Chapter 924 The Value of Jingtian
Can you eat it?
Jingtian smiled.
If we take out some things in the small world, there are definitely many things that are as valuable as this imperial-grade elixir.
Thousand-year-old stone milk, monkey wine, and some rare mineral materials.
These things are of great value.
"As the intermediary, I can guarantee that if Master Jing fails in refining the elixir and cannot provide compensation, my Qian family will be responsible for the compensation."
When Jingtian was thinking about coming up with something to prove his ability, Qian Rong actually spoke first.
This is a serious matter.
Qian Rong said this, obviously she had great trust in Jingtian's ability.
This made Yang Dong's expression change drastically.
"Someone is scared and wants to go back on his word. I think he is afraid of losing, so he deliberately took out high-value treasures and wanted us to reject his bet!" Xuehua said in a sarcastic tone.
"Hmph, don't provoke this alchemist. Since you have taken it out, I will not take it back unless I receive double compensation." Yang Dong could hear the provocation from Xuehua, but jumped in anyway.
"Okay, since Master Yang has made his decision, I will put the things away. Whoever wins can come to me to collect the bet."
Qian Rong was not polite either. As she spoke, she put away the flying sword and the black token.
This is definitely a big gamble, and the one who actually benefits is the person seeking the elixir.
If Jingtian fails, he will receive four batches of Biluodan materials as compensation.
If Jingtian succeeds in refining the elixir, he will make a fortune, a golden elixir!
"I'm going to make the elixir. We'll know the result in an hour."
Jingtian put away the materials for the Biluo Dan and the Shenglong Flower, stood up and spoke.
"An hour?"
Jingtian's casual words caused a commotion again.
If a senior alchemist is refining a low-level or even mid-level elixir, it is understandable that it would take an hour.
But what is being refined now is the golden elixir!
"Okay, you said an hour. If it takes more than one minute, you lose even if you succeed!" Mad Dog Yang Dong directly confirmed Jingtian's words.
Jingtian curled his lips and ignored the mad dog. He would cry soon.
After all, if those two treasures were lost, he couldn't remain indifferent even with the strength behind him, right?
It is still Alchemy Room No. 88.
Jingtian can't use an ordinary alchemy furnace this time.
Although Jingtian is full of confidence when he is outside, he is actually not 100% sure.
Therefore, he not only had to use the alchemy fire and alchemy furnace, but also had to simulate the refining of the golden elixir in advance.
When Jingtian entered the alchemy room, the entire market town seemed to be quiet. Almost everyone put down what they were doing and waited for time to pass.
Qian Rong did not wait in the alchemy room. Instead, after giving some instructions to her subordinates, she went to the stall management office.
Old Man Qian’s office.
"Grandfather, do you know what happened?"
After Qian Rong entered the room, she knelt down directly in front of the drunken old man Qian.
"Rong girl, you are a good child in every way, but you are too obedient. I told you not to kneel when you see me, so stand up and talk."
Old Man Qian looked at Qian Rong who was kneeling on the ground and said helplessly.
"Yes, ancestor." Qian Rong stood up quickly.
"I basically know what's going on. I didn't expect that I was wrong. That little guy has actually reached the level of a ninth-grade alchemist. What a monster!" Old man Qian sighed and took another sip of wine.
"Ancestor, are you saying that he really has reached the ninth-grade alchemist level?" Qian Rong exclaimed.
"Haven't you believed it a long time ago? Otherwise, why would you take such a big risk? The Black Pill Order is no small matter. Even if the Qian family pays for it, it will hurt." Old Man Qian looked at Qian Rong and said.
"This...yeah, I don't know why, but when I saw how confident he was, I actually trusted him in my heart." Qian Rong only then realized that she had indeed trusted Jingtian from the very beginning.
This is a very unscientific thing and there is no logic to it.
"That boy is no ordinary man. Let me see the Black Pill Order." Old Man Qian said to Qian Rong.
Qian Rong quickly handed the black token to Old Man Qian.
"It is indeed true without a doubt. It seems that Yang Dong's identity is not just as simple as the young master of a small sect." After taking a look at the black token, Old Man Qian put it away.
"Grandfather, you..."
Qian Rong didn't expect that the ancestor would actually take the token away. What if Jingtian wins or loses and who wants the token?
"Don't worry, this token must belong to Jingtian. Just tell him that it's with me. I must let this boy join the Qian family. When you go back, tell Qian Feng that he must make friends with this boy no matter what the cost." said old man Qian.
"Ah? Ancestor, is he worthy of our Qian family doing this?" Qian Rong was shocked.
Originally, the Qian family wanted to recruit a talented alchemist like Jingtian, but there was no need to mobilize so many troops for Jingtian, right?
"If he becomes the first place in the Alchemist Competition this time, do you think he deserves this treatment?" asked Old Man Qian .
"What? Grandpa, do you think he can get first place in the competition? That's impossible. The first place has already been reserved!" Qian Rong was shocked again.
Apparently, there is some inside story behind the medicine competition.
"What's wrong with the reservation? It will be a real competition. With the supervision of the higher-ups in the Central Region, they won't dare to cheat. The one who is scheduled to be the first is only a ninth-grade alchemist. I believe that as long as Jingtian can enter the competition smoothly, he will get the first place 90% of the time." Old Man Qian said confidently.
"This... If this is really the case, wouldn't Danzong be furious? The reward this time is no small matter!" Qian Rong's face turned a little red.
It's exciting.
The Qian, Qin and Li families control Danhuang City. On the surface, they are at odds with Danzong, but in fact, their conflict is much more serious than that.
Although the Qian, Qin and Li families don't seem to get along on the surface, they are actually doing it for the Dan Sect to see. Deep down, they have big ambitions.
It would be really important for them if they could win the first place in the Alchemist Competition this time.
They had already selected the contestants, but they were only aiming for the top ten!
"Go, it's too early to say anything now. Everything has to wait until the golden elixir is refined." Old Man Qian waved his hand and said to Qian Rong.
"I believe he will succeed." Qian Rong said firmly this time.
Obviously she was also trying to increase her confidence.
Jingtian’s role is really too important. The Qian family has been planning for thousands of years, and the opportunity may lie in Jingtian.
Such an existence is indeed worthy of the three families in Danhuang City to put in their best efforts.
