Uncle Wu glanced at these grieving and indignant people. Basically, he knew all of them. Strictly speaking, they were all his juniors, and some of them had more or less received his care.
He looked around at the crowd before saying, "I understand everyone's feelings. However, think about it. How long has the Violet Cloud Commerce been established? How reputable has it been all along? Has there ever been a case of fake pills being sold? If there was, could it be that they only sold it to you? Also, what is their purpose in selling fake pills? To earn a little more money? If the Violet Cloud Commerce was such a stupid existence, would it still be able to stand until now?! "
Uncle Wu's tone suddenly became stern, directly speaking to the bottom of everyone's hearts. Immediately, everyone felt that this was indeed the case. Selling fake pills was too unreasonable.
Yu Chengshuang saw that the atmosphere was not right and immediately said, "Uncle Wu's words are not unreasonable. We have also thought about this. However, my brother did indeed die from poisoning after eating the pills from your Violet Cloud Commerce! All the brothers behind me saw it with their own eyes! I do not doubt the Violet Cloud Commerce's reputation. Perhaps some alchemist was careless when refining, or some fellow secretly exchanged fake pills for real ones when selling them. It is not impossible! However, even so, the Violet Cloud Commerce cannot escape responsibility! "
When everyone heard this, they felt that it was indeed reasonable. After all, the Commerce was too big, and anything could happen. Even the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower could not guarantee that every step was accurate.
Uncle Wu was also stunned. He did not dare to guarantee that the fake pills were definitely not sold by the Violet Cloud Commerce.
"Since everyone is uncertain about this matter, we must investigate clearly. Clear the Violet Cloud Commerce's grievances, and seek justice for the dead. "
A silvery and melodious voice sounded. Li Yunxiao's heart stirred slightly, and he revealed a surprised expression. He did not expect such a coincidence. She was also in Ocean Sky Town.
A beautiful purple figure floated over, giving off a luxurious and elegant feeling. Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Qianrong hurriedly went forward to welcome her. "President Jin Xuan!"
The lady who came in was Jin Xuan. Compared to the day they parted, she now had a more noble and steady bearing. Her face did not have the same anxious expression as before. It looked like the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild had safely passed through their crisis.
There were too many people in the shop, so Jin Xuan didn't notice Li Yunxiao. She stared at Yu Chengshuang and coldly said, "Since the matter has been exposed, then we must find out the truth and give everyone an explanation. After all, it's not uncommon for people of the same trade to use despicable means to attack each other. "
Yu Chengshuang said angrily, "You mean I used my brother's life to trick you? As the president of a large Chamber of Commerce, how can you speak so irresponsibly? "
Jin Xuan didn't panic as she calmly said, "I'm only listing one possibility, just like the possibilities you listed. Right now, the most important thing is to restore the truth of the matter and not to casually make accusations."
Yu Chengshuang sneered, "The truth of the matter is that after my brother consumed the pills you bought here, he died from the poison!"
Jin Xuan glanced at the dead body on the ground. It looked like he was indeed dying from the poison. She said, "Where are the pills you bought? Don't tell me you only bought one, there's no more left. "
Yu Chengshuang took out a box and threw it over. He coldly said, "I knew you would say that. These are the eighteen Level Six Blood Clotting Pills we bought at one time before we went out to hunt. There are seventeen left now, take a look!"
Jin Xuan opened the box and took a look. She frowned. This Blood Clotting Pill was indeed a product of the Violet Cloud Commerce. Furthermore, it was refined according to the pill recipe that Li Yunxiao had given her. Its effects were miraculous and it was one of the main pills that they were currently selling.
After confirming it, Jin Xuan felt slightly relieved. This was because the market had been responding well to the Blood Clotting Pill for so long and there had never been any problems with it. It could be seen that this incident was not because of the pill itself. There must be another reason.
She handed the box to Jiang Qianrong and said, "Check the shipping records and find a refiner to verify these seventeen pills."
Jiang Qianrong immediately gave the order. Everyone in the shop was silent. No one made a sound as they watched quietly.
Soon, the account was found. It was indeed from the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild. A trembling arcane refiner was also invited to the front of the shop.
Li Yunxiao looked at him. This refiner was a Level Six Cultivation and seemed to be highly respected.
Jin Xuan said, "Elder Gao, please verify these Blood Clotting Pills."
Old Gao nodded, then took out a pill from the box and placed it in his hand. A wave of Soul Force immediately wrapped around it, and he began to carefully analyze it. From time to time, light flashed from the pill, and he was analyzing its composition.
Yu Chengshuang's expression was also very serious. He stared at the pill without blinking and seemed very nervous.
After ten minutes, Elder Gao's body trembled slightly. It was obvious that he had expended a lot of Soul Power. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and put the pill back. He said, "Lady Jin Xuan, President Qianrong, the composition of this Blood Clotting Pill is exactly the same as our Blood Clotting Pill. There is no problem."
