Chapter 323: Benefits of Victory (1)

“What do you have in mind, Xiaoxiao?” Yan Yu asked in curiosity. They had heard about the wager between Tang Nazhi and Shangguan Xiao, and they had known about Shangguan Xiao’s schemes.

Shen Yanxiao smiled and said, “I don’t intend to do anything. The best way to deal with someone like him is to treat him as something insignificant, like the air.”

Shangguan Xiao usually acted arrogantly, and he also looked down on other people because of his so-called talents in herbalism. If Shen Yanxiao moved as they had wagered and told Shangguan Xiao to leave the Herbalist Division, he would feel that he was very unlucky to have lost in the competition and how things were unjust for him.

Instead, it would be better to forget about that incident and ignore it altogether.

For some people, they would take more offense with a dismissal attitude than an outright fist-in-the-face action.

“That’s a good idea. I think he must be waiting for you to settle the debt with him. If you were to ignore him, it would make him feel ridiculous for worrying about that.” Qi Xia nodded in agreement.

Then they tossed Shangguan Xiao to the back of their minds and changed the subject to the prize of the competition.

After all, that was Shen Yanxiao’s real objective.

“Well, rumor has it that the Saint Laurent Academy’s medicine storage room is comparable to the Imperial Family’s. As long as it is a medicinal ingredient that can be found within the Longxuan Empire, it would most certainly be inside that room.” Qi Xia had managed to get some information from his vast network. “Based on the list that you had given me, most of the ingredients that you need are inside that storage room. However, the list is too long. Even if you managed to win every competition for three years, you won’t be able to collect them all.”

If she were to take one medicinal ingredient per month, she could only take twelve ingredients per year. Even if she won it for three years straight, that would only amount to thirty-six types of ingredients. However, she had at least fifty to sixty rare ingredients on her list.

Shen Yanxiao touched her chin as her lips blossomed into an evil smirk.

“Who would use such a stupid method? It would probably take me two trips to get a clear understanding of that place. After that, I could take whatever I wish. Who could stop me then?”

As soon as Shen Yanxiao said that, the four of them immediately came back to their senses.

The little kid before them was a bona fide thief goddess. All she needed to know was the exact location and deployment of the medicine storage room and the solution for the magical arrays in that room. After that, she would be able to take any medicinal ingredients from that room, and it would be as easy as reaching for something in her bag.

“Well, yes, that is much more convenient. However, the magical arrays in the medicine storage room are not that simple to solve. Qi Xia should be able to lend a hand in that aspect, though,” Yang Xi said.

Shen Yanxiao looked at Qi Xia as he fluttered his eyes, with pure innocence, at her.

“Qi Xia’s talent in magic is not worse than your talent in herbalism. Furthermore, he had done his research on magical arrays.” Yang Xi looked at Qi Xia, who pretended to be cute as he silently shifted his head to the side.

“For real?” Shen Yanxiao stared at that profiteer. She had seen some of his strength during the class allocation test. Even though he appeared to be slightly black-hearted, she knew what he was somewhat powerful.

“Why don’t you take a guess?” Qi Xia asked with a sweet smile.

Oh shit, she had the sudden urge to slap him! The corner of her lips twitched.

In contrast, Qi Xia felt great as he gazed at the little kid who looked as though she was about to explode.
