"How is it? Do you think that the things you gave me are enough? Or do you think that I need the things you mentioned? "
"Uh …"
The old man was dumbfounded. If he didn't see this bottle of Water Returning Pills, he wouldn't have thought that it was embarrassing. However, it was different now. He saw the Water Returning Pill and it was of such a high grade. He knew that he didn't have the ability to refine such a high grade pill. Especially the pill patterns on the pill, it made him feel so ashamed that he wanted to die.
Why would a person who could casually take out such a pill care about those lousy pills and sixth-tier spiritual herbs?
Heh, what a joke. Only a ghost would want that kind of trash.
Thinking about the conditions that he used to expel the old man, he felt that it was ridiculous. If there was a hole in the ground, he would want to crawl into it. It was too embarrassing.
Thinking about it, he raised his head and looked at Lin Ray. He cupped his hands and said, "Senior, I was rash just now."
As he spoke, he placed the pill bottle in his hands into his bosom. "Senior, how about this. Tell me, what do you fancy in my Alchemy Guild? As long as you say it, this junior will definitely hand it over to you. Even if it's this junior's position as the Alchemy Guild's president, as long as you want it, this junior will willingly step down."
"President, you can't."
"That's right, President. If the higher-ups investigate this matter, we won't be able to bear the consequences."
"President, please think twice. You have never been a reckless person. Why are you … so muddle-headed today?"
"Reconsider."
When the surrounding alchemists heard the old man's words, they were unwilling and tried to stop him. They were all red in the face.
Hearing the discussion, the old man was stunned. He glanced at the crowd and said, "All of you, shut up. Look at what you have become."
"What's wrong? Have I given you guys too much face that you've forgotten your surname and name?"
"All of you are over a thousand years old. In front of this senior, you have no right to speak."
As he spoke, the president released his aura. It had to be said that he had a lot of authority as the president. When he roared, everyone fell silent. Their eyes darted around to avoid the old man's eyes, not daring to look him in the eye.
"Alright, all of you, don't give in to me at all. Hurry up and scram. Go back and reflect on your actions. Without my orders, none of you are allowed to come out."
"Do you understand?"
Everyone's expression changed drastically, but no one dared to refute. They all nodded heavily. "Un … Understood, President!"
With that, he turned to leave. Even Yuan Jun, who had been addicted to the elixirs given by Lin Ray, was ready to leave.
Seeing everyone turn around, Lin Ray frowned and said coldly, "Did I allow you to leave?"
The moment these words came out, the old man's body trembled. Just now, he had been so focused on reprimanding that he had forgotten that Lin Ray was still here. When he thought of how powerful Lin Ray was, he broke out in a cold sweat. He bowed to Lin Ray and said, "Senior, junior … junior didn't want to …"
"Yuan Jun, stay. The rest of you can scram." Before the old man could finish his words, he interrupted him.
"Hmm? Yuan Jun? "
"Me?"
"Her?"
At this moment, whether it was the old man, Yuan Jun, or those arrogant alchemists, they were all stunned. What's going on?
Yuan Jun was even more unaware. Her face was full of questions. Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
"Se … Senior, Yuan Jun is still young. If she had offended you in any way, then … junior will apologize to you here. Little Jun, she …"
"Sigh!" Hearing the old man's nagging voice, Lin Ray shook his head helplessly. What the f * ck was he thinking? Didn't I just want a maid to serve me temporarily? It's not like I want to do anything to her. Seriously.
Besides, do I look like a bad person? Do I look like a hooligan?
Causing trouble!
Thinking of this, he looked up at Yuan Jun with a serious and clear expression. He said indifferently, "Yuan Jun, I'm going to the secluded valley to participate in the Dragon Spring Secret Realm. I need someone to take care of some trivial matters along the way. I wonder if … you're willing to follow me."
"Of course. As a reward for your efforts during this period, I have a Nine Dragons Branch Technique here. It's specifically for alchemy!"
In order to ensure Yuan Jun's agreement, Lin Ray could only do this. Although he wasn't sure if the secret technique of the Holy World would work here, he still had to try.
"I …"
Yuan Jun hesitated. There was no reason, just because …
"Motherf * cker, in any case, this old lady is a real alchemist. Is there anyone like you? What do you take this old lady for? A maid? She couldn't help but think in her heart. However, she had an apologetic smile on her face.
