My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Chapter 33: Gifted the Ming Alliance Token

With Elder Yes affirmation, the eyes of the people in the private room changed when looking at Lou Mu Yan. Even those that followed Elder Ye into the room stared with a fierce desire at the white porcelain bottle he was holding.

Elder Ye thought a bit, then asked Lou Mu Yan with a smile: What starting price does Young Miss Lou plan to set for this pill?

I dont really understand these things, but I believe the Ming Alliance of Merchants will help me sell this at a good price. So I ask of Elder Ye to also set the starting price. Lou Mu Yan displayed a gentle smile. She showed a lot of trust towards the Ming Alliance of Merchants.

Elder Ye nodded and smiled, saying: Since that is the case, then this old man will set the price for Young Miss Lou.

Then Ill trouble Elder Ye. Lou Mu Yan replied politely.

Elder Ye nodded with a smile, thought a little, then couldnt help but ask: Young Miss Lou, do you still have more Marrow Cleansing Pills?

He originally wanted to ask how Lou Mu Yan obtained this Marrow Cleansing Pillwas it because she met a powerful Alchemist? But he held back. After all, the majority of Alchemists had weird temperaments and didnt like other people enquiring about them. She could only do his best to befriend Lou Mu Yan for now.

The others also stared at Lou Mu Yan with scorching gazes.

I also obtained this Marrow Cleansing Pill by accident, and while I do indeed have two more on me, I dont plan on selling them. Lou Mu Yan refused with a smile.

Things that were rare were more expensive. She didnt want to suddenly take out so many at once, and as Ye Qing Han reminded, it wasnt suitable for her to reveal her identity as an Alchemist. Right now, her main task was to increase her strength as soon as possible.

Then that truly is a pity. Old Lu revealed some disappointment, but he quickly recovered his composure, smiled and said: If Young Miss Lou has other good pills or items you would like to sell in the future, then you can come to our Ming Alliance of Merchants. I promise you a satisfactory price.

After speaking, Elder Ye took out a silver token the size of a palm with the word Ming on it, then handed it to Lou Mu Yan, This is a token that is only given to the top distinguished guests of our Ming Alliance of Merchants. Now, this old man will make an exception and gift one to Young Miss Lou.

Seeing Elder Ye take out a silver token and hand it to Lou Mu Yan, everyones expressions changed.

To think the moment the Ming Alliance of Merchants gifted something, theyd gift something that was a representation of power, the silver token that was only given to those who had the strength of a Sword Monarch and aboveall this because Lou Mu Yan wanted to auction the Marrow Cleansing Pill? This was too exaggerated.

Lou Mu Yans luck was so good that it made people jealous, envy, and hateful¹.

But even if some of them had their doubts about this, the Ming Alliance of Merchants had always been domineering, so no one dared to question or object to the decisions they made.

Gu Yan Ran was in an exceptionally bad mood. Even when her nails embedded into her flesh, she didnt feel the pain, and she tried hard to cover up the jealousy in her eyes.

She didnt expect that Lou Mu Yan not only turned the tables, experienced such a fortuitous opportunity in obtaining the Marrow Cleansing Pill that eradicated her Terminal Meridians constitution, became an Initial-Phase Great Sword Master, but was now also so highly regarded by the Ming Alliance of Merchants. What sort of dog-crap luck² did she step on?

Lou Mu Yan took the token and felt that there was a small Array hidden inside this silver token. An understanding crossed her eyesthe Ming Alliance of Merchants strength was certainly powerful.

Thank you, Elder Ye. I, Lou Mu Yan, will remember this personal favour. Lou Mu Yan put the token into her interspatial ring and accepted Elder Yes display of friendliness.

The affection in Elder Yes eyes thickenedthough this little girl was rather young, but she was very clever and quick-witted. As expected from a child educated by a distinguished clan.

The previous rumours were probably all exaggerated and false. If such a quick-witted and intelligent woman was considered trash, then who knew how many trashes there were in this world.

