Alex was speechless for a moment. What was he to do here?
"Is this what your second trade is?" the Dragon Emperor asked. "I can't accept that. I already know of the mushrooms. There's nothing for me to gain here."
Alex still didn't know what to say. His first trade was supposed to be the recipes that could help the Emperor make better pills altogether. His second trade was to be the mushrooms.
The third one he had planned on was the Immortal pill-forming technique he no longer used, and finally, in the end, he would hand over the Pill Splitting Qi technique. Since so many of his own alchemists already had it, he didn't think it was such a bad idea to hand it over.
It was incredibly difficult to learn anyway, with complexities that would take a regular saint decades to learn.
Still, now he was stuck on a problem and couldn't help but wonder if the next two were going to become the same.
