Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 765 Something Is Wrong With The Pill
"Mark my words: I don't have any problems with money, and I don't want you to pay me either. I just want you to give me a reasonable explanation for my spirit-manipulated beast's death. If you can't, then I will not hesitate to destroy the Magical Beast House!" the man threatened. It seemed that he was not going to let the Magical Beast House go this time.
"Hey, watch it! You're going too far! When my sister comes back, I'm sure that she will give you a decent explanation about this fiasco. But if you dare lay your hands on the Magical Beast House, then I will not let you go so easily!" Juey spat and glared at the man angrily.
"Oh, I'm so scared!" the man mocked with feigned terror. "Oh, look, everybody! The daughter of the Xiao Clan Chief is threatening us. We are the victims here. How shameless of the Xiao Clan to do such a thing!" As he finished his words, he pretended to lie weakly on the floor, as if he was a helpless old bloke.
The crowd saw this and immediately pointed at Juey with contempt.
"Miss Juey, please get a hold of yourself. Don't cause any more ruckus. I think it's best if you should go back first," said Willie as he broke out in a cold sweat.
"I..." Juey bit her pink lips as she wanted to object to his suggestion.
"Don't keep us waiting! Give us an explanation now, or we will have to take action,” the man insisted
"Master Harry, are you able to find the cause?" Willie asked as he turned to look at Harry and the other beast curers of the Xiao Clan.
At this moment, Harry walked up to Willie and whispered in his ear, "Maybe it's true that there is something wrong with the Ethereal Spirit Pill that we sold. But only the Chief, the young master, and Miss Mary know the formula of the pill. If you want to know if there's anything wrong with it, then you have to wait until Miss Mary comes back."
Crafted by the Xiao Clan's ancestors, the Ethereal Spirit Pill's formula was kept a secret. With this, it was said that only a few people knew about it—Raef, the Xiao Clan Chief, Travis, the clan's young master, and Mary, Raef's daughter. Although Harry was regarded as the best beast curer of the Magical Beast House, he still did not know all the contents of the secret formula.
"What should we do now?" At this moment, Willie's heart was already burning anxiously. If this continued, then there was a high chance that the people would wreck the Magical Beast House. To add salt to the wound, it was not far off that the Magical Beast House would be the most hated house in the whole Barren City.
"I thought the Xiao Clan was a righteous clan! I could never be more wrong in my entire life! It turns out that you murdered my spirit-manipulated beast by selling the deadly poison pill,” the man continued.
"You're going too far with your accusations!" Juey shouted angrily.
"And? So what? Miss Juey, if you can, then investigate and find out why my spirit-manipulated beast died a tragic death. Otherwise, don't yell at me! But if you want to find a man, then you can freely choose any one of us. If you want, you may even choose all," the man said with a lustful smile as he stared at her voluptuous figure.
"How fucking dare you!" Juey's face turned red because of fury. However, she also knew that she couldn't do anything to avoid making things worse.
On the other hand, Rocky, who was standing not far away, couldn't help but glare at the three men after seeing their smug faces. Then, as silently as he could, he walked behind Juey and whispered in her ear, "Miss Juey, I know that you want to protect the Magical Beast House's brand, and I can help you with that. If you want my help, then cooperate with me."
Hearing this, Juey turned around and found who it was. She was stunned for a while.
At this point, Rocky walked up to the man and said with a smile, "It's easy to tell the cause of your spirit-manipulated beast's death. In fact, we don't need the Xiao Clan’s Beast Curing Skill to tell this. I'm sure that Miss Juey will have the answer in no time. Am I right, Miss Juey?"
Rocky's little speech caught the attention of Willie, Harry, and the other beast curers of the Xiao Clan,
"What do you think you're doing? Get down now!" Willie shouted in a deep voice as he scowled at Rocky.
Meanwhile, Rocky turned to look at Juey and winked at her. On the other hand, she hesitated for a moment after seeing what he just did. However, she wanted to push through and tried her best to be cooperative with his plan. Smiling proudly, she said, "Yes, it's just a small problem. I don't need to use the Xiao Clan's Beast Curing Skill at all. I can easily tell how your beast died.”
Sure enough, her words aroused a great turmoil among the guests.
Meanwhile, Willie could not help but sweat heavily upon hearing that. He could not help but think, 'Oh gosh. We might lose the Magical Beast House's brand for sure this time.’
"Humph! Really? You can find out the reason easily? You are making me laugh!" the man sneered as he found Juey's claims preposterous.
"Does that mean that you don't believe Miss Juey? In that case, let's make a bet. If Miss Juey finds out the reason, then you must kneel down and kowtow to apologize to her. What do you say?" proposed Rocky, raising his eyebrows.
"But what if she fails to find the cause?" the man inquired confidently.
"Then you can demolish the Magical Beast House as you like," replied Rocky with a poker face. Upon hearing what Rocky had said, Willie went berserk. He wondered how the young man was so bold as to take advantage of the Magical Beast House to make trouble!
"Who do you think you are? I want to hear it from Miss Juey herself.” The man looked at Juey intently, as if challenging her to do what he was asking of her. Apparently, he didn't believe a single word from Rocky's mouth as he found him to be unreliable.
At the same time, Juey turned to look at Rocky too. Seeing that he nodded to her, she began to say subconsciously, "Anyway, if I don't do anything, you will also ruin the Magical Beast House. Since that is the case, then I'd rather take the chance.”
"Don’t blame me for not giving you a chance, Miss Juey. Now, I'll give you half an hour. If within that time, you are able to come up with the cause why my spirit-manipulated beast died and that it has nothing to do with the Ethereal Spirit Pill that the Magical Beast House sold, then I will be convinced. If you can't, then you know the consequences,” the man said confidently with a wicked smile.
"I believe that Miss Juey doesn't need half an hour to do the task at hand,” Rocky said and turned to look at Juey. "Miss Juey, you are very familiar with the Ethereal Spirit Pill, correct? Check this pill and see if there's anything wrong.”
Afterwards, Juey did as what Rocky had instructed her to do. "Willie, give me the remaining Ethereal Spirit Pill," she ordered.
Hearing her command, Willie went blank for a moment. Thinking that it might be the only way to save the situation, he obeyed her order. He thought, “Miss Juey might still have a chance if she can buy time until Miss Mary returns.’ However, naturally, he didn't expect that Juey could really find the reason.
After Juey took the pill, she placed it in front of Rocky. After smelling the pill, he moved closer to her and said, "Miss Juey, it seems that there's something wrong with the pill." After saying what he had observed, he again winked at her.
After making eye contact with Rocky, she exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Yes! Something is definitely wrong with the pill. And this is a big problem!"
