"Didn't I already give you those pills? What? You finished them already?" Xiao Yan asked as he put away the remaining medicinal ingredients. It seemed he would have to have his subordinates collect more ingredients for Seventh-Grade Pills. Still, to refine them on this scale again, he would probably have to wait at least another year or two.
"Hehe, I just came to give you an idea." Zi Yan propped her chin on her palm and grinned. "Don't you want to refine pills? I know somewhere with more than enough medicinal ingredients for you to burn through."
"Where?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
"Jia Nan Academy." Zi Yan flicked her purple ponytail. "The Inner Academy has a medicinal storehouse filled with all kinds of rare ingredients. I guarantee it holds at least as much as we found in that Ruins of Return."
"That I don't doubt." Xiao Yan nodded. Jia Nan Academy had stood on the Dou Qi Continent for so long that its collections were naturally abundant. In his previous life, he had looted quite a few things after slaughtering his way through the academy. Some things, however, had been hidden extremely well, and he had not yet possessed the heaven-shaking cultivation he would attain later, so he had not taken all its truly precious treasures.
"But would Jia Nan Academy give me those ingredients?" he asked with a frown.
"That's what I'm here for! I'll take you inside, we'll steal some ingredients, then split them fifty-fifty..." Zi Yan rubbed her little hands together excitedly. "I've spent so many years at Jia Nan Academy that I know exactly where all the good stuff is. With me leading the way, we'll never get caught."
"...Jia Nan Academy must have accumulated three lifetimes of good fortune to have a student like you."
