Chapter 23: Chapter 23: 4.8 Million Gold Coins!
Editor: Exodus Tales
“Reporting to the Family Head, Su Han has regained his ability to cultivate, and has even opened eight Dragon Veins…” The man’s body trembled, but he still spoke.
“So what if he has opened eight Dragon Veins?!”
Lin Chengsong furiously said, “With so many of you, none could protect Heng’er? How could he, a mere Dragon Vein Realm cultivator, kill Heng’er right in front of you, the Dragon Blood Realm cultivators?!”
“He is too strong.”
Speaking of Su Han, this person still had some shock in his eyes, “Though Su Han is only in the Dragon Vein Realm, he possesses several powerful Dragon Techniques. Even Guest Liu Yong had one of his hands disabled by him.”
Guest Liu Yong, was that burly man who confronted Su Han, whose palm was torn apart by Bai Hu.
“Since Heng’er is dead, you might as well accompany him in death!”
With a wave of Lin Chengsong’s palm, powerful Dragon Qi burst forth, brutally striking the chest of the attendant.
“Bang!”
This attendant was merely at the early stage of the Dragon Blood Realm and couldn’t defend himself at all. The moment he was hit, his body exploded into pieces.
The others all stood around, allowing the blood to spatter on them, yet not daring to breathe a word.
“Inform the Chen Family, besiege the Su Family!”
In just a few words, one could feel endless murderous intent and chilling coldness.
…
Meanwhile, at the Chen Family.
“Big brother, you must avenge me!”
Chen Yi cried out to a young man in front of him, “That beast Su Han not only killed our Chen Family’s Huangfeng Guest Minister but also forced me to kneel before him. If we just let this go, it won’t matter much to me, Chen Yi, but if word gets out, where will our Chen Family’s dignity lie?!”
“Wasn’t Su Han unable to cultivate anymore?” the young man frowned.
He was Chen Yi’s elder brother, the most dazzling genius of the Chen Family, Chen Feng!
“Who knew that beast could suddenly cultivate again, and he even opened eight Dragon Veins!” Chen Yi said through gritted teeth.
“Eight Dragon Veins? Eight Dragon Veins killed a mid-stage Dragon Blood Realm expert?” Chen Feng’s frown deepened.
“I don’t care, big brother, you must help me with this!”
“Don’t worry, the Lin Family won’t let this go either. Anyone who dares to force my brother, Chen Feng, to kneel, Su Han has lived long enough!” Chen Feng’s eyes flashed with a cold light, “But let’s wait a bit, father is in seclusion and should be out in a few days. Once he leaves, his strength will surely have increased, and by then, even if the Su Family expends all their resources, they can’t escape from our palms!”
“Good, let that bastard live a few more days!” Chen Yi said ferociously.
…
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
In the room, Su Han looked at the black long knife in his hand and muttered, “Though it’s far inferior to the Demon God Blade, given the current conditions, it’s quite decent and should be able to withstand the power of ‘Destruction First Blade’.”
Next to Su Han, there was a knife sheath.
He inserted the long knife into its sheath and placed it at his waist, then lazily stretched as he rose from the bed.
“Half a month has passed…” Su Han murmured.
Looking around, the room was filled with bottles large and small, at least dozens at first glance.
And in these bottles, all were filled with pills, the lowest grade among them were High-Grade Pills like Ancient Spirit Pills.
Among them were also a few Top-Grade Pills named ‘Blood Pills’, which Su Han planned to save for his breakthrough into the Dragon Blood Realm later.
“Someone come.” Su Han called.
The door opened, and a person immediately walked in from outside—it was Hu Feng.
The Guard of the Su Family had basically become completely loyal to Su Han, especially since Su Han had previously saved the families of Hu Feng and Zhang Hai. Both were now absolutely devoted to Su Han.
“Go inform the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to bring Gold Coins to pick up the pills,” Su Han said indifferently.
“Yes.”
Hu Feng nodded in agreement, while discreetly glancing at the jade bottles around Su Han, his heart overturning seas and rivers, overwhelmed with shock.
“Young Master Su Han, he has actually become an alchemist…”
Hu Feng thought to himself with a sneer, “Su Yunchen and the others still think that being an Inner Sect Disciple from the Cold Cloud Sect is a very esteemed status, but compared to the status of an Alchemist like Young Master Su Han, what does an Inner Sect Disciple count for?”
“These two bottles of pills, one for you and one for Zhang Hai,” Su Han tossed two bottles of pills to him.
“Thank you, Young Master Han!”
Hu Feng was ecstatic inside. These were pills!
To date, he had never tasted what pills were like!
A single low-level pill costs over a thousand Gold Coins, and he earned only a hundred Gold Coins a year serving in the Guard of the Su Family; how could he afford to buy pills?
The bottle of pills Su Han had given him was worth at least ten thousand Gold Coins, equivalent to his remuneration for a hundred years at the Su Family!
Soon, Hu Feng withdrew.
Two hours later, people from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion left with the pills while Su Han’s card had turned into a gold card.
“4.83 million Gold Coins…” Su Han murmured.
The gold card from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was only issued after storing millions of Gold Coins.
Subtracting the previous 150,000 Gold Coins that Su Han had, selling these pills this time had earned him a total of 4.68 million Gold Coins!
This was an exceedingly huge amount; even the Xiao Family’s annual net profit was only about 700,000 Gold Coins, and what Su Han had earned in half a month was equivalent to nearly 7 years of the Xiao Family’s profits.
This showed just how lucrative the profession of an alchemist was.
“Buy some more materials, refine some more pills, then I can buy a storage ring, otherwise it’s always too troublesome.”
In his previous life, Su Han had used “Heavenly Treasures” with space comparable to a world, not just for storing items, but even living beings could be kept inside.
Having gotten used to such treasures, Su Han found it bothersome to carry around a bag.
“Although I’ve already asked Old Li to keep an eye out for storage rings, in a remote place like Yuanshan County, storage rings are still too precious, and even with money, they might not be available.”
“Never mind that for now, I’ll focus on my cultivation,” Su Han said.
The ten bottles of Ancient Spirit Pills he previously had let Su Han open up thirty-two meridians.
In fact, on the Dragon Martial Continent, as long as one opened up more than five Dragon Veins and had beast blood, one could use it to break through to the Dragon Blood Realm.
When the Dragon Martial Continent first appeared, the cultivators used Dragon Blood to break through to the Dragon Blood Realm, as that ensured the greatest strength!
However, as time passed, the number of humans increased and the disparity in their abilities became more pronounced and complex.
Moreover, with the Giant Dragons of Dragon Martial Continent being terrifyingly mighty, obtaining Dragon Blood was extremely difficult.
Without the aid of Dragon Blood, cultivators then settled for beast blood to break through to the Dragon Blood Realm.
The stronger the demon beast, the more precious its blood; naturally, if one could break through to the Dragon Blood Realm using such blood, one’s strength would naturally be much more formidable than others.
There were quite a few in the Dragon Blood Realm who crushed their peers by using high order demon beast blood for their breakthrough.
