The Indomitable Master of Elixirs
chapter-433

The giant dragon eyed that tiny ball of light with a blank expression.

Ji Fengyan’s mouth twitched. With an exhale, she said, “This is a spiritual soul. It is your payment.”

“What is a spiritual soul?” The giant dragon appeared impatient. “I don’t need such a thing. If this is your so-called compensation, I refuse.”

“…” What a difficult dragon!

Ji Fengyan suppressed her shock. “Then what kind of payment are you looking for? Vital energy?”

“What are you talking about?” Ji Fengyan’s words increasingly irritated the giant dragon. He interrupted her and raised a massive front paw, pinching two sharp claws together.

“Treasures, I want treasures. Gold, precious jewels. Do you understand?” The mighty beast narrowed its eyes and harrumphed.

“…” Ji Fengyan was completely dumbstruck.

She had never met such a “pragmatic” dragon.

Or was it that dragons from the other world were all this strange?

Her master’s five-clawed golden dragon was the standard dragon god. Full of immortal aura and majestic, it instantly commanded respect. But this dragon before her…

She really didn’t want to make comparisons.

Noticing that Ji Fengyan had yet to make a move. The giant dragon lost all patience.

“Human, are you going back on your word?”

Ji Fengyan looked at the dragon’s ferocious expression. She would probably die then and there if she didn’t give in to its demands.

As such, Ji Fengyan jumped off the tree and surveyed the scorched earth with a lingering fear.

“Please wait,” She said to the dragon.

The giant dragon huffed contemptuously.

Ji Fengyan, “…” She was itching to kill it, but how?

Ji Fengyan patiently scooped up a still-warm rock from the blackened ground and turned it into gold…

The dragon took in Ji Fengyan’s every move, mindful of the cunning of humans. Now that it had done the job, it was wary of Ji Fengyan reneging on her promise.

But…

The giant dragon watched as that suspicious human fiddled with a rock for a while. When she turned around…

A glittering gold piece was presented before the dragon’s eyes!

Its eyes nearly popped out!

“Is this enough?” Ji Fengyan placed the large gold piece in front of the dragon’s feet.

The huge beast looked between the gold and Ji Fengyan. Full of qualms, it scratched the gold lightly with its claws.

The head-sized piece of gold split into half, revealing a dazzling golden center.

Fire danced within the dragon’s eyes.

Without hesitation, the giant dragon swallowed that piece of gold.

“…” Ji Fengyan now understood how anything was possible when one had lived long enough to see it.

Just as Ji Fengyan was prepared to let the dragon take its leave.

It…

“Not enough! Far from enough. That was… only enough for the killing of one demon.” The giant dragon put on a distressed expression and surveyed the ashes of all those demons it had burnt. It continued, “I need more, more gold.”

The corners of Ji Fengyan’s mouth twitched.

She could tell this was obviously a greedy, money-grubbing dragon!

“There’s no more. I don’t have any strength left to make more gold.” Ji Fengyan spread out her hands. She had exerted quite a lot of energy and didn’t have much vital energy left to turn more stones into gold.

But that giant dragon was unwilling to let go of such a great opportunity. It insisted. “No problem. I can wait!”
