C649 The Grand Opening
C649 The Grand Opening
The patriarch didn't release any Qi, but it gave people the feeling that he couldn't breathe.
It was just a question, but the forehead of this official was full of sweat.
"Miss, she... She has been quite close with a young man recently."
The official secretly observed the patriarch's expression. He thought that the patriarch would fly into a rage. Everyone knew how much the patriarch loved this only daughter of the Chiang family.
She was the only child of the Chiang family's new generation.
There was no obvious change in the patriarch's expression. This made this official heave a sigh of relief.
"Tell me in detail."
"Yes! Half a month ago, a young man came to Bright Divine Temple to offer incense and had a conflict with Jiang Linlin and the others. It was the young lady who stopped the conflict and met the young man.
This young man seemed to have a good foundation in alchemy. He was actually able to distinguish the recipe created by the young lady by relying on the medicinal fragrance.
The young man's father was seriously injured. He wanted the young lady to treat him but was rejected by the young lady.
Perhaps the young lady couldn't bear it and decided to teach this young man alchemy."
The patriarch asked:" Has the identity of that young man been investigated? "
" Patriarch, I have. He is the Sect Master of Essence Martial Sect who has just entered the Fifth Heavenly Layer. This Essence Martial Sect was originally a Fourth Heavenly Layer power. I have already prepared to send someone to the Fourth Heavenly Layer to investigate. "
"You have done well."
The official asked with some hesitation, "Patriarch, do you want to give this kid..."
The patriarch waved his hand. "No need. She has been under house arrest for twenty years. It's good to have someone to chat with her. Just keep an eye on her.
There's no need to investigate this kid's background. If he makes any unusual moves, just kill him. "
The official's face turned cold, and he immediately said, "Yes!"
Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
A new month had arrived. Early in the morning, when the sun had just risen, the door of the Essence Martial Sect was pushed open from the inside.
The moment the door was opened, the spies of the various powers in the vicinity became excited.
Three months! Three months after the Essence Martial Sect had risen from the ground, the door of the Essence Martial Sect had finally opened.
Wang Hao led the disciples of the Essence Martial Sect and walked out. He looked around and a smile appeared on his face.
"Everyone, don't hide anymore. Come out now!"
Three breaths later, the first person appeared, followed by more spies.
Wang Hao announced, "Go back and tell the forces behind you that the Carefree Tower, which is run by Essence Martial Sect, will open at noon today.
This time, the Carefree Tower will be open for business, and they will be selling the necessary Medicine Pill. I hope that the forces behind you can come and support us.
Bai Xiaosheng, distribute the list of the items that will be sold during the opening of the Carefree Tower to everyone. "
" Yes! "
Bai Xiaosheng took out the list of items from the Essence Ring and sent them out one by one.
When the eyewitnesses opened the list, their eyes immediately lit up.
They quickly left and sent the news back to the forces behind them.
Among these people, there were naturally spies from the Chiang family. When the elder in charge of Pill Shop received the list, he was so angry that he smashed a stone table with his palm.
"Preposterous!"
No wonder the elder of Chiang family was angry. The Medicine Pill that was going to be sold in Carefree Tower, be it the type or quantity, was exactly the same as the unusual order from the Chiang family's Pill Shop.
Without a doubt, the sudden increase in sales of Chiang family's Pill Shop had been bought by Essence Martial Sect.
"What a good Essence Martial Sect! I'll buy the Medicine Pill from the Chiang family and sell it at a higher price!"
Next to the elder of the Chiang family was the trembling supervisor of Pill Shop.
"Elder, what is the thought of the Essence Martial Sect? Do they want to buy our Medicine Pill and sell it at a higher price? None of the Fifth Heavenly Layer warriors are fools. Who would buy it?"
"Humph! Who do you think I am going to ask?! However, it is very easy to figure it out. Wait until noon. Come with me and see what the Essence Martial Sect is up to! "
Before noon arrived, nearly a hundred warriors had gathered in front of Carefree Tower to watch the show.
The reason why they were attracted here was not only because of the Essence Martial Sect's mysteriousness, but also because of the list of Medicine Pills sales they had received.
The Medicine Pill on the list were mostly supplementary effects for cultivation, and it was also the most popular type of Medicine Pill sold in the Chiang family's Pill Shop.
However, the price marked on the list was 30% higher than the Chiang family's Pill Shop.
Everyone knew that the Medicine Pill sold in the Chiang family's Pill Shop was provided by the Alchemist Association, and the quality was 10% higher than the standard.
A Medicine Pill that was 30% more expensive than the Pill Shop of Chiang family, what was the difference?
More and more warriors gathered in front of the Carefree Tower, and the discussions became louder and louder.
"This Essence Martial Sect is really curious. No one has been able to conquer the Sword Tomb in the past hundred years. The buildings of the sect have been built, and now they are going to open the Pill Shop."
"Yeah, but I have a feeling that something strange is going on this time. I'm afraid no one will buy such an expensive Medicine Pill, right?"
"That's not necessarily the case. Any major power who wants to establish a foothold in the Fifth Heavenly Layer would have to face the problem of earning money. Since the Essence Martial Sect has chosen the Pill Shop, they must have their own ideas."
