YM778.TV Chapter 95: Golden Dragon Pill... price... 250.000.000 Spirit Stones?!
"Thank you, Healer Lu, for the invaluable knowledge!" they said.
"You\'re welcome. I wish you luck on your path," she modestly replied to them. She saw off each student with a smile, treating them fairly and equally, without giving anyone more attention than necessary.
When the lecture hall was empty, only Xie Qing and Lu Yin remained. The room began to shrink, and soon they found themselves in a much smaller room.
"Excellent work, Xie Qing. Your skills have shaken my understanding of alchemy and given me a strong kick in the butt to keep me from getting complacent," said Lu Yin with a friendly smile, and then regretfully added, "Although it\'s a pity that your alchemical flame is not of the highest quality. Otherwise, your potential would be fully realized."
"Indeed, but I am not rich enough to be able to buy an alchemical flame," Xie Qing said with a bitter smile and continued, changing the subject, "You look excited. Has something happened?"
"Ah, so you noticed!" Lu Yin awkwardly smiled and began to explain that the next day there would be a gathering of the righteous path, where the main disciples of the sects would discuss the cultivation world, share knowledge, and so on.
"In other words, a gathering for people with nothing better to do," Xie Qing said in a whisper.
"Ha ha... yes, partly so. But I see it as a meeting with friends, as we rarely have the opportunity to meet due to our obligations in the sect and our families," Lu Yin replied with a ringing laugh like a skylark, covering her cherry lips, and her shoulders shook with laughter. "But your characterization is indeed funny. I think from the outside our meetings do leave that impression."
"Otherwise, I don\'t see the point," Xie Qing agreed with a smile and noted, "By the way, you have a beautiful laugh. And your smile has become much more sincere."
"Uh..." Lu Yin was taken aback and blushed slightly. "Well, thank you for the compliment," she replied with a slightly stammering voice, and then the color of her face returned to normal. She looked at the young man and said, "The day after tomorrow there will be an advanced alchemy lecture in the morning. I strongly urge you to arrive on time, as you are in the first group this month."
"Of course, I would not dare to put you in an awkward position," Xie Qing said with an understanding expression.
***
It was already one o\'clock in the morning when Xie Qing returned to his hotel room. He opened the door and raised his eyebrows when he saw that Xie Meiling was sitting next to the door reading something.
"Why are you sitting in this cold place?" he asked, taking off his guest clothes.
"I was waiting for you," Xie Meiling said.
Xie Meiling looked at the young man and saw that he looked a little tired, and she raised her eyebrows, her expression reminiscent of her son.
"Why do you look so tired? Did you pick up another girl on the road?"
"Eh?" Xie Qing couldn\'t help but make a strange sound, and seeing the jealousy in his mother\'s eyes, he smiled mischievously and then shook his head. "Of course not. I don\'t have time to spend on young ladies when my mother is spending time alone here."
"Uh..." Xie Meiling snorted, but her face became much softer, and her eyes showed joy. The young man was silent but inwardly shook his head.
"She\'s jealous? Hmm, it seems our relationship isn\'t as ordinary as it might seem... is this the curse of being handsome?" he thought, once again putting on a haughty look.
After he finished undressing, the young man changed into a robe and sat on the bed. Xie Meiling put her head on his lap and purred softly as the young man stroked her long hair. "How is your cultivation going?" the young man asked with a smile, looking at her cute behavior.
"Not everyone is a monster like you and Xu Mei," Xie Meiling replied, stretching the young man\'s cheeks and laughing when she saw how funny his face looked. "Hihi. You\'re so cute."
"..." Xie Qing raised his eyebrows.
"Cute? I haven\'t been called cute since I was five years old," the young man thought, distorting the corners of his mouth.
So he decided to tease his mother a little. He secretly lowered his hands to her butt and then slapped it. Slap! The sound was muffled because she was wearing a fairly thick layer of clothing, so the force of the blow was dampened.
However, it was enough to make Xie Meiling feel a strange vibration inside her body, and her face turned red with shame.
