Simultaneously traversing from Type-Moon

He had heard too much mockery before and was immune to trash talk. Just like Xiao Yan in the original novel, as long as his family and friends weren't insulted, he would pretend he didn't hear it.

Xiao Yan has such a good temper. If someone insults him, he'll just remain expressionless or give a wry smile. As long as his friends or family aren't insulted, it's fine.

When others fight him, unless there is some deep-seated hatred or a life-or-death battle between them, Xiao Yan will actually hold back.

Yunlan Sect harbored deep hatred for him, nearly destroying his family, causing his father to disappear, and crippling his elder brother.

Xiao Yan's attitude towards this was simply to punish the ringleaders without harming the innocent people at the bottom.

If this happened now, and they encountered some so-called "righteous indignation" and "intolerant of any injustice," they would probably slaughter everyone in the Yunlan Sect.

Moreover, according to the other party's concept of "hating evil as if it were an enemy," probably 99% of the people on the Dou Qi Continent should be killed.

Those who want to kill him deserve to be killed! That's absolutely right.

Those who insult him deserve to die! Those who look down on him deserve to die! Those who use foul language deserve to die! Those who don't use foul language but make him feel uncomfortable deserve to die! Those he dislikes deserve to die! Bystanders who say nothing and do nothing deserve to die! Even their relatives, friends, and fellow disciples deserve to die!

This isn't about hating evil; this is about killing indiscriminately; this is pure antisocial behavior!

Chapter 124 A Deal Underway with Hidden Motives

Du Can patted Qing Lin's head to calm himself down.

Qinglin was very well-behaved at the moment and didn't say anything. Du Can had told her the purpose of this trip beforehand, and she knew she couldn't disturb her brother Du Can's performance, so she remained as still as a wooden doll.

“Chief of the snake people tribe, I have no intention of attacking you. I have only come here to purchase some precious medicinal herbs from your tribe.”

Du Can stated his purpose directly.

"Medicinal herbs...what medicinal herbs?"

While the snake-man leader posed this question outwardly, he secretly signaled to his subordinates to quickly contact powerful figures in other tribes.

Upon seeing this, the subordinate immediately left.

Du Can naturally saw the little tricks these people were doing, but he didn't pay too much attention to them. As long as the other party didn't invite a Dou Zong, it was no big deal to him.

"Sand Datura, Agave, Green Nether Fruit..."

Du Can named the types of medicinal herbs.

"...These medicinal herbs are all precious. Our tribe did have them before, but they have all been given to those larger tribes."

The tribal chief spoke with a hint of regret, as if he felt sorry for Du Can, but then turned and said...

"If you have any needs, you can seek them from those large tribes, or you can wait here for a moment while I send someone to contact the people of those large tribes to make a deal with you."

The tribal chief's actions seemed to be for Du Can's benefit, but the cunning glint in his eyes could not escape Du Can's keen eyes.

The people on the Dou Qi Continent are really something; they don't learn any expression management at all. Some people's intentions are written all over their faces.

This guy is probably trying to stall for time until a skilled opponent arrives.

"Chief, I don't want to waste any more words with you. I can refine a fourth-grade pill for you in exchange for these medicinal herbs. If you agree, all will be well. If not, then I'll leave now."

Du Can was too lazy to waste words with him and went straight to stating his terms.

The conditions are actually quite favorable. Although those medicinal herbs are very precious and enough to refine sixth-grade pills, their value is at most similar to that of fourth-grade pills, or even less.

In the Dou Qi Continent, alchemists command very high fees, resulting in a very high premium for pills; the value of the raw materials is incomparable to that of the finished product.

Du Can's willingness to exchange fourth-grade pills for these medicinal herbs is already a huge concession.

Sure enough, after hearing what Du Can said, the snake-man tribe leader hissed and gasped again.

After all, they are snakes, so they probably like to hiss.

It's a pity about the Tagor Desert; because the cool air is being drawn away, it will probably get even hotter.

"Are you perhaps an alchemist?"

The snake-man tribe chief said in disbelief.

"Exactly."

Du Can spoke frankly and frankly.

There's no point in hiding this; after all, alchemists are the noblest profession on the Dou Qi Continent, and anyone who says it will show respect.

Sure enough, after hearing Du Can's frank confession, the snake-man tribe leader's attitude became noticeably more respectful, and his tone softened, losing its provocative edge.

"My esteemed guest, perhaps we had a small misunderstanding before, please don't take it to heart."

Alchemists are highly respected. Even the snake people will treat human alchemists with courtesy and try their best not to offend them.

The snake-man tribe leader then became very polite and spoke to another subordinate.

"Go! Quickly tidy up the reception room! We must treat this distinguished guest well!"

The snake-man next to him was a little confused, but after seeing the leader wink at him, he immediately understood and was about to run to tidy up the reception room.

"No need for that. There's no need for meetings or anything like that. The leader just needs to agree to the deal."

"Agreed! Of course I agree! Please, esteemed guest, stay here. My tribe will certainly treat you with the utmost sincerity!"

The snake-man tribe leader had a sincere look on his face.

