Chapter 223 Imperial Clan's Schemes
Chapter 223 Imperial Clan's Schemes
With the assistance of the Charming Pavilion. Juliet's Dreamy House's influence gradually spread throughout the entire Entertainment Block. Not only her products didn't contain any side effects. It also lasts for a long time so it quickly became popular.
Before a huge pavilion at the Entertainment Block, dozens of people lined up patiently. Their expressions revealed delight and excitement as they received the so-called Lance Hardening Pills that Zieve synthesized from the concentrated broth of Garlic Soups.
Overlooking everything from above the highest point of the pavilion was Juliet and Zieve standing together with Adevhine. The three held smiles on their faces as they observed the commotion down below.
Though cultivators possessed strong physiques and they were rarely sick. Anyone wanted increased performance even if it was slight and Juliet's intrusion to the market, bringing with her an effective solution to that problem increased her popularity and influence.
"We really worked hard these past weeks...To think that we still managed to recover from that setback..." Zieve looked emotional, his eyes misty and the smile on his face, sweet beyond doubt.
Juliet nodded her head and replied with a light chuckle, "Everything wouldn't go so smoothly if not for your research, Zieve." She honestly praised. After Zieve found the right ratio, he started making ways on how he could make the Garlic Soup more accessible and convenient.
This led to him developing a pill that had the same benefits as their Garlic Soup. Those that worked on the fields chose the Garlic Soup since not only it bestowed benefits for the body. It also provided sustenance and staved off hunger.
Those that frequented the Entertainment Block were rich people that didn't fancy the Garlic Soup. Instead, they favored the pill and bought it in bulk, creating a surge of profits and disposable income for the Dreamy House.
Using the gathered funds, they slowly increased the number of Dreamy Houses throughout the entire Academy and after several weeks of struggle. They cemented their position within the Entertainment Block and stood alongside the Charming Pavilion with the Duterte General Merchandises behind them.
"Yeah, we both worked hard, but there's something strange going on..." Zieve said in a wary voice and Juliet turned towards him and said, "Yeah, that's right. I can't think of any reason why the Imperial Clan has been so quiet, why did they let us succeed and go this far?"
In these past weeks, the Imperial Clan remained in hibernation and never bothered the operations of the Dreamy House. This made the two suspicious since members of the Imperial Clan were known to keep grudges and never rested until they completed their retaliation.
Adevhine lightly smiled, she stood silently beside them. Keeping her silence throughout their conversation. Her eyes gleamed with expectations as it pierced through the air and landed on the certain pavilion where the Duterte General Merchandise's branch at the Entertainment Block stood.
Inside the Duterte General Merchandise's Pavilion, Rodger, Vanadis and the other employees of the Pavilion stood inside a dimly-lit room while staring at a burning cauldron. Their expressions taut and their eyebrows locked together.
Unlike their tense expressions, Vanadis and Rodger maintained smiles on their faces as the Elder standing near the cauldron flicked his wrist and rotated his cultivation base.
Swisssh~
The sound of moving water echoed out and the boiling concoction inside the cauldron floated into the air and slowly condensed into a ball. Increasing his Spiritual Energy output, those around him staggered backward, unable to fight back against his aura of dominance.
Shiiing~
At the sametime, the ball of water decreased in size until it became as small as ball and then as small as a medicinal pill. Gesturing with his finger, the Elder directed the medicinal pill inside a jade bottle and when it landed perfectly without breaking. Rodger and Vanadis revealed wide smiles on their faces.
"Great job! Great job! I applaud you for that great job!" Vanadis clapped and Rodger did the same. Seeing their boss clapping with smiles, the other employees did the same and the room was soon filled with the thunderous noise of clapping.
"It's my honor, Young Master..." The white-bearded Elder deeply bowed and slightly smiled. His eyes flashed with impeccable pride and jubilance.
"After acquiring that recipe from a secret channel, we finally managed to create our own Lance Hardening Pills!" Rodger boisterously laughed. Seeing his nemesis, the Dreamy House soar so high under his watch made him feel so humiliated and angered. Fortunately, they managed to be in cahoots with the Charming Pavilion and acquired their assistance.
Rodger swept his gaze at Juliet's former employees. "Are you sure about the effectiveness of this pill?" He said in an indifferent voice, though the Elder was older than him. When it comes to status, he was higher.
The white-bearded Elder lifted a smile on his face, clasped his hands together and said. "Of course, I'm positive about the quality of that pill, Young master. If you'd like, you can even test it right here and now..." His words sounded weird and he glanced at the female employees that Rodger brought with him.
The female employees that noticed his gaze shrunk back and huddled with each other. Their eyes reflected fear and sorrow for they knew how terrifying Rodger could become. If they could turn back time, they would never betray Juliet even if Rodger gave them a million Spirit Stones.
"Indeed, we could test the effectiveness of this pill," Rodger glanced at Vanadis and the two nodded their heads in mutual understanding. Disappearing into the darkness, Vanadis reappeared at the exit of the room as Rodger popped the pill inside his mouth.
It melted into his stomach and transformed into a fiery lava that seeped into his pores. His meridians widened and his muscles bulged. His eyes went crimson and the blood within his body boiled with desires.
A pinkish mist filled with pheromones surrounded his body and the white-bearded old man nodded his head with a gleam on excitement on his face.
"It's working! It's indeed working! That's right, I amplified the effects of the recipe and added in my twist. There should be enough ingredients there that it could last for an hour more than the Lance Hardening Pills of the Dreamy House!" He mumbled to himself.
Rodger lfited his head and felt the power coursing through his body and the desires that overwhelmed his mind. Cackling, he turned his head towards the female employees and approached them with a vicious smile on his face.
On his lower body, a mighty tent stood as the female employees embraced each other. They wanted to fight but Vanadis's aura pressured their dantian. Unable to exert any strength, screams of anguish soon reverberated in the room.
"Please, sire. I have a husband and my family is waiting for me, sir! Please spare m-" A female employee kowtowed and banged her forehead until it bled. Nevertheless, Rodger gripped her collar and pushed her on the ground. Spreading her legs open, he ripped her robe and thrust, followed by a pain-filled moan.
Consecutive sounds of flesh striking flesh reverberated and the remaining women huddled together at the corner with tears and snot decorating their fair countenance. Their knees continuously trembled and they asked for forgiveness. Particularly to the little girl that they betrayed for their own sake.
"Ahhh, I feel so refreshed. So this is the reason why those commoners are so addicted to this drug?" Rodger pushed the woman underneath him away and latter rolled on the ground like a lifeless doll. Standing up, he glanced at the other women and whispered.
"Hopefully this lot can satisfy me..." He said and this particular room inside the Duterte General Merchandise never went silent until daybreak.
