White Dawn, who had been lying on a recliner pretending to be a master, only snorted coldly and didn’t say anything. But his snort made the surrounding people feel immense pressure!

“Alright! I hope we can cooperate happily. Hurry up and find my master to exchange for herbs! Remember, there’s nothing you can’t exchange for!” Darling summarized again and chased away the people surrounding them. Then he lay comfortably on a recliner, crossed his legs, drank tea, ate delicious snacks, and waited patiently for the next batch of alchemists to arrive.

After everyone left, Leng Ruoxue and Freak slowly walked over from not far away.

“Beloved Master!” Darling was the first to jump into Leng Ruoxue’s arms and acted coquettishly.

“You’re so amazing! You actually used both coercion and temptation,” Leng Ruoxue said with a laugh. She really couldn’t do anything about her beasts. Alas! Why are these little beasts so cute?

“Master, that ugly monster with the surname Lan actually dared to forbid you from entering the city. Hmph! Then we’ll ruin their medicinal herb exchange meeting,” Darling said hatefully.

“Haha, that suits me.” Leng Ruoxue caressed Darling’s soft fur.

Feng Zhan flew to Leng Ruoxue’s shoulder and said with slight pride, “Hehe, Master, we have to make the Lan family suffer.”

“Be careful!” Leng Ruoxue said worriedly. She thought about it and also let Icy out of the bracelet.

“Little Snowy, I want to sleep,” Icy said reluctantly.

“Sleep here!” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly. She would be much more at ease with Icy staying with her beasts.

“Alright!” Icy looked at the beasts and answered. Then he jumped onto a recliner and laid down lazily.

Leng Ruoxue left some food for the beasts and returned to the exchange venue…

Three days later.

Leng Ruoxue’s medicinal herb exchange meeting was extremely popular, attracting many alchemists. Today was also the opening day of the Lan family’s medicinal herb exchange meeting…

At the Lan family’s medicinal herb exchange meeting venue…

The second master of the Lan family, Lan Fei, who was presiding over the medicinal herb exchange meeting, arrived at the venue early. It was almost time for the exchange meeting to officially begin, but there was no one here. This made Lan Fei a little puzzled!

“Steward Wu, why isn’t anyone here?” Lan Fei asked with some dissatisfaction. Where did those damn alchemists go? There’s actually not a single person?

“Second Master, erm… I’m not sure either, but… I heard from the manager of the inn that many alchemists have checked out. Moreover, their whereabouts are unknown,” Steward Wu replied cautiously with a forehead full of cold sweat.

“Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and find out the reason. I won’t let you go if we miss the time of the exchange!” Lan Fei roared loudly, so angry that his face and neck were red, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

“Yes, I’ll go immediately!” Steward Wu said fearfully and disappeared with a whoosh.

An hour later.

A certain elder who came to participate in the opening of the medicinal herb exchange meeting began to make things difficult!

“Second Master, can you explain what happened?” the third elder, who was sitting in a chair, asked lightly. He had never liked this gloomy second master, so he naturally wouldn’t let go of such a good opportunity.

“Steward Wu has already gone to investigate,” Lan Fei said with cold sweat on his forehead. He was so angry. This was obviously his best chance to perform, but he didn’t expect this to happen. Not only did he not get the chance to perform, but he also left a bad impression on others. Alas! The gains really didn’t make up for the losses!

“Hmph! You are only investigating it now? What were you doing earlier?” The third elder snorted with a displeased face.

“Uh! Erm… This is just an accident. I think those alchemists are most likely delayed by something,” Lan Fei explained with a frown.

“An accident? I think it’s obviously a mistake,” the third elder said stubbornly.

“Hehe, Third Elder, calm down! It’s the first time Second Master is in charge of such a big activity. It’s normal for some accidents to happen without experience,” the second elder mediated.

“Second Elder, I know you watched Lan Fei grow up, but mistakes are mistakes. How can you use inexperience as an excuse! Hmph! You didn’t even pass this little test, and you still want to compete for the position of the patriarch?” The third elder’s words were very sharp. The Lan family might already have a young master, but that was only for the grandchildren. The current patriarch of the Lan family had yet to decide which son would take over the position of the patriarch after he retired. Moreover, it was common knowledge that most of the elders wanted the eldest son of the patriarch, Lan Lie’s father, Lan Tian, to take over the position of the patriarch. This way, Young Master Lan Lie’s position could be more stable.

However, the patriarch had recently released word that all his sons were qualified to vie for the position of the patriarch. Therefore, these sons of the patriarch’s concubines were all restless!

“Third Elder, I admit that I didn’t consider it carefully this time. However, denying my ability just because of this matter is very unfair to me,” Lan Fei argued. He hated this third elder, who liked to find trouble with him everywhere, to death! Hmph! Old thing, I’ll get rid of you first when I become the patriarch!

“Do you think this matter is a small matter? Do you think if there are such functions like this in the future, we will dare to hand them to you?” the third elder asked in disdain.

“By the way, the opening time of the medicinal herb exchange has passed, but the person you sent hasn’t returned yet,” the third elder added.

The third elder’s words left Lan Fei speechless…

“Third Elder, what’s the point of saying all this now that things have come to this? Let’s think about how to remedy the situation!” the second elder said.

“Remedy? I’ve participated in so many medicinal herb exchanges, and this is the first time I’ve encountered an exchange without a single alchemist participating. If news of this spreads, our Lan family will become everyone’s laughing stock. Also, what do you want to do with the people watching outside?” the third elder asked loudly while looking at the people sitting..
