Selling

A shop in Huanqiu City.

Second floor.

The shopkeeper made one hundred and eight vows, and it took a full quarter of an hour to finish reciting the vows in the Jade Slip.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng smiled and took out a Jade Slip, handing it to the other party.

After confirming the authenticity and effectiveness of the Pill Formula, he was greatly surprised. He had not expected that the other party's improved Pill Formula formula would have such amazing effects!

This is precisely a first-tier (Peerless Version) level Pill Formula.

Although he didn't understand why the other party wanted to sell these Pill Formula, these Pill Formula could be passed down from generation to generation, and the profits would definitely not be underestimated!

Of course, this only applies to small Lineage.

After the transaction is completed.

Yu Xiaoer continued to lead Cheng Buzheng to another shop.

Meanwhile, the other two puppets also entered Huanqiu City, going into reputable shops and selling Pill Formula.

Of course, each puppet had a Jade Slip containing a template of an oath.

With each transaction, the Spirit Stone in Cheng Buzheng's storage bag grew larger and larger, like a snowball rolling downhill.

At this moment.

Yu Xiaoer and Cheng Buzheng walked out of a shop.

Just as he was about to head to the next restaurant, Yu Xiaoer paused, turned around, and looked at Cheng Buzheng, saying:

"Senior, I've visited all the other reputable shops besides the ones you mentioned!"

"Now, only the shop where I work is left. Although its reputation is good, the price it offers for purchasing Pill Formula is the lowest."

Then, Yu Xiaoer truthfully recounted his grievances with the shopkeeper.

Upon hearing this...

Although Cheng Buzheng had anticipated this, he hadn't expected such a convoluted process!

He thought about it for a moment.

Even the smallest mosquito has meat on it.

The principle of "many things come from few to many" applies here.

Immediately, he smiled and said:

Let's go!

Yu Xiaoer did not go directly to the shop, but instead went to a mansion.

"Senior, this is the cave abode where our master is located. Perhaps if we trade with him, the price can be doubled!"

"It's also possible that the shopkeeper pocketed some of the Spirit Stone, which is why the price is so low."

Yu Xiaoer pointed to the mansion in front of him and said:

"Senior, please allow me to announce your arrival first."

Cheng Buzheng nodded in agreement.

A short while later.

A middle-aged cultivator dressed in Wild Star Robe emerged from the cave abode. Sensing the other's Spirit Pressure, he clasped his hands and said:

"Greetings, fellow Daoist. I am You Guang. May I ask your name?"

Cheng Buzheng calmly said:

"My surname is Jiang, and my given name is Ming."

"Oh, it's Fellow Daoist Jiang! Please come in!"

As he spoke, he gestured with his hand.

Enter the cave abode.

Take your seats on the left and right respectively.

You Guang asked directly:

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, are you here to sell Pill Formula?"

Business at the shop has been bad for the past few years, and now it's reached the point where it can't make ends meet and can no longer support his cultivation needs. So he is now very eager to change this situation.

Cheng Buzheng nodded slightly and said:

"I originally didn't intend to come here and bother you, fellow Daoist, but I was truly moved by your sincerity, so I came here to disturb you."

Upon hearing this...

You Guang frowned, feeling greatly Cheng Buzheng's attitude, but he didn't show any sign of it; he was quite shrewd.

Then, he glanced at the shop assistants on one side and said calmly:

"What's wrong with Xiao Yu?"

Yu Xiaoer stepped forward two steps, cupped his hands, and said:

"Boss, the prices we're offering are far too low, that's why I brought my senior here to ask about your prices."

Then Yu Xiaoer directly stated the purchase price in the shop.

Only then did You Guang realize that this member of his own Lineage was far too audacious, daring to embezzle his Spirit Stone.

He doesn't think that just because he's a member of the Lineage, he won't dare to kill, does he?

You Guang was secretly furious, but he put on an apologetic expression and said:

"Fellow Daoist, I was ignorant and inexperienced. I hope you will forgive me. This is definitely not the price I offered."

He then quoted a normal purchase price.

Immediately, You Guang, with a friendly expression, looked at Yu Xiaoer and said:

"Xiao Yu, I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Cheng Buzheng said calmly:

"Fellow Daoist, you should be disciplined."

He didn't say anything more; that one sentence was enough.

Moreover, Cheng Buzheng believed that the other party was probably itching to kill him right now. A Qi Refining Stage cultivator daring to embezzle the Spirit Stone of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was truly audacious.

If word gets out, You Guang will probably be laughed at to death by his fellow cultivators.

This also sealed the fate of the shopkeeper; unless he had a powerful backer, he would have no choice but to swallow the bitter pill.

But that's almost impossible.

If someone had powerful connections, they wouldn't stoop to being a shopkeeper.

Upon hearing this...

"Thank you for the reminder, fellow Daoist."

You Guang bowed and said:

"May I ask which Pill Formula you are selling, my friend?"

Without hesitation, Cheng Buzheng took out a Jade Slip and handed it to the other party.

This Jade Slip contains not only 108 oaths, but also the effects of various improved Pill Formula.

After reviewing...

Although You Guang was disgusted by the cruel oath, he still swore it according to its contents.

After You Guang verified the Pill Formula.

The two completed the transaction.

You Guang was carefully savoring the wonders of the Pill Formula when he turned to look at Yu Xiaoer and said:

"Xiao Yu, go see the senior off."

Cheng Buzheng didn't mind the other party's appearance, which was the reaction of most cultivators upon seeing a (Peerless Version) Pill Formula formula.

Clearly, this Pill Formula is indeed extraordinary.

This is also why Cheng Buzheng not produce the (ultimate version) Pill Formula.

Aside from keeping something in reserve.

He was afraid that some high-level cultivators obsessed with alchemy would come looking for him.

They left the cave abode.

Cheng Buzheng looked at Yu Xiaoer had been working diligently all the way, and said:

"Swear it!"

He took out a Jade Slip and tossed it to Yu Xiaoer.

Upon hearing this...

Yu Xiaoer immediately felt a sense of joy, knowing what his senior was going to reward him with.

As expected.

The Jade Slip contained dense text, a large portion of which consisted of oaths, followed by a list of Pill Formula and their effects.

Yu Xiaoer was well aware of the value of these Pill Formula, and immediately made a vicious oath without hesitation.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng smiled slightly, took out another Jade Slip and handed it to Yu Xiaoer, then drifted away.

Yu Xiaoer gripped the Jade Slip slip tightly in his hand, knowing it was his only chance to change his fate.

He no longer wanted to live a life of dependence and uncertainty, constantly having to be looked down upon.

I don't want to be abandoned at any time, without any dignity.

With this Jade Slip in hand, he no longer cared about his master's high expectations; he only wanted to make a good effort for his own life.

Cheng Buzheng's generosity in giving the Jade Slip to Yu Xiaoer stemmed from Yu Xiaoer's striking resemblance to his past life, which moved him to pity and give him a chance to turn his life around.

As for whether the other party can seize the opportunity, that depends on their fate.

Of course, Cheng Buzheng did not expect that Yu Xiaoer's achievements would exceed his expectations, and that Yu Xiaoer would become a famous alchemy master who would help him a great deal.

My momentary act of compassion has unexpectedly yielded such a reward.

This was Cheng Buzheng hadn't anticipated.

Of course, that's a story for another time!
