"Elder Han, I've caused you to spend money."
Elder Hao said with some embarrassment.
Han Feng waved his hand nonchalantly. "Elder Hao, please help me see if the medicine repository has these few medicinal ingredients."
Elder Hao took the list and looked at it.
"Seventh-tier Earth Origin Grass, a seventh-tier water-attribute monster core... Elder Han, are you going to refine a seventh-grade pill?"
Han Feng nodded.
Elder Hao exclaimed in surprise, then marked the ingredients that were on the list.
"Elder Han, we do have the seventh-tier Earth Origin Grass here, but as for the seventh-tier water-attribute monster core..."
"It's alright. Just list what you have for me, Elder Hao."
Han Feng was already mentally prepared.
Seeing this, Elder Hao did not delay and listed the locations of the existing ingredients for Han Feng.
"Elder Han, you can just follow the location markers on the list and go to the upper floors to retrieve them. I'll estimate the price here."
"Good."
Han Feng took the list and stepped onto the floating platform.
Zi Yan, who was eating pills in the corner, blinked her eyes. While Elder Hao was calculating the price, she turned and disappeared into the void, arriving by Han Feng's side.
Seeing Zi Yan emerge skillfully from the void, Han Feng's pupils shrank slightly.
This kind of spatial ability, could she be...
"Uncle, what ingredients are you looking for?"
Zi Yan took the initiative to come over and get close.
Han Feng wanted to see what she was up to, so he handed her the list.
Zi Yan quickly scanned it a few times, then her body directly entered the void. In less than half a minute, all the ingredients Han Feng needed were in Zi Yan's hands.
Zi Yan came before Han Feng, holding a large pile of medicinal ingredients, and dumped them all into his arms with a clatter.
Han Feng was dumbfounded, his gaze towards Zi Yan becoming a bit suspicious.
"Little girl, what kind of magical beast is your true form?"
Zi Yan had a very good impression of Han Feng, so she answered directly, "I don't know. That's why I have to eat more and grow up quickly, then I'll know what I am."
Having personally seen a Dou Spirit like Zi Yan possess such masterful spatial abilities, a guess had already formed in Han Feng's mind.
An Ancient Void Dragon!
"How did you transform into a human? Can't you change back?" Han Feng asked as he stored the ingredients.
Zi Yan shook her head dejectedly.
"I can't! I accidentally ate a seventh-tier Shape-shifting Grass, and now I can only be like this."
"Hey, Uncle, you're an alchemist, right? Can you help me recover?" Zi Yan suddenly asked.
Han Feng's expression froze. What was this situation? Another child consultation?
"I can take a look for you, but..."
"But what?" Zi Yan asked anxiously.
"But you can't just steal ingredients from the repository anymore. If you want them, you can go find them yourself, or apply for an exchange."
Hearing this, Zi Yan pouted, looking conflicted.
"If you want snacks in the future, you can come to me. Pills not only have more energy and are digested faster, but they also taste better, right?"
Han Feng's persuasion hit Zi Yan right where she needed it. She felt it made a lot of sense and nodded. "Alright, Uncle, I promise you."
Han Feng smiled and pressed the suspension button. The floating platform began to descend.
Zi Yan quietly followed by Han Feng's side, thinking that this uncle was quite nice.
Nom.
She ate another pill, shook the bottle, and laughed happily.
It was the first time she had eaten something so delicious!
In the future, she wouldn't chew on raw herbs anymore. She would let Uncle refine them into pills for her to eat.
"Have you never eaten pills before?" Han Feng asked as the platform descended.
Zi Yan shook her head. "Old man Su said that pills are very precious and can't be taken casually."
So medicinal ingredients were fine?
Han Feng smiled.
After the platform reached the first floor, Han Feng came to Elder Hao's desk.
Elder Hao glared at Zi Yan, who was hiding behind Han Feng, and then showed Han Feng the calculated price.
"Elder Han, the Inner Academy accepts bartering. Why don't you refine a sixth-grade pill, and all these ingredients will be yours."
"Alright. But what sixth-grade pill should I refine?"
Elder Hao was already prepared. It could be said that he was just waiting for Han Feng to say this.
"This, the Six Jia Strength Recovery Pill. Sixth-grade, low-level, a recovery-type pill. At the same time, it can increase the body's strength and recovery speed."
"Mm, I can refine it. Just let me know when the ingredients are ready."
"They're already ready!"
Elder Hao was one step ahead of the other, not giving Han Feng a chance to react. He directly took out a storage ring and placed it on the table.
"There are three portions of ingredients inside. Elder Han only needs to refine one pill, and the rest will be an additional reward. How about it?"
Elder Hao also knew that this deal was a bit of an advantage for Han Feng, so he offered another benefit.
"Alright," Han Feng nodded, not refusing.
"By the way, Elder Han, I remember that there seems to be a seventh-tier water-attribute monster core in the Library Pavilion, but that's not under my management. You'll have to talk to Great Elder Su Qian."
"The Library Pavilion?"
Han Feng was a little puzzled. Didn't that name sound like a place for storing books?
"Haha, Elder Han, you've just arrived, so you might not be very familiar. This Library Pavilion is the real treasure vault of my Jia Nan Academy."
Some valuable and easy-to-store items were all placed in the Library Pavilion for the outstanding new students of each session to choose from.
To be able to persist in such an act could definitely be called generous.
"Good, I'll go and ask Elder Su Qian right now."
Han Feng took his leave, and Zi Yan also followed behind him.
"I'm going to see Elder Su. Are you still following?"
"What's wrong?"
"You're not afraid of him?"
"I'm afraid of him?"
Zi Yan's voice rose several degrees.
Then she said in a small voice, "I'm afraid you'll run off, and then no one will refine medicine for me."
Han Feng smiled. "There should be quite a few alchemists in the Inner Academy, right? Have you never thought of asking them to refine pills before?"
"They're all afraid of me, and I'm too lazy to look for them!" Zi Yan said arrogantly. "And their pills are definitely not as delicious as yours."
"I can tell just by smelling them."
The nose of an Ancient Void Dragon is quite sensitive.
Han Feng muttered to himself.
Arriving at Elder Su Qian's courtyard, Han Feng knocked on the door.
"Elder Han, Zi Yan!"
"Why are you two together?"
Su Qian was still thinking of finding an opportunity to introduce Zi Yan to the female members of Han Feng's family when he had free time.
He hadn't expected the two of them to meet directly.
"I just saw Zi Yan at the medicine management repository."
"Hmph, stealing herbs again."
Su Qian glared at Zi Yan with annoyance. In the next moment, a flash of light appeared before his eyes, and a tuft of his white beard fell off.
"Ouch!"
Caught off guard, Su Qian had a few more strands of his beard pulled out by the little girl.
Zi Yan grinned like a little thief and ran off with a handful of beard.
"I'm going to be made bald by her sooner or later!" Su Qian cursed resentfully.
Han Feng maintained a polite smile and explained his purpose to Su Qian.
"A seventh-tier water-attribute monster core?"
Su Qian nodded.
"The Library Pavilion does indeed have this item. However, whether you can get it still depends on the thoughts of the two guardians. How about this, I'll take you there."
Just in time to let you see the two guardians of the academy, and see how powerful the academy's current peak combat strength is!
