248: Chapter 236_1 248: Chapter 236_1 Japanese?
Yao Ye followed Lv Zhong’s gaze, recognized who the man was, and chuckled, “That Japanese person is Teng Ye You Xiong, the younger brother of Taiyo Chemical’s board director Tengye Shininu.
He is a savage and lecherous man.
His reputation in our Sanxiang Club is quite bad.”
A hint of chilly killing intent flashed through Lv Zhong’s eyes.
This Teng Ye You Xiong carried the scent of the virus but strangely, this fellow had not been invaded by the virus itself.
That’s because there was a particular energy fluctuation in his body which prevented the virus from restraining him.
Lv Zhong’s gaze fell on the gray ring embellished with a skull on Teng Ye You Xiong’s left hand and immediately understood.
Though it was a low-grade Spiritual Weapon, its mere presence in the mortal world was enough to shock anyone.
Lv Zhong gave Teng Ye You Xiong a strange look.
This Japanese man wasn’t exceptional by any means, his cultivation equal to an ordinary warrior in the mortal world at the Dark Force Stage.
How could he control a low-grade Spiritual Weapon?
“That’s not right!” Lv Zhong frowned, somewhat puzzled.
However, he had developed an interest in this Teng Ye You Xiong and the power behind him.
So, he curiously asked, “Sister Yao Ye, can you tell me about Teng Ye You Xiong and Taiyo Chemical?”
Although Yao Ye didn’t understand why Lv Zhong was interested in this Japanese, she began her explanation, “Teng Ye You Xiong himself isn’t remarkable, but his family in Japan is an extremely powerful clandestine force, similar in strength to the overt forces of Mitsui and Mitsubishi.
Mitsui and Mitsubishi have a close relationship with the Japanese military, but the Teng Ye Clan has direct connections with the Japanese Emperor.
Taiyo Chemical was founded by Tengye Shininu.
Now, in our Xiangnan province, Taiyo Chemical owns over ten branch companies.
The market value is approximately 20 billion…”
So they have more than ten branch companies?
Lv Zhong was slightly surprised.
After a while, he asked, “Sister Yao Ye, what kind of products does Taiyo Chemical typically produce?”
Yao Ye chuckled, “Taiyo Chemical primarily produces coatings, food additives, dyes, and pharmaceuticals.
Not only are they technologically advanced, but they also have robust strength.
Their chemical products are extremely competitive, not only in Xiangnan Province but across the entire country.”
Hearing this, Lv Zhong’s face changed.
He hadn’t expected that Taiyo Chemical would venture into the food additives and pharmaceutical sectors.
If the Japanese had any malicious intentions, it could be a real disaster for our people.
This worry wasn’t unfounded.
Because Teng Ye You Xiong carried a highly aggressive virus.
Moreover, Du Wenlong and Miao Zhuer had been poisoned by Teng Ye You Xiong’s elder brother, Tengye Shininu.
With this thought, Lv Zhong surreptitiously dispatched a few Level 3 [Soul Devouring Bugs] to secretly monitor Teng Ye You Xiong.
There were only four [Fixed Color Pills], [Rejuvenation Pills] up for auction that day, so the auction ended rather quickly.
To Lv Zhong’s surprise and delight, these four pills fetched a whopping total of 2 billion in the auction.
Even with a fifty-fifty split, Lv Zhong still stood to make a profit of 1 billion.
This was indeed delightful.
When Yao Ye and he arrived at the Sanxiang Club’s treasure room, Yao Ye said to Lv Zhong with a beaming smile, “Brother Lv Zhong, there are many high-quality jades here.
You can see which ones you need.
In addition, based on the blueprint you provided, we’ve found over ten types of medicinal herbs and ores.
However, we couldn’t gather much of each.”
In truth, as soon as Lv Zhong entered the treasure room of the Sanxiang Club, he had expanded his spiritual sense.
The treasure room was small, with an area of around 100 square meters, located underneath this villa.
Of course, Lv Zhong’s spiritual sense could easily cover the entire treasure room.
To be honest, although the Sanxiang Club has risen recently as a private club, the strength and energy behind it are astonishing.
In this small treasure room of 100 plus square meters, there were numerous antiques and treasures.
Lv Zhong’s powerful spiritual sense could sense that many of the antiques were newly unearthed, some still exuding a faint Yin Sha Qi.
Many of the jades were newly mined, even the medicinal herbs were extremely fresh and well-preserved.
Without missing a single detail about every item, Lv Zhong memorized everything.
Afterward, he withdrew his spiritual sense and released a long sigh of relief.
Turning his head, he looked deeply at Yao Ye and said, “Sister Yao Ye, I didn’t expect Sanxiang Club to have a special Gold Verification Officer.
However, you should try not to enter this treasure room as much as possible.
Moreover, you should avoid touching the antiques in here…”
Yao Ye could feel the goodwill in Lv Zhong’s words and was slightly touched.
She let out a delicate laugh and said pitifully, “Working here, I practically deal with these things daily.
Not touching these things would actually be quite difficult.
