned at their doors, holding their breath, and watched attentively.
Facing so many Foundation Establishment cultivators, no matter how polite the woman in the red skirt, Yang Dan was, Chen Yi knew that they were not here to negotiate with him.
Today's losses for Chen Yi depends on whether the other party wanted to save face.
Chen Yi helplessly took out a jade box from his Storage Bag, put it on Yang Dan's hand,
Then, he remained silent.
Chen Yi calculated, in such a situation, even if Wang Tengfei and Song Chengcheng arrived together, it should be useless.
And if Chen Yi violently attacked, then escaped back to the Martial World, that would be a loss greater than the gain. Furthermore, he faced the genius with a Single Spiritual Root, the real pride of Wangyue City. It was doubtful whether he could even harm her.
Fortunately, Chen Yi had already refined the actual Earth-grade Bloodline Cold Jade Turtle Snake's Demon Core into a Foundation Establishment Pill and hid it in the Martial World.
