Chapter 55: Recently, I’ve been drained of qi and blood a bit too harshly
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided.
As the current Patriarch of the Luo Family, Luo Ping, was sitting quietly in the seat of honor.
His expression was slightly exhausted, with dark circles faintly visible under his eyes.
He silently bowed his head, dealing with the stack upon stack of family trifles and various political affairs of Qingshi Town on the desk.
He wondered what had been going on lately?
During this period, he always felt somewhat weak, with his Qi-Blood Force slightly depleted.
This feeling was as if all the energy in his body had been drained.
“Could it really be that I’ve been too exhausted lately from handling the political affairs of Qingshi Town?”
Luo Ping thought silently to himself.
However, after a moment, he shook his head to himself.
Although dealing with these matters every day was indeed tiring.
But there was no other way, who made him the current Patriarch of the Luo Family?
Perhaps he was just born to a life of toil!
In the room, Luo Ping continued to lower his head, dealing with political affairs.
At this moment, however, Luo Changfeng had already arrived with his hands clasped behind his back.
He walked emotionlessly into this room.
“Elder Changfeng?”
Upon noticing those subtle footsteps, Luo Ping suddenly raised his head.
But what he didn’t expect was.
The person before him turned out to be the Elder of his own family.
“Handling political affairs?” Luo Changfeng looked at the high stack of affairs on Luo Ping’s wooden desk.
His lips twitched slightly.
Luo Ping, this fellow, was not overly clever.
Often, he seemed quite ordinary.
It seemed as if, aside from having borne an excellent son, this fellow appeared somewhat useless.
But now it seemed…
Luo Ping was of some use after all.
At least, this huge pile of family or Qingshi Town affairs was not something ordinary people could resolve.
“Yes…”
Luo Ping nodded silently and then stood up somewhat rigidly.
After approaching Luo Changfeng, he dared to continue speaking, “I don’t know why, but lately I’ve been feeling mentally exhausted and somewhat weak in body…”
“Just yesterday, I even had the family physician take a look at me.”
“The physician said that it was just extreme exhaustion from recent times and that I needed to rest more.”
“Is that so?” As Luo Changfeng listened, he silently nodded.
Even, in the next moment.
He turned his head, looking at Luo Ping with deep dark circles and a face full of tiredness.
He couldn’t help but murmur to himself, “It seems I’ve been a bit too harsh in drawing off the Qi-Blood Force recently…”
And as the two of them fell silent, the atmosphere in the room gradually became somewhat awkward.
Luo Changfeng suddenly took out a white porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
“Try this?”
Luo Ping asked, “Patriarch Changfeng, this… what is it?”
“Blood Replenishing Pill, it can replenish the Qi-Blood Force within the body in an extremely short amount of time!”
“Blood Replenishing Pill???” Hearing what Patriarch Changfeng had said, Luo Ping couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
He looked at the white porcelain bottle in Luo Changfeng’s hand.
He was somewhat stunned.
Medicinal herbs, these were something that virtually any moderately powerful family wouldn’t lack.
Even those herbs that were older and more potent in medicine, they would have some.
But elixirs…
Whether it was for the Luo Family within Qingshi Town or for those top families within Huai Shui County.
Elixirs are an extremely precious and rare resource for cultivation.
Even the lowest tier elixirs, considered of the lowest class,
would always be snapped up crazily by countless clan powers once they appeared in the world.
“Is this for me?”
Luo Ping swallowed his saliva and carefully took the white jade porcelain bottle from his ancestor’s hand.
Then, he opened it.
He put it in front of his face and sniffed.
In an instant, a rich scent of elixir wafted over.
And just by smelling it, Luo Ping could clearly feel his spirits lifting significantly.
The Qi-Blood Force within his body also started to circulate faster at this moment.
“Is this a Blood Replenishing Pill?”
“Just by smelling it, there is such a noticeable effect; this elixir must be at least of the upper tier low class, right?”
Luo Changfeng shook his head and said softly, “No, it’s not upper tier low class…”
“Could it be that it’s an exceptional tier low class elixir?” Luo Ping became somewhat excited, his breathing even quickened.
“It is not exceptional tier low class either, but rather common exceptional tier…” Luo Changfeng said softly.
“What? Common exceptional tier?!!”
Luo Ping’s eyes widened in shock, and his pupils involuntarily contracted sharply.
He looked at the white porcelain bottle in his hand.
For a moment, he even forgot to breathe.
A common exceptional tier, this was a common exceptional tier elixir.
If judged by the lowest market price, a common exceptional tier elixir would cost at least a thousand taels of gold to purchase just one.
And that was even calculating it at the lowest market price.
If calculated at the normal market price, the cost could be three to five times higher, or even tenfold was not impossible.
And now, he was holding a white porcelain bottle with ten elixirs in his hand.
Which meant, if handled properly,
this bottle of common exceptional tier elixirs in his hand could be sold for an exorbitant price of at least two to three hundred thousand taels of gold!
“Patriarch Changfeng, such a precious and rare elixir, you’re just giving it to me?”
“If it’s taken out and handled well,
“it could sell for a high price of two to three hundred thousand taels of gold.”
“It seems somewhat wasteful to use it like this…”
Luo Ping looked at the white porcelain bottle in his hand, his expression seeming a bit complex.
“It’s not really a waste.”
“As long as the medicinal herbs are sufficient, we can have as many Blood Replenishing Pills as we want.”
“I have nine more bottles of Blood Replenishing Pills in my courtyard, with grades ranging from common lower tier to common exceptional tier.”
“Later, go to my place and take them.”
“Afterwards, dissolve those Blood Replenishing Pills in water and have the clan members take them.”
“For a clan to develop and grow stronger, relying solely on some high-end combat power is far from enough.”
“The combat capabilities of the mid to lower tier clan members also need to be enhanced.”
Patriarch Changfeng said calmly with his hands behind his back.
A moment later, Luo Changfeng left the room.
Now, only Luo Ping remained in the room, holding a white porcelain bottle.
At this moment, Luo Ping was still immersed in what Patriarch Changfeng had just said and hadn’t snapped back to reality.
“If what Patriarch Changfeng said is true…”
“Could it be that all these elixirs were refined by Patriarch Changfeng himself?”
“When did Patriarch Changfeng learn such profound alchemy skills?”
“Could it have been learned from that old fellow Wang Kun?”
“But the elixirs in the bottle I’m holding are all common exceptional tier. If that old fellow Wang Kun could really refine elixirs of this grade, why would he still be just a nominal disciple among the many branches of the Wan Dan Sect?”
“This doesn’t seem to make sense…”
Luo Ping slightly bowed his head, contemplating this in his mind.
But the more he thought about it, the more of a headache he felt.
