When Qian Wanguan brought back the good news, Jiang Yi was in silent ecstasy. He didn’t bother about anything else and asked Qian Wanguan to bring over a massive amount of Earth Dragon Elixirs, various herb powders, and refined elixirs at full force.

It’s a pity that Jiang Yi’s refinement technique wasn’t proficient yet. For the first few days of refinement—out of every ten elixirs, six or seven of them would explode. As he continued to increase his proficiency, the probability that the elixir would explode continued to decrease. After he refined a thousand elixirs named the ‘Heaven Dragon Elixir,’ Qian Wanguan immediately asked someone to take it and sell it in the Spirit Beast City. They priced it at 4000 purple gold per elixir and expressed that they were going to supply it for the long term.

When the information got out, it immediately garnered the attention from plenty of the young masters and ladies of the college. It soon spread throughout the entire Divine Martial Kingdom, which stirred up a sensation. The Qian Clan even sent someone to come and understand more about the situation, but it had been suppressed by Qian Wanguan; and no one would reveal it.

Heaven-tier elixirs could only be refined by a grade-four Elixir King. How many Elixir Kings were there on the entire continent? For the past ten millennia, the continent only had a total of 107 Elixir Kings. The continent presently had only six living Elixir Kings, and three of them didn’t refine elixirs for sale anymore.

What was the status of the Elixir King like?

Those three Elixir Kings would occasionally refine some heaven-tier elixirs to spread around, but they weren’t in a shortage for money. This was why they wouldn’t refine heaven-tier elixirs for the long term.

Thus, the market did have heaven-tier elixirs, but the quantity was always kept low. These various young masters and young ladies had always been relying on the Earth Dragon Elixirs, Earth Spirit Elixirs, and over a dozen of different types of earth-tier superior grade elixirs to cultivate. But now, they had a long term supply of heaven-tier elixirs? This news naturally created an uproar.

Because this elixir appeared at the Qian Clan’s elixir store, no other clan dared to go recruit this new Elixir King. Large amounts of orders would influx into the Qian Clan like snowflakes, spending in style. Each order would start from the quantity of a few thousand.

As a result, the price of the Heaven Dragon Elixirs soared quickly. As another result, Jiang Yi was dog-tired. During this period of time, he basically didn’t have any time to cultivate. Apart from accumulating black essence forces, he would be refining the Heaven Dragon Elixirs.

Fortunately, his elixir refinement was simple. He merely had to re-refine the elixirs and would be able to refine almost 100 elixirs at one go. Producing 1000 Heaven Dragon Elixirs a day was easy.

Chen Lao, who was in the Spirit Beast City, was also dog-tired. The stock in the elixir store’s warehouse had already been depleted by Qian Wanguan. Qian Wanguan also constantly sent down orders for Chen Lao to quickly produce Earth Dragon Elixirs. Jiang Yi’s re-refinement speed was a few hundred folds faster than Chen Lao’s refinement speed. Finally, without any other choice, Qian Wanguan went to Qian Clan’s headquarters and requested for more.

For the entire two months, Jiang Yi wasn’t sure how many Heaven Dragon Elixir did he refine. When he completed the final order, he finally couldn’t take it and stop to instantly fall asleep. This sleep of his lasted for three days and three nights.

He had a very pleasant sleep. Qian Wanguan had already informed him that the money he earned was enough for him to buy ten stalks of Thousand-year-old Wolfberry Ginseng. Now Jiang Yi only lacked the Soul-Subduing Herb.

He had a dream that Jiang Xiaonu was rescued and was looking at him with a sweet smile while calling him ‘Young Master.’ He dreamt that he, Jiang Yunhai, and Jiang Xiaonu left the Divine Martial Kingdom. They found a small city and had a carefree life.

…

When he woke up, he realized that Qian Wanguan was seated right beside his bed. Qian Wanguan was even having this gloomy expression that was so horrific that Jiang Yi jumped out of bed. He asked with a serious tone, “What happened?”

Qian Wanguan was normally smiling mischievously, and it was rare that he had such a serious expression. Jiang Yi naturally knew that something happened.

“Two news!”

Qian Wanguan let out a faint sigh. “Firstly, in the past few days. My men realized that a few of the Wolfberry Ginseng had been bought. I immediately send my men to go buy them, only to realize that all of them had been purchased. The final one appeared in the royal capital’s auction. When I sent my men to go auction for it, someone deliberately raised the prices. The final price was raised to 30 million purple gold, but of course, I still asked my men to buy it.”

