If youpan Hu knew what Lin Yi was thinking, he'd probably puke blood. He'd only promised two portions to shut Lin Yi up so that he'd stop when he'd gotten the advantage and finish the deal as soon as possible-it wasn't that the materials were worthless!
Of course, it's not valuable because of what it's being compared to. In the eyes of the Hidden House of you, the materials for refining third-grade pills are not as valuable as the second-grade cauldrons, because the materials for third-grade pills are useless. Even the sky elixir sect has a mountain of them!
Every year, a lot of herbs could be planted in the herb garden. Unless it was a very rare and heaven-defying spirit herb, the materials for ordinary third-grade pills could still be collected in large quantities. Of course, this depended on who they were compared to. If they were compared to ordinary ancient sects and families, these ordinary herbs were still very valuable.
