Chapter 381: Chapter 381

"You’re quite honest!"

"Because I know that any schemes are futile before you, I am willing to present my true thoughts to you."

"But if you choose to oppose Matsumoto Mina, it means that you won’t be able to return to the Royal Family for the time being."

"I understand. However, the only thing I can do for the Royal Family right now, the only way to make you and Father see my worth, is to hasten Matsumoto Mina’s development of the new medicine. This will help the Royal Family silence the murmuring among the populace."

The Queen nodded in satisfaction, "It’s good that you think this way. Once this matter is settled, I will personally bring you back to let the whole country know that you, Saori, are a true princess of the Royal Family! You will enjoy all the privileges of a princess after that!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The Queen specifically arranged her own trusted aide to serve as An Yan’s driver. The aide had been following the master of the Tianyuan Sect since childhood. His Ninjutsu was incredibly advanced! It was certainly a gesture that greatly honored Matsumoto Saori.

After An Yan left, the Queen turned to Prince Rensong, "What do you think?"

Prince Rensong said, "She’s an ambitious child, very much like her mother in that aspect!"

"But what makes her stronger than her mother is that she has a sense of propriety, knowing to first achieve results before negotiating terms!"

The Queen nodded, "It’s good that you haven’t neglected her over the years!"

With such a temperament, if she truly bore a grudge against the Royal Family, no one knows what trouble she might stir up.

"It’s all thanks to your teachings! I’ve always kept in mind what you said: ’Those in high positions must have compassion; especially towards the weak, one must show great compassion and magnanimity.’"

The Queen was even more satisfied, "Alright, go back. Calm your Princess Consort, and don’t let Saori’s return stir up discord between you two!"

After leaving the palace, An Yan’s nerves finally relaxed completely.

The driver arranged for her by the Queen had a peculiar aura.

An Yan guessed that he must be a Cultivator. It seemed the Queen wanted to show her regard for Matsumoto Saori.

She naturally could not afford to be impolite, sitting quietly from beginning to end, like anyone suddenly favored by the Queen would, a faint smile gracing her face.

As if she saw a bright future ahead!

A loud noise came from the side, followed by a car flying up, crashing right in front of An Yan’s car.

"A van suddenly switched lanes and collided with this family car! It looks road will be impassable for a while," the driver courteously reported to An Yan sitting in the back.

An Yan’s brow furrowed slightly. "How could this have happened?"

The driver didn’t respond but was busy sending messages. After more than a minute, he turned to An Yan and said, "Miss Saori, I’ve arranged for another car for you. It should arrive shortly. Please bear with us for a moment."

Up ahead, the car had been smashed into scrap metal, and a woman inside was struggling to crawl out.

"Go help her!" An Yan said, unbuckling her seat belt and getting out of the car with the driver.

The woman had hit her head, and blood was gushing out profusely.

The driver, who was obviously trained in first aid, quickly helped to administer aid. He also worried that blood might get on An Yan’s clothes and asked her to wait to the side for a moment.

An Yan took the opportunity to approach the van that had collided with the family car.

The van didn’t look big, but it was made of strong materials. The steel plates were much thicker than those of the car it had hit.

In the driver’s seat, Kirihara Jiro was struggling to free himself. The impact had deformed the front right door, trapping his leg in the gap. The seat belt was also jammed. He couldn’t pull it loose no matter how hard he tried.

Noticing An Yan approaching, Kirihara Jiro tensed involuntarily. He stopped tugging at the seat belt. The fear in his eyes was clearly conveyed.

An Yan was puzzled. Does this driver know Matsumoto Saori? Thinking back to the accident, everything was fine until the sudden swerve to the side. Could it be to avoid her? Why? Could it be that inside the car...

An Yan turned and walked out of Kirihara Jiro’s line of sight, activating her Clairvoyant Ability.

Then, she saw that the car was packed full, and among the contents were two large boxes filled entirely with various precious herbs! Looking further, she also found several boxes of Revival Dan!

Now An Yan thoroughly understood why the driver was avoiding Matsumoto Saori. So these were Matsumoto Mina’s belongings! It seems that after being barred from the island, she was planning to relocate and continue her secret research. Such dedication! Too bad her luck wasn’t that good! Fearing discovery, she operated in secrecy, only to encounter them head-on. HAHA!

An Yan discreetly moved into the crowd of onlookers.

She silently inquired of the big tree in her mind, "Is there a way to transfer the items in the car into the space?"

The big tree nodded. Several types of herbs in there had gone extinct in this world, and it wanted them!

Having received the feedback, An Yan immediately drew a Transfer Talisman with the Spiritual Energy at her fingertips and threw it into the car.

Kirihara Jiro was rescued by the hurriedly arrived emergency team. The moment he got out, he didn’t even care about the injury on his leg, stretching his neck to look around for Matsumoto Saori. Then he saw Matsumoto Saori getting into another car and leaving.

Only then did Kirihara Jiro relax. He hurriedly made a phone call to arrange for his people to come and pick up the goods. Only after everything was properly arranged did Kirihara Jiro feel at ease enough to get into the ambulance.

An Yan hadn’t expected that the Royal Family would be so efficient; the car sent to pick her up arrived in only about fifteen minutes.

After getting into the car, she immediately sunk into the space in her mind and began to inventory what Matsumoto Mina had sent over.

There were over a dozen boxes of just Revival Dan alone! An Yan unapologetically applied Soul-Release Talismans to them.

The rich Spiritual Energy made the big tree sway excitedly, as if it were dancing.

Besides Revival Dan, the most numerous items were some synthesized semi-finished materials, of which eighty percent were toxic. These were temporarily of no use, so she stored them away for now.

The second most numerous were herbs, and a portion of those had already been dried and processed. Among these herbs, toxic ones accounted for eighty percent again! Also temporarily of no use, she stored them away as well.

In addition to this, there were some seeds! An Yan couldn’t tell what plants they were from at the moment.

But among them, one seed was very special. It was enclosed in a brocade box, and there was only one, looking similar to a peanut.

She’s eager to develop new medicines, yet she has arranged for so many seeds to be brought over. Could it be that these seeds themselves are a kind of material? An Yan wondered.

Just as An Yan was about to move it out of the space to study it more closely, information about the seed immediately popped into her mind.

A holy detoxifying product.

An Yan: "..." Google seaʀᴄh NoveI-Fire.ɴet

As soon as the thought Then let’s plant it! crossed her mind, the seed automatically flew beneath the big tree and buried itself in the soil.

Next, the big tree displayed several more names.

An Yan smiled and said, "Plant them all!"

The several seeds immediately obediently buried themselves in the soil as well.

An Yan watched them curiously. Based on the growth speed of the Snow Green Grass, these seeds should also sprout quickly, right? She was eager to see what they would look like after growing and what effects they would have.

The driver’s voice rang out, "Miss Saori, we’ve arrived home."