"I'm sorry. I have something important to do during this period, so it's not convenient for me to be in my original form. So, I'm sorry, senior. I might …" She didn't continue.
Hearing this, Lin Ray obviously understood what she meant. Thus, he shook his head helplessly and could only let it go.
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't force you." As he spoke, his gaze landed on the old man again. He quickly said, "Today's matter, you can do as you see fit. I don't lack anything else, but … I don't have much Netherworld Jade. You can give it to me as you see fit!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out. When Lin Ray disappeared, his voice exploded in everyone's ears. "You can find where I live. Remember, I don't care about low-grade Netherworld Jade."
"Oh, right. This time, I'm looking for a Bloodline Grass in your Alchemy Guild. If you have it, send it to me as per Netherworld Jade's wishes. If you don't have it, mobilize the entire Alchemy Guild. At the same time, inform your high-level Alchemy Guild that as long as you can help me find the Bloodline Grass, I promise to give you a Third Grade Saint Grade Realm Breaking Pellet."
"Remember, time is limited. If you exceed the time limit, I don't need to tell you the consequences. You should know in your hearts." After saying that, his voice became formless.
"Putong." After confirming that Lin Ray had left, the old man couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground. At this moment, he was no longer as calm as before. Instead, he was in a sorry state.
"Do as you see fit. As for your big brother, just give me a random number. Do as you see fit. How do you want me to give you? If I give you too much, my heart will ache. If I give you too little, I'll suffer."
"What's the Bloodline Grass? Is it something special?"
For a moment, the old man was worried. He never thought that a day like this would come.
"Uh … President, why don't we ask the higher-ups? Otherwise, do we really have to do as that person said?" The middle-aged Alchemist on the side saw the old man in such a state and stepped forward to voice his opinion.
"Report?"
He turned to look at the middle-aged Alchemist. Suddenly, his face turned cold. "Didn't you see the other party's cultivation? I'm afraid that only the Alchemy Guild of a first-grade city can come forward to solve this. Moreover, I'm not sure if I can do it. "
"Then … then what should we do? Are we, the Alchemy Guild, really going to give that person the Nether Jade? Moreover … "At this point, the middle-aged Alchemist scratched his head awkwardly and continued," We've never heard of the Bloodline Grass. "
"Uh …"
Everyone: "…"
Indeed, as Alchemists, they had never heard of the Bloodline Grass.
"Forget it, we'll think of a way to deal with the Nether Jade ourselves. As for the Bloodline Grass, I'll write a letter to my good friends in a while and ask them to keep an eye out for it."
As he spoke, his gaze swept across the Alchemists around him. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. The bright expression in his eyes made everyone feel weak.
"Uh … President … President, if you have something to say, just say it. We're not used to you looking at us like this!" The Origin Lord spoke up.
"That's right, President. It's better if you act like usual. We're not used to you being like this."
"That's right, that's right!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. In response, the old man rolled his eyes and returned to normal. He stretched out his hand and said to everyone, "Come on, don't help us. You've all heard what that senior said just now. We don't want low-grade Nether Jade, and middle-grade Nether Jade is not suitable either."
As soon as he said that, everyone's expression changed and cursed in their hearts. Everyone knew what the old man was up to.
However, they knew that it was not a wise move to make at this time.
"Uh … that, President, what are you talking about? Didn't you agree to give us the Nether Jade? Moreover, we're just Alchemists. How could we have high-grade Nether Jade?"
"Yes, yes, high-grade Nether Jade is very precious. How could we have it? Even if we had it, it would be used for our cultivation!"
"That's right, President. Don't tell me you're going to do the same. You promised us before. Isn't it inappropriate for you to look for us now?"
"How about this? We don't have high-grade Nether Jade, but we have 500,000 low-grade Nether Jade. What do you think?"
Every time they said a word, the old man's face would turn gloomy. Now, when he heard the words' 500,000 low-grade Nether Jade ', his face turned cold.
If expressions could freeze people to death, then the old man's cold expression could freeze everyone present to death.
"Are you … sure you don't have it?"
"No … no!" Everyone nodded with certainty. They could throw away their integrity, but they couldn't give them high-grade Nether Jade.
"Good!"
Looking at everyone, the old man nodded and said with a 'you've done a good job' expression, "Since you're all like this, then I won't care about your feelings anymore!"
