"Mister." The shopkeeper and all the assistants in the hall immediately took a step back, lowered their heads, and bowed their bodies when they saw who had come. Their faces were filled with great reverence and respect for this man.
The shopkeeper wasn't even this respectful towards Su Ying.
Yun Qingyan started to think about this in her heart.
The staff called him 'Mister' as a polite form of address, but didn't say Mister who. Meaning this person didn't want others to know who he was.
Yun Qingyan suddenly remembered a rumor about how the real owner of Hundred Herb Hall was actually a mysterious power. There were traces of Hundred Herb Hall throughout almost every nation in the Tianyuan Continent, and the Beian Nation was just part of that huge and mysterious power.
She wondered if this man had something to do with that mysterious power. She looked up at the person coming her way.
He was in a green coat. The dark color and bamboo print made him look elegant and clean.
His black hair was tied with an exquisite and translucent white pin, and he had no other accessories. Even so, he looked extremely stylish.
"I would like to apologize to you for how my shopkeeper has offended you." The man bowed gently, and everything he did was as elegant and smooth as the clouds in the sky and flowing water.
"Mister!" The shopkeeper was in deep shock and his face instantly paled.
How could Mister end up apologizing to someone else because of a mistake that he made? The shopkeeper felt that he really deserved to die.
In front of this man, Yun Qingyan also put aside the disguise she had on earlier.
She gently threw the Recording Crystal up and down in her hands and the fake sweetness on her face was gone. Her eyes became more alive and seemed slightly sinister as she blinked, "Anything else?"
The man in green raised his fine eyebrows slightly. "I will provide all the herbs that you want at double the amount, and you will not need to pay for any of it."
"Anything else?" Yun Qingyan smiled faintly to reveal those two canines. A sly glint shone in her black eyes. "Time is money, you know. Your shopkeeper has wasted so much of my time…"
She didn't finish her sentence, but everybody knew what she was driving at.
This girl was really trying to ask for as much as she could.
The shopkeeper's face was all red now. He swore to God that if he was given another chance, he would never have offended this little devil.
However, the man in green wasn't angry. He smiled faintly and raised his right hand as gently as the spring breeze blowing against her face.
A ball of green light appeared in his hand, and a tremendous amount of life energy flowed from it. All the herbs in Hundred Herb Hall trembled as the strong fragrance of herbs filled the air.
Even Yun Qingyan got a shock.
What a dense amount of life energy.
She could even feel the joy coming from the Bitter Sea Green Lotus within her body.
"With this plaque, you can get a 30% discount on everything sold in Hundred Herb Hall that's not put up for auction."
The man's gentle jade-like voice resounded once more. It was as clear and cold as jade, and so indescribably wonderful to listen to.
A translucent green plaque was sent right into Yun Qingyan's hands by a stream of green air.
This man could lift a plaque to the exact height and distance he wanted without hurting anyone in the process. That meant that this man had reached a very frightening stage in controlling his own strength.
Yun Qingyan narrowed her eyes but happily accepted the plaque anyway.
The plaque seemed like jade but wasn't. It seemed like wood but it wasn't either. Regardless, it gave off a lot of life energy.
Her pink lips curled upwards and Yun Qingyan smiled brightly, "Since the hall is being so generous, then, of course, I have to accept it so as not to be rude."
The shopkeeper and his assistants almost choked.
She had clearly coerced them into this but was now pretending to be grateful to them.
Yun Qingyan raised her right hand and shot a yellow crystal towards the man in green. "There, you can have the crystal."
"Miss Yun, thank you for not holding it against us." The man in green smiled. His smile was like the sky clearing up after the rain and shone so brightly.
"Oh, no need to thank me. There's nothing really good about me except that I'm very kind and bighearted." Yun Qingyan immediately threw the herbs that the shop assistant prepared for her into her storage ring and grinned to reveal eight very pretty pearly whites, and smiled as 'humbly' as she could.
The shopkeeper felt his face twitch. Where was this girl's shame? Where was it? WHERE?!
He had never seen anyone more shameless than her.
