Chapter 1650: Astronomical Figures

The entire city was in an uproar!

In the Tianluo Market, a small pill shop had appeared that sold only Void Spirit Pills.

This news spread like wildfire throughout the entire royal city.

A long queue had formed in front of Ye Yuan's pill shop, stretching far beyond sight.

Among those waiting in line, most were at the Divine Lord realm.

Though the pills were excellent, few wandering cultivators at the Guixu realm could afford the price of hundreds of millions of divine origin stones.

Even the cheapest pills were hard for them to afford.

"Such a long line! When will it ever be our turn?" someone at the back of the queue complained.

"What can you do? That master said anyone who cuts the line won't be sold any pills! The Tianluo Market was jointly established by the three major powers—do you dare to cause trouble?" another person said.

"But with such a long line, even if that master has a huge stock of Void Spirit Pills, they'll sell out!"

"I heard that if you have a Longevity Heavenly Soul Stone, you can get priority to exchange for pills. Unfortunately, I don't have one, sigh!"

…

Now that the pill shop was so popular, Ye Yuan released news that anyone with a Longevity Heavenly Soul Stone could buy Void Spirit Pills first.

In just half a day, he had received three Longevity Heavenly Soul Stones.

Of course, he had also exchanged a few more expensive pills.

In that half day, Ye Yuan had sold over a hundred pills, and his purse was bulging again.

In just half a day, he had earned over ten billion.

After deducting the cost of these pills, Ye Yuan had netted seven or eight billion.

Most of the pills Ye Yuan sold now were of lower difficulty.

Not everyone could come up with one or two billion divine origin stones to buy those extremely difficult pills.

"Alright, that's it for today. Closing up! If you need pills, come early tomorrow."

As dusk approached, Ye Yuan directly issued a dismissal order.

Everyone erupted.

"No way! I finally made it to the front, and you're closing up?"

"Are you kidding me? Is this how you do business?"

"Hey, kid, I've been waiting in line for ages, and now you tell me you're closing? If you dare leave, I'll kill you!"

Ye Yuan coldly glanced at that First Level Divine Lord and said calmly, "Very well, I'll remember you. Don't even think about buying a single pill from me, not even with money!"

"Fine, you've got guts! Just don't leave the Tianluo Market, or I'll break your legs!" that First Level Divine Lord, clearly hot-tempered, roared angrily.

Suddenly, a powerful aura locked onto him, and a cold voice said, "Oh? Are you going to lay a hand on my brother Ye?"

A chill ran down the First Level Divine Lord's spine, and his face turned extremely ugly.

The aura was clearly from a Third Level Divine Lord—who else could it be but Ning Tianping?

"I... ha... haha, just joking, I was joking just now. How would I dare offend the master?"

Instant surrender!

That First Level Divine Lord had thought Ye Yuan was alone, but who knew Ye Yuan had a Third Level Divine Lord backing him?

"Good to know. Otherwise... you wouldn't see tomorrow's sun! Hmph!" Ning Tianping snorted coldly.

The man broke out in a cold sweat, repeatedly saying he dared not, and fled in panic.

Ning Tianping came to Ye Yuan's side and handed him a storage ring, saying, "Brother Ye, I've bought all the herbs you need!"

Ye Yuan had given Ning Tianping a very long list, and Ning Tianping had run around the entire city all day to buy all those spiritual herbs.

Before he even returned, he had heard that a pill master had caused a sensation throughout the city.

When he came back and saw the scene, it was spectacular!

Previously, the adult had never worried about money, but this time, pushed to the brink, his energy was immense!

Ye Yuan took the herbs, nodded, and said, "Good work. Let's find a place to rest first, and come back to set up the stall tomorrow."

Ye Yuan left with Ning Tianping, leaving the crowd staring at each other.

They just left?

Oh my god!

For martial artists, going without rest for a day or night, or even a year, was nothing.

So the Tianluo Market actually operated twenty-four hours a day.

Although there were fewer people at night, the flow was still heavy.

They had already paid the stall fee—why would they go rest?

Wasn't that a waste of divine origin stones?

Uh... no, the rental fee for a low-grade stall was only a hundred thousand divine origin stones a day, not even a fraction of the master's pill price.

"Sigh, let's all disperse! Come early tomorrow to line up!"

"Really, he doesn't even want to make money!"

"Heh heh, what do you know? Void Spirit Pills are never short of buyers. Even if he only sells for one hour a day, you still have to wait respectfully!"

…

The crowd dispersed, and with Ye Yuan's departure, the Tianluo Market returned to its original state.

"Hey, adult, how was today's harvest?" On the way, Ning Tianping asked eagerly.

Ye Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Roughly calculated, about seventeen or eighteen billion."

Ning Tianping's mouth fell wide open, his face full of disbelief. "Th-this fast? Adult, you're insane! In one day of setting up a stall here, you've matched the Ning family's annual income!"

Although Ning Tianping had mentally prepared himself, he was still shocked by the number Ye Yuan mentioned.

You see, a major family like the Ning family in the imperial city had a net annual profit of just over twenty billion.

But Ye Yuan, in less than a day of setting up a stall, had earned the family's annual income. This was insane.

He knew Ye Yuan had rented the stall for ten days; after ten days, wouldn't that be two hundred billion divine origin stones?

Two hundred billion...

That was simply an astronomical figure!

The more Ning Tianping thought about it, the more shocked he became. He had never known that making money could be so easy.

The adult was simply a money-making machine!

Ye Yuan seemed to know what he was thinking and laughed, "What are you thinking? These pills are my accumulation over hundreds of years. Selling them all at once creates this effect. If I were to refine them myself, even if I worked day and night, I couldn't make money this fast!"

Ning Tianping smacked his lips and said, "Still, that's impressive! Only you, adult, could pull this off. Anyone else would be left with nothing but despair in this situation!"

As the two walked out of the Tianluo Market, three groups of people approached from three different directions.

The leaders were actually at the Sixth Level Divine Lord realm!

No need to ask; these three groups were definitely sent by the three major powers.

"Brother Ye Yuan, our alliance leader invites you to his residence for a chat. Please do us the honor!" The Sixth Level Divine Lord on the right cupped his hands toward Ye Yuan.

Behind him stood Zhao Jian, but Su Ting was nowhere to be seen, presumably in seclusion.

"Du Mingliang, do you dare to poach from the City Lord's Mansion?" The Sixth Level Divine Lord in the middle glared at Du Mingliang.

"Brother Ye Yuan, our Blood Rainbow Mansion sincerely invites you to visit!" At that moment, the Sixth Level Divine Lord on the left also spoke.
