The appearance of Coagulation Powder and Thunder Fire Beads swept through Wu Tan City like a violent storm, rapidly capturing over 70% of the healing dicine market. This resurgence not only restored the popularity of the Xiao Clan's marketplace within two short days but even exceeded its forr glory.
As the Xiao Clan reaped enormous profits, Mo Yu's na once again spread throughout Wu Tan City.
The Xiao Clan kept a tight lid on the source of the Coagulation Powder, revealing nothing to the outside world. However, they openly admitted that the Thunder Fire Beads were crafted by Mo Yu. After all, Yao Lao's identity had to remain secret, but Mo Yu was a legitimate mber of the Xiao Clan, and promoting his fa not only benefited him but also significantly boosted the Xiao Clan's prestige.
Upon learning that Mo Yu was the mastermind behind the Thunder Fire Beads, not only did the Xiao Clan's morale soar, but several neutral factions also quickly aligned themselves with the Xiao Clan.
By the second day after the Coagulation Powder was released, the Jia Lie Clan began lowering the price of their Rejuvenation Powder back to its original value. However, due to their previous profiteering, which had already angered many rcenaries, coupled with the Xiao Clan's superior products, the Thunder Fire Beads and Coagulation Powder, the Jia Lie Clan's marketplace failed to regain its previous bustling atmosphere.
The demand for healing dicine and Thunder Fire Beads was overwhelming. Each day, by morning, the Coagulation Powder and Thunder Fire Beads in the Xiao Clan's marketplace would be snatched up by rcenaries. By the afternoon, all healing products would be sold out.
Those who failed to purchase the Coagulation Powder had no choice but to visit the Jia Lie Clan's marketplace to buy the inferior Rejuvenation Powder.
The rcenaries' massive demand for healing dicines helped the Jia Lie Clan barely hold on in the face of the Xiao Clan's aggressive counterattack. Moving forward, the competition between the two clans would depend on which had the larger stockpile of resources.
...
Wu Tan City, Jia Lie Clan Headquarters.
In the brightly lit hall, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive. On the central table sat a small green jade bottle and a dark-colored bead.
Nurous Jia Lie Clan high-ranking officials filled the room, their expressions grim as they eyed the items on the table.
On the left side of the hall, a young man in white, casually toying with a servant girl, was none other than the Jia Lie Clan's hired first-rank alchemist, Liu Xi.
"These are the Coagulation Powder and Thunder Fire Bead that the Xiao Clan suddenly introduced. Our marketplace's popularity has begun to plumt," said Jia Lie Bi, his face dark as he stared at the two items.
"How could the Xiao Clan have healing dicine? Could it be that mysterious alchemist from the auction house? According to internal sources from the Mite-er Auction House, that alchemist is at least a third-rank," a Jia Lie Clan senior remarked, incredulity in his voice.
At his words, the faces of those in the room darkened. The mysterious alchemist, portrayed by Yao Lao, was a looming threat in their minds.
Liu Xi, having finished playing with the servant girl, picked up the small green bottle for a closer look and sneered. "There's nothing remarkable about the Xiao Clan's healing dicine. The Coagulation Powder is indeed more potent than the Rejuvenation Powder, but judging by its quality, the alchemist who made it is clearly of a lower rank than . The potency is probably due to so special prescription rather than skill."
Hearing this, everyone in the room let out a sigh of relief. If the Xiao Clan truly had a third-rank alchemist on their side, the Jia Lie Clan would have no chance of recovery.
"From my perspective, the Xiao Clan's alchemist is probably a rookie who just stumbled upon a good recipe, which is how they managed to create the Coagulation Powder."
"As for the Thunder Fire Beads, that's nothing more than a gimmick. On the Dou Qi continent, I've never heard of any outstanding weapon refiners. This Mo Yu must have picked up a few tricks from so old fool. This item is only popular in a small place like Wu Tan City and is not worth ntioning in the grand sche of things," Liu Xi scoffed while playing with the bead in his hand.
Having been trained in the formal arts of alchemy, Liu Xi looked down upon weapon refinent, considering it an inferior craft. If only he had seen true refinent skills, he might not have been so narrow-minded.
Suddenly, Liu Xi's eyes glead with cunning as he turned to the Jia Lie Clan elders. "By the way, even though the Xiao Clan has begun their counterattack, my share must remain unchanged."
The Jia Lie Clan elders frowned deeply at this. With their healing dicine sales returning to their original price, only a third of what it had been, Liu Xi's cut was still the sa. The loss in profits would co entirely from the Jia Lie Clan's earnings.
In this situation, the Jia Lie Clan would not only fail to make money but might even suffer losses.
Seeing the displeasure of the Jia Lie Clan elders, Jia Lie Bi, the clan leader, was also furious. However, he suppressed his anger and forced a smile. "Of course, Mr. Liu Xi. Your share will be fully paid as promised."
"Good." Liu Xi nodded with satisfaction, though he had noticed the resentnt in the room. While he didn't care about these insignificant people's feelings, a crafty glint appeared in his eyes as he continued, "As for Coagulation Powder, that battle will depend on your financial and material resources. Hard power is the only way forward. However, as for the Thunder Fire Beads, you could easily solve the problem by eliminating Mo Yu. Without him, the Xiao Clan would lose their supply, and you could regain so of the market."
Liu Xi's disdain for Mo Yu, who had gained fa through what he saw as an inferior thod, was clear. His eyes flashed with malice as he made the sinister suggestion.
At his words, the Jia Lie Clan elders' eyes brightened as if they had discovered a new solution.
If they couldn't solve the problem, why not solve the person causing it?
