My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Lou Mu Yan watched Shi Feng walk over, but she didn’t expect that this person would talk to her.

Although Shi Feng was expressionless, but she could feel that he wasn’t hostile. She nodded calmly: “I’m Lou Mu Yan. Something the matter?”

“I heard that you have a pill called the Marrow Cleansing Pill?” Only when Shi Feng mention pills was there a slight fluctuation in his usually calm eyes.

Lou Mu Yan’s expression didn’t change: “Yes, but I don’t have anymore now.”

“Do you have the pill formula for the Marrow Cleansing Pill? I can exchange it with you for a high-level Grade 3 pill formula.” This was the first time that Shi Feng ever mentioned wanting to make such a transaction with anyone.

He was very excited when he heard about the efficacy of the Marrow Cleansing Pill. The pill formlua of a pill that had such an effect, defying normalcy, was something no Alchemist could refuse. He didn’t know whether Lou Mu Yan would agree to his proposal or not, but he wanted to give it a try regardless.

“I don’t. The pill formula of the Marrow Cleansing Pill is in my Master’s hands.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged and expressed helplessness.

Recently, many people desired her Marrow Cleansing Pill, but Shi Feng seemed to only be interested in the pill formula.

If it were someone else, they might be tempted by the deal he proposed. After all, it wouldn’t be a disadvantage to exchange a Grade 2 pill formula for a Grade 3 High-Level pill formula. But in her head, there existed unique pill formulas that don’t even exist on this Continent, so how could she be tempted by Shi Feng’s Grade 3 pill formula.

Shi Feng appeared to have expected it, but he was still a little bit disappointed. He fell silent for a while, then said to Lou Mu Yan with a calm expression: “If you want to trade in the future, you can come to the Shi Clan to find me.”

“Alright!” Lou Mu Yan didn’t refuse either.

“Then excuse me!” Shi Feng said politely before turning to leave.

Lou Mu Yan quickly withdrew her gaze that was on him. This person sure was quite polite.

After Shi Feng left, she found an empty space and sat down, ignoring the gazes that were cast on her from all directions. She calmly took out a soft and delicious pastry from her interspatial ring to eat.

A quarter of an hour later, the Trial teams of the Ten Distinguished Clans quickly gathered and hurried to the boundary between the outer ring and the periphery of the Glacial Mountain Range.

Only the people of Yan’zhou Kingdom who participated in the Trial and the Demonic Beast corpses scattered around remained. Lan Si also returned to the team.

He nipped a piece of tea pastry from Lou Mu Yan and sent it to his moth, then said with a smile: “Lou Mu Yan, you made these yourself?”

“Yeah, it’s made with Spiritual Tea.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t know from where Lan Si could tell that the pastries were made by herself, but she didn’t conceal it either.

“It tastes pretty good.” Lan Si took another piece and swallowed it.

Lou Mu Yan guessed that he still had something to say, so she didn’t respond, and just smiled faintly.

“Aren’t you going to breakthrough? It’s dangerous after we enter the boundary between the outer ring and the inner ring.” Lan Si slowly took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth and hands, then tossed it away casually. The handkerchief vanished with the wind without a trace.

Lou Mu Yan pursed her lips, “Maybe, during our next rest.”

The Spiritual Energy had already reached its peak within her, and her cultivation base had already reached a bottleneck. It was only because it was inconvenient to immediately advance in the Glacial Mountain Range, that’s why she had been suppressing her cultivation base. Since Lan Si reminded her so kindly, then she had nothing to hide either.

The corners of Lan Si’s lips raised, and he didn’t say anymore. Only after resting for almost two hours and after feeling that the distance between them and the team ahead had lengthened, did he tell everyone to rise and keep going.

While on the way, Lou Mu Yan saw that Yun Lan wanted to talk to her, but was hesitating, so she said first, “Elder Cousin Brother has something to tell me?”

“It’s nothing big, I just wanted to ask, you’re very familiar with Ye Qing Han?”

