Chapter 64 – Silver Moon (2/2)
Regardless of cultivation, from Students to renowned returned prime Warriors, body strength is always the foundation to any type of training. That’s why quencher pills were so sought after.
‘I didn’t think these exist anymore!’ Silver Moon pills were around five times as effective as Fiery Sun Quenchers, and its fabled formula was lost in time; therefore, the pills were thought to be extinct!
While the rare Fiery Sun Quenchers were known to be the best quencher pills available on the market, very, very few powerful families and martial artists were rumoured to have access to the secret formulas for and, stocks of other high-quality pills and potions that were reserved for personal and family use, Silver Moon pills were one such pill.
These Silver Moon pills can easily fetch ten thousand silver each at auction, and by Lin Zi Yan’s visual estimation there were a few hundred of these pills in the room.
This room was worth more than a Big Three family’s wealth that had been accumulated through generations. But their rarity can not really be measured with money as they will ultimately be used for a greater cause than numbers and luxuries.
Lin Zi Yan was from a wealthy background and she didn’t really care about money, but she couldn’t ignore these pills. “Ye Wei I will guard the entrance; meanwhile, you have to collect all these pills!” Not knowing what they were, Ye Wei just stood there shivering in the cold.
“Okay!” Ye Wei nodded, and took out the interspatial bag he had acquired earlier while starting to collecting the pills.
“There are three hundred and eighty pills altogether. I’ll split them up equally.” Ye Wei smiled and handed the pills to Zi Yan. “Here is your one hundred and ninety pills.”
Ye Wei was not sure what these pills were but judging from Lin Zi Yan’s facial expression he could guess that they were valuable, ‘If it’s valuable I should share it with her! I wouldn’t be here if she didn’t lead the way.’
“Little Wei, about the portion you just gave me… Do you know how much these pills are worth? Lin Zi Yan spoke to Ye Wei’s innocent smiling face.
“How much are they worth? What has that got to do with anything?” Ye Wei shrugged and asked casually. ‘If it wasn’t for you, Zi Yan, I wouldn’t have become Master Yi’s apprentice and my family would not even exist today. Whatever they are worth doesn’t really matter…’
“Okay then! Thank you very much!” Lin Zi Yan’s lips curled into a smile, and although with her wealth she could get all the pills she wanted, she was still touched by Ye Wei’s gesture and kind heart.
After handing over the pills, Ye Wei started collecting the cold-marrow jade on the floor; they were just floor tiles in this house, but they are worth quite a bit outside.
A few banging noises came from the corridor, and the house was shaken. Someone was attacking the barrier from the outside, just as Lin Zi Yan expected. If she wasn’t there to block the entrance with a stance, they would have already entered the stone house.
Ye Wei and Lin Zi Yan gave each other the same look, both of them could feel that the intruders were strong, and they had to get ready for a fight.
“Bang! Bang!”
The stone house was shaken a couple more times, and Lin Zi Yan’s defensive stance was neutralized with a rumbling noise.
Four silhouettes appeared behind the dusty entrance, and they slowly entered the room then scanned around. They could feel the cold and see the jade tiles. The jade was not just a luxurious decoration, this was a pill room. The temperature was lowered intentionally to keep the bottles of pills in peak condition.
There was no pills in sight, all they could see was a boy and a girl. Their pupils dilated and their greedy glare intensified; all eye bloodshot eyes were now on Lin Zi Yan and Ye Wei.
“Give us the pills, and we will spare your lives!” All four of them were wearing light blue robes and blocking the entrance like a blue wall. Seeing that all four of them were Warriors, and knowing that Lin Zi Yan’s defensive stance would take more than one person to neutralize, they knew it would be a tough fight.
