Xiao Licheng had imagined a thousand scenarios for his entrance, but he never expected it to be so cold.
Especially not the death of Mo Yun!
“Thank you all for your patronage. Tomorrow, our Li Family will introduce more Medicinal Liquids…” Li Lingyan’s voice rang out. It was followed by a series of sighs.
These Qi Recovery Pills and Qi Recovery Liquid were amazing, but there were just too few of them.
“Lingyan?” Hearing her voice, Xiao Licheng’s eyes immediately lit up. He pushed through the crowd and walked towards Li Lingyan.
“Lingyan, what exactly happened here?”
“Don’t call me so intimately!” Li Lingyan looked at him with undisguised disgust in her eyes, “Also, return the All Encompassing Furnace to the Lin Family. You’re not worthy of using it!”
She quickly walked into the workshop within the shop.
“Lingyan, Lingyan…” Xiao Licheng called out to her a few times, but she did not even turn her head. She completely ignored him.
This time, not just Li Lingyan, but everyone in the Li Family had seen his true colours.
“No! I won’t hand over the All Encompassing Furnace. Qin Yichen, it must be because of that guy. I won’t let this go!” After a while, Xiao Licheng hatefully gritted his teeth, his eyes revealing vicious resentment.
Before Qin Yichen came to the Li Family, he was on the rise. He and Li Lingyan were even praised as a pair of childhood sweethearts.
Li Yuanfei only had this one precious daughter. If he could win her over, then in the future, this Li Family might even fall into his hand!
But ever since Qin Yichen appeared, everything had changed.
Xiao Licheng attributed all of this to Qin Yichen!
“Li Lingyan, Qin Yichen, you’ve forced me!” Xiao Licheng looked at Li Lingyan’s back with resentment in his eyes. He soon turned and left the shop.
Asking him to hand over the All Encompassing Furnace meant that the Li Family had given up on cultivating him. Without resources, even if his talent was good, he would be stuck at this level for life. Moreover, because of him skipping out on challenging Mo Yun, it placed a huge stain on his reputation, especially in Spreading Cloud City.
As an ungrateful person, which Family would accept him?
However, he still had a trump card.
As a core member of the Li Family, he had access to many of the Li Family’s secrets, especially formulas!
The Li Family indeed gained huge profits from the Qi Recovery Pills, but relying on Qi Recovery Pills alone was not enough.
If he leaked some of the Li Family’s High Grade Pill Formulas, it would definitely be a heavy blow to the Li Family!
At that time, the Li Family might even collapse completely.
…
Meanwhile, Qin Yichen and Ye Liangchen came to the Virtuous Delight Teahouse again.
This time, Ye Liangchen no longer had any hint of contempt.
“Brother Qin, I wonder what thoughts do you have on establishing the Business Alliance?” He squinted his eyes as he probingly asked.
“How to establish the Business Alliance is your business. I’m only responsible for providing what you need, such as some Pill Formulas, Martial Arts Cultivation Techniques, and so on…” Qin Yichen chuckled.
Thanks to his previous life, he knew very well how terrifying the business mind contained in this fatty’s head was.
Just give him a chance and he could ride the wind to success!
Qin Yichen gave him his complete confidence and trust. As long as he provided the resources Ye Liangchen needed, some things that this era lacked, such as improved Pill Formulas, and some things that had not appeared in this era, Ye Liangchen could definitely establish a huge business empire!
“Hehe, you trust me so much?” Ye Liangchen said jokingly, grinning.
“Aren’t you doing the same?” Qin Yichen also chuckled.
A successful businessman would definitely put credibility first. Moreover, Qin Yichen had the capital to make this guy follow him wholeheartedly!
Ye Liangchen stared into Qin Yichen’s eyes. After a while, he slapped the table and said, “Alright then, I want a formula first, at least one that’s no less than the Li Family’s Qi Recovery Pill Formula.”
“The Qi Recovery Pill is just the most basic Medicinal Liquid. You can make some small profits with it, but it’s not enough to establish a Business Alliance.” Qin Yichen stated, and casually picked up a pen and started to write on a piece of paper.
Half a minute later, he handed two pages to Ye Liangchen. He then patted his robe and walked out.
After experiencing today’s events, it made him believe condensing his Divine Soul Bead was even more urgent. He could not wait any longer. He had to quickly refine the Sirius Pill and condense his Divine Soul Bead!
Only by condensing his Divine Soul Bead could he operate his Spirit Body Technique to perfection, and thus step onto the path he regretted not walking in his previous life… the path of being a Martial Artist.
Alchemy Master, although a noble profession, it was just a supplement. The true rulers of this world were those two cultivated Martial Arts!
After Qin Yichen left, Ye Liangchen eagerly picked up the first sheet of paper. When the first three characters entered his eyes, his pupils suddenly contracted.
‘Meridians Cleansing Pill’
“Spirit Cleansing Grass, Black Earth Ant, ten year old Green Vine…”
On this piece of paper, it listed the required materials, amounts, and even detailed steps for how to refine at each stage. Everything was clearly written down.
“Effect… can cleanse the Physique of ordinary people. As long as it’s not a Special Physique, even those without any foundation, as long as they take one pill, can become a Martial Artist!”
“This… how is this possible?!” Ye Liangchen held the scroll with trembling hands. His small eyes had widened to plates.
As the only son of the Ye Family, he had access to vast amounts of information. Yet, he had never heard of such a Pill that could cleanse one’s Meridians.
On the continent, when a person was born, their Physique was fixed. Countless people, due to their Physique, could never step into the Dao of Martial Arts in their lifetime, and could only regretfully engage in other professions.
Just like the Ancestors of the Ye Family.
Moreover, if one could not step into the Dao of Martial Arts, they could at most live to seventy or eighty years old. But once they condense a Martial Body Bead and become a true Martial Artist, barring any accidents, living to ninety was considered to be normal. They might even live to a hundred years old.
If it’s really as the paper described, as long as one takes the Meridians Cleansing Pill, they would be qualified to become a Martial Artist. If so, this formula could not just be described as precious. It was simply a Heaven defying Pill Formula!
Ye Liangchen could not even imagine what kind of sensation it would cause if this Pill Formula were to spread.
Probably even the Families in the Royal City would spare no effort to compete for it.
However, what Ye Liangchen did not know was that this Meridians Cleansing Pill Formula, to Qin Yichen, was just a slightly better formula among the most common ones.
Because, thousands of years later, this formula would be as common as the Qi Recovery Liquid formula right now. It would almost be a household item.
After all, this Meridians Cleansing Pill could not completely improve a person’s martial arts cultivation talent. It was just used to clear the meridians, allowing people to condense their Innate Martial Body Bead. Even if they condensed a Martial Body Bead, without great opportunities, they would eventually stop at their limit of the Martial Master Realm.
