Martial Master

Regarding this, Qin Chen certainly wouldn't mind, after all, he was also an alchemist, and spiritual medicine was just ready-made pills for him.

But the key was that the royal-grade pills were still far from enough. Combined, the few of them had less than twenty pills, which was still a long way from the required fifty pills.

"We only have these pills on us," Huang Dongsheng gritted his teeth and said.

He had already taken out everything valuable from his storage ring, but it was still not enough. Qin Chen smiled and said, "Don’t you have any in your shops? I heard that the Huang family has several shops in this pill market. A reputable Huang family shop wouldn’t possibly sell none of the royal-grade pills, right?"

In a prestigious family shop like the Huang family, there must be royal-grade pills for sale; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to operate so grandly in the Pill City.

Puff! Huang Dongsheng and the others were almost fainting from anger; this was clearly denying them any chance of survival.

With a quick thought, Huang Dongsheng said, "Naturally, we have them in our Huang family's shop, but I need to go personally."

"No way!" Qin Chen shook his head and pointed to a burly man from the Huang family and said, "Let him go."

He knew Huang Dongsheng's little thoughts too well; as soon as he let the other party leave, who would go get the pills? They would surely send a message to the Alchemy Pavilion's backend, which would inevitably lead to a lot of trouble.

"That's impossible," Huang Dongsheng shook his head, "Royal-grade pills can only be accessed by elder-level members; he’s just a guard and wouldn’t be recognized by the person in charge."

"Elder, huh!" Qin Chen rubbed his chin, "That’ll do, you go."

Qin Chen casually pointed to a Huang family Martial Emperor elder. The elder felt delighted, but before he could take two steps, he said coldly, "You have one incense stick’s time. Within this time, bring the pills to redeem your people. If it exceeds one incense stick, I will kill every single Huang family member left behind, not one will be spared."

The elder immediately felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly said, "One incense stick is simply not enough."

"You see for yourself; it’s just getting some pills, how long could it take? Besides, your Huang family’s shop is right here in the Pill City. One incense stick is completely sufficient, or do you have other plans?"

The elder immediately fell silent and could only leave helplessly.

"As for the two of you, hand over twenty royal-grade pills, and you can leave," Qin Chen then said to Liu Xinhou and the others.

"What?" Liu Xinhou and the elder of the Liu family instantly turned pale. Twenty royal-grade pills, although much less than the Huang family’s, they were just wrongfully caught in this situation!

"If you think that's too much, you can refuse, but the consequences, heh." Qin Chen looked at the deceased Huang family elder and sneered.

"Fine, we’ll give them!"

Liu Xinhou sighed. Today’s matter could not be blamed on anyone else; they could only blame themselves for stepping into this murky water. The head of the Liu family rummaged through his storage ring for a long time and only managed to pull out ten royal-grade pills, intending to use true stones and spiritual medicine to make up the difference.

Qin Chen naturally didn’t care; he was too lazy to hold the Liu family accountable. The head of the Liu family was overjoyed; after paying the compensation, he turned to leave. Qin Chen did not stop him, and the two of them only breathed a sigh of relief after breaking away from the crowd in the Pill City, truly not having faced any retaliation.

They were scared stiff by Qin Chen's ruthless methods earlier, having directly killed a Huang family elder in the Pill City. Did this person still have any regard for the law?

"Head, are we just going to let this go?" The elder of the Liu family gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

"What do you want to do?" Liu Xinhou glared at him. If the elder hadn’t acted rashly, they could have run away at the first opportunity, and the opponent likely wouldn’t have pursued them.
