The Destiny Villain Starting from Battle Through the Heavens

"Alright! Stop pretending. Didn't you brag to me last time that you finally managed to get a small bottle of Ice Spirit Spring water from someone?"

Otto revealed a somewhat malicious smile and exposed Gutt's lie in front of everyone.

"Get out! You old bastard, don't ever come here again!"

Having his secret exposed by Otto, Gutt couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry.

"Senior Gutt, rest assured, I will not take your Ice Spirit Spring for nothing. I can exchange it with you using these spiritual herbs."

As soon as Nalan Sheng finished speaking, he reached out and touched his storage ring, and dozens of jade boxes appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Each of those jade boxes contained a spiritual herb, which was the very herb that Nalan Sheng had picked in the Douwang Cave.

"Purple-blue leaves, white ginseng fruit, snow lotus seeds... Ouch!!!"

When Gutt and Otto saw what the medicinal herbs in those jade boxes looked like, they both gasped in shock.

These spiritual herbs are mostly high-grade herbs that can be used to refine fourth- or fifth-grade pills, and some of them are even rarer than the Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

Let alone Nalan Sheng being just a mere Dou Zhe, even many Dou Wangs wouldn't be able to produce so many precious spiritual herbs.

"Senior Gu Te, if you are willing to hand over the Ice Spirit Cold Spring to me, I can let you choose any one of these spiritual herbs. What do you think?"

"this……"

Looking at those extremely rare medicinal herbs, Gut hesitated for only a moment before nodding vigorously and saying, "Alright, I'll trade with you!"

Soon, Gu Te took out his treasured Ice Spirit Cold Spring, followed by a spiritual herb that was even rarer than the Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

Hearing the system notification in his ear, Nalan Sheng's smile grew even brighter.

"Young friend, young friend, don't rush to put them away!"

Just as Nalan Sheng was about to put away the jade box on the ground, Gu Te suddenly spoke up to stop him, his face full of a fawning smile, "I have many other valuable treasures here. I'd like to use those treasures to exchange for some spiritual herbs with you. Why don't you take a look at my collection first?"

"OK!"

Upon hearing this, Nalan Sheng smiled and nodded, saying, "If there is any treasure that I fancy, I can exchange these spiritual herbs for it."

In fact, Nalan Sheng took out so many spiritual herbs in public because he wanted to use them to exchange for some treasures with Gutt and Otto.

After all, Nalan Sheng isn't even an alchemist now, so keeping these high-grade spiritual herbs would be pointless. It would be better to exchange them for some treasures that are useful to him.

For example, profound-level cultivation techniques and combat skills, or insights into alchemy and pill formulas.

It must be said that Gu Te's collection is indeed very rich, even surpassing that of many Battle Kings.

After some haggling, Nalan Sheng traded more than ten high-grade spiritual herbs for a third-grade alchemist's manual, more than ten common pill recipes, several Xuan-level combat skills, a bunch of poison-attribute materials, and two fifth-grade magic cores from Gu Te.

As for the remaining high-grade spiritual herbs, although they were all valuable, Gu Te already had the same herbs in his treasure vault, so there was no need to collect a second batch.

Therefore, the remaining high-grade spiritual herbs were all taken back into Nalan Sheng's storage ring.

"Young friend Nalan, if you ever have anything good next time, remember to come find me. I promise you won't be disappointed."

After exchanging those high-grade elixirs with Nalan Sheng, Gutt's enthusiasm for him only increased, and he personally saw him and Otto out the door.

It's no wonder that Guter was so enthusiastic, because he felt that he had really gotten a great deal in this transaction.

Although Nalan Sheng took a lot of treasures from him, things like alchemy tips and Xuan-rank combat skills can be copied infinitely, so it didn't cause Gu Te much loss.

What Gutt really lost were just two fifth-tier magic cores and a bunch of poisonous materials!

"Don't worry, Senior Gutt. If I ever need to sell any treasures in the future, I will give you my first choice."

Nalan Sheng also felt that he had made a great deal, because ordinary alchemists would never be willing to sell things like alchemist's insights and pill formulas.

Only an oddball like Gutt would sell his alchemy insights and pill formulas for high-grade spiritual medicines that he himself has no use for.

"Then it's settled!"

Upon hearing this, Gutt immediately smiled with satisfaction, then eagerly closed the door and went back to admire his newly acquired treasured elixir.

"This guy..."

Otto couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.

"Thank you for your help today, Otto-senpai."

Nalan Shengchao Otto cupped his hands and said, "If you and Chairman Frank ever arrive in the capital in the future, please be sure to send someone to inform me, so that I can extend my hospitality as a host."

"Young friend Nalan, you're too kind."

Otto smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I'm just introducing you to Gutt. If you can get what you want from that guy, that's your own skill."

"No matter what you say, senior, I will remember this favor."

Nalan Sheng had only spoken halfway when he suddenly changed the subject, saying, "It's a pity that I have urgent business to attend to back in the capital, otherwise I should really host a banquet and invite you and Chairman Frank to have a good drink together."

"I appreciate your kind intentions, young friend. However, since you have urgent business to attend to, you should return first. Don't let it interfere with your important matters."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Nalan Sheng first bowed to Otto, and then led Little Fairy Doctor toward the flying transport company.

After passing through several unfamiliar and bustling streets, Nalan Sheng and his companions arrived at a spacious square.

At this moment, in the center of the square, there were more than a dozen enormous creatures, all of them giant birds with brown feathers all over their bodies and more than ten feet long.

These giant birds are not magical beasts, but a type of bird called the Thick-winged Bird.

Although the flight speed of the Thick-winged Bird cannot compare with that of a first-tier flying magical beast, it has extremely strong endurance and a docile nature, making it easy for humans to tame.

Unfortunately, the number of Thick-winged Birds is small, so usually only the Empire has the strength to form such flying transport fleets.

Normally, these thick-winged birds would serve as flying vehicles, helping to transport passengers between major cities and earn enough bird food for themselves.

During times of war, these thick-winged birds would be forcibly conscripted by the empire to help transport various war supplies.

Beside those thick-winged birds, there were lines of people, each holding a bird ticket, queuing up in an orderly fashion to have their tickets checked.

Upon seeing this scene, Nalan Sheng couldn't help but recall the image of rushing to catch a plane in his previous life, and a somewhat nostalgic expression appeared on his face.

Coming to his senses, Nalan Sheng hurriedly led Little Fairy Doctor to the ticket booth in the corner of the square and bought two bird tickets.
