Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

Chairman Liu opened the elixir bottle and poured out the elixir. Upon seeing the two elixir patterns inside, he was both surprised and delighted.

Although it doesn't have three pill patterns, it does have two.

"Xiao Ran, thank you so much! Here's a fifth-tier flying beast that I think you'll like. It's yours."

Zhong Ran's eyes lit up. Although it was only a fifth-tier beast, it was still a flying beast!

Everyone knows how rare flying beasts are, especially those that have reached the fifth tier, whose flight capabilities are definitely top-notch.

Although they have flying boats, they can use them to go wherever they want.

But flying boats require a lot of spirit stones to support them, while flying beasts do not.

Why didn't she think of hanging out with the Beast Tamer Guild sooner?

They quickly reached out to take it, afraid that if they were too slow, someone else would change their mind.

"Thank you, I like it very much."

She herself has some skill in controlling beasts, but flying beasts are extremely rare. Even if they did encounter one, with their current strength, they might not be able to conquer a fifth-tier flying beast.

Therefore, the gift given by the Beast Tamer Guild leader truly touched her heart.

When President Teng saw that she liked it, he smiled.

He had already given her spirit stones and spirit medicine, and now he was adding a flying beast as a gift. He didn't want people to think he was taking advantage of Zhong Ran, and he wanted to befriend this girl.

The Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce announced that today's auction would feature Ascending Dragon Pills and Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk, which immediately suggested that these were the items she was offering.

They bought so much that day, and she still had some left, which shows just how lucky she was.

It's best to befriend such people.

President Song didn't say anything, but simply pushed Song Xiaoyan forward in front of him and then tossed a ring to Zhong Ran.

"Thanks, girl."

Zhong Ran glanced at him, reached out and took it. It was full of spirit stones, with two spirit crystals mixed in.

Not bad, much more sensible than the other old guys in the Alchemist Guild.

She originally gave away a few drops of the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk because of the Earth Source Pearl he gifted her.

Now that he has personally delivered spirit stones, there is no need to express gratitude further.

She glanced at Song Xiaoyan again; the girl's aura had become much stronger, having already reached the ninth level of the Golden Core stage.

"From now on, I'm entrusting my granddaughter to you."

If there are spirit stones, Zhong Ran will be much easier to talk to.

"Actually, with your granddaughter's talent, she should be able to get more resources if she stays by your side."

She was working tirelessly to refine and sell pills to secure her own advancement, trying every possible way to raise more resources to break through her cultivation level.

With these young girls around her, she couldn't offer them any resources.

Chairman Song chuckled: "She should have more opportunities to learn and grow by your side, which is better than her being protected and nurtured by me."

Zhong Ran: "Okay, but I've already said that if there's any real danger, I can't even protect myself, let alone guarantee that I can protect her."

President Song nodded. It was rare for the Song family to have a Wind Spirit Body, so he naturally wanted to protect her as she grew up. The protectors had already been arranged.

Seeing this, Zhong Ran said nothing more.

Jin Wuchen uttered a Buddhist chant: "Amitabha!"

Zhong Ran looked over and heard him say with a blush on his face, "Junior Sister, I will obey your orders from now on."

Chairman Jin chuckled: "Xiao Ran, I've had a sumptuous feast prepared at Yipintang. After we eat, let's head over to witness today's auction."

Zhong Ran chuckled twice. Yipintang, huh? She was quite interested in that place; the food there was plentiful and unique, and delicious.

The old woman didn't say anything, but silently followed them outside.

The three presidents looked at her, then at Zhong Ran, and finally just sighed softly.

Zhong Ran asked someone to invite Zhong Zhihong and others to go to Yipintang for dinner.

My parents haven't been to those places yet.

To be honest, while she claims to be poor, she actually has a lot of spirit stones, often in the hundreds of millions of top-grade spirit stones.

As for mid-grade and high-grade spirit stones, she hasn't used them in a long time.

Those spirit stones were hardly enough for her to trade; she gave them all to her parents, brothers, and sisters.

The spirit stones had little effect on her, but they were very effective on Zhong Xiaodan, Zhong Yuanheng, and others.

People like Yun Tianyu and Huang Qiuyin are still using mid-grade spirit stones for cultivation.

However, despite being so wealthy, she never treated her parents to a single meal at Yipintang Restaurant.

It seems that every time I go to a place, I pass through in a hurry, and I rarely have the chance to stroll around, eat, and shop leisurely like this.

Ashamed to say it.

Zhong Zhihong and the others came out quickly; the large group made Zhong Ran feel a little embarrassed.

"President Kim, there are quite a few people, will everything be alright?"

"Haha, nothing."

Chairman Kim knew she had a large group, so he specially booked four tables, ensuring everyone would have enough to eat.

The group walked out in a groaning voice, and soon attracted the attention of the people outside.

After all, it's quite rare to see so many cultivators walking together.

Zhong Ran originally had about twenty people around her, and now with the addition of others, there are even more people.

"Who are those people? Could it be Zhong Ran, the genius?"

"That's her! Don't you recognize her? Look, the girl in the middle in front, that's her."

"Huh, there seem to be a lot of unfamiliar faces around her again. Could they be her new followers?"

"Ahhh, is there any chance I could become a follower too?"

"Give me a break. Do you think just anyone can be a follower? I've heard that the granddaughter of the Alchemist Guild's president, who's always been by his side, is now working for Zhong Ran."

"Really? I heard that Chairman Song dotes on his granddaughter, she's actually following Zhong Ran around like a little follower?"

"What's so special about that? Chairman Kim's grandson has already followed suit. Look at that bald guy."

"Even a genius like that is just a follower? It seems we have no chance."

Many people started talking when they saw them.

"Why are there still so many old men?"

“I’ve heard of that. Those old men are from the Array Master Guild. It’s said that they’ve been helping Zhong Ran since the Northern Region. Now that Zhong Ran and the others are almost as strong as them, they’ve also joined them in their training.”

"Zhong Ran and the others have grown too fast."

"Have you received any news? I heard that Zhong Ran and the others have been listed as the number one prey of the evil and demonic paths."

"Shh! How dare you say such a thing? Aren't you afraid of dying?"

"I heard that too. It's said that both the evil and demonic paths have sent out powerful individuals to hunt them down."

"Please don't let that happen! It's not easy for such a genius to emerge. If he's hunted down, who will be left to uphold justice?"

Zhong Ran paused, turning to look at Chairman Song and Chairman Jin.

The three presidents didn't look too good either. President Jin said calmly, "They're right. The three of you have become their prey."

"By the way, quite a few of them came to today's auction, but they were all hidden among ordinary cultivators. It wouldn't be easy to find out their identities without them making a move."

"You need to be more careful when you're out and about in the future."
