Suddenly, Su Mian's pupils dilated as he stared at Mingyue in disbelief. All the gunpowder bullets he had fired had come to a complete stop in front of Mingyue.

Undeterred, Su Mian fired several more shots at Mingyue until the magazine ran out of gunpowder.

Without exception, all the gunpowder shells stopped in front of Mingyue, suspended in mid-air. Su Mian gripped the flintlock pistol tightly in his hand, so tightly that he almost crushed it.

"you--"

"Third Prince, here you go."

With a wave of her hand, Mingyue reversed the direction of the gunpowder bullets. Su Mian froze, and Jiang Jian quickly pulled Su Mian back, but one or two gunpowder bullets still hit Su Mian's legs.

Su Mian was in so much pain that his face turned pale. Jiang Jian never expected that Su Mian would also be defeated by Mingyue. This person's internal strength was terrifying!

What do you want?

If we can't win, we can only negotiate.

Mingyue waved her hand, looking at everyone with pity. "If I said I was the embodiment of a mission, would you believe me?"

Jiang Jian: ...

In a scene that was almost at its most heated, how could you still be joking?!

Jiang Jian pursed his lips and remained silent.

"See, I knew you wouldn't believe me." Mingyue smiled at the elderly man, revealing her teeth. "Sir, please bring me a glass of water. I'm so thirsty."

The elderly man looked at Jiang Jian, who nodded. Only then did the elderly man, with trembling body, go to pour water.

A glass of water moistened her throat, and Mingyue said lazily, "I'm here to burn through your inventory; you can't control this stuff."

The world has its own rules of evolution, and forcing growth will do no good to the world.

"No way, we can share the apartment. You can take 50% of this... no, 80% is fine with you, how about that?"

Jiang Jian endured the pain; the power of the musket was something that even a doctor like him longed for, not to mention that once such a thing was invented, it would be priceless.

They gave away 80% of the price, and the other party gave up everything, so they got a huge advantage.

"I don't like it."

As if the moon was too calm and the wind too light, Jiang Jian disregarded Su Mian, who was in so much pain that she had fainted, and hurriedly said, "Ninety percent, it can't be any lower. It won't do you any harm, will it?"

The inventory cannot be destroyed. This product is difficult to manufacture, and often only three out of ten batches are ever in stock.

"Since you've sincerely invited me."

Jiang Jian's eyes lit up. Was she going to agree? Jiang Jian waited expectantly for Mingyue to say what she would say next.

"Then I'll sincerely destroy it."

What?

Jiang Jian didn't even have time to react to what Mingyue said before he saw Mingyue gracefully scaling the rooftops and heading straight towards the warehouse.

Jiang Jian, as if facing a formidable enemy, shouted, "Everyone, listen to my command! Kill this woman who has barged into Su Village with all your might, dead or alive!"

In an instant, the small manor was filled with the sound of gunfire. Jiang Jian set off fireworks into the air and hurried to the storeroom.

Seeing Mingyue holding a torch, Jiang Jian felt his breath catch in his throat. He suppressed his panic and calmly said, "Grand Preceptor, if we have offended you in any way, please feel free to point it out, but this time we beg you to be lenient!"

Mingyue tilted her head and smiled faintly, "No."

As she spoke, Mingyue threw the torch in her hand into the storeroom, and in an instant, flames mercilessly engulfed the entire storeroom.

Jiang Jian stared blankly at the burned-down warehouse. The firelight shone on his dark pupils, flickering, and he opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word.

"Don't worry, I also took the blueprints you left in the study and burned them."

Jiang Jian's eyes flickered, but there was no ripple in them. How could she have gotten the blueprints in such a short time and then poured alcohol on them in the warehouse?
