The Crazy Son-In-Law

“This reset pellet costs at least 10 billion! Who can afford it?”

“Just because we can’t afford it doesn’t mean others can’t. How else could that reset pellet have been sold in previous years? It just depends on whether someone is willing to sell it or not.”

“This is just too outrageous. I had only heard of such pellets before, didn’t expect they actually exist!”

Yao Cen listened to the discussions around her, feeling dazed and nauseous.

She had seen the reset pellet that Xiao Shun handed to Zhou Tianheng on the big screen earlier. Not only had she seen it before, she had eaten it too. After eating it, she didn’t feel any special effects at all.

That’s not the point. The point is, she heard other people say that thing is worth 100 billion. That means when she ate it, she ate something worth 100 billion!

100 billion! My god, this is heartbreaking!

Xiao Shun said he could make “immortal pills” worth 500 million. Yao Cen thought he was bragging. Now it seems he might not be able to make 500 million ones, but he can make 100 billion ones!

Song Linger silently glanced at Yao Cen.

She also swallowed 100 billion! At least!

If Yao knew I ate 100 billion worth of things from his family, I wonder if he’d want to strangle me?

Among their group, Yang Tiancai had the biggest reaction. He was now in tears, suddenly realizing he had made friends with an absolute big shot!

“May I ask, who exactly are you?”

Zhou Tianheng was also greatly shocked by the reset pellet. He treated Xiao Shun with more respect, slowly standing up and cupping his fists to ask.

“Won’t Mr. Zhou offer an opinion on this reset pellet?” Xiao Shun evaded the question.

“I dare not improperly judge such a divine pellet.”

By saying this, Zhou Tianheng indirectly acknowledged this was undoubtedly a real reset pellet.

He was also at the auction years ago and had seen it up close. No matter its appearance, fragrance, or the strong spiritual aura, everything indicated the pellet before him was indeed a real reset pellet.

“Then may I offer my opinion on the pellets you just auctioned?” Xiao Shun asked lightly with a faint smile.

Zhou Tianheng was slightly surprised and said, “Of course, please go ahead.”

Xiao Shun put away the reset pellet and took the microphone from the host. He cleared his throat.

“The pellets your Old School Society auctioned are all trash!”

The entire venue fell silent.

Thousands of eyes stared at the screen or the center of the venue, all showing astonishment.

Zhou Tianheng and the other two had looks of shock, not reacting for a moment to why he would suddenly attack them.

“Do you admit it?”

Xiao Shun’s gaze quickly swept over the three before finally settling on Zhou Tianheng.

“Young friend, why do you say this?” Zhou Tianheng was clearly angry as he spoke in a deep voice.

“I won’t bother critiquing your low-level pellets. Let me talk about the last three high-priced skin pellet, pulse pellet, and foundation pellet you auctioned. They were personally refined by Mr. Zhou, I heard.”

Xiao Shun held the mic in one hand and had the other tucked in his pocket. He slowly paced near the three, coldly laughing and saying,

“The auxiliary ingredients you used for the skin pellet lacked 2 portions of arsenic and 5 portions of pilose antler grass. You shouldn’t have used leave-fire for refining, so the skin pellet you refined has greatly reduced effects, only 30% of a real skin pellet’s efficacy.”

“The pulse pellet should use tiger bone as the main ingredient, but tiger bone trading is now banned, so I won’t blame you for that. But isn’t replacing it with cat bone too sloppy?”

“In fact, tiger bone can be replaced by a mixture of herbs like ox knee, ginseng, and safflower. The pulse pellet refined this way can achieve over 80% of a real pulse pellet’s efficacy, not like your pulse pellet which barely reaches 20% efficacy.”

Of course Xiao Shun wouldn’t reveal the exact proportions of those herbs, he just gave a rough idea.

As a pellet world master, Zhou Tianheng was extremely intelligent. With just a little prompting, he would understand Xiao Shun might be right.

At this time, Zhou Tianheng’s face was pale white. The loose skin on his face twitched involuntarily a few times and his body trembled slightly.

Xiao Shun’s words were like knives stabbing his heart.

But when he carefully considered Xiao Shun’s words, he realized Xiao Shun was not speaking nonsense, but was well-prepared.

For the pulse pellet, only Zhou Tianheng himself knew the refining process, so it was impossible for anyone to know he had replaced the tiger bone with cat bone.

Even if someone didn’t know the formula, it would be impossible to know what materials the pulse pellet needed!

Yet Xiao Shun was able to see through it in one sentence. Not only that, he even proposed using several herbs to replace tiger bone.

Zhou Tianheng had considered this idea before, but experiments always ended in failure.

Hearing Xiao Shun propose those few herbs now, he suddenly had an enlightened feeling – perhaps this young man really did know the formula for replacing tiger bone with herbs?Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Only now did Haitang and Yang Zino vaguely understand what Xiao Shun was trying to do.

Yang Zino fiercely slammed the railing in front of him and gnashed his teeth, saying, “Is that host an idiot? Why doesn’t he snatch back the mic? Moron!”

His earpiece was also asking what to do, as they were thrown into disarray and didn’t know how to respond.

“Miss Haitang? Should we stop him?” Yang Zino asked.

“It’s too late for that, no need.” Haitang pondered and said.

At this moment, she was also very curious about Xiao Shun.

If his martial strength had already far exceeded her expectations, now the insights he displayed into pellets also made her look at him with new eyes.

Was kicking him out of the Old School Society really the right decision? Haitang suddenly had doubts about this.

“Finally, let me talk about your foundation pellet,” Xiao Shun continued.

“The tiger roar orchid needed to refine the foundation pellet is indeed a good ingredient, but it was wasted in your hands.”

“I don’t know why you added 1 portion of bodhi grass when you already used tiger roar orchid. Don’t you know these two ingredients conflict? The efficacy of tiger roar orchid will be greatly reduced!”

“Plus, the proportions of your other ingredients are imbalanced. So the foundation pellet you refined is defective goods, not even reaching 10% of a real foundation pellet’s efficacy. It’s simply a waste!”

Xiao Shun spoke sonorously and forcefully.

Zhou Tianheng had already collapsed into his chair. He took out a pellet from his clothes with trembling hands and shoved it in his mouth. His complexion was extremely ugly.

Xiao Shun’s words hit the mark every time, stabbing his heart like knives and giving him a deep sense of defeat.

In vain he was called the grandmaster of the pellet world, yet was critiqued to a bloody pulp by an unknown young man. He could not refute it, leaving him feeling utterly hopeless.

The scene was dead silent for a full few seconds.

Buzz!

The clamor surged up once again like a tidal wave.
