Medical Sage

Although he now wished he could cut Chen Fei into a thousand pieces, smash his bones, nevertheless, Chen Fei’s terrifying combat power, which was nearly at the Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, only left him in awe! Even if he had to swallow his anger, he’d have to keep it inside.

However, although he couldn’t kill Chen Fei, he could still disgust him by refusing to sell him anything! In this way, wouldn’t it be a different kind of humiliation for that wretched guy?

Given his status, even if he didn’t sell anything to Chen Fei, what could he do about being humiliated? He didn’t believe Chen Fei would dare to make a move against him, Yuan Jie!

If it came to that, his master, Master Yuan Qing, was not someone to be trifled with!

”Someone who doesn’t understand?” Upon hearing this, Chen Fei couldn’t help but laugh angrily. Staring at the sly-looking Yuan Jie, he said coolly, ”Who do you think you are, daring to presumptuously criticize that I don’t understand alchemy? Do you have the qualifications?”

”What did you say!?” Yuan Jie’s eyes immediately reddened, almost spitting fire.

Apparently, he had never expected Chen Fei to speak to him like that.

”I don’t have the qualifications?” Yuan Jie said with a sinister and venomous expression, looking at Chen Fei with a twisted and mocking grin, pointing to himself.

”I, Yuan Jie, a Low Grade Third-Level Alchemist, am now Yuan Qing Master’s closed-door disciple! You say I don’t have the qualifications?” Yuan Jie’s pride grew with his words, becoming more confident with every syllable.

Then he fiercely patted his chest, looked at Chen Fei with disdain and a cold smile, and waved his hand like he was shooing a fly, humiliatingly saying, ”Alright! I have no interest in saying more to you, anyway, our Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce will never...”

”Yuan Jie, what’s going on? Why is it so noisy here?” An elderly voice, somewhat dissatisfied, came in from outside the chamber’s entrance.

Instantly, Yuan Jie’s voice seemed to get stuck in his throat. His expression became surprised and unpleasant.

”Hiss, Master Yuan has arrived! Master Yuan Qing.” Someone exclaimed in surprise.

Meanwhile, a group of people slowly walked in from outside the chamber’s entrance. The leader was a slightly balding, dark-skinned elder, his eyes frowning as he scanned the hall.

Not only that, but beside him was another elder with crane-like hair and a youthful face, leaning on a cane. This person was none other than Elder Zhuu, who had previously stepped in to stop Chen Fei.

”Hmm... it’s you?” As soon as he came in, he seemed to have noticed Chen Fei’s presence, furrowing his brows in slight surprise.

Apparently, he hadn’t expected Chen Fei to still be in the Azure Dragon Ravine!

Could it be, he wasn’t afraid of anyone seeking revenge?

”Master, Elder Zhuu.” Upon seeing the two enter, even the previously extremely proud Yuan Jie became obedient. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects.

”Master Yuan, Elder Zhuu,” the others respectfully echoed in unison.

”Yuan Jie, what’s going on? Elder Zhuu, do you know that young man?” The slightly balding, dark-skinned elder asked, frowning at his closed-door disciple and then at the elderly Zhuu beside him.

Clearly, he had heard Elder Zhuu’s light self-murmur.

”Yes, he’s the youngster I mentioned to you before.” Elder Zhuu nodded and said.

”What? It’s him... He’s really quite young.” Hearing this, Master Yuan Qing raised his eyebrows, looking at Chen Fei and muttering to himself in a bit of surprise.

Apparently, even with his perspective, Chen Fei’s youthfulness was somewhat surprising and shocking to him.

Isn’t it a bit too young!? Does this young man indeed have nearly Foundation Establishment True Person Realm combat power?

”Master, it’s like this, he was causing trouble in our chamber.” Seeing his master knew Chen Fei’s background within a few words, Yuan Jie’s heart tightened, but he forced calmness, accusing first as a villain.

”Causing trouble?” Master Yuan Qing frowned and looked at Chen Fei.

”Causing trouble?” Meeting the gaze, Chen Fei coldly smiled and asked, ”Master Yuan, I want to ask, when your Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce opens for business, are there items you claim to sell but actually don’t? If that’s the case, I’ll apologize on the spot, turn around and leave, without saying another unnecessary word.”

”Of course not. When our Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce opens for business, anything that can be sold must be sold! Otherwise, how can we call it doing business!?” Master Yuan Qing immediately shook his head, his face subtly darkening, and coldly asked the steward named Duan beside him.

”What’s going on? Why does this young friend say some things at our Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce can’t be sold!?”

Opening for business, what matters most? It’s reputation!

If there’s no reputation, anything wants to be sold as it’s wished, then how can our Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce have any reputation to speak of? What kind of reputation would there be?

By that time, once such rumors solidify, what a massive impact it would bring to the chamber’s business!

As long as someone isn’t a blockhead, they would surely know. But now this...

