On the way back to his own family, he could feel the difference between first-rate families and second-rate families.
The members of the first-rate families were strong and possessed abundant resources.
No wonder his father wanted to elevate the familyâs status; to raise the name was to increase the resources.
However, without great strength, one could not shoulder the weighty responsibility of a first-rate family.
As soon as Jiang Tang entered the high-altitude domain of the Lai Family, he was spotted by the clanâs disciples and the Family Head was informed.
When he arrived at the high sky above the family compoundâs gate, his father and the Elders, along with some elite disciples, were there to greet him.
Descending from the skies, Jiang Tang saw his father and relatives whom he hadnât seen in five years, his face flushed with excitement.
âHahaha, my son has returned,â laughed Family Head Lai.
This time, he had secretly sent someone to deliver Spirit Stones for his son to purchase Supreme Elixir, a decision agreed upon by the Elders in the family.
They had already discussed that this news must not leak out as it could endanger his son, who was buying the pills.
It would also bring danger to their family.
Sending so few Spirit Stones, they did not have high expectations for how many Supreme Elixirs their son could bring back.
A single pill could be worth a city, and the auction held by that Alchemist fetched high prices, making the pills difficult to obtain, even with wealth.
Seeing his son, who hadnât returned for five years, made him very happy, and like the other Elders, he hoped his son could procure a few elixirs, enough for himself and the Great Elder to each receive one.
That was already asking for much.
This wish was partly due to his sonâs acquaintance with the Alchemist, hoping for a part-gift, part-purchase deal.
Jiang Tang, welcomed by so many people, was unaware of how many knew he was returning with pills.
There wouldnât be enough for everyone in the group, let alone two different kinds of pills per person.
With this in mind, Jiang Tang realized if people knew they could always have their way, they would likely feel less obligation.
Glancing at his father and the three Elders in the family, he came up with a plan.
The Great Ancestor must have his share, and that was to be made public.
Therefore, he would only reveal ten pills, keeping the other ten for his own distribution.
He would use two, give two to both his mother and grandmother, and reserve the remaining for himself.
If necessary, he would give two more to his father.
Jiang Tang planned this hoping to take advantage of his youth and become much stronger through this batch of elixirs â he used to think a Golden Core was powerful, but his experience in Immortal Venerable City with Nascent Soul Su Changâan, who ascended to Ocean Wheel after consuming the pills, changed his perspective.
Since Jiang Tang could use an Avatar to protect them at Ocean Wheel, he too needed to become very strong, so he wouldnât need othersâ protection and could safeguard his family himself.
Jiang Tang listened to the inquiries from his brothers, his father, and the Elders.
He gave brief answers, saying the experiences of the past few years were too numerous to share in one go, and he would chat with his brothers more when there was time.
Family Head Lai instructed the elite disciples to disperse and led his son and the three elders into the Council Hall.
He closed the great door behind them and activated the Formation.
Family Head Lai, unable to contain his curiosity, hastily asked his son,
âLinâer, did everything go smoothly with buying the pills?â
âYoung Master Lin, how many pills did you buy?â the Great Elder was even more eager to know if he had a share.
The other Elders also looked on with expectant eyes, as they would have asked sooner if not for the crowd earlier.
They had waited until they were inside to ask, so as not to give away any secrets.
âFather, this time when Luo Yaxuan and I bought Pills back, it was really dangerous.
We almost got killed for our treasures by a powerful individual.â
As soon as Lai Jianlinâs words fell, Family Head Lai anxiously asked,
âThe young master of the Luo Family also brought back Pills?
Were there other familiesâ young masters as well?
Who was trying to rob and kill for the treasure?â
âIt seems the Luo Family stands unshakable!
Already a first-rate family, and this time theyâve purchased Supreme Elixirs.
Thereâs no way for us to surpass them now,â the Great Elder said.
âBut if we had Pills, could we surpass the other first-rate families?
As long as they couldnât buy Supreme Elixirs.â
âFather, Elders, so far, I havenât heard of any other families here managing to buy Supreme Elixirs.
Even if they did, they couldnât have bought many.
They can only be procured at auctions.
As for which powerful individual was robbing, my Cultivation is too low to know.â
No sooner had Lai Jianlin finished speaking, than what the Elders were even more eager to know was how many Pills were bought.
âSo, exactly how many Pills have you brought back?â Elder Sann asked.
âRight, right, will there be enough for us to divide amongst ourselves?
If thereâs not enough, splitting them halfway is also fine, right?â Elder Er said.
Lai Jianlin looked at the Elders and decided.
Just like he had initially thought, he would reveal the number of Pills he had bought.
He didnât know that Luo Yaxuan had hidden the same information from their family members; they really were like brothers.
âFather gave me Spirit Stones, and in Immortal Venerable City, I was aware of the auction prices for the Supreme Elixirs.
Being able to buy even one with that amount of money was already quite good.
So, I found Alchemist Jiang Tang, whom I knew.
He generously gave me two types of Supreme Elixirs, which can be taken together for an even better effect.â
âWhat Pills are those?â Family Head Lai asked with eager and excited eyes, looking at his son.
He had also heard about several Supreme Elixirs at the auction and initially thought that acquiring just the Vitality Pill would be quite fortunate.
Listening on, their excitement grew.
It looked like his son had made a substantial gain, not only buying one type of Pill but two kinds of Supreme Elixirs.
Lai Jianlin used his Divine Sense and had already separated the Pills into individual bottles when he thought of dividing them.
He took out ten bottles of Pills from his Storage Bag and placed them on the table in front of everyone.
Lai Jianlin introduced them, saying: âThis one is the Vitality Pill, which can strengthen the bodyâs abilities, enhance the Spiritual Root, and improve the meridians.
The other one is the Nourishing Soul Pill.
Itâs said that with a strong Divine Sense, one can create an Avatar, just like the powerful individual who used Divine Sense to snatch Pills this time.â
âWow, these are all good medicines.â Family Head Lai opened a bottle and sniffed.
He had seen high-grade Pills before but had never seen Supreme Elixirs.
The quality of these was indeed different.
âSo, how shall we divide these Pills?â the Great Elder asked.
The other Elders were already itching to grab them with their hands but refrained due to decorum, though their eyes betrayed their eagerness.
They picked up a bottle to witness what the Supreme Elixirs looked like.
âGood medicineâŚâ
âThis time, we only bought ten Pills.
I also gave all the money I had with me to the Alchemist, which is why he could gift us two additional Pills.
I hope that you can share these ten Pills among yourselves, and thereâs also a portion for our ancestor,â Lai Jianlin continued with his fabricated story, knowing that some peopleâs greed knows no bounds and they would think he had hidden a lot.
âSon, weâll do as you say.
Our ancestor will also get a portion.
The three Elders and I will share whatâs here, and the family will later compensate you with more money.
Do the three Elders have any objections?â
No sooner had Family Head Lai finished speaking, than the three Elders felt that the young master hadnât taken out all the Supreme Elixirs yet.