"But the Medicine Pill business in the Fifth Heaven has long been monopolized by the Chiang family. Have you ever seen any other major power interfering?"
"No, it's the association that supplied the Medicine Pill to the Chiang family. How can they compete for it?"
"Now that you mention it, wouldn't the opening of the Pill Shop of the Essence Martial Sect become a joke?"
"Who knows? But look at that!"
One of them pointed his finger towards a distance. The surrounding warriors all turned their heads to look.
Someone exclaimed, "Isn't that Jiang Lin, the head of the Chiang family's Pill Shop, and Elder Chiang Feng, who is in charge of the Chiang family's Medicine Pill business?"
"These two people are here as well. It seems like there will be a great show today."
Amidst the discussion, the sun in the sky rose above everyone's heads.
It was already noon.
The main gate of Carefree Tower slowly opened, and everyone quieted down. Their eyes were fixed on the main gate of Carefree Tower.
After the gate opened, no one came out to welcome them.
"Strange, no one came out to welcome the opening?"
"Let's go! Let's go in and take a look!"
A warrior walked into the Carefree Tower first. As soon as he stepped into the door, he was shocked.
The interior of the Carefree Tower was decorated in an ancient style. The decorations of the ancient trees were very pleasing to the eye.
There was no one in the hall on the first floor. There were only counters, and on each counter were dozens of white jade boxes.
There was a Medicine Pill in the box, and below the box was a small sign. The name and price of the Medicine Pill were written on the sign.
More and more people entered the Carefree Tower, and just like the first person, they were quickly attracted by the scene in front of them.
Two warriors walked to the counter. One of them asked curiously, "What the hell is going on? There are so many precious Medicine Pills on the counter. Aren't they afraid of being stolen?"
His companion smiled and said, "We'll know once we try!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a jade box that was placed on the counter.
Just as his finger was about to touch the jade box, a strange power suddenly appeared on top of the jade box, blocking his finger.
This power didn't seem to have any intention of attacking, but it was like an iron wall blocking in front of him.
"What?"
This discovery left everyone incredibly shocked. They all reached out their hands, wishing to personally give it a try. Without a doubt, they were all blocked by this strange power.
Some of them secretly exerted five percent of their strength, but they were still unable to shake this force in the slightest.
"It's a defensive formation!"
An old voice rang out. Everyone looked over and saw that it was a middle-aged man who had spoken.
What attracted everyone's attention was the clothes that the middle-aged man was wearing - the uniform of the Talisman Association!
"He's from the Talisman Association!"
The middle-aged man bent down and carefully studied the counter. He shockingly discovered that the Talisman that formed the array was actually one with the patterns of the ancient wood used to make the cabinet.
If he hadn't carefully examined it, he wouldn't have been able to see anything at all.
"What a good transplant wood! The person who created this array is definitely a rare Talisman genius that only appears once in a thousand years!"
Hearing such an evaluation from the people of the Talisman Association, it was definitely not easy.
Someone asked curiously, "There isn't even a single person here. If I want to buy a Medicine Pill, what should I do?"
A playful voice sounded out of nowhere.
"Which Medicine Pill do you like? Just lightly tap on it and it will do."
This was Lin Fei's voice, but it came from an unknown place.
The middle-aged man from the Talisman Association was the first to reach out and try. He used his index finger to tap a Medicine Pill twice.
A miraculous thing happened. In front of him, a formation appeared out of thin air.
Lin Fei's voice rang out once again, "You only need to place the Essence Crystal marked below the Medicine Pill on the formation, and then you can take out the Medicine Pill."
"So magical?"
Everyone followed her example and one array after another popped out.
However, after a long time, no one took out their Essence Crystal.
"Damn it, such an expensive Medicine Pill, I can't bear to part with it!"
The Medicine Pill sold in Carefree Tower was even 30% higher than the Chiang family's Pill Shop. This was something that many martial artists could not accept.
"Let me be the first one to eat crabs!"
A warrior stood out. Someone said to himself, "It's someone from Bai family!"
"The Bai family is one of the three big families in the Fifth Heavenly Layer. They have the fiercest temper. If this Medicine Pill is a trap, I'm afraid there will be a good show to watch!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the warriors of the Bai family.
The warriors of the Bai family chose a Nine Revolutions Bronze Pill. This was a healing Medicine Pill.
He placed the corresponding Essence Crystal on the formation in front of him. The Essence Crystal and the formation disappeared at the same time, and the white jade box with the Medicine Pill floated up from the counter.
The Bai family warrior grabbed the box and opened it to check. He confirmed that the Medicine Pill in the box was indeed a Nine Revolutions Bronze Pill.
He had achieved his goal and was ready to leave.
"Friend, please wait a moment."
Someone stopped him. Everyone fixed their eyes on him. It was the elder of Chiang family, Chiang Feng.
"Elder Chiang Feng, what's the matter?"
"Friend, since you are the first person to buy the Medicine Pill from the Carefree Tower, why don't you show it to everyone so that we can satisfy our curiosity?
Of course, we won't let you show it for nothing. We, the Chiang family's Pill Shop, are willing to pay you a Nine Transformation Bronze Pill as a reward. "
