"Master, this Daoist friend would like to discuss cooperation! He says that we have a turning point," the middle-aged chubby man said with a light cough.
The woman did not turn her head and retorted, "This Daoist friend, a hundred years ago, my Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion collaborated with over a hundred forces, supported by over ten thousand masters of the Loose Cultivator Pill Artifact Array. It can be said that they were the backbone of our Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Yet now, they have all left."
"Do you think you, or the force behind you, can match those hundred forces? Or rival those ten thousand masters?"
Li Cheng, gazing at the woman's back, laughed, "Both can!"
Hmm?
The woman turned around, appearing a zhang away from Li Cheng. Her exquisitely beautiful face was full of astonishment as she sized up Li Cheng, "The predicament that the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion is in now is because we offended the Hunting Emperor Sect. If you want to cooperate with us, then you're making an enemy of the Hunting Emperor Sect."
"Are you, or the force behind you, certain about this course of action?"
Li Cheng's smile did not fade, "If there are benefits, why care about whom we make enemies with."
A gleam sparkled in the woman's autumn-water-like eyes. Was the strength behind Li Cheng not inferior to the Hunting Emperor Sect?
Yet forces that were not weaker than the Hunting Emperor Sect were few. The woman had no clue as to which force would want to support them.
Contemplating, the woman gave a formal bow, "May I ask your name?"
"Deputy Gate Leader of Chaotic Yuan Gate, Li Cheng!"
Upon hearing this, the woman's expression instantly turned extremely odd. "The Chaotic Yuan Gate that was destroyed by the Carefree Palace ten thousand years ago? I heard it too was because of offending the Hunting Emperor Sect, but the Hunting Emperor Sect deemed it below them to do the deed themselves.
They merely expressed the wish to eradicate the Chaotic Yuan Gate, and the Carefree Palace executed the task."
"Misery loves company! But when it comes to cooperation…" the woman shook her head with a self-deprecating smile, "Are you inviting me to join the Chaotic Yuan Gate? To seek revenge together?"
Meanwhile, the middle-aged chubby man sighed. Is this the so-called turning point?
He had thought some major power had secretly sent a representative to discuss supporting the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion.
What they got was a visit from the deputy gate leader of a sect that had been destroyed...
Li Cheng was not in a hurry and cupped his fists, "May I ask for your esteemed name?"
The woman waved her hand, "I am Luoxia, a mere lady. The Hunting Emperor Sect is not a force we can contend with. I advise you as well to dissuade yourself from that thought."
Li Cheng laughed, "Pavilion Master Luoxia, you asked if I could rival those hundreds of forces or the ten thousand masters. I said I could, both!"
"When I dare to say this, I naturally mean it seriously. In the future, you provide the materials to the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion, no matter how many, and I will transform them into goods for sale that same day, and at no lower quality."
Luoxia looked at Li Cheng with an odd expression, "Could it be that you have a host of masters skilled in the three ways of Pills, Artifacts, and Arrays hidden in the Divine World?"
Li Cheng was speechless. She really guessed it.
"Words are futile. A skinny camel is still larger than a horse, Pavilion Master Luoxia. You must have quite a few Divine Pill materials in hand, right? Give them to me, and you'll understand immediately," said Li Cheng.
If he claimed he could refine in bulk, they certainly would not believe him, so he might as well demonstrate right there.
After all, his Complete cultivation in Divine Emperor's Realm was not impressive in their eyes, so they need not worry about him just trying to scam materials.
More convinced of her guess, Luoxia waved her hand and tens of thousands of ingredients for level seven Divine Pills floated in the air, and then she looked curiously at Li Cheng.
Without further words, Li Cheng clasped his hands behind his back and looked up. Then the Divine Medicines began to be refined!
Luoxia and Wang Cai exchanged glances, both seeing the intense surprise in each other's eyes. Was this... the beginning of alchemy?
In just a few breaths, tens of thousands of Divine Medicines had turned into Essence Medicine Liquid, and soon after, it surged like a torrent. In the swirling motion, they evenly condensed into embryonic forms of pills!
Next, the pill embryos began to rapidly spin, and as they spun, they gradually solidified into plump Divine Pills!
In no more than the time it takes for a cup of tea to brew, over a hundred thousand level seven Divine Pills had appeared!
