Chapter 46: Control

At this moment, Feng Qingya had her first doubts about her charm.They had already made physical contact, yet Su Jingzhen still didn’t have any reaction?

Was this guy really a cultivation newbie?

She couldn’t help but suspect that Su Jingzhen was an old monster hiding behind a mask, pretending to be innocent.

Her inner thoughts didn’t affect the professional smile on Feng Qingya’s face.

As she opened the jade bottle, a fragrance that touched the heart and refreshed the spirit wafted out.

Feng Qingya was surprised once again.

She knew that Su Jingzhen had bought the Green Spirit Pill formula and materials just yesterday.

She didn’t expect that today, he would be able to produce fifteen high-quality Green Spirit Pills.

She was once again shocked by Su Jingzhen’s alchemy talent.

Moreover, at this moment, she subconsciously thought that these fifteen Green Spirit Pills were the product of the fifty batches of materials.

If she knew that Su Jingzhen had only used thirty batches of materials to produce twenty-five high-quality Green Spirit Pills…

She would be even more astonished.

At this moment, Feng Qingya’s surface remained calm, with a gentle smile, saying, “In recent days, the consumption of pills and other items has indeed been increasing.”

“As I mentioned to the master earlier, as long as the master trades at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, all items will be priced at the highest rate.”

“This Green Spirit Pill is worth fifteen lower-grade spirit stones, and fifteen pills would be two hundred twenty-five spirit stones in total.”

“Additionally, these two inferior pills would be worth ten lower-grade spirit stones, making a total of two hundred thirty-five lower-grade spirit stones. What do you think, Master?”

Su Jingzhen nodded silently, but his heart was excited.

He knew that Green Spirit Pills were more expensive than Qi-replenishing Pills, but he didn’t expect that one pill would be worth five lower-grade spirit stones.

This was far beyond his expectations, and he had no complaints.

Both parties nodded, and the transaction was completed!

Feng Qingya efficiently settled the payment of two hundred thirty-five lower-grade spirit stones to Su Jingzhen.

Then, Su Jingzhen asked again, “About the matter I entrusted to Miss Feng yesterday, has there been any progress?”

He was asking about it just one day later, which seemed a bit urgent.

But there was no way around it; the situation was indeed urgent.

After all, he didn’t know what would happen tomorrow.

However, after hearing this, Feng Qingya’s smile became even more radiant.

“Even if the master didn’t ask, I was about to tell you about this matter.”

“Last night, a batch of goods arrived from Yunmeng City.”

“I had been checking all night and indeed found something that seemed to roughly match the master’s requirements.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen’s heart became even more excited.

Indeed, Treasure Gathering Pavilion was living up to its reputation.

It was worth his one-day wait.

However, Su Jingzhen, having lived two lifetimes, didn’t show any emotional fluctuations at this moment.

He knew that if he showed too much excitement, the price might skyrocket.

Although Feng Qingya had been pretending to be friendly in front of him, that was because he was valuable to her.

Su Jingzhen wouldn’t forget that Treasure Gathering Pavilion was a merchant force, and Feng Qingya was essentially a merchant.

If there was no profit, would she care about him?

“Oh? You’ve found it so quickly? Indeed, Treasure Gathering Pavilion is impressive.”

“I wonder what kind of thing it is. Miss Feng, can you show it to me?”

As Su Jingzhen spoke, his tone remained calm, without revealing his eagerness.

Feng Qingya’s smile remained on her face, but a hint of cunning appeared in her eyes.

“I apologize, Master, but to see that thing, you might need to follow me to the second floor.”

“You know, some things aren’t convenient to trade on the first floor.”

Su Jingzhen had been too calm, and Feng Qingya didn’t know what kind of attitude he had.

But this was also a test, and intentionally mentioning that it couldn’t be traded on the first floor was a hint that the thing he wanted wasn’t cheap.

After speaking, Feng Qingya smiled at Su Jingzhen, not urging him, waiting for his response. Seaʀch* The NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Su Jingzhen thought to himself, “This woman is formidable.”

But this time, he had no choice but to be led by her.

If the Spirit Awakening Ceremony was delayed for a few more days, he might have left Treasure Gathering Pavilion directly.

He would also show Feng Qingya his attitude, but his time was limited.

Seeing Su Jingzhen’s hesitation, Feng Qingya added, “Even if the master isn’t present, with the token in your hand, you can still access the second floor without any obstacles.”

“So, Master, you don’t need to worry.”

At this point, Su Jingzhen didn’t hesitate, nodded, and then exited the window.

“Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s first floor is just for buying and selling some basic items. Did you think you could buy the entire Treasure Gathering Pavilion?”

“You’ve been dawdling for so long, are you trying to hook up with a female disciple of Treasure Gathering Pavilion?”

“Some people are just trying to attract attention, without considering the time and place.”

“……”

After Su Jingzhen exited the window, without the restriction of the guardian, many people behind him started scolding him.

The time Su Jingzhen had wasted wasn’t short, and it had sparked a lot of opinions among the crowd.

However, it was also thanks to his black robe that the crowd only dared to scold him verbally, without daring to take any action.

After all, no one knew what kind of identity the person in black robes walking in front of them had.

At this moment Su Jingzhen didn’t respond to the scolding at all.

He silently walked towards the staircase leading to the second floor, which was enough to shut everyone up.

“This…this…”

“Can he really go up to the second floor?”

“He shouldn’t be able to, or he wouldn’t have wasted so much time at the first-floor window.”

“If he’s really a big shot, he wouldn’t need to play with us like this on the first floor…”

“……”

The people who had been scolding him earlier were still murmuring quietly.

They could only hope that Su Jingzhen was just trying to attract attention.

Otherwise, someone who could access the second floor of Treasure Gathering Pavilion was not someone they could afford to offend.

Without paying attention to what those people were thinking, Su Jingzhen walked to the staircase.

He sensed the energy restriction and, without making a sound, placed the token on it, and the restriction instantly disappeared.

Although he was a bit nervous, he didn’t hesitate and directly stepped up to the second floor.

“He…he really went up.”

“Quick, quick, hurry up and complete the transaction, and hurry out of here.”

“Maybe this master was in a good mood earlier, which is why he didn’t bother with us, but who knows what will happen when he comes back down?”

“……”

The crowd instantly became tense, and some even directly left Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

The fear inspired by the power gap between cultivators and the hierarchy was evident.

After all, the consequences of speaking out of turn were often severe…
