Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Kang Yuchen was afraid. He could not see through the man in front of him at all. This man seemed to be smiling, but his starry eyes were cold and could freeze people.

He would rather the Ninth Prince be furious and even kill him than see him acting so mysterious. He couldn’t see through him at all!

Kang Yuchen dared not to be angry. His head was stuck to the ground, and his body was trembling from fear. “Please forgive me, Your Highness!”

Xiao Yan laughed lightly and gradually tightened his grip on Kang Yuchen’s arms. This caused Kang Yuchen’s expression to become distorted from the pain and he was forced to stand up.

“Deputy City Master, you don’t have to worry about such a small matter today. As long as you don’t do it again in the future, it will be fine.” Xiao Yan withdrew his hand just before he was about to crush Kang Yuchen’s arm and softly laughed.

“Yes! Please rest assured, Ninth Prince, I will definitely keep my distance from the Ximen family and Ghost Doctor Valley in the future.” Kang Yuchen spoke with trepidation, and he couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

He was such a smart person, how could he not know that Xiao Yan was using both kindness and force. This time, he was spared, but in the future, if he stood on the wrong side again, his ending would be even more miserable than Ximen Ran’s!

When Steward Zhou saw this scene, he could not help but feel puzzled in his heart.

It was strange. The Deputy City Master had such a high status. Logically speaking, there was no need for him to be so afraid of the Ninth Prince. However, looking at him now, he was so cowardly that he could not even straighten his back. It was really a huge contrast to his arrogant appearance in the past.

With no one helping Steward Zhou to clear up his doubts, Xiao Yan no longer looked at Kang Yuchen and only asked coldly, “The matter that 1 instructed you to inquire about, have you done it?”

“Of course. Ninth Prince, there is indeed a Dragon-repelling Fruit in our underground city. The owner of the fruit is a businessman in our black market. No one knows his real name. Everyone calls him Lame Lao Chen. When the gathering began, he would open the door for business. Moreover, I also heard that Lao Chen doesn’t want silver. He wants to exchange for something. He requires at least two fourth-grade elixirs.”

“The price is too high.” Xiao Yan coldly said.

According to the normal price, a sixth-grade medicinal herb was a forbidden medicine that was not easy to sell. It was already not cheap to be able to exchange it for a fourth-grade elixir. This Lao Chen actually wanted two elixirs, and this was the base price.

“Your Highness, it’s because the price is high and the Dragon-repelling Fruit is a forbidden medicine that very few people want it. In a while, we can go over directly and pay a high price to take the Dragon-repelling Fruit.” Kang Yuchen quickly said.

Xiao Yan nodded. “Qianqian will definitely accept this price. You wait here. I will go and find Qianqian.”contemporary romance

As he walked in Su Qian’s direction, Xiao Yan saw that Su Qian was brewing medicine in the courtyard, so he went up and told her what Kang Yuchen had told him word for word.

“I’m willing to pay any price to get the Dragon-repelling Fruit.” Su Qian’s worried heart finally relaxed. She turned her head and saw that Xiao Yan was still beside her, so she reminded him, “Your Highness, I’ve just prepared the medicine. It’s time to burn the charcoal, so the smoke is the most choking. Otherwise, Your Highness, you should stay away.”

“I’m fine. I’ll help you.” After saying that, Xiao Yan took the lighter from Su Qian’s hand and started to light it.

Su Qian looked at him in surprise. She couldn’t believe that the pampered Ninth Prince could actually start a fire and burn charcoal.

Obviously, Su Qian was overthinking.

Xiao Yan held a lighter in his jade-like hand and began to burn the charcoal in the furnace. He tried his best to light it up, but ended up with his face covered in black smoke. He choked and coughed for a long time without success..
