Chapter 538 Why?
After successfully obtaining the qualification of a junior alchemist, Bai Qinghua received a moon-white robe and a special seal from the Alchemists' Union. He could use the seal to brand the pills he made and then sell them outside. He also received a book of detailed rules for junior alchemists.
After leaving the Alchemist Guild, Bai Qinghua walked while checking the Alchemist Rules that Qi had just obtained. He was shocked after checking the Alchemist Rules. It was clearly written in the rules that 30% of the proceeds from all pills sold by alchemists in the shops under the Alchemist Guild would belong to the Alchemist Guild. Some people might say, can't we just put the pills in shops that do not belong to the Alchemist Guild? The Myriad Worlds are so big, it's impossible that all shops are opened by the Alchemist Guild, right?
Haha, the Ten Thousand Worlds are indeed huge, but the Alchemists' Union is also spread throughout the Ten Thousand Worlds. Of course, not all medicine shops belong to the Alchemists' Union, but any shop that wants to sell medicine must obtain authorization from the Alchemists' Union. In this way, unless the alchemists trade privately, they cannot escape the three-level share. It has to be said that the God King Jijun knows how to make money.
In addition to the quota required for selling pills, every alchemist who passes the assessment of the Alchemists' Union must also hand over a certain number of spirit stones to the Alchemists' Union every year. This amount of spirit stones is called the registration fee, and the higher the level, the more spirit stones you need to hand over. If you don't have spirit stones, you can hand over pills of equivalent value. But if you don't want to hand over anything, I'm sorry, you will be expelled from the Alchemists' Union in the second year. If you want to obtain the qualification of an alchemist again, you can only start from the lowest level and take the exams step by step. The Alchemists' Union has regulations that only one level can be assessed each time, and there must be a minimum of three years between each assessment. For example, Bai Qinghua has just obtained the qualification of a junior low-level alchemist, and if he wants to take the junior intermediate level, he can only wait three years later. Junior low-level alchemists can only refine first-level pills for sale.
Seeing this, Bai Qinghua could only look up at the sky. She was really speechless and could not find the words to describe her feelings at the moment. She felt that this Jijun God King whom she had not yet met must be a perverted control freak. He used layer upon layer of shackles to control all the alchemists in the world in his hands, requiring them to collect elixirs with great effort and earn spirit stones through hard alchemy. His level was also to suppress their levels, so that even if the alchemists with excellent talents improved their alchemy level very quickly, they could not get the corresponding alchemist level. For example, Bai Qinghua was obviously a holy alchemist, but according to the current assessment requirements of the Alchemists' Union, she would not be able to get the corresponding qualification until at least thirty-six years later. Everyone says that there is no time in cultivating immortals, but the immortal cultivators in this world are not all gifted people. On the contrary, most of them are ordinary people with ordinary spiritual roots and ordinary qualifications. Their lives may only be a few hundred years. In this case, is thirty-six years still short?
Bai Qinghua was immersed in her own emotions at the moment, and did not notice the commotion in the crowd not far ahead. A nimble figure rushed towards her at an extremely fast speed. With her cultivation level, it would not be difficult for her to dodge even if she discovered it a little late. However, after meeting the other party's eyes that were inadvertently raised, Bai Qinghua changed her mind. She continued to stand there pretending that she could not react in time, allowing the man to knock her off balance. Soon, a group of monks in uniform clothes behind the man also chased after him. They ignored Bai Qinghua and chased after him.
"What happened to this guy? Why did he get targeted by the law enforcement team?"
Among the crowd of onlookers, someone quietly asked the person next to him.
"Haha, what could it be? If not, he was fighting in the city for no reason, or he was caught by the law enforcement team while reselling pills privately. But no matter what it was, this person is in trouble."
The person who answered the question still had his eyes fixed on the direction the man was running in, and answered in a nonchalant manner.
"Ah! Selling elixirs privately? Or in Xutian City?"
The person who asked the question just now had obviously just arrived in Xutian City not long ago and was not very familiar with the place. He was shocked when he heard the words, and his voice became much louder, attracting many people around to look at him.
The person who just answered the question was also startled by the sudden high-pitched voice beside him.
"You are sick!"
Feeling the gazes of the people around him, the man's face turned pale. He glared at the passerby who was making a fuss, cursed him, and ran away.
He dared to shout out the words "reselling elixirs" in Xutian City. He really wanted to die. After talking to such a person, he felt that he might be finished!
The passerby who was inexplicably scolded looked a little unhappy, but feeling the gazes of the people around him, he also felt that he was too rash, so he quickly shrank his body, pushed through the crowd and ran away.
Bai Qinghua, who heard the two people's words clearly, slightly raised the corners of her mouth. She said, where there is oppression, there will be resistance. Private transactions are naturally the best way to avoid the Alchemists' Union. Reaching out and touching the thing that had just been placed on her body, Bai Qinghua's mood suddenly improved.
This person was quite cautious. He even knew to leave a spiritual mark on the storage bag. This way, she wouldn't have to worry about that person not being able to find her later. However, she didn't know how far this spiritual mark could sense. She'd better not go too far, lest that person not be able to find her. Thinking of this, Bai Qinghua turned around and walked towards a remote alley.
She is really thoughtful.
This was the first thought of the man who had returned when he saw Bai Qing's painting in a secluded alley.
The man's cultivation level seemed to be in the middle stage of the Spirit Refining Stage, which was a whole level higher than Bai Qinghua's revealed cultivation level. This was also the reason why he dared to put the things on Bai Qinghua just now. How could the other party, a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator, dare to take the things from him? At most, he just gave her some benefits because she had just helped him.
Just now he was caught up by a group of people from the Xutian City Law Enforcement Team. They didn't find any elixirs or other things on him, so they had to let him go. After leaving the law enforcement team, the man found this place based on his spiritual sense, but when he met the half-smile of the woman opposite him, the man couldn't help but pause. He suspected that he might have made a mistake, but his spiritual sense confirmed again and again that the woman opposite was at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. After releasing his spiritual sense, he confirmed that there were indeed only two of them nearby.
So why does this woman look like this?
The man swallowed uncontrollably. He suspected that this woman was waiting for him here on purpose.
But why?
Isn't she afraid?
