Chapter 26 The Great Money-Making Plan
This is something that can be done, but it's unnecessary for Wang Yu.
The trap has been set; now it's just a matter of waiting for the right moment. Whenever Su Zhenchuan wants to find him, Zhao Shang will naturally be in trouble.
If I don't look for it, it doesn't matter. I'll take my revenge myself sooner or later!
On the other hand, although he had long heard of Su Qingshan's reputation, this was their first meeting, and directly discussing killing the manager of the Ice and Snow Pavilion was a bit too arrogant.
It is a major taboo to speak too intimately with someone you don't know well, and it is even more foolish to place your trust in them.
Su Qingshan is different from the brute who ambushed him last time. This is a ruthless person who has truly risen from the bottom of the demonic path and is expected to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Who knows what his purpose is?
Wang Yu's attitude was to retreat and avoid the situation.
After several rounds of drinks and nearly finished eating, Wang Yu got up to take his leave. Su Qingshan watched his departing figure for a long time without getting up.
"To be able to fight his way out of the spirit slaves, he is indeed no easy opponent. It will probably be very difficult to find out about the second-tier spirit pill that Tantai Chan refined from him."
Muttering to himself, Su Qingshan felt a pang of regret at the cost of over a hundred spirit stones when he paid the bill. After leaving Bazhenzhai, he did not return to Bingxuelou, but instead went to the residence of a Foundation Establishment deacon.
He tumbled over the wall and into the room. A fragrant breeze carried a large shadow as it descended. Su Qingshan froze, not daring to dodge, and a forced smile appeared on his face.
“Nizi…”
"My lord~"
The greasy, sausage-like red lips were forcibly pressed against the corners of his mouth, and the foul smell that even rouge and powder couldn't cover up almost made Su Qingshan vomit. For the sake of the Foundation Establishment Pill, he could only suppress his physiological instincts and utter sweet words.
After a long while, he finally caught his breath.
"Nizi, are you sure Deacon Tantai refined a Foundation Establishment Pill?"
"My husband~"
"Why don't you believe him? Father said it himself."
"I believe you! Of course I believe you!"
In fact, a normal Foundation Establishment Pill doesn't require him to go to such great lengths to plan. For example, a second-grade low-rank Reverse Blood Pill is also a Foundation Establishment Pill.
What needs to be planned is often a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill that can increase the chances by 50% to 60%. Su Qingshan approached Wang Yu simply to verify whether the information was true.
During the six months that Tantai Chan was refining elixirs, Wang Yu happened to be working as a herb farmer there, so the probability that he knew some information was quite high.
If he wants to seize it, he will have to take risks.
Therefore, needing confirmation from multiple sources before daring to take a risk is also a way to urge oneself to make a decision.
"Let's not talk about that, girl. The elixir your father-in-law gave you..."
"Here it is, my husband. Refine it quickly. Once you break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, we can live happily ever after."
"I, Su Qingshan, swear that I will marry Xu Jiaojiao in this lifetime!"
"Don't speak, just kiss me—"
Tonight is destined to be sleepless.

Wang Yu was unaware of what had happened on Su Qingshan's side. He had already returned from the [Zhu Dian Fang] and was currently in an ordinary cave dwelling in the Evil God Fang.
It only has simple soundproofing and protective barriers.
He only changed three of the first-tier pill formulas, spending a total of fifty contribution points.
The formulas for Bigu Dan and Huiling Dan together only cost ten points. The most expensive one is a hot-selling Miracle Dan, which is in short supply.
Named "The Elixir of All Wonders," it is specially used in bed to give both or even multiple people the pleasure of reaching the ultimate state of bliss.
The first two types of pills only need to be left for a month to reach perfection, which will make it convenient for him to apply for a job at Xu's Pill Shop two months later. If he can refine two types of first-grade spiritual pills, he might be able to become an alchemist at the pill shop.
After all, these are two of the most widely sold elixirs, so there is no shortage of market demand.
