Ye Shi sold five bottles of elixirs for four million spirit stones to Xin Ruge.
Seeing Ye Shi, Xin Ruge couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Junior brother, you have so much money now. What are you going to do with them?”
Xin Ruge frowned. The last time Ye Shi received over 1.8 million spirit stones, he spent most of the spirit stones in just two days. Now Ye Shi should have more than 5 million spirit stones in his card. How long will it take Ye Shi to use them up?….
Ye Shi held the spirit stone card, and said sadly: “I don’t know if this is enough.”
Xin Ruge looked at Ye Shi in confusion and said: “It’s not enough? What do you want to do? So many spirit stones are not enough?”
Ye Shi shook his head and said: “Not enough.”
Ye Shi frowned. When there was trouble in the Mu family, Mu Yuanhang deliberately leaked the news about the Spirit-breaking Elixir, forcing Mu Yuanfeng to have no choice but to auction off the Spirit-breaking Elixir. This had always been one of Mu Chen’s worries. Mu Chen planned to purchase the Spirit-breaking Elixir in the imperial capital, and then have someone deliver it back to Mu Yuanfeng.
Mu Yuanfeng was kind to Ye Shi. Ye Shi’s acceptance letter was bought by Mu Yuanfeng. Without Mu Yuanfeng, Ye Shi might not have been admitted to Saint Star Academy. According to Mu Chen, Ye Shi certainly couldn’t oppose his plan, not to mention that the spirit stones were obtained by Mu Chen.
What Mu Chen wanted to purchase was a high grade Spirit-breaking Elixir. Back then, Mu Yuanfeng’s low-grade Spirit-breaking Elixir was auctioned for more than two million spirit stones. Although elixirs in the imperial capital were not as rare as in a small town and were cheaper than a small town, the price of a high-grade Spirit-breaking Elixir was at least twice as expensive as a low-grade one. It probably cost more than two or three million.
What Mu Chen wanted was more than just the Spirit-breaking Elixir. He also wanted to bring some spiritual items to Mu Yuanfeng that could increase his strength. Those things weren’t cheap either. And he had to pay shipping fees to someone who would bring these things back. Ye Shi couldn’t give an amount of what the total cost would be.
Ye Shi looked at the spirit stone card in his hand, sighed lightly, and said: “Not enough!”
Xin Ruge rolled her eyes and said: “How can you spend so much money?!”
Ye Shi looked at Xin Ruge, shook his head, and said: “You don’t understand. There are so many things to buy.”
Xin Ruge: “…”
Ye Shi didn’t know that there was a reason why Mu Chen was eager to buy the Spirit-breaking Elixir to help Mu Yuanfeng increase his strength.
According to the original book, Lu Yao would soon come to look for the Hundred Exercises.
In the original book, the reason why Lu Yao knew that the Hundred Exercises was in Mu Chen’s hands was because Mu Chen told Zhuang Yu, and Zhuang Yu told Lu Yao. Although it was impossible for him to tell Zhuang Yu about the Hundred Exercises, but Mu Chen wasn’t sure that Lu Yao would trace all the way to Mu Yuanfeng.
In the original book, Mu Chen died at the hands of Lu Yao, and Mu Yuanfeng also died at the hands of Lu Yao’s protector to avenge Mu Chen.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Even if Mu Yuanfeng did not take revenge on Lu Yao, Lu Yao would probably kill Mu Yuanfeng to silence him.
After all, Mu Yuanfeng was the biological father of this body. Ever since he came here, Mu Yuanfeng had always been kind to Mu Chen, and Mu Chen didn’t want anything bad to happen to Mu Yuanfeng.
“Fortunately, the recipe is worth a lot of money.” Ye Shi said with a smile.
Xin Ruge frowned, looked at Ye Shi, and said: “Shi Tou, I’m afraid that the recipe won’t be worth that many spirit stones.”
“Why?” Ye Shi said with a frown.
Xin Ruge sighed and said: “Shi Tou, you should be satisfied with your profits. In fact, Miss Lian is already very good. All in all, don’t get your hopes up for that recipe.”
No matter how precious the second-level elixir is, it is only a second-level elixir. Originally, Lian Mengxun didn’t need to spend so many stones to buy twenty level-two elixirs. She only needed to buy two elixirs and hand them over to the academy. After analyzing the formula, the senior alchemist could get the elixir formula she needed. He would spend so many spirit stones because it was an unwritten rule that he had purchased the pill formula.
Ye Shi was still looking at Xin Ruge in confusion. Xin Ruge sighed lightly, and said to Ye Shi: “You will understand later.”
Ye Shi pouted, thinking: I understand? Understand what? He didn’t understand at all.
……
“Have you heard? Senior Sister Lian seems to have actually obtained a spirit beast elixir.”
“I heard that the spirit beast elixir was refined by one of our new students.”
“I heard it too. I originally thought that person was Lan Ruofeng. After all, everyone said that he was the best among the new students of the Alchemy School, much better than the ordinary new students. But I heard that he’s not the one.”
“Maybe you don’t believe it, but I got some good news from that fat guy Fu Yuanbao. That person doesn’t seem to be a new student from our Alchemy School, but from the Talisman School.”
“That’s from the Talisman School? How is that possible? How can a talisman maker make spirit beast pills?”
“The person who sold the spirit beast elixir to Senior Sister Lian was Ye Shi, a disciple of Senior Jing Chiyan. Everyone knows that Ye Shi can’t make elixirs, but his fiancé, Mu Chen, is a level two alchemist. Mu Chen is from the Talisman School. I heard that Senior Sister Lian bought twenty pills from Ye Shi for 200,000 each.”
