Even Yun Yuhan, who had a cold expression and a temperament as sharp as a blade, looked up when he heard Yan Xi’s words.

Some of the people behind Yun Yuhan also looked surprised.

Yan Xi’s attitude was shocking.

Even in the academy, Ji San was famous for his sharp tongue. Moreover, he never thought before he spoke, and did not know how venomous his words were. He did not realize that even the academy’s teachers were often angered to the point of speechlessness.

However, Ji San was from a good family, and he was also very powerful. Despite offending so many people everywhere, he was still alive and kicking.

They had thought that Yan Xi would cry, be angry, or feel ashamed after being provoked by Ji San. However, they had never expected her to be this calm and still have the heart to make money.

“Your Highness, your fiancée seems to be different from the rumors,” a young man clad in the Imperial College’s uniform whispered.

The girl next to him glanced at him with dissatisfaction—as if dissatisfied with his special treatment of Yan Xi. “The rumors just left out that she’s shameless! She’s not even worthy of carrying His Highness’s shoes!”

Even in the Imperial College, Yun Yuhan was one of the most influential people. Most of the people in his team were born in the Longyuan Empire and were extremely ambitious.

The Longyuan Empire had a vast territory and was the most powerful country in the continent. Whether it was in terms of talented cultivators or resources, it was several times more abundant than the other countries.

The Muyun Kingdom was only one out of the thousands of vassal states of the Longyuan Empire. Its territory was only the size of a county in the empire.

In the five-year court meeting, the Muyun Kingdom’s monarch was not even able to see the face of the Longyuan Empire’s monarch!

The Longyuan Empire was powerful and unrivaled. No one dared to offend them, and all the other countries submitted to them. Hence, the people of the Longyuan Empire also regarded the people of the vassal states as bumpkins. They were proud to be born in the Longyuan Empire and were extremely xenophobic.

Only the best of the best in these vassal states could earn their respect.

And Yun Yuhan was the most prolific genius in the past hundred years!

Although these uniformed young men and women stood upright and rarely spoke, the way they looked at the Yun family revealed a kind of arrogance and disdain in their bones.

Ji San’s beautiful amber eyes were wide open in confusion, the feather on his ear swaying. “How much is it for a look?”

Yan Xi said slowly, “Ten thousand gold coins, going once.”

Gasps rang out all around.

Most of the Yan family’s disciples only received five or six silver coins per month, and one gold coin was equivalent to one hundred silver coins.

However, the people beside Yun Yuhan did not reveal the same expression as the others. They only frowned. Ten thousand gold coins was not a lot to them, but they could see that Yan Xi was obviously extorting people!

Duanmu Rou could not help but say gently, “Xixi, ten thousand gold coins is a huge sum of money for the Yan family, right? Your monthly stipend is only five or six silver coins, yet you’re asking for ten thousand gold coins. Even if Young Master Ji San is rich, you can’t extort him on purpose. The Yan family is upright. Although you can’t cultivate, as a disciple of the Yan family, you shouldn’t use such underhanded means to ruin the Yan family’s reputation.”

After she finished criticizing Yan Xi, she looked at Ji San with her watery eyes. “Young Master Ji San, my cousin is insensible. Please don’t be angry with her.”

Hearing her faux concern again, a trace of impatience flashed through Yan Xi’s dark eyes.

Yan Xi’s eyes narrowed. “Who’s your cousin? Don’t randomly claim to be relatives.”

Duanmu Rou felt wronged. “Yan Xi, are you still angry that I blamed you for stealing my ice jade yesterday? That ice jade was given to me by His Highness the Holy Son to dispel the fire poison. If you want it, I can part with it. I just didn’t expect you to use such a despicable method to get your hands on it… I couldn’t help but reprimand you in a moment of anger. In a few days, it will be your engagement. In the future, you will not only represent the Yan family, but you will represent the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace as well. The Cloud Top Heavenly Palace’s rules are very strict. How can you be the Holy Son’s fiancée with your current conduct?”

As expected, many of the Imperial College students behind her looked at her in disgust.

She was ugly, mute, could not cultivate, and was a thief as well. How could she be worthy of Yun Yuhan?

Yan Xi ignored their gazes and looked at Duanmu Rou with her dark eyes. There was no sense of shame on her face. Instead, she looked disdainful. “Has anyone ever said that you are really noisy?”

Duanmu Rou did not expect this. She was stunned for a moment. When she reacted and was about to adjust her aggrieved expression, Ji San’s sharp voice rang out.

“Right? I also think she’s very noisy. She’s like a sh*t-stirrer, wanting to interfere in everything.” Ji San clicked his tongue.

Duanmu Rou’s expression turned ugly. She felt a little embarrassed.

She turned to Yun Yuhan for help, but he was looking straight ahead with an indifferent expression. He did not pay her any attention.

Duanmu Rou’s fingers dug into her palm. “Young Master Ji San, I’m only doing this out of goodwill.”

“Stop being a hypocrite. It’s none of your business,” Ji San said, putting his hands behind his head and smiling. “Don’t use your little tricks on me. I’m not someone you can manipulate.”

Ji San seemed to be a carefree person, but he was actually very sharp. His sixth sense was extremely strong, and he could sense the true intentions of others.

At the very least, Duanmu Rou’s body exuded a hypocritical aura that he hated.

It was obvious she wanted to use him in her little scheme of embarrassing Yan Xi!

Duanmu Rou’s face was so red that it looked like a ripe tomato.

She did not understand why he still hated her so much even though she kept trying to get into his good graces.

Fine! Since that was the case, she would just let him lose all his money!

Ji San did not even look at her. He shoved a hand in his pocket and took out a red, diamond-shaped crystal. He handed it to Yan Xi and said, “I don’t have ten thousand gold coins. Is this okay? One look, okay? I’ll only take one look!”

He was just too curious. How ugly could Yun Yuhan’s fiancée be?!

Yan Xi glanced at the red, diamond-shaped crystal.

Even without holding it in her hand, Yan Xi could feel its surging power. A burning flame seemed to be exuding through the crystal.

Not too far away, the Imperial College students, who had been calm when they heard the price Yan Xi had demanded, were all shocked when they saw the red diamond-shaped crystal!
