“He’s very strong!”

Blackie and Whitey’s unanimous answer allowed Baili Hongzhuang to be more sure of her conjecture. Di Beichen was at most three years older than her and yet, he possessed such strength. It could be seen that his talent for cultivation is very high.

Even the renowned genius of Fengbo City was incomparable to him and that could only prove that Di Beichen was not as simple as he seemed!

“Forget it, what does that guy have to do with me?” Baili Hongzhuang shrugged her shoulders and turned to walk in the direction of the medicine shop.

Wan Yao Fang was the largest medicine shop in the Imperial City and it had a complete catalog of medicinal ingredients. Basically, all the required medicinal ingredients could be found here.

Baili Hongzhuang smelled the fragrance of the medicinal ingredients the moment she entered and she had immediately identified the few medicinal ingredients she needed.

“Congregate Spirit Grass, Living Energy Fruit, Blood Congealing Grass.”

Baili Hongzhuang revealed a faint smile on the corner of her lips because she was surrounded by a sense of familiarity. In the past, she liked to research medicinal skills the most and would be immersed in it all year round. As such, she found the smells wonderfully familiar right now.

Wan Yao Fang’s shopkeeper, Ji Wenbin, revealed an expression of marvel, when he saw Baili Hongzhuang identifying the various medicinal ingredients solely based on their fragrance and moreover, with her eyes closed!

“Miss, you’re very good. The medicinal ingredients you’ve identified are all correct!” Ji Wenbin commended her.

He had been working in the medicine shop all year round and only picked up the skill of identifying medicinal ingredients based on their fragrance after a long period of time. However, that young lady was probably only fifteen years old and she had accomplished it. How could he not be surprised?

Baili Hongzhuang slightly smiled. “You’ve overpraised me.”

“I wonder how you are so familiar with medicinal ingredients at such a young age?”

Ji Wenbin curiously sized up Baili Hongzhuang. He had always been fond of medicinal ingredients and upon meeting Baili Hongzhuang, who was well versed in it, he felt as if they had hit it off at the first meeting.

When she saw Ji Wenbin’s excited appearance, Baili Hongzhuang knew that the shopkeeper was someone who had a deep love for pharmacology. His questioning was just due to his curiosity.

“I have studied pharmacology from a young age and so, I am rather knowledgeable about it,” Baili Hongzhuang said as she faintly smiled.

“So that’s to say, you are a physician?”

Baili Hongzhuang slightly nodded and affirmed Ji Wenbin’s guess.

In her previous life, several of her elders also liked to study pharmacology and so, she had also hung out among the piles of medicinal ingredients. Subsequently, she obtained many teachings from several elders and thus, became known as an imperial physician at a young age.

She had always been rather confident of her medicinal skills.

The marvel in Ji Wenbin’s eyes intensified. This young lady was already a physician at such a young age and her future achievements would definitely be astounding.

“Miss, what are you thinking of buying?” Seeing Baili Hongzhuang looking at the medicinal ingredients at the counter, Ji Wenbin said, “My Wan Yao Fang has all types of medicinal ingredients and we almost have everything here.”

Baili Hongzhuang revealed a shallow smile. When she looked at the medicinal ingredients along with the price tag, her eyes were secretly filled with doubts.

Why is the price so unreasonable? Baili Hongzhuang furrowed her brows but did not say her thoughts out loud.

Since Wan Ji Fang had clearly marked the prices, she doubted that it would be wrong. Could it be that the market price of the medicinal ingredients in the current times and the past had such a great disparity?

White Dew Grass and Henbane were clearly the cheapest medicinal ingredients in the past and yet, the current prices had increased by tenfold. Instead, some medicinal ingredients that were pricier in the past, were unusually cheap here. This was all too strange.

All of a sudden, Baili Hongzhuang’s line of sight stopped at a particular medicinal ingredient. It was green in color and sparkled with white light which was similar to the stars. This was the Star Spirit Grass!
