"Then I'll start making some medicine now—medicinal powders, decoctions, that sort of thing. When the time comes, I'll ask the restaurant owner to sell them. I'll give it a try first."
Xiao Changge said, then took out quite a few materials. These had originally been meant for cultivation, but he was now using them to refine medicine.
He was refining ordinary medicines, not pills.
Electrolux watched from the side and took the opportunity to learn how to process these medicinal ingredients. Perhaps he could use it to develop new magic in the future, or at least draw inspiration from it.
Very quickly, they produced a pile of excellent medicines, such as medicinal powder that could heal wounds with remarkable speed, as well as decoctions that treated internal injuries.
There were many other similar medicines as well, all of them quite good.
"These medicines should fetch a good price on Douluo Continent. With the money earned from selling them, you should be able to buy enough cultivation resources.
By then, you should be able to cultivate better as well. I can only blame myself for being useless. I'm merely a residual soul now and can't help you. I can only use Necromantic Magic and the like when you need it."
At that moment, Electrolux spoke his true feelings. In his eyes, being only a residual soul meant that he could not help Xiao Changge.
When Xiao Changge had been bullied at Shrek Academy and even driven out of Shrek City, he had been unable to help at all.
"Teacher, don't say that. Your Light Magic helped me when I was refining medicine, and I don't blame you. You're in the state of a residual soul—what can you do? Honestly, if I were a residual soul, I might not be able to help as much as you.
Teacher, you're already incredible. You're such a powerful existence. I'm already very satisfied that you can help me."
Xiao Changge was telling the truth. Electrolux had indeed helped him a great deal. For example, Electrolux had helped him obtain his Tier 2 Beast Fire.
Electrolux had already provided Xiao Changge with so much help. What right did he have to be picky?
Xiao Changge was not an ungrateful person.
He considered himself no good person, but he knew how to repay kindness. If he owed someone a favor, he would definitely repay it.
That was also the education he had received in his previous life. If he owed someone a favor or a debt of gratitude, he had to repay it no matter what.
Otherwise, he would be disloyal, unrighteous, unkind, and unfilial.
Therefore, Xiao Changge knew how to be grateful.
Soon, it was the next morning.
"My heavens, these medicinal powders and decoctions are incredible! Their effects are so good. The wound on my arm has already healed. This medicinal powder is far too amazing! Did you make all of these?"
The restaurant owner looked at Xiao Changge curiously, hardly daring to believe that Xiao Changge could produce such powerful medicinal powders and so many excellent medicines.
It was practically a miracle. There were all kinds of ordinary medicines on Douluo Continent that could treat various injuries, but none of them were as good as what Xiao Changge had made.
"My teacher made these for me. I have a very formidable teacher, and he taught me this. I hope to sell these medicines. Since I'm the one mainly responsible for making them, I'll take sixty percent, while you take forty percent. Is that acceptable?"
That was already very generous. Since Xiao Changge was the one making them, it was only right for him to take the larger share, and he was only taking sixty percent.
The restaurant owner could take forty percent just for providing a sales channel. For such a minor task, receiving forty percent was already an excellent deal, like money falling from the sky.
"Of course, there's no problem," the restaurant owner said.
Afterward, the restaurant owner quickly used his network of contacts to begin selling the medicines, earning a considerable amount of money.
As they had agreed beforehand, the restaurant owner took forty percent, while Xiao Changge received sixty percent.
Xiao Changge would use his share to buy cultivation resources. The restaurant owner, however, was different. He ran a chain of restaurants, improved employee benefits and salaries, and expanded into other industries, such as selling beverages. The Sun Moon Empire had beverages, and selling them in the Douluo Three Kingdoms could bring in a great deal of money.
It could be said that the restaurant owner had a real head for business. He knew how to open up new fronts. If one front reached a bottleneck, he would open another.
At the same time, the restaurant owner was a very good person and gave Xiao Changge some useful connections for obtaining cultivation resources.
Thus, the restaurant owner was already a very kind man. The connections he provided also allowed Xiao Changge to obtain cultivation resources at relatively low prices. That was already excellent.
"Teacher, now we have money and resources. That's great! We won't have to worry about money anymore. I estimate that I'll reach level 30 by tomorrow."
Xiao Changge was now a level 29 Soul Grandmaster, just like Yu Xiaogang had once been. However, Xiao Changge possessed Innate Full Soul Power at level 30.
If not for Ma Xiaotao, he would have already become a level 50 Soul King, or even a level 60 Soul Emperor.
After all, Innate Soul Power determined one's cultivation talent and cultivation speed. Without Ma Xiaotao, he would only be a Soul King, a Soul Emperor, or perhaps even a Soul Saint.
It was all thanks to Shrek. How could he possibly be happy?
Xiao Changge thought, You're so impressive. You're so noble. You used my future to secure your own position—shameless to the extreme. Now, I'll climb step by step to the very top. I'll take revenge on Shrek.
"Very soon, you'll be able to obtain your third Soul Ring. What kind of Soul Ring do you plan to acquire for it? Your second Soul Ring is already more than forty thousand years old. What age do you intend for your third Soul Ring? Personally, I think you should obtain one around sixty thousand years old. That would be safer.
"Your body built up a solid foundation both during your time at Shrek and over this recent period. Although you couldn't improve your Martial Soul at Shrek because Ma Xiaotao was constantly absorbing from you, you did train your body. Your physical strength should at least be able to withstand the pressure brought by a Soul Ring.
"However, a Soul Ring around seventy thousand years old would still be too much for you. I recommend one around sixty thousand years old. That would be better. Before that, though, you still need to train your body more.
"I'll also provide the harshest training possible and make sure you become very strong."
Electrolux said this because physical strength was also extremely important when absorbing a Soul Ring. Otherwise, one's body might explode. Yu Xiaogang's Soul Ring Limit Absorption Theory was nothing but a joke.
