However, Jiang Shichang had repeatedly provoked her; how could she just let him go?
So she chuckled and gave a nod as she answered, “It’s really offensive. I already said that such small things are not comparable to my worth. But, Young Master Jiang’s keen interest prompted me to accompany him to bet. Now that you both have said this, it’s clear that I can’t be a wager anymore.”
“I’ll tell you what! How about I bet you three Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pills?” She proposed with a gleam of laughter in her eyes.
Gasps could be heard all over the place as soon as she said the words. The sound of a teacup breaking was also heard from one of the rooms. That was the room occupied by the middle-aged and the elderly man. The two initially observed the hustle and bustle below, believing that the bet would fail, but who could have predicted that they would hear three such medicinal pills?
Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill? Really Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill? The Breakthrough Pill had not yet passed the fifth grade in their Cardinal Point City, yet this woman spoke of the sixth-grade one! Was she telling the truth? Was it possible that she had the pill with her?
For a moment, they were both excited, especially the elderly man, who was so ecstatic that he accidentally broke his teacup and splattered tea on his robe. He just stared at the woman in red while asking the middle-aged man seated next to him.
“Was what I heard correct? Is it Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill?”
“Yes, you heard correctly. What she said is the Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill. How valuable is the sixth-grade pill, let alone the Breakthrough Pill?” the middle-aged man took a deep breath to calm himself. “Don’t get too excited,” he cautioned. “Perhaps it’s just a vain hope.”
“How can I not be excited? Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill!Don’t you know that with the Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill I can surpass my current cultivation level to enter the Celestial and gain another 200 years of life? At that point, I won’t have to worry about my longevity issue…”
The elderly man took a deep breath and felt his heart racing, nervous, perturbed, restless, and excited, to the point where sweat oozed from his brow and his palms were wet.
The others were even more shocked. Three Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pills? Sixth-grade medicinal pills were highly valuable, but Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pills were so rare and precious that even one hundred thousand rock crystals and ten spirit herbs aged a thousand-year-old were not enough to purchase one.
For a brief moment, everyone’s attention was focused on her. They were examining her thoroughly, with shock evident in their eyes.
All three of Jiang’s family were also stunned. Jiang Shichang looked in awe at the calm woman in red and asked, “You, you have Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pills? How is that possible!”
“Miss, are you talking about the Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill? Is it really Sixth-order Breakthrough Pill?” The Jiang family’s Great Elder and Third Master also opened their mouths to ask. Their voices contained eagerness as they were staring fixedly at Feng Jiu.
Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill! If such a treasure existed, they would be able to advance from Celestial to Immortal Sacred using the Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill!
Their hearts soared as they had this thought. Immortal Sacred rank! Now if only they had the Sixth-grade Breakthrough Pill…their Jiang clan would have an Immortal Sacred Strong Exponent’s Patriarch as well as an Immortal Venerable Strong Exponent’s Old Predecesor…
