Chapter 334 So Domineering
Chapter 334 So Domineering
After receiving a positive answer from Manager Wei, Shen Yi's gaze towards the Blood Feather Chicken completely changed. It was a chicken that could help martial artists quickly increase their qi and blood, and even help them break through bottlenecks...
A fiery glint flashed in Shen Yi's eyes as he asked, "Manager Wei, how does the effect of this Blood Feather Chicken compare to that of medicinal herbs?"
"It is far superior!"
Without hesitation, Manager Wei replied, "Ordinary medicinal herbs have negligible effects on martial artists, only slightly increasing their qi and blood strength. But the Blood Feather Chicken..."
Shopkeeper Wei paused for a moment, then continued, "According to the patriarch, an average ninth-rank martial artist only needs to eat about three Blood Feather Chickens to reach the peak of the ninth rank, while an eighth-rank martial artist needs to eat about five Blood Feather Chickens to reach the peak of the eighth rank."
hiss!
Shen Yi couldn't help but gasp. If the Blood Feather Chicken really had the effects as Manager Wei had said, then its effects were simply too terrifying.
It should be noted that a martial artist who has just entered the ninth rank needs at least a dozen medicinal herbs to reach the peak of the ninth rank, while an eighth-rank martial artist needs at least twenty medicinal herbs to reach the peak.
Take Shen Yi as an example. His aptitude was not bad, but it took him three whole years to go from the eighth rank to the peak of the eighth rank.
The reason his cultivation is so slow is because...
The supply of medicinal herbs cannot keep up.
He needed to earn money himself and then buy medicinal herbs. He earned money for three whole years while buying medicinal herbs to cultivate, and only recently did he reach the peak of the eighth rank.
However, Manager Wei told him that just five Bloodfeather Chickens would be enough to make up for three years of his hard work...
This made Shen Yi feel inexplicably sad, and his gaze toward the Blood Feather Chicken became even more ardent: "Manager Wei, I wonder how effective the Blood Feather Chicken is at breaking through realms?"
Having been observing Shen Yi's expression, Manager Wei, sensing that he was already interested, stroked his beard and smiled, "Brother Shen, you're at the peak of the eighth rank now, right? If you eat Blood Feather Chicken, you'll probably only need one or two to advance to the seventh rank!"
Shen Yi was stunned and frozen in place!
Just one or two Bloodfeathered Chickens are enough to break through to the seventh rank...
Shen Yi's gaze was fixed on the clucking blood-feathered chickens in the cage, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes. There were dozens of blood-feathered chickens on the shelf; if he could get them all...
Shen Yi quickly shook his head, shaking off the greedy thoughts in his mind. This was Zheng Baolou; to rob him here would be asking for a quick death.
"Manager Wei, may I ask how much this Blood Feather Chicken costs?"
At this moment, a voice came from behind Shen Yi. Shen Yi suddenly turned around and saw that the area behind him was already packed with people. All the guests on the second floor had gathered behind him, their eyes fixed on the Blood Feather Chicken, as if it were not a chicken but a naked beauty.
Seeing the crowd gather around, Manager Wei remained calm and said with a smile, "Blood Feather Chicken is not expensive, only 100 taels of silver per chicken."
"..."
The crowd fell silent, feeling an urge to punch this old man Wei to death. 100 taels of silver a piece isn't expensive? Why don't you just rob someone?
Of course, everyone knew that if the Blood Feather Chicken really had such miraculous effects as Manager Wei said, then 100 taels of silver was indeed not expensive.
It should be noted that a dose of medicinal herbs used by an eighth-grade martial artist costs at least 50 taels of silver, while a dose of herbs for breaking through to the peak of the eighth grade costs at least 100 taels of silver, and even then, success is not guaranteed.
In comparison, blood-feathered chickens are indeed not expensive.
"Manager Wei."
A burly man clasped his hands in a fist salute to Manager Wei and asked, "What is the purpose of the Crimson Blood Chicken?"
"So it's Master Han."
Shopkeeper Wei also bowed to the man, whose name was Han Qing. He was one of the sons of Han Yue, the master of the Suiyue Martial Arts School, and his strength was currently at the initial seventh rank.
“This Red Blood Chicken is somewhat different from the Blood Feather Chicken.”
Manager Wei explained, "The Blood Feather Chicken is mainly effective against ninth-rank and eighth-rank martial artists, while the Crimson Blood Chicken is effective against seventh-rank martial artists."
"really?"
Han Qing asked, her eyes shining.
"It's true."
Manager Wei nodded: "This is what the head of the family said himself, there can be no mistake!"
"If Prefect Zheng said it himself, then it must be true!"
Han Qing asked eagerly, "Manager Wei, how much does this Crimson Blood Chicken cost?"
"200 taels each."
hiss!
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. 200 taels of silver per animal—this price was beyond the reach of many. Even for martial artists, 200 taels was no small sum.
Fortunately, most of them were martial artists of the eighth or ninth rank, so they didn't need the Crimson Blood Chicken.
On the contrary, Han Qing, who was at the seventh rank, pondered for a moment and said, "Manager Wei, give me 10 Blood Feather Chickens and 5 Crimson Blood Chickens."
"no problem."
Manager Wei beckoned to one of Zheng Baolou's employees and asked him to take out 10 Blood Feather Chickens and 5 Crimson Blood Chickens to give to Han Qing.
Han Qing, who was holding the cage in his hand, said, "I didn't bring this much money with me today. I'll have someone bring the money over later."
"can."
Manager Wei nodded in agreement. Han Qing was one of the young masters of the Suiyue Martial Arts School. The Suiyue Martial Arts School was a large and powerful organization, so Manager Wei was not afraid that he would renege on his debts.
"Manager Wei, give me two Blood Feathered Chickens."
"I want a Bloodfeathered Chicken."
"I want one too."
"..."
After Han Qing, the other martial artists also took out their money bags to buy Blood Feather Chickens. Before long, all 50 Blood Feather Chickens on the shelf were sold out.
Shen Yi, carrying a Bloodfeathered Chicken, looked at the empty shelf and couldn't help but feel glad that he had acted early; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have gotten his hands on the Bloodfeathered Chicken.
Just look at the martial artists who came later. They rushed over after receiving the news, but the Blood Feather Chickens were already sold out. They could only slap their thighs in frustration, regretting that they hadn't come sooner.
"I hope this blood-feathered chicken is really as effective as Manager Wei said."
After leaving Zheng Baolou with the blood-feathered chicken, Shen Yi rushed home and slit the chicken's throat to bleed it.
Soon, Shen Yi walked out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of chicken blood.
Looking at the thick, fresh blood in the bowl, Shen Yi felt somewhat uncomfortable. People who are used to cooked food are bound to be a little resistant to drinking raw blood. Fortunately, this blood feather chicken blood did not have any strange smell, unlike ordinary raw chicken blood which is hard to swallow.
Shen Yi tilted his head back and, suppressing his discomfort, drank the bowl of chicken blood in one gulp!
The chicken blood flowed down his esophagus into his stomach, and Shen Yi quickly felt the effects.
A warm sensation arose in his stomach, which spread throughout his body. Soon, Shen Yi's skin flushed red, and even his face turned as if it were congested with blood.
"This chicken blood effect is incredibly powerful!"
Shen Yi was not surprised but delighted. This feeling of warmth throughout his body was a sign that his blood and qi were rising!
He immediately got up and practiced the Wind-Breaking Fist martial art in the open space of his home.
