"If it’s just Tier 2 medicinal ingredients and Magic Cores, it’s still manageable. But for Tier 3, I’m afraid Wu Tan City won’t be able to supply them in large quantities."
Xian’er frowned. "Does that mean we have to move to the imperial capital or live in a big city like Black Rock City?"
Tier 2 medicinal ingredients were still easy to obtain.
Rank 2 Magic Cores, however, required hunting Rank 2 Magic Beasts, which were equivalent to Dou Shi-level experts.
Rank 3 Magic Cores were even harder to obtain, as they required hunting Rank 3 Magic Beasts, equivalent to Da Dou Shi-level experts.
On top of that, Tier 3 medicinal ingredients weren’t common goods either.
To be honest, Wu Tan City absolutely couldn’t supply them in large quantities for the two of them to practice with.
"There’s a place that might meet our needs," Wei Yang murmured while stroking his chin.
He thought of that small valley in the original novel, filled with cheap medicinal ingredients and abnormally dense spiritual energy.
That was the place where Xiao Yixian had discovered and brought Xiao Yan to.
Later, when Xiao Yan and Zi Yan broke through to Dou Huang, it was also in that valley.
The valley had abundant low-cost medicinal ingredients and an extremely rich spiritual aura.
Plus, it was located within the Magic Beast Mountain Range. If they needed Magic Cores while refining pills in seclusion, they could simply hunt Magic Beasts themselves.
Thinking of this, Wei Yang smiled at Xian’er and said, "I’ve thought of a good place that should meet our needs."
"Oh, really? Where is it?" Xian’er blinked.
"The Magic Beast Mountain Range," Wei Yang said.
Hearing this, Xian’er immediately rolled her eyes cutely and pouted, "So what you mean is, we have to gather the medicinal ingredients ourselves and hunt the Magic Beasts ourselves?"
"Hunting Magic Beasts is one thing, but searching for medicinal ingredients would take a lot of time. Wouldn’t it be easier to have the Xiao Clan and the Mittel Auction House collect them for us?"
Xian’er continued, "After all, we can have them sell the pills we refine, so we don’t have to worry about only spending money without making any."
"No, we only need to hunt Magic Beasts ourselves. We don’t need to worry about low-tier medicinal ingredients."
Wei Yang chuckled and explained, "The place I’m talking about is a hidden valley filled with low-tier medicinal ingredients, even with a good amount of common Tier 2 and Tier 3 medicinal ingredients."
"There’s really such a good place?" Xian’er’s eyes sparkled. "Then let’s go right now!"
"Let’s rest for two days first."
Wei Yang stood up, stretched lazily, and waved his hand to store the large number of jade bottles on the table into his storage ring. "I’m going out for a bit to hand these Tier 1 pills to the Xiao Clan for sale. We’ll depart in two days."
"Alright," Xian’er nodded.
For the past month and a half, they had been either studying or refining pills without a break. They were mentally exhausted, so taking two days to rest was a good idea.
"Brother Yang, I feel like I can break through to Dou Ling now," Xian’er said with a smile as she watched Wei Yang prepare to leave.
Without stopping, Wei Yang waved his hand. "Your breakthrough will cause quite a commotion, and your poison gas might leak. It’s better to wait until we reach the valley."
"Oh," Xian’er shrugged.
She had originally planned to take advantage of these two days to break through to Dou Ling.
But Wei Yang was right.
A Dou Ling breakthrough was naturally a big event, with the surrounding spiritual energy surging in response, making it highly noticeable.
It might even alert the entire Wu Tan City.
When Wei Yang had broken through to Dou Ling, he had gone deep into the Magic Beast Mountain Range alone before coming back.
Moreover, she possessed the Woeful Poison Body. During her breakthrough, her poison gas would be hard to fully control and might leak.
That would cause an even bigger commotion.
Xiao Clan Marketplace
Wei Yang walked into the market, casually strolling around.
It was a way to relax his mind while waiting for someone from the Xiao Clan to come find him.
