Ch 146: The pain from Xiao Heizi!
“Xiaoxue, where did these Immortal Stones come from?” Xu Qingshan looked suspicious, his heart filled with uncertainty.
He even suspected that Murong Yinxue had picked them up from the street.
He had been in the Alchemist Guild in Wangxu City for so many years, and he had never seen anyone make such a large transaction of Immortal Stones at once!
Murong Yinxue understood Xu Qingshan’s current loss of composure. After carefully clarifying her thoughts, she began to speak clearly about what had happened.
“That’s basically it. That senior wanted Teacher to use special means to hide this transaction. He doesn’t want to attract too much attention. If this is successful, he will continue to trade with us in the future!”
Murong Yinxue initially didn’t understand the reason, and didn’t quite understand why this person wanted to hide their identity, until just now, she understood.
If this matter were to spread, how many people would be eyeing the entire Alchemist Guild?
“It’s him! Thirty million Immortal Stones at that time, now it has increased to one hundred million!” Xu Qingshan’s breathing quickened slightly. He had refined Immortal Grade 8 pills for many years, and he still couldn’t save so many Immortal Stones.
What exactly is this person’s background?!
He pondered over Murong Yinxue’s words and gradually understood the person’s request. Those who can control such wealth naturally have considerable strength, and such actions are probably to avoid attracting too much attention.
“A two-day deadline, one hundred million Immortal Stones, this is a bit difficult.” Xu Qingshan even more than Murong Yinxue wanted to secure this transaction, but even though he was the Guild Master of the Alchemist Guild, he still felt it was a bit difficult.
Mainly because the amount of Immortal Stones was too large, and also, in recent years, a factor he couldn’t control had appeared in Wangxu City.
That is the Wang Family!
In the past, the Alchemist Guild’s situation was that he had the final say, and no one dared to question him.
That’s not the case anymore.
The Ninth-Rank Immortal Alchemist of the Wang Family has often arranged people to join the guild in recent years. Now, there are quite a few people from the Wang Family in this Alchemist Guild. It is indeed difficult for him to hide a transaction of one hundred million without their knowledge.
“Teacher, isn’t there any other way?” Murong Yinxue’s brow furrowed with worry.
“Let me think carefully!” Xu Qingshan closed his eyes, frowning in thought.
If it were only a transaction of fifty million Immortal Stones, he could naturally do it, but for the other fifty million Immortal Stones, he had to think of a better way to obtain the Immortal Medicine without attracting the attention of the Wang Family.
Even if the Wang Family discovered something amiss, they wouldn’t find any other problems and thus wouldn’t investigate further.
“Alright, this is the only way.” Xu Qingshan gritted his teeth and made a decision.
He would take the risk himself!
“Teacher, you have a way?”
“Yes, I will draw all the attention to myself in this transaction, and I will be in charge of the rest. Just wait a day, and I will give you the Immortal Medicine then.”
Xu Qingshan took a deep breath, his gaze firm.
Secure this transaction first, let that mysterious person recognize their efficiency, and then worry about the rest later!
Murong Yinxue nodded, relying on Xu Qingshan.
After sending Murong Yinxue away, Xu Qingshan took out a Voice Transmission Jade Slip and sent a voice transmission to an old friend.
“Old friend, do me a favor. Tell everyone that I, Xu Qingshan, have decided to compete for the position at Headquarters! Even if it means spending all my wealth, I must win!”
There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by a puzzled voice: “Are you sure? Don’t be foolish. Your Pill Dao skills are indeed sufficient, but your score isn’t!”
“Just listen to me, when I have free time, I’ll go over there and treat you to a drink!” Xu Qingshan laughed.
“I don’t understand why you’re doing this, but since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll listen to you.”
“Okay, thank you!”
“Between you and me, there’s no need for thanks.”
After ending the voice transmission, Xu Qingshan ostentatiously instructed his guild subordinates to mobilize eighty million Immortal Stones worth of Immortal Medicine and send it to his mansion.
As for the remaining twenty million Immortal Stones worth of Immortal Medicine, his family had it, and the total should be enough to reach one hundred million.
……
After Lu Qing’an left the Alchemist Guild, he only had one thing to do, so he flew directly towards Liuguang Hall.
He and Zhen Yongfu successfully met up and then entered a private room on the tenth floor of Liuguang Hall.
