She's drawn a lot of these items, so she might as well exchange them for some gold coins to buy rare materials. He probably can't afford the other better items anyway, so she'll just have to put them up for auction...

"What is this?"

Looking at the seeds Yun Li took out, Mr. Yao was puzzled. Even he didn't recognize them and could only tell that they were probably the seeds of some kind of plant.

"This is the Seed of Abundance."

"A blessed seed sown by the God of Abundance; whoever comes into contact with it will have their wounds and diseases slowly healed."

Yun Li didn't try to hide anything and directly explained its origin.

That's just her personality—straightforward and outspoken. More importantly, she's never worried about offending or being afraid of anyone in this world.

Whoever tries to harm her will only be the one who suffers.

"The Seed of Abundance? The God of Abundance?"

"I have never heard of any God of Abundance, but anyone who has come into contact with it has had their injuries and illnesses healed, which is quite amazing."

Mr. Yao thought about it seriously for a few seconds. He had indeed never heard of any God of Abundance. In this Dou Qi Continent, no one would believe in gods.

What I believe in is fighting spirit and my own strength!

"If that's really the case, we'll have to see how effective the treatment is..."

Without knowing the specific treatment details for the Seed of Abundance, Mr. Yao was unable to estimate its value.

"Then why not give it a try?"

Yun Li glanced around, then looked at an injured mercenary, walked over and threw the Seed of Abundance at him.

She was also a little curious about the healing effects of the Seed of Abundance in this world.

This is only the lowest grade of the Seed of Abundance; above it are the Life Bud and the Purple-quality Eternal Flower.

If it could become Eternal Flower, that would be truly extraordinary.

Its stamens contain Power of Abundance and will never wither.

Whether placed in fire, frost, or any other harsh environment, its growth momentum cannot be suppressed in the slightest.

In time, its branches and leaves will feed on starlight; its roots will become soil from the blood and flesh of all living beings, forming a unified whole, immortal and indestructible.

Its fruit will be the fulfillment of the promise of eternal life.

Immortality!

The ultimate goal pursued by all intelligent beings, even the great emperors of some fantasy worlds, cannot achieve immortality.

However, Yun Li only drew two Eternal Flower, seven or eight Life Bud, and the rest were Seed of Abundance.

Yun Li placed the Seed of Abundance on the injured person, and the moment he came into contact with the seed, the wound began to heal itself.

His overall mental state was also improving rapidly, far better than Yun Li had expected, perhaps because his injuries were not too serious.

"Hahaha, my injury is healed! My injury is healed!"

Seeing that his wounds had healed, the mercenary quickly stood up, somewhat excited.

He was initially a little disgusted when Yun Li threw the seeds directly at him, but now he is only filled with gratitude and joy.

This is far better than those wound medicines; only some high-grade pills can compare.

However, elixirs are consumables, while seeds are not.

Mr. Yao had naturally thought of this as well, and was somewhat surprised.

"This... it actually has such a powerful healing effect?"

If that's the case, this thing is far more valuable than Monster Core, and his already strong greed intensified. Although he was still eyeing Little Fairy Doctor's things, he also had designs on this kind of treasure.

However, he hasn't reached the point where he can openly and legitimately start shooting.

"How?"

Picking up the Seed of Abundance again, Yun Li turned to ask Mr. Yao.

Although its effect was unexpectedly stronger than she had anticipated, it was just one Seed of Abundance, and she had plenty of others like it.

Moreover, given the situation on the Dou Qi Continent, generally speaking, without Abundance Divine Power, it simply cannot continue to grow and will remain a seed forever.

"Guest, let me tell you the truth! This item is far too precious for my Myriad Medicine Pavilion to afford right now..."

"Besides, you'll be at a huge loss if you sell it directly like this. It's better to have it auctioned off by an auction house. Of course, if you find it troublesome and don't mind, I can help you find an auction house to auction it off."

Mr. Yao looked unwilling to deceive Yun Li and kind, as if he were thinking of the young girl. He even offered to help her find a suitable auction house.

As for his true thoughts, only he knows them.

"I see?"

Yun Li was surprised that Mr. Yao would say such a thing.

He seemed quite wealthy, and since it was a pharmacy, he offered the Seed of Abundance in exchange for some gold coins.

If it were to be auctioned off, she wouldn't need him at all.

Why not just leave Qingshan Town and go to a larger urban area?

However, the girl didn't say anything more, nor did she sell the gold coins at a low price; she had enough for now. She'd deal with the rest when she got to other places.

Auction...

The auction industry is very developed in the Dou Qi Continent, with most cities having its own auction houses. Xiao Yan often makes money by going through auction houses and then picking up bargains from them.

The same applies to things like the Three Thousand Thunderclaps and fragments of the Exotic Flame Map...

Once you arrive in this world, you naturally have to experience it. Not only can you earn a lot of gold coins, but you may also find suitable materials for forging swords.

But we'll talk about that later...

After completing the transaction at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion, Yun Li prepared to leave, but still didn't notice Xiao Yi Xian. Unable to resist her curiosity, she asked Mr. Yao in front of her about Xiao Yi Xian's situation.

"You mean Little Fairy Doctor? She's off today and is researching medicine in the backyard."

Mr. Yao's eyes darted away subconsciously, and he casually explained the reason.

In reality, it was a form of house arrest.

