1498 Jing Hengran’s Excitement
“Fortunately, I didn’t disgrace myself!” Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and handed over the spirit bottle. Even though the bottle was tightly shut, a faint fragrance still wafted out to fill the entire room.
Jing Hengran’s hands practically shook as he reached for the spirit bottle on the table. Qian Zhengde also craned his neck and stared fixedly at the spirit bottle without blinking.
Jing Hengran pulled out the stopper and held the bottle up to take a sniff. This time, Chi Shuyan had given him supreme-grade spirit pills. Even putting aside the fact that they had been refined from a 1,000-year-old Fire Lingzhi, her pills generally had more spiritual energy than other pills, to say nothing of supreme-grade spirit pills. As soon as Jing Hengran held up the bottle, he was assailed by an authentic pill fragrance. Jing Hengran’s whole body shook. The spiritual energy contained in these pills was so dense that his dantian actually trembled slightly.
Jing Hengran hurriedly poured out a fat, white medicinal pill into his palm. The color and fragrance of this medicinal pill was superior, and it also looked very beautiful. It was better and more beautiful than any high-grade medicinal pills he had seen in the past. Could this be a high-grade Marrow Recovery Pill?
Thinking this, Jing Hengran became even more excited, and the veins on his forehead twitched slightly with agitation. On the side, Qian Zhengde, who had seen the world and many high-grade medicinal pills, was also excited when he got a clear look at this pill. His voice trembled as he blurted out, “Miss Chi, is… is this a high-grade Marrow Recovery Pill?”
As Jing Hengran stared intently at the Marrow Recovery Pill, Chi Shuyan was a little worried that he would recognize that it was a supreme-grade pill. Fortunately, he had probably never seen a real supreme-grade pill. It could be said that in modern times, spiritual energy was scarce, and refining a high-grade pill was very difficult. As for supreme-grade pills, it wasn’t that they didn’t exist, but the chances of refining one was like one in tens of billions.
Since she had brought these three supreme-grade Marrow Restoration Pills, Chi Shuyan had come prepared with a reason. Seeing that the other party hadn’t guessed that they were supreme-grade Marrow Recovery Pills at all and was willing to believe that they were high-grade pills, Chi Shuyan smiled a little more and deliberately nodded bashfully. “I was lucky. Fortunately, I didn’t disgrace myself, and refined three ‘high-grade’ Marrow Restoration Pills!”
As soon as Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde heard the words “three high-grade Marrow Recovery Pills,” it was as if a bombshell had been dropped on them. Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. This stimulation was no different from an ordinary person seeing a ghost in broad daylight.
It could be said that before Miss Chi handed over these medicinal pills, the two of them only hoped that she would successfully refine a Marrow Recovery Pill. As for the grade, they had no demands at all.
The thought of one pill already shook them so much, let alone three high-grade Marrow Recovery Pills. Not to mention how excited Qian Zhengde was, the calm expression on Jing Hengran’s face completely cracked bit by bit at her words. His eyes were red and his whole body trembled faintly. Without saying anything, he immediately poured out the other two pills from the spirit bottle.
Sure enough!
The other two Marrow Recovery Pills were almost identical in color and fragrance to the one in his palm.
Jing Hengran suppressed the shock and excitement in his heart and immediately had Qian Zhengde go and get the pills tested for spiritual energy. After the test, Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde saw with their own eyes that these three pills weren’t just high-grade Marrow Recovery Pills, but were of a very high grade. The abundance of spiritual energy in the pills was unbelievable and shocking, and the two of them felt like they were daydreaming.
On the side, Chi Shuyan, who was calm, broke out in a cold sweat when she saw Jing Hengran personally test the spiritual energy in the pills. After the two of them finished testing the pills, they didn’t move for a long time, their expressions stupefied and dazed. She vaguely felt that she had done too much this time. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and explained, “Young Master Jing, I was lucky this time. I didn’t expect to really refine a high-grade Marrow Recovery Pill. Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If it wasn’t for the free pill cauldron from your store, how could I have refined such a high-grade pill?”
Jing Hengran: …
Qian Zhengde: …
“What did you say?”
“What did you say?”
Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde almost turned pale with fright as they stared at Chi Shuyan with wide eyes. Chi Shuyan feigned innocence.
“Didn’t Young Master Jing and Manager Qian ask me to specially choose a pill cauldron for free? It is especially easy to refine pills and condense them quickly with that pill cauldron!”
She had drawn too much attention this time, so she had to use a reasonable excuse. The pill cauldron was a very good excuse. Besides, the pill cauldron which the Jing family had given her had indeed played a huge role in refining supreme-grade pills this time. Even if the other party later found out that these three were all supreme-grade pills, she could still use the pill cauldron as a reasonable excuse.
Of course, while she was so frank about the benefits of the pill cauldron, she was certain that the other party wasn’t thick-skinned enough to take the pill cauldron back, given their cooperation.
Jing Hengran: …
Qian Zhengde: …
Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde had racked their brains, but they never thought that the ‘high-grade’ medicinal pills refined by the other party would actually be related to the pill cauldron from their store. In order to further convince the both of them, Chi Shuyan took out the pill cauldron, which had already turned light golden, from her Cosmos Ring and said, “This is the pill cauldron which your store gave me. Sure enough, it’s extraordinary!”
Jing Hengran wasn’t surprised when Miss Chi took the cauldron out of thin air, but Qian Zhengde was a bit surprised. However, when the two saw the pill cauldron, they couldn’t think of anything else.
As soon as they saw it, they could tell that it was definitely no ordinary pill cauldron. Qian Zhengde even took a closer look, and realized that the complicated patterns engraved around the pill cauldron were familiar – this was indeed the pill cauldron which their shop had given to Miss Chi for free; however, it had been black all over back then.
Now, this light golden pill cauldron simply blinded him. At the thought that this pill cauldron was probably extraordinary, Qian Zhengde’s heart ached and his breathing picked up.
Seeing Qian Zhengde’s actions, Jing Hengran was also sure that this pill cauldron was indeed a free gift from their store. When he thought of how they had given away such a treasure for free, Jing Hengran’s heart ached and he almost choked. Looking at the light golden pill cauldron, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
“Young… Young Master Jing, this… this really is the pill cauldron which our store gave to Miss Chi!” Qian Zhengde stuttered.
Chi Shuyan’s lips curved up and she said, “Thank you for the free pill cauldron. I put it to good use. Without it, how could I be lucky enough to refine some high-grade Marrow Recovery Pills? Thank you!”
