My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

That day, the three groups that had formed an alliance didn’t gain much.
After entering the remote mountain, there were also many Sword Masters looking for Demonic Beasts everywhere, and the Tier 6 Demonic Beasts that appeared nearby were practically all killed.

Ji Yu’s group had already set off before dawn, competing around, hunting for Tier 6 Demonic Beasts between the two cities and their ranks jumped quickly.

When they saw that Lou Mu Yan’s team’s points increased very slowly, they gloatingly guessed that Luo Ye and the others were dragged down Lou Mu Yan and her team, and secretly cursed ‘serves you right’.

As night fell, the Sword Masters flocked to the city ahead of them.
This was the second largest city, closest to the central city.
It had a much wider area and towering walls, and was a little more solemn than the previous city.

During the day, Luo Ye and the others basically didn’t do much, so they were still rather energetic.
After tidying up the room, they went to a restaurant in the city for dinner together.

When a Sword Master reached Sword King cultivation base, inedia1 was possible, so eating was just a habit or to just feel the atmosphere.

Because of the presence of Luo Ye’s team, although it was crowded in the restaurant, but they were able to book a quiet private room.

“Lou Mu Yan, these special dishes of the Stream Reflection Restaurant can only be eaten in the three big cities in the competition space, have a try.” Luo Li picked up some food and placed it in Lou Mu Yan’s bowl, his eyes staring at her brightly, as if asking her for praise.

Lou Mu Yan lowered her head and took a bite, smiled and said: “It does taste pretty good.
This dish should be expensive right?”

“How do you know this dish is expensive?” He’lian Lie asked with a smile.

These special dishes of Stream Reflection Restaurant weren’t for sale to the public.
Only those who could book a private room could order them and it depended on luck as well as it was limited daily.

Lou Mu Yan came from the small kingdom of Yan’zhou, so she naturally wouldn’t be able to book a private room, and it didn’t look like she had eaten it either.
He was very curious about how she guessed the price.

“These dishes are all cooked with Tier 6 Demonic Beast meat and have added a lot of Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Fruits for taste.
After eating, not only is the taste good, but there is a heat flow with Elemental Energy lingering in the meridians.
It’s a good thing to replenish your physical strength with.”

Lou Mu Yan tasted a few casually and knew exactly what Spiritual Fruits and Spiritual Herbs were added to the dish, but she also noted down Stream Reflection Restaurant.

Back when she in the Ye Clan in Luo’xi City, Ye Qing Han and the others had introduced her to Stream Reflection Restaurant’s strength, but she didn’t expect it to reach this level.

She put her chopsticks down and was silent for a moment.

“What are you thinking about?” Luo Li saw that she didn’t seem to be reminiscing the taste of the dishes.

“I suddenly remembered a few friends and I wonder how they are in this competition space.” Lou Mu Yan raised her eyes and said with a light smile.

“Friend? Male?” Luo Li blurted out.

Lou Mu Yan nodded: “Mm.”

In saying that, she realised that she didn’t really know many female friends.
Those she had a good relationship with was only Ye Qing Le, and she couldn’t help but sigh that her relationship with women just wasn’t good.

Luo Li’s long and narrow eyes flickered, then he changed the topic, “It seems that we have to leave the city early tomorrow, otherwise the Demonic Beasts would all be snatched by them.”

“You won’t earn any points if you go out of the city during the day, why don’t we just travel at night?” Lou Mu Yan suggested enthusiastically.

If they wanted to obtain, then they naturally had to pay with something.
It wasn’t easy to advance into the top ten.
Now, in order to earn points quickly, they could only take the night road and find Beast Tides to kill.

“The night road here isn’t easy to travel.
Even a small Beast Tide is difficult to deal with, basically composed of Tier 6 Demonic Beasts.” He’lian lie also wanted to earn points, but he remained rational.

It wasn’t difficult for their group to deal with less than a hundred Tier 6 Demonic Beasts, but if they encountered three or four hundred Tier 6 Demonic Beasts, they definitely could only run for their lives.

Lou Mu Yan tapped the table lightly with her finger, “I have a way to deal with small and medium-sized Beast Tides.
Large Beast Tides can be avoided, so it’s worth taking a little risk.”

He’lian Lie pressed his lips together tightly when he heard her say that, pondering.
If he continued like this, he would fall out of the top hundred and it would become uncertain if he could enter into the next round of the competition.
If it were such a risk, he could try it.

