The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss - Chapter 345

Chapter 345: 345

They were very quick with their actions, so they did not attract anyone’s attention . Shen Yanxiao had also been very conservative with the number of ingredients that she had taken so that it would not arouse anyone’s suspicion . When she deemed that she had gotten enough, they immediately left the storage room .

 The guards on shift did not even notice that someone had trespassed into the medicine storage room . However, a few hundred stalks of medicinal ingredients had been taken without anyone’s notice . Compared to the tens of thousands of precious ingredients in the storage room, the few hundred that Shen Yanxiao had swiped were quite negligible .

Shen Yanxiao had managed to check an item off her list of tasks once she got the medicinal ingredients . She had relied on the Saint Laurent Academy’s large medicine storage room to get her hands on more than half the ingredients for the Blood Banquet Potion . She would just have to continue in search of the other twenty-plus medicinal ingredients .

 Anyway, she had more important things to handle before that .

 The Cave Wolves Mercenary Groups’ invitation was like a pie that fell from the skies . When she returned to the dormitory, she laid on the bed and tried to calm her mind so that she could enter her spiritual consciousness for a discussion with Xiu .

Shen Yanxiao sighed when she saw Xiu’s ice-cold and yet bewitching appearance .

“Xiu, what do you think about that mission?”

 Xiu’s captivating golden eyes narrowed before he said, “There are two possibilities . One, the client knows nothing about the real strength of the Phoenix . Second, they hid that information deliberately so that they can use the mercenaries to capture the beast . However, from the look of things, scenario one is not very likely . Since they know the location of the beast, we can assume that they have exchanged blows with it . They may already know its real strength . ”

 Shen Yanxiao nodded and said, “I, too, think that the possibility of the second scenario is higher . If the Phoenix is comparable to a mythical beast, then those mercenary groups would never stand a chance . Those at advanced-level might be able to deal some light damage . However, those at intermediate-level would not be able to harm it even if the Phoenix did not offer any resistance . ”

 “I also think that it is weird that the client would spend so much money to employ those mercenary groups . ” Shen Yanxiao touched her chin . There was definitely something amiss with the mission, and the client even dared to think about taking on a magical beast that had the same strength as a mythical beast . It was not the typical thought process of an average person .

 “It’s pointless to rely on those mercenary groups to deal with an adult Phoenix . I believe that the client must have something up their sleeves if they even dared to entertain such thoughts . ” Xiu narrowed his eyes .

 Both of them were extremely smart, and that was why they could see through the mission with only a little discussion between them .

 “Who cares about them? I only want the Flame Grass . If they were to fight the Phoenix, it still doesn’t have anything to do with me . ” Shen Yanxiao felt indifferent about that because her primary objective was not the Phoenix but the Flame Grass instead . She was confident with her thieving skills, so she knew that she would not slip . As long as it is something she wanted, even the Vermillion Bird was not an obstruction .

 With that in mind, Shen Yanxiao looked at the quiet Vermillion Bird who stood at the side .

 The subject of her attention glared at her with a displeased expression .

He was a mythical beast, and he simply could not bear for someone to ignore him for so long .

 Unfortunately, his master baffled him . She could let him out occasionally, but it was either to steal something for her or to run some errands . He even had to find medicinal ingredients for her . Those were not things that a mythical beast should do!
