65: Chapter 64 Trade Completed_1

65 -64 Trade Completed_1

With a trace of confusion, the old man received the porcelain bottle from Xiao Chen’s hand.

The instant he uncorked the bottle, his usually unconcerned eyes blasted out two sharp rays of light and his hands trembled involuntarily.

Before anyone could react, he hurriedly corked the bottle back up, gripping it tightly.

Despite only slightly uncorking the bottle, the lustrous elixir immediately reflected in the old man’s eyes.

The faint medicinal scent entered his nostrils, the word “elixir” immediately flashing in his mind.

It was indeed a huge surprise; he didn’t expect to find such a rare item in resource-scarce Giant Stone Valley.

“What a waste of treasure.” Such a treasure was stored in a porcelain bottle.

Did he not know that jade bottles were necessary to better preserve the Medicine’s properties?

He clutched the porcelain bottle tightly, not intending to give it back in the slightest.

His slightly accusing look left Xiao Chen confused, unsure of how he offended the elder again.

Was he not satisfied with it?

If Xiao Chen knew that the old man was merely upset about his elixir not being stored in a jade bottle, he would feel unjustly accused.

As a Pill Master, how could he not know such common knowledge?

But the Gu Yuan Tribe was so poor that they couldn’t afford enough jade to make bottles, so he had to use porcelain as a substitute.

“I wonder how this trade sounds to you, elder.

I am willing to exchange two millennial Spirit Medicines for the Non-returning Grass in your hands.”

“Agreed!” Before Xiao Chen could finish his sentence, the elder hastily assented.

Perhaps feeling his behavior did not conform to the demeanor of an elder, he calmed his emotions before saying, “I am exceedingly fond of these treasures you’ve offered.

Should the two youngsters from the Shadow Forest Tribe have no more treasures to offer, I will make the trade with young brother Xiao Chen.”

The latter part was, of course, addressed to the Ying siblings.

After all, as the hosts, the elder had to consider the face of the Shadow Forest Tribe standing behind them.

However, to the onlookers, it seemed that the elder had already favored Xiao Chen.

They were greatly curious about what extraordinary treasure Xiao Chen had brought out.

Strictly speaking, the Bone-Tempering Elixir Xiao Chen offered could not compare in value to the two eight-hundred-year-old herbs that Ying Jie offered.

But who could argue when Alchemists were so rare; able to transform rotten materials into something magical, turning several ordinary medicinal materials aged around two to three hundred years into an elixir that the human body could absorb?

In other words, who dares to offend someone with such skills?

Even if you have an herb with eight hundred years of medicinal power, without the ability to harmonize its power for a child’s absorption and unable to remove its impurities, its value falls instantly for the elder who is actively cultivating a successor.

Ying Lin, seeing the old man’s expression, felt a sense of dread.

Realizing his own Treasure Medicines were inferior to Xiao Chen’s offering, his face darkened, and he was lost in thought.

The little witch Ying Lin’er behind him couldn’t help but jump out.

Her jade-like hands on her hips, she sported an indignant look.

“Hey, blockhead, just what kind of treasure did you bring out?”

“Haha, if that’s the case, I will trade this Non-returning Grass with young brother Xiao.

To tell the truth, I seem to have taken some advantage from you in this trade.

Although this old man has not wandered the Great Wasteland in decades, I made quite a lot of friends in my youth.

If young brother encounters trouble, I believe these tribal chiefs will still afford me some face.”

Of course, the old man had noticed the competition between Xiao Chen and the Ying siblings.

The Bone-Tempering Elixir that Xiao Chen offered was very valuable for him.

As a Ranger with added blessings from the human race, although it may seem glamorous on the surface, only they themselves could understand the difficulties within.

Success and failure, heaven and earth, everything was measured by time and luck.

For him, the elixir that Xiao Chen offered was beneficial in helping his grandson enter the Bone Tempering phase, which would play an immeasurable role in inheriting his legacy.

That’s why he said those words to Xiao Chen after the trade.

“Thank you elder, but as a man, Xiao Chen, with a long spear in hand, fears no one.

A man’s high aspirations will kill the barbaric invaders.

With his spear, he can fight the heroic men.”

Vociferous masculinity filled the air as Xiao Chen’s words were indeed provocative.

There was no hint of fear in the face of Ying Jie’s threat.

“Humph!

Hopefully, your strength can match your words in the upcoming challenges.”

Of course, Ying Jie was not happy.

Not only was his sister bullied, but this kid dared to steal the Non-returning Grass right from under his nose.

Even though this was fair competition, where the winner is determined by who offers more, his normal thought process had long since been abandoned due to his wrath.

All young heroes have a period of hot blood.

The old man had also been through this in his youth.

He, of course, understood that fearlessness is often found in the young’s first ventures, and that they possess the courage to move heaven and earth.

He wouldn’t refute Xiao Chen’s decision; conflicts between youths should be resolved by youths.

As for Ren Fei, standing by the side, he had given up competing for the treasure when the siblings from the Shadow Forest Tribe made their move.

As a Ranger with no tribe as his backing, he knew he was no match for the Ying siblings, so he never expected that Xiao Chen would become the dark horse and steal the treasure away.

Concerning Xiao Chen, Ren Fei had noticed him when he first arrived.

He was simply mixed in with the crowd, nothing extraordinary about him, but it gave him a feeling of calmness and self-assurance.

He had heard of Xiao Chen’s name before; this rising sun of Giant Stone Valley had piqued his interest for a while.

Before Xiao Chen’s rise, Ren Fei was the genius Ranger celebrated amongst the human tribes in Giant Stone Valley, revered as a genius talent capable of competing for a position on the Heaven and Earth List.

And towards another genius warrior like himself, how could he remain indifferent?

One mountain cannot contain two tigers; in the world of martial arts, positions cannot be shared.

At the moment, his heart was filled with an intense desire to fight.

The endless fighting will in his eyes as he looked at Xiao Chen, he wished he could fight Xiao Chen immediately to determine who was superior.

As both were young generation genius warriors, a clear distinction had to be made.

Especially after Xiao Chen’s skyrocketing fame following his battle against the alien tribes, his reputation had been spread through the Stone Valley by those he had saved and had exceeded Ren Fei’s.

Since the price had been decided, there was no longer a need for bargaining between the two; it was easy to proceed.

Xiao Chen handed over two millennial Spirit Medicines to the elder, and received the Non-returning Grass from the young boy’s hand.

In no time, their trade was complete.

Seeing that Xiao Chen had completed the trade, the crowd surrounding them didn’t seem to disperse.

On the contrary, they seemed more intensified.

Countless pairs of eyes stared straight at Xiao Chen and the others in the center, their eyes filled with boundless excitement and anticipation, as if ready to watch a show.
