Chapter 1345 Blockbuster

Yang Rui gave Ye Yuan a deep look and found Ye Yuan smiling at him.

His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly understood why Ye Yuan had done this.

"This kid is so meticulous. Giving away the pill formula is a brilliant move!" Yang Rui praised inwardly.

If Yang Rui could see the significance of the pill formula, how could others not?

Once the Nourishing Essence Pill spread, it would sweep through the entire Tongtian Realm like a plague.

In that case, the Nourishing Essence Pill would not be a good thing for Ye Yuan but a hot potato.

It might even bring him deadly trouble.

But if the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion owned the pill formula, it would be completely different.

The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was the property of the Ten Thousand Treasures Heavenly Emperor, and few dared to covet it.

Even true experts would not trouble the Ten Thousand Treasures Heavenly Emperor over a mere first-grade mid-grade pill formula.

The first point was Ye Yuan's act of self-preservation.

The second point, as Ye Yuan himself said, was to repay a debt of gratitude.

But this gift was too heavy.

Once the Nourishing Essence Pill was released, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would surely sweep through Guishan City like a storm.

And Yang Rui, by contributing the pill formula to the pavilion, would certainly receive a generous reward from the higher-ups.

This favor was indeed immense!

Of course, Yang Rui understood that if Ye Yuan wanted to protect himself, he could have simply not revealed the pill formula.

As long as he didn't, everything would have nothing to do with Ye Yuan.

Thus, it showed that Ye Yuan was a man of great loyalty.

It was to save the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion that he brought out such a bombshell.

Yang Rui took a deep breath and said, "Brother Ye, I understand! From now on, let's address each other as brothers. I accept this favor!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Then I'll presume to call you Brother Yang. Brother Yang, the Nourishing Essence Pill is somewhat difficult to refine. If Old Song has any questions, he can come to me."

Yang Rui nodded and said, "Alright, no problem."

Old Song was the new first-grade pill god sent from above.

But since his arrival, he had done nothing to improve the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's predicament.

...

"Damn, I'm late again! You animals, you're too early!"

"The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is releasing another batch of Nourishing Essence Pills today. If you don't come early, you won't even get a sip of soup."

"Damn it, I'll give you fifty divine origin stones. How about you give me your spot?"

"Forget it! Fifty divine origin stones and you want my spot? Five hundred, not a stone less! And after you buy the Nourishing Essence Pill, you have to give me one; I'll buy it at the original price!"

"Go to hell!"

...

Once the Nourishing Essence Pill was launched, it swept through Guishan City like a tornado.

The doors of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were nearly broken down.

Ye Yuan had used the half month to refine a large batch of Nourishing Essence Pills.

He left the rest to others.

In business, Yang Rui and Su Linpu were far more experienced than he was.

The two devised a series of promotional strategies and recruited three groups of martial artists for free trials.

For the first group, many were skeptical, and few actually came to try.

But it was after this first group tried the pill that the Nourishing Essence Pill's reputation exploded!

The Nourishing Essence Pill was a brand-new pill, and its effect was most pronounced on the first use.

Although everyone doubted its efficacy, many people were paying attention.

After all, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion had made bold claims.

However, after the trial takers consumed the Nourishing Essence Pill, the effect was immediate, and their aura surged significantly on the spot.

This effect was something the Essence Augmentation Pill could never achieve.

The trial takers felt as if they had found a treasure, each one extremely excited.

This whetted everyone's appetite.

Thus, for the second and third trial slots, people fought tooth and nail.

Some who got trial slots auctioned them off at high prices.

It was said that the highest price reached ten thousand low-grade divine origin stones!

After the three trial rounds, sales at the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion exploded.

Unprecedentedly hot!

At the same price, with double the efficacy of the Essence Augmentation Pill, who would still buy the Essence Augmentation Pill?

Thus, overnight, the shops of the Wang, Lu, and Lin families became desolate.

In the Wang family, everyone was like ants on a hot pan, running around in panic.

"Elder Xuan, didn't you say the Nourishing Essence Pill absolutely couldn't exist? Now we have no countermeasures, and we're in a passive position!" Wang Su complained.

Wang Xuanfeng's face was very grim, mostly from embarrassment.

He had previously asserted with certainty that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion could never refine any Nourishing Essence Pill.

Now his face was being slapped hard!

In fact, Wang Su knew that even if the Wang family had prepared in advance, they would still be helpless against the powerful offensive of the Nourishing Essence Pill.

"You can't blame me! Do you know what the appearance of this Nourishing Essence Pill means?" Wang Xuanfeng said.

"It means our Guishan City branch can't hold on!" Wang Su said irritably.

Over the past few decades, the Wang family had consumed enormous resources to compete with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

They had originally planned to outlast the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and dominate Guishan City.

But unexpectedly, instead of outlasting the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, they had been dealt a heavy blow.

This blow was too severe; it might directly crush them.

Wang Xuanfeng sneered, "Foolish! Wang Su, your vision is too shallow. How can you ever take on great responsibilities? In my opinion, the appearance of this Nourishing Essence Pill will affect the entire Tongtian Realm! The Ten Thousand Treasures Heavenly Emperor will use this pill to amass immense wealth!"

Wang Su sneered, "Heh, Elder Xuan, do you think I haven't considered that? But do you think that kid named Ye Yuan will hand over the pill formula? This pill formula is invaluable! Faced with such huge profits, who would easily give it up?"

Wang Xuanfeng was stunned; he hadn't thought of that.

Wang Su glanced at Wang Xuanfeng and added, "So, that kid is digging his own grave! Don't be fooled by their current excitement. Sooner or later, that kid and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion will fall out! Then, heh heh!"

Wang Su's analysis rekindled hope in Wang Xuanfeng and the others.

Wang Yuxiang said, "So, Young Master Su means... we hold on until they fall out?"

Wang Su nodded, "Exactly."

Wang Yuxiang said with a grim face, "But our Guishan City branch can't compare to the deep pockets of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. Over the years, we've exhausted all our resources. If we keep this up, I'm afraid the Wang family will collapse before the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion does!"

Wang Su had been in Guishan City for decades and knew the Wang family's financial situation well.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll ask the main family for reinforcements in the next couple of days to support the Guishan City branch! The battle has reached this point; it's all about who can last longer."
