Yu Qianqian and Ning Xiaochuan carried the Ice Jade Box out of the Heart Nourishing Tower.
Ning Xiaochuan consoled her, "In terms of rarity, the Ice Silkworm Pill is actually a cut above the Blood Toad Pill. Its auction price will certainly be higher as well."
Yu Qianqian's mood improved slightly. "Why?"
Ning Xiaochuan said, "Because I am about to refine Blood Toad Pills in large quantities. Once there are more of them, their price will naturally fall somewhat. The Ice Silkworm Pill is scarce, so its price will instead be higher."
Yu Qianqian said in astonishment, "You are going to refine Blood Toad Pills in bulk? Do you urgently need money lately?"
"Yes! Urgently—truly urgently." Ning Xiaochuan thought of the promise he had made before Yu Ningsheng. Only a little over ten days remained of the three-month deadline; time was pressing at his heels.
Yu Qianqian could imagine the scene of vast quantities of Blood Toad Pills being sent into the auction house. It would surely stir up a towering wave, especially with Heavenly Emperor Academy about to begin accepting new students. The talented youths hoping to test into Heavenly Emperor Academy would certainly fight until their heads bled to buy Blood Toad Pills.
Perhaps the price of Blood Toad Pills would not fall as Ning Xiaochuan had said. Instead, because of this particular period, their price might be driven even higher than usual.
Only Ning Xiaochuan could refine Blood Toad Pills in such quantities. When the time came, he would throw the entire Intermediate Pill market into chaos.
Yu Qianqian sighed. "Even if the Ice Silkworm Pill sells for more than the Blood Toad Pill, its grade truly is a notch lower. This time... I lost. This Ice Silkworm Pill is yours."
Ning Xiaochuan did not stand on
