Chapter 309: The Harem Protects the Master
Chen Yu was preparing a new recipe in the alchemy room when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
He leaned outside and saw a dozen monks gathered at the door of the alchemy room, their noses twitching as they greedily inhaled the fragrance wafting in the air.
"This smell..." a monk in a blue Taoist robe sniffed, "It's even more fragrant than elixir."
"Nonsense." A red-dressed female cultivator nearby rolled her eyes, "Who doesn't know about Chen Yu's snacks?
Even the young master of the Demon Sword Sect came to buy it in person."
Chen Yu retracted his head and chuckled. He had just been researching the recipe for the hot pot base, extracting the essence of chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, and adding a little bit of the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill to create this alluring aroma.
Just as he was about to continue the experiment, there was a sudden noise outside.
"Get out of the way! The Immortal Sword Sect is doing business!"
A young man in a white robe and with a jade sword on his waist rushed to the door of the alchemy room with several disciples in a menacing manner.
"I am Bai Yutang, the deputy head of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Immortal Sword Sect," the young man said, clasping his fists. "I heard that Fellow Daoist Chen developed a medicinal elixir that can enhance cultivation, so I came to seek his advice."
Chen Yu frowned. The Immortal Sword Sect was the enforcer of the cultivation world, always looking down on others. They had suddenly come knocking, so they probably had no good intentions.
"Master Bai, you're joking." Chen Yu said with a smile, "These are just some small things. They are not worthy of your attention."
"A trifle?" Bai Yutang sneered. "It's said that even Mo Han from the Devil Sword Sect bought your elixir. You still call that a trifle?"
"Um..." Chen Yu scratched his head, "Those are just some snacks."
"Snacks?" A cold glint flashed in Bai Yutang's eyes. "I think you're disguising the pills as snacks to evade the sect's control."
"It's unfair." Chen Yu said innocently, "These are all recipes passed down from my ancestors. I won't cheat anyone."
"Inherited from ancestors?" Bai Yutang snorted coldly, "Then hand over the recipe and let us at the Law Enforcement Hall examine it."
"This..." Chen Yu said in embarrassment, "This is a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors and cannot be passed on to outsiders."
"It can't be spread outside?" Bai Yutang's face darkened. "Are you trying to resist the inspection by the Law Enforcement Hall?"
"I dare not." Chen Yu waved his hands repeatedly, "It's just that this formula really can't..."
"If that's the case," Bai Yutang waved his hand, and several disciples immediately gathered around him. "Then don't blame us for being rude."
At this moment, a chill suddenly descended from the sky. Lin Qingxue stepped into the air, the jade pendant emitting bursts of cold light.
"Bai Yutang," Lin Qingxue said coldly, "Are you trying to force me to buy you?"
"Junior Sister Lin." Bai Yutang's expression changed. "Why are you here?"
"Why can't I be here?" Lin Qingxue stood in front of Chen Yu. "Chen Yu is my friend. If you want to touch him, first ask the Bingpo Jade Pendant in my hand if it agrees."
"That's right." A red shadow flashed by, and Liu Ruyan also appeared beside Chen Yu. "If you want to bully our Chen Yu, you have to see if this flame fan of mine will agree."
Chen Yu was delighted when he saw the two women standing on his left and right to protect him.
It feels so good to be protected by a beautiful woman.
"You..." Bai Yutang's expression shifted from gloomy to bright. Lin Qingxue was the last disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect's Grand Elder, and Liu Ruyan was the Fire Spirit Sect's favored daughter. He couldn't afford to offend either of them.
"Why?" Lin Qingxue sneered, "Is this all the courage the Law Enforcement Hall has?"
"Hmph." Bai Yuting gritted his teeth and said, "This matter is not over yet!" Then he turned and left.
"Wait." Chen Yu suddenly stopped him and took out a bag of potato chips from his cloth bag. "Don't be angry, Master Bai. Try my new snack."
Bai Yuting took the potato chips, looked at them suspiciously, but couldn't help but open it and taste a piece.
"This..." Bai Yutang's eyes lit up. "What a good thing! How many spirit stones are there?"
"One hundred thousand a pack." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"What?" Bai Yutang almost threw the potato chips away, "You're robbing me!"
"If you don't want to buy it, forget it." Chen Yu shrugged. "Mo Han has already ordered a hundred bags anyway."
"Give me fifty packs." Bai Yutang gritted his teeth and took out a storage bag.
"Master Bai is straightforward." Chen Yu took the storage bag, "I'll give you five more packs of special flavors."
After Bai Yuting left with the potato chips, Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan turned around and glared at Chen Yu at the same time.
"You bastard." Liu Ruyan pinched Chen Yu's face. "You were pretending to be so pitiful just now, and now you've screwed me over."
"That's called business acumen," Chen Yu said proudly. "Besides, isn't this just giving you face?"
"Give us face?" Lin Qingxue snorted coldly, "It's obvious that they want us to be their shield."
"No way." Chen Yu took out two small boxes from his cloth bag. "This is a new formula specially prepared for you. I guarantee it's ten times stronger than the ones just now."
"A new formula again?" Lin Qingxue took the box. "Could they have added something weird to it?"
