Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword

Chapter 715: Chapter 692: Deciding on a Plan (3/3)

All the members of the Lian Family who had previously coveted Ying Mengfan and her two companions had been slaughtered, so this branch of the Lian Family had no idea they were now being targeted by an ominous star. They were cheerfully proposing various conditions to Zhou Heng, hoping to recruit the young pharmacist.

——”To be a Five Stars Pharmacist at such a young age, his prospects are limitless!”

Zhou Heng naturally saw the Lian Family in a “different light,” politely declining other families’ recruitment offers, but left a hint of interest with the Lian Family, creating in them an illusion full of hopeful expectations.

Whether he joined them or not, flattering a Five Stars Pharmacist was a must, and Zhou Heng’s room was piled with gifts from various major families. If not for his possession of a Space Artifact, there would have been no room to store them all.

And as Zhou Heng’s status rose abruptly, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion paid him more attention. They soon sent word that the Immortal Residence Zhou Heng had been looking for was now in stock.

This was something Zhou Heng had been searching for a long time as a replacement for the Nine Mystic Trial Tower. Hearing the news, he was overjoyed, but the price also made him grimace painfully.

It was as high as eight hundred thousand Upper Grade Immortal Stones!

“Young Master Zhou, the space inside this Immortal Residence is vast. In fact, according to its true value, we start the bidding at eight hundred thousand Upper Grade Immortal Stones during our auctions!” said the elder from Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

This was a gaunt old man, a high-tier Sunshine Emperor named Liu Qibian. Although his cultivation realm was much higher than Zhou Heng’s, Zhou Heng’s even more dazzling identity as a Five Stars Pharmacist meant Liu Qibian had to address him respectfully as Young Master Zhou.

Pharmacists were among the few whose status wasn’t determined by their cultivation realm.

Zhou Heng couldn’t help but smile wryly, saying, “Eight hundred thousand Upper Grade Immortal Stones, even if you killed me, I couldn’t produce such an amount!”

He had struck it rich before, but eight hundred thousand Upper Grade Immortal Stones was still a terrifying fortune in North Wu City. Although it wouldn’t necessarily bankrupt most of the wealthy clans, it would definitely make them hurt for thousands or even tens of thousands of years!
