Chapter 388 Thousand Medicine Workshop
"Let's go, Xian'er, come with me to buy some precious medicinal herbs."
After watching Hu Jia and the others leave safely, Lin Fan and Little Fairy Doctor strolled around the streets of Black Emperor City.
Gold coins at this level of auction are basically useless; bartering is the ultimate form of exchange, and elixirs are undoubtedly the hard currency!
Lin Fan planned to exchange some low-grade pills for some high-grade medicinal herbs, and then refine high-grade pills as chips for the auction!
"This young lady is so beautiful, that boy is so lucky!"
"What's so good about a pretty boy? He looks like he has kidney deficiency just by looking at his skinny frame!"
As the two walked down the street, Xiao Yixian's beauty and temperament unsurprisingly caused a stir, with many people pointing and gossiping.
"Sigh, sometimes having a wife who is too beautiful can be a problem."
Lin Fan sighed helplessly. Leading Little Fairy Doctor in the Black Corner Region, it was impossible to avoid trouble.
"Hey little girl, interested in playing with this old man for a bit?"
The moment the thought crossed Lin Fan's mind, two burly men, shirtless and wielding large knives, blocked his path. Their lewd gazes swept rapidly over Little Fairy Doctor's delicate body, and they were practically drooling.
The Fairy Doctor frowned slightly, but did not speak. She moved gracefully to the side, and Lin Fan hurriedly followed.
"This guy is such a coward! He watched his woman being harassed and didn't dare to say a word!"
"She's probably new to the Black Corner Region. Poor girl, she's about to be ruined by those guys from the Kui Lang Gang!"
A chorus of boos erupted from the crowd, and many cast disdainful glances at Lin Fan.
"Don't go, beauty!"
The two burly men, leering, were about to catch up with Little Fairy Doctor when they suddenly stopped, their words cut short.
Chi Chi!
A deep voice came, and the big man looked down. He was terrified, because his hands, legs, feet, and every part of his body were rapidly turning black and turning into a pitch-black liquid!
"Ahhh!"
A chilling scream echoed through the street. The onlookers, their faces pale, retreated in disarray, watching helplessly as the two burly men turned into a pool of thick, black liquid, emitting a foul stench, leaving not a single hair behind!
At this moment, when everyone looked at Little Fairy Doctor again, their previous frivolity was gone, replaced by fear and horror. They hadn't even seen Little Fairy Doctor make a move before the two unlucky guys were dead!
Wherever Lin Fan and Little Fairy Doctor passed, the crowd quickly parted to make way, seemingly afraid of being caught in the crossfire.
"Let's go in and have a look."
After browsing around for a while, Lin Fan stopped in front of a store called 'Qianyaofang'. This store was very large and had a strong reputation in Black Emperor City.
After entering Qianyaofang, Lin Fan went straight to the top floor, where rare medicinal herbs were sold.
"Please wait. If you wish to participate in the pill exchange on the third floor, you will need to present at least one pill of grade five or higher to enter."
Lin Fan was stopped by an old man as soon as he reached the stairwell. Lin Fan understood the old man's request, which was similar to "V50 depends on strength". Otherwise, how could the exchange meeting be conducted if any Tom, Dick, or Harry could sneak in?
"Is this enough?"
Lin Fan took out two jade bottles from his system space and handed them over. Inside were two Dou Wang Pills, peak fifth-grade pills that could help a Dou Wang expert increase their strength by one or two stars!
"Such a high-quality Battle King Pill is the best I have ever seen in my life! Please, honored guest!"
The old man looked surprised, then very respectfully handed the pill back to Lin Fan and stepped aside.
The third floor was relatively small, but there were also few guests, with fewer than ten chairs. "These two handsome men and beautiful women look unfamiliar. They must have come to Black Royal City because of the auction. May I ask their names?"
Just as Lin Fan was looking around, a charming voice rang in his ears. Turning his head, he saw a young woman in her thirties or forties walking gracefully towards him with a smile.
The young woman had a curvaceous figure, exuding a mature and charming aura. Her skin was fair and smooth without a single wrinkle, and her delicate features were lightly made up. She was a woman in her prime, yet still retained her charm.
"My name is Lin Fan, and she is Little Fairy Doctor."
"Lin Fan? Could it be that you were the one who killed Han Feng back then?"
The young woman was taken aback at first, then stared at Lin Fan with a mixture of surprise and doubt in her beautiful eyes.
"It's just a coincidence that we share the same name. May I ask how to address you, sister?"
Lin Fan smiled slightly. It was better to keep a low profile before obtaining the Bodhi Transformation Saliva to avoid unnecessary trouble. Anyway, there were at least eight or ten thousand people named Lin Fan in the Black Corner Region.
"I see. I am the proprietress of Qianyaofang. You can just call me Shopkeeper Yao."
Master Yao smiled slightly, showing no doubt about Lin Fan's words.
"The exchange meeting is about to begin, please proceed."
At Yao Fangzhu's invitation, Lin Fan and Little Fairy Doctor took their seats in turn.
"Haha, I've come uninvited, I hope Master Yao won't mind."
Just then, a burst of laughter rang out from the stairwell, and a short, stout old man in his sixties walked up with a smile.
Upon seeing the newcomer, a fleeting look of disgust crossed Yao Fangzhu's eyes, which was quickly replaced by his signature smile as he approached.
"Why is that old bastard Qi Shan here too? What bad luck!"
"Taking advantage of being the Black Emperor Sect's personal alchemist, he always buys those precious medicinal herbs at low prices. It's utterly shameless!"
The old man's appearance caused whispers among the guests, and many people's expressions turned grim. His presence was bad news for both Qianyaofang and those participating in the exchange meeting.
Qi Shan seemed to have long been used to his persona of being disliked by both sides. He shamelessly pulled up a chair, sat down, and took a sip of tea.
"Now that everyone is here, let's officially begin this exchange meeting!"
"This batch of medicinal herbs has just arrived fresh, so please feel free to place your bids."
As Yao Fangzhu finished speaking, the platform in front of him slowly rose, revealing three exquisite jade boxes!
As the box was opened, three herbs of different colors were revealed to everyone, their enchanting aroma filling the air!
"Ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus ginseng, divine Kun black chicken feet, and ice-fire dragon beard fruit!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. These three medicinal herbs are all extremely precious and rare. The Ten-Thousand-Year Snow Lotus Ginseng and the Ice-Fire Dragon Beard Fruit can be used to refine high-quality Breakthrough Pills!
The most precious of them all is the Divine Kun Black Chicken Feet, which comes from a Kun-type magical beast with ancient bloodlines. It is extremely rare and can be used to refine Rank 8 pills!
"Haha, I've come to the right place this time! I'll take them all!"
Qi Shan laughed loudly and took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, then threw it over.
When Yao Fangzhu took the document and opened it, her pretty face immediately darkened.
"Elder Qi, the value of these medicinal herbs far exceeds that of two Douwang Pills, and the quality of your two pills is not high. It's questionable whether they can even improve your strength by one star."
Master Yao took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger, and spoke in a calm tone.