As he spoke, a bill suddenly appeared in his hand. He flipped it open and looked at the alchemist who said he didn't have it. He read, "Wang Pei, last year, you used the materials of the Alchemist Guild to refine elixirs. In the end, you made a deal with the Wang Clan in the imperial capital and obtained 100,000 high-grade Nether Jade. You handed over 16,000 high-grade Nether Jade to the Alchemist Guild, and the remaining 84,000 are missing."
"Last year, you made a deal with the Liu Clan in the imperial capital of the Tianshui Empire and obtained 260,000 high-grade Nether Jade. You handed over 60,000 high-grade Nether Jade, and the remaining 200,000 are missing."
"Two years ago …"
"Stop, stop, stop. President, I suddenly feel that you did the right thing. When the Alchemist Guild is in danger, it is time for us to help. I … I'll give it to you."
As he spoke, he hesitated and took out a storage ring. He handed it to the old man and said, "President, there are 500,000 high-grade Nether Jade in here."
"Oh? 500,000? "Looking at the storage ring, the old man narrowed his eyes.
Looking at the old man's face, the alchemist wanted to cry. 500,000 high-grade Nether Jade, but it was still not enough!
His heart was filled with bitterness, but … he squeezed out an extremely ugly smile. He took out another storage ring and said, "President, this is the last of my savings."
"It adds up to 1,000,000 high-grade Nether Jade. It's really the last of my savings." As he spoke, the alchemist didn't forget to wipe off two drops of tears.
Looking at the two storage rings in his hand, the old man nodded with satisfaction. "That's enough. Although I know you have more than this, 1,000,000 … En, it's almost enough."
Hearing this, the Alchemist burst into tears. While crying, he thanked the old man profusely.
"Thank you, President. Thank you for showing mercy."
As he spoke, he retreated to the side and felt sad.
The old man put away the two storage rings and looked at the account book in his hand again. When he saw the words' Yuan Jun 'on the account book, the old man smiled. "Haha, Yuan Jun, I didn't expect you to have a share in this."
"Uh … This …" Looking at the old man, Yuan Jun lowered her head awkwardly, not daring to look at the old man's eyes.
"How is it? Do you want me to read it out for you? Although you don't have as much as before, but …" As he spoke, he flipped two pages and continued, "It doesn't seem to be much different!"
"No … No need, President." Seeing the old man like this, Yuan Jun didn't dare to let him continue.
She reached out and took out a storage ring from her clothes. Handing it to the old man, she said, "President, there are 1,000,000 high-grade Nether Jade in this ring."
Seeing that Yuan Jun was so nimble, the old man didn't continue. His face flashed with a teachable expression. "Not bad, not bad."
As he spoke, he closed the account book in his hand and glanced at the people around him. "How about it? Do you want me to read it out for you one by one, or do you want to hand over the Nether Jade obediently? "
As soon as he said this, everyone's expression changed. They smiled bitterly and shook their heads. "It seems like we can't escape this round."
As soon as he said this, everyone nodded in agreement. They walked up to the old man, took out their storage rings, and handed them to him.
Of course, there was an exception among the dozen people. A young man walked up to the old man and took out a storage bag. "I don't have that much. There are 100,000 high-grade Nether Jade, 1,000,000 mid-grade Nether Jade, and 3,000,000 low-grade Nether Jade."
"Although I don't have as much high-grade Nether Jade as they do, I … only have this much." As he spoke, he didn't care about the old man's strange figure. He retreated to a corner and didn't say anything.
"This kid!" Looking at Wang Bingren, the old man smiled bitterly. Perhaps others had done corrupt things, but Wang Bingren had been refined in the mud. He was pure and flawless, and had not been infected by the filth of the mortal world.
Imagining Wang Bingren's situation, the old man smiled and nodded. "Alright, I know you don't have that much. This should be enough."
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned. They turned to look at Wang Bingren. Although they were unhappy, there was nothing they could do. After all, Wang Bingren hadn't done anything dirty like them!
"That's enough."
Seeing everyone looking at each other, the old man shook his head helplessly. "This matter ends here. As for this account book, this old man will automatically destroy it when the time comes."
"However, in the future, do your job well and don't do such things again. Otherwise …"
"This old man will cripple all of you."
