I'll Leave Your Corpse Intact
"Ning Yue, these two cauldrons belong to you now. You can sell them or smash them, I won't ask."
The elder pointed at the two silver boxes on the table.
"Also, when you came in, I said that as long as you can tell me the two medicinal ingredients that are missing in the pill formula, I will give you a great opportunity."
"A great opportunity!" Inside the room, Qian Jun heard the elder's words and stared at Ning Yue in shock.
Could it be that Ning Yue had really deduced the two missing herbs in the pill formula?
That was way too perverted.
The elder was an Eighth Realm Alchemist. If even he could not predict the exact ingredients, how did Ning Yue do it?
"Actually, I've seen this Dan recipe before."
Ning Yue thought about it and felt that it was better to explain.
After all, the elder was so shocked. If he were to go crazy and capture him like a freak, he wouldn't even have tears to cry.
"You've seen it before?!"
Hearing Ning Yue's words, the elder's jaw dropped and his eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets.
Ning Yue had seen such a valuable Dan recipe that had been lost in the mainland for decades?
It was really infuriating to compare oneself to others.
No!
Suddenly, the elder seemed to have remembered something and asked, "Ning Yue, do you have a master?"
From the fact that Ning Yue was able to accurately point out the missing herbs in the elixir formula, it could be seen that Ning Yue had indeed seen the elixir formula for the Soul Enhancing Elixir before. Otherwise, he would not believe that Ning Yue would be able to deduce the 12 missing herbs just based on calculation alone.
Since Ning Yue could easily name the missing ingredients, it was very likely that Ning Yue had a powerful master.
Ning Yue nodded and said, "I do have a master. I saw this Dan recipe by chance."
"I see."
The shock on the old man's face lessened slightly.
If Ning Yue was really that abnormal, then he had really lived all these years like a dog.
"My master isn't in the Great Xia Kingdom recently. I don't know when he will be back, either." Seeing that the elder was about to say something, Ning Yue spoke before the elder could.
"What a pity. I wanted to meet your master."
The elder smiled, "Since I said I would give you a great fortune, I will not go back on my word."
Whoosh!
In the next moment, the old man took out a black token and tossed it to Ning Yue.
Pa!
Ning Yue stretched out his hand and caught the token steadily.
"Xu?"
Looking at the word 'Xu' on the token, Ning Yue was speechless.
Was this the great fortune that the old man had given him?
This was too f * cking nonsensical.
Originally, Ning Yue thought that the old man would at least give him some transcendent-grade essence crystals. He didn't expect for it to be a useless token.
"Alright, the mission is completed. I am going to leave the Great Xia Kingdom."
Seeing that Ning Yue accepted the token, the old man nodded and sent a spiritual message to Ning Yue: "When you are free to go to the Central Continent, you can take this token and look for me at the Xu Clan."
Tsk!
After finishing his statement, the old man tore the void and instantly vanished.
"He left just like that?"
After the old man left, Qian Jun was flabbergasted.
The plot wasn't supposed to be like this.
The deal between the old man and Ning Yue was completed. Logically, he should have gotten 10% of the market price of the two cauldrons, which was 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals.
Now that the old man had left, who was he going to ask for 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals?
"Cough, cough."
Since the old man had left, Qian Jun shifted his attention to Ning Yue.
He coughed dryly and said, "Ning Yue, that old man promised that once the deal is completed, he will give the Cauldron Pavilion 10% of the profits. 10% of the market price of the two cauldrons, 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals. What do you think …"
"You are asking me for 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals?"
Ning Yue pointed at his own nose and said, "Do I look like an idiot?"
"What a joke. How can you look like an idiot?" Qian Jun laughed.
"You are right. I am not an idiot. How can I give you 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals?"
Ning Yue twitched his mouth and pulled Lu Wei's hand as they walked out. At the same time, he said, "I am not the one who promised to give you 10%. If you want transcendent-grade essence crystals, go look for that old man. Don't look for me."
"…"
Qian Jun was exasperated but there was nothing he could do.
Ning Yue was a core disciple of the Danwu College's Sacred Institute. He was merely a leader of the Cauldron Pavilion. To go against Danwu College?
He did not have the guts!
After working for half a day and getting nothing in the end, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his pride.
"Ning Yue, please wait."
Outside the Cauldron Pavilion, Gui Yi approached Ning Yue and said, "I have a question."
"What is it?" Ning Yue stopped and looked at Gui Yi with interest.
Actually, Ning Yue didn't even need to think to guess what Gui Yi wanted to ask.
Without a doubt, she wanted to know what the recipe was on the scroll!
Sure enough, as Ning Yue had expected, Gui Yi asked, "What is the pill recipe on the sheepskin scroll?"
"Eighth-realm Elixir, the Raging Spirit Elixir."
Ning Yue smiled and walked away without looking back.
"Angry Spirit Pill?"
Looking at Ning Yue and Lu Wei's backs, Gui Yi was confused.
The Angry Spirit Pill was indeed a Level Eight Elixir and it also contained the herbs that Ning Yue had mentioned.
However, the Angry Spirit Pill was only a Level Eight Elixir. With the old man's strength, there was no reason that he could not calculate the missing herbs.
After pausing for a while in front of the Cauldron Pavilion, Gui Yi and Ning Yue walked in the same direction.
However, Gui Yi only took a few steps before she turned into an alley.
"Damn it! What the hell is Gao Pi doing! "
After Ning Yue and Gui Yi left, a short cultivator appeared not far from the Cauldron Pavilion.
This short cultivator was the one who had followed Ning Yue in the Yin-Yang Realm!
At this moment, his face was filled with anger. "Hmph! He has been gone for so long and still hasn't returned. He must have gone somewhere to slack off. "
"Forget it, Ning Yue must have returned to Si Kongling's place. I'd better finish off the peak Yuan Core cultivator first before going back to inform Young Master Situ."
After some thought, the short cultivator decided not to follow Ning Yue for the time being. Instead, he chose to kill Gui Yi.
After all, this was the only way he could interrogate Ning Yue about what he had done in the Cauldron Pavilion.
Swoosh!
The short cultivator left as soon as he said he would. He quickly chased after Gui Yi.
Not long after, the short cultivator saw Gui Yi in the alley.
However, Gui Yi's current appearance was a little different from before. Her clothes had been changed to black, and even her appearance had changed a little.
"Who is it!"
The moment the short cultivator appeared, Gui Yi's expression changed and she asked coldly.
"Hehe, you are quite alert. I didn't think that I would be discovered the moment I appeared."
