13 Chapter Twelve (1/2)

”The herb garden?” Ji Xiang was stunned for a moment, then remembered.

”Oh! That! The concept of that is like your chests, so for now, the herb garden is non-existent. However, the forest is still free for you to move about, and there might be some of the herbs in there. . .” Ji Xiang quickly explained, seeing the shadow of Yu You Lei loom closer.

Nodding stiffly, Ji Xiang watched with bated breath as Yu You Lei walked away.

It was only when her figure completely disappeared did he let out a sigh of relief. Mustn't let her know he actually ate most of the herbs, or else his life would be in danger! He stared at the herb garden for a moment, then muttered under his breath, ”Little plants, I know you can regenerate. I'm sorry for eating you again and again over the last few years, please grow faster. . .”

Then, a moment later, all traces of fear disappeared and he became bored.

”Wait! Female devil, it's boring in here. Bring me out to play! I haven't seen the world in many years, what if there's something new?” Ji Xiang shouted out anxiously. It didn't seem to know that they'd travelled a few thousand years back instead of forward.

A reply came very quickly.

”Do you expect me to carry a fish tank around? I'm not going to bring you out! This is a few thousand years back, and you probably were already at this point in time. What is there to see?” Yu You Lei's voice echoed in the blob of water Ji Xiang was still floating in.

”At least let me out?” Ji Xiang tactfully used a respectful tone, hoping he could at least swim around in the water for a bit.

No reply came, even after he waited for a few minutes.

The only traces of Yu You Lei ever entering the ring were the blobs of water floating in midair.

One contained a fish, while the others, position directly in plain view of the fish, spelt out ”In your dreams!”.

Her soul returning to her body, Yu You Lei took a moment to recollect her thoughts.

So, the first step would be to find a way to get rid of the poison.

For that, she needed to be in good condition and have a lot of money.

The herbs she required to rid her body of the poison weren't common, and would probably be pricey.

Since the previous owner of Yu You Lei's body liked to dabble in random jobs, she knew that the herbs, alchemy, arrays, beast taming and such weren't too different from her past life.

The occupations were graded from 10 to 1, with 10 being the lowest and 1 being the highest.

Each grade had a very vast difference in the amount of mental power required, which was why anything higher than grade 3 was practically legendary.

The grades represented what grade of their occupations they could handle. For example, a grade 5 alchemist could make grade 5 pills, and a grade 8 array master could set up grade 8 arrays.

As the grade grows higher, the difference also becomes larger. While a grade 10 alchemist might still be able to stand in for a grade 9 one, it would be impossible for a grade 8 one to stand in for a grade 7 one.