”I, I, I...” The steward named Duan stammered, his face ghastly pale, at this moment how could he dare say anything? He didn’t even have the courage to lie with his eyes open.

”Heh, let me speak, then.” Seeing this scene, Chen Fei sneered, extended his hand, and actually directly took back the paper from Yuan Jie’s hand, throwing it to the unhappy looking Master Yuan Qing and saying coldly.

”I came to your Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce to buy things, one said I couldn’t afford it, another said I wasn’t qualified to buy it! Alright then, if this is the rule of your Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce, I have nothing more to say.”

”What is this!?”

Yuan Qing Master took the paper and glanced at it, his eyes suddenly revealing a hint of shock.

Because, clearly, he did not expect that the items listed on the paper were the precious third-level and fourth-level alchemy materials that even alchemists at his level don’t often use!

What is this kid buying these alchemy materials for?

For those who aren’t alchemists, these valuable third- and fourth-level alchemy materials are practically useless.

Wait, could it be...

An absurd guess surged from within Yuan Qing Master’s mind.

But immediately, he regained his composure; now was not the time for him to be indulging in such idle speculation.

Then, he turned to the manager surnamed Duan, holding the paper, his face expressionless, and asked: ”Do we have the alchemy materials listed here in our chamber of commerce?”

”I, I, I... we do.” The manager surnamed Duan turned pale, trembling all over, and desperately wanting to utter the words ’no’.

But reason told him that if he really said that, he’d be nothing but an irredeemably foolish dimwit.

Can you lie about such things? It can be easily checked!

”You do!?” Hearing this, Yuan Qing Master raised an eyebrow, his voice turning cold as he said, ”Since you have them, why aren’t they for sale!? Give me a reason now.”

”I, I, I... that’s right, he can’t afford it! These alchemy materials at least cost two thousand three hundred low-grade spirit stones at the very least, and he doesn’t have that many low-grade spirit stones.” The manager surnamed Duan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, sweating profusely.

”Can’t afford it?” Hearing this, Yuan Qing Master frowned once more, looking at Chen Fei. While two thousand three hundred low-grade spirit stones weren’t much to him, as he was an alchemist and never lacked spirit stones,

However, if Chen Fei doesn’t have that many low-grade spirit stones, then not selling to him is indeed reasonable and there’s nothing wrong with that.

”Do you think just because you say I can’t afford it means I can’t afford it?” But upon hearing this, Chen Fei’s lips curled into a cold smile.

”Master Yuan, do you think this pill bottle is worth two thousand three hundred low-grade spirit stones!?”

Following this, everyone saw him wave his hand, sending out a palm-sized century-old warm jade pill bottle, tracing a milky white ray in mid-air, which landed in Yuan Qing Master’s hand.

”Is that a pill bottle!?” Witnessing this scene, everyone present was taken aback. Especially Elder Zhuu and Yuan Jie, whose eyes automatically locked onto it involuntarily.

This palm-sized pill bottle could hold five or six pills at most.

And now, this kid claimed such a small bottle of pills was actually worth two thousand three hundred low-grade spirit stones!?

What kind of pill could possibly match the price of a mid-grade magical artifact?

This kid, how could he produce such a level of precious pill!?

On what basis? How could that be possible!?

”Hiss! This is…” But at that moment, an even more astonishing scene unfolded! Yuan Qing Master, after receiving the pill bottle and opening it, suddenly shrank his pupils and instinctively took a cold breath.

Because inside that palm-sized pill bottle, there weren’t five or six pills as one might assume, but instead, there were actually only two dragon eye-sized blue-green pills lying quietly within.

Unlike ordinary pills, those blue-green dragon eye-like pills were surrounded by five tiers of silver dan patterns!?

”Five, five-pattern Silver Pattern Pill, and it’s even a low-grade third-level five-pattern silver pattern pill!?”

Yuan Qing Master’s face showed shock, his pupils contracting as he instinctively licked his lips, murmuring, as if being stunned to the extreme.

No way, the more one is an alchemist, the clearer it becomes what the five-pattern silver pattern pill symbolizes!

Even his best record was merely a four-pattern silver pattern pill.

Furthermore, that was only a second-level mid-grade low-level pill.

Compared to the low-grade third-level five-pattern silver pattern pill he was seeing now, they were completely in different tiers.

”Wha, what!? Low-grade third-level five-pattern silver pattern pill!?” Yuan Qing Master’s shocked mumbling directly set off an uproar among those present!

I, what the hell, low-grade third-level five-pattern silver pattern pill, they must be hearing it wrong, right?

Or, they haven’t quite woken up yet!?

”Wha, what? Low-grade third-level five-pattern silver pattern pill? How, how, how is this possible!?”

Yuan Jie almost bit his tongue, his eyes trembling madly, incredulously.

”This, this kid, could it be…” Elder Zhuu at the moment was also utterly shocked inside. As he looked at Chen Fei, his eyes trembling, an absurd thought gradually rose in his heart...
