After Jun Ye finished speaking, he chuckled and reached out his finger to flick Xiao Li's nose.
Xiao Li frowned, quickly stepped aside, and took a sip of tea.
Jun Ye didn't care; he just thought Huang Xiaoli looked especially beautiful today.
"Ah Li, you're so beautiful, much prettier than your older sister."
"Really? Say it again."
Xiao Li took out the recording stone, which was a gift from Huang Jinxuan. It wasn't very useful; it could only record a few words. Huang Jinxuan only took it out because the time was too short.
"Of course it's true. Huang Mingyue is mediocre and plain-looking. I don't like her at all. I want to break off our engagement."
Xiao Li put the photo stone away with satisfaction.
"Alright, I'll head back now. Come find me again after you've broken off the engagement."
Jun Ye was stunned. Why was he leaving so soon after arriving? He used to always stay until night before going home.
Xiao Li called her maid in, then went downstairs and left. She didn't want to talk to Jun Ye anymore; that scumbag.
Xiao Li went straight home. She wasn't in the mood to go shopping. In this world where strength reigns supreme, she didn't want her fate to be in someone else's hands.
Xiao Li went to Huang Mingyue's place as soon as she got home.
"What do you mean by this? Are you showing off?"
Huang Mingyue was delighted. Whoever wanted Jun Ye could have him; she didn't want him.
Xiao Li shook her head, "Big sister, I know you want to break off the engagement. I'll lend you this memory stone. I hope your wish comes true!"
Although Huang Mingyue schemed against the original owner, it was indeed the original owner who stole her fiancé.
Xiao Li only hoped that Huang Mingyue would stop trying to take advantage of her. This world was too dangerous, and Xiao Li needed to cultivate for a while before making any further plans.
Huang Mingyue was taken aback; she hadn't expected her domineering younger sister to know her thoughts.
"He is not a good man."
Huang Mingyue thought for a long time before finally managing to utter this sentence.
Xiao Li instantly understood what she meant. This was advice to her: an ordinary person who marries into a prestigious family, even if she gets the position of young mistress, will not be able to keep it.
Xiao Li smiled and said, "I have never liked him, so naturally I will not marry him. You just need to get out of this situation yourself."
Huang Mingyue was somewhat surprised, not expecting her younger sister to be such a sensible person.
"I understand. Thank you this time. I'll help you next time."
For three days in a row, Xiaoli did not go out. She stayed at home researching ways to become stronger.
The mainstream cultivation method in this world is summoner. To cultivate, one must have spiritual roots, but the original owner was just an ordinary person and had no spiritual roots at all.
We need to think of a solution.
123 quickly offered up its treasure, "Master, there is a kind of spirit-renewing grass in this world. After eating it, one can expand one's sea of consciousness, train one's spiritual power, and even awaken one's spiritual root."
Xiao Li thought this was good, "It seems that Huang Mingyue obtained one before."
"Yes, that was an opportunity she obtained in the secret realm. She successfully advanced to the level of a Great Spirit Master and gained the male protagonist's attention."
Xiao Li shook her head. The secret realm was not suitable for her. She had no spiritual power now, and her only trump cards were mental power and spatial ability.
"Cultivate first, then go."
Xiao Jiu also agreed, "There are no opportunities without a reason. It's best for the master to buy them from outside."
123 nodded, "I understand. We can pretend we bought it, and then we can start cultivating."
That's it.
In the afternoon, Xiaoli went out shopping. She went to South Street, where there were many vendors.
Because it is close to the Vientiane Forest, many herbal medicine merchants who have just come out of the forest trade there.
Many people also want to take matters into their own hands and earn more spirit stones.
Xiao Li just wanted to find a bargain and buy a fake Huanling Grass while she was at it.
Many of the people here were outlaws, so Xiaoli carefully put on a veil to cover her face.
Xiao Li possessed powerful mental strength, making it impossible for others to discern her abilities. She strolled through each of the stalls.
There are quite a few medicinal herbs, but they are all expensive, so it's not worth buying them.
Xiao Li casually selected a few interesting spiritual herbs and bought them, then had the guards behind her carry them.
Xiao Li stopped as she passed a small stall in a corner.
Most of the spiritual herbs on this stall are low-grade, useless herbs that are barely alive and have little value, so they are very cheap.
Only two spiritual herbs caught her eye.
One of them is a poisonous plant with toxic leaves; if you touch it even slightly, you will forget the present moment and leave in a daze.
This medicinal herb is very deceptive and extremely difficult to harvest.
There is another spiritual herb called Beauty Fragrance, which has a very enchanting large flower on top. The flower is in full bloom and has a fragrance.
However, its flowers are actually useless; it is its roots that can be used as medicine. Xiao Li took a liking to this spiritual herb purely because it was beautiful.
"I'll take all the medicinal herbs from this stall."
Everyone around immediately turned to look.
"Has this person found some treasure?"
Several pairs of eyes scanned him back and forth, and the vendor's expression also darkened.
"Could it be that I've been looking too closely and managed to pick a rare spiritual plant?"