When you return home, drip a drop of blood on your token and it will recognise you as its master. Even if other people obtain this token, itd be useless.

Elder Ye reminded again: Young Miss Lou must keep it safe. This tokens usage isnt just limited to auctions. But it is inconvenient for this old man to say anymore. You will know once you experience it in the future.

Lou Mu Yan nodded. She understood what Elder Ye meant. If there came a day where she had the strength to truly utilise this silver token, then naturally shed know its secrets; if she couldnt meet the requirements to use it, then she would also lose the qualification to use this token.

Elder Yes eyes inadvertently revealed slight admiration. If anyone else obtained their special guest Ming Alliance Token from the Ming Alliance of Merchants, then theyd probably already display excitement and joy on their face.

But this teenager girl was able to remain this calm and composed, maintaining an indifferent attitude from beginning to end, and without any arrogance or rashness. If she could retain this state of mind, then her future could not be assessed.

Yes, I understand. Lou Mu Yan appreciated Elder Ye.

Then this old man will go order the auctioning of this Marrow Cleansing Pill. And this Fire Cloud Mink was bought by you. Afterwards, the Alliance of Merchants will deduct the ink-gold coins from the auction of the pill, and the rest of the ink-gold coins will be settled together. Elder Ye motioned to the attendant who was carrying a cage behind him to put the Fire Cloud Mink down.

It could be regarded that he was selling Lou Mu Yan some facethe moment the Marrow Cleansing Pill was auctioned, then it would definitely attract the attention of Yanzhou Kingdom, and even the entire lands interest. Its price would be far more valuable than the Fire Cloud Mink.

Ok! Then I will trouble Elder Ye. Lou Mu Yan didnt feign modesty either. This was all because these people didnt know the actual value of a Spirit Devourer. If they knew, numerous high-level experts would come contend for it.

After Elder Ye took his people and left, everyones eyes were focused on Lou Mu Yan, with a burning desireparticularly Xiao Zi Ang. He was an Alchemist to begin with and loved Alchemy. He was about to stare a hole through Lou Mu Yan right now.

Lou Mu Yan sat in her seat, pondered for a moment, then before anyone could speak, threw one porcelain bottle to Yun Lan and Yun Jin each, raised her eyebrows and said: The last two Marrow Cleansing Pills, Ill gift them to you.

PU! Yun Jin spit the tea out directlyseriously? This generous?

Seeing the porcelain bottle thrown over, he immediately threw the teacup away and stretched out his hands to catch it carefully.

This is too valuable. Yun Lan reached out and caught the bottle containing the pill. Although he was very enticed by it, but he still endured the strong desire and looked at Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yans eyes were coloured with a smilethis cousins character was pretty good. But there was no way she would be able to keep these two pills, so shed rather turn it into a favour and gift it to Yun Lan. Her aunt loved her dearly since she was young, so this was also a sort of repayment.

As for gifting it to Yun Jin, one was because she felt that this man was rather pleasing to the eye earlier, and also because last time when Lou Mu Yan was injured by Gu Yan Ran, it was Yun Jin that stopped the womans final attack and sent her back to the Generals Mansion. Otherwise her dantian wouldve definitely been destroyed. It wouldve been difficult to cultivate again even with the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Regardless of why Yun Jin helped her then, she still remembered this personal favour. Using the Marrow Cleansing Pill to return that favour would be enough.

She had always done what she wanted in life. If a person looked pleasing to the eye, then Magic Tools, pills, so what if she gave it out at will; while if one wasnt pleasing to her eye, no matter how strong they were, how strong their background, if she said she didnt have any, then she didnt have any. Even if they gave her thousands of gold she wouldnt give anything.

As they waited for the pill in Elder Yes hands to be auctioned, she thought about the fact that not only would the Marrow Cleansing Pill rouse peoples attentions, but she would probably have people attentive of her as well.

If she still had these two pills in her hand, then shed definitely be harassed by many entities or other distinguished clans. Now that she gave it to Yun Lan and Yun Jin, then she could simply say she had no more, and no one could do anything about it.
