Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 25 How could Tang San be the kind of person who takes all the benefits and then just walks away?

Xiao Hongchen felt betrayed by his own sister, but they had already made arrangements, and going back on his word now would seem like a sore loser. "I'll take it easy for now, we'll start tomorrow."

"it is good."

After Meng Hongchen agreed, she took Xiao Hongchen to the hospital. Jing Hongchen followed. Xiao Hongchen had just been beaten, and this was the perfect time to tell him that there are always people more capable than himself and that he should be more restrained.

Only Xiao Hongchen, who had just been beaten, could listen to what Jing Hongchen was saying. Therefore, after giving a few instructions to Teacher Jingyun, who had called Xiao Hongchen over, Jing Hongchen left.

Xiao Qiang inquired about the location of the auction house from Teacher Jingyun, then ate something and took a soul-guided taxi to the auction house. Because the sealed milk bottles were not yet ready and in use, soul-guided cars were operated by soul masters injecting soul power on-site, making them extremely expensive.

Fortunately, Xiao Qiang has just received financial assistance from Jing Hongchen, so he is not short of money for the time being.

After sitting in the car for about thirty minutes, Xiao Qiang arrived at the Sun and Moon Royal Auction House. Before he could even enter the auction house, a staff member approached him respectfully and said, "Excuse me, is this distinguished guest here to participate in the auction? Please show your invitation."

Xiao Qiang certainly didn't have an invitation, but he had the identity given to him by Jing Hongchen. When Xiao Qiang took out the identity card representing Jing Hongchen's disciple, the staff immediately became even more respectful.

"So you are a disciple of Master Mingde. My apologies. Please follow me." Upon seeing the identity token representing Jing Hongchen's disciple, the staff member immediately disregarded any invitation and led Xiao Qiang directly into the auction house.

Stepping into the magnificent auction hall, Xiao Qiang instantly gained a concrete understanding of the phrase "golden and resplendent."

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the floor beneath his feet, Xiao Qiang seriously suspected that it was made of pure gold, rather than some so-called gold plating.

Soon, the staff led Xiao Qiang to a luxurious room. Xiao Qiang chose a sofa and sat down. The moment he sat down, the sofa in the Sun and Moon Royal Auction House made Xiao Qiang feel that he had probably never sat on a sofa before.

As soon as Xiao Qiang sat down, a beautiful young woman who had been waiting in the room knelt before him. "Distinguished guest, I am Ruoshui, a staff member of the Sun and Moon Royal Auction House. How may I help you?"

"I need pills or rare herbs that can remove drug residues from a four-ring Soul Master's body, as well as medicines that can steadily improve the strength of this four-ring Soul Master afterward."

"Distinguished guest, the pill that removes drug residue from the body of a four-ring Soul Master is the Marrow Cleansing Pill. The starting bid is 500 million gold soul coins. If you wish to purchase this pill in advance, you will need to increase the bid by 20%. In addition, you will need the Soul Ascension Pill, which will help this four-ring Soul Master steadily improve. Normally, it is a pill that can increase the soul power of a five-ring Soul King by one level, but it can also be taken by a four-ring Soul Master. The price is 30 gold soul coins. If you wish to purchase it in advance, you will also need to increase the bid by 20%."

"A Soul Ascension Pill? It can raise a five-ring Soul King's soul power by one level? What does this have to do with the Soul Ascension Pill?"

"Distinguished guest, the Soul Ascension Pill is a pill created by our Sun Moon Empire. People from the Douluo Continent once coveted the recipe for our Soul Ascension Pill, but we have extremely strict control over the secret recipes of pills. Therefore, they only obtained an incomplete recipe and made the Soul Ascension Pill, which can only raise the Soul Venerable level by one level."

"So the pills were completely copied from Douluo Continent?" Upon hearing Ruoshui's words, Xiao Qiang also thought of what Xuan Ziwen said in the original Douluo Continent 2: the Sun Moon Empire was also the world's number one in alchemy.

"Yes, distinguished guest, it's not just the Soul Ascension Pill. There's a Xuanming Sect on the Douluo Continent. Their most famous pill is the Xuanshui Pill, which is a low-quality improved version of their Xuanwu Divine Pill. And their Xuanwu Divine Pill is a low-end improved version of our Sun Moon Empire's Sun Moon Divine Pill."

"The Sun and Moon Divine Pill? Is this pill available for purchase?"

Ruoshui shook her head. "The Sun and Moon Divine Pill is our most high-end elixir; only families of Title Douluo might possess such a pill."

"I understand. Wait a moment while I ask someone."

As Xiao Qiang spoke, he dialed the soul communication device, and soon Teacher Jing Yun answered the call.

"What is it?"

"Here's the thing, Teacher Jingyun. I'm currently at the Sun and Moon Royal Auction House, preparing to purchase a Marrow Cleansing Pill for 500 million gold soul coins and a Soul Ascension Pill for 30 gold soul coins. Should I bid 20% higher and buy it now, or wait for the auction and save more money by bidding normally?"

"As for the Soul Ascension Pill, just buy it by raising the price. If you put it up for auction, the price is usually over 50 gold soul coins. As for the Marrow Cleansing Pill, it can only be used by people below the sixth-ring Soul Emperor. But the only people below the sixth-ring Soul Emperor who can afford it are those with a powerful background. People with a background can take pills from birth with negligible side effects, so there is no need for them to take the Marrow Cleansing Pill. So you can basically buy it at the starting price."

"However, both of these pills are too early for you right now, especially the Marrow Cleansing Pill, which is not a pill you should be taking at this time."

"It's like this, Teacher Jing. Back when I was at the East China Sea Junior Soul Master Academy, I owed Vice Dean Bai Qingshan a lot of favors. Before, my strength was still weak and I had almost no money. Now that I have some money, I want to repay Vice Dean Bai Qingshan in some way."

"I understand, those two pills weren't for you."

After Xiao Qiang understood the normal price, he hung up the soul communication device and looked at the girl beside him.

"I bought the Soul Ascension Pill in advance, and I'll wait for the Marrow Cleansing Pill at the auction."

"Yes."

…………

"You mean Xiao Qiang is going to spend over five million to prepare elixirs for the Four Rings Soul Sect, who helped him before?"

Inside Mingde Hall, after Xiao Qiang asked Jing Yun about his situation, Jing Yun quickly relayed it to Jing Hongchen.

"Yes, Master."

"Not bad, a grateful little guy."

"Although you generally don't encounter those guys who take all the benefits and then leave without giving anything back, it's still good that you haven't met them."

"Master is joking. Even if such a person exists, he won't last long."

"Not long? Hmph, that famous person surnamed Tang can go a very long way." As the powerful and influential head of Mingde Hall, he obviously knew more details about many things.

"A famous person with the surname Tang?" Jingyun was full of questions.

Among famous people with the surname Tang, the one who has lived a long life and fits both of these criteria seems to be only Tang San, right?

But... that's impossible. How could Tang San be the kind of person who takes all the benefits and then just walks away?

They say he was a perfect person.
