The Li Family, although already considered a hegemon of 10 Sectors of Spreading Cloud City, was just a local serpent in the entire Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.
If the Li Family could grasp these three formulas, then they would have the chance to ride the wind and transform into a Dragon!
Qin Yichen believed that the Li Family should know how to choose.
“Rest assured, I will deliver these two bottles of Medicinal Liquid to the Li Family as soon as possible.” After he took out these two bottles of Medicinal Liquid, Li Hu immediately made a decision that would change his life. “For this auction, headquarters dispatched three experts in the Early-Stage Martial Grandmaster Realm. I’ll first assign two of them to be at your disposal. How’s that?”
“Then, I must thank Manager Li.” A trace of a smile appeared on Qin Yichen’s face.
In Spreading Cloud City, the strongest expert was only at the Peak Stage Martial Grandmaster Realm. With these two experts at the Martial Grandmaster Realm, he could rest easy.
At least, before Lin Aoqing could react, the people he sent would definitely be easily handled.
Then, the two experts at the Martial Grandmaster Realm followed Li Hu into this VIP room.
“Master Qin, let me introduce you. This is Ba Zheng, Lord Ba, and this is Gu Fei, Lord Gu. Both of them are experts at the Martial Grandmaster Realm and are important Guest Officers of our Treasure Pavilion.”
Li Hu introduced them to Qin Yichen.
To be honest, his status in the Li Family was not as high as these two experts at the Martial Grandmaster Realm. The Li Family was also worried about this auction, so they dispatched them here.
“Qin Yichen greets the two Lords.” Before the two could ask why Li Hu addressed this youth in front of them as a Master, Qin Yichen stood up and cupped his hands towards them.
“This is Master Qin who provided the Sixth Grade Qi Recovery Liquid to our Treasure Pavilion.” Li Hu said.
Instantly, the two people’s gazes shook and their expressions clearly changed after looking at Qin Yichen.
Even in Spreading Cloud City, those who could refine Sixth Grade Medicinal Liquid were few. Yet, Qin Yichen was so young! His future prospects were truly limitless!
In front of Li Hu, they could still put on airs, but in front of this youth, they dare not.
“Master Qin wants to make a huge deal with our Li Family. In these next few days, you will closely protect Master Qin and must not allow any harm to come to Master Qin under any circumstances!” Li Hu solemnly instructed.
Just like that, Qin Yichen successfully brought two experts at the Martial Grandmaster Realm back to the Lin Family courtyard.
…
In Spreading Cloud City, Li Family.
The Li Family Patriarch, Li Yuanfei, was a middle-aged man in his forties.
This was the age when a man’s ambition was at its peak.
Li Yuanfei was no exception. When he took control of the Li Family, the Li Family was already the hegemon of 10 Sectors of Spreading Cloud City. Could he be content with the Li Family stagnating under his reign?
However, for the current Li Family, taking a step further was extremely difficult.
Yet, looking at the three bottles of nearly transparent Medicinal Liquid placed in front of him, Li Yuanfei seemed to see the hope for the Li Family’s rise. Especially after seeing the label on that bottle of Qi Bursting Liquid, his breathing became rapid.
“We must win over this person at all costs!” Originally, after seeing that youth’s request from Li Hu, he still had some hesitation. But now, he has made up his mind.
So what if they fell out with the Lin Family? At most, they would just lose some benefits. However, these three formulas could allow the Li Family a chance to rise.
“Patriarch, what urgent matter did you call me here for?” At this time, an old man with white hair and beard walked in. From his tone, dissatisfaction could be heard.
He was the Li Family’s honoured guest, Ran Rui, and also the only true Alchemy Grandmaster in the Li Family. To be frank, it was because the Li Family offered conditions that moved him that he stayed in the Li Family.
The Li Family was responsible for providing the medicinal ingredients he needed, and he would refine some Pills for the Li Family. Both sides could be considered to be obtaining what they needed.
Delaying his creation of new formulas naturally made Ran Rui unhappy.
“Master Ran, first take a look at these three bottles.”
Because Ran Rui had been in secluded cultivation and did not want to see anyone, Li Yuanfei had to have someone break in to invite this ill-tempered Alchemy Grandmaster out.
“Hmm?” The displeasure on Ran Rui’s face completely vanished after his gaze fell on those three bottles of Medicinal Liquid. The aloof Alchemy Grandmaster stepped forward, picked up that bottle of Qi Recovery Liquid, shook it, opened the bottle and took a whiff. Instantly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. “Sixth Grade Medicinal Liquid?”
Although he himself could also refine Sixth Grade Medicinal Liquids, he felt that it was difficult for him to achieve this level of purity.
“No, this doesn’t smell like Qi Recovery Liquid…” Although as an Alchemy Grandmaster he could detect the differences, he still couldn’t distinguish what exactly was different.
“This person’s technique is above mine!” From this one bottle of Medicinal Liquid, as an Alchemy Grandmaster, he sensed things that others could not.
“Oh?” These words from Ran Rui’s mouth instantly shocked Li Yuanfei.
The so-called technique was actually the degree of control over Spiritual Energy. Generally speaking, it was divided into four realms: Entry, Understanding, Mastery, and the legendary Perfection.
Ran Rui had already entered the Entry Realm, so he was called an Alchemy Grandmaster!
If one could touch the threshold of Understanding, then they wouldn’t be an Alchemy Grandmaster, but an Alchemy Great Grandmaster. However, existences of that level did not exist in the entire Brilliant Martial Country.
It was said that the Guildmaster of the Royal City Alchemy Guild was only at the Mid Stage of Entry Realm, still very far from the Understanding Realm.
A teenager in his teens had actually reached the Entry Realm?!
Understanding who refined this Medicinal Liquid, Li Yuanfei’s heart trembled violently.
The subsequent Healing Liquid also received the same high evaluation from Ran Rui. Finally, he stopped at the third bottle of Medicinal Liquid.
“How strange. What effect does this Medicinal Liquid have? Why have I never seen it before?” After smelling it over a dozen times, he could only distinguish two medicinal herbs contained within it. Everything else was a complete mystery.
“Master Ran, take a look at this.” Li Yuanfei handed him the three notes, one by one.
“Th-That’s impossible!” After seeing the note about the Qi Recovery Liquid, Ran Rui was full of disbelief. But after taking a small sip of that bottle of Qi Recovery Liquid, he fell silent.
After a long while, he asked in an urgent tone, “Patriarch, do you have the formula for this Medicinal Liquid?”
“I do.” Li Yuanfei didn’t hide anything and directly handed the Qi Recovery Liquid formula to him.
“What!? Just adding four such common medicinal herbs can shorten the time for the Qi Recovery Liquid to take effect to around twenty seconds!?” Ran Rui was in disbelief.
The subsequent Healing Liquid similarly subverted his understanding. As for the last one…
“This… this Qi Bursting Liquid actually has such a divine effect!?” He completely lost all composure.
According to his knowledge, although there were some Pills that could temporarily increase one’s strength, the price paid was extremely heavy. It would be something like reducing one’s lifespan. Worst, that was the lightest consequence. Generally, it would severely injure their internal organs, leaving one bedridden for life, or shatter their Dantian. Therefore, unless it was a life-or-death situation, absolutely no one would choose to take them.
Of course, most importantly, the ingredients required for these Pills were also extremely expensive.
It was normal for such Pills’ existence and know hows to vanish with time.
However, this Qi Bursting Liquid not only lasted for as long as five minutes, the price paid was only being bedridden for a few months!
