Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 701 - 763 The Great Elixir Pills Competition
Chapter 701: Chapter 763: The Great Elixir Pills Competition Chapter 701: Chapter 763: The Great Elixir Pills Competition Chapter 763
Tang Shengfeng’s car was a silver-gray Bentley that sat silently in front of VOGUE.
Long Xiaoshan stared into Tang Shengfeng’s eyes.
Having control over nearly ten billion in wealth and being undefeated in the business world, Tang Shengfeng was undoubtedly a sly old fox, a person whose color wouldn’t change even when Mount Tai collapses before him.
Yet, under Long Xiaoshan’s profound gaze, he felt as if thousands of ants were crawling all over his body, and after a moment, sweat had soaked through his shirt.
Just as Tang Shengfeng could hardly bear that invisible pressure anymore,
Long Xiaoshan spoke, “Well, I would like to hear what matter Mr.
Tang has to discuss with me.”
The instant Long Xiaoshan opened his mouth,
Tang Shengfeng felt those countless ants crawling away from his body.
He exhaled in relief and subtly twisted his neck.

...
“Dragon Divine Doctor, please!”
Tang Shengfeng personally opened the door of the Bentley.
After the two sat down in the car,
Tang Shengfeng got straight to the point, “Divine Doctor, you are from the Hidden Sect, aren’t you?”
Long Xiaoshan’s gaze flickered slightly, before it swiftly returned to being as deep and still as a placid lake.
He gently tapped twice on the Bentley’s door armrest, which was as finely crafted as a young girl’s skin, and counter-questioned, “Are you also from a Hidden Sect, Mr.
Tang?”
“Me?” Tang Shengfeng shook his head and sighed, “Although I was indeed born into a Hidden Sect family, I can’t consider myself one of the people from the Secret Sects !”
At this point, a hint of frustration seemed to leak out from Tang Shengfeng’s eyes, but he quickly concealed it, “Divine Doctor, you should be aware of the Tang Family of Xichuan.”
Long Xiaoshan’s eyes sharpened, “You are from the Tang Family?”
Of course he knew the Tang Family.
As the foremost noble family in Xichuan, during Bai’s Medicinal Materials’ last auction, the Tang Family had sent Tang Xiao to place a bid for the Snow Lotus, only for Lan Wan’er to snatch it away under his nose.
Nevertheless, the name of the Tang Family was as loud as thunder in his ears.
He was just surprised that Tang Shengfeng turned out to be a member of the Tang Family.
“Correct.
I am from the Tang Family.
My father and the current Family Head of the Tang Family, Tang Xun, are brothers.
However, due to some issues, I left for QY City to develop,” Tang Shengfeng elaborated.
Long Xiaoshan could detect a hint of discontent in Tang Shengfeng’s tone.
He guessed that in such grand families, dirty politics must be commonplace.
Otherwise, why would Tang Shengfeng forgo Tianfu City for QY City?
Although QY City was decent in West Chuan, it was far behind Tianfu City, be it economically or politically.
However, this mattered little to him.
Long Xiaoshan had no interest in prying.
He said, “Since Mr.
Tang is from the Tang Family, with wealth and power, what business do you have with me?”
Tang Shengfeng asked, “May I boldly inquire about your background, Divine Doctor?
Such a heroic individual like yourself has entered the Mysterious Realm at such a young age; surely you must be from one of the major Hidden Sects.
With proficiency in medicine as well, could you possibly be a top disciple of Medicine King Valley or the Heavenly Medicine Sect?”
Long Xiaoshan laughed heartily and shook his head, “I’m afraid I must disappoint you, Mr.
Tang.
I’m not from any major Hidden Sect, just a mere Loose Cultivator.”
Tang Shengfeng was astonished and voiced his disbelief, “How is that possible?
There’s no way a Loose Cultivator could possess your kind of strength.”
Although Tang Shengfeng himself was not among the people of the Secret Sects, he was born into a Hidden Sect family.
He had some understanding of the affairs within the Hidden Sects.
In this current Age of Dharma Decline, the environment for cultivation was getting worse by the day, with most of the cultivation resources controlled by major Hidden Sects.
No matter how talented you are, without joining a sect, you would end up mediocre for life.
Just like him – his talent was not inferior to Tang Xun’s back in the day, but to no avail.
