A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 132 The Ruby Fruit and Prehistoric Arm

Rayna explained, “It’s practically amber from ancient medicinal herbs encased in resin. It’s super rare.”

William was intrigued. “Medicinal herbs from ancient times? Can I come with you?”

“That’s exactly what I hoped for! Get in the car.” She smiled.

With that, she started the car’s engine and drove onto the Ivory Dragon Cove Bridge, heading toward the suburbs. A while later, her phone started ringing. William took a peck and saw Aidan’s name.

Meanwhile, Rayna merely glanced at it and switched her phone to silent mode.

“Why aren’t you answering that?” he asked,

Shaking her head, she answered, “After the graduation dinner, Aidan somehow managed to get my number. He then started confessing his love to me and madly pursued me. This is already the seventh call he has made to my phone today.”

He sneered. “A leopard doesn’t change its spots.

She tugged her lips into a smile. “You seem to hate him.”

He changed the topic. “Let’s not talk about him. Where did the fossilized herbs come from?”

“From a group of Elabian traders. Those fossilized herbs are passed down from earlier generations, and there’s about a hundred of them,” Rayna explained,

“Why are you buying those fossilized herbs? For research?”

She chuckled. “For collection, of course. Those things are more precious than real amber, so I need a few in my nook.”

William nodded, wondering if the herbs encased could still be used. The medicinal inheritance he received had recorded many rare and precious herbs that were difficult to find in this era, so he was looking forward to seeing those fossilized herbs.

When the car arrived at a hotel in the suburbs, they saw people waiting at the door. Once the two arrived. at the hotel, they were shown to a living room on the third floor and saw over a hundred opened boxes on the table. Inside those boxes were fossilized herbs of different shapes and sizes.

There were also seven to eight Elabian men inside the living room. One had a big beard as he shook hands with Rayna, smiling. “Miss Talavera, we’ve finally met.”
