Because Wei Tianci and Leng Ruolian have nothing in common.
So the journey down the mountain was extremely boring, and the car remained deathly silent the entire time.
Leng Ruolian remained silent throughout.
Wei Tianci wouldn't want to make a fool of himself.
After studying the feng shui of the mountains, he immediately considered his current itinerary.
Although the system did not assign me any story missions.
However, in the original storyline, Ye Fan did indeed send a formula to An Muyue.
It seems that he also bought an item at an auction in Kunming, and later gave it to Empress Leng.
The things I'm about to do actually coincide with the original plot.
The reward can't be small!
Wei Tianci then mentally shouted, "System?"
{Hello, host.}
Wei Tianci quickly sat up straight. It was good that the system dared to show itself; he was just afraid that the idiotic system would pretend to be dead again.
He quickly said, "I get a reward for advancing the plot; that's an ironclad rule."
{Yes, host.}
Wei Tianci continued, "Very good, so Ye Fan sent the formula to An Muyue and also sent auction items to Leng Ruolian. Isn't that part of the original plot?"
{Yes, host, it's all part of the original storyline.}
Wei Tianci said with a half-smile, "Now that I'm taking the initiative to push this plot forward and deliver the formula and auction items on Ye Fan's behalf, shouldn't you give me a big reward?"
The system is down.
Wei Tianci brainwashed him, saying, "The system gives me a task, I complete it, and I deserve the reward."
"The system didn't assign me any tasks, so I completed them on my own initiative. I deserve a reward even more!"
The system remained silent for a full ten minutes.
Wei Tianci inexplicably felt a little nervous.
{Sorry, host, this logic fails.}
The tasks and rewards have already been matched and fixed; they cannot be mixed up.
Just when Wei Tianci was speechless at the system's inflexibility, a glimmer of hope appeared.
The system's sound was mechanical and resonant.
However, given the host's initiative, this auction will reward the host with a double reimbursement card.
{Ding! Your double reimbursement card has been credited to your account. Please check.}
Wei Tianci glanced at the card and was pleasantly surprised.
With this card, I'll be unstoppable at the auction later, killing everyone in my path!
However, the downside is that this card can only be bid on three times, and bids that are too outrageous will not be counted.
This outrageous definition wasn't explained in detail; you have to figure it out yourself.
Wei Tianci understood the rule.
Otherwise, he could easily ask for tens of trillions, hundreds of trillions, or even trillions.
This could potentially cause global price chaos in no time.
Wei Tianci then pondered the objectives of this auction and analyzed the priorities.
The first thing we need to get our hands on is ginseng that is over 3,000 years old!
Because this is the main ingredient for refining the Longevity Pill, it concerns the lives of myself and my family, so this is of utmost importance!
However, ginseng that is three thousand years old is extremely rare, a treasure that is extremely rare in the world. Whether or not it will be auctioned in Kunming depends on luck.
If it exists, we must acquire it.
The second goal was to take a picture of the drug formula for An Muyue, which was easy to achieve.
Because similar formulas are leaked out at every auction.
Because there are too many pharmaceutical companies in the world, not every company is content with making slow and steady profits.
Some companies are very willing to make a one-off deal and transfer the formula to you in one go.
You can make a steady, long-term profit; I'll just take the quick bucks.
The last goal is to regain the favors of those around me who have become distant.
Thinking of this, Wei Tianci asked in confusion, "What exactly do you need for this auction?"
Leng Ruolian drove without looking to the side, and after hearing this, she said calmly, "Soul-stabilizing herb."
Wei Tianci raised his eyebrows upon hearing this: "The Kunming auction house also has this?"
Leng Ruolian's pupils contracted, then she said calmly, "You know about the Soul-Stabilizing Grass?"
Soul-stabilizing grass was a priceless treasure in ancient times because it could repair a cultivator's injured soul.
Furthermore, it is also a key ingredient in refining Nascent Soul Pills!
However, in modern times, spiritual energy became scarce, and high-level alchemy cultivators gradually disappeared.
Therefore, both the Soul-Stabilizing Grass and the Nascent Soul Pill became history.
However, the Soul-Stabilizing Grass just happened to appear at this Kunming auction.
So, Leng Hou, who was eager to hunt, was instantly tempted.
Even if she didn't expect the Nascent Soul Pill, the Soul-Stabilizing Grass itself would still be very beneficial to her.
She will eventually attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, so having the Soul-Stabilizing Grass might be twice as effective.
However, what Leng Ruolian did not expect was that Wei Tianci actually knew about something as secret as the Soul-Stabilizing Grass.
In modern society, no one should have ever heard of a material called "soul-stabilizing herb".
Wei Tianci said indifferently, "I've heard a little about it."
"If there really is a Soul-Stabilizing Herb at the auction, I will sell everything I own to buy it for you, so that I can settle the debt of gratitude I owe you."
Because of the double reimbursement card, money is not a problem; the more you spend, the better.
However, Leng Ruolian's request did surprise him a bit.
[This woman is actually after the Soul-Stabilizing Grass?]
[Could she be planning to gather all the materials to refine a Nascent Soul Pill?]
[My goodness, how did you cultivate? How can you advance so quickly in modern society?]
"Wait, could it be that someone else besides me can refine Nascent Soul Pills?"
Wei Tianci's face showed suspicion.
The more he studied ancient alchemy, the more he understood its intricacies.
If it weren't for the system's assistance, he probably wouldn't have been able to even get started.
An ordinary alchemist would need at least three to five hundred years of alchemy experience to refine a Nascent Soul Pill.
In modern society, no one can live that long, so there shouldn't be anyone who can refine the Nascent Soul Pill!
Upon hearing the voice in her heart, Leng Ruolian slammed on the brakes, bringing the Mercedes-Benz G-Class to a stop.
She suddenly turned her head and stared intently at Wei Tianci.
'Wei Tianci actually has the ability to refine Nascent Soul Pills?'
It was like a nuclear bomb exploding in Leng Ruolian's mind.
She was so shocked that she felt dizzy.
This is absolutely outrageous!
If this wasn't Wei Tianci's true feeling, it would have revealed his true intentions.
If anyone else had told her this, she would have absolutely refused to believe it!
Because this defies common sense!
Wei Tianci is so young, even if he knows alchemy, it should only be a small-scale affair.
How can they even refine such a heaven-defying pill as the Nascent Soul Pill?
This is not scientific!
Wei Tianci asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Leng Ruolian released the brake and started moving again.
She gripped the steering wheel tightly as she drove, staring straight ahead, her face calm, her eyelashes fluttering.
There are only two main ingredients for the Nascent Soul Pill.
One is the Soul-Stabilizing Grass.
One is a ginseng that is over three thousand years old.
If I manage to get my hands on the Soul-Stabilizing Grass at this auction...
Does that mean she only needs to find ginseng that is over three thousand years old?
Then Wei Tianci could refine a Nascent Soul Pill for him?
This happiness came so suddenly!
