Divine War Pill Emperor

"Heavens, this is unbelievable."

"Our Jiang Family suddenly has three Alchemists."

"Alchemist Jiang Xuan, Alchemist Jiang Ling, and Young Master Jiang Chen..."

Everyone felt their scalps tingle. In such a short time, three Alchemists had appeared in the Jiang Family.

What was Ling Xuan in comparison? He was less than nothing now.

The Jiang Family no longer needed to hire any other Alchemists.

Jiang Han stared at Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling.

"How did you two do it?"

"A month ago, you didn’t know anything about Alchemy."

When Ling Xuan left, the Jiang Family had specifically summoned Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling to ask them, and both of them knew nothing of Alchemy.

Now, after just one month, they had miraculously become Alchemists.

The Elixirs they refined were even of decent quality.

Good enough to match Ling Xuan.

Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling both turned to look at Jiang Chen.

"Patriarch, this is all thanks to Young Master Jiang Chen."

"For the past month, we’ve been following Young Master Jiang Chen. He guided us in Alchemy, and in just one month, we learned how to do it."

The excitement and thrill on their faces were impossible to hide.

After all, they had followed Ling Xuan for two years and learned nothing.

But after just one month with Jiang Chen, they could already refine Elixirs on their own.

The difference was immense.

Jiang Han once again looked at his son with a strange expression.

His mouth felt a little dry as he finally said, "Chen’er, you’ve really given me a huge surprise."

Then, he clapped his son firmly on the shoulder.

He didn’t say anything more. There were many things he now understood instantly.

The other family members also stood with their mouths agape.

They stared at Jiang Chen as if they had seen a ghost.

To train two Alchemists in a single month... such an ability was far, far too powerful.

Jiang Chen saw the happiness on his family members’ faces.

Their heartfelt excitement.

He pointed at Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling.

He announced to the crowd, "From now on, the Jiang Family’s Elixirs will be refined by Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling."

"They are more than capable of handling this great responsibility."

BOOM!

The minds of the Jiang Family members reeled.

Now, even if Jiang Chen didn’t perform Alchemy, the Jiang Family would remain stable. Moreover, they had two Alchemists.

The family members had nothing more to say.

Jiang Han laughed heartily. "Good, good! The rise of our Jiang Family is at hand."

"Jiang Xuan, Jiang Ling, from now on, you will be the Alchemists of our Jiang Family. We will provide you with the best possible conditions."

"You two are the future and hope of our Jiang Family."

Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling were both energized and deeply moved.

Before, they had no status whatsoever in the Jiang Family.

But now, Jiang Chen had personally elevated them to a position of honor.

THUD!

THUD!

In front of all their family members, Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling both knelt before Jiang Chen.

"Thank you, Young Master, for your guidance."

"We will not fail our mission. We will strengthen our Jiang Family."

The two of them thanked Jiang Chen with great sincerity.

Jiang Chen laughed and helped them to their feet.

"We’re all Jiang Family. No need for such words."

Jiang Chen had smoothly passed the burden on to Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling.

The Jiang Family was completely immersed in joy.

Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling became pivotal figures in the Jiang Family, their status and identity elevated significantly.

None of this was particularly important to Jiang Chen. He found some time to slip away from the Jiang Family estate and appeared in the Alchemy Materials market in Hanwu City.

He wasn’t just strolling around; he was like a hunter, searching for Alchemy Materials.

Others could relax, but he could not.

As an Alchemist, he had to constantly look for Alchemy Materials he needed now or might need in the future, just in case.

Hanwu City might not be large, but finding a rare material here would still be a huge gain.

However, after looking around for a while, Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.

’This treasure-hunting approach really isn’t effective,’ he thought.

He wasn’t disappointed. After all, finding something this way was a matter of pure coincidence.

It was great if he found something, but perfectly normal if he didn’t.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Jiang Chen noticed a few street stalls set up.

Generally speaking, there was nothing worth investigating at stalls like these.

But Jiang Chen was still willing to spend some time taking a look.

He walked past two stalls and finally stopped at the third.

"Hey, young man! Don’t just walk on by!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"I’ve got rare materials here, guaranteed to satisfy you."

The stall owner grabbed a yellowish-brown plant from his display.

He began his spiel with practiced ease.

"Look here, young man. This is a Ten Thousand Years’ Falling Grass. It can be yours for just one hundred Yuan Crystals."

The stall owner saw Jiang Chen’s fine clothes and clearly judged him to be from a wealthy family.

The moment he saw what looked like a big fish, a thought sparked in his mind, and he began his swindle.

He knew very well that this type of person was the easiest to fool.

Jiang Chen crouched down in front of the stall. In truth, he had noticed a rather special material.

It was fiery red and emitted a faint smell of sulfur.

However, he didn’t immediately pay attention to the fiery red material.

Instead, he looked at the stall owner with the air of a spoiled rich kid.

He also pretended to be completely clueless about the market.

His eyes widened as he asked in feigned astonishment, "Are you serious?"

"This is really a Ten Thousand Years’ Falling Grass, and it only costs one hundred Yuan Crystals?"

’A Ten Thousand Years’ Falling Grass? What a joke. You couldn’t buy one for less than tens of thousands of Yuan Crystals. This stall owner is just spouting nonsense. Daring to claim it’s real for a mere one hundred Yuan Crystals. It would be one thing if he were tricking a novice, but he’s trying to swindle me, someone at the Pill Emperor Level. He’s practically asking for humiliation.’

But Jiang Chen was also acting. His real target was the fiery red material.

He had recognized it at a glance: Gunpowder Grass.

This was a relatively rare material.

The most amazing thing about it was that Gunpowder Grass could be used to refine the Blazing Pill. The Blazing Pill was a type of Elixir, but it wasn’t used for healing or even for raising one’s Cultivation.

It was an Elixir used for killing.

The Blazing Pill was, at minimum, a Second-Grade Elixir.

And when a Blazing Pill exploded, it was powerful enough to kill a Martial Master Level expert.

Jiang Chen was secretly astonished. ’To actually run into Gunpowder Grass here is completely unexpected.’

Seeing Jiang Chen’s foolish appearance, the owner was secretly delighted.

’The big fish has taken the bait.’

He said with a serious expression, "Of course! All the materials I have here are rare treasures."

"Go on, ask around the streets and alleys about my, Yuan Ming’s, reputation. Everyone has good things to say."

"Young man, for one hundred Yuan Crystals, you’d be getting a steal."

Meanwhile, a few of the nearby stall owners looked at Jiang Chen with pity.

"What a shame. Looks like that kid is about to get fleeced by Yuan Ming again."

"Damn it, how did that bastard Yuan Ming get so lucky? He caught himself a fat chicken."

"Hey, doesn’t that look like the Jiang Family’s good-for-nothing young master? Why is he suddenly interested in Alchemy Materials?"

"Yeah, it really is him. But he’s just a spendthrift."

Quite a few people recognized the famous Young Master Jiang Chen.

But not for any good reason.

Especially after the story of his Martial Vein being stolen spread, Jiang Chen’s reputation as a good-for-nothing was known by all.

When Yuan Ming heard what the others were saying, he shot them a fierce glare.

He was afraid they would ruin his good fortune.

"Young man, if you want to buy it, you should do it now. An opportunity like this won’t come again."

Trying to coax Jiang Chen into a deal, the owner launched into a long-winded, jabbering speech about how great his wares were.