[Placement Item 3: All-Encompassing Elixir]
"The Elixir of All Wonders (0/100): It can be refined 24 times a day and completed in 72 days."
Each batch takes half an hour to produce, making this elixir a relatively complicated type among first-tier pills, requiring a high level of skill.
After observing for a while, Wang Yu changed into the Bigu Pill and focused on preparing for the opening of Xu's Pill Shop two months later. The matter of making a name for himself could wait.
Bigu Dan and Huiling Dan are both inexpensive pills and necessities for carrying out missions outside the sect.
A bottle costs around one hundred spirit stones, and depending on its grade, it can rise to up to two hundred spirit stones, which is a reasonable price.
One Bigu Pill can last for three to six months, while the Rejuvenation Pill can restore 30% to 60% of spiritual power; both are quite practical.
The Myriad Wonders Pill is different; it's a luxury-type elixir, and only those with considerable wealth can afford it—three to five hundred spirit stones per bottle.
It is estimated that Wang Yu only needs 500 spirit stones as start-up capital to start the cycle and accumulate more and more.
Having set this goal, Wang Yu began a period of arduous cultivation, practicing meditation and internal energy cultivation, and studying alchemy.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
On his 250th day as an outer disciple, Wang Yu chose to come back a day later to avoid the peak crowds that usually follow opening days.
The owner of Xu's Pill Shop was the white-haired cultivator with a cloud-covered crown whom I had met at Tantai's Herb Garden that day. He was also a mid-grade second-level pill master and seemed to be pursuing Tantai Chan.
The first peak of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, [Blood Nether Peak], is also a Nascent Soul Daoist training ground. Now, many Foundation Establishment deacons have chosen to establish themselves in the Evil God Pavilion.
This place is too difficult to navigate; the intricacies are too complex, requiring connections and favors. It's much more comfortable to come to Evil God's Quarter.
Newly opened shops usually offer various discounts.
Even the next day, there was still a considerable flow of people. When Wang Yu entered the three-story pavilion with a backyard, he was immediately served by a servant.
"Fellow Daoist, are you interested in the elixir?"
"I would like to ask if Xu's Alchemy Shop is recruiting alchemists."
"this---"
Before he could answer, a richly dressed young man descended from the pavilion, his expression one of disgust. "No, no, where did this Qi Refining Level 3 guy come from? Someone with this level of cultivation can even refine pills?"
Wang Yu frowned, not expecting his campaign to fail so soon.
He didn't want to get into conflicts with anyone anyway, and besides, there were plenty of pill shops in the Reverse Blood Ten Workshops. If all else failed, he could try his luck at the alchemy hall. With that thought changed, he turned and left.
"Wait a minute, little brother."
At this moment, a slightly aged voice called out to him. He turned around and saw an old man with a white beard, who was in the late stage of Qi Refining and was estimated to be about 120 or 130 years old. In the demonic path, it was rare to live to this age.
Wang Yu gave him face and cupped his hands in greeting.
"I wonder what you mean by calling me here, senior."
"Xu's Pill Shop is recruiting alchemists. I wonder what kinds of elixirs you can refine?"
"Bigu Dan (a pill for fasting) and Huiling Dan (a pill for restoring vitality)."
“Very good, very good. Deacon Xu was just worried about not having enough energy and wanted to focus on refining second-tier spirit pills. He had already instructed me to find a suitable first-tier alchemist for him. Young friend, you are just right.”
The elegantly dressed young man approached and said with a disdainful expression.
“Grandpa, this kid is only at the third level of Qi Refining and is still an outer disciple. If he ruins the reputation of the pill shop, we can’t bear the responsibility.”
Good heavens, Wang Yu thought he was the young master of the pill shop, speaking so rudely. Turns out he's just the grandson of a manager, what's with all the arrogance?!
Upon hearing this, the white-bearded old man both nodded and shook his head.
"Young man, according to the rules, if you have the Alchemy Hall's token, you can take up the post directly. If not, you must pass an assessment to verify your abilities before you can join the position. What is your wish?"
