CHAPTER 819: CHAPTER 819: THESE PILLS ARE GEMS
Sir Doung nodded. Xie Ruolan showed Sir Doung the glass bottle.
"May I take a look at the pills?" Sir Doung asked.
"Yes." Xie Ruolan nodded.
Sir Doung opened the glass bottle. Once the bottle was opened, the medicinal smell came out. Sir Doung’s eyebrows lifted up.
"This... This..." Sir Doung was stammering due to excitement.
However, Xie Ruolan’s parent took that on the wrong side. They really thought that their daughter had been scammed.
"These pills are high rank pills. They are Mighty Huang Pill. The breakthrough pills. Young Lady Xie, where do you get gems?" Sir Doung asked Xie Ruolan excitedly.
Xie Ruolan’s parent were stunned by Sir Doung’s reaction.
"I get from someone. Sir Doung, may I know about their price in the market?" Xie Ruolan asked back.
"Breakthrough pill is really high in demand. Even a low rank is expensive. Not to mention, these pills are high-rank pills. If they go into the auction, one of these pills could reach the price of 50 million gold, not tael." Sir Doung said.
Xie Ruolan’s parents were shocked by the price. Their daughter spent 200 million gold and got 10 high rank breakthrough pills.
"The alchemist is so talented. Not only could he concoct the high rank pill, but he also concocted so many of them in one go." Sir Doung said.
"What do you mean by that?" Mr Xie asked.
"A normal alchemist often concocts one; if he is lucky, he can concoct two of the pills in one process. So, it is rare to get so many pills in one process. But when looking at these pills’ pattern, I can conclude that they had been created in one single process. The alchemist must be so talented. His alchemist rank must be at the Venerable rank or higher. Tell me, where do you get these pills? I would like to meet the alchemist." Sir Doung asked.
"Like I asked, I got them from someone. And I don’t think she is the alchemist." Xie Ruolan said.
She did not think that Bai Xifeng was the alchemist because she was an array master. She also thought Bai Xifeng probably disliked being disturbed. If she told Sir Doung about Bai Xifeng, Sir Doung was probably going to find her and disturb her.
"I see..." Sir Doung was a little bit disappointed.
Sir Doung excused himself to leave. Xie Ruolan’s parent thanked Sir Doung for coming to their house.
"Ruolan, tell Father, who gives you those pills?" Mr Xie asked.
"Father, I already told you about that. Because the beast that I chose ended performing the contract ritual with the girl, that girl compensated me with those pills." Xie Ruolan repeated the story.
"Is she the alchemist?" Mr Xie asked.
"I don’t think so." Xie Ruolan shook her head.
"Why?" Mr Xie asked back.
"Because she is an array master." Xie Ruolan said.
"I see." Mr Xie nodded.
He also did not think of the possibility that the girl his daughter mentioned could be both the array master and the alchemist.
"Well, you should meet with her again. Find out where she got the pills from." Mr Xie suggested.
"No need to ask her. She told me where she got the pills from." Xie Ruolan stated.
"Where?" Mr Xie was eager to know.
"It is from a shop in the Capital City. Its name is Heavenly Mountain Herbs. It sold herbs, medicine, elixir and pills." Xie Ruolan stated.
"Capital City?" Mr Xie mumbled.
"Yes." Xie Ruolan nodded.
"Hmm... I will take a look at the shop." Mr Xie said.
He was a businessman. He saw a business opportunity. He would go and visit the shop and ask if they were willing to open their shop in his city.
"I am going to go into the closed-door cultivation after taking the pill. I will try to break through." Xie Ruolan said.
"Is it okay? The Tianlong School entrance test will be held in one week. Do you really want to try to break through at this moment? What if you can not break through and miss the deadline?" Mrs Xie expressed her worry.
"It’s fine. If I miss the deadline, I will try it next year." Xie Ruolan assured her mother.
Mrs Xie sighed. "If you say so, then, fine. Do your best."
"Thank you, Mother." Xie Ruolan smiled.
....
Pegasus finally grasped the real situation in the Mirror World. He explored the place. During its exploration, he met with Princess Huahua, Mori and Anya.
All of them were stronger than him. Not to mention they all could speak the human language. As he explored, he came across a Divine Beast. His legs almost gave up on the spot.
"Oh... You must be the new one." Heishe looked at Pegasus. "Hmm, you seem weaker than others."
Pegasus looked at Heishe with trembling legs.
"How about I eat you? You can be strong by being part of mine." Heishe grinned.
"She will be angry at you if you try eating what’s hers."
Pegasus saw another divine beast. His legs gave up. He sat on the ground looking at the two divine beasts.
Baishe sensed the fear in Pegasus.
"Well, the black one said is right. You are indeed weaker than others. You should cultivate more." Baishe said.
Pegasus did not dare to say anything. He could just only nod his head. Indeed, he needed to cultivate more and get stronger.
