Han Sen did not want to visit the Qi family himself, so he asked Ji Ruozhen to buy the pills for him. He also explained to him the likely benefice the pills would provide humanity in the future.
Ji Ruozhen's thoughts aligned with Han Sen's own. He had convened a family meeting earlier, in the hopes of asking the family whether or not they should buy all the pet pills produced by the Qi family.
But everyone present was keener on the prospects presented by Angel Gene Fluid, and they disregarded what Ji Ruozhen told them. He was unable to convince the others in the family.
Ji Ruozhen instead used his own money to purchase as many pills as possible. Han Sen himself sold everything he did not need, and used the money he amassed to buy as much of the Qi family's stock of pills as he could.
Because the Qi family had overstocked, unaware of the promotional blunder that was waiting to happen, they were facing bankruptcy. They had spent a fortune on ingredients for future production of the pills, but the low sales put a large financial strain on the family. To regain as much of their capital as possible, they settled for setting the selling price of the pills under their production cost and selling at a loss. Now that Ji Ruozhen was buying so many, the Qi family was extremely grateful.
After all, a lot of money was going Angel Gene's way instead. Few had the money to help the Qi family, especially when competing with Angel Gene. The help Ji Ruozhen lent the Qi family was massive.
Han Sen was the one funding most of the purchases, however. Ji Ruozhen only stood in to make the transactions and deal with the business. And as this was happening, Han Sen spent a lot of time in the sanctuary, wondering how he might protect the Jade-Gold Tree.
After much deliberation, Han Sen came to the conclusion he would not be able to protect it from a siege. Therefore, he thought about striking out against the Devil-Blood King first. He wagered the that offense, at a time like this, would be the best defense.
”Not bad. But how are you going to draw the super creatures out of the Devil-Blood Shelter?” Although Moment Queen had faith in the plan working, the super creatures were inside the shelter and there was no way Han Sen could just wander in. If they couldn't be drawn out, any preparation they now made would all be for naught.
”Drawing them out will not be difficult, provided I can be as fleet-of-foot as I need to be.” Han Sen laughed. He was thinking of calling upon Wang Yuhang. To draw super creatures away, he figured they would have no choice but to rely on him.
It was fortunate Wang Yuhang had been captured by the Zhao family not too long ago. Finding him again in the surrounding regions would be much easier now.
When he did find Wang Yuhang again, he asked him whether or not he wanted to hunt super creatures with him.
”Super creatures? They are naught compared to the strength and zeal I command these days. I will lay waste to aught that comes our way!” Wang Yuhang's chest was puffed in a display of cockiness.
Han Sen was surprised at Wang Yuhang's behavior and asked, ”Little Uncle, since when did you become so brave?”
”Teehee! I will not cloak the font of my bravery. See here, this remedy I possess?” As he said this, he pulled a metal box out of his pack. Inside it, there were two vials of a certain concoction.
”Angel Gene Fluid?” Han Sen remembered what they looked like.
”Teehee! The higher-tier variant, as well. You can cast elemental powers like projectiles with these nifty little potions,” Wang Yuhang said.
”Where did you get it from?” Han Sen was surprised. They were very popular, and many people clamored for them, but with the limited amount of blood available for their creation, their stock was low. Wang Yuhang was by no means a famous evolver, so the fact that he owned two was startling.
”I bought them. You would be silly to believe the Zhao family would grace the magnificence of myself with these, free of charge.” Wang Yuhang put away the vials and continued with a thump of his chest, ”So, where is this place you speak of? For whatever monstrous devilry challenges you, I shall slay unwaveringly!”
”Oh, so it's good that I can depend on you.” Han Sen smiled. Wang Yuhang was very confident right now, so it was the perfect time to bring him to the Devil-Blood Shelter.
If it were any other day, he would most likely refuse to come. There were indeed far too many super creatures residing there, and with his bad luck, it'd cause a number of troubles.
