Chapter 2919: He Couldn't Help Himself
However, Suzumaki shook his head in response. "It is complicated. Even though I have the backing of a High Elder, it is not like I can go and make requests to him anytime I want. I will need more time to prepare the field. But..."
"But what?"
"Does it need to be the Enchanted Moon Gel from the Clan?" Suzumaki smiled.
"Of course not!" Rean quickly corrected himself. "As long as it is Enchanted Moon Gel, I don't mind from where it might come."
Suzumaki nodded. "Then I will extend my search to beyond the Clan as well. Truth be told, this thing about having to be a High Elder and the necessity to report its use makes acquiring the Gel in the Clan too unrealistic. I'm not sure if I can get it out either, but it gives me a lot more options."
"Then I'll be counting on you to find it for me." Rean reevaluated Suzumaki. He thought Suzumaki's influence wouldn't go much further than the Clan's walls, but it seems like he knows a lot more channels.
Finally, Rean changed to his next topic. "Now, I can't guarantee it yet, but there might be some Core Breakthrough Pills later on. They will be the same as the Foundation Ones, 100% breakthrough guarantee with very few side effects. Would you be interested?"
Suzumaki almost fell from his chair. Such a pill could only be made by a Golden Level Alchemist. "Is... Is that true?"
"I'm not sure yet. But there is a chance..." Rean commented without giving much hope. Suzumai took a deep breath and then shook his head. "No, forget it. I don't want them." "No?" Rean was taken aback.
Suzumaki's expression looked as if he was making the worst decision of his life, but he still gritted his teeth and confirmed. "No, forget about Core Breakthrough Pills. The Foundation Breakthrough Pills you are making for me are already quite impressive, but they are, after all, just pills made for Energy Gathering Realm cultivators. That's why I can act in the shadows without getting too much attention."
"However..." Suzumaki sighed. "If Core Breakthrough Pills start to appear in the market, and pills that have the same efficacy as the Foundation ones, then there is no way I can keep it a secret. Even the High Elder backing me up will be forced to come out to inquire about it. Above all, such pills are extremely expensive, and only two alchemists in the Clan can concoct them. Doing such a thing would be the same as messing up with those two figures' market, and their backing is much more fearsome than mine."
Rean wasn't sad to hear that. If anything, he was happy that Suzumaki was taking this seriously. "I misspoke, I misspoke... Forget what I said. We will continue with the Foundation Breakthrough Pills."
"Rean..." Suzumaki rubbed his hands. "I might not be able to put it in the market... but I definitely can make use of one of them. I also have a friend or two... or maybe three, who will keep their mouths shut even if they acquire it. It is not a big market, and I would need only three or four pills. Would that be okay to ask?"
Rean faintly smiled. "But of course. And as proof of our friendship, I will not charge you for the pill you consume. It's just that I'm not sure if I can get them yet."
Suzumaki's eyes lit up. He had been in the Foundation Establishment for a while already, but he was stuck there due to some mistakes he had made during his cultivation. It wasn't impossible for him to progress, but it became very hard and consumed a lot more resources. Hearing about Rean's guaranteed breakthrough pill, he obviously got interested. "Great! I can guarantee you 100 Rank Four Spiritual Stones per each Core Breakthrough Pill. And since you are giving me one for free, I will not take a cut from them."
"I'm happy to negotiate with someone so understandable as you." Rean nodded. "Anyway, I'm taking my leave. I'll contact you in a week to give you the new Foundation Breakthrough Pills."
Suzumaki was surprised to hear it would only take a week. "I'll be eagerly waiting."
Rean returned to his room and passed Roan one hundred of the Rank Three Spiritual Stones he got from Suzumaki. Following that, Rean and Roan went straight to the Gondel Clan's market and bought even more materials for the pills before returning to their rooms.
With Rank Three Spiritual Stones, their cultivation speed immediately soared. Rean and Roan spent the next week cultivating, concocting pills, and fighting in the arena while making bets. Their journey was pretty smooth, and they felt their power returning little by little. After those seven days were gone, Rean and Roan had already recovered to the Middle Stage of the Core Formation Realm. The work of decades, centuries, or even a lifetime for some cultivators was done in a matter of few months by the twins.
Rean once again passed ten Foundation Breakthrough Pills to Suzumaki, who didn't even wait to sell them before paying Rean his part. In Rean's eyes, Suzumaki was probably selling them for even more than just 100 Rank Three Spiritual Stones, but he didn't care. Considering Suzumaki was taking 30% of the value he mentioned, Rean was to receive 700 Rank Three Spiritual Stones. But since Rean asked to receive half of the payments in Rank Four Spiritual Stones, he got 350 Rank Three and 35 Rank Four.
With so much profit on the table, Rean also gave it a try as Blacksmith once again. "Here you have two swords and a saber. They are all Silver Peak Grade. Do you think you can sell them?"
Suzumaki was starting to feel scared of Rean. He never asked questions, but this time, he couldn't help himself. "Just how the hell are you getting all these things?"
