Zuo Le's tone became even more emotional, and her words of gratitude were full of sincerity.

But after hearing this, Xi Fei's face turned a little green.

Is it really fun for a teacher to tease their students?

That was really wrong!

However, the clever teacher Xi Fei immediately came up with a way to make up for it.

Never seen it before? Then just go and see more of it, won't that be enough?

“It’s okay if you haven’t seen them before. Mutants aren’t just monsters, plants are too. There are many mutant plants in this abandoned university. I’ll show you around.”

Seeing Xi Fei boasting, Zuo Le could hardly suppress the corners of her mouth.

Stay calm, you absolutely must stay calm.

"Teacher Xi Fei is a spiritual medicine master, but someone like me..."

"So what if someone is a pharmacist? Even pharmacists need to eat and poop." Xi Fei said nonchalantly.

Before Zuo Le could say anything, Tang Yuan spoke up:

"It's great that Professor Xi Fei is willing to give us guidance, but could you please not be so rude?"

Xi Fei smacked his lips:

"Tsk, the thought that young and beautiful girls like you also have to poop makes me feel that the world is still balanced after all."

Tangyuan simply stopped talking.

"Come on, I'll show you a little something today and give you some pointers."

With a wave of his hand, Xi Fei led Zuo Le and the other two in a search for spiritual herbs, guided by the Spirit-Seeking Elixir.

Besides chicory, they discovered three other herbs, though none were as valuable as chicory.

While instructing them on how to search for herbs, Xi Fei explained the value and usage of these medicines to them, with almost no intention of holding back any information.

However, he made no mention of the spirit-seeking potion emitting pink smoke throughout the entire conversation.

Perhaps it's just as Xi Fei himself said.

The basic knowledge of alchemists can be found in books; as long as you spend money to study, you can always learn it.

The Spirit-Seeking Potion was his exclusive secret recipe, something he truly never shared.

After finding the three herbs, Xi Fei suddenly stopped.

He bent down and lay prone on the ground, his nose twitching twice like a hunting dog:

"There's something good here!"

He lowered his voice, pulled a palm-sized glass jar from his robe, and tossed it to Zuo Le.

"Zuo Le, you're quick, you do it."

"how?"

Zuo Le didn't know what he was going to do, so she could only follow his gaze.

At the end of the corridor in front, in the corner, there was a clump of dark yellow fluff.

Zuo Le couldn't see what it was, but he could tell that it was huddled in a crevice of moss, trembling slightly, like a moth eating something.

"This thing is called the Yellow Velvet Moth. The adult form is terrifying, but this is just the larva. Its wings are made from natural medicinal ingredients and even have a calming effect."

This thing is priced by the gram, and it's expensive. Go catch it, but remember, don't hurt its wings.

Xi Fei lowered his voice, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

Judging from his expression, Zuo Le could tell that this thing was really expensive, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Whose fault is it if we fail?"

"If it fails, it's definitely on your side, right? Do you even need to ask?"

Zuo Le: ? ? ?

"Okay, I see."

If he fails, it's his fault; therefore, he won't fail.

With his gaze fixed on the yellow moth, Zuo Le began to move horizontally without blinking.

The people behind him, including Tangyuan, held their breath, afraid of disturbing him.

Zuo Le also held her breath and made no sound at all during the movement.

But when he got to a position about 4 meters away from the yellow moth, he didn't know if it was because it was too sensitive or because it sensed Zuo Le's presence.

The moth actually stopped eating, raised its head, and shook its rear end.

Although it didn't look at Zuo Le, the insect seemed to sense something was off in the air.

The yellow velvet moth trembled slightly, extending a pair of floating fluorescent antennae as it began to explore the surrounding 2-3 meters.

Zuo Le remained motionless, like a stone.

The yellow moth seemed unaware of him.

Just as it retracted its tentacles, Zuo Le thought everything was alright.

The moth's fluffy yellow wings began to flap, and soon, like a high-frequency trembling dragonfly, Zuo Le, 4 meters away, could feel the wind.

Zuo Le sensed that it was trying to escape, but he didn't know anything about it and didn't dare to make any rash moves.

Until Xi Fei's scream came from behind:

"Quick, grab it! This thing flies really fast!"

Zuo Le dodged and sprang forward, charging straight at the yellow moth, but the little moth's speed was truly astonishing.

With a whoosh, they instantly separated from the charging Zuo Le!

"Oh dear! What a pity." Xi Fei slapped his thigh with a regretful expression.

Knowing the speed of the yellow velvet moth, he felt there was little chance of catching the little creature.

Although he regretted giving up, Zuo Le in front of him remained unmoved.

Zuo Le's gaze remained fixed on the yellow moth.

After taking flight, the other party did not immediately flee, but instead hovered in the air like a dragonfly, seemingly observing their behavior.

Or perhaps, they're mocking us?

"interesting."

Zuo Le straightened up, jumped up again, and reached out to grab the little yellow ball.

But its speed is far faster than most people imagine.

With each movement, it left an afterimage in the air; before Zuo Le's hand even reached its landing point, it had already created distance.

Zuo Le continued to chase after it without hesitation, but each time the yellow moth dodged it.

For a moment, the chase felt like an insect toying with an adult.

"Zuo Le, don't chase after her, it's useless."

"Senior Brother Zuo Le?"

Xi Fei called out from behind, but Zuo Le seemed to be in a daze and remained completely unmoved.

He continued his relentless pursuit until the man and the insect disappeared from the sight of the other three.

When they reached a secluded spot, Zuo Le suddenly stopped, glanced around, and looked up to check the distance between himself and the yellow moth.

"Within 10 meters, that's enough."

The next second, his body turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared from the spot.

The yellow moth paused for a moment, but its strong sense of vigilance made it instantly begin to move at full speed.

Before Zuo Le could put the lid on, the yellow moth flew out of the bottle opening.

Bang!

Zuo Le covered an empty space, but he didn't care at all.

His body, which had been suspended in mid-air, disappeared for the second time. This time, the moment his body reappeared, the bottle opening had already closed.

Bang!

Zuo Le calmly looked at the yellow moth and tapped the lid of the glass jar.

"Teasing me? Running away?"

After easily arresting him, Zuo Le carefully packed the glass bottle.

Xi Fei said this thing is very expensive, so it's probably really expensive.

What is very expensive in the eyes of ordinary people is nothing more than stray dog items in the eyes of a spiritual alchemist.

But it's something very expensive in the eyes of apothecaries.

That value is probably beyond Zuo Le's estimation...

After securing the bottle, Zuo Le climbed out the window, but he suddenly stopped before returning.

There were a few more red flowers nearby, and Zuo Le couldn't resist picking them and keeping them safe.

He now has the idea of trying to create something fake.

However, I forced myself to remain calm.

These things are all medicinal materials, which are clearly different from food. If they are synthesized and become toxic and inedible, then it would be a case of losing more than you gain.

Therefore, before proceeding with the synthesis, it is advisable to learn from Xi Fei.

You should acquire as much knowledge as possible about pharmacology.

Zuo Le did not act rashly.

He silently returned to Xi Fei and the other two, and took out the bottle.

"We've caught him, Teacher Xi Fei."

Xi Fei stared wide-eyed at the bottle containing the yellow moths.

"Holy crap, how did you do that?"

He snatched the bottle from Zuo Le's hand, brought it close to his eyes to examine it closely, and beamed with joy:

"Don't underestimate this little thing, it's worth at least tens of thousands!"

Even though he was somewhat prepared, Zuo Le still couldn't help but slurp his words when he heard the price.

Hundreds of thousands!?

So who owns this...?
