Chapter 405

Lin Meng was very pleased with Chief Li's decision; he is a smart leader, also very decisive and far-sighted, neither pedantic nor arbitrary.

With Chief Li's support, Lin Meng's side can also save a lot of trouble.

Lin Meng thought for a moment and then said to Chief Li:

"As for the Opening Aperture Pill matter, I will personally bring the elixir to the military district for a visit in a few days."

"As for these three potted plants, when the time comes to deliver the elixir, I'll send them over together; what do you think?"

Lin Meng finished speaking, Chief Li immediately nodded and said excitedly:

"Good, good, good, then this old man will await the good news, Little Friend Lin, you must come; this old man will not disturb you today, you all continue chatting."

Chief Li having achieved his goal, he got up and left; firstly, he was busy with affairs and didn't have much personal time; secondly, he saw that they were a family, and having an extra outsider would be redundant, so it was better for him to sensibly take his leave.

Old Master Ye also didn't try to keep him; after seeing Chief Li off, he and Lin Meng chatted easily.

Speaking of elixirs, Old Master Ye couldn't help but say:

"Girl, that Jade Marrow Pill, are you planning to make it public now?"

Last time attending the tea party organized by Zhu Zhen Guo, that old brat, he had already noticed that Lin Meng did not intend to hide the elixir.

Lin Meng heard this and nodded.

"Indeed, but I have no intention of lowering the price of the elixir, after all I actually don't have much stock on hand."

One cannot casually tell others; her elixir can be bought from anyone without limit.

After all, it is a heaven-defying elixir from the Tian Gang Continent; selling it on a small scale should pose no problem, and the heavenly laws turning a blind eye is fine.

But if it were to be popularized now and the price actively lowered, that would cause chaos.

Lin Meng is not some great saint who could be selfless enough to bestow blessings equally upon all the world's beings.

The elixir is originally something only she can trade across worlds; she can handle it however she wishes.

Old Master Ye heard this and nodded; the elixir belongs to Lin Meng, so it should be handled by her, but after thinking he still reminded:

"Now many powerful people know of the elixir's existence; its effects are truly heaven-defying, to exaggerate a bit, it's almost like an immortality elixir, so it's inevitable that some will covet it; beware of shameless villains, and if you run into trouble, be sure to tell Grandfather."

"Although the Ye Family is a merchant clan, we still have the means and confidence to protect you."

"If anyone dare threaten or even harm you, just come to the Ye Family and we will protect you!"

Ye Chenjing beside him said nothing, but his gaze already explained everything.

For Lin Meng, he could risk his life.

Lin Meng naturally felt warm inside, but she wasn't afraid; possessing a supreme treasure naturally invites envy, but it also depends on whether the other party has the ability to seize it.

"Grandfather Ye, rest assured; since I dare do this, I have confidence I won't be threatened."

Old Master Ye nodded; after dealing with her for so long, he had gradually figured out this little girl's temperament and ability, so he thought there shouldn't be any problem.

Ye Chenyu beside him had never gotten a chance to speak, but now he finally seized the opportunity, rushing to Lin Meng's face with a pleading expression.

"Lin Meng, Grandfather and Elder Brother both have elixir to eat; what about mine?"

Ye Chenyu crouched beside Lin Meng, rubbing his hands hard, trying to gain a bit of alms from her with an innocent, pitiful look.

Old Master Ye couldn't help but kick him with his leg, speaking angrily:

"You little brat, your skin's itching again; after finally behaving a bit lately, you're starting to act up again, huh?"

Ye Xiangrong naturally wouldn't truly ignore Ye Chenyu, but this monkey-like grandson's body is quite healthy, with a thorough physical examination report showing excellence in all aspects.

It's probably because he usually does nothing but eat and sleep, then play carefree without worries, needing to bear no responsibility or pressure, which instead made him the healthiest in the family.

Therefore, if Lin Meng's given Jade Marrow Pill were given to him to eat, it would simply be a waste, so Old Master Ye did not give it.

At this moment, Ye Chenjing also furrowed his brow, looking helplessly at Ye Chenyu.

The Opening Aperture Pill was given by Lin Meng, and it was never said it could be given to Ye Chenyu, so Ye Chenjing did not make any arbitrary decision.

Furthermore, his younger brother is still not mature enough; if he were allowed to take the Opening Aperture Pill, he would surely show off in front of his fox-like friends.

To avoid Ye Chenyu causing trouble, Ye Chenjing's taking of the Opening Aperture Pill has been kept secret from him.

Ye Chenyu covered his buttocks that had been kicked painfully by Old Master Ye, but instead of getting up, he continued to look at Lin Meng with a wronged expression.

"Lin Meng, look how pitiful I am; Grandfather doesn't love me, Elder Brother doesn't care for me, I can only hope for you."

Lin Meng raised an eyebrow and said teasingly:

"Hope in me? I remember when I first came to your Ye family, you were quite unfriendly toward me and even called me a country bumpkin."

Ye Chenyu hearing this immediately gave a bitter smile; he knew this matter would eventually be brought up by Lin Meng.

If I had known she was this formidable, I shouldn't have shown up at the old residence back then; then my blabbering mouth wouldn't have spoken nonsense.

Ye Chenyu wore a bitter gourd face, looking hopefully at Lin Meng, yet unable to defend himself in a hundred ways.

Seeing this, Lin Meng couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore, but I can't directly give you the elixir; I'll give it to your elder brother, and you can take it together with him."

Saying this, Lin Meng took out a bottle of Opening Aperture Pill and handed it to Ye Chenjing, instructing:

"There are ten in total here; you decide how to distribute them yourself."

"The elixir is after all a medicine, and also a medicine for strengthening muscles and bones; there's no need to take it every day, you can take it according to training intensity."

Lin Meng knew that during this period Ye Chenjing had been constantly training his body.

However, the Opening Aperture Pill is after all a mundane pill; it cannot let one completely transform, and its effect is also limited.

If taken over a long period, one will eventually suffer pill poisoning, which is not worth the loss.

Ye Chenjing kept this in mind and carefully put away the porcelain bottle.

In fact, during this period he also discovered that although the Opening Aperture Pill is heaven-defying, its effect on transforming the human body is limited.

These past few days he has clearly felt that the elixir he took seems not as effective as before.

After all, he is merely a mortal flesh body; even if one tries to stimulate potential, there is a limit.

After Lin Meng had a hearty lunch with the Ye family members, she then followed Ye Chenjing back to the hillside villa.

Ye Chenjing still had a lot of things to attend to, so they left first.

Lin Meng returned to the villa and sorted out all the elixirs in the space.

If all eight hundred Aperture-Clearing Pills were supplied to the military, it would still be a drop in the bucket.

However, this elixir is inherently heaven-defying, and rarity makes it precious.

In a short time, it's impossible to give every soldier one, and there's no need to do so.

The modern world is far less dangerous than the cultivation world, the Fe Tu Shi Jie, or the strange world.

Here, being able to assemble a small but extremely strong force is already enough.

Looking ahead, Lin Meng still hopes to see spiritual energy revive in this world.

But this step will be extremely difficult; she must start by establishing a cultivation academy and plan step by step.
