Chapter 35: The Unscrupulous Merchant

  The three days passed quickly, and the day of the university club's grand competition at Yenching University has arrived. Almost all students, teachers, and school leaders are tense because this grand competition will be attended by many big names in society, such as famous calligraphers, painters, writers, high-ranking government officials, and representatives from other universities, who will come to witness the strength of Yenching University students. Therefore, this is not only a matter for students, but also an important event that Yenching University attaches great importance to.

  Just as Xu FeiFei said earlier, if someone can make a stunning appearance in the martial arts competition, they will be watched by the whole society. In other words, many powerful groups and companies will also pay attention to it, and reporters will use this to hype it up. Once you become famous, you'll have laid a good foundation for finding a job after graduation.

  On this grand day, Chu Zifeng didn't show up at school, causing Xu Feifei and Xiao Jing to search for him everywhere. They called his phone countless times, but Chu Zifeng's mobile was always in a powered-off state.

  Inside the blue shell, Huang Xiang was playing with various strange magical instruments, including flashlights, guns and bullets, as well as everyday items like towels and bowls.

  "Zi Feng, little brother, you're not kidding me, are you?! I got so many materials for you, and you use these scraps to fool around with my sister?!"

  When Huang Chao first received the call from Chu Zifeng, he was very excited and boasted in front of all his colleagues that he would definitely bring back a large batch of spiritual weapons. But now, what's in front of him is just one ordinary thing after another, and naturally, Huang Chao feels unfulfilled.

  "Sister Xiang, this is the result of my hard work and a lot of true energy to help you refine this magical instrument! Don't look at its surface, it may not look good, but it's actually very practical!"

  Chu Zi Feng added a trick when refining these artifacts, all of which were one-time use. This way, he wouldn't cut off his own financial path! In other words, each artifact could only be used once and was no different from trash afterwards. That way, when the Tian Long Team needed something, they would still come to him with money in hand to buy more.

  "You say these are also law enforcement tools? Then I'll just casually swipe my card and they'll be here! I said, Brother Zi Feng..."

  Huang Xiang reluctantly turned on a flashlight, and Chu Zifeng immediately dodged to the side, saying "Be careful."

  Whoosh!

  Huang Xiang never expected that when the flashlight's light was released, everything it shone on would instantly turn to nothingness!

  "What's going on here?" Huang Chang exclaimed in surprise.

  "Sister Ling, I've already told you, these are all magical instruments, how can you use them recklessly! The one in your hand, I'll name it 'Destruction Ray', which means that no matter what, under its radiation, everything will be reduced to nothing. And those other magical instruments also have different effects... Take that small bell for example, if you throw it out, it will instantly grow bigger and trap your target, while emitting a strong ringing sound, the person trapped inside will have their muscles and veins shattered by the sound, but the sound can only be heard from within the bell, outside is completely silent... Look at this towel, on the surface it's just an ordinary washcloth, but once you throw it out, it will immediately transform into countless thin steel wires, even steel can't withstand it."

  Listening to Chu Zifeng's introduction, Huang Chang was thoroughly stunned. He didn't expect that the magical instruments refined by Chu Zifeng would be much stronger and more extraordinary than those developed by the Central Government. What's even more surprising is that these magical instruments appear ordinary on the surface, so no one would suspect them. In contrast, the magical instruments developed by the Central Government were either knives or swords, which were too common!

  "Zi Feng, you're really a genius... But why isn't this 'Destruction Beam' working?"

  "Haha, Sister Xiang, don't praise me so early. I forgot to tell you that due to my limited cultivation, all these magical instruments are one-time use only. Once used, they become useless. Otherwise, I wouldn't be selling them to you for 200,000 yuan each so cheaply!"

  Anyway, now it's the country doing business with itself, and not Huang Yuansong personally, so why wouldn't Chu Zifeng make money?

  "Zi Feng's younger brother, you're kidding me! You're charging so much for a disposable law enforcement tool!"

  "It's not expensive, these are all high-quality goods, you've seen it for yourself, the power is much stronger than those of yours. I guarantee it's worth the money. Of course, if you need more in the future, you can come find me again, as long as you promise not to reveal my identity."

  Huang Chang couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Zi Feng, little brother, I finally understand what 'no trickery, no success in business' means. You're a thoroughgoing swindler."

