Chapter 112 Trading
Medusa's face was solemn. Although in her perception, Xu Haoyu and Zi Yan should only be at the Dou Wang level, the energy contained in their bodies made her feel terrified.
Especially Xu Haoyu, his suppressed and restless aura gave her a feeling of destruction. If she dared to take action, she would be the one to die in the end.
In addition, although Zi Yan was inferior in all aspects, she gave her a special feeling, as if she could suppress her by blood.
Only Qinglin did not pose much of a threat to her, but instead made her feel quite close to him.
Who are these three people?
Medusa, as the queen of the snake people, was by no means a brainless person. On the contrary, she was extremely intelligent. At this moment, she opened her red lips slightly and blurted out in a cold and solemn voice:
"Who are you?"
When Xu Haoyu saw this beautiful snake person, he immediately guessed her identity. In the desert, the only snake person with such strength and beauty was Queen Medusa. There was a flash of amazement in his eyes. She was indeed a beauty worthy of being the heroine.
It just so happens that since the other party has come to him, he doesn't need to look for him anymore. Xu Haoyu said:
"If my guess is correct, you should be Queen Medusa. Let's make a deal. I will use a sixth-grade Douling Pill in exchange for three Sand Mandalas."
Using a sixth-grade pill to exchange for only three medicinal herbs, Medusa's face showed a touch of emotion. This was definitely a huge profit for her.
Although she no longer needs the Douling Pill with her strength, she is the queen and has eight snake tribe chiefs under her. These chiefs are all Dou Kings. Taking the Douling Pill can increase their strength by one star, which makes it really difficult for her to refuse.
This was exactly what Xu Haoyu was thinking. He was too lazy to get involved in meaningless arguments. He could refine as many sixth-grade Douling Pills as he wanted in exchange for three Sand Mandalas. It would be fine as long as he felt it was good value for money.
Medusa nodded slightly. She couldn't refuse this deal, but then she stared at Xu Haoyu and said:
"I have no reason to refuse this deal, but I want to know your background so that I can confirm whether you really have the Douling Pill."
Xu Haoyu said frankly:
"As for me, you can call me Xu Haoyu. I just graduated from Canaan College. I am a sixth-rank alchemist. The pills used for trading are all made by me personally."
what!
Medusa's eyes widened. She thought that Xu Haoyu was born into an extraordinary family, so he could possess the sixth-grade Douling Pill. She didn't expect that this young man was actually a sixth-grade alchemist himself.
She was a little bit hesitant to believe it, but the power hidden in the other person seemed to mean that there was no need for him to lie.
Xu Haoyu was getting a little impatient. He was still thinking about getting the herbs quickly. He reached out and touched the ring on his finger, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand. There was a pill in it, which was the Douling Pill.
"If you don't trust me, the pills are right here. Just one word to decide whether to trade or not."
Xu Haoyu had a headache. He wondered whether he should learn from Han Feng and customize a set of alchemist clothes, embroider a medicine cauldron on the chest and the word "Xu" on the back.
Medusa narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the elixir. She looked at Xu Haoyu, Zi Yan, and Qing Lin and said:
"Of course, we will trade, but the herbs grow in the Holy City. I don't have them on hand, so I need you to come with me to the Holy City."
Xu Haoyu's expression eased slightly. He asked himself whether his strength or his identity as an alchemist would allow him to come and go freely in the holy city of the snake people, so he nodded and said:
"Okay, let's go now."
Then turning to Zi Yan, Qing Lin said:
"I'm going to the holy city of the snake people. You guys should come with me, or go back to Stone Desert City and wait."
Zi Yan said carelessly:
"Of course we'll go together."
Qinglin also whispered:
"Me too." After making the decision, Xu Haoyu, Zi Yan, Qing Lin followed Queen Medusa and turned towards the holy city of the snake people.
Finally, before dark, they arrived at the holy city of the snake people. Under the leadership of Medusa, they successfully entered the city.
Although both the residents and soldiers of the Snake People were extremely wary of Xu Haoyu and the other two, no one dared to step forward to make things difficult for them since Medusa did not say anything.
In the palace!
A female snake person, who should be the captain of the guards, came with a group of snake person guards to welcome Medusa back to the palace:
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
Medusa glanced at her and said:
"Hua She'er, take people to the medicinal garden and pick three of the best quality Sand Mandragora."
Hua She'er was a little confused, but she was loyal and didn't say a word:
"As ordered!"
After answering, he immediately turned around and left, probably following Medusa's instructions to go to the medicine garden to pick Sand Mandragora.
Not long after, the flower snake came back with a tray in his hand. On the tray were three medicinal herbs, which were coiled like snakes. It was the Sand Mandragora.
Medusa looked at Xu Haoyu again and said:
"Master, these are the three sand mandalas you requested."
Xu Haoyu walked forward, looked at the herbs, and after making sure there was no problem, he put them away. At the same time, he placed the jade bottle containing the Douling Pill on the tray.
"Okay, the deal is done."
When Hua She'er saw all this, she immediately understood that this was a deal. She immediately took the jade bottle and swung her snake tail to Medusa's side.
Medusa picked up the jade bottle, opened it, and poured out the pill. As a peak Douhuang powerhouse like her, she still had some vision and experience. Just by looking at the quality and smelling the fragrance of the medicine, she could be sure that this was indeed a Douling Pill of excellent quality.
Then, she put the elixir back into the jade bottle, put the jade bottle back into the tray, and said to Hua She'er:
"Hua She'er, this Douling Pill is a reward to you. Swallow it and refine it now to see how much your strength can be improved."
Hua She'er was shocked and moved:
"Her Majesty the Queen..."
But her Majesty the Queen looked at Xu Haoyu again and said:
"Master, it's getting late now, why don't you stay in the Holy City for one night."
Xu Haoyu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, looked at Medusa and said calmly:
"Just tell me what you have to say, or if you think there is something wrong with this pill."
Medusa took a deep breath. There was one thing that had been bothering her for a long time. She said with a burning gaze:
"This elixir should be real. I did have other reasons for leaving you here. As far as I know, even Gu He, the elixir king of the Gama Empire, can't just take out a Douling Pill. The fact that you can just take out a Douling Pill shows that you can refine better elixirs. You said you are a sixth-grade alchemist. I wonder if you can refine other sixth-grade elixirs, such as the Huangji Pill or even the Pozong Pill."
This woman is quite smart. Xu Haoyu can easily exchange medicinal materials with Douling Pills, which means he can indeed refine better pills. Her guess is not wrong at all.
To be honest, Gu He's Dan King is actually quite watered down. Xu Haoyu is much stronger than him now.
Xu Haoyu said calmly:
"You guessed right. I can refine both the Imperial Pill and the Sect Breaking Pill. But can you afford the price?"
Although they are both sixth-grade elixirs, the Huangji Pill and the Pozong Pill are much more valuable than the Douling Pill.
