Wang Daoyuan originally didn't plan on getting involved in this matter. It wasn't that he didn't care about the clan's interests, but that wasn't his duty. If he casually stepped in, it would be a slap to his fourth brother's face.
Since Ninth Great Uncle wanted him to step in, there was no problem. With Wang Daoyuan's talent, if he didn't have a clan, he would probably still be an ordinary person and wouldn't know that he had a space in the spirit pearl.
In his previous life, he didn't have a family, only a master. To have parents and such a big family in this life, Wang Daoyuan's feelings for the clan were deeper than the average person's.
In order to protect the clan's interests, why bother about personal gains and losses?
After thinking for a while, he transmitted his voice to Ninth Great Uncle, "This matter isn't easy to deal with. I want three low-grade tier-2 offensive talismans, one low-grade tier-2 defensive talisman, and one mid-grade tier-2 escape talisman. You can use clan contributions or spirit stones to exchange for them. "
Wang Zhide pondered for a moment before agreeing.
As a low-grade tier-2 talisman master, he could make low-grade tier-2 talismans himself. A mid-grade tier-2 talisman needed to be exchanged in the clan's treasury.
He was an elder, so wasn't it a piece of cake for him to approve a talisman? Compared to his grandson's future, these things were nothing. These talismans weren't given for free. He wouldn't lose anything and wouldn't do any harm to the clan.
Wang Daoyuan also had his own considerations. He wouldn't lose anything by stepping in. At most, he would be hated by the prodigal son of the Liang clan. However, as long as he was in the Wang clan, the Liang clan would hate him. He didn't mind drawing some hatred.
To be able to exchange for a few tier-2 talismans without paying anything, this was a good thing for a Qi Refinement cultivator to use as a trump card. Studying tier-2 talismans would also greatly improve one's talisman crafting skills.
Tier-2 talismans weren't something that could be found on the streets. Tier-2 talisman paper alone wasn't easy to obtain. Moreover, Wang Zhide's success rate in crafting low-grade tier-2 talismans wasn't too high. It was only 30%, barely reaching the minimum standard of a tier-2 talisman master.
Only a small portion of the tier-2 talismans he crafted were sold. Most of them were placed in the clan's treasury for the clan's disciples to exchange for. Moreover, it wasn't something that ordinary people could exchange for. One had to go out to do extremely dangerous, important things, or make a great contribution to the clan.
Now that there was this opportunity, how could Wang Daoyuan give it up?
He walked in front of the prodigal, cupped his hands, bowed, and said, "What would you like to order? Since you are our first customer, I'll give you a 20% discount. "
The prodigal shouted, "Are your ears stuffed with donkey hair? Didn't you hear me say that I'm going to give the dog some spirit pills? "
Wang Daoyuan continued to ask, "I'm slow-witted and didn't understand Young Master's words. Are you giving the elixir to a human or a dog?"
The prodigal said mockingly, "Is this the standard of your Alchemy Seal Pavilion's ushers? It can't even understand the customer's request, so of course I'm going to give the dog some pills. "
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter. Even the prodigal's followers couldn't hold back their laughter.
The prodigal wasn't a fool. He understood that he was being scolded, and he was the one who scolded him. He was about to explode, but when he remembered that he was here to cause trouble for the Wang Clan and not to be beaten up, he suppressed his anger.
Wang Daoyuan saw that he wasn't going to give up, so he continued to say, "Young Master, please forgive me. Since I'm going to give the dog some spirit pills, and this dog customer entered the Alchemy Seal Pavilion first, he's the first customer. Naturally, I'll do business with this dog customer first. Young Master, please wait a moment."
The prodigal said angrily, "Are you making fun of me? What kind of business can a dog do? My request is the dog's request. Quickly give me the spirit pills. "
Wang Daoyuan saw that he couldn't suppress his anger, so he smiled and said, "I'm slow-witted. How is Young Master's request the dog's request? Could it be that Young Master has some relationship with this dog?"
Everyone burst into laughter again.
The prodigal completely lost control. He took out a magic longsword and was about to attack Wang Daoyuan.
How could Wang Zhide just sit there and watch? He released the aura of a peak stage Qi Refining cultivator. The prodigal son was only at the second level of Qi Refinement. Even Wang Daoyuan could slap him to the ground, how could he withstand Wang Zhide's aura?
The prodigal's attack was interrupted. He couldn't stand steadily and almost fell. Luckily, a follower supported him.