"This time, we're serious," Chen Yu said. "I extracted the essence of the hot pot base and added the medicinal power of the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill. The effect is definitely good."
Liu Ruyan opened the box, and inside were crystal clear candies, emitting an enticing aroma.
"This is called the Spicy Immortal Pill," Chen Yu explained. "After eating it, not only will it improve your cultivation, but it will also allow the immortal and demonic powers in your body to merge perfectly."
"Is it true?" Liu Ruyan picked up one doubtfully.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in. An old man in a black robe appeared out of thin air, followed by several demon cultivators with gloomy faces.
"Young friend Chen Yu," the old man said sinisterly, "I am Hei Wuchang, the elder of the Demon Pill Sect. I heard that you have developed a pill that can improve your cultivation?"
"Another one." Chen Yu rolled his eyes. "What day is today? Why are they coming one after another?"
"My friend, you are joking." Hei Wuchang said with a smile, "I am here to do business."
"Business?" Chen Yu looked at him warily. "What business?"
"I heard that the elixir you sold to the Demon Sword Sect was very effective." Hei Wuchang said, "I wonder if you could sell the formula to the Demon Pill Sect?"
"I'm sorry." Chen Yu shook his head. "The recipe is inherited from our ancestors and cannot be passed on to others."
"Heirloom?" Hei Wuchang sneered, "How could a mortal like you get this ancestral formula?"
"Well..." Chen Yu scratched his head, "I can't sell it anyway."
"Can't sell it?" Hei Wuchang's face darkened. "Then don't blame me for being rude."
He waved his hand, and the demon cultivator behind him immediately took out his magic weapon, and the air was filled with black air and murderous intent.
"Wait." Liu Ruyan unfolded the flaming fan. "Want to take action? First ask me if this fan agrees."
"And me." Lin Qingxue's jade pendant emitted a cold light. "If you want to bully Chen Yu, you have to see if I agree."
"Two fairies," Hei Wuchang said with narrowed eyes, "This is my Demon Pill Sect's business, please don't interfere."
"Interfere?" Liu Ruyan sneered, "Chen Yu is our man. If you touch him, you're touching us."
"That's right." Lin Qingxue said, "If you want to fight, just come on. Let's see which is stronger, your demonic energy or my ice."
Chen Yu hid behind the two women and secretly gave them a thumbs up. This feeling of being protected by beautiful women was simply too good.
Hei Wuchang looked at the magic weapons in the hands of the two women, then looked at Chen Yu's smug expression, his face changing from gloomy to bright.
"How about this," Chen Yu suddenly said, "I have a batch of newly developed medicinal pills here. Would Elder Hei like to try some?"
"A new elixir?" Hei Wuchang's eyes lit up. "What effect does it have?"
"This is called the Devil Flame Pill." Chen Yu pulled out a bag of potato chips from his cloth bag. "It's specially developed for demon cultivators. It's even more effective than the one for the Devil Sword Sect."
Hei Wuchang took the potato chips, looked at them suspiciously, but couldn't help but taste one.
“This…” A hint of surprise flashed in Hei Wuchang’s eyes, “Good stuff!
How many spirit stones?"
"Two hundred thousand a bag." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"What?" Hei Wuchang almost threw the potato chips away, "You are robbing me!"
"Forget it if you don't want to buy it." Chen Yu shrugged. "The Demon Sword Sect already bought a hundred packs anyway."
"Give me a hundred packs." Hei Wuchang gritted his teeth and took out his storage bag. "We can't let the Demon Sword Sect take all the credit."
"Elder Hei is straightforward." Chen Yu took the storage bag, "I'll give you ten more bags of special flavors."
After Hei Wuchang left with the potato chips, Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan glared at Chen Yu again.
"You bastard." Liu Ruyan pinched Chen Yu's face. "Just now you were pretending to be so pitiful, and in the blink of an eye you've cheated someone out of 20 million spirit stones."
"That's called business acumen," Chen Yu said proudly. "Besides, isn't this just giving you face?"
"Give us face?" Lin Qingxue snorted coldly, "It's obvious that they want us to be their shield."
"How about this." Chen Yu took out two bottles of drinks from his cloth bag. "This is the Immortal Demon Fusion Dew I just developed. Drink it and I guarantee your cultivation will increase significantly."
"Again?" Lin Qingxue looked at the colorful liquid in the bottle. "Could they have added something weird to it again?"
"This time, I'm really serious," Chen Yu said. "I extracted the essence of Coke and Sprite and added a little bit of the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill. The effect is definitely good."
"Is this true?" Liu Ruyan opened the bottle doubtfully. "Why does it smell so sweet?"
"This is a secret recipe." Chen Yu smiled mysteriously, "I guarantee that after you drink it, your cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds."
The two women looked at each other and couldn't help but take a bite.
"This..." Lin Qingxue's eyes lit up, "Good stuff!"
"Really?" Chen Yu said proudly, "I developed this specifically for you. Outsiders can't even drink it if they want."
"That night..." Liu Ruyan blinked, "Are you still researching new formulas?"
"Of course." Chen Yu rubbed his hands, "I still have many new formulas to test."
