Chapter 409 Reactions from all parties
Three days later, in a pavilion in Chaos City.
Several figures dressed in black robes were gathered here, sitting around a table.
"Let's hear your opinions, everyone."
A man with a face full of pimples spoke first.
"What else is there to say? If we can't crack this, our ointment shop business will be finished!"
Another fat man sneered.
The people sitting around at this moment were none other than the managers of several major demon palaces in Chaos City.
Of course, the manager of the Blood Tower was not here.
The purpose of these people sitting here was naturally to discuss how to deal with the new Ascension Ointment that had suddenly appeared in the Blood Tower.
Xiao Bai, the steward of the White Bone Tower, looked at the silent crowd, then took out an iron box from his pocket, skillfully opened it, took out a yellow stick, and then pinched it between his thumb and forefinger, and a flame appeared at his fingertip.
Xiao Bai put Huang Zi in his mouth, tilted his head to light the tip, took a deep breath, and then leaned back comfortably in his chair.
call!
As a wisp of yellow mist was exhaled, a refreshing fragrance immediately filled the entire private room.
"I'm not trying to be mean, but compared to this stuff, the Ascension Cream from our several buildings is really trash."
Xiao Bai closed his eyes, feeling the slowly increasing true energy within his body, and spoke slowly.
Silence fell over the private room for a moment.
"Manager Xiao, have you lost your mind?! Don't you know how well your White Bone Tower's Soul-Severing Ointment is selling lately?"
Someone snorted coldly and said.
"Sales have dropped by half, and that's after we lowered the price."
Xiao Bai chuckled.
“Our building tried to wrap the Ascension Ointment in this kind of oil paper for sale, but firstly, the fishy smell could not be removed, and secondly, it could not eliminate the resentment and evil spirits in the body at all. Of course, this move slowed down the decline in sales.”
On the other side, a middle-aged woman spoke slowly.
"Fairy Luo is indeed swift in her actions, but this is only a temporary solution and not a permanent one. The only way to solve this problem now is to find the pharmacist who made the yellow pills."
Someone glanced at the woman and said slowly.
"Easy for you to say! We've lost seven or eight spies in our building, and their bodies are still hanging at the entrance of that blood-soaked tower!"
Someone snorted coldly.
"So, the reason I gathered everyone here today is precisely for this matter?"
“If one family goes alone, they will naturally return empty-handed, but if several families go together, I doubt the Blood Tower will dare to say anything.”
The fat cultivator from Wangyue Tower spoke slowly at this moment.
"Heh heh, do you think the Blood Tower people are fools? If you push them too far, they might pull off a 'two peaches kill three warriors' stunt, or even cooperate with the Immortal Alliance, making things even harder to handle!"
Xiao Bai sneered.
"Damn it, then tell me, what do we do?!"
Someone was shouting.
"Cooperation is the only option."
Xiao Bai took another puff of Huang Zi, and then slowly said.
"What the hell, a collaboration?"
Some people are puzzled.
"Take the money and materials to the Blood Tower, or exchange some ascendants or lower beings for a chance to cooperate."
"If we can get a foothold in this business, I think we might as well dabble in the Immortal Alliance as well."
Xiao Bai's tone became excited as he spoke.
Immortal Alliance?
Everyone frowned at the thought of that enormous creature.
Although their Demon Palace also produces Ascension Ointment, their Ascension Ointment is too potent to be sold to the Immortal Alliance.
But if it's this Yellow Crane's skull.....
Everyone's breathing quickened. If they could leverage such a large market as the Immortal Alliance, what terrifying profits would they reap?!
"Do you understand now? We shouldn't be thinking about internal strife, but rather working together to target a larger market."
Xiao Bai chuckled.
Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat tempted, but of course, the prerequisite for this cooperation depended on the Blood Tower.
Meanwhile, Ding Yi at the Blood Tower branch received his first batch of dividends.
A full 100,000 Soul Crystals!
This soul crystal is a solid crystal made from the souls of those who worship gods in the lower realms.
Ordinary cultivators can use soul crystals to cultivate, but neither the speed nor the effect can compare to the Ascension Ointment made by ascended beings.
The purchasing power of these 100,000 soul crystals is equivalent to 100,000 taels of gold in the lower realm, which can be described as a true wave of financial freedom.
But Ding Yi touched the soul crystal box that had been delivered to him, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
This money came too easily. It might be normal for others, but it's not normal for the Demon Palace.
This is because they're certain I won't be able to spend the money.
Ding Yi sneered, then took out a brush and wrote the words "Remove tracking, remove toxins" on the box containing the soul crystal.
After waiting a few seconds without seeing any prompts appear, Ding Yi reached out and lifted the lid, putting all the soul crystals inside into his tattoo.
Next, Ding Yi put some stones into the box, closed the lid, sealed it, and placed it in the corner of his bedroom.
After doing all this, Ding Yi returned to the main hall, preparing to burn incense and bathe before beginning his cultivation of the Five Elements Mending Heaven Scripture.
But just then, the sound of footsteps reached Ding Yi's ears.
Ding Yi frowned, only to find a woman with a graceful figure walking in.
This woman had fair skin, willow-leaf eyebrows, and almond-shaped eyes; she was a beauty of unparalleled grace.
The hem of her short skirt was only about an inch long, but what was even more captivating was that this short skirt had a slit when she walked.
As it swayed, glimpses of its hidden parts were revealed, which certainly caught the men's attention and made them feel like they were being pried open by a cat.
"Pharmacist Ding, my name is Bai Xiang. From now on, I will be the one delivering materials to you."
Bai Xiang walked up to Ding Yi and bowed slightly, and immediately the two balls started to shake uncontrollably.
Ding Yi glanced at the woman and sneered, saying:
"Get out of here right now! My pig essence is top-notch!"
Bai Xiang was taken aback upon hearing this. He looked at Ding Yi with some confusion, then suddenly smiled and continued:
"Pharmacist Ding, it's good to have more people to assist you."
Ding Yi glanced at the white incense, then suddenly grinned and said:
“Great! It just so happens that I haven’t had such tender, white meat in a long time. You can stay here.”
Upon hearing this, the woman's expression changed instantly. She stood there staring at Ding Yi for a few moments, then covered her mouth and giggled sweetly:
"Pharmacist Ding is joking, then I won't bother you any longer."
After speaking, the woman slowly withdrew from the main hall, seemingly not wanting to linger any longer.
As soon as the woman left the main hall, a man approached her.
"How about it?"
Gu Feng frowned as he looked at the woman and asked.
"No, he's too wary."
Bai Xiang shook her head.
"Your seductive arts didn't work?"
Gu Feng could hardly believe it.
"I didn't dare use it. If it were discovered, it would be bad."
Bai Xiang said.
"trouble."
Upon hearing this, Gu Feng pondered for a moment, then said:
“Those old guys ganged up on me yesterday and tried to put pressure on me, wanting a piece of the pie in Huang Heluo’s business. If we can’t handle Ding Hai, our profits will shrink a lot.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiang's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately had an idea.
She smiled slightly and said:
"I think he's quite concerned about that pig demon. Why don't we start by targeting that pig demon?"
