Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 23 Linfei and Snow Fairy

The woman was tall and slender, with eyes and brows as clear as a cold spring on a snow-capped mountain.

With her delicate face, slender eyebrows, and graceful figure, she wore a tight-fitting silver dress. The silver clothing complemented her warm, jade-like skin, giving her an undeniable, unique, and icy metallic charm.

What surprised people the most was that this woman in silver robes actually had long, waist-length silver hair!

This silver color wasn't the pale silver that mutated due to some kind of illness; it was as soft as silver threads, drifting and swaying, which gave the woman in the silver robe a strange allure.

Compared to her, the woman named Linfei lacked that ethereal quality, especially her soft, lustrous silver hair, which was full of charm.

Seemingly sensing Lin Ran's undisguised gaze, the woman in the silver robe frowned slightly and walked to Lin Fei's side: "You cut in line, Lin Fei."

"It doesn't matter, what could he possibly have to auction off?"

Linfei snorted unhappily, muttering to herself. She glanced at Lin Ran, whom she had squeezed behind her, but in the end, she returned to Lin Ran's back, sticking out her thin tongue: "Sorry, you go first."

"Oh my, isn't this the young city lord's and Master Frank's disciple? Come in, come in!"

Before Lin Ran could speak, the people in the treasure appraisal room had obviously noticed the commotion and recognized the two women. They quickly greeted them and respectfully ushered them inside.

Lin Ran was left alone, standing at the doorway.

"Young Master."

Little Fairy Doctor arrived late and, noticing the person in charge's attitude, immediately stamped her foot: "How tactless of them! They actually served those two who cut in line first!"

"It's alright."

Lin Ran smiled calmly and stepped inside.

The previous conversation had indeed awakened Lin Ran's memories; the two women seemed to be the same two who had competed with Xiao Yan in alchemy in the original story.

One of them is the daughter of the city lord of Blackrock City, while the other silver-haired girl should be Frank's disciple, the guild master of the Blackrock City Alchemist Guild.

In the original story, Xiao Yan went to the Alchemist Guild to receive his level and met them. He never expected that he would run into these two people when he was just idly choosing a city and auction. He really didn't know whether to call it a coincidence or fate.

"I didn't expect it to be a fourth-grade pill, the Azure Spirit Pill. The medicinal power is so strong. Master Otto's alchemy skills have improved a lot again."

"Huh, this is a high-grade fourth-rank pill, the Weather Pill? Master Frank is still as sharp as ever!"

Lin Ran led Little Fairy Doctor into the treasure appraisal room, where they immediately saw the person in charge carefully holding two treasure boxes as if they were precious treasures, praising them endlessly.

Linfei put her hands on her hips, her pretty face full of pride: "That's for sure! Everyone in Blackrock City knows about my master's alchemy skills!"

"Young City Lord is right, Young City Lord is right. Then may I add these two pills to this Black Rock Special Auction?"

"Of course, what else would I do with it?"

Lin Fei was incredibly proud, while Xue Mei nodded slightly to the side: "Then I'll leave it to you, Your Excellency. By the way, my master instructed that these two pills should only be exchanged for medicinal herbs, with Atractylodes macrocephala fruit, Sichuan pepper flower, and cinnamon cardamom as the priority... If none of these are available, this is the list of alternative medicinal herbs."

As she spoke, Xue Mei took out a list of medicinal herbs and handed it to the person in charge.

"I understand, I understand, please don't worry."

"Then we'll be going now."

The person in charge carefully put the list away, and Xue Mei nodded, pulling Lin Fei towards the outside of the treasure appraisal room.

However, when passing by Lin Ran and Xiao Yixian, Xue Mei still showed Lin Ran an apologetic look, as if to express her apology for using her privilege to cut in line with Lin Fei.

"At least they have some manners."

Lin Ran smiled calmly, said nothing more, and led Little Fairy Doctor to the person in charge.

The person in charge of this matter had just put away the two treasure boxes. The respectful look he had shown to Xue Mei, Lin Fei, and the others had vanished completely. Instead, he used sharp eyes to scan Lin Ran and Little Fairy Doctor.

Lin Ran naturally couldn't see anything. Little Fairy Doctor's physique was special, and Lin Ran's methods were obviously beyond his perception. However, the ice crystal bracelet on Little Fairy Doctor's wrist made him widen his eyes in surprise.

"This is the magic core of a fifth-tier magical beast, the Ice Crocodile?!"

The person in charge's attitude changed instantly, and he quickly put on a smiling face, saying to Lin Ran and Little Fairy Doctor, "Please have a seat, distinguished guests. What would you like to auction?"

"Tch, how snobbish."

Little Fairy Doctor muttered something, her voice faint but perfectly clear in the enclosed room. The person in charge, however, showed no change in expression, his attitude remaining respectful.

Seeing this, Little Fairy Doctor didn't say anything more. With a flick of her slender jade hand, three small jade bottles appeared on the table.

"It's also a pill?!"

Upon hearing the sound of the jade bottle hitting the table, the person in charge was slightly taken aback, looked up, and his gaze fell on the three small jade bottles, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The appearance of two fourth-grade pills was already quite rare, but I never expected to see pills again today.

Although in his heart he didn't think these three bottles of pills could compare to the previous two rank four pills, this was, after all, someone who could use the magic core of a fifth-order magical beast as an ornament, whose foundation was definitely extraordinary. He immediately put on thin transparent gloves and carefully took a small jade bottle.

The jade bottle tilted, and a jade-green pill fell into his palm.

This pill is entirely emerald green and contains an extremely rich fragrance, which has even solidified into a physical form, shimmering with an emerald green light on its surface.

"This, this!"

Gazing at the rich aroma of the pill, the person in charge's expression changed drastically, and he let out an incredulous growl: "The aroma is solidified... a fifth-grade pill?!"

"It is indeed a Grade 5 Restoration Pill."

Little Fairy Doctor snorted lightly, a hint of pride in her voice, and said, "This Restoration Pill can be used to treat some serious injuries. Its medicinal properties are mild and will not cause any damage to the already injured body. It is an excellent pill for healing serious injuries."

"My precious baby! My precious baby!"

The person in charge trembled. This was a fifth-grade pill! Not to mention in Black Rock City, it was a top-tier treasure even in the entire Gama Empire.

The difficulty of refining a fifth-grade pill is extremely high. Even for a fifth-grade alchemist, the success rate is extremely low. Only the legendary Pill King Gu He has the ability to refine it, but even he has a low success rate.

The person in charge carefully placed the Restoration Pill back into the jade bottle, looked at the other two jade bottles, swallowed hard, and said respectfully, "Sir, could you please wait a moment? I need to invite Master Otto and Master Frank from Blackrock City to appraise these pills."

"Please go ahead."

Little Fairy Doctor gave a light snort, glanced at Lin Ran again, and added, "But please hurry!"
