"It's true! I swear the Sun Pills work exactly that way!" Leon promised confidently. "Well," Roman and the others fell into silence. If they heard this the night before, they would never have believed Leon. However, the situation was different. They all fought Leon after mistaking him as the killer and sensed that Leon reached the Initial Almighty State. If that were the case, Leon's promise would sound far more convincing. Moreover, Roman was going to give the Rainbow Fruit to Leon and Leon was the one who offered to trade with the pills. If he was lying about the effect, there would not be a point for him to do such a thing. Instantly, the Feaks found themselves convinced. "Mister Wolf, since you insist on trading, I will take you up on your offer!" Roman bowed slightly with a grateful expression. Since the Feaks were a long lineage of doctors and after over a hundred years of effort, they accumulated tremendous wealth. Their only weakness was the fact that they wer
"Fletcher, what's wrong with you? We need to go back and report to the captain. You are wasting time!" Howard was annoyed. Inviting an outsider to the Dragon Corps branch was already inappropriate. On top of that, Fletcher now wanted to go to the Feaks' mansion with Leon and delay reporting the situation to their superior. Howard was displeased and he could not quite understand what Fletcher was thinking. "Howard, I'm sorry, but Mister Wolf is special. If you are in a rush, you can go back and report to Mister Orpwood. Just leave me behind." Fletcher smiled sheepishly. Leon worked alone to eliminate the Poisonwielder and ever since Mister Orpwood found out about it, he wanted to meet Leon in person, and now was his chance. Mister Orpwood would likely not blame Fletcher if he returned to the branch slightly later if he managed to bring Leon with him. Hence, Fletcher was not worried. Naturally, Leon did not want his identity to be known and Fletcher felt that it would be in
"Yeah! Hugo, what's the rush? Just wait for the third elder to come back!" Jayden sneered. Both he and Caleb continued to look down on Cynthion Group like they did the day before. "But," Unwilling to give up, Hugo opened his mouth to argue but was interrupted by Jayden. "There's no 'but'! Cynthion Group is offering us too little profit. It's only normal for us to consider it carefully instead of allowing them to manipulate us!" Jayden scoffed. "Yeah, he is right!" "A business deal requires multiple negotiations and compromises. It doesn't just happen overnight!: "Cynthion Group is only offering twenty percent of profit and they are trying to trick us! We need to do what's best for us and fight for more!" ... The other elders agreed along with Jayden's point of view. Seeing how the others supported him, Jayden felt smug. "Hugo, I know that you are close with Mister Wolf. Why don't you represent us and talk to him? Ask him to increase the profit to forty percent. This
"Why is it impossible? Cynthion Group is only responsible for producing the pills, whereas we provide herbs and make marketing arrangements. We will be putting in more work than them! All we are asking is forty percent of the total profit, so that's a good deal!" Jayden scoffed. "Uncle Jayden, I don't agree with you! The alchemical pills are the core value of Cynthion Group. There isn't another company that can produce pills that aid martial artists' training in both the southern and western regions. The same can't be said about us. If we don't agree to Cynthion Group's terms, they can choose to work with another family! Once others witness the effect of the pills, they will all fight for a chance to work with Cynthion Group," Hugo argued. There was a distance between the southern and western regions and it was normal that some of the families in the western region did not hear of Cynthion Group. However, the news would travel fast. Leon came to the western region to expand Cynth
"Well," Hugo froze and found himself rendered speechless because Jayden was right. In terms of effect, the premium Energy Nurturing Pills worked similarly with rare herbs. Though he knew that the Energy Nurturing Pills could also enhance chances for a breakthrough, it was not certain and he did not witness it before. Hence, he could not quite argue with Jayden. On top of that, Caleb and the elders supported Jayden and were dead set on fighting for more profit. No matter how hard Hugo tried, he could not get Caleb to agree to the deal. With Jayden's interference, things kept getting more complicated. Feeling devastated, he did not know what to do. Just as he fell into despair, something unexpected happened. A melodious voice rose and Renee hurried inside. "You don't know the half of it!" "Renee, why are you here?" Hugo was slightly shocked. Renee was too young and held no power in the family business. Hence, Renee was never invited to the family meeting, nor did she wa
"Renee, enough with your nonsense! The deal with Cynthion Group is a business matter. You are still too young to know anything about this, so don't get involved!" Caleb said sternly to Renee. He assumed that Renee was influenced by Hugo and did not take her seriously. The other elders shared the same view. Renee did not play an important role in the family business and she did not know doing business. If even Hugo failed to convince them to accept Leon's terms, Renee, who had no expertise in the matter, could not possibly succeed. No one was going to compromise and cave to Leon's terms over a few words she said. "Grandfather, I'm not messing around. I'm just telling the truth! You don't know this yet, but during Jaxon's bouquet last night, a lot of the guests tried to work with Cynthion, including influential families like the Dagleshs. If we keep dragging this on, I'm afraid that some other family may snatch the opportunity away," Renee said, before proceeding to explain wha
"Nonsense! The Premium Energy Nurturing Pills may help martial artists with their training, but they aren't that much better than rare herbs! Besides, they are only offering twenty percent of profit. The others aren't fools and wouldn't possibly work with Cynthion Group!" Jayden sneered and scoffed. His arrogance led him to believe that the Premium Energy Nurturing Pills were just as effective as rare herbs. Since Cynthion Group offered low profit, he did not think that others would fight for a chance to work with them. He assumed that Renee was merely exaggerating to convince Caleb and could not think of any other explanation. "That's right. It's quite strange." "Cynthion Group is offering too little, so why would other families accept such a deal?" ... Caleb and the others immediately regained their composure. They only refused to work with Cynthion Group because the profit Leon offered was too low. If the Morrisons were not happy with it, it was hard to believe that
"Renee, did you just say that Premium Energy Nurturing Pills can enhance the chances of a breakthrough? What a joke! That's just false marketing. Are you taking that seriously?" Jayden mocked and laughed. Hugo purchased some Premium Energy Nurturing Pills from the southern region and he already heard the pills' effect, but the chance for martial artists who took those to have a breakthrough was extremely low. From a business point of view, it was practically a gamble. Indeed, Hugo distributed the Premium Energy Nurturing Pills to some of the younger martial artists in the family, including Renee and Georgie. However, after using it for some time, no one succeeded in having a breakthrough with the help of the Premium Energy Nurturing Pills. Hence, Jayden assumed that the proclaimed effect of the Premium Energy Nurturing Pills was merely a means of marketing. It was a common tactic for business owners. "Yeah! Renee, you don't know much about running a business. This type of f
