Remus halted abruptly at the mention of "Herbal Pavilion"."Herbal Pavilion?" Gemma exclaimed in astonishment. She asked incredulously, "How do you have pills from the Herbal Pavilion? Herbal Pavilion is known for supplying pills exclusively to the sacred lands. Could it be that you are—"Marsh cut in swiftly, "There's been a misunderstanding. These pills were a lucky find, meant for emergencies. It's just that fate has brought Remus and me together, prompting this exchange."After saying that, he covertly gave Elsie a look, indicating to not reveal their connection to the Herbal Pavilion.If they were to discover that they originated from the sacred grounds while searching for Oblivion Grass, and then link it to the upcoming assessment within five days, it could potentially lead to considerable disruptions.Elsie coldly glanced at Marsh as she had intentionally mentioned the Herbal Pavilion.She murmured to herself, "Can an independent alchemist truly dare to be so temperament

"Stop, that's enough!" Marsh interjected, his voice a mix of awe and bewilderment, "Your insights are astounding, Remus. You've shared the simplest method, and that suffices!"Remus halted his explanation. He hadn't misled them, each top-tier herb indeed possessed its unique spirit. A common example was ginseng, which had to be tied with a string, or it could easily escape.He replied, "Then, let us part ways here. If fate allows, we'll meet again!"Dawn was approaching, and they had to hasten their journey. Any delay on the road posed a greater threat to the Tanjen Organization. Resolving the matter with the Herbal Pavilion had become an urgent priority."Indeed, may fate bring us together again," Marsh replied, clasping his hands in respect. He watched Remus intently, feeling an unusual curiosity about this man, wishing to linger a moment longer.But as soon as he finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from above them, saying, "I had such a hard time finding you, haha!"All o

As Remus' declaration hung in the air, Marsh, Elsie, and Draig were equally stunned.Then suddenly, a burst of laughter erupted from above, all 12 people burst into laughter as if they had heard the biggest joke in the world."Did he just say he can kill Draig?""Hilarious! He's got quite the temper for such a little ant!""I love seeing little ants furious and talking nonsense. You should try killing him, haha!"Their laughter echoed through the mountain, a chorus of disbelief and amusement at Remus' audacity."Do you ... do you know what you're saying?" Elsie's eyes widened in anger. Draig had already intended to kill him, and he still dared to threaten them. If this persisted, Marsh might not only have to kneel but also endure further humiliation.Marsh struggled to speak, "Remus, I understand your anger, but be cautious with your words. You might unintentionally provoke more trouble—"His words were cut short by a startling development above.Draig, who had been exceedin

In the rugged terrain of the vast mountains, Zaiden Hugo's rapid footsteps echoed, barely noticing the old man trailing behind him."Mr. Hugo, please slow down. Marsh can surely handle himself. Why this haste?" the old man calmly remarked, his voice contrasting sharply with Zaiden's urgency.Despite his words of reassurance, a mischievous glint danced in his eyes, hinting at his underlying intentions."Shut up!" Zaiden exclaimed, his face a mix of impatience and concern. He was far more anxious than he was willing to admit.The old man chuckled and taunted, "Mr. Hugo, my words are my own, how can you ask me to shut up? Letting the young ones settle their own disputes is a sign of wisdom, not negligence."Zaiden chose to remain silent as he marched ahead. Then, unexpectedly, a strong whiff of blood reached him, causing his heart to skip a beat."Could it be Marsh and Elsie?" he thought, quickening his pace.The old man behind also caught a whiff of it and looked surprised before

Glinda arrived at the Imperial Villa. She resumed her original appearance and sat in the empty living room, all alone. She had been waiting here for two days and hadn't seen a single soul.Just then, the door creaked open, and Kylie, who was dressed in office attire, entered the room from outside."Glinda?" Kylie's eyes initially showed a hint of surprise but quickly turned cold."Back so soon, Glinda? Tired of chasing your perfect man already? Or did he get tired of you?" she taunted.Their relationship had been quite harmonious before, but it had taken a sour turn following Glinda's previous return. She had incessantly extolled her "ideal man" while belittling Remus, resulting in a heated and bitter confrontation.Glinda's face was initially lit with the joy of reunion but darkened at Kylie's words. "I'm afraid to disappoint you. We're doing very well. I'm here for a different reason. Is there a new woman at the Villa?"Kylie's tone was nonchalant. "Remus Spark brought her. B