  Chu Zi Feng couldn't help but smile wryly and said, "Sister Yu, no big deal, I'll just give you a discount next time, it's all because of your face, and we're helping the country with this matter. Otherwise, one piece of our equipment is at least worth 500,000!"

  "Hey, you've really got a mind for business, I'm starting to suspect it's genetic."

  "Haha, Sister Chang is being too kind, this is just a small business for me... However, since it's our first time working together, I have another gift for you."

  After finishing, Chu Zifeng took out a pellet-like thing from his pocket that looked like peanuts and handed it to Huang Chang, saying: "Sister Chang, I think your complexion is not very good, I guess the old injury has recurred... You eat this, can cure your old injury."

  Huang Chang was taken aback and asked: "Zi Feng, little brother, how did you know I had an old injury?"

  "You people in this line of work probably don't have any old injuries, right? Believe me, after eating this, your old injuries will heal."

  Huang Chuang's old injury was sustained a year ago during an operation to hunt down a B-level ability user. At that time, the B-level ability user was too powerful, and several of Huang Chuang's colleagues sacrificed themselves. If it weren't for the timely arrival of their team leader at the time, Dong Xie, the network's top hacker, would have disappeared a year ago.

  "Okay, I believe you."

  Huang Chang gave Chu Zi Feng's small pill to himself, and in less than five seconds, he felt a warm current appear in his body. Immediately, all of his old injuries were completely healed!

  "Zi Feng's younger brother, what exactly is it that you're feeding me?" Huang Shan asked with a shocked expression.

  "Hmm, it should be the legendary elixir!"

  Three days ago, the raw materials written to Huang Chang had materials with refined Dan medicine. Chu Zifeng naturally followed the method of "Dan Medicine Classic" to refine the Dan medicine, but the quantity was not much, only three pills, one for Huang Chang, and two for himself!

  "You, you're still an alchemist?"

  "It's okay, just like refining equipment, half a bucket of water, but this wound-healing medicine is still refined!"

  "Haha, Zifeng little brother, I love you so much! You're actually a dual master of Dan equipment. With you by my side, it's like I've gained an extra life. From now on, I won't have to worry about getting hurt!"

  "This and that, Xiang Jie, don't make me a legend, I said, I only have half a bucket of water, so you shouldn't be too careless either, after all, getting hurt will hurt... However, Xiang Jie, you also know that I'm short on money now, and the cost of living in Yanjing is high. If your Tianlong team needs it, hehe, that dan medicine, I can still help out, but still the old rules, can't reveal my identity. You guys prepare the raw materials yourselves, we'll talk about the price later!"

  Huang Chang finally understood how Chu Zifeng refined the Dan medicine, and it turned out that he had been deceived by him. The original materials three days ago not only included equipment for refining instruments but also materials for refining Dan medicine. Otherwise, where would Chu Zifeng get the materials to refine the Dan medicine? Those were all very hard to find!

  "Zi Feng's younger brother, you are indeed a sly merchant!"

  "Haha, Sang Jie is overpraising!"

  "Bring it over."

  "What's going on?"

  "Don't try to fool me with this! You've stolen my raw materials and now you think a single dan medicine can buy me off?"

  "Don't touch, don't touch, I'm just one, and then it's gone!"

  "Don't hide, sis! My job is very dangerous, you don't want anything to happen to me either... Haha, found it!"

  "Sister Ya, you can't have it this way, I've been keeping this one for myself!"

  "You're just a student, as long as you don't cause trouble, what's the point of staying?! Besides, you won't be going to practice anymore!"

  "This, this...... I......"

  "Are there any more? How can you have just one? Hand them all over!"

  "This time it's really gone……" Chu Zifeng was so bitter, the three elixirs he had finally refined with great difficulty were eaten by Huang Chang, snatched away by him, and fortunately one was left in the school dormitory and not brought out, otherwise this time would have been a huge loss!

  "This time I'll let you off, sister still has to rush back for a meeting, you go back to school by yourself, after this matter is settled, sister will find you to settle the account."

  "Uh! Sister Liang, look at that dan medicine, are you going to add some more money or something... even 10,000 yuan is fine... otherwise, can I borrow your Hummer for a few days?"
