Jiang Chen smiled inwardly. The so-called Tea Pill was actually a Luo Pill.
This type of Luo Pill wasn’t poisonous in the slightest, but its effects were utterly baffling.
So even if the Martial King Expert behind Wen Bufan were to inspect it, he wouldn’t find anything.
It was, of course, non-toxic.
Taking the Luo Pill, Jiang Chen brazenly steeped it in the teapot.
As he prepared the tea, he said with a smile, "Eldest Young Master Wen, this Tea Pill actually has so benefits for a Martial Cultivator."
"It can improve one’s constitution."
"Our Jiang Family obtained such a precious Tea Pill and have always been reluctant to use it. Today, I thought I’d bring it out to honor you, Eldest Young Master Wen."
Wen Bufan was delighted. ’So Jiang Chen is trying to suck up to .’
And make peace.
Silently cursing him for being spineless, Wen Bufan gave a smug smile.
"Jiang Chen, if only you’d had this realization sooner."
"Well, it’s not too late now. After I drink the tea made from this Tea Pill, we can talk about other things."
He had no intention of letting the Jiang Family off the hook, but he was determined to drink this tea.
He had quite enjoyed the taste of the Tea Pill from before.
Under Jiang Chen’s careful preparation, the Luo Pill quickly began to dissolve, producing a golden-yellow liquid.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen let it steep a mont longer before pouring the liquid into their two teacups.
"Eldest Young Master Wen, please."
Jiang Chen’s face was a placid mask, so Wen Bufan had no way of reading his thoughts.
Still, Wen Bufan remained cautious and didn’t drink the tea imdiately.
Jiang Chen, however, paid him no mind. He simply picked up his own teacup and downed the liquid from the Luo Pill in one gulp.
He had taken an antidote beforehand, so he was completely immune to the pill’s properties.
He drained the cup without hesitation.
Then he poured himself another.
"This Tea Pill... this is the first ti I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting it," he said admiringly.
The fragrance wafted over to Wen Bufan, and he could no longer hold back.
He finally raised his teacup, brought it to his nose to savor the aroma, and then took a small sip.
The next mont, a comfortable sensation washed over him. Wen Bufan threw caution to the wind and downed the rest in one gulp.
After drinking it, his entire body felt utterly relaxed.
"Excellent tea! Excellent tea!"
At that mont, Wen Bufan was overjoyed. He never expected the Jiang Family to possess such a delicious Tea Pill.
He planned to ask for so before he left.
Although he and the Jiang Family were already like fire and water, he figured they wouldn’t dare refuse his request.
He loved the taste of the Tea Pill.
"Jiang Chen, fill my cup."
Wen Bufan was ordering him around.
Jiang Chen didn’t hesitate and imdiately filled a cup for Wen Bufan.
The two of them drank cup after cup.
Jiang Chen spoke casually, "Eldest Young Master Wen, look... do you think you could unseal our Jiang Family’s shops?"
"With our Jiang Family’s shops sealed, we can’t do business. Our source of inco is about to be cut off."
"I know I was disrespectful to you before. I apologize."
"Please, find it in your heart to forgive ."
Jiang Chen was just making small talk.
In truth, he had no desire to beg anyone, nor was there any need to.
This was all just an act.
It was to make Wen Bufan lower his guard.
Besides, a part of his plan was already complete.
After all, as long as Wen Bufan drank the Luo Pill, it was a success.
As for the Cyan Silkworm Pill, that wasn’t for Wen Bufan.
The Luo Pill alone was enough to deal with Wen Bufan.
"That matter... let’s talk about it later."
"So day when I’m in a good mood, we can discuss it then."
Wen Bufan just laughed. There was no way he would unseal the Jiang Family’s shops.
He wanted the Jiang Family finished, and he had to work with the Second Prince to crush them.
This was all just the beginning.
So what if he drank the Jiang Family’s tea? He still wouldn’t give them any face.
It was only after seven or eight consecutive cups...
That Wen Bufan suddenly felt sothing was wrong.
"Hm?"
"What’s going on?"
He frowned and glanced at Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen, acting as if nothing were amiss, cheerfully continued to drink the tea. He seed perfectly fine.
"Eldest Young Master Wen, what’s wrong?"
After finishing his cup, Jiang Chen took notice of Wen Bufan’s odd state.
He asked with a wide grin.
’It’s kicking in.’ He knew the effects of the Luo Pill were taking hold.
He felt an urge to burst out laughing.
Suddenly, Wen Bufan looked at Jiang Chen and barked, "Jiang Chen, what did you do to the tea?"
At that mont, the City Lord’s Mansion guards, the Martial King Puppet, and Lin Hai all instantly went on alert, turning to glare at Jiang Chen with hostile expressions.
Jiang Chen suddenly slapped his head as if he had just realized sothing.
"Oh no, this is bad!" he cried out.
"What’s going on? Spit it out, or else!" Wen Bufan demanded.
He was furious. Jiang Chen must have tricked him again.
Jiang Chen slapped his thigh and cried, "I grabbed the wrong pill! I just rembered! I was supposed to give you a Tea Pill to taste, but what I brewed was our Jiang Family’s Luo Pill!"
"Damn it! I ssed up! I ssed up!"
He was doing it on purpose. That’s right, completely on purpose.
Jiang Chen even wanted to laugh.
Wen Bufan was livid. He pressed, "You bastard, what the hell is a Luo Pill?"
Jiang Chen shrugged.
He said innocently, "The Luo Pill... well, that’s an elixir our Jiang Family usually uses on livestock."
What?
My god, he was about to break down.
He was furious.
"You bastard! You actually fed that stuff!"
He had actually drunk the Luo Pill’s concoction. A mont ago he found it delicious, but now all he wanted was to vomit. Yet, he couldn’t even manage to bring anything up.
Breaking out in a cold sweat, Wen Bufan roared in a rage, "Jiang Chen, you’re courting death! You dare to plot against !"
