Chapter 92: Consigning Medicinal Pills, Su Xuan's Surprise

"Deal!"

Lin Yan readily agreed to the Medicine Elder's request.

He understood that to master the Flame Devouring Wave Halberd, he needed to be able to use the heavy halberd effortlessly. Since the original character, Xiao Yan, had put in considerable effort, Lin Yan couldn't skip this process.

Taking the heavy halberd, Lin Yan felt its weight as he held it.

Without much ado, he slung it over his back and swallowed a few medicinal pills to replenish his elemental energy.

"Hehe, not bad."

The Medicine Elder smiled, admiring Lin Yan's straightforwardness and strong will.

Lin Yan, although a bit weakened from yesterday's exertions with the Buddha's Fury Lotus, impressed the Medicine Elder with his determination to adapt to the heavy halberd after taking a few pills.

So, after a faint smile, the Medicine Elder returned to his meditation without disturbing Lin Yan's cultivation.

Meanwhile, Lin Yan had other plans.

Feeling that the Sun Yuan Pills he carried were insufficient after the last visit to the auction with Lin Dong, Lin Yan decided to refine more pills to sell.

Although interrupted by obtaining the Buddha's Fury Lotus, now that he had mastered it, he needed to start making pills.

After resting in his room for the morning and using the pills to replenish his elemental energy by noon, Lin Yan went to find Lin Dong.

Upon seeing the heavy halberd on Lin Yan's back, Lin Dong was surprised.

"Lin Yan, what's that weapon you're carrying?"

Lin Yan chuckled and handed the halberd to Lin Dong.

Unexpectedly, Lin Dong struggled to bear its weight, causing the halberd to fall to the ground.

"Lin Yan, is this thing really that heavy?"

Lin Yan nodded with a smile, then effortlessly lifted it again and placed it behind him.

Impressed by Lin Yan's strength, Lin Dong remarked, "You're really strong, Lin Yan."

Lin Yan smiled and led Lin Dong to lunch.

After lunch, Lin Dong intended to continue practicing his mental techniques, but Lin Yan stopped him.

"I'll be refining pills later. Can you guard outside and not let anyone disturb me?"

Lin Dong agreed immediately.

Aware that Lin Yan's task was important, he didn't hesitate to comply.

As Lin Dong guarded outside, Lin Yan started refining pills in his room.

Since he was only selling them, Lin Yan focused on making widely applicable healing pills of decent quality. While these pills might not be significant in his eyes, they were rare in a world without professional alchemists like the Martial Realm.

Using his pill furnace, Lin Yan swiftly completed the process. As a fourth-grade alchemist, he was no longer a novice. Though not on par with the Medicine Elder, he was already considered an elder-level alchemist in a place like the Gamma Empire.

His speed and the quality of the pills he produced were impressive.

"Is this the art of pill refinement?"

"The flame he's using must be the strange fire."

"I didn't expect the strange fire to have such a remarkable use."

"Amazing!"

Despite guarding outside, Lin Dong, with his strong spiritual power, could perceive Lin Yan's pill refining process. It was his first time witnessing Lin Yan's skills in this field, and he couldn't help but admire it. Watching Lin Yan use the strange fire skillfully and produce pill after pill from the furnace, Lin Dong felt a sense of envy.

"This kid knows quite a lot."

"I've never seen such methods before," remarked the Little Ferret, unable to contain her astonishment.

She had witnessed alchemy before, but the standards in the Martial World were not as high as those on the Dou Qi Continent. Often, alchemy in the Martial World involved throwing various high-grade medicinal ingredients into a furnace and barely managing to form a pill.

The Little Ferret had seen others practice alchemy, but nothing had impressed her until she witnessed Lin Yan's process.

Lin Yan quickly finished refining the pills and stored them in the jade bottles he had prepared in advance.

Afterward, he took Lin Dong and headed straight to the consignment office of the Wanjin Auction House.

Upon having the pills inspected by the elderly attendant at the consignment office, Lin Yan entrusted the Wanjin Auction House with their sale.

According to them, they would know the exact amount the pills sold for after the auction ended the next day, and Lin Yan would be charged a commission of ten percent.

Lin Yan had no objections; these were basic procedures understood by everyone in such dealings.

After completing the formalities, Lin Yan returned to the inn with Lin Dong.

Meanwhile, as soon as Lin Yan and Lin Dong left the area, a commotion broke out.

A large crowd gathered, parting to make way for several figures that appeared before them.

Among these figures, the most eye-catching was a woman dressed in a red robe.

With fair skin like snow and a smile as elegant as a peach blossom, she exuded a captivating charm.

Beside her was a tall, slender woman in green.

Although equally beautiful, her cold demeanor contrasted sharply with the warmth of the former, giving her an air of aloofness.

Nevertheless, both women were stunning, attracting the attention of those around them. Yet, others restrained themselves from staring too intently, indicating the high status of these two women.

"Manager Su, Miss."

The elderly attendant at the consignment office respectfully greeted the two women.

The woman in the red robe nodded gently in response to the greeting and asked softly, "Old Qin, how is the situation today?"

The elderly attendant promptly handed over the registration book for today's consignments to the woman in the red robe. "Manager Su, everything is recorded here."

Manager Su, with a smile in her eyes, nodded and began inspecting the book.

As she flipped through the pages with delicate fingers, a breeze lifted her hair, giving her an ethereal appearance.

Suddenly, her brows furrowed slightly as she pointed to a line in the registration book that listed over a hundred bottles of high-grade medicinal pills. She turned to the elderly attendant with a hint of surprise and asked, "Old Qin, who is selling these? Are they still here?"
