Chapter 1078: Lowering the Price is Impossible

The beautiful woman is none other than the person in power of one of the Four Great Powers in the eastern region of Youzhou, the Master of the Sacred Palace.

Hearing Wen Tiansheng's voice, which revealed deep concern amidst its gentleness, the Master of the Sacred Palace subconsciously looked at the others present.

A faint blush appeared on her face, and she nodded gently at Wen Tiansheng, "After the last all-out battle between Great Vehicle stage cultivators, just over ten days ago, the Sea Clan's Great Vehicle stage cultivators mobilized in full force again; it was in that battle that I was injured."

Wen Tiansheng nodded, and with a flick of his finger, one of the two jade bottles in front of him slowly floated before the Master of the Sacred Palace.

"This is for you."

The Master of the Sacred Palace nodded lightly, "How much is it? I will pay you."

Wen Tiansheng shook his head with a smile, "Isn't it being too much of a stranger to say such things? It is a gift."

A flash of awkwardness crossed the Master of the Sacred Palace's face, but she did not refuse, nodding lightly.

"Daoist Friend Wen, I will buy the other one."

Seeing that only one Eighth-tier Pill remained, the rest of the group became somewhat restless.

The current war situation was becoming increasingly dire.

Perhaps one day, they, who were heavily injured, would have to enter the fray while still wounded.

In that case, the probability of falling would be quite high.

Recovering a step earlier meant one less point of danger; no one did not want to recover as soon as possible.

Following the first person's opening, immediately after, everyone else except Meng Shan also spoke up.

They wanted to purchase the other Green Jade Life-Prolonging Pill.

Hearing the eager purchase requests from the crowd, Wen Tiansheng smiled, "Everyone, do not be anxious. Before deciding who to sell the pill to, please take a look at my asking price first."

"After seeing the value of the pill, the first person to agree can obtain this remaining pill."

As he spoke, Wen Tiansheng took out the "price list" he had prepared in advance and distributed the Jade Slip containing the "price list" to the other seven people, excluding Meng Shan and the Master of the Sacred Palace.

The Master of the Sacred Palace did not receive a price list because she had already received the pill gifted by Wen Tiansheng.

As for Meng Shan, he was blatantly being treated differently.

His expression turned gloomy for a moment, then, as if thinking of something, he sneered.

The other seven people took the Jade Slip, and after checking the contents within,

they all widened their eyes.

"Wen Tiansheng, have you gone mad? You want this much?"

"This is practically daylight robbery!"

"Although Eighth-tier Pills are expensive, they are nowhere near this expensive; you are taking advantage of a crisis!"

Seeing the intense reaction from the crowd, the Master of the Sacred Palace was startled.

On the other side.

Meng Shan also became somewhat curious.

He asked the person beside him for the Jade Slip, and after checking it, he immediately revealed a mocking smile, "Wen Tiansheng, you are being far too greedy."

"This price is actually more than fifty percent higher than Master Ku's pills!"

"Don't tell me you really take all these Daoist Friends for fools?"

After Meng Shan's voice fell, one person nodded, "Exactly, Daoist Friend Wen, we are currently in a special period, a time when we must unite as one; we all have to make contributions to the war."

"Cut the price of the pill in half; that would be more reasonable."

"That's right, let's go with half price; I'll take this pill."

"Everyone, once one reaches the level of an Eighth-Rank Alchemist, who hasn't already formed their own system?"

"Every Alchemist has their own style of Alchemy; my friend here refines pills quickly, but the cost is that it consumes more raw materials."

"This price has already been calculated based on costs; it cannot be lowered any further."

Listening to the voices rising one after another, Wen Tiansheng's expression did not change in the slightest, and he said unhurriedly, "My Alchemist friend has a good heart, but they are not a fool."

"It is already benevolent enough that they are not earning a single cent of profit; do you all expect them to subsidize the resources themselves?"

Hearing Wen Tiansheng's words, one person in the crowd suddenly spoke up, "Daoist Friend Wen, that is where you are wrong. The survival of Youzhou concerns every living being upon it; all living beings in Youzhou have an obligation to contribute to Youzhou. What would it matter if your Alchemist friend even subsidized some resources? We..."

Before that person could finish, Wen Tiansheng looked at them sideways and interrupted their voice, "Daoist Friend Feng, I remember you have a Seven-Star Treasure Lotus on you, right? I happen to have reached a bottleneck, and if you give that Seven-Star Treasure Lotus to me, I am confident I can break through to the Great Vehicle Mid-Stage within a month."

"Now that Youzhou is in crisis, as a member of Youzhou, if I can break through my cultivation, I will definitely be able to make a greater contribution to Youzhou."

"With your high level of awareness, I assume you won't refuse, right?"

Hearing Wen Tiansheng's words, "Daoist Friend Feng"'s expression stiffened.

Seven-Star Treasure Lotus?

He indeed had one; this was no secret, and many Great Vehicle stage cultivators knew it.

But this Seven-Star Treasure Lotus was something he had obtained by chance, and it was incomparably precious.

It was a supreme treasure he had saved to use for breaking through to the Great Vehicle Mid-Stage once he reached the bottleneck of the Great Vehicle Early Stage.

How could he possibly be willing to take it out and give it to this scoundrel Wen Tiansheng?

He snorted coldly and turned his head to the side.

Seeing this, Wen Tiansheng sneered, "We are all thousand-year-old foxes; who are you trying to fool with that act?"

"Everyone, anyone can preach grand principles; go back and use them to trick your own juniors, but don't come here and make a fool of yourself in front of me."

"Want the pill? Fine..."

"Exchange it with enough resources."

"The conditions I stated earlier—not a single Medicinal Herb less."

Hearing Wen Tiansheng's words, the expressions of the crowd shifted one after another.

Inside the great hall, there was silence.

Everyone looked at Wen Tiansheng, none of them speaking.

Wen Tiansheng sneered inwardly.

Want to force his price down?

Not a chance!

If he really lowered the price, given the personality of that kid Wang Jianqiang, he would absolutely deduct it from his dividends.

How much in dividends did he even have?

How could he possibly lower the price?
