City Lord's residence.
Lu Deshui sat at the head of the table irritably.
As the lord of a city, he didn't lack medicinal herbs, but he spent millions to buy them for his son. The more he thought about it, the angrier and more aggrieved he became.
Sigh.
City Lord Lu sighed.
At this point, he could only find out that guy's identity as soon as possible. If he didn't have any ability, it wouldn't be too late to find a way to vent his anger.
"City Lord."
A subordinate hurriedly came in and said, "A Grandmaster of the Dan Hall is here!"
"Oh … …" City Lord Lu stood up and asked in surprise, "Who is visiting?"
Because of his frustration, his thoughts were a little short-circuited.
"A Grandmaster of the Dan Hall!"
Swish!
City Lord Lu walked out of the hall as fast as he could. When he saw the black-robed man standing in front of the door, his irritation and worry were instantly replaced by a rich smile. As he walked forward, he cupped his hands and said, "A Grandmaster of the Dan Hall is here, your presence brings light to my humble dwelling!"
"City Lord Lu."
The black-robed middle-aged man said lightly, "Your people are a little rude."
He was very unhappy now because as an alchemy grandmaster from the Dan Hall, he would be warmly welcomed in any city, but he was almost locked up as a criminal when he came to Lin Yuan City.
"What's going on?"
City Lord Lu was also a person who had experienced great storms and waves. He realized that something must have happened from the other party's expression and words, so he hurriedly asked his subordinate. After learning the cause and effect, he hurriedly apologized, "Misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding!"
Although a neutral organization like the Dan Hall might not be strong in martial arts, because they knew alchemy, their connections and relationships were unimaginable. It was said that they also had close relations with many great sects.
Although Lu Deshui was the lord of a city, he was inferior in front of the Xuan sects, so he naturally didn't dare to offend the people of the Dan Hall.
The black-robed middle-aged man was not a calculative person. After being invited into the hall and sitting at the head of the table, he returned to the topic at hand, "City Lord Lu, I passed by a treasure land this time and smelled a rather special medicinal herb smell, so I came to investigate."
"Special medicinal herbs?"
Lu Deshui was a little confused.
There were many medicinal herb shops in Lin Yuan City, but most of them were common goods and nothing special. How did they attract this grandmaster?
There was only one word for a Grandmaster of the Dan Hall — — professional.
Therefore, City Lord Lu didn't think that the medicinal herbs sold in his city could catch his eye.
"Moreover."
The black-robed middle-aged man added.
"This …"
Lu Deshui was even more puzzled.
The black-robed middle-aged man said, "City Lord Lu need not worry. If your city really has good herbs, I will buy them at a price higher than the market price!"
His surname was Feng …
Lu Deshui almost fell off his chair in surprise, "Could Your Excellency be one of the eight Chief Alchemists of the Alchemy Hall, Feng Gui Chen?"
He did not know much about the Alchemy Hall, but he had naturally heard of the famous Eight Chief Alchemists in the Upper Realm. He especially remembered their surnames, which were Feng Chen, Chu Wei, Jiang Shen, and Han Yang.
Among them, the first was Feng Gui Chen.
It was said that this person was born with the ability to distinguish the strength of medicinal herbs. He didn't even need to touch them. He could tell just by looking.
As for the other seven chief alchemists, they had extremely high attainments in the Dao of Alchemy. Many Daoist and Immortal Sects fought to hire them as the alchemists of their sects.
"Not bad."
The black-robed middle-aged man admitted.
"So it's Senior Feng. Forgive my rudeness!"
City Lord Lu hurriedly got up and bowed again. The reverence in his eyes was even stronger than before.
One of the Eight Chief Alchemists of the Alchemy Hall was definitely a big shot. A small City Lord like him could not afford to offend him.
"City Lord Lu, let's get down to business," Feng Gui Chen said.
Revealing his true identity was not to show off, but to make him open his heart and not hide the herbs.
City Lord Lu's expression was a bit interesting.
He knew better than anyone what kind of herbs his family had. If the Alchemy Hall's Chief Alchemist insisted on looking at herbs, wouldn't it be bad luck if he angered him?
Wait a minute!
At this moment, Lu Deshui suddenly remembered the tens of thousands of herbs he had spent three million to buy to save his son, so he muttered in his heart, "Senior Feng isn't talking about these herbs, right?"
Seeing him hesitate, Feng Gui Chen said with displeasure, "City Lord Lu, are you worried that this Feng will take away the herbs without paying?"
"No, no, no!"