“Yeah, we can be considered friends.” Lou Mu Yan nodded with a smile.

Yun Lan fell silent for a while, then said: “Then, Mu Yan, can you help me arrange a battle him to exchange pointers?”

“Elder Cousin Brother, why do you insist on exchanging pointers with Ye Qing Han?” Lou Mu Yan had always been curious as to why Yun Lan wanted to chase after Ye Qing Han so persistently.

“His skill attributes are the same as mine. Every time I finish fighting with him, I’ll always have some comprehensions. It just so happens that my current sword skill is at a bottleneck.” Yun Lan explained.

He wasn’t that familiar with Ye Qing Han, and it was only accidental that they fought twice before. If he went to arrange a battle with Ye Qing Han, he feared that he would misunderstand, so he wanted to ask Lou Mu Yan for help.

Lou Mu Yan smiled in understanding now and said: “So it’s like that. Then after the Trial, I’ll help you ask him.”

Either way, after the Trial’s over, she needed to go to the Ye Clan for a month, so it was fine to take an extra person. Ye Qing Han presumably wouldn’t reject either.

“Alright, then I’ll trouble Mu Yan.”

Along the way, they encountered countless attacks from Demonic Beasts, and even a few Tier 4 Demonic Beasts that lead groups, but they were all avoided.

Of course, the effect of Lou Mu Yan’s powdered drug took half the credit.

They hurried on with their journey while killing Demonic Beasts and seven days passed. The group of talents arrived at the border between the forest and icy mountains.

Lan Si and the other instructors took them to a place at the foot of the icy mountains. There sat a wooden hut, and after entering, a warm current spread towards them.

In the middle of the wooden hut, there was a stove, and above the stove rose wisps of steam. There was also a kettle atop of it, and a white-haired old man sat before it—Yun Cang.

“You’re all here. Take a seat.” Yun Cang raised his eyes and nodded to everyone.

Lan Si and the few instructors sat down, then the students all found a random spot to sit.

“Lou girl, I heard that you have quite good tea-making skills. Come and make a pot.”

Lou Mu Yan lowered her eyes, pulled Lou Mu Bai together to sit beside Yun Cang, then said: “Yes.”

Yun Cang smiled, took out a box of Spiritual Tea from his interspatial ring and handed it to Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yan took the Spiritual Tea and as soon as she opened the lid, a rich and fragrant smell wafted to her nose. She took a few spoonsful out and started to brew tea.

As expected from the Imperial Teacher of Yan’zhou Kingdom, the quality of this Spiritual Tea was much better than the quality of the tea she obtained from Shopkeeper Lu.

Lou Mu Yan’s actions that were like moving clouds and flowing water were very pleasing to the eye. Then she listened to Yun Cang’s order and poured everyone a cup.

Yun Cang’s value of Lou Mu Yan and his different attitude towards her made most of the other students astounded, and they all reassessed Lou Mu Yan in their hearts.

Yun Cang took a sip from his teacup and his eyes revealed some satisfaction, then said rather slowly towards everyone: “Starting today, your Trial truly begins.

“Your first mission. Within five days, each of you must go out and kill at least ten Tier 5 Demonic Beasts and come back. You can team up to complete the mission, or you can snatch it from other people, but you aren’t allowed to kill each other.

“After five days, come here to meet us. If you don’t reach the number, you will be eliminated automatically. Then a small team from the Imperial Family will escort the eliminated people back to the Imperial Capital.”

“Yes, Imperial Teacher!”

Hearing the first task issued, every student participating in the Trial here were all feeling ambitious and fervent.

“By the way, you need to complete this operation alone or in any team. The instructors will no longer accompany you throughout, so pay attention to your own safety. If you die here, then everything will be over for you!

“I hope that you will all stay alive.” Yun Cang drank all the tea in the cup and with a serious expression, “Rest for a night, and you’ll leave early tomorrow morning. Whether you complete the mission or not, five days later, before this time, report back.”

“We will follow the instructions of the Imperial Teacher!”