The hands stretching Xie Qing\'s cheeks fell, and she involuntarily let out a moan: "Mmm~... uh!"
It took two seconds for her to realize what had happened, and in panic, she closed her eyes.
But it was too late - Xie Qing had heard and was looking at her with narrowed eyes that showed amusement. Like a frightened cat, Xie Meiling suddenly disappeared.
Even with his keen eyes, the young man could barely follow her and found that she had fled to the second room.
"Ooh... if it weren\'t for this layer of clothing..." Xie Qing thought, shaking his head regretfully.
Young Master Xie Qing was that pervert who didn\'t even spare his mother.
Seeing Xie Meiling, he always felt the urge to protect her and keep her close to him. Not allowing anyone to touch her or come within a centimeter. This was even reminiscent of dragons guarding everything that belonged to them and not allowing people to even approach their treasures.
"Could the bloodline be influencing me this way?" the young man thought, tilting his head to the side: "Strange..."
And it could very well be because of his perverted nature, who knows about this bastard? Xie Qing cast a reproachful glance somewhere behind him but saw no one. "Hm? I distinctly felt someone cursing me," the young man thought in bewilderment.
The next day, Xie Qing had no classes because Lu Yin was leaving for the gathering, and he had mastered the basic lessons completely.
"Boring..." the young man thought.
Xie Meiling also shared his boredom, and she was always sighing. Not knowing what to do, the young man entered a store.
He had accumulated wealth and now had slightly less than two million Spirit Stones.
He didn\'t need anything at the moment, but he could buy something for his loved ones. There were many goods, many of them very expensive, but the young man was now interested in the "pills" section.
"Ah, this..." he exclaimed in admiration. A road to another world opened up before him. Countless pills that looked as if they had been produced by a great alchemist... no, a legendary alchemist!
[Soul Growth Pill] | [Price: 170,000 Spirit Stones] | [Description: Helps strengthen the soul and slightly accelerate soul growth]
[Phoenix Rebirth Pill] | [Price: 750,000 Spirit Stones] | [Description: A pill made from the blood of a phoenix chick. Can help survive death, but only works once]
[Instant Cultivation Pill] | [Price: 1,500,000 Spirit Stones] | [Description: A pill that helps raise a realm. There are risks of death].
[Golden Dragon Pill] | [Price: 250,000,000 Spirit Stones] | [Description: Allows you to strengthen your physique and also acquire the bloodline of the Golden Dragon].
The prices were simply insane, especially for the last pill. Xie Qing raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Golden Dragon? I\'ve seen this name before... it\'s almost present in all items and always very expensive," Xie Qing thought.
Golden Dragon. It seemed to be some kind of high-class dragon bloodline because the cultivation world always called gold what was powerful.
At least, Xie Qing understood this from the names of the techniques, which sounded as if they had been produced in the same factory.
Most of the pills were indeed something that an ordinary person could not obtain. Especially the Phoenix Rebirth Pill.
"The ability to be reborn after death... for this pill, people would give not some 750,000 Spirit Stones, but hundreds of millions," Xie Qing thought. For a second, he was overcome with greed - to buy the pill and sell it, but...
"No, that would be stupid. If the cultivation world were so humane and polite, then hundreds of millions of lives would not have been lost in vain," the young man concluded and narrowed his eyes: "If this pill appeared on the shelf, then hundreds of millions of cultivators would fight for possession of it. Even I could not escape the danger."
Realizing these facts, which could threaten his safety, Xie Qing overcame his greed and, sighing, continued to flip through the catalog.
There were simply an unbearable number of pills and various items. Each of them cost more than ten million and had incredible effects, for which even immortals would fight. Xie Qing sighed a little.
He wanted to come up with some kind of business and make a lot of money to buy and arm himself, becoming as bright as a peacock. However, he had to bite his lip and close the store.
There was nothing he needed right now, so this was more of a way to pass the time. And accidentally missing, he entered a strange category called \'Other.\'
"What..."
"It..."
"Is...!?"
