Chapter 131: Young Master, This Matter Requires Caution

However, after taking a look at this pill, Manager Yi couldn’t help but show a troubled expression.

“To be honest,” he raised his hand and said, “although there is a second-grade alchemist in the Spring Rain Trading Company, he is unable to refine this Internal Breath Pill. In the past, we have always purchased it from other forces. The demand within the trading company is also limited, so at present, we can only provide three pills at most. Even if we bring all the stock from the headquarters, I’m afraid it won’t exceed ten pills.”

Shen Xing’s eyebrows furrowed.

Ten pills? That’s not enough.

He needed at least two pills a day, and that’s just for the current period.

“If Young Master Shen needs it, this trading company can do its best to purchase it for Young Master Shen,” Manager Yi said quickly, seeing Shen Xing’s frown.

In his eyes, Shen Xing’s importance had increased significantly.

He was even extremely grateful for his president’s decision.

The mere fact that he had a method to “quickly learn Divine Intent Inheritances” was enough to make any force in the entire Wu Region go wild.

The Spring Rain Trading Company had finally managed to become the force closest to Young Master Shen and naturally had to do everything possible to maintain this relationship.

“But that takes time,” Shen Xing shook his head, looking dissatisfied. He glanced at him and said directly, “This young master did not intentionally come to the Wu Region but accidentally ended up here. I am indeed lacking in pills, but I cannot delay my cultivation under any circumstances.”

When these words were spoken, not only Manager Yi but also the others were suddenly enlightened.

In fact, they had already guessed this.

Looking at all of Young Master Shen’s actions since his appearance, it was clear that he lacked pills.

When he first appeared in Clearwater City, he even disguised himself as an ordinary martial artist to buy pills.

These were things that their investigations couldn’t hide.

Moreover, as a prodigy with such a terrifying background, he didn’t even have a single attendant by his side. This alone was enough to make people’s imaginations run wild.

Now that Shen Xing had directly admitted that he had accidentally ended up here, everything had an explanation.

He probably brought that flying puppet and some treasures with him, and when he was traversing the endless forest, an accident occurred.

“If the young master needs Internal Breath Pills, Bright Moon Tower should be able to help,” Cao Qiyun suddenly said. “There is also a second-grade alchemist in Bright Moon Tower who can refine Internal Breath Pills.”

“That’s right, that’s right,” Manager Yi nodded repeatedly. “When we have a need, we often buy pills from Bright Moon Tower.”

“How long will it take?” Shen Xing’s expression softened slightly. Since he had already given a reasonable explanation for his lack of pills, he said directly, “For a pill of this level, I need at least two pills a day for my cultivation to barely suffice.”

Suddenly, everyone’s pupils contracted.

Two pills a day?

This was a high-grade, second-grade pill!

Especially Manager Yi and the several Innate Realm experts, their mouths were slightly agape.

Even for them, one Internal Breath Pill was enough for at least ten days of closed-door cultivation!

Even though they had already been sufficiently shocked, this kind of foundation was still too terrifying. No wonder Young Master Shen needed so many Marrow Transformation Pills before. He probably ate those pills like candy for them to have any effect.

“Young Master Shen, this…” Manager Yi forced a smile, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He seemed to be asking for help as he looked at Cao Qiyun.

Cao Qiyun’s forehead was also constantly sweating.

On the one hand, she was shocked. On the other hand, it was difficult to meet such an urgent need in terms of time.

Pills like this were only available at the headquarters of Bright Moon Tower, which was in Bright Moon City. Even if an Innate Realm expert rushed there, it would take more than ten days to travel from here!

The existing pills were simply not enough for the young master’s use!

“Young Master, my Wen Family can provide an Innate-level flying demon beast. Although it can only depart from the Wen Family, it can make a round trip in at most six days,” Wen Xuan, who was dressed like a scholar, said respectfully.

Seeing this, Qu Li also spoke up, “Young Master, my Red Cloud Gang should also have some stock of this Internal Breath Pill. I will send a message immediately and have the Innate Realm experts in the gang rush to deliver them.”

Shen Xing nodded slightly.

See, the benefits of recruiting attendants were already showing.

Currently, the most valuable thing about these attendants to him was the forces behind them, not themselves.

However, Shen Xing calculated and shook his head again.

“The time is still not enough,” he continued without waiting for their expressions to change. “However, this young master does have a flying treasure that can travel ten thousand miles a day with people. Qiyun, you can directly ride this treasure to several places to bring back the pills. Oh, and don’t forget to bring some items for exchange.”

What he was talking about was naturally not the warplane. The speed of the warplane far exceeded ten thousand miles a day.

When he returned to the home planet from the moon, he also bought two high-quality flying vehicles and put one into the shuttle space. Now that he was so rich, he couldn’t always squeeze into public transportation.

It was also just right to take it out now as a means of transportation in the Wu Region.

And his casual words once again shocked these people.

Ten thousand miles a day!?

Innate-level flying demon beasts were already the fastest mode of transportation in this world. Only those top forces with Grandmasters could tame such demon beasts.

But even so, it was impossible to travel ten thousand miles a day!

