Chapter 157: Chapter 156 Emergency in the World of Martial Arts!

After spending two more days, Qu Tong finally finished making all the potions, except for the 60 Spirit Power Stabilizing Potions intended for the Palace Commander.

Having consumed too much spiritual power over successive days, Qu Tong also felt somewhat drained.

The main issue was that the competition didn’t allow her to prepare in advance, so everything had piled up at once.

Just like everyone else, once her spiritual power was completely depleted, it would take two or three days to fully recover.

What was different, however, was that no recovery potion worked for her, whether it was for physical strength or spiritual power.

Qu Tong put 80 Spirit Power Stabilizing Potions on the shelf in her shop the day before, but she opened a real-name purchase channel for them.

Her shop had many fans, high popularity, and large sales volume; it had already been upgraded to the highest level and enjoyed many unique features.

Qu Tong spent half an hour recording the names she had previously registered into the system, granting each of them the right to purchase one bottle.

Although Qu Tong had threatened to cancel the quotas of those who had caused trouble before, she ultimately granted them purchasing rights since she had made a promise.

However, Qu Tong had already blacklisted them; except for this one bottle, they would never be able to buy any potion from her in the future.

As soon as the potions were put on sale, those who followed Qu Tong’s shop rushed to purchase them, only to find they had no buying privileges.

Only those who had helped Qu Tong before, with anxious hearts, clicked to buy and to their surprise, they actually managed to buy them, bursting with excitement right away.

The few who had caused trouble felt a twinge of guilt after buying theirs, but they quickly became smug again.

They even believed that the Princess Consort had fulfilled her promise only under their pressure; they had no idea what they had lost. After all, people must be responsible for their actions.

Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao also managed to buy a bottle each, and even He Zhou borrowed money from Xu An to buy one.

Many people envied those who had managed to buy the potions, and some even posted high-price offers on Star Web to buy them from Miss Ali’s shop.

Many netizens also started to worry whether there would be any of the 50 potions left for the next day after this batch was sold out.

Despite the many voices, Qu Tong had no time to respond.

When Lan Jianghong learned of the situation, he was furious, but he refused to believe that Yuan Hewen could concoct potions using contaminated herbs.

He would rather believe that these potions were made from the last of the Moonlight Grass that Yuan Hewen had.

Lan Jianghong ordered the Alchemist Association staff to continue purchasing Moonlight Grass, and stressed that neither the military nor the Imperial Palace could relax their efforts.

His grandson was still lying in the healing chamber; he was determined to let those people know that the Alchemist Association was not to be trifled with.

Thinking of another piece of news he had just received, Lan Jianghong’s mood improved considerably.

That afternoon, as soon as Qu Tong returned to Yuelan Bay,

the butler greeted her with a smile, "Madam, you’re back. His Highness has sent someone to deliver a gift to you."

Qu Tong, having exhausted too much spiritual power, was a little slow to comprehend.

Wasn’t Si Yuting busy resisting the Insect Clan? When did he have time to send her gifts?

It wasn’t until she opened the package that Qu Tong realized that Butler Chi’s so-called gift was the snow fox fur that Si Yuting had promised her at the competition; possibly he had arranged for it to be processed ahead of time and delivered today.

She had almost forgotten about it, yet Si Yuting still remembered.

There were three pieces in total, all meticulously processed, clean, soft, and ready to use furs, each of tremendous value.

Adding it to the one that Si Yuting had given her before, there were a total of four pieces. Qu Tong decided to place one in Yuelan Bay, another on the sofa in her dormitory, and a third in Luyi Star, leaving her with one spare.

Qu Tong didn’t forget to thank Si Yuting, and considering the urgency of the war, she merely sent a message, unsurprisingly receiving no reply.

Just after Qu Tong finished sowing new fruits and vegetables in the yard, she received an urgent communication from Fei Wenxing:

"Tong! Tong! You need to get on the Star Net ASAP!"

Qu Tong’s ears nearly went deaf, and she hurriedly held the light-brain device at arm’s length.

She turned down the volume before opening the Star Net.

In just half a day, news of the Eastern Border’s battles had spread everywhere on the Star Net.

This Insect Clan invasion was more serious than any before, lasting for a week already, with countless members still pouring out of the wormhole. They had even spread to the planets guarded by the Second Army Corps and the Fifth Army.

There were even rumors that Si Yuting had suffered serious injuries and couldn’t participate in the battle anymore.

Qu Tong found it hard to believe, having seen the power of the high-grade Insect Clan, they shouldn’t be able to harm Si Yuting that much.

Just as she thought this, Qu Tong received a call from Wen You.

"Sister! This is an emergency! Do you have any Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion left?"

Qu Tong: ???

Instead of answering Wen You’s question, Qu Tong inquired about the situation: "Is the battle situation that urgent?"

Wen You snorted, "It’s just a bit more bugs than before, not a big deal."

"What’s urgent isn’t the battle, but the potions, the stubborn old fools at the Alchemist Association, they don’t care about our lives at all. They’re actually using the excuse of developing new potions to delay our Legion’s supply of the Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potion."

Wen You complained angrily.

"With the Insect Clan attacking and our high consumption, a lot of warriors are having Mental Outbursts, and without the potions, it’s very dangerous."

Qu Tong was silent, it was the Alchemist Association again!

"Good Tong, do you have any? If you do, send some over. Saving even one person is worth it. When this is all over, I’ll have our boss allocate funding for you," Wen You said earnestly, her words filled with concern for her fellow soldiers.

Qu Tong thought for a moment and replied, "I do have some, but not much, and it won’t make much of a difference. I’ll send some to you in a moment."

"Even one vial can make a big difference, Tong, I love you!" she finished, not forgetting to dramatically mua over the line.

Qu Tong shook herself, "Don’t love me; there’s no future in it."

"I know, I know, our Tong belongs to the boss," Wen You teased.

"How is His Highness?" Qu Tong didn’t pay attention to Wen You’s teasing and naturally asked about Si Yuting’s condition.

"Aside from some instability in his spiritual power, he’s not in bad shape."

Listening to Wen You’s relaxed tone, it seemed the news on the net was just malicious rumors.

Qu Tong’s progress towards becoming a wealthy single woman was still nowhere in sight.

Thinking about those cute warriors who often visited her live broadcasts, she found she couldn’t be like the Alchemist Association, ruthlessly pursuing their goals with complete disregard for the lives of the frontier warriors.

Qu Tong received the address from Wen You and found it wasn’t on Abel Star but in a nearby subsidiary star region.

Qu Tong took 3 vials of Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion out of the Space Button and sent them to Wen You.

Upon further thought, if Wen You’s squad was in such dire straits, surely many in Si Yuting’s entire Legion were experiencing Mental Outbursts, right?

Si Yuting was probably still waiting for the Alchemist Association to supply the potions, unaware that this had anything to do with her.

Qu Tong looked down at the genuine leather fur carpet she had just laid on the ground, resignedly sighed, and took out a few more vials of Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion from the space and transported them to Abel Star.
