“Okay.” Zu An’s expression softened as he looked at her.
Mi Li subconsciously tugged at her clothes, feeling as if this guy's eyes could see right through her. She quickly changed the subject: "By the way, have you found out anything about those things I told you about before?"
Zuan knew she was referring to the rare and precious treasures used to rebuild the body: "I'm really sorry, I checked the Embroidered Robe Envoy's database and couldn't find any of them."
Mi Li's delicate brows furrowed slightly: "Could it be that with the passage of time, all those medicinal herbs have become extinct?"
Zuan comforted him, "Don't worry too much. Maybe it's just that the name has changed over time. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye out for you. The more resources I have at my disposal in the future, the easier it will be for me to find out where those things are."

Zuan: "..."
Sister, are you praising me or insulting me?
At this point, Mi Li continued, "What you did were just petty favors. Although you have good relationships with some people, do you think they will help you in a crucial moment because of that?"
"Do we need to build our own loyal team?" Zuan suggested.
Mi Li shook her head again: "No, your personal strength is not enough right now. There is no point in forcibly building your own team. Moreover, it is easy to make taboos by doing these things under the emperor's nose."
"What should we do then?" Zuan was really at his wit's end.
A glint of light flashed in Mi Li's eyes: "There are two things we can do!"
