CHAPTER 150: CHAPTER 150: A NARROW PATH BRINGS AN ENCOUNTER

Outside the Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall, a small figure had barely stepped in before being driven out.

"Where did this kid come from? This is not a place for you to play, get out, get out."

Xin Lin’s face was full of gloom.

It’s really true that a lack of money can kill a hero.

Even with the help of the Dan Wood Furnace, knowing the antidote to the Three Corpse Poison, and even the precise ingredients and heat control, she still had to concoct the antidote herself.

Xin Lin had only come into contact with the Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder before and knew that it was Mortal Medicine.

Just the Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder alone would cost a hefty sum of silver taels.

The Jade Marrow Pill was a Top-grade Jade Elixir, and Xin Lin had a premonition that the ingredients would also be quite costly.

Sure enough, the moment she stepped into the Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall and had just inquired about the price of the Wind Breath Grass, without even asking about things like Golden Crow Egg Shells, she was thrown out directly.

The clerks of Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall looked down on her with disdain and spat at the entrance where Xin Lin was standing.

"What is this, you, a poor thing, want to buy Wind Breath Grass?"

Xin Lin was about to retort when suddenly, laughter came from behind her.

"Tsk tsk, what kinds of people we have these days. A poor ghost dares to buy medicinal materials of Lower Jade Rank. Even selling you wouldn’t be enough for a single stalk of grass."

Behind Xin Lin, a familiar voice resounded.

Upon hearing the voice, Xin Lin quickly lowered her head and moved to the side.

"Manager Chu, what wind has blown you here?"

The clerk of the Alchemy Hall, who had just been scolding Xin Lin a moment earlier, immediately became obsequious upon seeing the newcomer, eagerly stepping forward to greet him.

Chu Yuan from the Imperial Doctor Mansion, along with several guards from the Mansion, swaggered over.

Indeed, foes are bound to meet along a narrow road.

Chu Yuan did not recognize Xin Lin.

Previously, Xin Lin was disguised as a boy, but today she had changed into normal girl’s attire. Chu Yuan didn’t take a proper look at her and naturally did not recognize that she was the little boy from the inn a few days ago.

"I’m just looking around. I have a batch of fine medicinal materials to see if you guys are willing to pay the right price."

Chu Yuan couldn’t be bothered with Xin Lin and walked inside.

Xin Lin’s eyes grew deeper, and Fu Xi’s Energy gathered in her gaze.

She saw several stalks of Polygonum multiflorum and a few boxes of unnamed medicinal materials hidden in Chu Yuan’s clothes.

These things were not unfamiliar to Xin Lin; they were clearly the medicinal materials Chu Yuan had transported back to the city a few days ago.

Without a doubt, this guy must have pocketed some of the materials and sneaked them out to sell, keeping it from the Imperial Doctor Mansion.

The clerks of Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall seemed not surprised and welcomed Chu Yuan inside.

"Take out the Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder in your Alchemy Hall. The young lady needs a top-grade bottle soon for the Zixiao Palace Exam."

Before entering, Chu Yuan shouted an order.

The idiot had disappeared last night and had not been found since, which made the Second Master very angry.

The young lady was the Second Master’s cherished daughter. If he could help her shine in the Zixiao Palace Exam, surely the Second Master would not blame him for incompetence.

"Buying Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder?"

Xin Lin stopped in her tracks when she heard this.

She had a bottle of Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder, which was specially concocted with added ingredients by her.

The Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder in Xin Lin’s hands contained Red Toad Powder.

After consuming the Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder, she had transformed from having wasted veins to one vein. If someone from the Chu Mansion were to consume it...

Thinking this, Xin Lin took out the Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder from her bosom.

The Chu Mansion’s young lady, wasn’t she her cheap cousin (sister)?

Heh heh... if that’s the case, then as her cousin (sister), she would present a generous gift.
