Chapter 589 Bai Qingsong (shuhaige.net)

Chen Tianwen smiled as he looked at the young man before him, trying to guess his identity.

The young man walked up to Chen Tianwen, bowed, and said politely:

"Sir, I am the president of this branch of the White Moon Chamber of Commerce. You may call me Bai Qingsong."

Chen Tianwen returned the greeting and said:

"I dare not accept the title of 'sir'; my name is Chen Tianwen!"

Bai Qingsong quickly invited Chen Tianwen to sit down. A short while later, a maid brought two cups of immortal tea and then left the room.

Only Chen Tianwen, Bai Qingsong, and Elder Danchi remained in the room.

"Mr. Chen, you are so young yet so accomplished. Your alchemy skills have already reached the pinnacle. If I am not mistaken, Mr. Chen is at least a top-tier fourth-grade immortal alchemist, or even a fifth-grade alchemy king!"

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Elder Danchi took the initiative to break the deadlock, praising Chen Tianwen while also testing his strength!

Bai Qingsong also smiled as he looked at Chen Tianwen, seemingly quite interested in the topic.

Chen Tianwen smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but instead changed the subject and asked:

"Elder Danchi, if I remember correctly, my transaction volume is not yet high enough to qualify for a diamond card, is it?"

Elder Danchi clearly hadn't expected Chen Tianwen to suddenly steer the conversation this way. He glanced at Bai Qingsong, who nodded almost imperceptibly, before Elder Danchi finally spoke:

"Mr. Chen is right. The White Moon Chamber of Commerce stipulates that a transaction volume of 100,000 low-grade immortal crystals will earn you a gold card. If it reaches 100,000 mid-grade immortal crystals, you will earn a diamond card. Above the diamond card is the supreme card, but that requires a transaction volume of 100,000 high-grade immortal crystals!"

Chen Tianwen nodded. The other party's initiative in offering the diamond card showed their willingness to befriend him, and he should also show some sincerity in return!

"Elder Dan Chi just said that I am a fourth-grade immortal alchemist, or even a fifth-grade pill king, but that's just an empty title to me! However, I can refine the Seven Absolute Immortal Pill."

Chen Tianwen considered his words carefully before speaking, wanting to demonstrate his abilities without revealing too many of his trump cards.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Chen Tianwen spoke, Bai Qingsong and Elder Danchi revealed undisguised joy on their faces.

Bai Qingsong rose and bowed deeply to Chen Tianwen, his tone becoming respectful:

"Mr. Chen, I have a favor to ask!"

Chen Tianwen nodded and said:

"Young Master Bai, please speak freely. If it is within my power, I will certainly comply!"

Bai Qingsong took out a black and gold card from his pocket. There were faint Dao patterns flowing on the card, indicating that it was a decent immortal artifact. Bai Qingsong handed the card to Chen Tianwen, but Chen Tianwen did not take it. He just looked at Bai Qingsong and waited for his explanation.

Bai Qingsong did not take back the card, but simply maintained the gesture of handing it over, and said:

"Mr. Chen, this is my White Moon Chamber of Commerce's Supreme Card. It contains 10,000 high-grade immortal crystals. Moreover, this Supreme Card is also a spatial immortal artifact, containing a spiritual energy space of 1,000 kilometers!"

Chen Tianwen was somewhat surprised. A mere fourth-grade immortal pill would definitely not be worth this price, but Bai Qingsong had given away such a supreme card. Putting aside the status symbolized by the supreme card, the ten thousand high-grade immortal crystals alone would be enough to exchange for a fourth-grade immortal pill! Not to mention the thousand-kilometer spiritual energy space.

Chen Tianwen shook his head and said:

“Young Master Bai, I appreciate your kind intentions, but as the saying goes, one cannot accept a reward without merit. Please forgive me for not accepting this Supreme Card. Young Master Bai, please tell me what you need me to do?”

Bai Qingsong then took back the Supreme Card, but when he looked at Chen Tianwen again, his eyes revealed admiration!

Given the power of the White Moon Merchant Guild, possessing a Supreme Card was undoubtedly a symbol of status. Furthermore, ten thousand high-grade immortal crystals were a fortune in the Changtang Region. Yet, this young man remained completely unmoved!

Of course, Bai Qingsong's purpose in giving away this Supreme Card was not just for a Grade 4 Immortal Pill. More importantly, Chen Tianwen might be a Grade 5 Pill King, which made Bai Qingsong willing to spend a lot of money to befriend him.

Seeing that Chen Tianwen resolutely refused to accept the Supreme Card, Bai Qingsong had no choice but to sit down again and say:

"To be honest, an elder in my Bai family is suffering from a strange poison that can only be cured by the Seven Deadly Elixir. Therefore, I would like to trouble Mr. Chen to help refine this Seven Deadly Elixir!"

Chen Tianwen nodded and said:

"I can certainly refine the Seven-Fold Immortal Pill, but I don't have enough immortal herbs on hand. If your esteemed merchant guild can gather enough immortal herbs, I can start refining it right now!"

Bai Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"The White Moon Merchant Guild has a rich collection, and since Mr. Chen has troubled us to refine the elixir, the necessary medicinal herbs should naturally be provided by our White Moon Merchant Guild! Please list the required medicinal herbs, Mr. Chen, and I will have them prepared immediately!"

Chen Tianwen didn't stand on ceremony. He took out a jade slip and handed it to Bai Qingsong. The elixirs needed for the Seven Deadly Elixir were already engraved on it.

Bai Qingsong handed the jade slip to Elder Danchi, who dared not delay. After bidding farewell to Chen Tianwen, Elder Danchi went down to prepare the immortal herbs.

Bai Qingsong solemnly said to Chen Tianwen:

"Mr. Chen has done my Baiyue Chamber of Commerce such a great favor, and my Baiyue Chamber of Commerce will certainly repay you handsomely!"

Chen Tianwen waved his hand and said:

"It's alright! I have a question I'd like to ask Young Master Bai."

"Mr. Chen, please go ahead."

"With the White Moon Merchant Guild's strength, refining or acquiring the Seven Absolute Immortal Pill shouldn't be difficult, right? So why would they seek the pill in this way?"

As Chen Tianwen spoke, he pointed to the picture of fairies gathering herbs on the wall.

Bai Qingsong sighed. Since Chen Tianwen had already agreed to help him refine pills, there was indeed no need to hide anything. Moreover, Bai Qingsong could see that Chen Tianwen was a man of great wisdom. If he were to be secretive, it might backfire. So he spoke up:

"To be honest, Mr. Chen, with the financial resources of the White Moon Chamber of Commerce, acquiring the Seven-Seven Immortal Pill is naturally not a problem. However, such an elixir is something that is extremely rare and hard to come by. If we were to acquire it, we don't know how long we would have to wait."

"Furthermore, I'm not afraid to admit it, Mr. Chen, but the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce also has some rivals. Their branch in Buhuo City has just opened, and if they try to buy this kind of elixir, then the fact that this elder of the Bai family was poisoned will be known to those with ulterior motives!"

"Although Elder Dan Chi is also a fourth-grade immortal alchemist, the White Moon Merchant Guild does not have the complete formula for the Seven Absolute Immortal Pill, so he is willing but unable to refine it! In the end, he can only resort to this method, which is truly a last resort."

Chen Tianwen nodded. Bai Qingsong was quite honest; he spoke without leaving any room for doubt.

However, Chen Tianwen still vaguely guessed something, but since it concerned the Bai family, he didn't reveal it!
