Chapter 4803: Guan Lan’s Gift

"Y-you… Xiao Xuan, you… you've taken too much!" Cheng Yushi was stunned.

"Not much, not much… Brother Cheng, you don't know, I have a special talent. My speed at refining Medicinal Pills is extremely fast. Later, I'll perform it for you, and you'll understand everything." Xiao Fan said with a beaming smile, his hands not stopping for a moment as he spoke.

Cheng Yushi was about to go crazy. He never imagined that while the other party's Realm wasn't high and his tone was despicable, his actions were so ruthless…

"Alright, alright! Brother Xiao Xuan, stop now…" Cheng Yushi finally couldn't take it anymore and spoke up to stop Xiao Fan.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Xiao Fan froze, looking foolishly at Cheng Yushi.

"This… it's nothing, it's just that you've taken a bit too much." Cheng Yushi scratched his head awkwardly. "I don't mind, but I'm afraid that if Lord Guan finds out, it will have a bad influence on you later, and that would be troublesome."

"That… is also true." Xiao Fan sighed and shook his head helplessly. "Fine, then forget it, sigh…"

Xiao Fan looked dejected as he walked to Cheng Yushi's side and sighed softly. "I originally thought Shengtian Mansion didn't lack resources and that I could take whatever I wanted, but this… sigh… Brother Cheng, I've troubled you."

Cheng Yushi: "…"

"It's no trouble." Cheng Yushi shook his head, his expression as ugly as it could possibly be.

He never imagined that Xiao Fan, who had always seemed harmless to humans and animals, was actually so greedy.

But the other party had already taken enough. If he didn't stop him, Cheng Yushi believed that he definitely wouldn't show any mercy and would empty out the treasure vault, which would be troublesome later…

"Alright, let's go." Cheng Yushi gave a bitter smile and led Xiao Fan out of the treasure vault.

Afterward, Cheng Yushi told Xiao Fan that the identity Token he had just given him also had the function of a storage ring… so others wouldn't be able to discover any clues later.

"So that's how it is." Xiao Fan nodded, glanced at Cheng Yushi, and said indifferently, "In that case, I could actually have taken away even more resources without being discovered, right?"

Cheng Yushi: "…"

"This… actually, Brother Xiao Xuan, I'm doing this for your own good. I don't mind, but I'm worried about the higher-ups, the Elders of our Shengtian Mansion. If they get a bad impression of you, wouldn't that be troublesome later? Right?" Cheng Yushi gave a bitter smile.

If he didn't still need to use Xiao Fan, Cheng Yushi would have already turned hostile. This was the first time he had ever seen someone so insatiably greedy.

"Hehe… alright then." Xiao Fan nodded without saying much, his attitude somewhat impatient.

This matter was very strange. Originally, in Cheng Yushi's view, since the other party had acted so humbly before joining Shengtian Mansion, he should be even more humble after joining.

Yet with Xiao Fan, it was the opposite; after joining Shengtian Mansion, he began to act as if he were superior.

"Alright, Brother Cheng, you don't need to see me off. I can go back by myself…" Xiao Fan smiled and returned to his room on his own.

Cheng Yushi was helpless, so he went to see Guan Lan again and told him what had just happened.

"This kid… is actually so insatiably greedy!" Guan Lan was taken aback.

Originally, they wanted to show off the strength of Shengtian Mansion to make Xiao Fan work hard for them, but the other party turned out to be insatiably greedy and showed no mercy in his actions!

"Indeed, sigh… I misjudged him." Cheng Yushi sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Sigh… there's no helping it."

"My Lord, what should we do next? I'm worried that this kid won't be satisfied and won't do his job well later." Cheng Yushi voiced his concern.

"This… give this to him." Guan Lan gritted his teeth, took out a storage ring, and handed it to Cheng Yushi.

Cheng Yushi took the storage ring, inspected it, and his face twitched.

"Lord Guan, this… is too much, isn't it?!"

"For the sake of Shengtian Mansion and for the success of our future plans, give it to him." Guan Lan sighed.

"Alright… alright then." Cheng Yushi nodded and went to see Xiao Fan again.
