Once Acharon heard Vaan\'s confirmation, his eyes widened with disbelief. He couldn\'t believe what he was hearing.

Every Rank 3 Body Refiner and above dreamed of getting their hands on a single Rank 4 Body Reformation Pill. However, not only did Vaan have one, but he was actually selling it.

\'I can\'t believe I\'m the first to hear this! Did such an opportunity really just fall into my lap?!\' Acharon wanted to scream with joy.

However, Acharon knew he still had to maintain his image, lest he scared the opportunity away.

Wouldn\'t it be most tragic if such an opportunity slipped through his fingers?

"Ahem," Acharon cleared his throat and looked seemingly calm before suggesting, "How about I buy it off, Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin? You may not know this, but my Evron family is quite wealthy. If you want to sell it to my family, we definitely won\'t let you suffer a loss."

"Hmm…really?" Vaan appeared to hesitate before mentioning, "I think I should also say this, but I am not interested in merely mana stones, Senior Martial Brother Acharon."

"I am more interested in rare herbs and ores or heavenly elixirs. You know, the miraculous yet natural stuff that is hard to find between heaven and earth and can be used to augment our physique and improve our training."

"I\'m not sure if Senior Martial Brother Acharon\'s family has a lot of this stuff?" Vaan asked carefully.

Acharon quickly smiled after realizing Vaan\'s intention.

Compared to consuming the Rank 4 Body Reformation Pill to promote his strength quickly, Vaan preferred the equivalent value in alternative cultivation resources. A warrior would only make the same choice as Vaan if he were broke, completely confident in his martial talent, or both.

The amount of cultivation resources in equivalent value would definitely help one advance further in cultivation than a single Rank 4 Body Reformation Pill. The only disadvantages were the time it would take to achieve and the risk of bottlenecks.

A bottleneck with no hope of ever overcoming was equivalent to reaching the end of one\'s martial road. As such, heaven-defying pills capable of promoting one\'s cultivation were so desirable to warriors with poor talent.

But to a true genius, heaven-defying pills were not necessarily a good thing.

After all, if one had to rely on external help to overcome every trial, one would not be able to advance very far in their cultivation, especially when external help became ineffective.

"Hahaha! I\'m glad you asked me, Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin!" Acharon laughed heartily and patted his chest. "You\'re looking in the place. Although my Evron family isn\'t one of the top ten families in the empire, we are quite close."

"We definitely have plenty of this good stuff stored away in our treasury for the talented future generations of our family," Acharon confidently claimed.

"Haiz… the treasury of a big, wealthy family…" Vaan sighed emotionally before seemingly muttering to himself, "I wonder when a poor person like me will have the eye-opening experience of seeing one…?"

"If you want, today can be that lucky day, Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin!" Acharon\'s eyes beamed before he excitedly said, "It will also be more convenient to let you pick what you like in exchange for your Rank 4 Body Reformation Pill if you could see what our treasury has."

"How about it? Do you want to return home with me? As long as I get my father\'s permission, I can show you around," Acharon promised expectantly.

"This…doesn\'t seem appropriate, right? After all, I\'m just an outsider… How could I look into the private collection of your noble family, Senior Martial Brother Acharon?" Vaan asked doubtfully.

Acharon immediately looked stern and said, "Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin, I will get mad if you speak like that, okay? What outsider? If you are willing to sell your Rank 4 Body Reformation Pill to our Evron family, then you are a friend. How can the friend of our Evron family be an outsider?"

"This… Alright, if you insist," Vaan eventually agreed.

"Awesome!" Acharon exclaimed with joy before asking, "Shall we go now?"

"About that…" Vaan reluctantly glanced at the endless books in the Martial Arts Repository and said, "I haven\'t read enough today."

"Ah… Is that so? Haha… No rush, no rush… A genius like Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin ought to read more and learn more," Acharon replied with a smile.

Although Acharon was slightly disappointed, he didn\'t want to displease Vaan and risk the latter changing his mind.

"Take this, Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin," Acharon warmly handed a white crystal token with a unique Evron family crest to Vaan and said, "This is my identity token. If you show this to the Evron family guards and tell them you are my friend, they will let you inside our estate."

"I will go back first and seek my father\'s permission. You can visit our Evron family\'s estate whenever you finish your business and feel like coming over, alright?"

"Don\'t worry, Senior Martial Brother Acharon. I won\'t make you wait too long. I should be done with today\'s reading by dinner time," Vaan assured with a smile before promising, "I\'ll visit the Evron family\'s estate then."

"Hahaha, good! In that case, we\'ll prepare a warm reception and await your visit, Junior Martial Brother Vanderlin!" Acharon laughed heartily before adding, "You might be unfamiliar with the way to my home, so I will leave one of my men here to escort you later."

"That is fine with you, right?" Acharon checked.

"Thank you, Senior Martial Brother Acharon," Vaan confirmed.

Shortly after, Acharon immediately instructed one of his personal bodyguards, a ninety-year-old High-level Rank 4 Body Refiner, to stay back, "Sir Terach, please protect my friend and make sure no one bothers his precious reading time."

"Understood, Young Master," Terach obeyed as his eyes flickered with understanding.

Although it seemed like Acharon made the decision because he was concerned for Vaan\'s safety and quiet reading time, it was actually to keep other faction members from approaching Vaan.

Moments later, Acharon left with his remaining men.
