Chapter 305
The practice sword was sent to deity-grade box number four, where a transaction involving hundreds of millions of yuan stones was happening.
Compared to Murong Yuan’s squandering, Jiang Chen realized the commission of several million that the Sacred Institute had granted him was nothing at all.
It was a big fortune for someone from the Fire Field like him, but in certain circles of rich families, it was just a normal allowance for children.
The five spiritual herbs necessary for the antidote of Death Warrant Flower are easy for the Gaos to get.
Jiang Chen clenched his fists at the thought. If he could have ruled out the possibility that the Gaos might not know how to refine the antidote, the anger at the sheer unfairness of it would have shown on his face.
And yet the Hero Palace is examining each of my expenses. Alas…
Jiang Chen shook his head. It wasn’t because he was greedy, but because he had just discovered how cheap the method to develop the eight extraordinary meridians could be.
None of the higher-ups of the Sacred City could sit still anymore. Many people couldn’t help but stand up.
If they hadn’t been in an auction hall, if they hadn’t been in the Sacred Wind Chamber of Commerce, they would have sneered with disdain at what they had heard.
“That’s unlikely!”
There were still people who didn’t believe it. There were also many alchemists in the audience who expressed their opinions.
Such panaceas didn’t exist in their world. That was the popular opinion.
Yin Shuang silently smiled bitterly. She had underestimated the power of the Heaven Pulse Elixirs to cause chaos.
“Ladies and gentlemen.”
Yin Shuang gestured for the audience to calm down.
When it was quiet enough, she said slowly, “At the beginning, the chamber of commerce didn’t believe it, either, but the steward working with this master endorsed him. That’s why the chamber of commerce agreed to list the panaceas in today’s auction. Now, let’s invite the steward to come on stage to introduce the panaceas.”
Lin Rong went on stage as soon as she had finished speaking. Under the audience’s piercing gazes, he couldn’t help but admire Yin Shuang’s composure.
“The Heaven Pulse Elixirs do have the effect Miss Yin Shuang mentioned. During my conversation with the master, I witnessed a living example whose eight extraordinary meridians had all been developed.
“That’s why we listed the panaceas in the auction without having tested them ourselves first. Since each panacea is very—”
“In fact, it’s because the master came to the chamber of commerce today. We didn’t have the time and energy to test them,” a voice from a sky-grade box interrupted him.
Undoubtedly, it was Xiao Feng.
Lin Rong turned ashen. He said, “Exactly. We were going to tell you about that, but what I said just now is also true.”
“The chamber of commerce will ensure each customer’s benefits, so we also have to tell you that this master is younger than thirty,” said Xiao Feng.
The audience, who had been standing, sat down again with doubt on their faces.
They didn’t know why Xiao Feng was pulling the rug out from under Lin Rong’s feet, but this important information was very valuable for them to judge whether the effect of the Heaven Pulse Elixir could be true.
“If the Heaven Pulse Elixir weren’t so special, I wouldn’t have risked my career for it,” said Lin Rong.
What he had said did make sense. The audience started to think from another perspective and considered him a credible source.
“This is how special the Heaven Pulse Elixir is. So, who wants to authenticate it?” said Yin Shuang.
“I’ll do it!”
The voice came from the same sky-grade box. It was Master Flaming Leaf who had spoken!
