Chapter 321: You wouldn't want this alchemist either
Just a few seconds after it rang, the person on the other side answered the call.
"Ah, it's you, little brother! How come you have time to call me late at night?"
The voice of Niutou Mianju sounded, filled with surprise and anticipation.
Two days ago was the beginning of the month, and he, as usual, appeared in the Black Market.
On one hand he was trading with others; on the other hand, when he hoped to meet Jiang Cheng, he wanted to ask when he would give him the content of the latter two chapters.
Because of that Heavenly Martial Leg Technique, he actually recited the complete content.
As a result, naturally he didn't meet him.
He intended to call Jiang Cheng to ask, but he was also afraid of angering the latter; after all, neither side knew the other's identity, and if Jiang Cheng really acted rogue, there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, the Visualization Method he obtained from Jiang Cheng was indeed genuine and popular; even though he priced the Introductory Chapter at two hundred thousand, he sold nearly ten copies.
"Bro, of course it's to fulfill the original deal."
Jiang Cheng smiled.
A person without trust cannot stand.
Moreover, a complete Lotus Visualization Method costs just over a million, so there's really no need to break a promise over such a small sum.
"Ah!"
Hearing that, Niutou Mianju slapped his thigh, too excited to contain himself.
"I knew you, little brother, aren't someone who breaks their word! I wasn't wrong about you! By the way, little brother, have you gotten the remaining two chapters?"
"For now only the Great Completion Chapter; the final Perfect Chapter may still require some more waiting."
"No problem, no problem!"
Niutou Mianju hurriedly said, "Bro, I have nothing else, but plenty of time! Waiting is fine, so little brother, just tell me the content of the Great Completion Chapter first."
"Alright."
Jiang Cheng didn't waste words either and quickly relayed the content to the latter.
Niutou Mianju promptly thanked him, and seemed to want to chat a few more sentences with Jiang Cheng to deepen their rapport.
However, Jiang Cheng declined, saying he had other matters.
After hanging up, Jiang Cheng looked at the number on his phone.
Once he tells the other side the Perfect Chapter, the deal will be fully completed, and keeping this number won't be of much use.
Indeed, the counterpart possesses a fair amount of Earth Martial, but Jiang Cheng now focuses his main energy on refining the Shadowless Blade Technique; if he truly completes that refinement, he would also choose the same Heaven Martial or purchase a higher-grade one, since being in the Black Market makes buying these much easier.
As for using the counterpart as a channel for selling pills,
Jiang Cheng thought it over and rejected the idea.
First, an extra middleman would cut his profit by a point.
Second, given the counterpart's finances, he probably couldn't afford much.
Considering everything, going directly to the Black Market to find buyers is the most cost-effective.
Anyway, whether the buyers are Force Warriors or Spiritual Thought Masters, spiritual pills are necessities; Black Market pills, due to auctioning, cannot be much lower than market price even if discounted.
If he sells them at a 10% discount off market price, they still sell very well.
Regarding safety, being within the Black Market still offers protection; as for that Spiritual Grandmaster, as long as the one-time pill sale isn't large, it shouldn't attract attention.
But there is also a chance of encountering a Black Market alchemist.
Although he would wear a mask, his aura remains unchanged; if they saw him at the Alchemy Workshop, that would be problematic.
After all, the Black Market strictly forbids alchemists from selling refined pills, even those made from ingredients they purchased themselves, because it's hard to distinguish which pills were crafted from Black Market-supplied materials and which from personal purchases; it all depends on a single word.
At that point, he might be merely threatened by the other side; this alchemist, you wouldn't want to…
In the worst case, he would directly inform Yang Chun Gu Zhangkong, and that would be awkward. Suddenly, a flash of insight struck his mind; he tapped his phone and entered a chat group.
It was precisely that chat group formed by Spiritual Thought Masters, whose members were basically not from the Black Market.
"What if I sell the surplus pills to them?"
Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up at the thought.
These people have an even greater demand for spiritual pills and there's no worry of exposure.
But the safety isn't as high.
After all, in private deals, who knows what the other side is scheming; they might have no money at all, just waiting to pull a wolf with empty hands.
"There truly are no perfect things in this world; let's wait until we accumulate enough pills before proceeding."
Jiang Cheng shook his head, a bit helpless.
His intuition told him that those fifth- and sixth-level alchemists might have similar channels, but learning this from the other side would be difficult.
After a night of cultivation, the next day Jiang Cheng, escorted by the Ninth-level Force Warrior, arrived at the Lian Dan Shi.
He plans to wait a couple of days before addressing the Spiritual Power Breakthrough; for now he'll keep refining in six or seven furnaces, using the excess Spiritual Power to practice Secret Martial Arts.
And today, in the Lian Dan Shi where Shen Ming is, a newcomer also appeared.
He was a sunny, cheerful young man, appearing to be in his early twenties, with very white teeth and a pleasant smile.
Upon entering, he instantly won the favor of the only woman in the Lian Dan Shi; Han Tao and another man looked a bit displeased, seeing the guy as just a pretty boy.
"Old Shen, newcomer, take care of him."
Yang Chun smiled, just as he had when he led Jiang Cheng in earlier.
"No problem, Yang Zhuguan."
Shen Ming nodded and bowed.
His gaze fell on the newcomer; he was about to put on a pretentious act, but suddenly recalled a previous incident and swallowed the words he was about to say.
After all, who knows if this person in front of him is another genius? "Kid, what's your name, what level Spiritual Thought Master are you?"
"Brother Shen, I'm Ge Xiaotian, a Level Three Spiritual Thought Master."
The young man said with a smile.
"What a coincidence, I'm also a Level 3 Spirit Mind Practitioner." The woman beside him said with a smile.
"Really?"
Ge Xiaotian showed a hint of surprise on his face, "Then I'll have to trouble you, older sister, to look after me more—I've just arrived and don't know anything."
"No problem, no problem, we're both newcomers, helping each other is only natural." The woman smiled even more happily.
"Cough, cough."
Han Tao coughed once beside them.
He recalled that the latter had never appeared this happy before him; even when he took the initiative to seek him out, he only asked how to refine alchemy.
"A Level 3 Spirit Mind Practitioner, not bad."
Shen Ming nodded, "Just before you arrived, a newcomer was only a Level 1 Spirit Mind Practitioner; in just five or six days, he went from being an outsider to a Level 2 Alchemy Master. You are a Level 3 Spirit Mind Practitioner—you certainly have this potential."
He wished there were more people like Jiang Cheng.
As for these three people before him, there's no need to say more.
A flash of unusual color passed through Ge Xiaotian's eyes, and he immediately showed an expression of shock.
"What? There are still people this amazing?"
