Chapter 155: Foundation Establishment at the Age of Sixty
Outside the Pill Refining Room, the yard was filled with joy.
Liu Yonggang gave the four-and-a-half-patterned Quality Pill to Yang Dan like it was a priceless treasure,
Wangyue City's administrators, big and small, surrounded them, continuously expressing their happiness:
"Congratulations, Miss Yang. This Ice-Attribute Foundation Establishment Pill is a Quality Pill with four and a half patterns. Your brother will definitely succeed in his Foundation Establishment this time!"
"Indeed, indeed"
"Congratulations, congratulations"
The scene was as if Yang Dan had given birth to a child, and this child, just after being born, was evaluated to have a Single Spiritual Root.
But in reality, didn't they ever think that Chen Yi was the one who gave birth to this Foundation Establishment Pill?
Consequently, he provided the most precious main materials for the Pill. Given the specific attribute requirements this time, Chen Yi should have the first right to choose. The Quality Foundation Establishment Pill should be his,
However, this fact was selectively overlooked by everyone other than Chen Yi.
Who cares about the ideas of a sixty-year-old Qi Refining Cultivator?
Chen Yi stood in a corner, observing coldly.
Yang Dan held the four-and-a-half-patterned Foundation Establishment Pill in her hand for a long time. The surprise in her eyes, the praise in her mouth, the gratitude towards Alchemist Liu, along with everyone's congratulations,
created a special joyful atmosphere.
Chen Yi, standing in the corner, didn't quite fit in.
Only after a long time,
did it gradually quiet down. Liu Yonggang, alongside Yang Dan, started inspecting the other two Foundation Establishment Pills.
As expected, one pill was a waste pill and the other was substandard.
Yang Dan stopped smiling and holding both pills, came to stand in front of Chen Yi.
The whole place fell silent, everyone's gaze turned towards Chen Yi, with some of them exuding disdain.
"Daoist Chen, this time our pill refining was a success, with a Quality Pill and a Substandard Pill. That's a decent return.
According to the regulations, you should have been the rightful owner of the Quality Foundation Establishment Pill."
"However, where do we stand now?"
Chen Yi smiled as he listened, mentally completing her sentence with three words:
"But my poor younger brother really needs it, Daoist Chen. You don't want my brother to fail his Foundation Establishment attempt, do you?"
I don't give a damn about your brother! If I had a Core Formation Stage elder behind me, would you dare to speak to me like this?
At that moment, Chen Yi's heart was icy. All he wanted to do was end this farce as early as possible,
return home, succeed in his Foundation Establishment on the first attempt, practice diligently and, after growing stronger,
smash Yang Dan with a slap!
Not to mention Alchemist Liu Yonggang, Tan Fei, and City Master Yue Xiu – none of them will be spared!
They really exploit an honest man!
"Yang... I mean Senior Yang, just say it directly. Do you want to take it straight away or what?"
Chen Yi didn't have the patience to maintain pretenses anymore.
"Of course I wouldn't just take it. As the legitimate child of the Yang family, I must follow the rules when I act in Wangyue City. Daoist Chen, how about this? I take the Quality Pill and you take the lesser one,
I will compensate for the difference in the worth of the pills, and the difference added to the material cost of the Foundation Establishment Pill, by giving you three thousand spirit stones. How does that sound?"
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came in from outside:
"How can you do this?!"
Chen Yi turned around to see a furious Song Chengcheng breaking in,
However, noticing that among the Foundation Establishment cultivators present, there were quite a few whose Mana fluctuations were significantly stronger than hers, her momentum faltered somewhat.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, power is supreme. It is second nature to be intimidated when facing someone stronger than oneself,
And there were multiple such people in there.
Nevertheless, in the end, Song Chengcheng braced herself and stood by Chen Yi's side to show her support.
Chen Yi thanked her with a grateful look but pulled her behind him: "Daoist Song, you don't have to do this. Senior Yang is discussing this with me with good intentions, they all follow the rules."
Chen Yi said these words because he did not want Ray Dan and the others to hold a grudge against Song Chengcheng, she is giving her support out of her good heart, and he would not want anything harmful to come her way as a result.
At this moment, even if Chen Yi used all his strength, adding in Song Chengcheng's efforts wouldn't be enough to overcome the opponent. Not to mention, Yang Dan's elder was the only Core Formation Stage cultivator in Wangyue City.
"Who are you?" Yang Dan looked at the intruding Song Chengcheng and asked.
"Qinglong Island, Inner Sect Disciple, Song Chengcheng." Song Chengcheng coldly replied, managing to muster enough courage to confront Yang Dan solely.
"What does this have to do with you?"
"Chen Yi is my close friend, and I am the one who provided the Demon Core and other Pill Materials for his pill refining. Of course, I need to keep an eye out for him."
Song Chengcheng didn't back down an inch!
"I see..."
Yang Dan looked at Song Chengcheng for a while, listened to Tan Feng explain her background,
and then nodded:
"Well then, for your sake, apart from compensating Daoist Chen with three thousand spirit stones, I, Yang Dan, promise to owe him a favor, as long as I live. How about that?"
Wow!
A favor from a Single Spiritual Root genius, a True Core seedling, if used wisely, could be worth tens of thousands of spirit stones?
More importantly, Yang Dan is favored by the Yang Family's True Core Ancestor.
With this favor, Chen Yi could virtually swagger about Wangyue City.
When they heard this, the gathered Foundation Establishment cultivators revealed envious looks. After all, this was a favor from Yang Dan,
If they were in Chen Yi's place, they would agree instantly even if more conditions were added, foregoing even the three thousand spirit stones compensation. That's how desirable her favor was!
Little Chen Yi, he was so lucky. He has caught the vast support of the Yang Family,
This year he turned sixty, and for the rest of his 30-odd years of life, he is sure to lead a worry-free life.
