134: Would you two like to try the elixir?

"Yes," Li Yi replied.

"I didn't realize you were an Alchemist. What grade Alchemist are you?"

The Demon Elder inquired.

"Third-Grade."

The Demon Elder exclaimed in surprise, "You're a Third-Grade Alchemist!?"

Third-Grade Alchemists are extremely rare in the entire Third Layer, so few that they can be counted on one hand.

Demons are naturally afraid of fire, and Alchemy is especially difficult for them, which is why Alchemists are scarce.

After learning that Li Yi was a Third-Grade Alchemist, the Elder's gaze towards Li Yi became fervent, and his attitude improved significantly.

A fawning expression appeared on the Demon Elder's Face, clearly indicating his desire to curry favor with Li Yi.

Seeing that the Demon Elder intended to flatter him, Li Yi suddenly conceived a plan. Could he perhaps ask for some benefits from him?

Li Yi spoke, "Elder, I need some more medicinal herbs for recent Alchemy. May I take some herbs for Alchemy? If successful, I can give some to the Elder as a token of gratitude."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Elder became interested and pondered, "Since you are a Third-Grade Alchemist, you are a distinguished guest of our Ghost Division. If you can truly refine Third-Grade Medicinal Pills, you'll have all the medicinal herbs you need."

A Third-Grade Alchemist joining the Ghost Division would be a great joyous occasion for the entire Ghost Division, worthy of celebration.

However, he did not publicize it. Some things are better kept quiet; good things should be hidden so that other tribes don't find out, or they might abduct the person.

As long as Li Yi could refine Third-Grade Medicinal Pills for the Ghost Division, benefiting the Ghost Division, then naturally, he would be given as many medicinal herbs as he wanted.

"Besides that, I also need some Yao Beast Cores," Li Yi continued.

The Demon Elder thought for a moment, "Alright, but I can only give you some first. The items in the treasury cannot be mobilized just by asking. You had better truly be able to refine Third-Grade Medicinal Pills."

Resources could be given to Li Yi, but only if Li Yi truly helped the tribe.

Currently, Li Yi had done nothing; he was just making demands. How many resources he could truly be given depended on how much value Li Yi could bring to the Ghost Division.

If Li Yi was indeed a Third-Grade Alchemist, refining Third-Grade Medicinal Pills for the Ghost Division, then he could have as many resources as he desired.

Li Yi was well aware of this principle and left after receiving ten Yao Beast Cores and sufficient herbs.

"It seems this path is much safer than directly stealing," Night Crow said.

"It's too slow."

For Li Yi, this was far from enough. The acquisition time was too long, and he would have to share with others. It was too slow to make money; direct robbery was much faster.

Li Yi did not have much time left in the Demon Sealing Realm and had to seize the opportunity to make money.

Focus on making money! Nothing else should disturb me!

Li Yi returned to his room and immediately began refining Medicinal Pills.

Night Crow watched expectantly from the side. Before long, Li Yi successfully refined three Third-Grade Medicinal Pills and seven Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills.

"What are these three Third-Grade Medicinal Pills for?"

Having consumed too many Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills, Night Crow showed no interest in the Third-Grade Medicinal Pills.

Li Yi could have clearly refined Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills with those three Yao Beast Cores, but he chose to reduce the herbs and only refine Third-Grade Medicinal Pills, which was truly a waste of resources.

Li Yi explained, "We need to report to the Elder. We can't possibly report with Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills, can we? He would explode. Third-Grade Medicinal Pills are already sufficient."

"I thought you would take out Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills and scare the Elder speechless."

After spending this time together, Night Crow had come to understand Li Yi's personality, knowing that he liked to show off his brilliance.

Li Yi explained, "After all, we're on someone else's territory; we have to give them some Face, don't we?"

Hearing Li Yi's words, Night Crow chuckled, "The entire Demon Sealing Realm is still my territory, so why don't you give me some Face?"

"It used to be yours; it's not anymore," Li Yi said bluntly.

Night Crow wanted to vomit blood; he was hurt.

He threw two Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills to Night Crow.

Medicinal Pills are not a case of the more you eat, the better. One must pay attention to their medicinal properties. Eating too much, reaching saturation, will reduce the efficacy.

Overdosing on some Medicinal Pills can even be harmful to the body, potentially causing one's strength to become unstable.

Li Yi looked out the window, his target locked on the two female demons patrolling at night.

Although Li Yi could now move around at night, he had an even better plan that required the help of these two demons.

Judging by their attitude towards Li Yi, it should be easy to win them over.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Li Yi fanned out the scent of the Medicinal Pills—the medicinal fragrance of Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills.

As expected, their sensitive noses caught the scent of the Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills.

To them, Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pills were rare treasures, only heard of but never seen. The fragrance of such Medicinal Pills captivated the two demons, their mouths practically watering.

"It's the scent of Medicinal Pills, so fragrant!"

"It must be at least a Third-Grade Medicinal Pill."

"Why do I feel like it's a Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pill?"

"What a joke. How could there be a Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pill here? What kind of treasure would a Fourth-Grade Medicinal Pill be? They must all be in the treasury; they wouldn't be brought out for us to know about."

"That's true. Where is this Medicinal Pill scent coming from?"

"Oh, it seems to be coming from Ghost Yi's room. Let's go check it out."

The two demons came to Ghost Yi's room, wanting to see what was going on.

"Could Ghost Yi be an Alchemist?"

"I don't know, but the Medicinal Pill smells so good, I want to eat it."

"Such a fragrant Medicinal Pill must be at least Third-Grade."

"Not sure, we'll know if we ask."

"Wouldn't that be too presumptuous?"

"What's presumptuous about it? Just say we're checking rooms."

After the two demons discussed it, they prepared to knock on the door and inquire.

Creak! Before they could knock, Li Yi opened the door.

"Did the two of you smell the Medicinal Pill's fragrance? Since you're interested in Medicinal Pills, why don't you come in and sit down?" Li Yi invited.

Night Crow clicked his tongue inwardly. It was just like a man with ill intentions inviting an innocent girl inside, clearly plotting something.

He silently ate his Medicinal Pills, watching to see how Li Yi planned to trick and deceive them this time.

They hadn't intended to enter the room because they had important patrol duties, but it was Ghost Yi's invitation, making it difficult for them to refuse. They agreed, figuring it wouldn't delay things, as they weren't the only ones on patrol anyway.

Ghost Yi invited them in. Could he be interested in them, in that way?

They had already expressed their feelings this morning, so they naturally wouldn't resist, and might even look forward to something happening.

Thus, the two happily walked inside and closed the door behind them.

Compared to Li Yi's ill intentions, theirs were the real ones.

They stared intently at Li Yi, their desire to mate with him practically written on their Faces.
