Chapter 221: Not Allowed

"Are you serious? Can I exchange for the Breakthrough Pill for free? Then I'll let my nephew go too!"

  "My niece is a casual cultivator. She's 28 this year. Can she go too?"

  "You can heal people with physical disabilities, really? My cousin's Dantian is damaged, can you cure that? He is at the Nascent Soul stage!"

  After being shocked, everyone started asking questions one after another.

  Shopkeeper Niu answered them one by one.

  "Yes, that's right. If you are not sure, you can just ask someone to come in ten days. In short, as long as the disciple is accepted by the Xianlai Sect, he may get it, whether it is healing or free breakthrough pills."

  After Shopkeeper Niu made sure that the message had been delivered and made it clear enough, he did not waste any more time and immediately started selling the second batch of Breakthrough Pills.

  It was different from the last time when some people expressed doubts when selling the pills, and there were more than one or two people who wanted to bargain.

  But this time it was different. The customers paid very quickly, as if they were afraid that their money would be snatched away by others if they were slow.

  But almost everyone will ask: Can I really only buy one? How about two?

  This is of course not possible.

  Although many of these fifty people may be from the same family, and someone may be buying on their behalf, this cannot be completely prohibited.

  At least, we cannot allow one person to buy multiple breakthrough pills openly, as that would be too unfair to others.

  The transaction of fifty pills was completed quite quickly, and the time was far less than the time everyone had to travel and wait.

  "Please, give me this pill! My brother is suffering from a demon in his heart and will not live long. He urgently needs a breakthrough pill to save his life!"

  Just when the last pill was being traded, a woman at the back knelt down and begged, pulling at the clothes of the customer in front of her and crying.

  The person being pulled was a middle-aged male cultivator. He frowned impatiently and knocked her arm away with his hand. "First come, first served. I'm in front of you. This pill is mine. You need it, so don't I need it?"

  "You bought it to improve your cultivation. Even if this one doesn't work, you can still wait for the next one. But my brother can't wait any longer. Wuwu... Please! Shopkeeper, please sell this one to me!"

  After the woman knelt down to that man, she began to kneel down to the shopkeeper Niu.

  At this time, the monks who were watching had not yet dispersed and witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

  "Poor thing, she was just unlucky, only ranked 51st and just missed the chance to take the elixir."

  "Alas, if she was only one person short of the first batch, she could still buy it. But this batch is different. The first fifty people all bought it, and no one gave up. So naturally she couldn't get a bargain."

  "If it's to save someone, then it's okay to give it to her, right? It won't cost a little while."

  "That's right. After the second batch is sold out, there will be a third batch. It will only take a month or so. Why not give the pills to her?"

  Everyone saw it, and many people felt sympathy.

  But some people disagree with giving in.

  "She needs it, but others don't? It's her problem that she didn't get the chance, so why should she ask others to fulfill her wish? Do they owe her something?"

  "That's right. We all worked hard to line up, why should we give way?"

  "Maybe someone else is also in urgent need of elixirs to save their lives."

  Shopkeeper Niu was a little apologetic, but he declined the request. "I'm sorry, but the rules cannot be abolished. Unless the guest in front of you voluntarily gives up, I have no right to interfere."  

  But the male guest firmly refused, "I won't let you. I have something to use too."

  Why should I give in? As soon as he heard the news of the sale, he took the teleportation array to Ziye City and waited for a day and a night before he was finally able to buy it.

  Although he was different from this woman, he used the Breakthrough Pill only for cultivation, not for saving his life, but was that the reason why he had to give it to her?

  It was easy to give it to her, but it would be even more difficult to buy it next time.

  The Xianlai Sect was planning to recruit new disciples, so the breakthrough pills might be used exclusively by their own disciples in the future, so he would not give up this one no matter what.

  The woman wiped her tears weakly. Realizing that there was no hope, she stopped begging and just stood up with the help of the ground in grief.

  "Has your brother become a disciple?" someone asked.

  The woman shook her head. "No."

  "If he doesn't have a sect, why not let him try the Xianlai Sect?" the man suggested, "If he is chosen, maybe the Xianlai Sect will use elixirs to save him without your asking."

  The woman was stunned, then hesitated, "But he is already seriously ill and can hardly get up..."

  "What's there to be afraid of? As long as he's still breathing, we can have him brought here. Didn't you say you'll accept him as a disciple in ten days? He should be able to survive ten days, right?"

  Shopkeeper Niu nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, if there is no other way, we can give it a try."

  He also didn't know what level of cultivation this woman's brother had, how old he was, or what his talent was. He could only try his luck and see if the sect leader would like him.

  In fact, let alone others, even Manager Niu himself didn't quite understand the conditions for recruiting people in the Xianlai Sect. It sounded a bit weird.

  But he would not question it, because he saw that the Xianlai Sect was getting better and better, which showed that the leader had vision, and he must have his reasons for doing so!

  The woman clenched her fists. "Okay! I will definitely bring him here when the time comes. Thank you."

  After saying this, the woman left in a hurry.

  "This batch of pills has been sold out. Thank you all for your support. Is there anyone else here to buy something? Please come this way." Shopkeeper Niu smiled, clasped his fists, and pointed to the seat in front of him.

  Just now, we were only selling Breakthrough Pills, and other items were suspended. Now that the Breakthrough Pills are sold out, other items can continue to be sold.

  "Boss, when will your third batch of pills go on sale?"

  "Yeah, how long will it take for the next one? This time the notice was too hasty. Next time, you should let us know a few days in advance."

  Everyone said.

  Shopkeeper Niu smiled and said, "The materials used in the Breakthrough Pills are extremely precious and hard to come by, so they are destined to not be produced in large quantities like other pills. The time for the next batch to go on sale has not yet been determined. I will let you know as soon as I know."

  Hearing that the materials for the Breakthrough Pills were precious and rare, some people wanted to take the opportunity to inquire, "I wonder what medicinal materials are used in the Breakthrough Pills? Why don't you tell us so that we can find them for you, so that we can make more."

  "That's right. There is strength in numbers. Just because you can't find it doesn't mean we can't find it either."

  "Yes, tell me what herbs you used."

  Many people echoed this.

  Some of those who were talking really wanted to find more medicines so that the Xianlai Sect could make more breakthrough pills, so that they wouldn't have to work hard to snatch them.

  But some people want to take the opportunity to find out the recipe of the elixir!
