The match with Black Guardian was set for the day after tomorrow, with two days in between for the members of Phoenix to rest.

After Yun Sheng learned this news, she secretly approached Wen Renhuo.

"Little Sheng wants to borrow some money? No problem, no matter how much, just tell me, Big Brother Renhuo will give it all to you," Wen Renhuo promised with a pat on his chest.

"I want to borrow 200,000 gold coins," Yun Sheng did not beat around the bush, and directly voiced her request.

"Oh, two hundred thousand. No problem.... what, what do you need so many gold coins for?" The Wen Family was rather well-off, and if he hadn't met Feng Kuo, he would have probably become a typical second gen rich kid, so Yun Sheng, whose bag was empty, thought of the first target to borrow money from, Wen Renhuo.

Because of the competition two days later, Feng Kuo had asked the other three to stay in closed-door cultivation, so they could be in perfect condition.

Wherever there were people, there was gambling.

The gambling in Inaba Mountain had been going for a long time, and the Mercenary Union also turned a blind eye to it.

This match between Phoenix and Black Guardian aroused attention much greater than any of the previous years' mercenary assessment matches. Even greater than the matches held at the main arena at the same time.

It was said that the tickets, which had only just come out, were already sold out.

"You want to bet on our match? What about the odds, are there already any big bets on us?" Wen Renhuo was in the mood for gambling.

The odds are high, one to five, everyone expects Black Guardian to win," said Yun Sheng, without a trace of dejection on her face, but instead an expression of seeing a small fortune.

"One to five?! Which bastard started this? We're Phoenix, and we have won all three rounds, why should we lose?!" Wen Renhuo was so excited that he could not wait to lift his clothes and go out and find someone to argue with.

"It's better if the odds are high, lend me 200,000 gold coins. If we win, you'll receive a million gold coins," Yun Sheng grabbed Wen Renhuo, preventing him from storming out of the inn.

"Little Sheng, let Big Brother Renhuo tell you, gambling is wrong, especially since you're still a little kid," Wen Renhuo felt bitter. In fact, even if he wanted to go outside and bet, this should under no circumstances become known to Feng Kuo, otherwise he will definitely die a miserable death.

In the end, Wen Renhuo couldn't bear Yun Sheng's pleading and lent the 200,000 gold coins to Yun Sheng, who promised to return them immediately after the competition was over.,

Wen Renhuo wasn't afraid of Yun Sheng not returning the money, Yun Sheng's refining skills were incredible, and she also helped Phoenix in her free time, so Wen Renhuo also acknowledged her big contributions.

After obtaining a glorious Purple Gold Infinity Card, Yun Sheng slipped out of the inn and used her Disguise Spell to find Lin Yao'er.

Lin Yao'er had been waiting for Yun Sheng for several days, she was relieved when she finally saw Yun Sheng come to the Compassion Medical Center.

Without waiting for Yun Sheng to open her mouth, Lin Yao'er took out a medicine recipe.

It had been several days since Lin Yao'er advertised the personalized medicines, on the first few days there hadn't been even a slight reaction.

But early this morning, not long after the medical hall opened its gates, a foreign merchant came and deposited an intermediate-grade medicine recipe with a 100 gold coins.

This was the first custom order that they had received, so she was bound to feel excited.

Hearing that a customer had visited them, Yun Sheng took a look at the recipe.

"I've already looked through it, the recipe isn't very difficult. It's only an intermediate-grade medicine, you should be able to concoct it," Lin Yao'er seemed rather expectant.

"You're right, it's an intermediate-grade medicine, but this recipe, if I'm not wrong, should have been sent by the Medicine Association," Yun Sheng's eyesight was so good that she immediately recognized the paper used for the recipe as the special paper of the Medicine Association.

"Doctor Yun, are you serious, it looks just like an ordinary prescription, ah!" Lin Yao'er was shocked.

"This medicine is called "Hibiscus Beauty Creme", to put it bluntly, it's a beauty crème for women. The recipe looks ordinary, but it's just too ordinary. Doctor Qi wouldn't send us free money," Yun Sheng knitted her beautiful eyebrows and pondered for a while.

"What can we do? We've already taken this order, it won't be good to refuse it now, it would stain our reputation," Lin Yao'er was a little anxious. But suddenly she thought of something and her face brightened, "I have an idea, this kind of beauty crème is very expensive, not many people in this city would be able to afford it. I'll send someone to ask around, maybe I can find out who uses this crème regularly."

Lin Yao'er was quick-witted, so she immediately sent someone out, and sure enough response came quickly.

"Doctor Yun guessed correctly, that foreign merchant was fake. The crème was originally ordered by the Concubine Jia Baiwan, but she suddenly developed many small rashes on her face after using it, in a fit of rage, Jia Baiwan ordered the Medicine Association to refine new Hibiscus Beauty Crème." But even after several days of research, Doctor Qi still couldn't find a way to cure Jia Baiwan's rashes, so, he had no choice but to send the prescription back to Yujing City and wait for news from there.

But when he heard that Compassion Medical Center was going to take personalized requests, an evil idea formed in his mind and sent the recipe over.

"Doctor Qi is really shameless, I also secretly researched Jia Baiwan's condition, she has rashes on the right side of her face that just won't disappear, she has hired many doctors, including those of the Medicine Association, but all were helpless," Lin Yao'er was furious.

"Lin Yao'er, you don't need to be angry, first, tell me more about the rashes on her face," Yun Sheng quickly came to a conclusion after listening to Lin Yao'er, "Bring the recipe over, I'll refine the medicine. After the medicine is finished, there's not need to give it to the Medicine Association, just send it directly to Jia Baiwan."

Yun Sheng was certain that the concubine had an allergic reaction.

There were several kinds of flowers and herbs in the recipe of the Medicine Association, and it was nothing ordinary people would use, but it had beautifying and nourishing properties. But if one was allergic to pollen, they would suffer from the half-face of rashes and itchiness that Lin Yao'er had mentioned. This was an allergic reaction.

She would only need to replace these flowers and herbs, and then refine the crème with some light elements. After this, the concubine's symptoms would be solved automatically.

After the crème was finished, it would be sent to Jia Mansion. Yun Sheng called Lin Yao'er again, "There's no need to worry about the crème, here is some money, buy these ingredients for me. Make sure to have them ready the day after tomorrow's mercenary tournament."

Lin Yao'er looked at what Yun Sheng had handed her.

It was a Purple Gold Card.
