Chapter 910: Meeting, Refining Pills for the Wen Family (2)
“Patriarch, even though I didn’t dare to get too close, I heard it very clearly. They just got to know each other. Then, Miss Leng said that our Wen family is very rich. If they cure us, get them to charge us more,” the subordinate said with certainty. Because of the angle and Leng Ruoxue’s back was facing him at that time, he didn’t see Leng Ruoxue being taken advantage of.
Charge them more? The corner of the Wen Family Patriarch’s mouth twitched and cold sweat flowed down his forehead. Did Leng Ruoxue have a grudge against the Wen Family? She actually encouraged them to collect more money. She was really too evil!
“What is a little more money if they can really cure our poison!” The Sixth Elder reminded the Patriarch seeing his expression a little strange. The most important thing now was the poison in their bodies. Money was just a worldly possession. If they died because of this unknown poison, who knew who would benefit from the Wen family’s money?
The words of the Sixth Elder made sense, therefore the Patriarch directly instructed the head butler who had just entered the main hall, “Head butler, go and inform Ersha that we agree to let him try.”
“Yes, Master.” The Head butler took his orders and turned away again.
Ye Chen and Zheng En’s residence.
At the moment, they were in the room, sitting across from each other.
“You got what you wanted, Ersha.” Ye Chen chuckled. The head butler had come to inform them that the Wen family was willing to let them try.
“Hehe! I’ll perform well.” Zheng En smiled evilly. As long as he thought about how the Head Butler’s expression was as if he had seen a ghost when he saw him take out the list of medicinal herbs he needed, he wanted to laugh. How dare they capture his Miss? If he didn’t make them bleed, it would be difficult to appease the hatred in his heart! Hmph! Who asked them to be unable to defeat the Wen family now? Therefore, he could only use other methods!
As the two of them chatted, the Wen family’s head butler arrived again.

“Excellency Ersha, I’ve brought all the herbs you need.” The Wen family’s butler handed over a storage ring with a pained expression.
Sigh! This was all money! Even though he suspected there was no need for so many medicinal herbs to refine a pill! However, he did not dare to ask. If he angered the alchemist, it would cost him his life. Moreover, no one in the Divine Continent was willing to accept the detoxification mission issued by the Wen family except for this Zheng Ersha.
“Hehe! Head Butler is really efficient. Actually, I don’t know if these herbs are enough. I do need some more precious herbs. I hope you can help me find them.” After saying that, Zheng En took out a piece of paper from his ring and handed it to the Head Butler.
“Some… some more!” The Head Butler reluctantly took the piece of paper from Zheng En. He wanted to cry. Boohoo… this person didn’t really think they were fools!
“Of course. Because I’ve never seen this poison before, I need to test many herbs. Head Butler, you’d better be mentally prepared. If these herbs aren’t enough, I’ll have to ask you for more! Oh! You’d better tell your family head to prepare a few more portions of the herbs I asked for in advance. Otherwise, won’t you be the ones who suffer?” Zheng En reminded very kindly, his expression very sincere.
“Okay, okay. I’ll let the head of the family know.” With that, the butler left dejectedly with the list of precious herbs.
“Hehe! The Wen family indeed has a lot of good stuff!” Zheng En glanced at the medicinal herbs in the ring, his ugly face almost blooming with joy.
“Don’t laugh, Ersha. It’s creepy,” Ye Chen said helplessly.
“Oh, oh!” Zheng En quickly nodded. His current appearance was quite scary when he smiled.
“How do you plan to embezzle these medicinal herbs from the Wen family?” Ye Chen asked curiously in a low voice. Zheng En had asked the Wen family for so many medicinal herbs. He did not believe that Zheng En would use them all. However, if they were all used up, there had to be a good reason! After all, the Wen family was not stupid.
“You’ll know when the time comes.” Zheng En smiled mysteriously.
“Then I wish you success first. At that time, someone might ask to watch you refine pills. You have to be mentally prepared,” Yechen reminded him.
“Don’t worry, I’m already prepared.” Zheng En was full of confidence, not worried that the Wen family would make such a request.
The next day.
The Wen Family’s butler came early.
“Sir Silly, here are the precious herbs you need. Uh! When will you start refining pills?” The Head Butler handed over a storage ring. Even though his heart was bleeding, he still asked with a smile.
“Since I’ve prepared all the herbs I need, I can start refining pills at any time!” Zheng En said readily.
“Excellency Ersha, um… the elders are all very interested in your alchemy. I wonder if we can be present to watch?” The butler pretended to be in a difficult position, his face filled with antic.i.p.ation.
“Of course! I don’t carry people when I refine pills.” Zheng En replied readily. Hehe! He had indeed brought it up. Actually, he was really afraid that the Wen family wouldn’t ask to see him refine pills! This way, even if he used up all his medicinal herbs, the Wen family probably wouldn’t say anything.
“Thank you, Excellency Ersha.” The Head Butler heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, he knew that many alchemists did not like to be disturbed when refining pills. Therefore, when he came, he did not have much hope for this request of his. Well! He did not expect Excellency Ersha to be quite easy to talk to. This was much better than many arrogant alchemists.
“Head butler, I can refine pills for your Wen family because of ape feces, so there’s no need to be so polite. By the way, I’m going to start refining soon. Get all the elders who want to see it to come!” Zheng En reminded.
“All right, I’ll let them know,” the Head butler said quickly, and left.
Not long after, the Head butler led a group of elders to Zheng En’s residence.
In the room, Zheng En looked at the elders in front of him and said enthusiastically, “Everyone, sit anywhere you want. Don’t stand on ceremony!”
“No, no. Don’t worry, Excellency Ersha. We won’t disturb you while you refine pills,” an elder said. He looked polite and terrified, as if they were the guests.
