"Youth, the pill you just gave him, is it from the Divine Medicine Valley?" The Tall Slim Man in Black asked directly as he noticed Jiang Chen looking over.
"No, I made it myself," Jiang Chen replied.
"You made it yourself? Heh, do you think we would believe that? Even an ordinary pharmacist from the Divine Medicine Valley couldn't concoct such an effective detox pill. There's no need for a young man like you to boast," the Tall Slim Man in Black said, initially taken aback but then laughing dismissively.
If Jiang Shi didn't recognize the two men, they might have treated the sudden appearance of two young people at this late hour with caution. However, since Jiang Shi knew them, it indicated that these two young men were locals, likely drawn out for some late-night excitement.
As for Jiang Chen producing a miraculous pill, while the men were surprised, they didn't find it unbelievable. After all, modern medical technology is quite advanced; developing a drug that effectively counters Snake Venom is entirely plausible. If it wasn't from the Divine Medicine Valley's Divine Medicine, then it must be a product of modern medicine. There were only these two possibilities; it couldn't be something this kid concocted himself.
Jiang Chen smiled lightly and said in a calm tone, "Gentlemen, don't you recognize me?"
"Naturally not," the Tall Slim Man in Black replied coldly, annoyed that he was wasting time chatting with a young man.
"But you just mentioned me and even said you wanted to present the Yin Ling Zhi Jing to me. Why do you suddenly not recognize me now that I'm here?" Jiang Chen said with a hint of a smile.
At his words, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief as they looked at Jiang Chen.
"You... you are Mr. Jiang?" The two men in black exclaimed almost in unison; they had never seen Jiang Chen but had only heard of him.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly and walked towards the two men in black, extending his hand.
The two men hesitated for a moment as they looked at Jiang Chen with complex expressions. After a long pause, they finally took out the Yin Ling Zhi Jing. However, they did not hand it over immediately.
"How can you prove that you are Mr. Jiang?" Although the two men were somewhat intimidated by Jiang Chen's reputation, they weren't foolish. They hadn't heard any news about Mr. Jiang for two years; encountering him today seemed too coincidental. Could he be an imposter?
Jiang Chen's calm gaze suddenly sharpened. The two men felt as if they were staring into the eyes of a deity; their bodies went weak as if walking on the edge of an abyss, trembling with fear.
"Do you believe me now?" Jiang Chen's expression softened again as he smiled gently.
The two men were visibly shaken and sweating profusely; such an intense gaze was overwhelming.
"We believe you, we believe you," they quickly replied and handed over the Yin Ling Zhi Jing to Jiang Chen.
The Yin Ling Zhi Jing was not something to be handled carelessly. The fat man in black had used specially designed gloves to retrieve it earlier; now it was placed inside a special cloth bag.
Jiang Chen casually took out the Yin Ling Zhi Jing and examined it briefly.
"The quality is average at best. This Yin Ling Zhi Jing is of no use to you anyway. However, since you've worked hard to obtain it, I won't let you suffer for your efforts. Here are two Lingqi Pills for you," Jiang Chen said as he produced two Lingqi Pills and flicked them towards the two men in black.
Upon receiving the Lingqi Pills, their expressions immediately brightened with joy. This man truly was Mr. Jiang! Even if Mr. Jiang hadn't given them anything, they wouldn't dare say much more; however, Mr. Jiang seemed quite nice and not at all as cold and bloodthirsty as rumored.