Du Can nodded.

Then, he simply grabbed it.

The elements between heaven and earth rapidly converged according to his thoughts, gathering in a hidden corner of this snake-man tribe.

There, there is a peculiar stone door leading underground.

The stone door swung open the next second. Several medicinal herbs flew out from it, streaking through the air before quickly arriving in front of Du Can.

These are exactly the medicinal herbs that Du Can needs.

Du Can didn't just randomly pick any item; he had already used his mental power to confirm that the snake-people tribe's underground treasure vault contained the medicinal herbs he needed, which is why he flew over to trade with them.

Now that the other leader has agreed to the deal, it doesn't count as robbery.

"Thank you for the transaction, Chief. I have received the final payment. I will refine a Grade 4 pill for you shortly. May I ask which Grade 4 pill you would like?"

Du Can carefully stored the medicinal herbs in his storage ring before asking his question.

"This...this...this...how is this possible?!"

The snake-man tribe chief was completely incredulous. Right under his nose, they had snatched their tribe's precious medicinal herbs from their treasury, and he hadn't even had time to stop them.

The opponent's strength is probably greater than he expected, so he must be more cautious.

"Ahem... Fourth-grade pills are not in a hurry for now. I've heard that alchemists expend a lot of energy when refining pills. Would you like to rest here for a day and refine the pills tomorrow?"

"It's alright, I'm full of energy right now. It's just a fourth-grade pill, it won't take too much time. Tell me quickly, what kind of pill do you want? If it's common, I'll refine it directly. If it's not so common, you'll have to provide the formula."

Du Can waved his hand, urging the snake-man tribe leader to quickly state his conditions.

The other party was clearly still planning something, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.

Seeing that the other party had not agreed at all, the snake-man tribe chief thought to himself that he had heard that alchemy was also very time-consuming, and since the other party took the initiative to make medicine, perhaps he could prolong the time.

"Hmm... I wonder if you could help me refine a Nourishing Essence Pill?"

The Nourishing Essence Pill is a low-grade fourth-rank pill used to repair internal injuries that the body cannot recover from. This medicine is effective for experts at the Dou Ling realm, and its effect is even more pronounced for those below the Dou Ling realm.

Some people, after suffering irreparable internal injuries, may be unable to improve their strength, or may even experience a significant decline.

After taking this elixir, internal injuries will be effectively healed. At that time, one's strength will at least return to its original level, and there may even be a possibility of further improvement.

After hearing about the pills the other party needed, Du Can thought for a moment. He did indeed know how to refine such pills.

Then, he used his mental power to search through the other party's treasure vault.

"I'm sorry, it seems your medicine storehouse doesn't have all the necessary herbs. Please choose another one."

Chapter 125 The advantage of the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill lies with me!

Du Can actually has the relevant medicinal materials in his storage ring, but he wouldn't generously use his own medicinal materials to refine pills for others.

That's a different price.

In the Dou Qi Continent, there are relevant regulations that stipulate that all material costs, labor costs, and mental distress expenses incurred by alchemists during the alchemy process shall be borne by the person seeking the medicine.

Du Can naturally used the medicinal materials of the seeker to refine the seeker's medicine.

If the person seeking the medicine does not have the necessary ingredients, then there is no point in refining it.

If the other party treats you with sincerity and doesn't resort to underhanded tactics, he might even suffer a loss and use his own materials to fill the gap.

As for now, let's forget about it.

"Uh..." The snake-man tribe chief was somewhat annoyed by the other party's ransacking of his treasure vault, but he still maintained a relatively calm expression.

"Practice whatever you want, guest. I don't know of any suitable fourth-grade pills."

The snake-man tribe leader directly handed the choice to Du Can.

After thinking for a moment, Du Can took away a considerable amount of medicinal herbs from the treasure vault.

The snake-man tribe chief felt a pang of heartache upon seeing the medicinal herbs that had been taken away.

Those were the raw materials used to refine the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill. Although they were not as precious as the several medicinal herbs that Du Can had taken away before, they were still very rare.

If this so-called alchemist ruins the ingredients, he will kill the other party regardless of whether they are a real alchemist or not.

"This is fine. The others are too rubbish. I don't even want to refine them."

At this moment, Du Can could finally understand a little bit what Yao Lao felt when refining low-level pills.

It would be incredibly boring if it weren't for dealing with transactions (or training disciples).

Du Can extended his right hand, from which a blazing emerald green flame erupted. Instead of taking out the medicine cauldron, he directly threw all the medicinal herbs into the flame in his right hand at once.

With his current strength and spiritual power, he is confident that he can successfully refine even a seventh-grade pill, as long as he has the formula and ingredients.

Refining fourth-grade pills is something anyone can do.

Countless medicinal herbs shattered under the scorching heat of the flames in his palm, either gradually releasing pure medicinal powder or melting into liquid. Impurities were instantly removed by the high temperature generated by the strange fire, leaving only the purest part.

The snake people below were stunned.

"Chief, something seems off. Aren't alchemists supposed to need a cauldron to refine medicine? How come this person is refining medicine empty-handed?"
