Chapter 29: The Auction (2)
Shen Yu listened to Lan Ming and nodded. She was right, he was the one who had a little flawed vision because of previous Shen Yu's memories. He was a Alchemist and pretty high rank at that and for someone like him, making a pill below High Grade was nothing but failure.
That's what affected Shen Yu and he showed contempt to the pill, well, he still didn't think it was anything good. He looked closely at the jade bottle of more precisely at the one yellow pill inside it which has three violet pattern on it and many black dots.
His eyes glistened as his fingers weaved in the empty air, then he clenched his fist as a medicinal arora filled their VIP room. Shen Yu nodded in satisfaction and looked at his hand which had two pure yellow coloured pills with five violet patterns on it. There was not even a hint of black dots on it.
It was flawless.
Lan Ming had her mouth wide open and her jaw almost dropped to the ground. She raised her trembling hand and pointed at the pill. She barely managed to say some words in her shock.
"A... Supreme Grade!!! Heavens!! How is that possible?"
She cried out in utter shock. She couldn't even believe what she was witnessing so she snatched the pills from Shen Yu's hand, not remembering any manners.
She inspected it from every angle and every method and gulped. Her eyes still held the immense surprise. She then closed her eyes as she took rapid breaths to calm herself.
She couldn't help herself. Even Mid-Grade Rank 3 pills were rare, not To mention High Grade. And this pill that Shen Yu had just made While casually sitting on his sofa was of Supreme Quality.
There were five Grades depending on the impurities in the pills. Starting from Low Grade which had 80% impurities, Mid-Grade had 60% impurities followed by High grade which had 40% impurities and finally the premium grade which had only 20% impurities. Above it was only one grade.
The Supreme Grade which basically meant having less than 10% impurities. Nobody believed that flawless pills existed because of the difficulty in concoction of pills.
Even the Major Sects rarely had Supreme Grade pills and even then they would be one with 10% pills. It was simply impossible to have flawless pills, especially in the higher ranks.
And Shen Yu had just produced a Rank 3 Supreme Grade flawless pill casually. Just how deep his knowledge was to concoct such a legendary pill. Just how powerful he was?
Now, the fire to have Shen Yu as her Ally burned even stronger than before. Lan Ming vowed to be on good terms with Shen Yu on any cost. After all, being powerful and having a high Cultivation base was one thing and being a High ranked Alchemist was another.
They were far more valuable than anyone. The Alchemist had the highest status among everyone. And Shen Yu was definitely The Top Alchemist in whole Qing Empire. If Lan Ming didn't try to be on good terms with him, she would be the biggest fool in Qing Empire.
Thinking of all that calmed Lan Ming a little down as she gave the pills back to Shen Yu and apologized.
"I apologise for my rash behaviour. It's just that i got too excited seeing such a legendary pill."
"Meh! No worries. You have already helped us a lot, Miss Lan. You don't need to stand on ceremony, we're pretty close, Aren't we?"
Shen Yu chuckled and waved his hand in dismiss. He was telling the truth. Although they only talked for a short time, he had a good impression of Lan Ming, regardless of her motives and didn't really care about small things. He was already planning to be on touch with her.
'She is in the Tier 2 Sect, right? It'll be very useful for us if she provided some guidance to us. Although I can get knowledge about how to manage the sect from my dear system, I don't really want to rely on it much.'
Shen Yu coughed slightly, finding this thoughts hypocritical but didn't think much into that. He then looked at Lan Ming who had calmed down and was nodded at him.
"You can take the pills. Take it as my gift for our first meeting. You said these pills are good even for Tier 2 Sects right? So please don't refuse."
Shen Yu said and added some more words seeing that she was going to refuse. Those pills held no value to him as he could produce them as much as wanted but they were good to build relationships.
Lan Ming opened her mouth but closed it hearing Shen Yu. She sighed and nodded, saying.
"Thanks for this, Master Shen. I'll deliver this to the Sect Master of our Sect. I'm sure even she will like to meet someone like you. I hope you don't mind if she suddenly paid a visit to you."
"Ah! No problem at all, I'll be happy to meet her."
Lan Ming flashed a bright smile in happiness. She looked at the two flawless pills in her hand and carefully stored them in the best jade bottle she had. She couldn't afford to have even a slight harm on them.
And it was actually good for her that Shen Yu had given her the pills. Now, she would show them to the Sect Master and she was sure even the Sect Master wouldn't be able to control herself from meeting such an esteemed person.
'Master Shen is really kind and generous.i would have never expected such a person to exist in this world.'
Now the position that Shen Yu held in Lan Ming's heart increased a lot. The first he created on her was by saving the slave girl and now because of the generosity.
"Bai Chen has bought the Foundation Establishment Pill."
Ying Yue spoke, looking at the VIP room opposite to them. Her eyes held nothing but pure disgust and she could barely controll herself from going to assassinate Bai Chen.