This private room can be used for one month.
The time flow rate inside is ten times that of the outside, adding up to almost a full year of cultivation time.
“Good, before cultivation, I need to interrogate those Demon Race members.”
Lu Qing’an sat cross-legged in the empty cultivation space and took out the Prison Immortal Tower.
His consciousness entered the Prison Immortal Tower, appearing in front of a Saint Spirit Realm Demon Race member in the first instance.
After eating his Healing Pill, this Saint Spirit Realm Demon Race member had saved its life.
But although its life was saved, after entering the Prison Immortal Tower, it experienced a round of torture that made life unbearable.
Now the whole person is extremely weak, lying on the ground, its rear end raised high.
It looked like the most vulnerable part of its body had undergone inhumane cruelty.
Lu Qing’an curled his lips and said, “Is the torture enough? Do you need another round?”
When this Saint Spirit Realm Demon Race member saw Lu Qing’an, the moment before it was still looking doubtful about life, the next moment it roared ferociously: “Human ant! If you have the guts, kill this Demon Lord!!! Winning with Treasure Self-Detonation, what kind of hero are you?!?”
Lu Qing’an liked these guys’ unruly and defiant attitude. A strange smile appeared on his lips: “Then you will experience this torture again and again in this place for the rest of your life. Goodbye.”
Having said that, Lu Qing’an disappeared on the spot without waiting for the Demon Race member to say any more harsh words, reappearing before another Saint Spirit Realm Demon Race member.
He admired their resilience, so he continued to subject them to torture, making them experience the torture of the first to tenth floors of the Prison Immortal Tower again.
As for the other Liuli Realm Demon Race members, he also met them one by one.
The results were as he had guessed.
The stronger the Demon Race member, the more resilient they were. Therefore, he decided to spend time with these Demon Race members.
Anyway, he planned to cultivate for almost a year, he had plenty of time.
He put away the Prison Immortal Tower, took out a Xuanling Pill and swallowed it, then began to cultivate. He strived to quickly break through to the Xuji Realm cultivation level.
Once he reaches the Xuji Realm cultivation level, he will be able to become a Grade 6 Immortal Alchemist.
“I’ll also do some simple preparation for the Alchemy Competition held by the Danxian Sect half a year later. Anyway, there’s plenty of time in this Liuguang Hall.”
A day passed quietly.
At this time, Zhen Yongfu sent him a voice transmission, saying that Murong Yinxue had given him a storage ring filled with Immortal Medicine.
Lu Qing’an came to the door of the next room and took a storage ring from Zhen Yongfu.
“Did she say anything?” Lu Qing’an asked.
Zhen Yongfu said, “Senior Martial Sister said that everything was done as An Ge instructed.”
Lu Qing’an nodded in satisfaction, then returned to his own private room and appeared in front of the Black Dragon.
The Black Dragon, which had rested for a night, had once again started burning Immortal Medicine. When Lu Qing’an was not present, it looked listless; even one of its heads wasn’t breathing fire.
It was clearly slacking off.
But after Lu Qing’an appeared, it was startled and changed its appearance dramatically, breathing fire and shouting, “Immortal Medicine! All of you turn to ashes for Dragon Lord!!!”
Lu Qing’an looked at the Black Dragon with disdain, “Xiao Heizi, quite spirited.”
“Of course! Don’t worry, it won’t take long, I’ll burn these tens of millions of Immortal Medicine soon!” The Black Dragon laughed heartily, looking extremely enthusiastic about its work.
“I’m very pleased with your self-awareness.” Lu Qing’an patted the Black Dragon’s body and said with a smile.
“Of course! You don’t have to worry about my physical condition, Little Blackie. No matter how much Immortal Medicine there is, I can burn it all for you!” The Black Dragon laughed.
In its opinion, Lu Qing’an had just given it thirty million Immortal Stones worth of Immortal Medicine at once, and he shouldn’t be sending any more in a short time, so it felt that it was necessary to put on a show.
“You’re really great. Since that’s the case, then I won’t be polite. Here’s the Immortal Medicine.” Lu Qing’an laughed happily.
It was as if he had seen his child finally grow up and had the air of being able to stand on its own.
The Black Dragon was stunned, then probed its perception into the storage ring that Lu Qing’an had given it.
It was fine not to look, but after looking, it sat down on its rear end.
