Exploding God

Chapter 1111 An Unreasonable Request

"Ambergris!"

When someone couldn't help but exclaim the name, the breathing around them became noticeably heavier.

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes slightly. [Dragon Saliva Liquid] was a term he had never heard of before, and judging from the reactions of the people around him, it was clear that this substance was extremely useful to the martial artists of Wuyuan Lu.

"There really is one—"

A low, almost inaudible murmur reached Lu Ze's ears, but it couldn't escape his keen hearing; it was Zhang Xinghuo's voice.

Lu Ze turned his head slightly and saw that the girl was staring intently at Yan Wenchang on the high platform, her eyes filled with longing and... determination.

So, what exactly is ambergris?

The question flashed through Lu Ze's mind, but he didn't rashly ask Zhang Xinghuo, as any common-sense question could reveal his identity.

And there's clearly a more suitable candidate to answer this question—

Yan Wenchang was the mastermind behind this scheme, who fully exploited human nature!

Truly capable people understand how to manipulate others by exploiting the underlying logic of human nature, subtly persuading them. Those who are slow to grasp human nature often become pitiful victims, easily manipulated.

Lu Ze calmly looked at the figure in the green robe on the high platform, who was waiting for the atmosphere to develop. His eyes were calm, but a faint mockery flashed in his eyes.

The web weaver's eyes held both self-admiration and pity for the pitiful creature; according to the script, it's time for you to unleash your magnanimity.

At the very moment his thoughts arose, Yan Wenchang on the stage actually took a step forward, raised his right hand, and pinched a glass bottle about 12 centimeters long between his index finger and thumb, which looked just like a glass bottle of soda.

However, the liquid inside was emerald green.

Lu Ze stared at the bottle with great interest, while everyone present turned their attention to the platform.

Yan Wenchang seemed quite pleased with the feeling of countless eyes focused on him. He smiled and said, "With your sharp eyes, you can clearly see the quality of this bottle of ambergris. It is a flawless jade color, a genuine product of the Tantai family. It is incomparable to those rare inferior products on the black market."

These words immediately drew nods of agreement from the martial artists below.

Everyone agreed on the quality of this bottle of ambergris, especially since the bottle opening was sealed with the unique Azure Dragon Seal of the Tantai family, which further guaranteed its quality.

Yan Wenchang, with an arrogant look in his eyes, slowly moved the dragon saliva liquid in front of everyone to display it, and said: "If those inferior dragon saliva liquids are top-grade medicines for martial artists, then the Tantai dragon saliva liquid in my hand is a holy medicine for reviving the dead and restoring flesh and bone. I believe that everyone here has some hidden injuries, and after this trip, you will all be able to return to your peak."

The surrounding crowd became even more agitated.

……

"With such a sacred medicine in supply, how could the Tantai family not be powerful! Has anyone here ever heard of a Tantai family martial artist missing an arm or a leg?"

"I heard from my distant cousin's illegitimate son that his great-uncle had the good fortune to accompany the Tantai family's exploration team to the Ice Fir Lands. He witnessed the Tantai family patriarch, who had been impaled in the chest by a thorn spider, emerge from his tent unscathed the next day after soaking in dragon's saliva overnight!"

"hiss--"

"So extravagant! They're actually soaking their entire bodies in ambergris?"

"It's unimaginable; only the Tantai family could pull off something like this."

The fact recounted by a martial artist immediately drew envious glances.

……

However, Lu Ze's gaze became quite strange.

According to Yan Wenchang and those around him, isn't this so-called ambergris just a biological cell repair fluid from Earth?

The jade-green color indicates a very high concentration, resembling undiluted repair solution.

This substance, which is widely used on Earth, has become a holy medicine for healing that countless martial artists flock to in the Mist Plains.

Martial artists on Earth often return to their own organizations after a battle to receive free recovery and treatment.

The high-level martial artists of Wuyuan Riku risked their lives just to undergo a cell repair procedure.

Completely opposite procedures!

Lu Ze looked at Zhang Xinghuo, whose breathing was obviously rapid, and prepared to put another guess in his heart into practice.

"Spark, is there any ambergris liquid better than that of the Tantai family?"

"Huh?" Zhang Xinghuo turned around, his eyes filled with surprise. "How is that possible! The quality of the Tantai family's products has always been the best. Even the ones on the black market are just diluted and mixed versions of the Tantai family's dragon saliva liquid."

"I've known about medicine since I was a child. Although other ambergris may have different herbs added, after removing the herbal flavors, the most intense flavor is still the unique taste of Tantai ambergris."

"One bottle of pure ambergris like this can be used to make at least three bottles on the black market!"

A look of doubt flashed in the girl's eyes as she looked at Lu Ze and asked, "Brother Lu, have you perhaps seen other families possess dragon's saliva?"

Lu Ze shook his head. "No, it's precisely because I've never seen it before that I'm curious."

"Indeed, there have been many other rumors over the years, but only the Tantai family and vassal families like the Yan family can reliably produce dragon saliva liquid."

At this point, Zhang Xinghuo bit his lip and asked in a low voice, "Brother Lu, are you determined to get the Dragon Saliva Liquid?"

The girl tried to keep her voice calm as she asked the question, but the nervousness in her eyes was impossible to hide.

Lu Ze shook his head. "I don't have anything I'm determined to get. My main purpose in coming here is to experience the local customs and culture. However, the reward of the Crimson Jade Coins is quite unexpected."

The casual tone of his words immediately made the girl's eyes light up.

"Brother Lu, the destination is Guangxi Ancient Land, will you still participate?"

"Why not participate?"

"Well... Brother Lu, how about we travel together for a while?"

Looking at the slightly apprehensive girl, Lu Ze smiled and said, "Okay."

Zhang Xinghuo clenched his fist tightly, his eyes filled with excitement.

Looking into Lu Zeming's bright eyes, she hesitated to speak, but thinking of her brother's situation, her gaze hardened, and she said with some shame, "Xinghuo has a favor to ask, I wonder if Brother Lu would be willing to part with it?"

"Speaking."

Lu Ze's gentle gaze gave Zhang Xinghuo a lot of courage. She took a deep breath and said, "I advanced to the Eight-Star level four months ago. I usually rely on my older brother for survival, so I am no stranger to combat."

After she finished speaking, she saw Lu Ze nod gently and continued, "The reason Xinghuo said that is because she wants it to be just the two of us in the team. So... could you give me the two bottles of Dragon Saliva Liquid, and Brother Lu can take the two Crimson Jade Coins?"

After listening, Lu Ze asked gently, "The Crimson Jade Coin is quite valuable, and for martial artists, it is a life-saving medicine when they are exhausted."

"But ambergris is my brother's life-saving medicine... Xinghuo came here for my brother, and strictly speaking, ambergris is priceless and there is no market for it. Xinghuo is getting a good deal. If Brother Lu can part with it, Xinghuo will do his best to help."

Zhang Xinghuo's gaze was resolute.

"it is good."

Lu Ze smiled and agreed.

Because she was so decisive, the girl was stunned for a moment before a joyful smile blossomed on her face.

"Thank you, Brother Lu!"

Zhang Xinghuo was finally relieved.

"So the medicine bag from earlier was also for your brother?" Lu Ze suddenly asked.

"That... is for my own use."

The girl hesitated for a moment, but ultimately answered truthfully.