Nowadays, Tang Xun was at the Xuan-level Late Stage, a family head, whereas he was just muddling along in the Late Yellow Stage.
This was the importance of resources.
Many cultivation resources can’t be bought with money.
Otherwise, the Tang Family wouldn’t have made such a big fuss over a single Snow Lotus, going as far as to deploy Tang Xiao.
“I have no need to lie to you.
I told you I am a Loose Cultivator, not that I don’t have a master.
However, my master is a wandering expert who, after teaching me medical skills and martial arts, continued his wanderings around the world, barely seen once a year,” Long Xiaoshan casually fabricated.
“A wandering hermit?” Tang Shengfeng was somewhat doubtful.
While it seemed far-fetched, it did offer some explanation.
Perhaps there truly were such selfless sages in the world, leaving behind their legacy.
It was just Xiaoshan’s identity as a loose cultivator.
It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured down.
Originally, he thought Xiaoshan was a distinguished disciple from Medicine King Valley or the Heavenly Medicine Sect.
At such a young age, he had already attained Profound Level strength, perhaps he was a core disciple of either sect.
If they could enlist such a disciple, there might indeed be a glimmer of hope for curing the old ancestor.
Even if a cure wasn’t possible, the earnest intent would have been clear.
Now, hearing that Xiaoshan was a loose cultivator.
How could he dare take such a risk?
Disappointed, Tang Shengfeng said, “Since that’s the case, there’s no need to trouble the Divine Doctor any further.”
“Dad, Mr.
Long’s medical skills are really high, definitely stronger than anyone you’re looking for from Medicine King Valley or the Heavenly Medicine Sect.
Really, we should just ask Mr.
Long to do it,” Tang Yan, sitting beside, interjected.
Tang Shengfeng said sternly, “Little Yan, don’t talk nonsense.”
Having always been willful, Tang Yan was not afraid of Tang Shengfeng and retorted, “It’s true, isn’t it?
At this point, even if you find someone else to participate in the Elixir Pills competition, would there still be time?”
“The Elixir Pills competition?” Xiaoshan had already been thinking of getting off, not bothering with whatever Tang Shengfeng wanted from him.
Since they weren’t seeking his help, that was even better for him, but the mention of these four words stopped him, and he showed a hint of interest.
“What Elixir Pills competition?”
Before Tang Shengfeng could speak, Tang Yan rapidly started explaining, “It’s an event organized by the Tang Family, inviting alchemy experts from the Secret Sects to gather on Tiandu Mountain to hold an Elixir Pills competition.
It is said that whoever takes first place will receive a Hundred Spirits Grass.”
“Hundred Spirits Grass!”
Xiaoshan’s eyes narrowed.
Hundred Spirits Grass was no ordinary herb.
It was a true Spirit Grass.
Worth as much as Thousand-Year Spiritual Medicine, it could enhance spiritual cultivation.
It was tantamount to a priceless treasure, unavailable at any cost.
The Tang Family was actually offering a Hundred Spirits Grass.
To a Martial Artist, the grass’s effects were good.
But for an Alchemist, it was an immeasurable treasure.
The most crucial thing for an Alchemist was spiritual power, and the Tang Family’s offer of the Hundred Spirits Grass was clearly targeted at Alchemists.
Last time, when Xiaoshan split his Primordial Spirit to form an External Incarnation, his soul was damaged and had not yet fully recovered.
If he could acquire the Hundred Spirits Grass, his soul would surely heal, and he might even reach new heights.
Because after he obtained the Hundred Spirits Grass, he could concoct the Hundred Spirits Pill.
This was a Divine Pill, a level above the Lesser Qi Nurturing Pill.
At this thought,
Xiaoshan was determined to obtain the Hundred Spirits Grass at all costs.
He said sternly, “I will attend this Elixir Pills competition.”
“Ah?” Tang Shengfeng showed a trace of embarrassment.
He hadn’t planned to bring Xiaoshan to the competition after finding out he was a loose cultivator, considering them too unreliable.
But his daughter had spoken too quickly, and now that Xiaoshan had taken the initiative to go, it put him in a difficult position.
Knowing what Tang Shengfeng was thinking, Xiaoshan didn’t bother with idle talk and took out a Qi Nurturing Pill, handing it to Tang Shengfeng: “Have a look first, this is an Elixir Pill I concocted!”
