Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy,1424 Business - Read free novels online

Alex did nothing productive for the next 2 days aside from cultivating in his room all day long. He didn’t even make a single pill as he already had all that he needed.

He cultivated with his beasts for the next 2 days, and then on the third day, he waited.

There were two possibilities in what was going to happen next, and Alex was ready for either of them. He stayed there in the room, alone for a while.

And then, the Lizard finally came back.

Alex waited for him to knock on the door before walking out.

“Oh, senior! You’re back?” he asked with a surprised look.

“Y-yes, I am back. I’m sorry I left you alone for two days,” the man said.

“It’s alright,” Alex said. “Now that you are out, I can finally ask you.”

“Ask me? Ask me what?” the Lizard spoke curiously. He had wanted to speak up first, but since Alex wanted to speak, he let him.

“I wanted to ask if you could have someone take me to the closest colony,” Alex said. “I plan on leaving this place.”

“What?” the Lizard’s eyes widened. “Why? Why would you want to leave this early?”

“Huh?” Alex stared at the lizard. “I thought you didn’t want me here. Isn’t that why you refused to allow me to carry out my business here? If can understand if you hate it. I will leave.”

“What? No, who said that?” the Lizard said.

“You did,” Alex said. “Since you don’t seem to like me or want me to stay here, I will leave this place. I’m sorry I was a problem to you.”

“No, no, no, no, no,” the Lizard said. “I- I don’t hate you. Who said that? No. I was just saying we didn’t need your pills because we had enough. Bu—”

“Yeah, I understand that,” Alex said. “Since you have enough pills, I will go and ask the others who will hopefully buy it from me.”

“Wait,” the Lizard stopped him from leaving. “Let me finish what I was about to say. I apologize, I was mistaken.”

Alex turned back around, holding himself from grinning, and looked at the beast. “What did you say senior?”

“I said I apologize. Your pills are amazing, and I would love to buy them if I can. Please, don’t leave,” the lizard said.

“Hmm, are you sure senior?” Alex asked. “You don’t have to force yourself to lie.”

“Please stop acting innocent,” the Lizard said. “I get it. Your pill is good. I will buy it. Just stop this.”

“Okay,” Alex said. “Then can I run my business here?”

“Yes,” the Lizard said. “Do what you want. It’s your choice now.”

Alex finally showed his grin. “Thank you for coming to an understanding, senior. Would you like to be my first customer then?” he asked.

“Hmm? What do I need to do?” the lizard asked.

“It’s simple really,” Alex said. “You will have to bring me ingredients to make the pills. I will give you a list of ingredients for different pills, and you can judge what you can get based on that.”

“Once you get the ingredients, I will make the pill for you. The price for making the pill will be something precious.”

“It can be Saint ingredients, or spirit stones, or anything, but I will take 2 main things as the most precious of all.”

“The blood of a living beast that is in the Saint realm, or the Beast core of a dead one. I will let everyone decide which ones they want to use. The decision is up to you as well.”

Alex pulled out the list of ingredients and handed it to the Lizard. “I have everything prepared. I have a few ingredients to make around 5 more pills, so I will get started on that. Once you bring back the ingredients, I will make even more.”

The lizard grumbled, having fallen right into his trap. “You wanted this to happen from the very start,” he said. “Fine, I’ll get your damn ingredients. As for the payment, I can’t guarantee what you’ll get.”

“I will wait for any that I can get,” Alex said and smiled toward the Lizard, who in turn hated Alex even more. “Also, can you let everyone know that there is going to be a constant lightning strike here and they have nothing to worry about at all?”

“Huh? More lightning strikes?” the Lizard seemed worried. “But why?”

“That’s how the veins are formed. If you want veins, there has to be lightning,” he said.

“Alright, do what you want. I’ll let them know,” the Lizard said and walked away.

Alex returned to his room and started making the few pills that he had promised. He had so many ingredients that he hadn’t used because he was constantly on a tour of the Emerald Kingdom.

What time he did have during those times had been spent on learning the Wood ingredients as they were his main priority. That was to say, he didn’t lack ingredients at all.

Still, he was going to make someone else pay to bring the ingredients to him now.

He wouldn’t have minded using his own, but with the stunt, the Lizard pulled off, he no longer wanted to.

He finished making the 5 pills he had mentioned. About 15 minutes after he was done, a young Saint Beast came up to his house and handed over a few ingredients that they had in their storage already.

Along with that, they also brought a few of the things that Alex asked for.

Alex saw a small wooden bucket full of blood as well as 2 beast cores. Judging from the aura of the cores, neither one of the beasts had been in the Saint Core realm before it had died.

“That’s good enough for starters,” he thought and started preparing the ingredients for the pills he was going to start making soon enough.
