Chapter 119 - 113: Danxia Chamber of Commerce! Buying Elixirs!

If it weren’t for his first time in the County City and his insufficient foundation, what Yuan Yong would have lost at this moment would definitely not have been just his palm, but his head! Jiang Shu’s battle saber was blood-stained, yet he did not strike again. His weakness is still too apparent. The saber technique consists of merely three forms; once this Qu knows the variations, it will be very difficult to suppress him again. "My palm!" Yuan Yong cupped his severed hand and growled, looking at Jiang Shu, his eyes full of horror and resentment. "Big Brother! Kill him! Kill him!" He didn’t even dare pick up his severed hand from the ground, retreating backward while shouting. But Qu Zhanyun was clearly not going to lose his senses. One was the young miss from the Zhang Family. The other was a young Martial Artist, no less strong than himself, whose background was unknown. The webbing of his hand is numb as he grips his saber, yet he has no intention of striking. This time, he has misjudged! If he had just left with his brothers from the start, perhaps his brother’s hand would not have been severed by the battle saber! In his heart, there was regret and anger. Taking a deep breath, he said, "Let’s go." In Yongning County City, unless it involved life and death, the authorities would not intervene easily. Moreover, at this moment, one of them came from the Zhang Family, and the other from the Yao Family. For a mere severed hand, the authorities would only try to smooth things over. "Big Brother!" "Let’s go!" Holding his saber and facing Jiang Shu directly, Qu Zhanyun led his four brothers in a slow retreat. This time, he has suffered a setback. But that doesn’t mean this matter is over! After joining the Yao Family, he even specifically learned a saber technique, but as it has been a short time, he has not yet reached entry-level. Once he has cultivated that saber technique to Great Success... Upon meeting this young man again, the young man will undoubtedly die! In his eyes, the intent to kill flickered. During the battle, the young man had figured out his foundation, and had he not done the same to the young man? It seemed like the young man had steadily suppressed him, but he too had noticed that the young man’s saber technique lacked variation; the most he could execute was, surprisingly, only thirteen forms of the saber technique. This detail directly proved that the young man is not as strong as he appears on the surface. Nor would he be from a prominent clan! Only those few fierce forms of the saber technique are formidable; perhaps he obtained them through some fortuitous encounter. If he truly wants to leave, this young man surely cannot stop him! The five people left. The air in the venue still carried a faint smell of blood. Many customers were also heading downstairs. Soon, only Jiang Shu and Zhang Ruo remained. "Thank you," Zhang Ruo spoke, her voice as faint as a mosquito’s buzz. She truly had not expected that Jiang Shu, in the end, would stand up for her, directly severing Yuan Yong’s hand. While this was certainly satisfying, Jiang Shu had also definitely made an enemy of the Yao Family’s Gold Medal Retainer on her account. In the County City, because of her, he had made a powerful enemy for himself. "Brother Shang, why don’t you join our Zhang Family? With your strength, you could definitely become a Gold Medal Retainer, and then you wouldn’t need to fear the Yao Family’s retainer resorting to any treacherous schemes." "No need. Let’s go to the Danxia Chamber of Commerce instead." The battle saber returned to its sheath. From the window, Jiang Shu could see the five men leaving, his eyes narrowing slightly. This time, with my strength revealed, no one from the Yao Family can stop me. Not even several Martial Artists at the Peak of the Bone Forging Realm could do so, unless they find someone from the Refining Internal Realm! And if that Gold Medal Retainer harbors thoughts of seeking revenge after improving his strength... Then, in terms of Realm improvement, he, Jiang Shu, has never feared anyone! Waiting for that Qu Zhanyun’s strength to improve? I might have already directly reached the Refining Internal Realm by then! When that time comes, it’s uncertain who will be looking for whom! "Alright." Seeing Jiang Shu decisively refuse, showing no interest in joining the Zhang Family, Zhang Ruo lowered her head and led him towards the Danxia Chamber of Commerce. Although she had never been here before, she had heard her young lady friends speak of it more than once, so the journey was quite smooth. 