Upon hearing this, Yun Li did not ask any further questions and turned to leave Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

Watching Yun Li's departing figure, Mr. Yao's expression changed instantly. Although he usually appeared to be a kind and compassionate doctor and was very amiable in front of outsiders, he was completely different in private.

However, unlike others, he wouldn't act directly. He also had to consider his reputation, so if possible, he preferred to act secretly.

Therefore, his first thought was to send a servant to follow Yun Li. Money can be a powerful motivator; if there were no other concerns, he would act decisively...

Let alone the ten thousand gold pieces, the Seed of Abundance alone are worth the risk for him.

After leaving Myriad Medicine Pavilion, Yun Li was not in a hurry to leave Qingshan Town. There were still some things here that she needed to confirm and pay attention to.

So she decided to find a place to stay first.

Because of the resources of the Monster Beast Mountain Range, Qingshan Town has no shortage of inns and hotels.

She stopped shortly on her way to the inn.

She had quite a few people following her along the way.

I've been following her ever since she left Myriad Medicine Pavilion. Did you think she didn't know?

When Yun Li stopped and looked over, the mercenaries no longer just followed her, but walked over openly.

They tacitly surrounded Yun Li, preventing her from escaping.

What do you want to do?

Yun Li looked at these lewd mercenaries. There were five of them in total, each of them burly and with a lewd smile on their face, which was repulsive.

Compared to Xianzhou, the public security here is really bad; people dare to act so recklessly on the streets.

"What do you want to do? Didn't your parents tell you that girls shouldn't come to places like this alone? Especially a pretty girl like you, it's very dangerous."

"Hehe, little beauty, where did you come from? I've never seen you before. Where are your family? Can't find your way home? Why don't you come home with me?"

"No, little beauty, don't go with him, come with your uncle, let your uncle take good care of you."

"Come with your brother, he'll take you to see the elephant that spits water..."

"How about this, young lady? You can choose any of the five of us, or all five of us together are fine too, hahaha..."

Five mercenaries surrounded Yun Li in a circle, their faces lewd and their words even more offensive.

In a world without a complete legal Order, especially in a world that worships the law of the jungle, having beauty without power is inherently wrong.

In their eyes, Yun Li had neither fighting spirit nor guards, so wasn't she just easy prey?

I feel like I'd be letting myself down if I didn't do something.

Moreover, generally speaking, such beauties are either enjoyed by the boss or are people you can't afford to offend or provoke; where would you normally get the chance to be with them?

Looking at the girl's bright, jade-like feet and her attire, their eyes burned even more intensely and became increasingly unrestrained.

"That's too much! How could they bully such a young girl?"

"Well, there's nothing we can do. They're from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, and they've always been arrogant and domineering."

This scene naturally attracted the attention of passersby. Some people looked indignant, but dared not provoke them.

The Wolf Head Mercenary Group is a local tyrant in Qingshan Town; they're not to be trifled with.

Others simply watched the spectacle from the sidelines, adopting an attitude of indifference, with no one stepping forward to stop it.

Seeing this, the mercenaries became even more unscrupulous, their faces filled with arrogance and pride.

"Why are there always some dogs in this world who like to block the way? Don't you think so, Old Iron?"

Yun Li ignored the group, not even glancing at them, and simply took Old Iron out of the system space.

As for the Wolf Head Mercenary Group and the Dog Head Mercenary Group, Yun Li wouldn't bother with them unless they provoked her, but...

He just asked for it!

"Little brat, who are you calling a dog?"

Seeing the heavy sword that Yun Li had conjured out of thin air, the mercenary group members were stunned and sensed something unusual, but then they were angered by the girl's words.

To be called a dog by a mere girl is unforgivable.

"Whoever barks like a dog is a dog."

Yun Li finally raised her head and looked at them directly, but the way she looked at them, as if they were dogs, made them even more furious.

"Hmph, I'd like to see who's the dog here. I hope you can handle it."

"Attack her together, grab her... show her what's what..."

Their gazes turned cold. The mercenaries exchanged glances, then, without wasting any more time, attacked her directly. A little brat without even a trace of fighting spirit had no idea what reality was.

However, at the very moment they made their move, Yun Li moved even faster.

She gripped the Old Iron with both hands and, as if swatting flies, swatted the mercenaries away one by one, sending them crashing to the ground, utterly dead.

There's no need to take these people seriously at all.

She even had to struggle to restrain herself, fearing she might destroy everything here. After all, she had only recently advanced in cultivation and hadn't fully mastered her power yet...

Having dealt with the mercenaries, Yun Li wasted no more time, turned around and continued walking with Old Iron on her back.

She simply regarded these people as vicious dogs barking in the road, which did not affect her goal at all.

Those around them were stunned by the scene. Yun Li clearly had no trace of battle aura on her body, yet she was so strong.

Those mercenaries were at least four or five-star fighters, and they were taken care of just like that.

Meanwhile, there were some mercenaries nearby, but the scene in front of them seemed familiar, as if they had seen it before.

"Hey, doesn't this scene seem familiar?"

A mercenary from another mercenary group who was watching realized what was happening, patted his companion on the shoulder, and asked him what was going on.

"What do you mean by déjà vu?"

The person being questioned didn't react immediately.

"That girl, don't you think she looks a lot like that person from before?"
