Chapter 309 - The Heavendefying Immortal Pill It Was Not Enough to be the Finale
Their gazes shifted back and forth between Jiang Hao and the three jade bottles.
“Mr. Jiang, you can't be serious?” one of the elders asked incredulously.
In that moment, Du Feifei began to wonder if Jiang Hao was out of his mind.
Yet Jiang Hao remained utterly composed.
He had anticipated their skepticism.
The Grass-Wood Pill was, after all, extraordinarily miraculous.
“I understand your doubts, so I'm willing to provide one pill at no cost for testing,” he offered.
“Find a volunteer to take it, and you'll see for yourselves whether I speak the truth.”
The six elders were stunned into silence, their eyes eventually turning to Du Feifei.
Would she, as the family's matriarch, consent?
Du Feifei met Jiang Hao's serene gaze and gave a discreet nod.
The elders caught on immediately.
Truth be told, if Jiang Hao's claims held water, Du Feifei was quite tempted to try the pill herself.
But with uncertainty lingering, she wasn't about to gamble with her life.
Soon after, a staff member brought forth a cleaning lady. The forty-year-old, hearing there was money to be made, scurried over with enthusiasm.
She was asked to remove her makeup right there and then. Jiang Hao carefully extracted a pill from one of the bottles.
A distinctive, herbal fragrance instantly permeated the appraisal room, captivating everyone present.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the cleaning lady ingested the Grass-Wood Pill.
As soon as the pill touched her tongue, it transformed into a unique spiritual essence that swiftly assimilated into her system.
Before the astonished onlookers, the wrinkles on the cleaning lady's face began to fade at a visibly rapid pace.
Her once parched and lackluster complexion became supple and radiant within moments.
The transformation left everyone in the room agape.
They collectively gasped in amazement.
The once weary, middle-aged cleaning lady looked as though she had regained the youthful visage of a woman in her mid-twenties.
Her skin had taken on the delicate, luminous quality of a young girl's.
Seeing their astounded faces, Jiang Hao couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
“Ladies and gentlemen, feel free to have this young lady undergo a cellular age assessment and a skin analysis,” he suggested confidently.
“Once the results are in, we can continue our discussion.”
Snapped out of their stupor by Jiang Hao's proposal, they quickly escorted the cleaning lady away for testing.
At that moment, everyone's eyes were glued to the three medicinal items on the table, their excitement palpable, as they all but yearned to claim them as their own.
Du Feifei's curiosity about Jiang Hao grew even more intense.
Yet, Jiang Hao seemed utterly indifferent.
“Let's wait for the appraisal results before we discuss the Grass and Vegetation Pill,” he said.
“The appraisal might take a while, though, so let me present the most treasured piece now!”
Jiang Hao's announcement took everyone by surprise.
Could it be that even an Immortal Pill wasn't the showstopper?
What sort of divine artifact could it be?
For them, the Grass Wood Pill was indeed the stuff of legends, an immortal pill!
In that moment, they were utterly captivated by the enigmatic Jiang Hao.
As all eyes once again focused on Jiang Hao, he reached into his pocket amid a sea of bewildered expressions and pulled out a paper-wrapped object.
A collective sigh of relief washed over the crowd.
“You even know how to wrap things up nicely!”
But when Jiang Hao carefully unfolded the paper and set its contents on the table, everyone was left speechless in amazement.
A luminous cup, about ten centimeters in diameter and height, shaped like a bowl and crafted from a single piece of translucent, emerald-green material with an exquisitely fine texture, stood before them all.
