Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 211 - Offering Pills



When Bai Rouyun introduced the pills, Xue Jingyu was not too surprised. He had already gotten knowledge of the pure pills that the Eternal Shadow Palace owned.

He was not sure where these formulas had come from, but hearing Bai Rouyun was offering some of these pills, he could guess that it had something to do with her.

She did not have this ability in her past life, so it was likely that the treasure that had caused the others to kill her also brought her many benefits.

Even so, he did not feel greedy for these formulas. Although the Shitian Tower did not have such pure pills, he was also not the leader of the Shitian Tower just yet, and even if he brought such riches to them, he would not benefit much from it.

In fact, Xue Jingyu held a great grudge against his father. He understood that they would suffer heavy losses if they were to take revenge against Bai Rouyun's killers, but they would be able to afford such losses.

Instead, his father had instantly informed him that he was not allowed to use the power of the Shitian Tower to gain his revenge, and Xue Jingyu also had some doubts that the reason that he had entered the cultivation room back then when she was being chased was also his father's handwriting.

Xue Jingyu and his father did not have a great relationship. The first wife, Xue Jingyu's mother, had died when giving birth to him, but even so, it only took his father one month to promote one of his concubines to become the new main wife.

He had always believed that a man ought to have many wives and concubines, and as a result, Xue Jingyu had many half brothers and sisters.

While no one could rival his identity as the firstborn son of the true lineage, the new main wife had also birthed a few sons and daughters for the Shitian Tower Master, and she often wanted to use her schemes to take the power that Xue Jingyu wielded and hand it over to her own oldest son.

The Shitian Tower Master never interfered in these schemes. He did not care if the home was in chaos or peace, as long as no one questioned his decisions.

Throughout the years, Xue Jingyu had lost all semblance of respect towards this father of his, and he was not even very proud of the title as the Young Master of the Shitian Tower.

The only reason he had not left the family was his annoyance with the new main wife and her children. If he left, they would get what they wanted.

As such, Xue Jingyu did not wish to do anything that would benefit the Shitian Tower, and thus he was not eager to snatch these pills and formulas away from Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun.

The manager of the Canglan branch of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion was not aware of the current situation within the Shitian Tower.

When he heard that this woman had these pills, and combined with the previous auction, he was certain that the Eternal Shadow Palace owned the formulas for these pills.

He had already begun planning how to earn the most benefits from this woman. She was merely an ordinary person in the mortal world. While she had indeed married the Eternal Shadow Lord, she was not likely to be that shrewd herself, so he figured it would be simple to trick her.

"Madam, I was wondering what treasure you wish to trade these pills for?" The manager acted much more amiable now, but the disdain that he felt towards her had not been diminished.

Bai Rouyun could not help but sneer soundlessly as she turned her head away. She quickly returned to her calm facial expression before she answered the question.

"I am looking for a horn from a beast who has the bloodline of the Qilin." She was not beating around the bush but directly stated what she wanted.

Both the manager and Xue Jingyu could not help but frown when hearing her request. However, their reasons were very different.

Xue Jingyu was already starting to consider whether or not such a horn was present within the treasury of the Shitian Tower. While he was not happy being the Young Master of the Shitian Tower, he was not against abusing his power.

While he could not use the power to take revenge for Bai Rouyun, he could at least get her some treasures.

The manager was shocked that such a valuable treasure was being requested. He had wanted to offer some useless treasure that looked rather beautiful but had no actual purpose. Unfortunately, she had no other requests than such a horn.

Bai Rouyun could easily guess the manager's thoughts, so she spoke up right after, "I am not requesting for you to absolutely be the one who provides me with this treasure. If you can be the middleman and inform others that I am looking for this item, then I don't mind paying a certain fee to the Thousand Treasure Pavilion for their effort."

The manager frowned. He would benefit either way, but he was unwilling to give the majority of the pills away. If he could get them for himself, then he would be able to become much more influential in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion.

Unfortunately, he did not have such a horn. He was deep in thought of gaining these pills without paying much, but before he had the time to speak, Xue Jingyu opened his mouth.

"Announce to the world and inform them of the reward one can get if they manage to get such a horn. They will have to come here and exchange it in person. Also, keep Bai Rouyun's identity anonymous."