Before long, a few Xiao Clan guards arrived, bringing a steward along.
The steward was named Xiao Feng, a Four-Star Dou Shi, and one of the people responsible for managing the day-to-day affairs of the marketplace.
Xiao Feng approached Wei Yang with a slightly respectful tone and smiled, "Physician Wei, you’re here. Are you looking to purchase medicinal ingredients from our market this time?"
As for this important client, Xiao Feng naturally wouldn’t dare to show the slightest neglect.
Previously, this young master had purchased a massive batch of low-tier medicinal ingredients from the market, spending no less than fifty thousand gold coins in a single transaction.
Even the patriach and several elders had been alarmed by it.
Thanks to that, the Xiao Clan had made a huge profit.
For one of the three major families in Wu Tan City, a transaction exceeding fifty thousand gold coins was considered a major deal—something they might not even land once a year.
It was purely an unexpected windfall.
Most of the time, they relied on steady, long-term profits.
Wei Yang nodded. "I do need something, but not to purchase—to sell. The deal is quite big, so have your patriach come over."
"Sell? A big deal?" Xiao Feng’s eyes immediately lit up.
He recalled that Wei Yang had previously purchased a large quantity of medicinal ingredients from their market. Could it be...?
Thinking of this, Xiao Feng’s expression turned serious, and his attitude became even more respectful. "Would Physician Wei be willing to visit our Xiao Clan personally? I’m sure our patriach and elders would make it worth your while."
As he spoke, Xiao Feng’s gaze cautiously swept across the surroundings. He then lowered his voice and said, "There are too many eyes and ears here... It’d be quieter if we discussed things at the Xiao Clan, away from prying eyes."
Xiao Feng was being extremely cautious. He knew for a fact that their marketplace was infiltrated by spies from the other two major families.
If word got out, things could turn troublesome.
Even though Wei Yang had come directly to the Xiao Clan’s market, there was no guarantee that he wouldn’t be swayed by better offers from the other two families.
Wei Yang glanced at him, amused.
Of course, he understood what Xiao Feng was thinking. Chapters first released on novel⟡fire.net
It was nothing more than fear of competition.
For a small deal , Wei Yang didn’t really care who he worked with. The only reason he chose the Xiao Clan was out of convenience.
After all, it was his fellow hometown hero’s family—might as well show them some goodwill.
"Go to the Xiao Clan?"
Wei Yang thought for a moment before smiling and nodding. "Alright, let’s go."
"Physician Wei, please follow me." Xiao Feng was overjoyed and quickly led the way personally.
At the same time, he instructed a Xiao Clan guard to rush back to inform the patriach and elders to prepare for Wei Yang’s arrival.
Along the way, Xiao Feng guided him forward while several stern-faced guards surrounded Wei Yang protectively, their sharp gazes sweeping the area vigilantly.
This scene drew the curiosity of many passersby, who couldn’t help but steal glances.
They wondered who this young man dressed in luxurious black robes embroidered with golden patterns was. With his handsome features and extraordinary aura, he was receiving such VIP treatment from the Xiao Clan.
Despite the attention, Xiao Feng was smart enough not to chatter endlessly or try to butter up Wei Yang. Instead, he remained respectfully silent while leading the way.
Wei Yang appreciated this.
It even made him think a little better of the Xiao Clan.
He found it most annoying when people buzzed in his ear like flies, endlessly trying to please him.
Before long, they arrived at the Xiao Clan’s residence.
From a distance, Wei Yang could already see that at the main entrance, the Xiao Clan’s Patriach, Xiao Zhan, was waiting in person along with the three elders and several important members of the clan.
Clearly, the Xiao Clan was treating his visit with great importance.
Among them, two figures caught Wei Yang’s attention—a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young man and a beautiful girl with an elegant, lotus-like aura.
Wei Yang’s gaze lingered on the two for a brief moment before casually shifting away.
Finally, it’s time to formally meet ah!
Hello fellow villager, let’s get acquainted, my name is Wei Yang.
