The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 763: Chapter 763: Ten Billion Pill Recipe

Once the two young ladies left, Chen Moxiang finished the tea in her cup and asked with a smile, ”So? Those two young ladies are pretty, right?”

”Pretty!”

”Casanova!”

”...,” Lin Tian rolled his eyes, ”Everyone appreciates beauty. I think they’re pretty. Does that make me a Casanova?”

”Don’t think I didn’t see you three exchanging glances,” Chen Moxiang huffed in displeasure.

Lin Tian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t bother to respond and refilled their cups.

”How do you find this tea?” Lin Tian asked.

”I don’t drink much tea, can’t really tell. But it seems decent enough.” With that, Chen Moxiang lifted her cup and drank it in a single gulp.

Lin Tian thought she was genuine and cute, smiled, and also downed his tea in one go.

Then, Lin Tian performed his tea-brewing skills for Chen Moxiang.

In the end, Chen Moxiang could only squeeze out one sentence, ”So ugly... those two girls’ brewing looked much better.”

Lin Tian was speechless. Even though it was true, you didn’t have to put it so bluntly.

Lin Tian was actually a bit frustrated. Whether it’s exams, basketball, or cooking, he’s quick to learn and excel. But with tea, his progress was painstakingly slow.

Suddenly, Lin Tian had a flash of inspiration. Cooking can be enhanced with Spiritual Qi; maybe tea brewing can too.

He refilled Chen Moxiang’s cup, adding some Spiritual Qi, and smiled, ”Try it again. There might be a surprise this time.”

”What are you up to now?” Chen Moxiang glanced at Lin Tian suspiciously but eventually picked up the cup and took a sip. ”Huh? Why did the taste change?”

”How is it?” Lin Tian asked, his face full of smiles.

”I think it’s tastier than before. Although the taste hasn’t changed, it somehow feels better,” Chen Moxiang extended her empty cup forward, ”I’ll have another cup.”

Lin Tian poured her another cup and sampled some himself.

Indeed, the flavor was different. The tea’s fragrance hit the taste buds stronger than before, and the water seemed softer. In short, everything was perfect.

Not long after, the Sixth Elder and Mr. Tang returned. Seeing the smiles on their faces, Lin Tian knew the potion recipe had been ’approved.’

”Young man, we have re-evaluated your potion recipe many times, and even checked ancient texts on the Yin-Yang Fish Eye. Combined with your recipe, it makes perfect sense,” the Sixth Elder said, his eyes sharp as he looked at Lin Tian. ”Tell me, what do you really want?”

”What do I really want?”

”Exactly, what do you want? Such a valuable potion recipe is hard to find anywhere. For us, it’s invaluable. Sharing something like this casually, you must want something in return?”

Lin Tian smiled and said, ”What if I said I want the most precious herb in Luoyan Dock?”

The Sixth Elder answered almost without hesitation, ”No problem!”

This time it was Lin Tian’s turn to be stunned. What do you mean no problem? How can there be no problem?

I would have known if it were that easy. Who would risk stealing herbs?

If I just pulled out three recipe sheets and tossed them at this old man’s face, I could have gotten the two herbs the Xu Family wanted as well.

Clearly, it was a simple task that I complicated, and now it’s causing so much trouble.

Is there anything more bothersome in this world?

The Sixth Elder had no idea what Lin Tian was thinking and urgently said, ”Tell me the final step to complete the potion, and I’ll go to the pharmacy to get the most precious herb right away.”

Lin Tian rubbed his nose, ”I was just joking... no need to be so excited, Sixth Elder.”

”Then what do you really want?”

”I need an Alchemy Furnace. Do you have one?”

”Well... Alchemy Furnaces are mostly antiques by now, and most of them have damages. Even in our Alliance, that one has been repaired many times...”

The implication was that there wasn’t one available.

”Can’t you make one?” Lin Tian asked another question.

Mr. Tang smiled bitterly, ”Young man, you may not know this, but the materials for an Alchemy Furnace are extremely rare, and its craftsmanship is very complex. It took the collaboration of martial arts masters in ancient times to build one during the warrior era. Nowadays, no one has such capabilities.”

The Sixth Elder sighed deeply while sitting beside him, lamenting that the modern world cannot compare to the ancient one.

Lin Tian shrugged indifferently, ”Without an Alchemy Furnace, it’s fine. I have no immediate needs at the moment.”

Both elders almost choked. No needs? Nonsense! This is Luoyan Dock!

Then thinking further, they thought, if he can take out such a potion, what could he possibly lack?

”Are you planning to just sell it for money?” Mr. Tang couldn’t help but ask.

Lin Tian raised his head and thought for a moment, ”Money’s fine too, I guess.”

To be honest, Lin Tian just came to see how valuable his potion recipes were. He didn’t expect that casually throwing one out would almost drive these two old men mad.

The only thought in the two elders’ minds right now was: such a waste!

This kid’s such a squanderer!

Money! Look at the word; it’s just so distasteful!

To these two elders, money is just a string of numbers, not worth looking at. How could it compare with this potion recipe?

”How much do you want? The Tang Family will buy it!” Mr. Tang slammed the table, wanting to make the first move!

The Sixth Elder immediately disagreed and also slammed the table, ”Old Tang, what do you mean? This potion recipe is to be sold at the Alliance. It’s not right for you to take over, is it?”

Suddenly, Chen Moxiang interjected, ”Why don’t both of you buy it together?”

The two elders exchanged glances and fell silent.

The rarity and value of this potion recipe are self-explanatory. If acquired, how many martial artists can leap to Golden Core? Its value is immeasurable.

Such good things, everyone wants to keep for themselves.

Sharing wasn’t part of their thought process.

”Old Tang, why don’t we buy it together? It seems this thing isn’t cheap.”

”Fine!” Mr. Tang agreed readily, looking keenly at Lin Tian, ”Young man, name your price. The two of us will take it.”

Lin Tian was exasperated. What kind of mess is this? Did I agree to privately sell it to you? Clearly, throwing it at an auction would fetch a higher price.

But on second thought, it doesn’t matter who buys it, so why not do these two old guys a favor?

Lin Tian didn’t respond but simply held up three fingers.

”Three billion?! That’s way too much!” Mr. Tang exclaimed, three billion isn’t just a number, it’s money!

Sixth Elder tried to negotiate, ”How about one billion? Three billion is really beyond what we can afford.”