"Haha! Let's see how you explain now! "
Yu Chengshuang laughed and said, "Even your own refiner said that there is no problem with the pill. But my brother died from eating it! This means that this Blood Clotting Pill has a huge flaw! It will produce a deadly poison! "
The crowd was in an uproar. They began to discuss among themselves. Especially those who had already bought the Blood Clotting Pill, they began to complain about returning it.
Jin Xuan's expression also turned ugly. She ordered someone to bring a dog over and fed it a pill on the spot. At first, the dog was still alive and kicking, but after a few moments, it foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground dead. Moreover, its face was green and its body was stiff. It was exactly the same as the dead person!
"Ah! It really is poisonous! "
Some customers couldn't help but exclaim. All of a sudden, all kinds of doubts were raised. The faces of the people from the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild turned pale.
Elder Gao coughed violently. He also understood the seriousness of the matter. He said with a trembling voice, "This old man's strength is limited. My energy has been declining year by year. It is too difficult for me to analyze this Level Six pill. Lady Jin Xuan, you should go to the Heavenly Yuan Merchant Guild and invite an Alchemist Master to identify it."
"Hmph, even if you invite a Level Nine Alchemist Master, it is useless! This pill was produced by your Violet Cloud Merchant Guild. It has not undergone any changes. Even this dog was poisoned to death after eating it. Are you still trying to shirk responsibility? "
Yu Chengshuang was in the right. He had a complacent look on his face. There was no sign of the grief and indignation of his brother's death.
Jin Xuan said calmly, "Elder Gao has also admitted that his body is deteriorating. It is very difficult to appraise a Level Six pill. Moreover, even if Elder Gao identifies the difference between this pill and our Violet Cloud Merchant Guild's Blood Clotting Pill, will you let it go? Wouldn't it be more fair to find a third party Alchemist Master? "
Yu Chengshuang sneered, "I knew you would play tricks. Who doesn't know that the Heavenly Yuan Merchant Guild is your backer. Can you guarantee fairness? You can hire a third party. I have already thought of it for you. I have already sent someone to invite Master Si Deyuan. When Master Si Deyuan's appraisal results are out, let's see what you have to say! "
Everyone from the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild was startled. They seemed to smell a conspiracy.
Master Si Deyuan was an Eighth Level Alchemist. He was hired by the Castellan Residence. Not to mention a hunter leader like Yu Chengshuang, it was not easy for him to meet even the heads of the major Merchant Guilds. Why would he come to the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild to appraise pills for such a small matter?
But with Si Deyuan's status, if he made a judgment, it would almost be the final verdict. There were only three Eighth Level Alchemists in Ocean Sky Town. There were two more in other Merchant Guilds. They were all competitors with the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild. It was impossible to invite them.
Jin Xuan's expression sank into an unprecedented seriousness. She could basically conclude that this was a conspiracy. Moreover, this conspiracy was getting bigger and bigger. It was about to nibble away at their Merchant Guild bit by bit. Although she could see through it, she was powerless to struggle and was being devoured.
"He's here. The Master is here!"
Just as everyone was in shock, a voice came from outside.
An exquisite and luxurious carriage stopped in front of the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild. It was the Castellan Residence's highest class carriage. There were only two in the entire Ocean Sky Town. One was owned by the Castellan, and the other was owned by the Eighth Level Alchemist Si Deyuan.
"It really is the Master's carriage. I've seen it before."
"I didn't think that even Master Si Deyuan would come. I've been in Ocean Sky Town for so many years, but I've never seen the Master's true appearance. Today, I can have a taste of my wish!"
"With Master Si Deyuan in charge, the truth will come to light very soon!"
While everyone was discussing in low voices, two beautiful maids wearing exquisite clothes walked out of the carriage. The two of them carefully supported an old man with white hair that hung down to his shoulders.
Everyone was disappointed when they saw him. Apart from his rosy complexion, this old man looked no different from an ordinary old man. He did not have the elegant demeanor that everyone had imagined him to have.
Although Ocean Sky Town was a large commercial city in the Eastern Territory, it was located at the shore of the East Sea. It was far away from the Spiritual Mountains and Great Rivers of the Eastern Territory. The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was extremely thin. Very few experts were willing to come here. Therefore, those who could be hired were all old men who had no hope of cultivating.
"Master, you're finally here. I hope you can help my brother!"
Yu Chengshuang hurriedly went forward and carefully supported Si Deyuan in as if he was treating his own father.
Although Jin Xuan knew that the situation was not good, she still had to be courteous and respectfully greeted him.
Si Deyuan also responded softly, but when he looked at Jin Xuan, a glimmer of light flashed across his murky eyes. He slowly said, "So it's the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild's First Master. My apologies for not recognizing you!"
Jin Xuan smiled lightly and said, "Master is too polite. It's all the Violet Cloud Merchant Guild's incompetence. Such a small matter has caused Master to personally come. I really feel uneasy. At the same time, I'm also touched by Master's spirit of helping others. "
Her words immediately caused many people to frown, as if they had heard something. With Si Deyuan's status, he should not have been so easily invited. Could it be that there was a problem?
