A seed the size of a fingertip was lying respectfully on the purple silk. This seed was green as if it was condensed from precious jade gems. When it was exposed to the air, it emitted dazzling splashes of gorgeous light, with an overwhelming spiritual power contained within.

“Bodhi Seed?” Su Qian recognized it at a glance and looked up at Dong Yan in surprise. “How did Your Highness know that I needed this?”

Dong Yan smiled slightly and said unhurriedly, “His Highness will naturally pay attention to Miss Su’s matter.”

“Oh my god, isn’t this Bodhi Seed in Longhu Fortress? Did Your Highness go to Longhu Fortress to help us get the Bodhi Seed? What about the General of the City Guard? Why was there no movement from Longhu Fortress after stealing something?” Ji Wanwan pushed Su Qian’s hand away and asked in surprise.

“I’m not clear either. His Highness personally went to ask for the Bodhi Seed. As for how His Highness convinced the General of the City Guard, I have no idea. It is better to wait until Miss Su sees His Highness the next time and ask him directly.” After Dong Yan finished speaking, he bowed respectfully to Su Qian, “I will take my leave now.”

Su Qian nodded as she watched Dong Yan leave. She looked at the Bodhi Seed in her hand and was worried that she owed someone a favor again. Meanwhile, Ji Wanwan mischievously approached her.

“Qianqian, come one, tell me honestly. What is going on between you and that Your Highness?” Ji Wanwan asked nosily.

“What’s there to say? We’re just friends. I ran into some trouble here and he helped me.” As Su Qian spoke, she kept the Bodhi Seed and turned around to walk towards the sub-branch pavilion.

“Come on, don’t try to deceive me.” She did not believe that things were as simple as Su Qian made them out to be. Ji Wanwan cleared her throat and said, “Qianqian, Your Highness must like you! Otherwise, who would go and provoke the General of the City Guard at Longhu Fortress? I heard that the General of the City Guard is very powerful and is famous for being a miser. Your Highness must have spent a lot of effort to help you obtain the Bodhi Seed. He might have suffered a great grievance!”

“You don’t understand the Ninth Prince. If the General of the City Guard fought with him, the one who would suffer would definitely be the General of the City Guard, not him.” Su Qian understood Xiao Yan’s methods. The General of the City Guard wanted to take advantage of him? That was absolutely impossible.

Who would have thought that Ji Wanwan became even more excited after hearing this? She raised her hand and continued to say excitedly, “That’s great! This way, you won’t be bullied when you follow him in the future! Tsk tsk, 1 knew that our Qianqian was beautiful and kind. How could there not be men chasing after her? Now it seems that this Ninth Prince is a dark horse. Qianqian, you have to seize the opportunity before other women make a move!”

“Whoever wants him can have him. I don’t want him. Xiao Wan, I swear there’s nothing between the Ninth Prince and I.” As she spoke, she returned to her courtyard and raised her hand to block Ji Wanwan at the door. “I’m going back to rest. Otherwise, 1’11 delay the elixir refinement tomorrow.”

Su Qian really couldn’t stand Ji Wanwan’s gossipy look. She blocked Ji Wanwan at the door, quickly turned around, and ran to her room. Then, she slammed the door with a loud bang and sighed in relief.

After safely storing the Bodhi Seed, Su Qian heaved a sigh of relief. She contemplated the process of refining the sixth-grade elixir tomorrow. Then, she changed off her night clothes and lay on the bed, trying to sleep.

Perhaps due to a troubled mind, Su Qian tossed and turned on the bed. She was still in a daze until midnight.

Just as Su Qian was feeling frustrated, the door to her room was suddenly pushed open from the outside..