Hehe, little brother Zhong, as a divine physician, since you know these items are harmful, you should also be able to treat.
Do you think you could treat your sister?
Could you, please?” She even pulled Lv Zhong’s arms, thinking that he was joking with her and prepared to tease him back.
Yao Ye was naturally charming and enchanting, this flirtatious act made Lv Zhong’s heart skip a beat.
Lv Zhong’s determination wasn’t weak, he rolled his eyes and replied, “Even a divine physician can’t do everything.”
Although Yao Ye carried an enchanting demonic aura, Lv Zhong found her rather decent, and also believed it would be beneficial to owe her a favor which could strengthen their cooperation.
Therefore, Lv Zhong didn’t want her to be affected by the Yin energy of these antiques.
He abruptly changed the subject, saying, “Never mind, in a few days, I will get you a jade talisman consecrated by a high-ranking monk.”
The excuse was that he was asking for a monk’s blessing, but naturally, it was Lv Zhong himself who was doing the job!
Having inherited from the Plague God Lv Yue, Lv Zhong was far superior in exorcism than any high-ranking monks of Buddhism.
A consecrated talisman?
Yao Ye was surprised and asked, “Little brother Zhong, are you serious?
is there really any evil qi here?”
Lv Zhong answered impatiently, “Of course, did you think I was joking?” After saying that, Lv Zhong subtly pulled his hands away from Yao Ye’s grasp.
“So why am I still fine?” Yao Ye asked again.
As Lv Zhong walked a few steps forward, he explained, “You haven’t been working here for long.
The evil Yin energy that invaded your body is not significant and fatal.
But there are already some signs.
Haven’t you been feeling cold all over your body these past couple of years, even in the summer?
And you’ve been having restless nights, often plagued by nightmares?”
Yao Ye was startled, her smile vanished in an instant, replaced with shock and fear.
She found everything Lv Zhong described to be true.
“Is…is there really anything like…ghosts and evil Yin qi in this world?”
Even though she had plentiful experiences and remarkable composure, she was genuinely frightened this time by Lv Zhong.
Lv Zhong gave a light chuckle and said, “Ghosts are rare in this world, but evil Yin Qi does exist.
But Yao Ye sister, you don’t need to worry.
Once I get the consecration talisman for you, no ordinary Yin Qi can get close to your body.”
Suppressing the fear in her heart, Yao Ye gave Lv Zhong a deep look and quickly said, “Thanks so much, Little Zhong.”
“No need for formalities.
It’s beneficial for me if Yao Ye sister is healthy,” Lv Zhong smiled and responded, “Enough with the talk, I am going to start picking treasures.”
After a few exchanges with Yao Ye, Lv Zhong began to select treasures he wanted from the treasure room.
There were plenty of jades, which were of high quality in the secular world.
But there were only about twenty pieces that Lv Zhong found suitable for making talismans.
However, there were several types of ores in this treasure room that were very valuable.
For example, Xuan Guang Stone, Dragon-patterned Jade, Red Sun Copper, and Yin-absorbing Iron.
These four kinds of ores, if used properly, could be turned into high-quality treasure weapons given Lv Zhong’s current strength.
Of course, if Lv Zhong could advance to the Golden Core Realm, it was not impossible to produce a low-grade spirit artifact.
As for the medicinal herbs, Sanxiang Club had collected some according to the list, mostly for Lv Zhong to feed his alien insects.
With specific medicinal pills made from these herbs, the evolution of the alien insects could be accelerated.
However, it was a pity that the herbs collected by the people of Sanxiang Club were incomplete and their quality wasn’t as good as Lv Zhong had expected.
Therefore, for now, Lv Zhong couldn’t produce any type of pills.
After the selection of all the treasures, Yao Ye arranged for some people to sort out these things for Lv Zhong and also arranged for a car to send Lv Zhong back to Yaxiang Medical College.
After returning from the auction at Sanxiang Club, the brothers Teng Ye Shininu and Teng Ye You Xiong gathered.
“You Xiong, how did it go?
Did you win the auction for the Age-Locking Pills and Rejuvenation Pills?” At the head of the table, Teng Ye Shininu looked sternly at his younger brother and asked.
Teng Ye You Xiong grinned and said, “Second brother, these people from Sanxiang Club are despicable.
They didn’t sell the Age-Locking Pills and Rejuvenation Pills together.
And they only auctioned four pills in total.
I only won one Rejuvenation Pill to avoid arousing the suspicion and resentment of the people of Sanxiang Club.
As for the Age-Locking Pills, I’m planning to win them at the next auction.”
Upon hearing this, Teng Ye Shininu furrowed his brows and sighed after a while, “You did well.”
Hearing his second brother’s praise, Teng Ye You Xiong laughed and said, “Second brother, the effects of these Age-Locking Pills and Rejuvenation Pills are shocking.
If we have the formula for these pills, our Teng Ye clan could definitely become a top-notch family in the world…” He suddenly stopped talking and quickly asked Teng Ye Shininu, “By the way, second brother, have you found out who is the owner of these two types of pills?
Do we have a chance to get the formulas from him?”
