“Sure.” Ye Lengan nodded and didn’t make things difficult for Zhong
Lingwan. “Anyway, I plan to continue looking at the other herbs. You can call someone over now.”
She was in no hurry to leave, so she didn’t mind waiting here for a while.
“Alright. Please wait a moment.” Zhong Lingwan’s attitude was now completely different. Facing Ye Lengan, she showed more respect. “I’ll call someone over right now.”
Before making the call, she carefully returned the small porcelain bottle to Ye Lengan. The Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill was too precious, and with the appraiser yet to arrive, she didn’t dare hold onto it. In case of any mishap, selling herself wouldn’t cover the loss.
Zhongyu Jiarui had snapped back to reality. When she looked at Ye Lengan, her eyes were filled with jealousy. Through gritted teeth, she said,
“Impossible. How could you have the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill? You’re just a country bumpkin who doesn’t even know what Spirit Coins are. How can you have the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill?”
While speaking, Zhongyu Jiarui’s gaze remained fixed on the small porcelain bottle in Ye Leng’an’s hand, as if she was about to snatch it any moment.
“What does this have to do with you?” Ye Lengan glanced at Zhongyu Jiarui, chuckling. “If you don’t have something, can’t others have it? Who do you think you are? Does the world revolve around you?”
Indeed, odd characters abound every year, and this year seemed particularly abundant.
“You…” How could Zhongyu Jiarui pick up on such obvious sarcasm?
Unnoticed by everyone, Nangong Xuyao was now fixedly staring at Ye Lengan. When the porcelain bottle was opened earlier, the medicinal fragrance triggered a familiar feeling. He had smelled that fragrance before, during the time he was in a daze.
During that critical moment when he was injured and almost died, though unconscious, he caught a whiff of the same medicinal fragrance. The woman’s medicine and the scent from back then were identical. Could it be that the woman in front of him had something to do with his rescue?
If it weren’t for the inappropriate timing, he would have eagerly approached her and asked if she was the one who saved him.
Zhongyu Jiarui remained oblivious to Nangong Xuyao!s unease. All her attention was on Ye Lengan, specifically on the porcelain bottle in her hand.
Despite being infuriated by Ye Lengan’s sarcastic words, the allure of the
Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill in the other’s possession couldn’t be ignored. Even within her family, such pills were scarce. If she could obtain one, her father would undoubtedly view her differently, elevating her status in the family.
So, what she desired now wasn’t that spiritual plant but the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill in Ye Leng’an’s possession. Furthermore, if she could easily produce one, did she have other precious pills or treasures?
With this in mind, Zhongyu Jiarui’s tone shifted. Looking at Ye Lengan, she maintained a lofty and even condescending tone. “Hey, bumpkin, do you know that being alone in the Hidden World with such precious pills makes you an easy target? I don’t know how many eyes are on you now.”
“Oh!” Seeing Zhongyu Jiarui’s sudden change of attitude, Ye Lengan responded with a faint smile. “Then what do you think I should do now?”
“This is the Hidden World, different from the mortal world.” Seeing Ye Lengan taking the bait, Zhongyu Jiarui continued, “Here, without a powerful backer, you’ll find it difficult to move. So, what’s crucial for you now is to find a heavyweight supporter, ensuring no one dares to covet your possessions.”
“Is that so?” Ye Lengan frowned and added, “But I don’t know many people here..