Lu Deshui hurriedly said, "This Lu didn't mean that, it's just …"
He paused for a moment before carefully saying, "My Lin Yuan City is not a city that mainly deals in herbs, so I'm afraid that the herbs we take out will not be to your liking."
He wasn't sure if the herbs he had just bought were the special herbs the other party was talking about, so he made a statement in advance to avoid offending the other party.
"It's fine."
Feng Gui Chen said, "This Feng is not an unreasonable person."
Lu Deshui relaxed and only then did he take out the Space Ring he had bought from Jun Changxiao. He picked out a few herbs and placed them on the table, "Senior Feng, the herbs we sell in the city are all very ordinary. If you insist on mentioning something special, I'm afraid it's only …"
"Shua!"
Before he could finish speaking, several herbs had already flown out.
Just the fact that this Chief Alchemist was able to snatch them from a distance without the slightest fluctuation of True Energy made City Lord Lu believe that not only was this Chief Alchemist's Alchemy Dao profound, but his Martial Dao cultivation was also extraordinary!
Several herbs were placed on Feng Gui Chen's table, but he didn't touch them. Instead, he stared at them with rapt attention, the expression on his face becoming dull at first before gradually turning into one of ecstasy, "The extremely common Heavenly Emperor Grass on the market actually contains such strong World Attribute energy, it's incredible!"
What also shocked him were the Jade Heaven Armor Fungus, Nine Furnace Spirit Fish Fruit, and other herbs.
The energy contained in each of these herbs was dozens of times higher than the most common herbs in the world. If they were to be classified as World Treasures, they would definitely belong to the Mysterious Grade!
As the Chief Alchemist, Feng Gui Chen must have seen herbs of even higher grades. The reason he was so excited was because ordinary herbs were at the level of World Treasures. If they were used in Alchemy, they could definitely play an unimaginable role!
Seeing the look of ecstasy on his face, Lu Deshui couldn't help muttering in his heart, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
City Lord Lu, who didn't know anything about alchemy, naturally didn't know how much value Jun Chang Xiao's medicinal herbs had in refining pills.
[It's fine!]
Feng Gui Chen understood!
He hurriedly asked, "City Lord Lu, how did you grow these herbs?"
The Heavenly Emperor Grass and other herbs arranged on the table were all common herbs. Even if they were wild, it was impossible for them to contain so much energy, so there was only one possibility, they were definitely artificially grown using some unknown method!
"Uh …"
Lu Deshui said awkwardly, "I won't hide it from Senior Feng, these herbs were not grown by this Lu, they were bought from someone else."
"Who!?"
Feng Gui Chen asked anxiously.
Someone who could grow ordinary herbs into World Treasures was definitely a top Grandmaster!
"The ones who sold these herbs were a young couple. As for their identity, this Lu doesn't know and is still actively investigating," Lu Deshui said honestly.
"A young couple?"
Feng Gui Chen asked, "Do they have any obvious characteristics?"
Since they could grow such World Treasures, they might be some kind of hermit who lived in seclusion. If he found them, he would definitely pay them a visit.
Lu Deshui thought for a moment and said, "The man is about twenty or thirty years old and looks very weak, while the woman is extremely beautiful … That's right! She looks very similar to Senior's black robe! "
Feng Gui Chen memorized these characteristics and asked, "City Lord Lu, how many herbs did you sell?"
Lu Deshui hurriedly placed several Space Rings on the table and said, "They are all here, about forty to fifty thousand."
Feng Gui Chen released his spiritual sense and entered them one by one. After confirming that the herbs inside were all World Treasures, he said in shock, "There are so many of them, could it be that this special planting technique can be mass-produced?"
"City Lord Lu, how much did you spend?"
"Three million Profound Stones."
Feng Gui Chen frowned when he heard this.
City Lord Lu howled in his heart, "He must be wondering if I'm stupid and have too much money!"
"From a professional point of view, three million Profound Stones for these herbs is a bit cheap," Feng Gui Chen said.
"Ah?"
City Lord Lu was stunned.
"How about this." Feng Gui Chen took out several Space Rings and placed them on the table, saying, "This Feng is willing to buy these herbs for five million Profound Stones, does City Lord Lu agree?"
"I … I agree!"
… …
My name is Lu Deshui.
My son was abused by a hateful guy who forced me to spend three million Profound Stones to buy a large batch of herbs. I was so angry that I almost vomited blood on the spot, but in the end, I sold them to the Chief Alchemist of the World Hall and made two million Profound Stones!
Little friend.
No matter where you are, I will find you!