Wang Zhide scolded, "If you're here to buy something, this small shop will naturally serve you well. But if you use force here, the Netherworld Sect's law enforcement team will not just be decorations. "
Although the Liang family's patriarch was an elder of the Netherworld Sect, he could only barely squeeze into the upper echelons of the Netherworld Sect. There were many people in the Netherworld Sect who didn't respect him.
Clear Glass City was an important source of funds for the Netherworld Sect. If this prodigal dared to publicly break the city's rule of not using force, even the Liang family's patriarch would find it hard to protect him. Moreover, he was just a prodigal. The Liang family wouldn't pay any price for him.
The prodigal reacted. If he used force just now, he might not be able to keep his life. He was so scared that his face turned pale, and he broke out in cold sweat.
Wang Daoyuan continued to ask, "This small shop is a small business. Only Spirit Nurturing Pills are suitable for dog customers. How many do you need?"
The prodigal was so scared that he couldn't speak. The follower beside him replied, "Twenty will do."
Wang Daoyuan took twenty Spirit Nurturing Pills and said, "Two Spirit Nurturing Pills for one Spirit Stone, a total of ten Spirit Stones. With a twenty percent discount, it'll still cost eight Spirit Stones."
The follower paid the Spirit Stones, supported the prodigal, and led the dog away in a hurry.
Wang Daoyuan added, "Come again next time."
The group of people left at an even faster pace.
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands towards Wang Zhide and Wang Zhihe. "Ninth Uncle, Tenth Uncle, I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the cave residence in the backyard.
Wang Zhihe sighed. "It's a pity that Daoyuan's aptitude isn't good. Otherwise, he'd definitely be the best candidate for the clan leader."
Wang Zhide sighed and said, "It's indeed a pity. This child's talent in talisman crafting is much stronger than mine, and he has deep feelings for the clan. With today's quick-wittedness, plus his experience in human relations far surpassing Dao Cheng, he'll be able to become a shopkeeper after a few years of experience. If he can reach Foundation Establishment, he'll indeed be the best candidate for the clan leader.
Sigh, eight or nine out of ten things don't go your way in life. How can everything go your way? "
At this time, Wang Daoyuan had already returned to the cave residence to complete the monthly talisman crafting mission.
The clan mission required a forty percent success rate, and his success rate in crafting a middle-grade first tier spirit talisman was sixty percent. Among the middle-grade first tier talisman crafters, he was at the top, and this was the result of using an inferior talisman brush.
Now, with the high-grade first tier talisman brush provided by the shop, a conservative estimate of his success rate in crafting a low-grade first tier spirit talisman could reach seventy percent.
After making some preparations, Wang Daoyuan began to draw talismans in seclusion. A high-grade first tier talisman brush was indeed incomparable to an inferior talisman brush.
When using an inferior talisman brush to draw talismans, a large portion of spirit energy would be consumed by the talisman brush. There would even be situations where the spirit energy supply would be interrupted, directly causing the spirit talisman to be scrapped. Moreover, injecting spirit energy into the spirit talisman also required the control of the divine sense. If there was a problem with the talisman brush, it would also lead to excessive consumption of the divine sense.
Due to the consumption of spirit energy and divine sense, Wang Daoyuan could draw talismans continuously for at most two hours before resting. He could draw talismans for a maximum of six hours a day.
When using a high-grade first tier talisman brush, there was no feeling of hindrance when injecting spirit energy into the talisman brush. There was almost no loss of spirit energy in the process of passing through the talisman brush, and there was also no situation of interruption. He was still in high spirits after drawing talismans for ten hours a day.
Ten days later, Wang Daoyuan had used up all three hundred talisman papers. He had produced two hundred and sixty talismans, and his success rate was over eighty percent.
If other talisman crafters were to see Wang Daoyuan's talisman crafting speed and success rate, they would probably be scared to death.
Even a middle-grade first tier talisman master could only craft twenty low-grade first tier spirit talismans a day. Any more than that and the success rate would be affected due to excessive consumption of the divine sense.
However, Wang Daoyuan could craft thirty talismans a day and still had an eighty percent success rate. Ordinary talisman masters simply did not dare to imagine.
This was also due to Wang Daoyuan's powerful divine sense. Perhaps it was because he had reincarnated and did not go through the process of the legendary Underworld, or perhaps it was because of the spirit bead, but Wang Daoyuan's divine sense was very powerful, far surpassing cultivators of the same level. His ability to control spirit energy was also stronger.
He was now at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, and his divine sense was no weaker than that of ordinary seventh level Qi Refinement cultivators.
