Hearing this, the crowd relaxed. After all, if the Cool Breeze Faction managed to get their hands on the pill formula, they would never have the chance to buy it!
However, Wei Yiyi, who hadn't said a single word, couldn't help but roll her eyes.
A nobody?
Afraid to compete with the Cool Breeze Faction?
Was she sure she was talking about him? Others might not know Gu Ruoyun's trump card, but how could she not know? Not to mention the two powerful men she had hidden in the backyard, just the martial king level spiritual beast Baobao alone could probably break into the Cool Breeze Faction, right?
"Ahem!" Shopkeeper Zhao was also shocked by her words. He coughed dryly and said with an awkward expression, "Everyone, I can give you some time to prepare some money. Come here within a month to buy the pills. If you don't come within a month, your spot will belong to someone else. You can go back now."
The crowd stood up and left one by one. Some of them had prepared enough money and bought the pills. As for the others, they still needed to gather some money …
Soon, only Shopkeeper Zhao, Gu Ruoyun and Wei Yiyi were left in Hundred Herb Hall.
"Eldest Miss, you're really something. You actually gave Gu Xianglin a fake pill formula. By the time he finds out, it'll be too late." Shopkeeper Zhao laughed heartily and looked at Gu Ruoyun with admiration.
Gu Ruoyun smiled: "Who told you that the pill formula was fake?"
"Uh."
Shopkeeper Zhao was stunned. He had always thought that Gu Ruoyun had used a fake pill formula to trick Gu Xianglin. He never thought that she would actually give him the pill formula.
"Three years ago, when we auctioned the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill, we didn't attract the attention of any powerful forces. It seems that some powerful forces forcefully suppressed the news, so it didn't spread further. For example, the Medicine Order doesn't know that the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill has appeared in Azure Dragon Country … but it wasn't easy for them to let us live in peace for three years. If news of the Longevity Pill gets out, Wei Yiyi, what do you think will happen?"
Wei Yiyi thought for a moment: "Although the Longevity Pill isn't a pill that helps cultivators cultivate, it's still a pill. For example, the Medicine Order — as long as a pill appears, they definitely won't let it go! At that time, they'll be hunted down by many powerful cultivators! Besides, a fake pill formula might be able to deceive the Cool Breeze Faction, but it's useless against a force like the Medicine Order! "
Back then, when her Master had given her the Treasury of Medicine, she had been framed by the adulterous couple from the Medicine Order. Furthermore, the pill formula in Gu Ruoyun's hands, how could they possibly let it go?
"That's right," Gu Ruoyun nodded, "I've put the Longevity Pills up for sale because the Devil Sect needs a lot of gold to support its development. Pills are the fastest way to help me gather money. However, this will become a hot potato. If someone is willing to accept it, why wouldn't I give it to them?"
These words were very reasonable, but Shopkeeper Zhao still felt that there were some problems. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Eldest Miss, what if the people of the Cool Breeze Faction managed to research the pill formula, then …"
"The pill formula I gave him is indeed real. It's just that I changed the order of the medicinal herbs a little. Furthermore, if there's no one to guide them in refining pills, they won't be able to figure it out even if they're given a few hundred years. If they're not careful, they'll be blown to pieces! Otherwise, it would have been impossible for so many years for no one to refine a pill! This is not only because they lack the formula, but also because they don't know how to refine it! "
