Chapter 568: Chapter 565: Continuous Success in Pill Formation_1
Yang Chen waited outside the Pill Refining Room, and because of the previous incident with the Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills, many alchemists tried to strike up a conversation with him, including Yu Min’s friend. It seemed that everyone wanted to get to know him.
This made Yang Chen feel slightly embarrassed, and just when he didn’t know what to do, Yu Min’s friend exclaimed, “Elder Wen!”
The newcomer was none other than Elder Wen. She greeted Yang Chen with a friendly smile, “May I know if this is Young Master Yang?”
“Junior Yang Chen, greetings to Senior Wen.” Seeing the woman’s cultivation level, Yang Chen quickly greeted her.
Not surprisingly, this woman was at least a master in the True Martial Realm with seven or eight layers, not to be underestimated.
Wen Piaoxue waved her sleeve gracefully, “Fellow alchemists, Yang Chen still has business with our Chamber of Commerce. Please, make way.”
Although these alchemists wanted to befriend Yang Chen, seeing Wen Piaoxue saying so, they naturally didn’t say anything else and left.
Wen Piaoxue looked at Yang Chen with a soft and approachable tone, “Young Master Yang, from now on, I will personally attend to you. Yu Min told me that you are in urgent need of spirit stones recently?”
Yang Chen replied truthfully, “Senior Wen is right, I’ve been in need of spirit stones lately.”
“In that case, our Chamber just had a pleasant transaction with Young Master Yang and we have seen his character. If Young Master Yang needs spirit stones, I can, on my authority, lend some to him,” Wen Piaoxue said with a bright smile, showing her talent in winning people’s hearts.
Yang Chen, of course, understood Wen Piaoxue’s intention to win him over.
A pill refiner like him who could refine Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills at will, would he really be afraid of not being able to pay back his debts?
If he agreed to Wen Piaoxue’s proposal, he would owe Pill Heart Commerce a favor.
Yang Chen didn’t like owing people anything. Listening to Wen Piaoxue, he directly replied, “Senior Wen, although I am in urgent need of spirit stones, it’s not that desperate. Now that my pill-refining skills are in high demand, I can refine more Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills. So, I will just accept your kind intentions.”
Seeing that Yang Chen had not agreed to her proposition, Wen Piaoxue knew she couldn’t rush things.
Moreover, she wanted to see if Yang Chen’s abilities were just a fluke or if he was truly skilled.
If Yang Chen’s second batch of pills was still as good as the first, she would have to win him over.
With this thought, Wen Piaoxue directly instructed Yu Min’s friend, “Caiyue, go fetch the materials for the Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills, and return Young Master Yang’s collateral as well.”
“Senior Wen, what are you…” Yang Chen looked puzzled.
“Young Master Yang, since you’ve already refined a batch of Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills, there’s no need for the collateral in the second batch,” Wen Piaoxue explained.
Yang Chen was stunned, “Senior, aren’t you afraid that I might destroy the furnace?”
“Then let’s just assume that our Chamber has bad luck,” said Wen Piaoxue, unfazed.
This made Yang Chen laugh.
Not to mention anything else, Wen Piaoxue’s courage and attitude spoke for the prospect of Pill Heart Commerce.
His expectations for Pill Heart Commerce grew higher, and at the same time, he respected Wen Piaoxue even more.
As Wen Piaoxue said, when Caiyue returned, she brought the God Piercing Nail and sufficient materials for three Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile.
It must have been Wen Piaoxue who sent a sound transmission to Caiyue just now, otherwise, how could Caiyue have brought out materials for three Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills at once? Clearly, she wanted him to refine three more regardless of how many spirit stones he needed.
Did Wen Piaoxue have such faith in him?
Thinking about it, Yang Chen confidently smiled, “Senior Wen, I’ll go refine the pills now.”
“Wishing Young Master Yang success in advance,” Wen Piaoxue said with a salute.
Yang Chen didn’t bother with pleasantries and headed straight into the Pill Refining Room.
When seeing Yang Chen entering the Pill Refining Room, Caiyue couldn’t help but ask, “Elder Wen, you instructed me to give Yang Chen materials for three elixirs at once… What if he was just lucky before?”
“For alchemists of Tier 3 or Tier 4, luck might be a factor, but for a master of Grade 6, could there really be such a thing as luck? Besides, our Chamber can afford the cost of three Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills,” Wen Piaoxue said, “I want Yang Chen to see our Chamber’s generosity and leave a good impression on him. Considering this, the cost of the elixir ingredients is well worth it.”
Upon hearing Wen Piaoxue’s explanation, Caiyue suddenly understood and said, “Elder Wen, you are truly farsighted.”
Refining pills in the Pill Refining Room was a breeze for Yang Chen with his pill-refining skills, especially the Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills.
“First furnace, success!” Yang Chen exclaimed, smiling.
Looking at the batch of Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills, Yang Chen remarked, “The facilities here are indeed better. There’s no such place like this in North Mountain County for alchemists to refine pills with plentiful materials. This Changning County has given me another place to refine pills!”
Alchemists never lacked spirit stones.
A sixth-grade elixir could be sold for a sky-high price in the outside world.
“Pill Heart Commerce really knows how to do business. Since that’s the case, let’s give them a bargain this time. With three furnaces of pills, Pill Heart Commerce, you have met me, Yang Chen. If it were someone else, I wouldn’t guarantee the success of every furnace,” Yang Chen said, his smile exuding confidence.
Three hours later.
Yang Chen opened the Pill Refining Room, and the fragrance of pills flowed out, reaching Wen Piaoxue’s nose.
Wen Piaoxue’s nose was sensitive, and as soon as she smelled the pill fragrance, her eyes lit up as her gaze fixed upon Yang Chen leaving the Pill Refining Room.
“Senior Wen.” Yang Chen bowed.
“Young Master Yang, it seems that the pills are successful?” Wen Piaoxue asked with a smile.
“Fortunately, I didn’t fail!” Yang Chen flipped his hand, revealing six Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills.
When the six Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills appeared, Wen Piaoxue was momentarily stunned despite having prepared herself for the sight. However, due to her status, she quickly recovered.
However, the others couldn’t handle it.
Especially Fang Lan and Cui Ju, who were at a loss for words when they saw the six Dragon and Tiger Prolonging Life Pills.
Now, they were filled with regrets.
A sixth-grade alchemist!
They had dared to speak rudely and attempted to harm a sixth-grade alchemist!
If they had befriended him instead of belittling Yang Chen back then, Yang Chen might have given them some pills and they could have benefitted immensely. With the help of a sixth-grade alchemist, they might even be able to escape their slave status.
However, unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now!
