At the mention of charging fees, the expressions of the Vermilion Bird Guards gathered around changed.
Someone said irritably, "We're all colleagues, yet you still want to charge us? Isn't that a bit black-hearted?"
"Yeah."
Many people nodded in shared indignation.
Chen Changming shook his head and said calmly, "This healing Divine Ability consumes quite a bit for me as well, so I have to charge."
"How much do you want to charge?"
Someone asked with a frown.
Chen Changming looked at Su Qingyan and asked, "Deputy Captain, may I ask how many spirit jade a Spirit Restoration Pill is worth?"
"A Spirit Restoration Pill requires fifty military merits to exchange for. If bought on the market, it costs more—at least five hundred spirit jade."
Su Qingyan said.
After a pause, she quickly added, "Spirit Restoration Pills are suited for seriously injured cultivators. For ordinary injuries, regular healing pills can be used instead. Those pills range in value from ten to a hundred spirit jade."
"Alright, I understand."
Chen Changming nodded, then said to the crowd, "We're all colleagues, so I'll charge a friendship price. For serious injuries, I'll charge two hundred spirit jade. For minor injuries, fifty spirit jade."
Two hundred for serious injuries?
Fifty for minor injuries?
After hearing this, everyone's expressions grew complicated, their gazes flickering.
"This price... actually seems pretty good."
A Vermilion Bird Guard held his breath and said stiffly, chin raised.
Only after speaking did he let that breath out.
"Mm, it's reasonable."
The other Vermilion Bird Guards nodded as well.
They understood that Chen Changming was neither family nor friend. Expecting him to treat them for free was unrealistic.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Chen Changming silently nodded.
His price was extremely reasonable. Anyone who was not an idiot would agree to it.
