A favor

Xiao Yu glanced at the four people speechlessly before slowly saying, "Actually, I didn't originally intend to sell this pill!"

"No, no!" Luo Jingyao said, looking at Xiao Yu with a pained expression.

Xiao Yu simply waved his hand and continued, "But since you're all so sincere in your offers, if I don't make a move, wouldn't I be making a fool of myself?"

The group nodded, and Xiao Yu continued, "I heard all the prices you offered. Compared to the prices offered by the other three guild leaders, I think President Fama's price is the most attractive to me. Therefore, I will sell this Crimson Soul Pill to Luo Jingyao Leader Luo Jingyao!"

"Huh! Huh?" Fama was about to reach out and take the pill from Xiao Yu's hand, but before he could get his hands on it, he heard Xiao Yu say that he was selling it to Luo Jingyao, and he was immediately dumbfounded!

Luo Jingyao was still immersed in her joy, but she quickly recovered and took out her pills, prescriptions, and Dou Technique from her Storage Ring. After handing them to Xiao Yu, she carefully put away the Crimson Soul Pill and said with a smile, "Thank you for your help, hahaha!"

After exchanging a glance, the Old Woman Zhang and Mu Lanfa looked at Xiao Yu and Mu Lanfa, "If you can get the medicinal herbs, could you help us refine one of these Crimson Soul Pill?"

Xiao Yu stroked his chin and said, "That's certainly possible, but the ingredients for the Crimson Soul Pill are quite rare, especially the Scarlet Soul Fruit. Moreover, if you want it after it's successfully refined, you'll have to exchange it for two pill formulas and three Mysterious Tier High-Grade Dou Skill!"

"Don't worry about that. If you can refine it, I will definitely prepare all the necessary ingredients for you. As for the reward, you can decide!" Mu Lanfa said directly.

After hearing this, Xiao Yu wrote down the medicinal materials needed to refine the Crimson Soul Pill on a piece of paper and handed it to Mu Lanfa and her Old Woman Zhang. The two of them accepted it without hesitation.

After the three of them left, Fama stood aside, coughed, and said, "Xiao Yu, you see, our relationship is pretty good, right? You should sell me the Crimson Soul Pill, especially since the price I offered wasn't low, was it?"

Xiao Yu looked at Fama and smiled, "President Fama, of course I can't forget you. However, although the Crimson Soul Pill Crimson Soul Pill can enhance Soul Power, after consuming one, it means you can no longer advance further. In other words, you will be stuck at the Sixth Grade Alchemist for life!"

Fama was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, but then said, "Even if I can only break through to the Sixth Grade Pills, that would be great! This old man has been stuck at the peak of the fifth grade for many years. If I could break through to the Sixth Grade Alchemist directly with the Crimson Soul Pill, I would have no regrets in this life!"

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "I still have pills here that can enhance my Soul Power without harming me. Why bother with the Crimson Soul Pill?"

Fama was suddenly stunned, then stared wide-eyed at Xiao Yu and said, "You, you mean you have an even better pill than the Crimson Soul Pill?"

Xiao Yu smiled mysteriously and said, "Of course, but President Fama, not to be rude, but it's not impossible for me to refine it. The Crimson Soul Pill is easy to refine, but the other one is Seventh-grade Pill. Are you sure you want to gamble? Besides, I also have a need for it!"

After hearing this, Fama replied directly, "Tell me your needs, and I will definitely fulfill them!"

"Alright, since President Fama has said so, I'll be frank as well. The Underworld's Medicine Hall needs high-level alchemists. After I take my people to Central Plains, I hope President Fama can help establish the Underworld's Medicine Hall. What do you say?" Xiao Yu said, looking at Fama.

Fama chuckled helplessly, "So this is what you were waiting for? First, you used the Crimson Soul Pill Crimson Soul Pill to pique my curiosity, and then you said there were even better pills to get my request. It seems you've wanted to go to Central Plains for a long time, haven't you?"

Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "I definitely want to go to Central Plains. After all, the Northwest Continent can't compare to Central Plains. I want to go Central Plains and see for myself the geniuses there!"

Fama and said, "Even the most outstanding talents in the Central Plains wouldn't be considered outstanding talents in front of you!"

Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled, "What does President Fama think?"

Fama said, "Since you've put it that way, wouldn't it be disrespectful of you if I disagreed?"

Hearing that Fama had agreed, Xiao Yu smiled and said, "President Fama, rest assured, I will definitely deliver the pills to you before I leave Central Plains!"

After the conversation here ended, the Alchemist Tournament in the square also came to a complete close. Everyone had successfully refined pills, but there were differences in their skill levels.

Xiao Yu's pills were of such high quality that he was already the champion of this year's Alchemist Tournament. Xiao Yu told Fama that he could give his championship reward to Huo Yue'er to bring back, and then he left to return to Black Mountain Fortress.

After returning to Black Mountain Fortress, Xiao Yu did not see Cai Lin and Zi Yan, assuming that the two had gone out to play. When he returned to his room, he only found a letter on the table with Cai Lin's handwriting on it.

Xiao Yu frowned after reading it and said, "Something happened to the Snake People Clan? I didn't see the Luoyan Sect just now. Could it be that the three great empires made a move? Then what's the point of them holding this Alchemist Grand Meeting?"

"Forget it, let's go to the Snake People Clan first!" After thinking for a while, Xiao Yu decided to go directly to the Snake People Clan. As soon as he stepped outside, he saw several figures standing outside the door. The leader was Yao Zhantian, and standing next to Yao Zhantian was Jia Xingtian, whom he hadn't seen for a long time!

To Xiao Yu's surprise, Yun Yun was also standing outside the door with Little Xiao Nian. Jia Xingtian stepped forward and bowed slightly to Xiao Yu, saying, "I haven't yet thanked you for saving my life, young friend Xiao Yu!"

Xiao Yu smiled faintly and said, "It's alright. Elder Jia was also deceived by the Soul Clan, which is why he ended up like this!"

Jia Xingtian shook his head slightly and said, "It was also because I was too eager for quick success. If I hadn't been so eager to break through to the Dou Zong realm, I wouldn't have ended up like this!"

Xiao Yu didn't say anything after hearing this, after all, it was his own choice. Yun Yun led Little Xiao Nian to Xiao Yu's side, and Xiao Yu looked at Yun Yun and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Yun Yun smiled slightly and said, "I finished dealing with the matters of the Misty Cloud Sect, so I thought I'd come here to take a look. I ran into Elder Jia on the way, so we came together!"

Xiao Yu nodded slightly, then looked at Elder Jia, "Elder Jia, what brings you here this time?"

Jia Xingtian glanced at Yao Zhantian and said, "Actually, Yao Ye and I both knew that the three great empires wanted to take action against the Jia Ma Empire. This time, I also want to ask my young friend Xiao Yu for a favor!"

Xiao Yu frowned slightly and asked, "What is it?"

Jia Xingtian quickly replied, "Actually, it's nothing serious. I just wanted to ask young friend Xiao Yu to help the Imperial Family refine a pill!"

"Oh?"

Seeing that things seemed promising, Jia Xingtian said directly, "I would like to ask my young friend Xiao Yu to help the Imperial Family refine a Primal Bone Sculpting Pill!"