He didn’t make an immediate decision but looked up at Luo Ye.

Luo Ye was sitting up straight.
Regardless of how much he restrained his noble temperament, he couldn’t conceal his magnificence.
He took a sip from his teacup and said, “I agree to take the risk.”

His current ranking was just at fifteenth, which was far from the target he had set.
He originally planned to take the risk of finding Tier 7 Demonic Beasts to kill and earn points once he arrived at the central area, but now with Lou Mu Yan’s proposal, it should be less risky.

Luo Ye’s group had seen Lou Mu Yan and the several others block a Beast Tide with their own eyes, so they had no doubts about her words.

“Sure.
Let’s go after eating.” He’lian Lie’s lips rose into an arc, dashing and amorous.

Lou Mu Yan got up and said: “I want to go to the pill stores in the city to buy some Spiritual Herbs.
Do you want to go together, or we’ll gather at the city gate later?”

“Let’s go together.” Luo Li immediately stood up.

The others didn’t have much interest in eating either, so they got up together to accompany her to buy Spiritual Herbs.

After arriving at the largest pill store in the city, Lou Mu Yan used Luo Li’s name and got the shopkeeper to take out all the Spiritual Herbs that they sold.

The precious high-grade Spiritual Herbs in the store could only be bought by distinguished clans or people from the royal families from large kingdoms.

She selected here and there, then chose nine tenths of the Spiritual Herbs, “I want all of these.
Calculate the price.”

The shopkeeper was startled when he saw it.
He had been stationed in this pill store for three competitions and this was the first time he had encountered such a customer.

“Sure, Young Miss please wait.”

The shopkeeper picked up the list and checked them one by one.
On the way, he gave a waiter in the store an obscure look, asking him to report to Elder Xiao.

“Lou Mu Yan, you’re not sick are you?” He’lian Lie was really shocked by this uninhibited behaviour.

This woman must have gone crazy right? Why did she buy so many Spiritual Herbs? She didn’t think of taking it out for resale did she?

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him.
“You’re the one that’s sick.”

“You wouldn’t be thinking to buy all these Spiritual Herbs then resell them outside are you?” Most of the Spiritual Herbs here only grew in this space, and it was hard to find them outside.

In fact, some people did think about reselling it long ago, but the people in the pill stores weren’t stupid either.
If there was a price difference, wouldn’t they make the money themselves, so how could they allow the Sword Masters to catch onto this loophole and make a profit.
Dream on.

“Let me tell you, the price of the Spiritual Herbs here is higher than outside.
If you want to resell it outside, don’t waste your energy.” He’lian Lie reminded.

Lou Mu Yan glanced at him, “Do you think I’m that bored?”

She wasn’t a fool.
The Pill Tower wouldn’t allow reselling to happen, and she didn’t have much energy to do it either.

If she were short of money, she could just sell a few pills, what’s the point in reselling.
It’d be a waste of time.

The reason why she bought the Spiritual Herbs in the competition space was because she had to refine a large number of pills for the Lou Clan after returning, for future use.

Moreover, the variety of Spiritual Herbs here was complete.
If she went out to buy it in a store outside, she wouldn’t be able to buy it all in one place, and she might not even be able to find some Spiritual Herbs.
Even if it were a little more expensive now, it saved time and trouble.

Seeing her displeased, He’lian Lie’s lips twitched.
If she wasn’t bored to buy so many Spiritual Herbs, then what was it?

“Young Miss, the total price of the Spiritual Herbs you want to buy has been calculated.
The total is twenty-eight million purple-gold coins.” The shopkeeper of the pill store handed a price list to Lou Mu Yan and said with a smile.

Hearing the number, Lou Mu Yan’s brows furrowed.
She only had less than one million purple-gold coins on her, not enough even for change.

The more high-level the Spiritual Herbs were, the more expensive it was, but it wasn’t a problem if she could buy it for money, so she naturally wouldn’t feel distressed spending so much.

“Shopkeeper, I don’t have so many purple-gold coins with me right now.
Can I exchange it with pills?” Lou Mu Yan thought about it, then asked with a smile.

Before the shopkeeper could even speak, there was a laugh of ridicule coming from behind.

1inedia, in this story is when people don’t need to eat food to survive.
(I think I forgot to make a note the last time/s I mentioned it).
It’s a real thing you can search up and it’s considered a pseudoscience where people believe they don’t need to eat food and water to survive.
