"There are a total of 135 pills in here. All of them are Earth Grade pills. You can check them as you please."
Alex then showed the two pills in his hand and said, "These 2 are my best pills yet. This is a Hundred Poisons Antidote with 40% harmony, and this is a Healing Lotus pill with 45% harmony. Please be careful with them."
He let Cai Ping take everything into her own bag. Cai Ping, however, was still in her shock and didn't manage to get out of it in time. Only after a while did she realize that she was dazed and hurriedly took out a pill tester to check the pills.
28%, 32%, 27%, 29%, 38% … 26%, 40%, and 45%.
Cai Ping reeled in her shock as she carefully tested each of the pills. In total, there were about 8 total types of pills here.
"Do you have anything else to sell?" Cai Ping asked him, but she didn't expect him to bring out anything.
"Oh, no. These are the only ones I have, unfortunately. If I had more ingredients, I might have been able to squeeze in 4 or 5 pills, but that's it. Making so many pills in 4 days took a lot of physical and mental effort"
Cai Ping suddenly stopped what she was doing and looked back at Alex. With a peculiar smile, she asked, "Umm… Daoist Yu, did I mishear, or did you just say you made all of these pills in 4 days?"
"Hmm… oh yeah. Well, I made some on Saturday night, but others I made in the last 4 days." Alex didn't mind clarifying her confusion.
Cai Ping had a really hard time believing it. She already didn't believe it was him who made the pills, but hearing him say he made them in 4 days just made it even more unbelievable.
She decided to inquire a bit. "Daoist Yu, from what I have heard of Hong Wu sect, they say you guys have to make 10 pills with 10% harmony to become an inner sect, and 20 pills with 20% harmony to become a core disciple, is that true?"
"Yes, that's true." Alex got confused. 'Why would she ask me this?'
"Then why is Daoist Yu still an outer sect disciple, if you don't mind me asking."
"Well, things are kind of complicated in the sect regarding me." Alex scratched his head with a bit of embarrassment.
"Shouldn't you be a Core disciple by now, with all of these pills you have made?" Cai Ping thought she was getting closer and closer to getting him to slip and fess up who really made the pills.
"Oh no. I am a long way from being a core disciple. To become one, We have to give away the pills to the sect for the pills to count. Also, each pill has to be from a different recipe. Since I wanted to sell my pills instead of giving it away, I still haven't been able to become a core disciple. Although I hope to become one in the near future."
Alex was quite confident in his answer. Cai Ping on the other hand got dejected that she couldn't make him tell who really made the pills.
'I can almost guarantee that he is just an errand boy for someone more important. But still, on the off chance he is a genuine golden goose, I cannot offend him.'
"Why don't we set up the contract now?" Cai Ping said as she took one of the talismans laying on the ground and wrote it will everything Alex had brought to her.
She then signed the paper with a signature using her Qi and handed it to Alex.
"By the way, Daoist Yu. We will have to use a name to represent the pills here. Do you mind if we use your real name or do you want to use some other names?"
Alex thought for a bit. 'A different name? Like a nickname huh, what should I name myself?' He couldn't think of anything to call himself. He thought of calling himself 'Alchemy God', but immediately erased the idea since that was way too pretentious and most definitely a lie.
He looked around the room hoping for inspiration. He looked at his own body as well looking for just anything that can help provide him with an idea for his name.
Suddenly, he stopped. He slowly brought up his right hand to touch his left arm. More accurately, He touched the scar on his left arm.
'A wolf's scar… a wolf. Should I call myself a wolf? No, that doesn't quite fit. Ahh… wolf… wolf'
Then, he suddenly remembered back to the wolf that gave him this wound, and he also remembered the cats that were there. The cats that he fought the wolf to protect.
He remembered the giant mother cat with its bright white fur covered in blood.
'White… White Wolf.' Alex smiled. That wasn't a bad name if he said so himself.
"White Wolf, You can use the name White Wolf for me."
Cai Ping smiled as well. "White Wolf, huh. I quite like that name. I shall refer to you as White Wolf from now on in the stage, Daoist Yu."
"By the way, Madam Cai is it okay if I come to the auction. I don't know if I can buy anything, but I just wanted to see what an auction was like."
Cai Ping laughed a little, "You are more than welcomed to be in the auction, Daoist Yu. We shall prepare a VIP room for you."
"Oh, no. That's not necessary. I can manage in a normal room as well. Please give your VIP room to the guests who can actually buy something."
Cai Ping smiled and complied. Alex took the contract and bid farewell to Cai Ping. He walked out of the auction house and reached his residence back in the sect in about half an hour.
He had made it in time for dinner, so he logged out.
