Liar?
Zhang Haoxuan's words stunned everyone.
Murong Yang, who was at the back of the crowd, looked rather grim. He walked out and looked at Ye Chen. "Brother, you don't look familiar. May I know your name?"
"Ye Chen."
"Young Master Murong, this kid is really a swindler. He was stopped outside just now, I don't know what method he used to get in."
Seeing that Murong Yang was beginning to suspect Ye Chen, Zhang Haoxuan proceeded to exaggerate. Pride filled his face.
As soon as he said that.
The people began to look at Ye Chen with hostility.
Yao Bingyue smirked as she observed Ye Chen with interest. To her, Ye Chen did not look like someone who had medicinal pills.
Zhang Zijian's expression changed and he hurriedly said, "Young Master Murong, my friend is not a swindler..."
"Shut up!"
Zhang Mengqi shouted.
"Brother, you said you have pills. Please take them out now and prove yourself."
Murong Yang took a deep breath in and said, "The Murong clan welcomes you if you can prove yourself. I'll apologize to you personally. If you can't …"
He couldn't continue speaking, but the coldness on his face had already revealed everything.
Hearing this.
Zhang Haoxuan immediately sneered.
I'd like to see how you're going to handle this.
"You want pills?"
Ye Chen chuckled softly and put his hand into his clothes. When he took it out again, there was a red medicinal pill in his hand.
As soon as the pill was exposed to the air, it immediately emitted a medicinal fragrance. Everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed.
The smile on Zhang Haoxuan's face froze.
This time, everyone's gaze changed.
Zhang Mengqi's expression changed slightly.
Murong Yang looked surprised. He did not mention that he was going to apologize at all.
"This is a Body Strengthening Pill. It can temper one's body," Ye Chen said calmly.
Zhang Haoxuan subconsciously said, "Don't tell me this pill is fake …"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him as if he was an idiot. Fake? How could a fake pill have such a strong medicinal fragrance?
"Little brother, may I have a look?" A red-nosed old man walked out from behind Yao Bingyue.
"It's Great Master Gu from the Spiritual Medicine Mountain. He's proficient in thousands of medicinal herbs, so he's the most suitable person to test it."
No one knew who said it.
Ye Chen nodded lightly. "Sure!"
Master Gu walked directly to Ye Chen and extended his arm to take the Body Strengthening Pill. He began studying it at a close distance. Sometimes, he would sniff it and sometimes, he would pinch some powder with his hand and put it in his mouth.
The next moment.
His expression changed instantly and was filled with disbelief. "This pill really has the effect of strengthening and tempering the body. Moreover, the effect is very strong. The medicinal power is enough to allow an ancient martial art practitioner in the Movement realm to instantly break through to the Inner Energy realm."
"Hua!"
The crowd burst into an uproar. They were all shocked by Master Gu's words.
It should be known that in this world, although the number of ancient martial arts practitioners was not small, close to 90% of them were stuck in the realm of moves, and could only imitate the basics.
Only after breaking through to the Internal Energy stage would one be able to condense energy in one's body. Only then would one's combat power increase dramatically.
However, the elixir in front of him could allow a martial artist in the Movement Realm to instantly break through to the Inner Energy Realm?
For a moment, many people's breathing quickened.
Zhang Haoxuan's face turned pale.
Zhang Mengqi and Murong Yang took a good look at Ye Chen. Meanwhile, Zhang Mengqi's pretty face was shocked, but she did not care. After all, the Spiritual Medicine Mountain could refine such a medicinal pill too, but the effect was not as powerful.
Master Gu could not help but look at Ye Chen. "Little brother, do you have more? I'll take as many as my Spiritual Medicine Mountain has. "
"I'm sorry, but I'm only exchanging for the Tiger Bone Flower and the Heavenly Star Herb. I don't need a lot of them," Ye Chen rejected him firmly.
What Master Gu said was a lie. If he really said that he had a lot of them, he would definitely get himself into big trouble. Although he was not afraid, he did not want to be used as a tool.
"I wonder what the Tiger Bone Flower and the Heavenly Star Herb that you're talking about are?" Master Gu asked, unwilling to give up.
Ye Chen thought about it and drew a picture of the Tiger Bone Flower and the Heavenly Star Herb on the ground with a piece of chalk.
Everyone looked at it, and their faces were filled with confusion.
Master Gu sighed.
He had never seen it before.
Ye Chen could not help but feel a little disappointed.
At that moment, Yao Bingxue, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke, "Are you talking about the Zhu Luohua?"
Ye Chen could not help but look at her.
Yao Bingxue walked over and looked at the picture on the ground. She said again, "Is the Tiger Bone Flower that you're talking about born in the Tiger Tomb? The one with five petals that look like plum blossoms and the color of blood?"
"That's right!"
Ye Chen glanced at her in slight surprise.
"My Spiritual Medicine Mountain has the Tiger Bone Flower, but there's very little of it. Moreover, this herb is hard to come by, so we don't sell it."
Yao Bingxue smiled sweetly. "Your so-called Body Strengthening Pill alone isn't enough unless you have something more valuable."
Ye Chen thought about it and stretched his hand into his clothes again. A yellow medicinal pill appeared in his hand. The medicinal pill was even more dazzling than the Body Strengthening Pill earlier. There was a glow coming out of it like the scorching sun.
Yao Bingxue was shocked, but she remained expressionless.
"This is the Heart Repairing Pill. It can extend a person's heartbeat and extend their life for a year!"
Everyone held their breaths as soon as Ye Chen was done speaking.
They thought they had heard it wrong. Zhang Mengqi's heart jolted. Never had she thought that Ye Chen would have such a medicinal pill.
"What did you say?"
Yao Bingyue's pretty face that was initially calm changed. She glared deadly at Ye Chen. "Did you say that it can extend a person's life for a year?"
"That's right!"
Ye Chen nodded. "The premise is that the person hasn't died before consuming it!"
"Master Gu, test the pill!"
Yao Bingyue said immediately.
Master Gu took the Heart Repairing Pill from Ye Chen. His hands were shaking, and he was even more nervous and serious than before.
Everyone stared at him with their eyes wide open. Their hearts were in their throats, including Murong Yang.
Over ten minutes later, Master Gu passed the Heart Repairing Pill to Ye Chen. He wiped his sweat and said while shaking, "Miss, this medicinal pill indeed has the effect of extending one's life. I can't guarantee that it can extend one's life for a year, but it can at least extend one's life for half a year!"
Gasp!
The crowd gasped again!
It was true!
Even if they could extend their lifespan by half a year, that would still be more than a hundred days. No one would not want to live more than a hundred days, especially for those who were about to die. Not to mention more than a hundred years, even living one more day was a luxury.
Zhang Haoxuan was completely dumbstruck.
Before the people could react, Murong Yang spoke first, "Brother Ye, the Murong family wants this Heart Repairing Pill of yours. You can name whatever you want. The Murong family can even give you 5% of our annual income in exchange!"
The crowd could not help but feel dizzy as soon as he was done speaking.
Everyone couldn't help but feel dizzy. As the tyrant of Gan Province, the Murong clan was a well-known financial group with hundreds of companies under its banner. Their annual revenue was at least 50 billion, so 5% would be 2.5 billion, and this was only for one year.
Even Zhang Mengqi could not sit still anymore. She said, "Mr. Ye, as long as you give me the Heart Repairing Pill, the Zhang family of Wannan won't hold you accountable for making Zijian kneel anymore!"