With a wave of his hand, those Divine Pills floated to their side, and only then did Li Cheng say, "Please have a look."
Luoxia and Wang Cai were still in shock, staring at the hundred thousand or so Divine Pills in disbelief. These were level seven Divine Pills that had been refined so mysteriously right before their very eyes?
"Hiss! Master... they are all at least top-grade quality, and there are over two thousand King Grade ones!" Wang Cai's eyes bulged, disbelieving what he saw.
Luoxia was no better off, her lips parted slightly, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
"How is that possible? Even the Three Arts Alliance doesn't possess pill skills so miraculous!"
Finally, Luoxia snapped back to reality, looking at Li Cheng in astonishment.
Li Cheng's face was adorned with a smile, "Can we talk about cooperation now?"
Luoxia steadied her heart and her incomparably beautiful face filled with intense anticipation, "With your Pill Skill, you should have become famous in the Supreme Realm long ago, and the Chaotic Yuan Gate wouldn't have perished. It seems you must come from a certain Divine Realm, right?"
"And with your Pill Skill, the Three Arts Alliance would certainly be falling over themselves to get you, but there has been no movement from them. You're coming to me for collaboration; are you trying to use me to recruit powerhouses?"
"I suddenly see hope. If you give your full support, within a million years, we're sure to recruit many enough..."
"Stop right there!" Li Cheng waved his hand, the Pavilion Master was guessing a bit too much, thinking too far ahead.
"Pavilion Master Luoxia need not inquire about my intentions; let's just focus on the cooperation!" said Li Cheng.
Luoxia nodded thoughtfully, "My Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion provides the materials, you refine the Divine Pills, and we split the profits fifty-fifty after sales. What do you say?"
Li Cheng didn't care about the profits because he never lacked for Divine Stones.
Seeing Li Cheng's silence, Luoxia added, "Or how about sixty-forty? Sixty for you, forty for me; I can't go any lower."
Li Cheng looked at Luoxia, "I don't care about the profits, fifty-fifty is fine, but I need you to provide a large amount of materials for the Pill Artifact Array."
"The Pill Artifact Arrays I refine will be sold under the name of Deputy Gate Leader Li Cheng of the Chaotic Yuan Gate."
Hardened by Luoxia's realization, "I see, you want to make a name for yourself in the Supreme Realm?"
With a reputation, many things would become convenient, such as recruiting strong fighters!
Luoxia understood that Li Cheng intended to use this method for revenge!
Seeing Luoxia deep in thought, Li Cheng did not know what she was thinking, but it didn't matter, because the cooperation with the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion probably wouldn't last long. The pavilion was just a stepping stone.
Seeking out the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion was also just a case of good timing.
"Think whatever you like, but those are my terms. If you're willing, we start cooperating right now," Li Cheng stated.
With a wave of her hand, Luoxia brought a contract aglow with light, which appeared before the two.
Luoxia was the first to imprint her Soul Seal onto it, looking expectantly at Li Cheng, "I truly don't know how to thank you."
Li Cheng looked over the contract and imprinted his own Soul Seal, "Seeking your Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion was a happy coincidence, partly because of your flood of positive reviews. I just hope you won't disappoint me in the future."
Luoxia smiled, "Just you wait and see. How could I disappoint you when a feeble woman like me has stood for millions of years right under the noses of the Three Arts Alliance?"
After saying this, she stowed away the Grade Seven Divine Pills, her gaze shifting to Wang Cai, "Wang Cai, gather the scattered staff and reopen for business!"
Wang Cai, moved with excitement, his plump belly trembling slightly, "Master, I'll go right now!"
As Wang Cai departed, Luoxia took a deep, relieved breath and suddenly, as if she had remembered something, hastily turned to Li Cheng, "You just mentioned the Pill Artifact Array?"
Gradually, Luoxia's expression became astounded, "You mean, you're not only a miraculous Pill Skill practitioner but also equally skilled in Alchemy and Formations?"
Li Cheng stroked his chin, "It seems that's what I said, but then again, maybe I overstated it a bit."
"Huh?" Luoxia let out a sigh of relief, chuckling, "If your Pill Skill is already so amazing, and your Artifact Refining and Formation skills are on the same level, that would truly be unfathomable—even frightening."
"Artifact Refining is doable, but Formations are different, whether it's"
