Chapter 97: Supreme Fire Spiritual Root

Steward Zhang looked at Qin Ming carefully and said:

"Your master really dotes on you."

"Because I have great talent!" Qin Ming smiled.

"You really are confident. A Young Man as confident as you is rare to see."

Steward Zhang also smiled.

You're trying to say I'm narcissistic, aren't you!

Qin Ming curled his lip and said:

"I have a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root."

He had originally intended to pick up the teacup that had fallen on the ground, but upon hearing Qin Ming's words…

He instantly ignored the teacup.

"Qin Ming, what did you just say?"

"I said I have a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root!" Qin Ming repeated.

Steward Zhang stood up upon hearing this.

"You really have a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root?"

Qin Ming nodded, looking at Steward Zhang with a gaze of disdain.

It was as if he was saying, "You haven't seen much of the world, making a fuss over nothing."

Steward Zhang said:

"No wonder your master is so good to you, giving you perfect qi gathering pills and a space ring, and even joining the Qin Family.

With a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root, it's no wonder."

Qin Ming naturally knew the value of a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root.

A Supreme Fire Spiritual Root was the Spiritual Root that Alchemists envied and desired to possess the most.

Its control over flames was incomparable to other grades and types of Spiritual Roots.

It could be said that as long as someone with a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root settled down to study Alchemy, they could at least become a Grand Alchemist.

If they awakened a good Innate Divine Ability and had many spirit plants to cultivate, even becoming a Pill King would be easy.

As for after Pill King, it would depend on Comprehension Ability and perseverance.

"Then what did you come here to trade for this time?"

Steward Zhang asked.

"I want Jue Ming Pavilion to help me wipe out the Chen Family, the City Lord, and the Wang Family."

Qin Ming said in a deep voice.

Steward Zhang shook his head and said:

"Not to mention you're bringing third-grade Medicinal Pills, even if you brought fifth-grade perfect elixirs, Jue Ming Pavilion would not intervene in conflicts.

This is the rule of our Jue Ming Pavilion."

Smiling, Qin Ming continued:

"Of course, I naturally understand your rules. I don't need your Jue Ming Pavilion to act personally; I only need you to pass on information.

Surely passing on information doesn't violate the rules?"

Steward Zhang looked at Qin Ming in surprise and said:

"I didn't expect you to understand Jue Ming Pavilion so well, knowing what we do and what we don't do."

"Of course!" Qin Ming said as a matter of course, "I don't fight battles I'm not sure of.

If I didn't know your rules, I wouldn't have come!"

"Good. Then what price are you prepared to pay?"

Steward Zhang responded.

"What I gave you just now was fifty perfect qi gathering pills; that's the deposit. After the Wang Family, the City Lord, and the Zhang Family are wiped out, there will be another fifty."

"These are all perfect qi gathering pills?" Steward Zhang immediately began to inspect the pills.

After inspection, he found it was indeed as Qin Ming said; all fifty were perfect qi gathering pills.

Not one more, not one less.

"Another fifty, can you really produce them?"

Steward Zhang asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, I can guarantee it with my head," Qin Ming said loudly.

"Your head isn't worth much!"

Steward Zhang said.

"Then what about a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root?"

Qin Ming smiled, "And also my status as an Alchemist!"

"Alchemist? You're already an Alchemist?"

Steward Zhang said in surprise.

He felt that he hadn't experienced as much surprise in a whole year as he had today.

This Qin Ming was truly mysterious; first perfect qi gathering pills, then a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root, and now he was actually telling him he had already advanced to become an Alchemist.

An Alchemist can be considered to have entered the gate of the Dao of Alchemy, and is completely incomparable to a Pill Apprentice.

Could it be that a Supreme Fire Spiritual Root's help to the Dao of Alchemy is really that great?