「Danxia Chamber of Commerce!」 Pavilions were interconnected, adorned with carved beams and painted rafters. A six-story pavilion, it was extremely conspicuous in this area. Outside the building, two formally dressed Maids stood quietly, neither actively soliciting customers outside nor fawning over those who entered. They were like ornamental vases, offering only a faint smile. Beside the Maids stood Martial Artists in tight-fitting attire with surging qi and blood, their gazes sharp and fierce. The interior of the Chamber of Commerce was very spacious. It was not as luxurious as Jiang Shu had imagined. It was all simply furnished, resembling the minimalist style of his previous world. The layout of the areas was also extremely clear. The first floor catered to Skin Grinding Realm Martial Artists. The goods on the shelves were mostly samples of variant beast meat. If a Martial Artist made a purchase and the Chamber of Commerce had it in stock, they would immediately provide it. If not, it would be prepared within a certain period. The second floor had sections for more common, Low-grade Martial Arts. The third floor held the very best Low-grade Martial Arts, specially crafted weapons, and some basic Elixirs. Jiang Shu and Zhang Ruo toured the first and second floors before heading to the third floor. Leopard Strength Tiger Bone Pill! Small Rejuvenation Pill! Marching Pill! Blood Purifying Pill! Blood Strengthening Pill! Upon reaching the third floor, there was a row of cabinets filled with Elixirs! Jiang Shu paused at the Blood Purifying Pill and Blood Strengthening Pill. For him, the effects of these two Elixirs would not be significant. His qi and blood have already reached the Peak of this stage. As for the effect of the Blood Purifying Pill, which is to cleanse the body of filth and toxic impurities, purifying flesh and blood... To him, it also seemed rather useless. Once he steps into the Refining Internal Realm, when inner force refines the organs, the detoxification effect will be countless times better than Elixirs! The reason he lingered was that he was thinking about bringing these two types of Elixirs back to his original world. His parents are getting old and aren’t enthusiastic about Martial Arts. Although he exchanged for quite a bit of Blood Flower Pig meat from the academy, they haven’t learned the Hungry Tiger Breathing Method, and their digestive ability can’t compare to his. Their daily food intake is insufficient, so the improvement in their qi and blood is naturally ordinary. If they switch to using the Blood Purifying Pill and Blood Strengthening Pill in the future, reaching a major circulation of qi and blood throughout their bodies will only be a matter of time. Then he can teach them a Low-grade Cultivation Technique. The Martial Dao of Xuanxing requires Talent and the comprehension of Manifested Energy. But the Cultivation Techniques of this world don’t require that; as long as he spends a bit more time, he can teach his parents enough to reach entry-level. There is always a chance for the Skin Grinding Realm. If the Skin Grinding Realm is reached, can the Refining Internal Realm be far behind? Once his strength improves, by exchanging resources between the Two Realms and piling them up, he can surely make them achieve it! As for his sister, Jiang Yanyue, her Talent is decent. With the aid of these two Elixirs, she could step into the Manifested Energy stage during her high school years. Xuanxing... it’s unknown how it will change. With his loved ones possessing martial skills, he will, after all, feel considerably more at ease. "If I buy in bulk, is there any discount available?" Jiang Shu waved, and a formally dressed Maid approached from nearby. "Hello, at our Danxia Chamber of Commerce, each type of Elixir is categorized by quality into ordinary, superior, and high-grade. If a customer is interested, for ordinary quality Elixirs, purchasing one hundred will grant approximately a twenty percent discount." "Superior quality Elixirs, when bought in bulk, can enjoy a ten percent discount." "High-grade Elixirs are strictly non-negotiable." The Maid spoke clearly, neither humbly nor arrogantly. Clearly, she had recited this speech to numerous Martial Artists before.
