Chapter 270: Chapter 118 Alchemy Master! Bull Demon King!_3

The tall, burly man wearing a bull-man mask walked by, drawing the attention of many people on the street, who all took note.

Naturally, this man in the bull-man mask was Su Changkong, who had made even more preparations this time; not only had he concealed his looks and identity, but he had also activated the Giant Whale Skill’s internal technique Long Whale Inhales Water, sucking in a stream of air to accumulate inside his body, causing his figure to swell in size. His frame was already tall and robust, but now it had become one in ten thousand!

Under the effect of Long Whale Inhales Water, as long as Su Changkong didn’t engage in any strenuous activity or physical exertion, there was no consumption of energy, and he could maintain this state for several hours without a problem.

“Ding ding dang dang!”

Su Changkong sat down by the street, placing the bag he was carrying on the ground and opening the wrapping inside. It was filled with porcelain bottles of ordinary design. The clinking and scraping of the bottles made a crisp sound.

“Selling Qi-Blood Pills! Qi-Blood Pills at a big discount sale! Limited quantity, first-come-first-serve!”

Then, Su Changkong cleared his throat and, like a street vendor, started his sales pitch with a rough voice.

This loud voice in the silent Ghost Market was particularly jarring and astonishing, since everyone who came here did not want to draw attention. Such boisterous hawking instantly attracted a huge amount of attention.

Su Changkong also knew selling such a large amount of Qi-Blood Pills would inevitably attract attention, so he might as well be open about it!

“Hmm? Selling Qi-Blood Pills?”

The information conveyed by Su Changkong’s shouting also made many people nod slightly in acknowledgment.

Many apprentice alchemists who were just starting to learn Alchemy often produced pills of extremely poor quality that were hard to sell on the market. Usually, they would choose to sell them at low prices in the Ghost Market. In their view, this bull-headed man must be doing the same.

Still, some people were attracted.

A man wearing a rooster mask approached with a shrill voice, “Qi-Blood Pills? How much are you selling them for?”

“One bottle has 10 pills, 15,000 silver taels per bottle, not sold individually,” Su Changkong replied in a deep voice.

“1,500 silver taels per pill?”

The man in the rooster mask neither agreed nor disagreed upon hearing the price.

At 1,500 silver taels for a pill, it was actually very cheap. In Dafeng State City, there were only a few powers that could sell Qi-Blood Pills, all of which had limited production and offered limited supplies. With demand surpassing supply, a single Qi-Blood Pill was priced between 2,000 and 2,500 silver taels.

The Qi-Blood Pills sold by the man in the bull-man mask were probably of inferior quality; otherwise, he wouldn’t be selling them at such a low price.

The man in the rooster mask then asked, “Can I open a bottle to check it?”

“Be my guest,” Su Changkong naturally didn’t refuse.

The man in the rooster mask opened the bottle, and immediately from the stopper, an intense medicinal fragrance wafted out, boiling one’s blood and bringing comfort to the entire body!

“These… these Qi-Blood Pills…” The man in the rooster mask poured out a pill and inspected it closely in his palm. His eyes widened in disbelief, “This quality… it’s better than the Qi-Blood Pills I’ve seen at the Feng Family Shop?”

Typically, only big clans and powerful forces had the resources to cultivate alchemists, whose majority of concocted pill medicines were internally consumed, with only a small portion being sold externally.

Therefore, in Dafeng State City, those who could sell Qi-Blood Pills were generally the big powers and families that had developed high-level alchemists capable of producing such pills.

Qi-Blood Pills bought in the black market were usually of average quality.

However, the man in the rooster mask, looking at the blood-red, rounded, intensely aromatic pill in his hand, was dumbfounded. Where were these inferior-quality Qi-Blood Pills? They were in fact the best quality he had ever seen, undoubtedly crafted by an Alchemy Master!

“You just said… how much?”

The man in the rooster mask swallowed and couldn’t help but ask again, better quality yet lower price?

“15,000 taels a bottle, ten pills per bottle, I don’t care to repeat myself a third time!”

Su Changkong responded dismissively, his demeanor arrogant and domineering.

“One bottle… get me one bottle!”

Once the man with the rooster-faced mask confirmed his request, he gritted his teeth and immediately took out his money, fearing that Su Changkong might change his mind.

Money exchanged hands, and goods were delivered, as Su Changkong completed his first transaction!

“They’re selling Qi-Blood Pills over there, and they’re cheaper than the market price while being of better quality?”

This scene astonished the onlookers.

“It couldn’t be a shill, could it? The two must be in cahoots, trying to deceive us. This is the Ghost Market; everyone here is sharp. Who would fall for that?”

There were also skeptics who sneered, believing that the man with the rooster-faced mask was in league with the Bull-man.

“Hmm? The quality of these Qi-Blood Pills… It’s even higher than those of the Spirit Medicine Pavilion?”

“Only 1,500 silvers for one?”

But then some people came over to take a closer look, and they were shocked—the quality of the Pill Medicine couldn’t be faked!

“15,000 silvers for a bottle of ten! No individual sales! Excellent value for money! Limited quantity, first come first served!”

Su Changkong seized the opportunity to shout his sales pitch.

More and more people gathered around, each one incredulous. There were nearly a hundred bottles of Qi-Blood Pills at his stall, all of exceptional quality, clearly the work of an accomplished Alchemy Master. And yet, the price was so low it made one suspicious of foul play!

“How can you sell these high-quality Qi-Blood Pills for so cheap? Are you sick in the head?”

Someone couldn’t help but ask. Could it be that they were dealing with a prodigal son from a major family who had stolen his family’s pharmacy stock to sell?

“I like it that way, it’s none of your damn business! If you’re not buying, piss off!”

Su Changkong, with his rough and irritable demeanor, was ready to explode with anger at anyone who dared provoke him. His imposing stature, along with the fierce Bull-man mask, provided significant intimidation, scaring the inquirer into retreating repeatedly.

“And you there, looking is fine, but don’t lick with your tongue!” Su Changkong was busy attending to various matters.

“I’ll buy a bottle! No… two bottles!”

“I don’t have enough money, only enough for two pills… The brother over there, are you also buying Qi-Blood Pills? How about we buy a bottle together?”

The scene erupted into chaos, as the Qi-Blood Pills of such high quality were being sold for such a bargain that those who missed out now wouldn’t find such a deal again. Su Changkong’s stall was besieged, and almost everyone in the Ghost Market had crowded around, with many eager to make a purchase.

Those who could afford to visit the Ghost Market were generally wealthy, and with Su Changkong’s reasonable prices, he had no shortage of buyers!

“Damn it! You dare try to steal from me?”

Others wanted to take their chances amid the chaos, reaching through the crowd to grab one of the porcelain bottles filled with Qi-Blood Pills, but Su Changkong snorted coldly, reaching out to grab the thief’s wrist and squeezing hard.

“Aaah! Sir Bull… I was wrong, let go… Spare my life!”

Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking and agonizing screams, the thief’s wrist was crushed, and he wailed and begged for mercy.

“If it wasn’t for the sake of good business, I would tear you apart! Get lost!”

With a growl, Su Changkong’s murderous gaze flicked his hand violently, flinging the man out of the crowd like a small chicken. His Bull-man mask only added to the chilling effect, instilling an involuntary fear in everyone’s hearts.

It was as if they were witnessing the Bull Demon King himself!
