Chapter 297 – Come Eat the Dog Shit
“What the fuck? This bet is so cruel! Asking the Myriad Sword Sect and the Shangguan Clan’s elders to eat dog shit? Damn it, how did he come up with that?”
“It sounds like that Chen Jiang already has a plan. Don’t tell me really can concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill?”
“Impossible, he’s only at the Divine Core realm, there is absolutely no way he can do it! I’m sure he’s just trying to piss both Ye Xian and Shangguan Chong off with the bet.”
The bet was absolutely cruel, it could definitely be considered the cruelest bet underneath the heavens. Ye Xian and Shangguan Chong were body so angry their necks turned red, and they couldn’t even speak a single word because of the extreme fury they felt.
“Wakaka! You two old fools are so honorable! This master dog can make eight different flavors of shit!”
Big Yellow’s wild laugh could be heard clearly.
Plop…
Many people fell down onto the ground. Even Jiang Chen and Han Yan were staggered, and nearly fell back into their rattan chairs. This dog was truly abnormal.
“Fuck his sister, eight different flavors? This dog is a weirdo!”
“Damn it, where did this dog come from? Could he be any more abnormal than this?”
“Oh heavens, daddy can’t stand it anymore! This is ridiculous, that bet is too cruel! Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong are definitely not going to accept it.”
“It’s hard to tell, but I’d accept it. This Chen Jiang is clearly trying to insult them! He is unable to concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill, that’s why there is no harm in accepting the bet, except for the small amount of shame. But if they reject the bet, they will feel even more shame. Furthermore, once Chen Jiang loses the bet, they can just kill him on the spot.”
Few people could stay calm. This dog was really cruel; he was truly invincible within the realm of cruelty.
Within the isolated room, Master Blissful was laughing. Even the man in black was laughing so much that his shoulders were trembling.
“Damn it, this guy is a genius, I like him! That dog as well, it’s pretty amazing!”
The man in black’s words startled Master Blissful. His tone was a little strange actually, as if it was similar to Chen Jiang’s tone.
“Young master Nangong, what do you think?”
Master Blissful looked at the man in black.
“I like this Chen Jiang. Nobody can take out the Nine Soul Restoration Pill, so why don’t we just let him try? What if he can really concoct it? My condition doesn’t allow me to drag on any longe- cough cough… damn it, here it comes again!”
The man in black suddenly started violently coughing as he was talking to Master Blissful. His body was trembling, as if he was suffering from tremendous pain.
“Chen Jiang, are you sure you can concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill?”
Master Blissful’s voice appeared in the auction hall.
“Of course I am. I can do it now.”
Jiang Chen replied in a confident manner. The Nine Soul Restoration Pill was indeed extremely difficult to concoct. In order to merge so many herbs and ingredients together, the consumption of the alchemist’s soul energy would be tremendous. Ordinary alchemist, even Combat Soul alchemists would feel extreme difficult in concocting the pill. But, with the help of the Great Soul Derivation skill, Jiang Chen had unlimited soul energy, so he had no reason to fear the huge consumption of his soul energy. Furthermore, his peerless ability to concoct pills had no comparison within this realm.
“Alright, if that is the case, I’ll let you give it a try. The herbs and ingredients will be provided by the Blissful Manor. If you really can concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill, you don’t have to pay for the ingredients, but if you fail, you have to pay me for them. Do you agree with this?”
For Master Blissful, this was a win-win deal. If Jiang Chen was unable to concoct the pill, he would have to pay for the ingredients, but if Jiang Chen really managed to concoct it, he would be using three portions of the ingredients needed to concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pills to become friends with a powerful alchemist, which was worth much, much more than the ingredients.
“No problem.”
Jiang Chen replied.
“Alright, prepare the ingredients.”
Master Blissful said.
Not long after that, a few Golden Warriors appeared on the auction stage. They poured out a bunch of herbs and ingredients. When these ingredient appeared on the stage, a strong smell of herbs immediately filled the entire auction hall, causing those who smelled it to feel relaxed and pleased.
These herbs made up the three portions perfectly, and they were precisely enough to concoct thee Nine Soul Restoration Pills.
“Young master Chen Jiang, please come to the auction stage.”
Xu Neng said, his face pointing toward the third private room.
Jiang Chen opened the window and leapt out from it, then he landed on the auction stage.
“Don’t you think this Chen Jiang is too prideful? There is always a risk when concocting pills, but he only requested three portions of the ingredients. Does he really think he can concoct a 100% effectiveness pill with these?”
“It looks like he really knows what he is doing, perhaps he really can do it?”
“Who knows? Let’s just wait and see. I still don’t believe a Divine Core warrior can concoct such a pill.”
Even at this point of time, the majority of the audience still didn’t believe that Jiang Chen could really concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill.
Jiang Chen’s calm expression remained on his face. When he threw his glance at the herbs, he couldn’t help but feel surprised about how wealthy the Blissful Manor was. All the ingredients require to concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill were here.
Jiang Chen didn’t immediately start, he instead threw his glance toward the Myriad Sword Sect and Shangguan Clan’s private rooms. With a loud and clear voice, he said, “Both of you, do you have the courage to bet with me? If you don’t, I’ll start concocting the pill now.”
With his words, Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong once again became the center of attention.
“Do it!”
“Accept the bet!”