“Someone is targeting me?”

Jiang Yi instinctively felt the presence of a conspiracy. This Wolfberry Ginseng wasn’t a precious spirit herb, and there was over a dozen of them on the market just recently. Even if someone was to coincidentally require it, they wouldn’t possibly buy all of them. They even pushed the price to 30 million purple gold?

Since it was already bought, Jiang Yi didn’t bother about it anymore. Thirty million purple gold was just some additional refinement of the Heaven Dragon Elixir. He did a hand gesture and said, “If it is already bought, forget it. I will repay the purple gold back to your clan later on. What is the second news?”

“Boss. Follow me!”

Qian Wanguan stood up and headed to the other room while Jiang Yi followed quickly. He opened the door and took a glance. His body had an intense shudder while his eyes had slight tears that glittered and his lips were shaking uncontrollably.

This room was originally empty, but Qian Wanguan got someone to come decorate it and furnished it with a huge, comfortable bed. This wasn’t the point; the individual that was lying on the bed was the important point. It was a beautiful lass—someone who had been sleeping for more than a year.

Jiang Xiaonu.

Jiang Yi gazed at Jiang Xiaonu’s captivating face and staggered as he walked over. He sat on the side of the bed and reached his trembling hand to rub Jiang Xiaonu’s face. His eyes were filled with pampering and cherish.

“Young Master, do your best!”

“Young Master, you are awesome. Xiaonu adores Young Master the most.”

“Young Master will surely be someone important in the future. Xiaonu believes that our Young Master will stand proudly at the pinnacle of the continent!”

His mind was echoing with Jiang Xiaonu’s puerile speeches while an image of the pleasant servant girl with a sweet smile and encouraging eyes appeared. Jiang Yi gazed for a moment before painfully closing his eyes and muttered, “Xiaonu. Young Master is now very awesome, you know? Young Master has killed many of the people who bullied us. A pity that… you couldn’t witness it yourself!”

More than one year ago, he had entered the Mt. Spirit Beast College and had never seen Jiang Xiaonu again. When he went to the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch, Jiang Yunhai offended the Zhangsun Clan because of him, and Jiang Xiaonu vanished. Jiang Yunhai might have said that he had made appropriate arrangements, but Jiang Yi was still very worried. Now that he suddenly saw Jiang Xiaonu, how could he remain unmoved?

“Something isn’t right!”

Jiang Yi suddenly awoke from shock. His eyes were instantly bursting with chilling light, and his body had a sudden surge of killing aura. He cast his eyes onto Qian Wanguan as he shouted, “Why is Xiaonu sent here? Where is my Grandfather? Is he in danger?”

Back then, when Jiang Yunhai was being pursued by the Zhangsun Clan, he didn’t hand Jiang Xiaonu over to the Qian Clan. Perhaps he didn’t trust the Qian Clan back then. Jiang Yi knew well of Jiang Yunhai’s nature. Unless it was his last resort, he would never send Jiang Xiaonu over here.

“Let’s go out and talk. Sister Xiaonu is very safe here. Don’t worry, I will get someone to take good care of her.”

Qian Wanguan lowered his voice and headed outside with very heavy footsteps. On the other hand, Jiang Yi was even more nervous as he walked with huge strides and fixed his eyes onto Qian Wanguan.

“Jiang Yunhai isn’t dead yet. But… when my men saw him. He was injured!”

Qian Wanguan quickly threw out the shocking news. Before Jiang Yi could even speak, he explained: “He is now running for his life. I have yet to receive any news of his life or death. Boss, this time… I cannot do anything to help you. Because—the enemy’s background is too strong!”

“Who is it?”

Killing aura was pouring out of Jiang Yi’s body. His eyes began to glow red, and if he didn’t realize it earlier, he would have released the Massacre Intent.

Qian Wanguan let out a deep sigh and shook his head. “Boss, you better restrain yourself. You currently don’t have enough strength to go against this person. He is from the royal clan, Third Prince Xia Tian!

“The royal clan, Xia Clan’s member?”

Jiang Yi’s expression suddenly turned sinister like he was a fearful beast that was going to grab someone and bite down on their flesh. He laughed out coldly, “I don’t care if he’s a prince or the crown prince. If he dares to kill my Grandfather, I—Jiang Yi—swear to kill him!”
