Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold Chapter 282 - 265: Alchemical Boon from Beyond (Part 4)

After all, these people already harbored prejudice against him.

The alchemist, upon hearing this, snorted disdainfully:

"You dare claim to have a little knowledge of alchemy? I fear you’re just boasting with so superficial understanding!"

The elders’ expressions were disdainful; they probably held the sa thought.

But Lin Lang suddenly shifted his tone, raising an eyebrow slightly as he looked at everyone and asked:

"What if I can refine a Realm-Breaking Pill?"

The alchemist, as if hearing the joke of the century, couldn’t help but mock:

"Impossible! Do you really think you’re a god? Even I can’t refine the Realm-Breaking Pill; you think you can?"

The elders chid in agreent, their faces full of doubt and contempt. To them, Lin Lang was simply boasting, lacking the ability to back it up.

However, the Palace Master at this mont seed to grasp his last straw of hope, a glimr of hope igniting in his eyes. He looked at Lin Lang, speaking earnestly and urgently:

"If Young Master Lin can refine the Realm-Breaking Pill and help break through the Martial Arts Peak Realm, I am willing to betroth the Saintess to you!"

In the Palace Master’s heart, as long as he could break through the realm and solidify the Martial God Palace’s position, paying such a price seed worth it.

Lin Lang remained calm as ever, a subtle smirk appearing on his lips as he said leisurely:

"Wasn’t the Saintess your apology gift to ? Don’t get it twisted."

The mont he said this, everyone was shocked. They had never expected Lin Lang to bring this up at such a ti, and the elders were even more infuriated, imdiately scolding:

"You are really insatiable! You’ve already got the Saintess, yet you’re still not satisfied, wanting to gain more advantage? You’re too much!"

The more they spoke, the angrier they got, feeling Lin Lang was truly too overreaching.

But Lin Lang ignored the elders’ scolding and simply looked at the Saintess to see what her attitude was.

The Saintess, however, was swiftly calculating in her heart—

If Lin Lang could indeed refine the Realm-Breaking Pill, it would be a trendous turning point for the entire Martial God Palace!

With the enhancent of power brought by the Palace Master’s breakthrough, the Martial God Palace could rise in the end tis!

Such a contribution is absolutely incomparable, so what is a little cost to pay?

Therefore, the Saintess spoke firmly:

"If Young Master Lin can truly refine the Realm-Breaking Pill and help my father break through the Martial Arts Peak Realm, then from this day forward, the entire Martial God Palace will obey your command!"

This statent made everyone gasp with astonishnt!

They never expected the Saintess to make such a decision, feeling it was too advantageous for Lin Lang, as if inviting Lin Lang to beco the owner of the Martial God Palace!

...

But Lin Lang, upon hearing this, felt sowhat speechless—

This so-called obedience was rely a nominal title, after all.

They weren’t handing the Martial God Palace directly to him; in practice, these people would still follow the Palace Master’s orders, having no real significance!

Thus,

Lin Lang directly said, "Not enough."

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed drastically, their eyes widening in disbelief.

The elders were incredibly indignant, accusing, "This boy is definitely toying with us! We’ve already made such concessions, yet he’s still not satisfied, truly thinking our Martial God Palace is easy to bully!"

Lin Lang remained indifferent, unhurriedly saying, "Let’s be clear about the conditions first, so handling things later becos easier."

The Palace Master bit his teeth, seemingly making an enormous decision, and resolutely said, "If you succeed, then I’m willing to give you my position as Palace Master!"

This statent was earth-shattering!

Everyone was utterly astounded!

...

However, after so internal calculations, Lin Lang felt that these terms sounded empty!

Ultimately, the people in the Martial God Palace, deep down, surely still only listened to the Palace Master and the Saintess!

No matter how good a title they gave him, when it ca to actual decision-making, he might not have any authority.

They were just empty promises that looked good on the surface but were useless.

Thus, Lin Lang waved his hand, speaking casually:

"Let’s not talk about these useless things!"

"How about this! I’ll give you the Realm-Breaking Pill, but from now on your Martial God Palace owes a treasure, whether it’s sothing you have now or acquire in the future, as long as I take a liking to it, you must give it to !"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into contemplation.

They understood this was essentially a gamble—

If the Martial God Palace later stumbled upon sothing even more powerful than the Realm-Breaking Pill, would they have to give it to Lin Lang as per the agreent?

That would truly be a huge loss!

But!

Looking at the current situation, the Martial God Palace indeed had nothing more valuable or important than the Realm-Breaking Pill!

From this perspective, agreeing to Lin Lang’s conditions now seed like a gain for the Martial God Palace.

After all, as long as they could obtain the Realm-Breaking Pill to help the Palace Master break through, the Martial God Palace’s overall strength could elevate to a higher level!

...

The Palace Master hesitated for a mont, speaking quietly, "Does that an my daughter doesn’t need to be wed?"

He was still pondering over this matter, hoping to reduce the cost if possible!

The Saintess couldn’t help but look up at the Palace Master, her eyes revealing a hint of speechlessness.

Lin Lang, however, just smiled and said, "That’s a different price."

This left the Palace Master montarily speechless, standing there not knowing how to respond.

But after weighing the pros and cons, the Palace Master still gritted his teeth and agreed to Lin Lang’s terms!