The audience jeering. There was a saying that bystanders never feared a disturbance growing bigger, their only goal was to watch the show.
Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong’s expressions both became extremely ugly. It wasn’t that they didn’t have the courage to bet with Jiang Chen, it was that the bet was too cruel. It was so cruel that they couldn’t afford to lose.
“I don’t believe a Divine Core alchemist can concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill. Fine, I’ll accept your bet! But if you lose, I’ll tear you into pieces on the spot!”
Shangguan Chong said loudly. His entire voice echoed through the entire auction hall. It wasn’t difficult to imagine how angry he was right now.
“Youngster Chen Jiang, daddy also accepts your bet! If you lose, I’ll slice you into a thousand pieces!”
Ye Xiao accepted the bet as well. Both of them really hated Jiang Chen, and more importantly, there were extremely confident they would win. The Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect both had Combat Soul alchemists, and they had witnessed how these alchemists concocted pills. With the huge gap between the Divine Core realm and Combat Soul realm, they concluded that there was no way Jiang Chen could concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill, let alone on with 100% effectiveness.
In Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong’s minds, Jiang Chen was actually insulting them, and since that was the case, they wouldn’t let Jiang Chen get what he wanted. They believed Jiang Chen was just pretending. Once Jiang Chen failed, they would have a reason to kill him so that they could settle their scores.
Hearing what they said, Jiang Chen pretended he was startled.
“Haha, brat, now you’re scared! If you don’t have the ability, don’t disgrace yourself, come over and get yourself killed now!”
Shangguan Chong burst into laughter. In his eyes, Jiang Chen was startled because he was scared.
“I'm scared?”
Jiang Chen said with a grin, “The bet is already locked in, and the audience will be our witnesses. I hope the two of you don’t deny this later! Big Yellow, start preparing!”
“Kaka, I’m always prepared, and I’ll make sure the portion is enough for both of them!”
Big Yellow was really happy. He felt really excited about what was going to happen.
“The fuck? I thought Little Chen was just making fun of them, but he actually meant it? Big Yellow, does Little Chen really know how to concoct pills?”
Han Yan was shocked by Jiang Chen once again.
“Is there anything that guy doesn’t know?”
A grin emerged on Big Yellow’s face in front of Han Yan. He was really happy right now! No one knew about Jiang Chen’s alchemy abilities, except for him, that is. Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong were going to lose for sure, and Big Yellow wouldn’t show them any mercy later on. He promised them a big portion of his shit just now.
“He can even concoct a complicated pill like the Nine Soul Restoration Pill?”
Han Yan had mixed emotions. He had been in a coma, that’s why he had no idea whether or not Jiang Chen was a powerful alchemist, and felt shocked.
“Don’t worry! In the entire Eastern Continent, he is the only one who can concoct this pill.”
Big Yellow had the utmost confidence in Jiang Chen.
“Bastard, is he a reincarnation of an Immortal?”
Han Yan felt slightly depressed. He now knew that he had met a truly abnormal person. But, when he thought back, ever since he had met Jiang Chen, it had seemed like he was a guy who knew everything; he was like a vast library that contained the answer to everything.
The audience became restless, and everyone stared at white-clothed young man, Jiang Chen. Only now did they realize, this young man wasn’t joking! No person would bet their lives with their enemies as a joke!
“Don’t tell me this guy is really an alchemist?”
“It’s hard to tell, but even if he really is an alchemist, this Chen Jiang only has a Divine Core cultivation base. How can he concoct a complicated pill like the Nine Soul Restoration Pill?”
“Let’s just continue watching. If he can’t do it, I’m sure Ye Xiao and Shangguan Chong will rush onto the stage and tear him to pieces.”
The entire audience was looking at the auction stage. In the entire auction hall, only Jiang Chen was being focused on.
“Silence please!”
Xu Neng shouted out loudly, “Young master Chen Jiang is going to begin concocting pills, no one is allowed to disturb him!”
After that, Xu Neng turned around to Jiang Chen. With a smile he asked, “Young master Chen Jiang, can you start now?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Chen nodded his head. Xu Neng walked to a corner on the auction stage and stared at Jiang Chen without blinking his eyes.
“Humph! Let’s see what this little bastard is going to do.”
Ye Xiao coldly harrumphed, his words filled with despise.
“What a reckless junior, his arrogant will get him killed for sure.”
Shangguan Chong sat straight on the rattan chair, looking calm and relaxed.
Jiang Chen ignored the mocking words from those two. He calmly stared at the herbs next to him, then he unleashed Yuan energy from his body. With the help of this force, all the ingredients on the auction stage flew up into the air.
Buzz…
After that, an extremely powerful soul force dashed out from Jiang Chen’s body like a tsunami. With the help of this soul force, all herbs with the same characteristics were grouped together. After they were grouped, Jiang Chen perfectly divided them into three portions. Each portion was enough to concoct 1 Nine Soul Restoration Pill.
“What a powerful soul force, this guy really is an alchemist!”
“Never thought this guy had this ability! I underestimated him before.”
“Just keep watching. There are many Divine Core alchemists, but none of them can concoct this Nine Soul Restoration Pill.”
When sensing Jiang Chen’s tremendous soul force, those who doubted him before this immediately had a change in their expression. But, this could only prove that Jiang Chen was indeed an alchemist, it was still hard to tell if he really could concoct the Nine Soul Restoration Pill.