“Twenty, 200,000 each, that’s 4 million! Ye Shi is rich now.” A new student couldn’t help but say.
Every new student who is not rich dreams of becoming rich overnight, and Ye Shi, of course, has become a role model in everyone’s mind.
……
Lan Ruofeng walked among the crowd with a very gloomy face. During this time, the matter of spirit beast elixirs rose, and Mu Chen also began to attract the attention of the senior management of the Alchemy School.
Lan Da’s involvement in Mu Chen’s entrance examination is still being revealed. Although the dean of the Alchemy School did not say much, in the end, he was still a little angry about Lan Da, and this matter became a problem for Lan Da. Although Lan Da didn’t say anything, Lan Ruofeng knew that his clan uncle was keeping his distance from him.
There was a lot of fuss about the spirit beast elixir, and Zhuang Yu had heard about it too.
Ever since Zhuang Yu entered the academy, he had been compared to Ye Shi. In public opinion, Zhuang Yu was beautiful while Ye Shi looked ordinary. Zhuang Yu was friendly while Ye Shi was hot-tempered. Zhuang Yu was noble and graceful but Ye Shi was rude and savage…
Zhuang Yu is much better than Ye Shi in every possible way. But there was one thing that Zhuang Yu could not compare to Ye Shi. Ye Shi had a fiancée who was obedient to him and good at making money.
The better Mu Chen was, the more jealous Zhuang Yu became of Ye Shi.
In the book, Zhuang Yu is innocent and kind, transcendental, and he is not jealous at all. After all, he could get everything he wanted. Now, with Mu Chen’s involvement, Zhuang Yu was finally jealous.
……
Mu Chen had a full schedule every day, cultivating, concocting elixirs, making talismans, thinking…
In Saint Star Academy, there was a day off every seven days. On this day, students could go out of the academy and look around outside.
On the holiday, Ye Shi and Mu Chen left the academy early.
Less than half a month after entering the academy, Ye Shi’s strength had stabilized at the level of a two-star martial art master under the guidance of Jing Chiyan, but Mu Chen had yet to make a breakthrough due to his lackluster qualifications, plus the interference of alchemy and talismans.
However, Mu Chen had taken advantage of this period of time to open more than half of the blocked acupoints on his body, and his training speed had increased several times at once. In a while, his lack of talent could be overcome.
“Mu Chen, it’s cheaper to buy the Spirit-breaking Elixir at the academy.” Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen and said.
Mu Chen nodded and said: “I know, but all the Spirit-breaking Elixirs in the academy are supposed to be used by the students themselves. If they are bought from family members, the higher-ups in the academy will have a problem with it.”
Mu Chen paused for a moment, then continued: “I know that if you use your Shifu as an excuse, the academy will turn a blind eye to it. But we should try our best not to cause trouble to your Shifu. Besides, the alchemist association in the imperial capital has a good reputation, and they are also responsible for shipping.”
Ye Shi smiled flatly and said: “They are in charge of shipping, but I heard that they charge a 10% commission.”
Mu Chen smiled indifferently, and said: “That’s a bit expensive, but it’s safe!” To be honest, if the Alchemist Association’s commission was too low, he wouldn’t have chosen them.
Ye Shi nodded and said: “Okay, you’re right.”
The Alchemist Association’s Spirit-breaking elixir was worth 3 million. Since Mu Chen was a level two alchemist, he could get a discount. In the end, he got a 20% discount, 2.4 million. Other than the Spirit-breaking Elixir, Mu Chen spent more than 100 spirit stones. To purchase many spiritual herbs and spiritual items that helped with martial art cultivation. Together with the 400,000 spirit stones commission for shipping, the total cost was nearly 4 million spirit stones.
Ye Shi’s heart ached when he saw the missing numbers on the spirit stone card, but he gradually became indifferent.
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi’s face and comforted: “Don’t worry. I may spend a lot of money but I will earn more. After selling the recipe, we can still make a lot of money.”
Ye Shi frowned and said disappointedly: “Senior Sister Xin said that the pill formula won’t be worth much money.”
Mu Chen smiled lightly, and said disapprovingly: “Whether a recipe can sell money depends on whether the people in the academy have the ability to do so. Don’t worry. Forty spirit beast elixirs won’t last long. If Miss Lian wants to subdue the blood dragon, a large number of spirit beast elixirs are required. It is impossible for the people in the academy to research the elixir formula before Lian Mengxun runs out of pills. So, you have to wait and receive more money.”
For ordinary low-level elixir recipes, many high-level alchemists could replicate them by deciphering the ingredients. However, this spirit beast elixir is different. The important thing about this pill was not the spiritual grass used in concocting the pill, but concocting the outer pill.
“Okay.” Ye Shi nodded and said. Actually, Ye Shi didn’t really understand Mu Chen’s words, but he understood that he had money to earn.
“Even if recipes are worthless, I’ll think of other ways to make money.” Mu Chen said lightly.
Ye Shi nodded and said: “I know.”
Among the lower-class students in the entire academy, Mu Chen was the one who made the most money. There were some students who were richer than Mu Chen, but they were all children of big families.
“Talisman Association.” When they walked on the street, the marvelous Talisman Association appeared in their eyes.
Ye Shi glanced at Mu Chen and said: “Are you already a talisman maker? You should get yourself a certificate.”
Mu Chen nodded and said: “Alright.”
Talisman Badges were often used in the Talisman School. Mu Chen didn’t even have a level one talisman badge. Most of the tasks in the Talisman School required a talisman badge.

It’s easy to be “innocent” when everything falls into your hands, when you just need to open your mouth to be fed and lift your arms to be clothed. How about real life, huh?
Thank you for the update.
