Chapter 331: Chapter 321 Full to the Brim

As Ning Shenji’s voice faded, Long Chen deliberately did not respond but instead pondered, appearing hesitant and indecisive.

Such behavior only deepened Ning Shenji’s belief in the value of the Elixir Formula, absolutely genuine.

"Mr. Long, you are busy, and we are too. We hope Mr. Long can hasten."

Ning Shenji said.

"Very well, I’ll sign."

Long Chen’s expression was serious.

"Here is the contract."

Li Yuechan handed over the contract.

"Can’t I take it myself? It’s all your doing." Long Chen scolded, "You are just like those fools, all greedy for money. I even suspect you’re in cahoots with them."

"I... I’m not."

Li Yuechan was panicked.

Wu De and Ning Shenji maintained their composure, but they were indeed tense for a moment.

If Li Yuechan were exposed at this moment, the cooperation would definitely not be able to continue.

Immediately, Ning Shenji hastily changed the subject: "Mr. Long, let’s not discuss others now, cooperation is important."

"Alright."

Long Chen did not say more.

Ten minutes later, the contract was signed.

Ning Shenji stretched out his hand, smiling, "Can you give me the Elixir Formula now?"

"In the pugilist world, the rule is money exchanged when the product is received."

"Mr. Long, I thought the rule in the pugilist world was payment upon delivery." Ning Shenji said.

Long Chen smiled and replied, "Don’t forget where we are, here, my rule is money exchanged when the product is received."

"Okay."

Although Ning Shenji was not pleased, he had no other option.

His trip to Qianzhou was for the Elixir Formula.

Now, just one step away from obtaining the Elixir Formula, Ning Shenji wouldn’t give up over such a minor issue.

Thus, Ning Shenji quickly transferred the payment, using a card that was globally limited without any restrictions.

After receiving the money, Long Chen then handed over the Elixir Formula to Ning Shenji.

Ning Shenji solemnly received the Elixir Formula, saying, "Thank you, we will take our leave now."

"Wait a moment." Long Chen spoke, "Ning Shenji, a friendly reminder, though you have obtained the Elixir Formula, deciphering its secrets and successfully concocting the elixir might be very difficult. Do you need some guidance? I really enjoy giving advice."

"No need for your concern." Ning Shenji refused, "Our Heavenly God Temple has many talented individuals who can certainly handle it."

"I hope so. Then please go slowly, gentlemen."

Long Chen said indifferently.

"Alright."

Ning Shenji stepped out and walked away.

Wu De then cast a meaningful glance at Li Yuechan before catching up with Ning Shenji.

Once it was confirmed that the three were far away, a burst of laughter erupted in the meeting room.

"These three fools, haha, it kills me. They really thought they got the Elixir Formula."

"Two billion, really willing to spend the big bucks."

"Adorably stupid, calling it Heavenly God Temple, more like Heavenly Dumb Temple!"

The laughter continued around the room.

Long Chen couldn’t help but chuckle as well, this time, they had made a killing.

After a moment of thought, Long Chen stood up, signaled for everyone to calm down, and smiled, "Thanks to everyone for playing their part well in this act. Those who came to the meeting today will each receive a reward of one hundred thousand, and each brother and sister under our flag will get ten thousand, to be distributed today."

"Brother Long is invincible."

"Boss is so domineering."

"Alright, alright, dismiss," Long Chen waved his hand.

After these executives left, Long Chen turned to Xia Ling and said, "They’ll figure out soon that there’s something wrong with the Elixir Formula. When that happens, it’ll be our real battle time with the Heavenly God Temple. We should have enough time to prepare before then. During this period, try to investigate the Heavenly God Temple; we need a proper understanding of them."

"Sure, leave it to me," Xia Ling said.

"Good."

Long Chen nodded, then said, "Tomorrow, I’ll be leaving Qianzhou to go somewhere to deal with some issues. Remember to continue your cultivation every day. In the future, things like groups and money will be useless to us; only cultivation is the capital we need to survive. I hope you understand that."

"Husband, where are you headed?"

Li Yuechan asked quickly, "You’re not going to disappear suddenly again, are you?"

"No," Long Chen smiled. "Don’t worry, I’ll contact you every day."

"That’s good," Li Yuechan breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon, Li Yuechan suddenly reacted, "You haven’t said where you are going yet."

Long Chen slightly closed his eyes, and after a moment, said softly, "I have some knots to untie at Dragon Palace. You may not know about Dragon Palace, but it is where my mentor resides. But before going to Dragon Palace, I need to make a trip to Imperial City, so this journey won’t be brief."

"I see, just be careful then. If something happens, tell us right away. Although our cultivation isn’t as strong as yours, we are not weak, and we can definitely help."

Li Yuechan said seriously.

"Alright, you guys get busy then, I’m going home to rest a bit," Long Chen stretched lazily, wanting to go home and sleep.

"Tsk tsk, you and Churan were up all night yesterday, and Churan didn’t even come to work today, you aren’t thinking of going home and continuing to bother that poor girl, are you?"

Xia Ling looked at Long Chen teasingly.

"Well, it depends on the mood."

Long Chen grinned mischievously.

"Jerk," Xia Ling rolled her eyes fiercely at Long Chen and said, "Can’t you spread the love evenly? You’re too biased, it’s annoying."

"Indeed annoying," Li Yuechan agreed.

"Xuanyuan Yu’er is also at home, right? Brother-in-law, you’re not rushing home to devour Yu’er, are you? I heard from her last night that she hasn’t been with you yet..."

"Stop, stop, you’re getting more ridiculous," Long Chen cut off Li Yuexin’s words, then quickly left.

After Long Chen departed, Li Yuechan asked Xia Ling, "Sister Xia, that document from D-company, have you brought it over to me yet?"

Xia Ling paused, looking at Li Yuechan with a hint of suspicion, and said, "Yuechan, you’ve asked me about it four times today. I told you I put it on your desk. Why do you keep asking? Is something wrong? Didn’t you get enough rest?"

"No... it’s not that." Li Yuechan said bitterly, "Recently, I don’t know what’s happening, but my memory has been terrible. I keep forgetting important things, even though I know I really need to remember them. It wasn’t like this before."

"Could it be a health issue? Yuechan, why don’t you take some time to get checked out," Xia Ling said seriously. "Memory loss like this isn’t a good sign; you need to pay attention to it."

"We have a Divine Doctor at home, so I’ll ask him tonight," Li Yuechan smiled. "It’s nothing serious, let’s all start getting busy. First, let’s distribute the rewards Long Chen promised."

...

Outside, Long Chen walked out of the building just in time to see Ning Shenji and others from Heavenly God Temple driving away.
