Hearing the word 'deal', this guy was overjoyed. Man, it had been a long time since they last opened, but now they met a young man. This was a thousand Spirit Stones, it was enough for the brothers to spend for a long time.

"Little brother, there are some items on there that are quite expensive. If you don't pick some of the more expensive ones, then I'll lose something." This is big brother's man said with a smile, his eyes full of cunning and golden light. This guy has been in here for so long, so he's still vigilant.

Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. I know that the business you're doing is done by licking your own life on a blade, so I won't make things difficult for you guys, but you also know that you're asking for a sky-high price. It's a lot more expensive than the actual price.

He said that Lu Ming had randomly swiped a few strange things on the stall.

This guy's eyes were especially crafty as he swept his gaze across this thing. He continuously calculated the value of this thing in his heart, because even if Lu Ming took some things away, it did not seem to be particularly valuable.

The total would only be ten Spirit Stones.

"No problem."

Lu Ming waved his hand and threw out a lot of Spirit Stones from his storage ring, forming a pile of villagers.

"I only know that even if you are truly rich, you cannot be this extravagant. This is a difference of ten times." The old man said so.

"What do you know?" I found out that there seems to be something I want in there, that's why I did such an action. Don't worry, even if I lost, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Lu Ming hummed a song as he spoke. The song he hummed was from the mortal world, so this old fellow naturally had not heard it before.

Although Lu Ming said this, he knew in his heart that he would definitely not do anything that would cause a loss. How could he possibly suffer a loss in a matter like this?

After walking around for a long time, Lu Ming had already bought everything. He did not directly return to the Academy, but went to the cave he had previously found, where the old man immediately floated out. Seeing that Lu Ming had put everything out, he could not help but nod his head.

"Not bad, your speed is quite fast and the quality of your purchases is also not bad. Leave the rest to me."

The old fellow waved his hand, and suddenly, a few flames appeared out of nowhere. When Lu Ming saw the flames, he could not help but turn pale with fright.

"Don't think too much into it, I'm not someone from the fire race." The old man seemed to know what Lu Ming was thinking, and said indifferently. Lu Ming nodded, and suddenly turned pale with fright, this old fellow already knew of fire race, could it be that from ancient times to now, fire race had always been in the history of the inheritance, so why was there no news of him?

This old fogey had burnt everything into a liquid and then merged it all together. In just a short moment, it had fused into a single pill, and the entire process had taken less than an hour.

Lu Ming watched in enchantment. This old fellow's grasp on the entire process of refining pills and handling of the details had already reached a state of perfection. After Lu Ming finished reading, he was not even the slightest bit tired.

"Alright, young man, don't think too much. I've practiced this technique for many years already. Your talent is much greater than mine, so don't worry, I'll teach you. When the time comes, you'll be even better than me."

The old man said with a faint smile.

With that, the old man threw the pill directly at Lu Ming. Lu Ming was about to eat it, but the old man suddenly stopped him.

"Are you sure you want to eat now?"

"Is there a problem with this?" Lu Ming couldn't help but ask in confusion when he saw the old fellow's face.

That's not a problem, it's just that when you eat it, you will feel pain all over your body, and your meridians will very likely rupture, because the energy contained in it is too violent, maybe when the time comes you will just be lying here like a cripple and starve to death.

The old man looked at Lu Ming, and the corner of his mouth revealed an extremely cruel smile. After reading it, Lu Ming shivered.

"You don't have to suspect me. I don't have time to lie to you." After the old man finished speaking, he went back to his ring.

For some reason, this old geezer always liked to stay in this ring.

Lu Ming held the pill in his hand, and hesitated for a moment, but if he had to stomp his foot, he could take all the risks and immediately eat it.

After eating, he quickly sat down cross-legged, but the expected berserk energy did not appear. Instead, it turned into a clear stream that flowed into his stomach and rushed to his surroundings, hiding underneath every meridian. Slowly, nothing happened, and just like that, it smoothly passed.

Lu Ming opened his eyes in especially shock, and after a long while, he still did not react.

"Old man, are you lying to me? Why is there no reaction at all? "

The old man slowly floated out. Seeing that Lu Ming was alright, he revealed an expression of surprise, but mostly disbelief, "How is that possible?"

The old man scratched his head and muttered, "Not good, I'm missing an herb."

What did Lu Ming say?

Missing an herb?

It was fine to eat one dish less when eating and one dish more when eating. One more pill and one less pill would not cause too many problems, but one less medicinal plant less would be a different story.

"Old thing, are you kidding me?" Lu Ming could not help but become infuriated. He jumped up and wanted to grab onto the old man's clothes, but because he was in a state of mind, he was unable to do so.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Aren't you alright now?" The old man felt like he was in the wrong as he continuously dodged.

"Damn you old guy, quickly leave this young master's place." Lu Ming was furious, he immediately took out a sword from his storage ring.

The old man quickly waved his hand and said, "Young people shouldn't be so young. We can discuss if there are any problems."

"Bullshit!"

Lu Ming angrily shouted, "It's not like you don't know what kind of herb is missing from the pill. With such a huge consequence, it's very likely that there will be huge problems in the future, what do you want me to do?"

This old fellow could not afford to offend him, he could only stay in the air to avoid him. Only after a long while did Lu Ming's anger slowly dissipate.

Seeing that, the old man could not help but float down, he looked at Lu Ming and probed: "Are you alright?"

"Scram!"
