Chapter 1051

“May I ask what you’re looking for?”

Long Chen had just entered when a maiden walked over and courteously spoke to him . She was an outer sect disciple who was working here for points, so her att.i.tude was naturally very good .

“I want to buy a few precious medicinal ingredients,” said Long Chen, getting straight to the point .

The maiden directly handed Long Chen a thick book . “All the precious medicinal ingredients’ names, ages, prices, and identification numbers are here . You can go through it and then tell me the identification numbers . I’ll get them from the storage room . ”

“Alright, many thanks . ”

Long Chen opened the thick book . He skipped to the seventh tier medicinal ingredients and began browsing .

“Nine Yang Heavenly Star Gra.s.s, Qilin Blood Spirit Fungus, Flying Star Anise, Dragon Gall Bitter Fruit…”

Long Chen named off over eighty ingredients, requiring one of each, causing the maiden to jump .

“Senior apprentice-brother, these are main ingredients for alchemy, and they’re incredibly expensive . It will require a lot of points,” she warned . Each one of these ingredients required thousands of points, and some over ten thousand .

“It’s fine . Can you calculate how many points it will take?” asked Long Chen . These points weren’t important . As long as he could get these ingredients, everything else would be fine .

“In total… 278500 points,” she said . She had worked here for several years, and she had never seen someone pay so much .

“That’s fine . Can you gather them for me? I still have plenty of points . ” Long Chen smiled, but inside, his heart was dripping blood . That amount was no joke .

“Alright, please wait a moment . ”

She hurriedly left, leaving behind another attendant to look after Long Chen . After all, a rich customer like him had to be properly looked after .

An incense stick’s worth of time later, she returned with a tray . There was an elegant jade case resting on it .

The jade case possessed its own s.p.a.ce, and the medicinal ingredients were sealed within . She handed the medicinal ingredients over one by one to Long Chen for his inspection .

Once Long Chen confirmed that all these medicinal ingredients were the right one and in good condition, Long Chen took out a crystal card . That was the Dragonblood Legion’s crystal card, and the faction’s points were all within it .

“Please get it over quickly . That way, the pain in my heart will go by faster . ” Long Chen bitterly smiled . Handing over the crystal card, he couldn’t contain his distress .

The maiden smiled and received it . After setting the number of points to be deducted, she was just about to activate it .

“Wait a moment!”

Suddenly, a middle-aged man walked in . He icily stared at Long Chen, and then looking at the medicinal ingredients on the table, he frowned . “These medicinal ingredients were already reserved by others . When are you going to learn not to be so negligent?”

The maiden was startled, hastily saying, “I already checked everything carefully . No one-”

“Shut up . You’ve even learned to talk back? Go back to the storehouse and check the lists,” he shouted coldly .

She reddened and ran away . Only then did the middle-aged man put on a businessman-like expression . He turned to Long Chen and said, “I’m very sorry, but these medicinal ingredients were reserved by others and can’t be sold . But if you’re really set on this, it’s not impossible . How about this? As long as you can make up for that lost business, I’ll still sell you these medicinal ingredients . As for the price, let’s just set it as double . ”

He smiled amicably at Long Chen, but his eyes were full of disdain and mocking .

“Do you know? An idiot like you would have long since died if this wasn’t the Xuantian Dao Sect . I suppose this Ten Thousand Pill Hall is the property of the Alchemy Pavilion, and you’re from the Alchemy Pavilion? Are you intentionally making things hard on me?” demanded Long Chen .

The middle-aged man looked around and saw there was no one else around before his mouth twisted into a cold smile . “So what? I hear you have a few alchemy arts that make you so arrogant you look down on everyone else . You even dared to beat one of my Alchemy Pavilion’s teachers . And I hear you’re quite wild, to the point that you even dare to beat up law enforcers in the outer sect . Now I want to see how you act wild in front of me . Will you be cheated, or scram?”

“Don’t tell me those criminal b.a.s.t.a.r.ds in the outer sect who exploit the poor are your stooges . ” Long Chen suddenly narrowed his eyes .

“Smart . But do you think it makes you very special? In reality, your brashness will be the end of you . You’ll be unable to move an inch in the Xuantian Dao Sect . For example, right now you are helpless to do anything . So either buy it, or scram . Up to you,” said the middle-aged man indifferently .

“What’s your name?” asked Long Chen .

“What? You want to get revenge? Hahaha, then I’ll wait for you . Remember, my name is Luo Bo . If you have that ability, then come at me whenever you want,” sneered Luo Bo .

Long Chen smiled . “Luo Bo? Good, that’s fine . I’ll admit defeat today . I’ll buy it, and I hope you don’t regret today . ”
