Finally, Ning Wan bought a teleportation item and teleported herself directly to the next place to pick medicinal herbs.
Then……
Looking at the bare, extremely familiar scene, Ning Wan's temples throbbed.
There should have been a night-blooming cereus flower here!
That's all.
It's gone again!
"Who is it?!"
In her anger, Ning Wan couldn't help but express the resentment in her heart.
Even the viewers in the live stream noticed something was wrong.
It seems that Ning Wan knew the location of the required materials. She did not find the medicinal herbs by chance, but had already located them.
At first, she pretended it was unintentional and she just happened to be lucky enough to run into him.
Judging from his current state, it's obvious he knew there was something here, but someone else beat him to it...
So who exactly is so powerful?
It's like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, snatching food from the tiger's mouth!
The viewers in Jinshangyue and Jichaoyun's live stream were laughing hysterically.
Everyone was thoroughly enjoying the gossip.
[Hahaha~ I'm dying of laughter, you guys didn't see Ning Wan's absolutely ecstatic expression, hahaha~]
I went to take a look too, and her calm, composed mask finally cracked. Looking at that bare spot, Ning Wan's expression was absolutely hilarious!
[The Moon Emperor is amazing! How did he know that Ning Wan knew the location of the required materials in advance, and how did he manage to snatch them from her grasp and gain the upper hand?]
Ning Wan clearly cheated, but our Moon Emperor discovered this cheat and disabled it first. Now things are getting interesting. Ning Wan won't be able to gather all the materials for alchemy, so she can't compete for first place. I wonder how many people will feel embarrassed then.
[I just came back from Ning Wan's live stream. The viewers there were all in shock too. Luckily, they were still clear-headed and realized something was wrong.]
Wow, this is so lively! I'm going to go check it out and get some fresh news.
Soon, Jinshangyue and Jichaoyun's fans flocked to Ning Wan's live stream to watch the drama unfold.
Many people in the live stream were speculating about who had taken the rare and precious materials that Ning Wan had targeted first.
Jin Shangyue and Ji Chaoyun's fans chuckled to themselves, none of them offering any explanation. After enjoying the gossip, they quietly left and went back to their own world.
I truly came quietly and left quietly, without taking away a single cloud.
Some sharp-eyed netizens noticed a large influx of viewers into Ning Wan's live stream, who stayed for a few minutes before quietly leaving, leaving them all bewildered, confused, and dumbfounded.
But when they discovered that those quietly running in and out were fans of Jin Shangyue and Ji Chaoyun, none of them dared to make a sound.
We dared not ask anything, dared not say anything.
It's best for them to just observe the affairs of the big shots quietly, lest they become collateral damage and sacrifices in the power struggles among those in power.
Ning Wan was absolutely furious.
She went to several more places, but each time someone beat her to it and snatched away the medicinal herbs she had targeted.
After repeated verifications, the system has become accustomed to this.
They secretly conducted multiple tests, and each time they checked the surrounding environment, they got the same result.
There was no one else here except Ning Wan.
The system suddenly fell into self-doubt.
Is it broken?
Even the voices in Ning Wan's consciousness, constantly questioning it, blaming it, and cursing it, were ignored by the system.
Without a doubt, Jin Shangyue won first place in this round.
Ji Chaoyun followed closely behind, taking second place.
The person who came in third place was someone no one expected.
Yu Shiwei.
It was at this moment that netizens around the world who were following the event noticed Yu Shiwei's existence.
This level of attention is truly remarkable.
Then, the past gossip about Yu Shiwei and Jin Shangyue, the real and fake heiresses, was directly pushed to the top of the world's trending search list.
The whole world was caught off guard and was in an uproar.
What? Yu Shiwei and Jin Shangyue are both daughters of the Yu family, or is it a melodramatic story of a real and fake daughter?
What? The contestant who won third place in the second round is actually the fake heiress of the Yu family, and the Moon Emperor's former nominal sister?
What? After Yu Shiwei left the Yu family, she was noticed by the Third Elder of the Immortal Doctor Sect and taken in as his junior disciple, or even his personal disciple?
As more and more netizens delve deeper and learn more, more information is being exposed.
Regarding the claim that Yu Shiwei was born out of wedlock, that he was the son of Madam Yu and Lou Yin, a member of a collateral branch of the prestigious Lou family, the source of the story.
The moment this news broke, it got the whole world's gossip lovers completely excited.
Surprisingly, even these top powerful families and aristocratic clans cannot escape the "it's actually good" phenomenon.
It's just as chaotic, the same kind of cheating, the same kind of womanizing, the same kind of infidelity, and even the same kind of child swapping...
Yu Shiwei had already anticipated the day when she decided to participate in the competition.
So when the world's star network was abuzz with interest and discussion because of her.
She secretly revealed Jin Shangyue's background, using the fact that Jin Shangyue was also an illegitimate child to deflect criticism.
hehe!
The Moon Emperor you all worship and idolize is also an illegitimate daughter who can't be brought to the table.
The identity of her biological mother is even more interesting.
An emperor of one country had an illegitimate daughter with a nobleman from another country.
When this news breaks, the Star Empire's royal family will surely be in for a good time.
It remains to be seen whether Jinshangyue's biological mother will once again abandon her for the sake of imperial power.
Yu Shiwei was very much looking forward to it.
So while everyone was enjoying the gossip about Yu Shiwei, a piece of gossip about Jin Shangyue's background suddenly climbed to the top of the trending searches.
Then, in just over ten minutes, it squeezed out Yu Shiwei's trending topic and topped the list.
Holy crap! It's almost the end of the year, are they dropping a bombshell to give us all the gossip we could ever want?!
[Wow! I can find out this without even spending money?!]
[I just want to know, after seeing this trending topic and learning the inside story, will we be silenced?]
[The Empress of the Star Empire truly lives up to her reputation as my idol! This is the kind of play she's played—a woman should be this free and unrestrained, with power and the throne in one hand, and beautiful men and women in the other!]
[Unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable! The Moon Emperor's biological mother is actually so influential!]
Am I the only one who thinks that the stunning beauty of the Yu family patriarch and the stunning beauty of the Star Empire juxtaposed are simply breathtaking? What an absolutely gorgeous couple!
[Indeed! These two are both incredibly handsome and beautiful; no wonder they could have given birth to a child as stunningly beautiful and incomparably gorgeous as the Moon Emperor.]
[Ahhh! I suddenly realized that the pairing of the Yu family head and the Empress of the Star Empire is also really sweet! One of them is divorced and the other is widowed; they could totally get back together!]
In an instant, the comments section went off-topic, and the public's thinking was swayed.
From being shocked by Jin Shangyue's background at the beginning, to having a premonition that the Star Empire would be overthrown because of it, the story eventually veers off to romance and the love story of handsome men and beautiful women rekindling their past romance.
Upon seeing this, Yu Shiwei couldn't help but smash things in the room.
Are these netizens crazy?!
Can't you grasp the key points?!
