There's a saying that sums it up perfectly: what we call trash is just treasure in the wrong place.

If Xiang Wan wants to be a treasure hunter, she naturally needs a keen eye for discovery.

Once a suitable candidate is identified, An Yi and his team are instructed to have their subordinates conduct a thorough investigation. Sometimes, what moves people isn't necessarily the generous offer, but rather the compelling reason behind it.

While Tu Hongye was participating in the competition, Xiang Wan learned more about the recent situations of Chen Beiming and Yang Sheng.

These two are considered heavyweight opponents, so naturally they won't be going into battle right now.

It is said that during Shen Beiming's time in the capital, he took a fancy to a girl from Qingshuimen and pursued her relentlessly every day, using every means possible.

Those who enter the Qingshui Sect are all women of unwavering will; how could they be swayed by sweet words? In terms of strength and ranking, the Qingshui Sect is not afraid of the Pingyang Sect.

The girls were indifferent to Shen Beiming, which infuriated him. With his reputation and power, no girl had ever dared to refuse him before; this was truly an unprecedented situation.

That girl wasn't exactly a stunning beauty. But people are sometimes just like that—the more they're rejected, the more they want her. It wasn't that no one noticed Shen Beiming's secret designs on that girl. It was just that, in the capital, under the emperor's nose, no one believed he would disregard his reputation and do something sordid.

But that's exactly what Shen Beiming did. In his mind, once the deed was done, the girl would have no choice but to submit to him, so why would she report him?

In a secluded courtyard, Shen Beiming reached out his wicked hand towards the girl, while Xiang Wan watched from the roof beam.

Taking advantage of the fact that all the key figures were at the competition venue, Shen Beiming attempted to do something improper, but Xiang Wan would not allow him to do so.

A melodious mermaid song filled the air as Xiang Wan sprinkled a handful of powder, instantly rendering Shen Beiming's "troublesome nature" unable to stand for the rest of his life. Then, masked, she jumped out of the window, leaving the girl with a vague, ambiguous silhouette.

Doing good deeds anonymously is her consistent style of saving lives.

Moreover, she particularly enjoys watching infighting among family members.

A mischievous smugness welled up inside her, but Xiang Wan quickly swatted it away. Achieving the best results with minimal cost, different paths leading to the same goal—what's unacceptable about that?
