The Master Of Spirit Plants

Chapter 382



Chapter 382

The reward from Ice Palace was so generous that the Ice Marrow Grass was sold out in many shops in Sky City. He would not be suspected for buying a few plants.

“You like to keep yourself busy,” said Qiu Yun lazily.

“Mr. Qiu, aren’t you interested?” asked Xiao Jinting.

Chui Yun nodded and said sincerely, “I’m interested, but I’m not good at alchemy.”

Xiao Jinting sighed with feigned displeasure and said, “It was dishonest of the salesgirl in the shop to sell me the grass of less than five hundred years. Perhaps Ice Marrow Grass of seven or eight thousand years would work.”

“Seven or eight thousand years? Impossible. There is no such thing. The best Ice Marrow Grass available that I’ve heard of is five thousand years. In fact, this grass can’t make Ice Marrow Grass, no matter how old it is,” said Qiu Yun firmly.

Xiao Jinting asked in confusion, “Why?”

“Ice Marrow Grass will change after it turns ten thousand years. It will turn into Ice Marrow Jade Grass, which is the real material for making Ice Marrow Pill. The spiritual Qi of our world has changed significantly, and we can’t even find Ice Marrow Grass of two thousand years, let alone ten thousand years.”

“Do you mean that Ice Palace is wasting time?” asked Xiao Jinting.

“Not necessarily. Although no one can refine Ice Marrow Pills due to the lack of materials, there might be some pills left in one of the secret realms,” said Qiu Yun.

“It is likely,” Xiao Jinting said lightly.

He thought Qiu Yun was too optimistic. Even though the pills could be preserved for a long time, many pills would lose their efficacy after tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years. Even if there was an Ice Marrow Pill, it would be useless.

“Mr. Qiu, what are you up to these days?” asked Xiao Jinting.

“I’m busy buying pills,” said Qiu Yun casually.

Xiao Jinting asked curiously, “Buying pills? What kind of pills?”

“A few days ago, an alchemist sold pills at a low price through the transmission box, and I managed to buy a few. Later, I sold them at higher price and earned some money,” said Chui Yun smugly.

Xiao Jinting was speechless. Was Qiu Yun talking about him?

Looking at the complacent face of Qiu Yun, Xiao Jinting felt that he had made a lot of money.

“How many pills did you buy?” Xiao Jinting asked.

“Three. It’s a pity that the alchemist is not selling any pills recently,” said Qiu Yun ruefully.

Xiao Jinting was lost for words.

Gu Yun looked at Xiao Jinting and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. I envy you. I’ve also heard of that alchemist, who sold around forty pills in total. I heard that many Nascent Souls were waiting in front of their transmission boxes, but in vain.”

Qiu Yun nodded, “I was lucky. It’s a pity that I didn’t have enough spiritual stones. Otherwise, I could have bought more. Now I am wealthier, but the alchemist doesn’t sell any pills. What a pity.”

Xiao Jinting smiled and consoled him, “Be content with what you have, Mr. Qiu. Don’t let it bother you too much…”

Gu Yun nodded, “You’re right.”

He showed his palm, on which a fiery-red pill appeared. “This is Dragon Flame Pill, which is good for Xiaofan. I’ll sell it to you at the price of twenty thousand medium spiritual stones. What do you say?”

Xiao Jinting rolled his eyes. Qiu Yun had the nerve to offer such a high price. He remembered having sold this pill at the price of five thousand medium spiritual stones. It’s cunning of Qiu Yun to quadruple the price.

“I’m not overcharging you. The main materials to refine Dragon Flame Pill cost three thousand medium spiritual stones. It takes at least five thousand medium spiritual stones to hire an alchemist, who doesn’t guarantee the success.”

“Generally speaking, the success rate of alchemists is thirty percent. If you fail, you are unlucky. The rule in the alchemy world states that alchemists don’t pay for the loss, and they need to be paid at least two thousand medium spiritual stones,” Qiu Yun explained sincerely.

Xiao Jinting widened his eyes and asked, “Are alchemists so arrogant?”

Chui Yun nodded, “Yes, to be sure. Good alchemists are very arrogant. Don’t tell me that you don’t know!”

Xiao Jinting smiled awkwardly, “I’m ignorant…”

“Do you want this pill or not? Twenty thousand spirit stones is an internal price. I offer you this because we know each other.”

Xiao Jinting said sincerely, “Mr. Qiu, I don’t have so many spiritual stones.”

Xiao Jinting thought to himself, “If I need this pill, I will refine it myself. I’m not out of my mind. I don’t spend twenty thousand spiritual stones on it after I sold it at five thousand. Besides, if I buy this pill, Mu Yun might be upset. Lastly, Qiu Yun might not really want to sell it.”

Gu Yun glanced at Xiao Jinting and said, “You’re not sincere, Mr. Xiao.”

Xiao Jinting smiled bitterly and spread out his hands, “Mr. Qiu, I don’t have so many spiritual stones. Besides, this pill is for Nascent Souls, and Xiaofan can’t use it at all. I think the pill is good for Mr. Mu.”

Qiu Yun put away the pill and snorted softly.

Looking at Qiu Yun’s grumpy face, Xiao Jinting felt that he was not easy to deal with. He thought it was weird of Mu Yun to fall for someone like Qiu Yun.
