Chapter 1725: Chapter 1725: Madness
After entrusting Jing Yan with alchemy again, Tu Xuan didn’t linger and immediately left Extreme Land Square.
She wanted to meet her father and tell him about this immediately.
Even if they can’t bring Jing Yan into the Tu Clan, they must do something. A Pill Master who can effortlessly refine the Dancing Crane Elixir is too important for the Tu Clan. Of course, such a Pill Master is very important to any force.
"Pill Master, I would like to commission you to refine a batch of Dancing Crane Elixir!" A cultivator of the Great Witch Realm stepped out from the crowd and stood opposite Jing Yan.
In his hand, he had already prepared four sets of materials and a hundred Wizard Crystals.
However, Jing Yan shook his head and said, "I can accept your commission, but to refine a batch of Dancing Crane Elixir, you’ll need to provide four sets of materials plus two hundred Wizard Crystals."
At this time, Jing Yan didn’t hesitate to raise the price.
The fee of four sets of materials and a hundred Wizard Crystals was too low.
Tu Xuan’s commission was charged this fee because there was no prior business. To open up the market, Jing Yan deliberately kept the rates low; now, it’s natural to increase the charges accordingly.
"What did you say?" The Great Witch cultivator’s expression changed immediately upon hearing Jing Yan’s words.
"Just now, you only asked for four sets of materials plus a hundred Wizard Crystals. Now you’re asking for two hundred Wizard Crystals?" The Great Witch cultivator expressed extreme dissatisfaction.
"Heh, I don’t want to explain too much. You should know whether this fee is high or not. If you can find another Pill Master to help you refine the Dancing Crane Elixir at this price, feel free to do so," Jing Yan said in a low voice.
"Damn it, are you extorting me?" The Great Witch cultivator’s face looked extremely unpleasant.
"If that’s how you perceive it, there’s nothing I can do," Jing Yan replied nonchalantly.
"But just now, Lady Tu Xuan commissioned you for alchemy, and you only charged a hundred Wizard Crystals." The Great Witch cultivator wanted to turn hostile on the spot, but seemed a bit apprehensive and suppressed his anger.
If he turns hostile on the spot, who would he find to help refine the Dancing Crane Elixir?
At Extreme Land Square, there might be some top Divine Pill Masters who can refine the Dancing Crane Elixir. However, those Divine Pill Masters would never guarantee success in alchemy.
Although the Witch Realm has a relatively abundant supply of Divine Grass materials, those required for refining the Dancing Crane Elixir are still quite scarce. Otherwise, Lady Tu Xuan wouldn’t have only presented twelve sets of materials for the Dancing Crane Elixir.
"Lady Tu Xuan was the first cultivator to commission me for alchemy, so of course she got a discount. Now, if you want to commission me, please pay the fee. If you don’t, please step aside," Jing Yan said dismissively.
At this time, many people behind this Great Witch cultivator were itching to try. Although many were disgruntled by Jing Yan’s fee increase, there were more who didn’t think it was expensive.
"Alright! Then I’ll trouble the Pill Master." The Great Witch cultivator reluctantly handed over another hundred Wizard Crystals, making it two hundred Wizard Crystals in total, and handed them to Mo Ku.
A month later, Jing Yan finally prepared to refine pills again.
During this month, nineteen cultivators commissioned Jing Yan to refine a total of twenty-six batches of various Divine Pills. The fees Jing Yan charged for alchemy, aside from the materials, were generally doubled from the initial rates. For instance, the Dancing Crane Elixir required two hundred Wizard Crystals, and the Dark Jade Flawless Pill required forty Wizard Crystals, etc.
Even though the fees had doubled, there were still many people commissioning Jing Yan for alchemy.
"Mo Ku, watch the stall. I’ll go to the Alchemy Room. I’ll be out in two to three months at most," Jing Yan instructed Mo Ku.
"Don’t worry, Master," Mo Ku replied.
Jing Yan, carrying a large amount of materials, entered the Alchemy Room for which he had previously purchased use time.
This time, far more cultivators were watching Jing Yan than before. Those who commissioned Jing Yan for alchemy wished they could watch him refine in person. At the end of the day, they still feared Jing Yan might abscond with the materials and Wizard Crystals.
Even though Jing Yan had already produced three Dark Jade Flawless Pills and three Dancing Crane Elixirs, there were still many who harbored doubts about him.
Time flew by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, two months had passed.
During these two months, Jing Yan refined various elixirs and distributed them according to the sequencing of the commissioning cultivators.
"This time, after releasing so many elixirs, it should completely dispel the last of those cultivators’ doubts, right?" Jing Yan muttered quietly as he stored away the Qiankun Pill Furnace in the Alchemy Room.
In a flash, he left the Alchemy Room and quickly returned to the alchemy stall at Extreme Land Square.
As soon as Jing Yan appeared, the cultivators who had been waiting for a long time immediately surrounded him. Those who had commissioned Jing Yan for alchemy stared at him with wide eyes.
"Pill Master, has the Nine-Pattern Tao Soul Pill I commissioned been refined?"
"Has my True Master Pill been successfully refined?"
These cultivators couldn’t wait any longer.
"Everyone, please don’t worry. I will distribute the elixirs to each of you in accordance with the order of your commissions," Jing Yan raised his voice slightly. Upon hearing this, the cultivators calmed down.
Jing Yan then took out the refined elixirs.
"Here are your three True Master Pills!"
"Here are your two Dark Jade Flawless Pills!"
"..."
Mo Ku distributed batch after batch of elixirs to the commissioning clients.
Upon inspecting the elixirs, these cultivators were almost ecstatic.
Seeing the elixirs Jing Yan had brought out, and knowing through inquiries that the elixirs were all flawless, these cultivators turned envious. One by one, they surged forward, eager to commission Jing Yan for more alchemy.
Jing Yan was pleased, but not everyone was.
The stall owners behind other alchemy stalls wore dark expressions, gnashing their teeth in envy. Their glares seemed intent on peeling Jing Yan’s skin off.
Jing Yan pretended not to see this—it was more important to earn Wizard Crystals.
In the past few days, there had been a flood of commissions for Jing Yan’s alchemy. After three or four days, the number of commissioning cultivators finally decreased.
One day, Tu Xuan came to the illustrious alchemy stall. Jing Yan handed over six Dancing Crane Elixirs to Tu Xuan.
"Pill Master, my father wishes to meet you. Do you have the time?" Tu Xuan asked with a gentle voice after receiving the elixirs.
Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
She knew that Tu Xuan’s father was the Clan Leader of the Tu Family. The Tu Family was among the top three five-star forces in the Shamanic Clouds Domain, an immensely powerful force.
Someone of such status wanted to meet her—should she accept or decline?
After pondering for a moment, Jing Yan slowly replied, "Lady Tu Xuan, to tell you the truth, my purpose for coming to Maoqiong Ridge this time is to enter the Extreme Land. Perhaps I could meet your father after I return from the Extreme Land."
