Chapter 220

On the other hand, pellets were considered daily consumable for every cultivator. Even if it wasn’t used for daily cultivation, everyone would have some just to be prepared. The hall for pellets were majestically decorated, filled with gorgeous lamps that lit up the entire hall. On the counter, there were all sorts of different pellets for show.

On average, there would be tens of thousands to millions of people coming daily. The hall was enormous, equipped with four floors to cope with such a huge crowd. At this moment, a group of cultivators in the Profound Martial Realm strode into the hall. The leader was a tall and burly man with a heavy sword on his back.

“It’s the Bloodwolf Mercenary!”

“They must’ve gotten another huge harvest in the desert outside!”

“How will they fail with Wolf King Feng Jue personally leading the team?

The group was instantly recognized as soon as they came in. They were from the Bloodwolf Mercenary, and their leader, Feng Jue, had a famous reputation in the capital. There were many elites gathered in the Great Qin County. Aside from that, there were also many fugitives working for the various clans.

Among them, some stronger ones would rally up a team to establish a mercenary group. It was a profitable profession despite the high mortality. As long as one order was complete, it would bring them a large sum of spiritual jades. Among the mercenary groups, the Bloodwolf Mercenary was one of the stronger ones in the batch.

So they were regular customers to the chambers of commerce whenever they had a huge harvest to acquire cultivation resources. They would bring a large amount of income for the respective chambers of commerce.

“There isn’t any Greater Profound Pellet?” Feng Yue frowned while looking around. For some reason, there was a huge shortage of Greater Profound Pellets in the chambers of commerce. He only managed to acquire about a hundred of them after visiting several chambers of commerce. It was only enough for ten people to cultivate.

But the Bloodwolf Mercenary had close to a hundred members, and a hundred Greater Profound Pellets weren’t enough for them. The maid who was serving him smiled, “The Greater Profound Pellets has a good market recently, and they’re almost gone as soon as they’re placed in the counter. Captain Feng Jue, you have to be early tomorrow.”

The maid’s face changed slightly. She wanted to stop Feng Jue, but it was already too late. When Feng Jue went over to take a look at the thirty Greater Profound Pellets, his face changed, “100 spiritual jades? The Myriad Treasure Pavilion really knows how to do your business. Greater Profound Pellets only cost 10 spiritual jades on average, with 30 spiritual jades for the better ones.”

“Hehe. Captain, this Greater Profound Pellet has been here for an entire day, and no one is interested to buy it at all.”

“Some random alchemist must be greedy trying to find someone to take advantage of.”

“That’s right. Captain, you can’t be the fool.”

The other mercenaries smiled. This bottle of Profound Greater Pellets had attracted many people’s attention, and they were all mocking at the ridicule price.

“Aside from Master Fu Guang, I’ve never heard of anyone daring to sell Greater Profound Pellets at this price. This bottle of Greater Profound Pellets here alone worth two months of our income. How ruthless!” The mercenary members were all unhappy when they saw the price.

Spiritual jades were different from spiritual stones, and ordinary people mainly used spiritual stones as their currency. But everyone in the Great Qin County had a noble status. Anyone who could enter the Myriad Treasure Pavilion were in the Xiantian Realm, so they naturally used spiritual jades as their currency.

After all, spiritual jades were spiritual stones that had been refined with the impurities erased. They could be used to cultivate, set up arrays, alchemy, and even forging artifacts. So 100 spiritual jades wasn’t a small amount.

The maid who was responsible for serving the group looked awkward. Suddenly, Feng Jue asked, “You guys got a new alchemist?”

“Yeah. He wasn’t here in the past, and only the Hall Master knows his identity,” replied the maid. At this moment, she made up her mind to tell the Hall Master how the ridiculous price was ruining their reputation.

“Give me a pellet.”

“What?”

The maid was surprised, thinking that she had heard it wrongly. But she immediately recovered from her shock and smiled, “Okay.”

Feng Jue was considered a distinguished guest in many major chambers of commerce. So they naturally didn’t have to worry about his reputation. The maid immediately retrieved one pellet and gave it to Feng Jue.

“Holy shit… Is Feng Jue going to be the fool who buys the?” Everyone in the surrounding was surprised. They never expected that Feng Jue would really buy such a ridiculously priced Greater Profound Pellet.

Under the surprised looks of everyone, Feng Jue tossed the Greater Profound Pellet into his mouth and started refining it. His aura in the sixth stage of the Profound Martial Realm gradually spread out. His cultivation was deep and powerful; he wasn’t any weaker than the Sword Firmament Pavilion’s Wang Yan.

When the surging medicinal effect dispersed within his body, Feng Jue was secretly surprised by the pellet. However, it still wasn’t worth 100 spiritual jades. But just when Feng Jue thought that he had done refining it, another surge of medicinal power rose from the depth of his body.

The medicinal power kept rising, which left Feng Jue shocked. The medicinal effect first boosted to 60%. For reference, ordinary Greater Profound Pellets only had 30% of medicinal effects, while better ones had 50%. However, the medicinal power did not stop surging in Feng Jue’s body and rose to 70%. Then again, the rising still continued.

