Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: The Discovered Whale Jelly

Watching the experiment of Yu Xiaogang and Ye Hengchuan on the heavenly curtain, especially when it played the footage of the pigs screaming in the middle of the night at the end...

That commotion could be described as earth-shattering.

"Pah! Those two shameless fellows!"

Some female Spirit Masters scolded with blushing faces after seeing the scenes on the heavenly curtain.

As for the male Spirit Masters, they were much more open, watching the heavenly curtain and laughing heartily one after another.

Of course, after the laughter, everyone watched the heavenly curtain with expectant gazes, waiting for the results of Yu Xiaogang's experiment.

[The video continues...]

[A night passed quickly, but to ensure the pigs fully absorbed the medicinal effects, Yu Xiaogang specifically waited an extra day.]

[It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Yu Xiaogang and Ye Hengchuan arrived at the place where the pigs were kept together.]

[Opening the pigsty, a pungent, fishy stench wafted out, mixed with some strange odors; anyway, the people who came with them basically vomited upon smelling it.]

[Fortunately, Yu Xiaogang had anticipated all this and hired some people to come and clean up.]

[Once the cleaning was finished, Yu Xiaogang had people check the pigs that had taken the medicine one by one for any changes.]

[The Spirit Masters called by Ye Hengchuan to help were momentarily stunned when they heard Yu Xiaogang's instructions.]

[Check the changes in these pigs one by one?]

[Forgive them; as Spirit Masters, they had never done such a thing before.]

[Especially since the one telling them to do these things was Yu Xiaogang, currently a celebrity of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.]

[Although he was the Sect Master's son, his own talent was incredibly poor, even worse than this group of people.]

[How was a fellow destined for no achievements in the future qualified to command a group of Spirit Masters like them?]

[As Spirit Masters, they also had their own pride!]

[Consequently, for a moment, not a single person moved.]

[Seeing the reaction of these Spirit Masters, Yu Xiaogang sighed.]

[How could he not know what they were thinking? Indeed, anyone receiving an order from a 'trash' would develop a sense of resistance.]

[It was like his previous life; as a wealthy man, if he suddenly heard some punk ordering him to do something one day...]

[Even if it was something he could complete with a snap of his fingers, why should he listen to a punk's orders?]

[Thus, Yu Xiaogang could only turn his gaze toward Ye Hengchuan.]

[Fortunately, although he was a 'punk', he was a punk with a background!]

["Alright, all of you shut up. Just do as Xiaogang says. Xiaogang's words are my words."]

["Or rather, are you planning not to do as I say?"]

[Ye Hengchuan nodded upon seeing Yu Xiaogang's gaze and then stepped forward to speak.]

[As he spoke, an Aura of majesty without anger emanated from his body.]

[To have been a friend of the Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen back then and later a follower, Ye Hengchuan's strength was naturally extraordinary.]

[Although he hadn't stepped into the realm of a Spirit Douluo due to his talent, he had reached the Peak of a rank seventy-nine Spirit Saint.]

["Uh, Uncle Ye, you must be joking. We'll go right now, right now."]

[Shaken by Ye Hengchuan's Aura, the group of Spirit Masters immediately bowed and scraped, hurrying into the pigsty to inspect the pigs' condition.]

["Xiaogang, don't take them to heart. They're just like that—short-sighted and careless."]

[Ye Hengchuan was afraid the attitude of those people would discourage Yu Xiaogang, so he spoke words of comfort.]

["Don't worry, Uncle Ye. I wouldn't be sad or upset over such a small matter."]

[Yu Xiaogang responded with a smile after hearing Ye Hengchuan's words.]

[If an attitude that didn't even count as mockery could make him sad, then Yu Xiaogang would have long since crumbled into dust when hearing the ridicule from the Sect members.]

[The Spirit Masters' inspection of the pigs didn't last long, because very soon, they found unusual individuals among the pigs.]

["Uncle Ye, come quickly and look at these pigs. They actually broke free from their ropes!"]

["Fortunately, they were kept in individual stalls, otherwise heaven knows what kind of mess they would have made!"]

[A Spirit Master rushed in front of the two of them and said with a face full of wonder.]

["You said several pigs broke free from their ropes?"]

[Hearing this, Ye Hengchuan's eyes lit up. He stepped forward quickly and grabbed the Spirit Master's shoulder.]

["That's right. The other pigs are all tied up properly, but these few are different. There are broken ropes in their stalls; they must have broken free themselves."]

[The Spirit Master whose shoulder was grabbed didn't understand why Ye Hengchuan was so excited, but he still relayed the information he had seen.]

["Xiaogang!"]

[Ye Hengchuan looked at Yu Xiaogang with a face full of joy.]

[Yu Xiaogang's face was also filled with joy.]

[The ropes used to tie the pigs were all very sturdy; ordinary domestic pigs couldn't possibly break free from them.]

[If only one or two pigs had broken free, perhaps they weren't tied properly, but several meant something entirely different.]

[So, with excited hearts, Yu Xiaogang and Ye Hengchuan walked into the pigsty and came before the pigs that had broken free.]

[Sure enough, inside the stalls, a pig was slumped on the ground sleeping. Beside it was a rope that had snapped in two.]

[And from the break, one could tell that it was definitely snapped by brute force!]

[They checked the condition of the other pigs, and it was the same; the ropes were snapped.]

["What medicine were these few fed?"]

[Ye Hengchuan looked at the assistant nearby with a face full of joy.]

["Let me see... Number seven, about twenty-year whale jelly; Number nine, about thirty-year whale jelly; Number seventeen, about fifty-year whale jelly; Number twenty-eight, about forty-year whale jelly..."]

[After a series of information reports, without needing further detailed analysis, Ye Hengchuan already understood which medicinal ingredient possessed the effect of strengthening the body.]

["Whale jelly. I remember this thing is a special substance produced in the brains of whale-type Spirit Beasts. It's considered a relatively hard-to-obtain rare item."]

["Among aphrodisiac medicines, this thing is also considered an extremely rare treasure. Besides that, like Spirit Beasts, it's categorized into ten-year, hundred-year, thousand-year, and ten thousand year."]

["Most people only see ten-year or hundred-year whale jelly. thousand-year whale gel is the most popular among the nobility."]

["On the contrary, the even rarer ten thousand year whale jelly is not popular with the nobility because of its high age, scarcity, and excessive price, and because it has no use other than as an aphrodisiac."]

[Ye Hengchuan was indeed worthy of being the one in charge of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's apothecary; almost instantly, he recalled a wealth of information regarding whale jelly.]

[Hearing this information, Yu Xiaogang looked back at those pigs that had gained an enhanced Physique just by eating several-decade-old whale jelly.]

[If several decades could do this, then what kind of boost could hundred-year, thousand-year, or even ten thousand year whale jelly bring to his body?]
