Chapter 3827: Selfless

“The Mackerel Fruit… Fantasy Grass… and Jade Magnolia Flower?”

Duan Ling Tian saw the various things he wanted in the past but failed to obtain when he arrived at the place where the many medicinal herbs and ingredients were displayed.

In the past, Linghu Ren Jie had tried to help Duan Ling Tian search for these things, but the search was futile. After all, the ingredients were quite rare, and as soon as they appeared, they were quickly taken away. After all, they were ingredients used to refine assistive king-grade divine pills and were in high demand.

When Duan Ling Tian looked at the Divine Pills that were on display, he found that their prices were much higher than the cost of the ingredients combined. This was not surprising since even with the ingredients, it was not easy to refine those king-grade and lord-grade divine pills. Since he was a divine alchemist, it would naturally be more cost-effective for him to buy the ingredients and personally refine those divine pills.

‘Based on the ingredients they have here, it seems like it won’t be long before I break through and become an advanced King of Gods,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his eyes brightened.

He began to select ingredients and medicinal herbs he needed. The things he chose would cost almost 40,000 contribution points.

After setting the things down on the counter, Duan Ling Tian smiled as he asked the elder behind the counter, “Elder, shouldn’t I be eligible for a discount considering how much I’m spending? Does the sect sell this at a wholesale price?”

The elder chuckled. “Duan Ling Tian, I don’t have the authority to give you a discount. If I were an ordinary businessman, I’d definitely give you a discount. Alas, these things belong to the sect, and I have no say at all.”

Duan Ling Tian was not surprised by the elder’s response. Moreover, he had only casually asked the question and did not hold much hope for a discount. Perhaps, in the future, the sect might hear about this and consider giving him a discount.

Just as Duan Ling Tian was about to leave the Internal Affairs Pavilion, he received a message from Dongfang Yan Nian.

“Little Tian, are you still at the Internal Affairs Pavilion?”

Duan Ling Tian wondered briefly why Dongfang Yan Nian was looking for him before he replied, “Brother Yan Nian? Yes, I’m still at the Internal Affairs Pavilion. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“I’ll meet you there now,” Dongfang Yan Nian said, “Please reserve three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills for me. I’ll give you 10,000 contribution points for each of them.”

Duan Ling Tian replied, “Brother Yan Nian, I’ll give them to you if you need them.”

“No. Although we’re friends, I can’t take things from you without giving anything in return. It’s good enough that you’re keeping three of the pills for me. If I’m not mistaken, a group of people is flocking toward you now to buy the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.”

Sure enough, as soon as Duan Ling Tian received this message, he heard a huge commotion.

“Duan Ling Tian’s there!”

“Duan Ling Tian, sell me a few of your Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills!”

“Duan Ling Tian…”

Before Duan Ling Tian could reply to Dongfang Yan Nian, a group of people had already swarmed toward him. Most of them were White Dragon Elders of the Flying Dragon Sect.

When he saw the number of people wanting to buy the Vein Recovery Divine Pills, he felt his head ache. Although he had expected a huge demand for the pills, he did not expect so many people to show up so soon.

At this moment, everyone was looking at him like a starving wolf eyeing its prey.

“Elders, I only have three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills left since I just sold three. Perhaps, you should all discuss among yourselves to decide who I should sell the pills to. As for the price, it’d be 10,000 contribution points each.”

Duan Ling Tian still had a little conscience so he did not raise the price despite the high demands.

As soon as Duan Ling Tian’s voice fell, someone said, “Duan Ling Tian, I’ll give you 12,000 contribution points for a Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill. Sell it to me!”

Another person quickly said, “I’ll give you 15,000 contribution points for one pill!”

“I’ll give you 50,000 contribution points for the three remaining pills!”

Everyone began to raise the price one after another, hoping to obtain the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.

When Dongfang Yan Nian arrived, two White Dragon Elders had already raised the price to 100,000 contribution points for three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.

‘Three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills for 100,000 contribution points?!’ Dongfang Yan Nian was shocked. Then, he smiled wryly as he said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, “Little Tian, I only have fewer than 80,000 contribution points now. Can I pay you the rest later?”

Dongfang Yan Nian felt extremely embarrassed at this moment. He was reluctant to take advantage of Duan Ling Tian, but he really did not have many contribution points at the moment.

“Brother Yan Nian, what are you talking about? They’re simply raising the price on their own. I didn’t even have a chance to talk,” Duan Ling Tian said with a hint of helplessness.

Then, the impromptu ‘auction’ ended when one White Dragon Elder raised the price to 110,000 contribution points, and Duan Ling Tian finally had a chance to speak. He said, “Elders, I believe all of you want the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills due to the impending Imperial War. However, I only have a few pills left, and I don’t intend to sell the pills at such a high price. Since this elder bid the highest price at 110,000 contribution points, I’ll pick him. However, the price would still be 10,000 contribution points each. I can still refine the pills for you, but you’ll need to prepare the ingredients yourselves, and I’ll charge a fee for refining them. You can either pay with contribution points or rare ingredients. I’ll list the ingredients after this.”

Following that, Duan Ling Tian gave three Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills to Dongfang Yan Nian and another three to another White Dragon Elder. With that, he obtained 60,000 contribution points. Then, he listed down the rare ingredients he needed that he could not find in the Internal Affairs Pavilion earlier. They were either sold out or unavailable due to their rarity.

At this moment, one of the elders gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up and said, “Duan Ling Tian, you’re the first inner disciple I admire! You could’ve earned so many contribution points, but you didn’t take advantage of us. In the future, I’ll definitely support you if you decide to become the sect leader!”

Duan Ling Tian only smiled and said, “It’s not right to raise the price when the Imperial War is drawing closer. I also wish that everyone will be able to survive the war.”

The crowd’s gaze changed slightly when they looked at Duan Ling Tian at this moment. All of them were filled with admiration when they saw how upright he was.

“I’ve only heard about your heaven-defying talent in the past, and I thought that you’re really lucky. However, after meeting you today, I feel like you really deserve everything you have so far.”

“He’s really kind and selfless! Perhaps, that’s why the heavens helped him become an intermediate King of Gods at such a young age!”

Duan Ling Tian could not help but blush when he heard the praises. He did not think he was that selfless or kind. If it were not because of the Imperial War and that the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills could determine the life or death of elders and disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect, he really wanted to profit from them as much as possible. He really did not expect everyone to praise him so much and even thought of him as the future candidate for the position of Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect. They praised him so much that he wondered if the sect leader would think he had intentions of usurping his position. Needless to say, the sect leader did not make trouble for him over such a trivial matter. If anything the sect leader would find him commendable since his actions could help the Flying Dragon Sect during the Imperial War.

…

‘It seems like what I said to Hua Tian Du about becoming a Lord of Gods before the Imperial War might actually come true…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself when he saw the ingredients that the elders had sent to him in exchange for the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills. He was going to use all these ingredients to refine divine pills that were useful to Kings of Gods.
