‘Why would he have such a precious pill?’
‘Could he be an incomparably noble alchemist? But how could such a young, profound alchemist exist in the world?’
Khloe Yggdrasill looked at Alex Rockefeller. “You… Why do you have such a pill?” she asked.
“Is this pill enough to buy Dory’s freedom?” Alex Rockefeller asked.
“You… You want to use this pill to purchase Dory’s freedom?” Khloe asked.
“What’s the matter? Do you think it’s too little?” Alex asked.
“…”
How could it be too little? This was a limit-breaking pill!
Never mind Dory, it was more than enough to buy Khloe off too. Khloe didn’t even look at Dory. She immediately nodded. “Alright. Dory is yours.”
Alex waved his hand. “In that case, leave. Without my permission as the owner, don’t ever step into my house.”
Khloe wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.
However, her mind was focused entirely on the limit-breaking pill in her hand. This was a significant matter. She needed to return and inform her grandfather about it right away… Khloe looked deeply at Alex. In the end, she didn’t say anything. She turned around and departed from the house.
Long after Khloe had left, Dory finally recovered from the shock.
“Did… Did you really just buy me with a limit-breaking pill?” Dory asked.
“I didn’t buy you. I bought your freedom!” Alex corrected. “I can’t have a meal you cooked me for free, can I? Though I haven’t even taken more than a few bites, and before a few flies interrupt the meal… Well, are there any ingredients left? If there are, could you cook some more food?” Alex said.
Dory still felt a little fazed. After a long while, she finally jumped to her feet and went into the kitchen to cook.
Alex frowned while he thought for a moment. Khloe’s words reminded him of something.
“How could it have come from an ordinary person?”
Everyone was shocked.
Shawn held the pill in his hand and looked at it. “Although I’ve never consumed a limit-breaking pill, this looks exactly like the ones I’ve seen in ancient records. It’s priceless, priceless! Khloe, well done. You’ve accomplished quite a lot this time. I will hand over the stores in Freshwater Street to you as well.”
Khloe was overjoyed when she heard this. “Thank you, Grandpa!”
“Dad, not only does that young man have a large number of major rejuvenation pills, but he’s even in possession of such a godly medicine like the limit-breaking pill. Where do you think he’s from?” Dylan asked.
“Could he be in possession of a treasure left behind by some expert elder?” Lauren asked.
As soon as Lauren said this, everyone’s eyes turned red.
“I’ll go and capture that young man immediately,” Kavan said.