Manager Yi even thought of a possibility and asked with some excitement, “May I ask, Young Master Shen, is this the treasure that brought you to our Wu Region? Is it usable now?”

In his opinion, such a treasure might really have the opportunity to traverse the endless forest and leave the Wu Region!

However, Shen Xing glanced at him and chuckled softly, “Naturally not. The Outer Region is not just one place. The distance to my family is beyond your imagination.”

◈◈◈

He would leave the Wu Region sooner or later to go to other places in this world.

It was better to lay the groundwork now.

So that when he left with his subordinates, these people wouldn’t think he was taking them to his home.

And what Shen Xing said was actually true. The distance between the Human Federation and this world was indeed beyond imagination.

When these words came out, the others were speechless but also filled with longing.

Especially Cao Qiyun and the other three.

They decisively followed Shen Xing from the beginning, not for “quickly learning Divine Intent Inheritances,” but to be able to leave the Wu Region and go to a broader sky.

And the closer they got to Shen Xing, the more they could faintly see an incomparably magical and powerful force from his every move and thought.

It could only be said that some common things in the Human Federation were beyond the imagination of the people in this world.

“However, the demand for this kind of pill is also quite large,” Shen Xing spoke again, this time looking directly at Cao Qiyun. “Right now, two pills a day are barely enough, but after a few more days of cultivation, I will need three, four, or even more pills a day. I may need more than two hundred pills for the entire Organ Tempering Stage. How many can your Bright Moon Tower provide?”

“Two hundred pills…” Cao Qiyun’s mouth twitched slightly, and her beautiful face, which was usually cold and aloof, also showed a look of being at a loss for words.

Was this an Outer Region prodigy?

How could one person’s consumption during the Body Tempering Stage be so terrifying?

Two hundred pills, an Innate Realm expert could use them continuously for several years without running out!

“This, we need the alchemists to hurry up and refine pills. Medicinal herbs are one aspect. On the other hand, relying solely on my Bright Moon Tower’s alchemist, I’m afraid it won’t be enough to meet the young master’s needs,” Cao Qiyun said truthfully, although helplessly.

“A mere second-grade pill, why is it so troublesome?” Shen Xing frowned again.

A mere second-grade pill?

Listen to that!

Not to mention Cao Qiyun and the others in the Body Tempering Stage, even Manager Yi and the other Innate Realm experts twitched the corners of their eyes.

This was something that was usually sent directly to auctions!

Even for them, being able to take one pill a month was considered having ample resources!

However, no matter what they thought, Shen Xing still had to solve the problem of resources.

One of the biggest helps of the other world to him was these graded pills that were difficult to find in the Human Federation. The special effects contained in them, coupled with the auxiliary equipment of the Human Federation, could bring about such astonishing cultivation efficiency.

He had to find a way to get them no matter what.

Shen Xing also sighed in his heart, “It seems that after the Innate Realm, I have to consider leaving the Wu Region.”

He estimated that when he reached the Innate Realm, he would need third-grade pills.

In this place, Wu Region, there wasn’t even a single third-grade alchemist.

It really couldn’t keep up with the development of his strength.

However, there was still a way to solve the problem for now.

“If one alchemist is not enough, then find more,” Shen Xing said in a deep voice. “If the medicinal herbs from one place are not enough, then find more places!”

“This…” Manager Yi seemed to have heard the determination in Shen Xing’s words and explained with some difficulty, “Young Master Shen, although the status of a second-grade alchemist is not as high as that of a second-grade artifact refiner, it is still extraordinary. Let alone an alchemist who can refine high-grade, second-grade pills like the Internal Breath Pill. Even a Grandmaster would treat them with courtesy. If the young master wants to invite many… I’m afraid it will take a lot of effort. After all, most alchemists have affiliations.”

He was very subtle.

But the meaning in his words was still conveyed.

It was to take out more things in exchange, especially since he had shown more methods. Perhaps those Grandmasters would put forward more demands.

This time, even Cao Qiyun and the others were silent.

They all had Grandmasters behind them, and their choice to follow Shen Xing was also acquiesced to, and even supported, by the Grandmasters.

But to put it bluntly, the purpose of the Grandmasters behind them doing this was naturally for their own benefit.

Now that Shen Xing had a need, how could those high and mighty Grandmasters who dominated the Wu Region not seize this opportunity?

Asking for a sky-high price was inevitable.

Especially since Shen Xing had accidentally ended up here alone. This information had already been confirmed by Shen Xing himself.

Without powerful attendants to follow, he might not even have the ability to contact his family.

Thinking of this, Cao Qiyun and the others couldn’t help but feel a chill.

“Young Master,” Cao Qiyun couldn’t help but say, “This matter still needs to be handled with caution.”

“That’s right,” Jiang Yan, who had been silent, also spoke, with a hint of urgency in her tone. “Young Master must not make demands rashly.”

Her Spring Rain Trading Company was undoubtedly the force most firmly on Shen Xing’s side.

But the Spring Rain Trading Company only had a second-grade artifact refiner, not a Grandmaster-level expert!
