High-level female soldiers: My female soldiers are all SSS-rank!

"Tens of millions! This..."

Ye Chu felt as if ten thousand horses were galloping through his heart.

He had originally planned to spend several million to prepare some elixirs for himself.

However, fate is fickle, and when he finally touched the threshold of that world of elixirs, he was shocked to discover...

His seemingly substantial savings were like a drop in the ocean, failing to even make the slightest ripple.

Not to mention the towering peaks of those waves that inspire awe.

At this moment, Ye Chu couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling a deep sense of melancholy.

He was ultimately too naive and had not anticipated the vastness and profundity of the path of cultivation, which far exceeded his limited imagination.

This is not a criticism of him personally, but rather a reflection of the insurmountable gap between reality and ideals.

It was revealed to him quietly, in an almost cruel way.

"I don't need such good pills. I've only just entered the second-tier martial artist stage and can't digest them."

Ye Chu continued speaking without changing his expression.

"Oh, okay."

The woman in the cheongsam smiled understandingly.

In fact, Ye Chu was not wrong. This kind of pill is indeed powerful, but it is not something that a second-level martial artist can take.

Martial artists with excessively low Qi and blood should not consume such a powerful elixir.

Not only will it not improve blood and qi, it will actually cause blood and qi to stagnate.

At best, they vomit blood; at worst, they explode and die.

"Okay, Mr. Ye, I have a few more bottles of pills I can recommend to you."

"One of the bottles contains a pill called 'Qi Transformation Pill,' which can provide a kilocalorie boost to one's Qi and Blood, and is extremely suitable for second-tier martial artists."

"The price is only a little over 17 million."

"Besides that, there is also a bottle of Qi-Nourishing Pill, which is also very good. After taking it, there will be almost no pain."

"It can also provide 800 calories of Qi and Blood, and the price is only 9.99 million yuan."

"Even the young master of the Baisheng Group is very fond of this elixir."

As the woman in the cheongsam spoke, she took the initiative to guide Ye Chu to the pills.

Ye Chu was speechless. The problem wasn't whether he could take it or not.

The problem is, I simply can't afford it!

In fact, Ye Chu really wanted to ask if there were any cheaper pills available.

But considering the surrounding decor and the elegant smile of the woman in the cheongsam in front of him...

For a moment, I couldn't bring myself to say it.

After a moment, Ye Chu said somewhat helplessly, "I'll go look around elsewhere first; maybe there will be more suitable pills for me."

Ye Chu then turned around and prepared to leave.

Upon hearing this, the woman in the cheongsam became somewhat anxious and quickly spoke up.

"Mr. Ye, please don't rush. The price is negotiable. Please have a seat."

"Let me contact my supervisor."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chu nodded, which was taken as agreement.

Sure enough, a short while later, an old man with white hair, dressed in a black suit, ran over.

Unexpectedly, the old man's shrewd face turned into one of fawning the moment he saw Ye Chu.

Ye Chu naturally noticed the old man's change.

Moreover, the old man's flattery became increasingly obsequious from the moment he saw the storage ring on his finger.

"It really is related to this storage ring."

Ye Chu thought to himself.

"Hahaha, young friend Ye Chu, I have long admired your name, it is truly a great honor to finally meet you today! How delightful!"

His words were filled with undisguised joy and warmth, then his gaze shifted, and he gave a light rebuke with a touch of authority yet a hint of humor.

"What are you waiting for? Quickly serve young friend Ye Chu some of the finest tea from our shop! Do not neglect him!"

Upon hearing this, the girl in the exquisite cheongsam standing to the side showed a mixture of panic and awe on her face. She quickly left with light but hurried steps, as if afraid of missing this rare opportunity to serve.

"Oh? Young friend Ye Chu, I was very concerned when I heard that you needed some medicine. I wonder if you need a holy medicine for healing, a pill to improve your cultivation, or something else? Please speak freely, and I will do my best to help you."

As he spoke, his eyes revealed sincerity and expectation, as if he could find anything in the world for Ye Chu as long as he spoke.

Looking at the obsequious old man, Ye Chu was still somewhat wary, but he still spoke up.

"I want some cheaper pills, preferably around a few million."

"The reason is simple: I need to keep the rest of the money for other purposes."

Upon hearing this, the old man's smile seemed to falter slightly. He quickly adjusted his expression, coughed lightly, and responded in a more tactful and sincere tone.

"Haha, young friend Ye Chu, you are quick-witted and outspoken, truly a man of character, untouched by worldly vanities. With such a spirit, you are sure to one day achieve lofty ambitions and accomplish extraordinary feats!"

The old man smiled broadly and offered a few words of praise.

He then continued, "Young friend Ye Chu, that storage ring on your finger is quite beautiful. May I ask who gave it to you?"

Ye Chu was taken aback, not expecting this old guy to get straight to the point so quickly.

However, Ye Chu wouldn't be foolish enough to answer every question asked.

"It was a gift from someone I know, of course."

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression froze instantly, then returned to normal in a flash.

"It was my fault for being confused and asking about young friend Ye Chu without thinking. Please don't blame me, please don't blame me."

"After all, for many martial artists, who their master is is a closely guarded secret. This old man is really confused."

The old man smiled slightly, then took out several bottles of pills from his pocket and placed them in front of Ye Chu.

"These are all low-grade pills, and they're cheap, costing less than two million."

"Of course, I would also like to make friends with young friend Ye Chu, so young friend Ye Chu only needs one million to take it."

Ye Chu glanced at it.

The panels displaying several bottles of pills naturally appeared in front of him.

The low-grade pills that others are talking about may be the pills worth tens of millions that the woman in the cheongsam mentioned earlier.

"Senior, you must be joking. I can't afford the price of these pills."

"Besides, I just want a fair trade, so you don't need to think about unnecessary things."

Ye Chu's tone was indifferent, clearly indicating that he did not want to accept this generous gift for no reason.

The old man's eyes widened as he looked at Ye Chu.

For a moment, they couldn't quite grasp Ye Chu's thoughts.

After that, they could only take a few bottles from the pills, leaving only the last one.

"The Qi-Nourishing Pill, young friend Ye Chu, if you want it, you can pay a deposit of 400 million first, and then just give it to me after the Martial Arts Competition."

……

Watching Ye Chu's retreating figure as he headed towards the cultivation room, the old man's expression shifted repeatedly.

"Manager."

The woman in the cheongsam spoke somewhat nervously.

Unexpectedly, the old man's expression suddenly turned sharp, and he slapped the woman in the cheongsam hard across the face.

"You slut, you think you can get into a big shot's bed with your looks alone?"