Feng Jue was ecstatic because he could feel a slight increment in his cultivation after consuming the Greater Profound Pellet. Furthermore, the medicinal effect still hadn’t ended. He instantly knew that he had to leave right now or people would start to realise his changes. Relying on his powerful cultivation, he forcibly suppressed the Greater Profound Pellet’s medicinal effect.

Without any change in his expression, Feng Jue spoke out, “Not bad. It’s not as bad as I imagined. Anyways, it’s not easy to buy Greater Profound Pellets recently, so I’ll take all 30 pellets.

“Big Brother!” The mercenary members immediately called out. At the same time, everyone in the hall was dumbfounded.

“Wow, the alchemist who refined it really managed to find a fool to buy them.”

“The demand for Greater Profound Pellets are really high recently. Captain Feng Jue probably has something urgent to handle, so he don’t want to waste time finding Greater Profound Pellets.”

An uproar broke out in the surrounding. Everyone was saying how lucky the alchemist was. In the end, a person from the mercenary group took out 3,000 spiritual jades reluctantly and gave it over to the maid.

“Everyone says that Captain Feng Jue is generous. I’ll boldly make an exception and give you a discount of 200 spiritual jades.” The made was happy to sell the thirty Greater Profound Pellets and even went as far as giving a discount. After all, every chambers of commerce had privilegs to try and win over honored customers.

The maid, Qing Mei, felt that what she did was justified, and Feng Jue was definitely worth it. On the other hand, Feng Jue laughed inwardly. Looking at the bright smile on the maid’s face, he wondered how she would look a few days from now.

But as someone experienced in life, he was able to keep himself composed. Rising his brows, he pretended to be pleased and replied, “Great! The Myriad Treasure Pavilion is truly worthy of its reputation. Since you guys are going as far as giving me a discount, then I’ll be back tomorrow.”

“Sure. That’s great! Captain Feng Jue, please remember to find me again tomorrow!” Qing Mei smiled cheerfully.

After the mercenary group went out, the smile on Feng Jue’s face disappeared. He muttered, “Hurry up!”

Everyone else in the mercenary group was baffled; they could sense that there was something wrong with their captain. However, they did not dare to say anything and quickly followed Feng Jue into a remote alley. The moment they walked in, Feng Jue could no longer suppress the Greater Profound Pellet’s medicinal effect. His aura began to rise with his hair fluttering in the wind. The sheer outburst of his aura alone pushed two people who were standing beside him away.

“Captain?”

Feng Jue ignored him and focused on refining the pellet. After a long time, Feng Jue finally opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, there was a bright glow in his eyes. He could sense that there was a slight improvement in his cultivation in just such a short time. This fact left the members of the mercenary in the surrounding dumbfounded.

“Hahaha!” Feng Jue began to laugh wildly. Feeling comfortable all over, he yelled, “Great! That feels great!”

After a while, someone asked cautiously, “Captain, you’ve spent 3,000 spiritual jades at once. What are we going to do at Master Fu Guang’s Pellet Opening Ceremony ten days from now?”

“Screw him. All thirteen of you take one of the Greater Profound Pellet. Keep the medicinal effect to yourself. It’s strictly confidential!” Feng Jue said in a deep voice.

Early in the next morning, Qing Mei’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Feng Jue. Walking over to her, Feng Jue smiled, “Lady Qing Mei, I’m here as promised.”

Qing Mei was briefly taken aback before she smiled, “Captain Feng Jue, please come inside.”

For three days in a row, Feng Jue came every day and brought all the highly priced Greater Profound Pellets, which shocked everyone. Everyone was wondering if Feng Jue was trying to empty the Bloodwolf Mercenary’s wealth. They could feel that something was amiss when Feng Jue came again on the fourth day, but they didn’t know where was the problem.

When Feng Jue came in to the counter this time, he noticed that Hall Master Wei was holding onto a bottle of pellets, “Captain Feng Jue, you’re here for the Greater Profound Pellets again?”

Hall Master Wei looked at Feng Jue with his eyes narrowed into slits with a bright smile. On the other hand, Feng Jue’s eyes were glued onto the bottle. Hall Master Wei was the person responsible for this hall, and it was rare to see him around. But when Feng Jue saw Hall Master Wei, he instantly knew that his luck had ran out.

“It seems that Hall Master Wei has discovered the secret of this pellet.” Feng Jue smiled.

But Hall Master Wei wore an odd expression when he heard what Feng Jue said. He had no idea what secret Feng Jue was talking about. He was only feeling odd that such expensive Greater Profound Pellets could be sold out three days in a row. So he came out today wanting to see who brought it.

“What secret?”

Feng Jue was briefly stunned before he asked, “As the Hall Master, don’t you know that these Greater Profound Pellets has 90% medicinal effects?”

The entire hall went into silence when Feng Jue said that. Hall Master Wei instantly felt his mind blowing up and asked, “What did you say?”

Feng Jue smiled bitterly when he heard that because he knew that he made a mistake. But now that things had come to this, he no longer hide it and replied, “Every single pellet in this bottle of Greater Profound Pellets has 90% medicinal effects.”

Right after he spoke, he unleashed his aura, which caused a violent gale in the hall.

“Seventh stage of the Profound Martial Realm!” Someone exclaimed out. Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
