Chapter 134 The Head of the Jade Cauldron Profound Sect's Pill Hall
Without hesitation, she immediately took out a jade bottle and handed it to Han Yi.
Han Yi frowned slightly, suspicion rising in his eyes: "I can't accept a free lunch. Shopkeeper, please state the price clearly."
The middle-aged woman's smile remained unchanged, and the sharp glint in her eyes was undiminished.
"Young master, there is no need to doubt. This is just a very common pill in our pill hall. You may accept it."
Han Yi looked at the jade bottle, which was crystal clear and made of mutton fat white jade. The bottle was smooth and engraved with exquisite cloud patterns, as if swirling with clouds and mist.
The bottle neck is slender, and the cap is inlaid with a dazzling gemstone that gleams faintly, clearly indicating that it is not an ordinary product.
"I don't like owing favors, so please tell me the price, sir."
The middle-aged woman smiled continuously and spoke slowly.
"Young master, there's no need to be so polite. These are just a few ordinary pills, not worth much. Consider them a token of my friendship with you. I hope you will accept them."
Her gaze remained fixed on Han Yi, trying to discern any changes in his expression.
Han Yi remained silent for a moment before finally reaching out to take the jade bottle: "Thank you very much."
Having obtained the elixir, Han Yi exchanged brief pleasantries with the old woman before preparing to leave.
"Thank you, sir. Until we meet again," Han Yi said coldly.
The old woman smiled calmly and nodded, saying, "Please take care, young master."
The group turned and left, their figures gradually disappearing into the crowd.
After they left, a pretty young woman, about nineteen years old, dressed in a light blue dress, walked gracefully to the old woman's side, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes filled with confusion, and she asked her in a low voice.
"Aunt, why did you give them the entire bottle of Rejuvenating Purple Pills? Elder Wang bestowed them upon you; are you really going to let them have them so easily?"
The old woman looked in the direction Han Yi had left, a deep meaning flashing in her eyes, and she slowly spoke.
"Ling'er, don't talk nonsense. I see that young man has an extraordinary temperament and is definitely not someone to be trifled with. If we befriend him today, it may be of great benefit to us in the future!"
The girl called Ling'er was still somewhat unwilling, pouting as she said, "But that Spirit Restoration Purple Pill is too precious! Giving it away so easily is such a loss!"
The old woman patted her hand gently and spoke with a smile.
"Look at the bigger picture. In this world, you have to give up something to gain something. I have a feeling that this young man will cause quite a stir in Qingmu City in a few days, and our efforts will surely be rewarded!"
The old woman gave Han Yi the Rejuvenating Purple Pill without any regret. She stood there quietly, her gaze deep and resolute, as if deep in thought.
Although her cultivation level was only at the minor completion stage of Core Formation, she had absolute confidence in her ability to judge people, and she had never been wrong about anyone over the years.
The young man at the head of the group exuded a unique aura, mysterious and powerful, making it impossible for her to see through his cultivation level.
The two women beside him were also shrouded in mystery, making them difficult for her to understand, especially the woman in green.
As for the thirteen followers, she could clearly sense that they were all at the Core Formation stage, with strength comparable to hers.
"To reach the initial stage of Core Formation at such a young age is something few can do. For someone like him to be willing to serve as his follower, this young man is no ordinary person!"
The old woman spoke softly, her eyes gleaming.
Thinking of the faint aura emanating from the thirteen people, it was a unique quality that they had acquired through numerous battles and trials.
She knew in her heart that the young man in the lead had a limitless future.
They are like stars hidden in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to shine brightly.
The Rejuvenating Purple Pill I gave away today was just a tiny investment.
The old woman tilted her head slightly, gazing at the distant sky, her thoughts drifting away.
She seemed to see the tumultuous waves that the young man in white robes would unleash in the future martial arts world, and she herself might bring unexpected opportunities to the Pill Hall, or even the entire Jade Cauldron Profound Sect.
A faint smile unconsciously crept onto her lips, and she felt even more that the pills were well worth the gift.
The old woman's eyes were resolute; she had already made up her mind.
When dealing with such benefactors, it's essential to do their favor properly, but without being overly deliberate.
He immediately summoned his servants and said, "Make arrangements immediately. Use the connections of our Jade Cauldron Profound Sect Pill Hall in Greenwood City to provide convenience for that young master at all costs. Remember to let things take their natural course and don't be too deliberate."
The attendant hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Manager, to what extent exactly do you expect?"
The old woman narrowed her eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Try to meet any needs they have in Qingmu City, but don't be too deliberate. Let everything happen naturally so that they can feel our goodwill without even realizing it."
Upon receiving the order, the attendants immediately took action, leveraging the Jade Cauldron Mystic Sect's connections in Greenwood City to provide Han Yi and his companions with numerous benefits in various aspects.
The innkeeper personally led his staff to clean the rooms until they were spotless, and even prepared precious incense. The carriage shop owner carefully inspected every detail of the carriage and laid out extremely soft cushions. The shop assistants were also on high alert, ready to greet Han Yi and his party with the utmost enthusiasm the moment they appeared.
At first, Han Yi and the others didn't notice any of this. As they wandered around Qingmu City, they gradually realized that no matter where they went, they could enjoy special treatment and care.
Han Yijing sat in a superior room at an inn in Qingmu City, his long, slender fingers gently caressing the warm, smooth jade bottle, his eyes deep and unfathomable, as if trying to see through the bottle.
"This pill is of good quality; just one pill can heal all of Lu Xuefeng's injuries."
Su Yao, who was standing to the side, spoke slowly, her voice cold and indifferent: "There is no such thing as a free lunch. You have received such a generous gift from her, so you will probably have to pay a price in the future."
Han Yi slowly raised his head, his gaze falling on Su Yao, a faint smile appearing on his lips: "I've healed someone's injuries and even shielded someone from a knife. I wonder how she will repay me?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yao frowned slightly and cursed, "You lecher!"
She spoke again after a long time.
“We had never met her before. For her to give us such a precious gift out of the blue and to secretly take care of everything for us, she must have something in mind.”
Han Yi gently shook the jade bottle in his hand, making a crisp sound.
"So what? Everything in this world is about transactions and calculations."
Su Yao snorted lightly, somewhat displeased, and said, "You're quite easygoing!"
Han Yi's smile deepened.
"There's always a way out. I, Han Yi, have a lot of debts, but as the saying goes, 'the more debts you have, the less burden you carry.'"
