Xu Xin exchanged pleasantries with Emperor Xue Ye for a while.
No one spoke first about their intentions.
Xu Xin was also speaking in cryptic terms: if you don't live, I won't mention it.
Anyway, let's just wait and see how determined he is to get the elixir.
Seeing that the situation was about right, Xue Ye finally spoke up, even though he was in a good mood.
"My Lord, I have come here today to ask you for a favor."
Emperor Xue Ye slowly spoke, "This Shadow Palace Master is truly difficult to deal with; he refuses to budge no matter what..."
It's amazing that someone so young has such thoughts.
"Your Majesty, please speak. If it is possible, our Shadow Palace will naturally support it."
Xu Xin smiled and looked at Emperor Xue Ye.
"In that case, I won't hide it anymore."
"I have come here to ask the Palace Master for a Mysterious Water Pill for my good-for-nothing child."
Xue Ye spoke slowly, his tone revealing helplessness; the hearts of parents are truly selfless.
A child of Xue Ye?
Xu Xin watched the Xue Ye without showing any emotion.
Xu Xin remembered that there were four children on that Xue Ye.
Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, killed two of them but spared the smallest Xue Beng.
However, the Xue Beng probably hasn't been born yet.
If we're asking for medicine, should we give it to Xue Qinghe? Or to the other two?
However, Xu Xin remembered reading somewhere in unofficial history that Xue Ye had a son with decent cultivation talent, although he eventually died.
Xue Qinghe seems to be the eldest prince. I don't know the name of the second prince, nor the name of the third prince. Xu Xin does remember the fourth prince, Xue Beng, who survived to the end.
(PS: The author did a lot of research, and most of the information indicates that Xue Qinghe is the eldest prince, while some say he is the third prince. Here, we will say he is the eldest prince.)
If it weren't for the Xue Beng that allowed them to survive until the very end, the fate of the Heavenly Dou Empire might have been uncertain.
Now, coming to seek medicine on a Xue Ye, is it for which prince?
"Mysterious Water Pill?"
"I wonder for which son is the Medicine for?"
Xu Xin slowly opened his mouth and asked.
"My eldest son, Qinghe."
Emperor Xue Ye slowly said, "If possible, I would also like to request one for my second son, Luozhou."
Xu Xin nodded. His eldest son was Xue Qinghe, and his second son was Xue Luozhou.
In that case, the third son's talent must be the best.
However, I wonder how old Xue Ye's third son is now.
Xue Qinghe, the guy who was replaced by Qian Renxue.
Xu Xin pondered in his mind just how big Xue Qinghe and Xue Luozhou were now. (PS: The following is the author's deduction, which is also necessary for the plot. Although it may not be accurate, it makes sense and does not affect the reading experience. Readers, please don't worry too much about it.)
Xu Xin knew that Qian Renxue was 9 years older than Tang San, and that Qian Renxue had been sent to kill Xue Qinghe when she was young (around 7 or 8 years old).
It's after about 6 or 7 years since Tang San was born. If we follow the original timeline, Qian Renxue should already be born now, but Xu Xin's appearance has disrupted that.
This resulted in Qian Renxue being born late.
Xue Qinghe was about 12 years old when he was killed.
By all accounts, Xue Qinghe should have already awakened his martial soul by now, and he's a little younger than me, around 7 years old.
In another 5 or 6 years, when he will be about 12 years old, he will have died around that age in the original story.
That makes sense then.
As for Xue Luozhou, he must have only recently awakened his martial soul, so his talent is definitely not high.
Xue Qinghe needs no further explanation. Qian Renxue had kept it a secret for so long, only daring to reveal her Soul King strength, and her talent was not high.
No wonder he came to ask for elixirs on a Xue Ye.
Of Xue Ye's sons, only the third son was somewhat capable, but even he was destined to die.
The third and fourth sons should be born soon, probably even bigger than Tang San.
"Your Majesty should know the importance of the Mysterious Water Pill; so far, only one has been produced."
"I don't know, Your Majesty..."
Xu Xin didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was crystal clear: the Mysterious Water Pill was available, it was just a matter of what price you were willing to pay.
"Thirty million gold soul coins. If possible, I would like to buy two."
Xue Ye set a price directly, pushing it to its peak.
It's actually already very high, ridiculously high.
Even the Mysterious Water Pill in the Douluo 2 couldn't sell for this price. It's only because it's currently in the first stage of the Douluo Dalu that this thing is a rare product with powerful effects.
At this point in time, having innate soul power level 7 is already considered genius. Back then, that old guy in Coconut Grove City was negligent in his duties. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be scrambling to let Xu Xin join the Spirit Hall.
The Mysterious Water Pill made by Xu Xin contains herbs with both ice and fire properties, so its effects are definitely better.
It is highly effective for those with innate soul power below level 7.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Xue Ye will have a genius.
Not to mention, that genius is a prince, so Xue Ye will definitely pay even more attention to him.
Xu Xin shook his head: "Your Majesty, our Shadow Palace has no shortage of gold soul coins."
Gold Soul Coins? Now that we're cooperating with the Spirit Hall, we're making a fortune, we don't need that little bit of money.
"If that's the case, I can add another title to the Lord's title. What does Your Highness think?"
Xue Ye was slightly taken aback, then spoke.
Xu Xin shook his head again. This title was useless to him; he lacked nothing.
"What does the Palace Master require?"
"If it were something from my royal family, it would be good to form a friendship with the Palace Master."
Xue Ye spoke generously, seemingly unconcerned.
Xu Xin pretended to ponder for a moment: "I wonder if Your Majesty has any precious treasures or the like? If so, trading for this would be acceptable."
A priceless treasure? Hearing that word...
Xue Ye immediately thought of that dusty, useless national treasure kept in the imperial treasury.
But then he shook his head. Although that thing was said to be for collecting dust, it was still a national treasure. How could he give it away so easily?
Unless... you pay more...
It's not that it can't be done, it's that the benefits aren't enough.
If the Shadow Lord offers enough benefits, it's not impossible.
Seeing Xue Ye's expression, Xu Xin knew what he was thinking.
"Is it a priceless treasure?"
He murmured softly in the Xue Ye, hesitating whether or not to bring it up.
"The royal family does possess a priceless treasure, but..."
Xue Ye smiled faintly. After thinking for a moment, she decided to speak up; exchanging a useless treasure for two geniuses... was worth it.
"Oh? Your Majesty, what is it?" Xu Xin said deliberately.
"Vast Ocean Universe Cover!"
Xue Ye spoke with a smile.
"The Vast Ocean Universe Cover? Your Majesty, let's speak frankly."
"I've heard of this thing before, but it doesn't seem to be very useful."
Xu Xin stared blankly at the Xue Ye.
Xue Ye looked embarrassed; he had miscalculated, as the other party had actually heard of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.
However, seeing Dugu Bo beside Xu Xin, he felt relieved. This was not a secret; it was normal for Dugu Bo to have heard about it. Presumably, it was Dugu Bo who told the Shadow Palace Master.
