Divine War Pill Emperor

Staring at the Elixirs their clansmen had bought from the Jiang Family Elixir Shop.

Ximen Gong, Ling Xuan, and Chen Ran were all completely stunned.

They stood frozen, their eyes glued to the Elixirs before them.

As if they had been struck by lightning.

"How is this possible?"

"Can someone please tell me what in the world is going on?"

Ximen Gong pointed at the Elixirs, looking utterly distraught.

His face was a mask of shock and disbelief.

It was because the Elixirs purchased from the Jiang Family Elixir Shop actually glowed with a silver light, indicating they were of Silver Quality, not the Black Iron Quality Elixirs sold by their Ximen Family.

Of course, the price for these Silver Quality Elixirs was at least ten yuan crystals higher than the Black Iron Level ones.

Each Pill cost ten more yuan crystals than theirs.

If they sold three hundred of these a day, the Jiang Family would make an extra three thousand yuan crystals.

He couldn’t accept this reality.

As Alchemists, Ling Xuan and Chen Ran were also dumbfounded.

They exclaimed in horror.

"Impossible! How could this be?"

"How could the Jiang Family possibly have this kind of Elixir?"

Ling Xuan, in particular, felt his breath catch in his throat.

When he was with the Jiang Family, he had only ever managed to refine Black Iron Quality Elixirs, not a single one of Silver Quality.

It was true that his Alchemy Skill was limited.

Even now that he had become a Second-Grade Alchemist, he still couldn’t refine Silver Quality Elixirs.

And now, the moment he left, the Jiang Family had brought out Silver Quality Elixirs.

According to the reports from the clansmen sent to investigate, the Jiang Family Elixir Shop was selling nothing but these Silver Quality Elixirs.

This caught them completely off guard.

In the end, none of them could make sense of it.

"Let’s go. We have to see this for ourselves."

At that moment, Ling Xuan felt a deep unease.

’Not only is the Jiang Family not going to collapse, but it looks like they’re going to climb even higher.’

He couldn’t accept it at all.

After all, he was the one the Jiang Family had kicked out.

Ximen Gong and Chen Ran also felt that something was wrong.

The three of them immediately headed toward the Jiang Family Elixir Shop to observe the situation.

Seeing how incredibly popular the Jiang Family’s shop was, the three of them were completely dumbstruck.

The Jiang Family’s business was actually better than usual.

It seemed the appearance of the Silver Quality Elixirs had attracted even more Martial Cultivators.

"Did you hear? The Jiang Family Elixir Shop is selling Silver Quality Elixirs."

"Let’s hurry! We should go check it out and buy some Silver Quality Elixirs while we’re at it. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen any."

Several Martial Cultivators hurried past Ximen Gong and his companions, making a beeline for the Jiang Family’s Elixir Shop.

Their anxious and eager expressions revealed their deep desire and strong demand for high-quality Elixirs.

Ximen Gong’s face turned ashen.

"Dammit!"

He slapped his thigh hard.

The situation with the Jiang Family had left his head spinning.

Ling Xuan and Chen Ran both wore expressions of astonishment.

Clearly, they couldn’t understand how there could be another Alchemist in Hanwu City capable of refining Silver Quality Elixirs.

And one who was now working for the Jiang Family, no less.

"Well, well, if it isn’t Patriarch Ximen Gong of the Ximen Family?"

Just then, a voice came from behind the three of them.

The trio jumped in surprise. They had been so focused on the Jiang Family’s Elixir Shop that they hadn’t noticed anyone approaching.

Hearing the voice, they turned around.

And then they froze completely.

Standing behind them were none other than Patriarch Jiang Han and a group from the Jiang Family.

Every one of them was watching the trio with amused expressions on their faces.

After a moment’s stupor, Ximen Gong...

...hastily went on guard against Jiang Han and his men.

"Jiang Han..."

He stared at Jiang Han, his expression grim.

He didn’t know what to say.

But Jiang Han just smiled brightly. "Ximen Gong, you’ve been watching for a while now. What do you think of our Jiang Family’s business?"

Ximen Gong’s face was livid.

’He’s showing off. He’s flaunting the Jiang Family’s business right in my face.’

To be honest, Ximen Gong was jealous.

The Jiang Family’s business today was several times more booming than usual.

One look at the crowd packed around the entrance was enough to tell.

With this kind of popularity, as long as they had enough Elixirs, they could earn several days’ worth of profit in a single day.

He snorted.

"It’s nothing special. What’s there to be so proud of?"

He sounded dismissive, but inside, he was mad with envy.

’The Jiang Family must have stumbled into some incredible dumb luck.’

Jiang Han laughed heartily.

Then he turned to Ling Xuan.

"Why, isn’t this Mr. Ling Xuan?"

"I feel like we’ve met somewhere before."

Jiang Han was feeling incredibly smug. By producing Silver Quality Elixirs, his Jiang Family could immediately seize a larger share of the market, and their popularity was soaring.

And it was all thanks to his son.

He had just been checking on the Elixir Shop when he happened to spot Ximen Gong and the others spying on them.

So he had approached them on purpose.

Seeing Ling Xuan, in particular, filled Jiang Han with rage.

’This man’s actions were too ruthless.’

But now that he no longer needed Ling Xuan, he decided to pretend not to recognize him.

Ling Xuan’s heart twitched, and his expression turned utterly foul.

He had never imagined that after he left, the Jiang Family would become much stronger than when he was there.

’It’s all because they have a powerful Alchemist behind them now.’

He gave a dry laugh. "Patriarch Jiang, you great men are so forgetful. I was your Jiang Family’s Alchemist not long ago."

Jiang Han feigned a sudden realization.

He slapped his forehead.

"Oh, I remember now! I almost forgot about you. You were our Jiang Family’s great hero, weren’t you?"

"Look at you. When you left, you took all of our Jiang Family’s Elixirs with you. Not a single Pill was left behind."

He paused for a moment after saying this.

Ling Xuan’s face burned with embarrassment.

He knew what he had done was too ruthless.

He was even worried that Jiang Han might attack him right then and there; he was no match for the Patriarch.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Han just waved his hand. "Don’t worry, I should be thanking you. Because you left, an even more incredible Alchemist came to our Jiang Family."

"Haha, one who can actually refine Silver Quality Elixirs! Thank heavens for that."

"Ling Xuan, I don’t blame you. You can have those Elixirs you took. Consider it coffin money from us, since the Jiang Family didn’t give you a parting gift when you left."

Ling Xuan looked as if his parents had just died; his face cycled through shades of green, white, and black.

But he couldn’t find a single word to refute Jiang Han.

He could only stand there and take the humiliation.

Whether it was Ximen Gong, Ling Xuan, or Chen Ran, they all felt like they were coughing up blood internally.

They had originally planned to ruin the Jiang Family, and now look. The Jiang Family had made a spectacular comeback.

Their plot had failed.

After that, Jiang Han couldn’t be bothered with the three of them any longer and turned to leave.

"Pah!"

"Disgusting!"

Many from the Jiang Family spat viciously in Ling Xuan’s direction.

Then they departed with extreme arrogance.

Leaving behind the three men with their livid faces, each one seething with rage.

"Dammit, those people from the Jiang Family are too arrogant!"

"Let’s go!"

Furious, Ximen Gong could do nothing but retreat for now.

The Jiang Family had gotten incredibly lucky this time.

The three returned to the Ximen Family, dejected and crestfallen.

"How could the Jiang Family be so lucky? To think they managed to hire such a powerful Alchemist."

"You two, think of something. Can we find a way to poach that Alchemist?"
