Chapter 455
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
This was the effect Olivia wanted.
She wanted all her clansmen to see her true strength.
She was called rampant and arrogant, accused of only knowing how to enjoy exquisite food, and labeled as extreme and irritable. All the traps that First Elder had laid for her were useless tricks.
As long as she was strong enough, so strong that everyone looked up to her, being arrogant would turn into having a personality. She was also worthy of eating exquisitely and extravagantly.
What was wrong with people with great talent being arrogant because of their talent? So what if people with great ability were arrogant and domineering?
This was the right a genius deserved!
Only those who were useless and not capable enough had to lie low. She did not. have to do so!
The preparations were done very quickly. After a while, the people below had placed ten pills on the table.
Kane leaned over to take a look and asked, âAre we going to announce the name of the medicine like the previous time?â
Oliviaâs expression was calm as she sat steadily on the chair. She didnât even look up slightly and she at the pills. When she heard Kaneâs question, her lips curl he didnât even look Kane chuckled and touched the back of his head. He joked, âSaintess, arenât you afraid that Iâll cheat and copy your answers?â
Olivia lifted her eyelids. Her eyes had a pretty shape. It was not too big or too small, and it gave off a feeling that she was reserved.
When she lowered her eyes, she was charming and moving. When she looked up, she immediately exuded a powerful aura.
Kane was stunned and stared at her without blinking.
Olivia nodded lightly and said in a gentle and serious tone, âIâm the Saintess, the role model of the Flores family, and the faith of all you clansmen. Itâs my duty to teach you how to identify medicine and differentiate it from poisons. How can you say that you are copying me?â
When she said this, her tone was extremely calm, but strong emotions surged in the ears of her clansmen.

red his eyes.
His chest heaved up and down, and there were complicated and strong emotions surging in him. The impact made his entire body go limp and numb, and it hurt. So this was the purpose of the Saintessâ
existence?
He thought of the history books he had read when he was young. He thought that the Saintess who had led the family forward hundreds of years ago would never appear again.
He did not expect to meet her today.
Kane looked up, a a burning light flashed in his eyes.
The competition began. Olivia walked to the pills and rubbed it between her fingers. After three to five seconds, she said, âInsectârepellent incense can drive away poisonous insects, snakes, and ants within a fiveâmeter radius, butâ¦â
Olivia frowned and suddenly stopped speaking.
But what?
Everyoneâs interest was piqued by her words.
Especially Kane. He held the pill and smelled and tasted it before confirming that it was insectâ
repellent incense.
He turned to Olivia curiously. ââSaintess, this is indeed insectârepellent incense. Do you feel that something is wrong?â
In just a short while, Kane had already started to address the Saintess respectfully. The elders at the side had gloomy gazes. They felt that the development of the matter was getting more and more out of control.
Second Elder couldnât help but ask, âSaintess, do you think that thereâs something wrong with this pill?
Or do you think that this isnât insectârepellent incense, but soulâcalming incense?â
The insectârepellent incense and the soulâcalming incense were two pills with completely different effects. However, their appearance and smell were very similar. They were both slightly yellowish granules and had a faint fragrance. Olivia did not look at Second Elder. She took a tissue and wiped off the powder in her hand. Then, she said unhurriedly, âItâs insectârepellent incense, but the quality is a little poor. This is a formula from 300 years ago, right? The main ingredients, geraniums, are now being artificially cultivated. Arenât you going to consider the changes in the medicinal properties?
âEven if we donât consider the medicinal properties of the ingredients, we still have to make some innovative improvements. Itâs been three hundred years, but there hasnât been any improvement at all.
Itâs no wonder the Flores family is declining day by day!
As soon as she finished speaking, it was as if a stone had fallen into a calm lake rantly causing ripples.
od Elder & face instantly turned red and he immediately berated, âNonsensel Absolute nonsense! This is an ancient prescription, passed down by the ancestors of the Flores family.
How could you change it just like that?â
âWhat a joke.â Oliviaâs tone was mocking. âThree hundred years ago, the Flores family was still in the Hushe Republic, wearing long robes and shoes made from canvas. Why are they hiding in a corner of the Wayne Country now, wearing suits and trousers? Why is it that the land and the clothes of the ancestors change, but the formula of the ancestors canât be changed?
âIs it you who respect ancient prescriptions, or is it because you do not have the ability to improve them?â
The series of questions made Second Elderâs face turn red, and he couldnât say a word.
The other clansmen were also stunned by these sudden questions. None of them dared to speak.
Young people nowadays were not like before, where they listened to their elders. and did not have their own thoughts. Now, young people sought new changes and had their own opinions.
Therefore, although they felt that Oliviaâs words were a little aggressive, it was not completely unreasonable.
Even the grain seeds improved every year and underwent various evolutions. Why couldnât they improve ancient prescriptions as well?
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, First Elder had no choice but to say, âThe Saintess is right. This is indeed the ancient prescription from 300 years ago. It lacks innovative improvements, but not all prescriptions can be improved.
âThe insectârepellent incense has already reached perfection. There is no room for improvement. This was a treasure left behind by our ancestors. Naturally, we have to inherit it well.
âAlthough the Saintessâ idea is good, sheâs still too young and radical. The words âinnovation and improvementâ canât be used everywhere.â
First Elderâs words were so reasonable that the clansmen nodded repeatedly. Especially the older clansmen. They also felt that the Saintess was still too young. Young people were impulsive and only knew how to change things. They didnât recognize the good things passed down by their ancestors.
Seeing that the situation had turned around, a smile appeared on First Elderâs lips. He was about to belittle the Saintess when her cold voice sounded in his ears.
Who said thereâs no room for improvement? If youâre not capable enough, then Bay youâre not capable enough. Be honest and donât find excuses.
At this point, Olivia stepped forward and crushed the insectârepellent incense. Then, she said. âAdd 120 grams of rosemary, 40 grams of realgar, and 80 grams of Huino: Reconciliate them and the effect will be better Seeing that Olivia had blurted out a prescription, First Elderâs anger intensified. This was too ridiculous.
How could a prescription be changed so easily? He had not gone too far just now and had already given her respect. Why was she still so insensible?
First Elder was filled with hatred and his jaw was tense.
The other elders also frowned and pondered. They felt that the Saintess was messing around.
When Dakota saw this, she quickly walked to Oliviaâs side and said in a low voice, âSaintess, stop fooling around, ancient prescriptions canât be changed just like that. Even if you want to improve it, you have to enter the laboratory and let the elders. who are proficient in pharmacology improve it step by step. It doesnât matter if you donât change it well. It would be bad if it was poisonous and hurt people.â
Most people agreed with Dakotaâs words.
âThatâs right, thatâs right. The Saintess is being too childish.â
âThatâs right. Previously, I admired the Saintess for being so powerful, but in the blink of an eye, she started fooling around again. The elders are so angry that their faces turned red.â
âSigh, the Saintess is still too young after all.â
In any case, no one believed Oliviaâs words. After all, improving the prescription had to be done carefully. They felt that Olivia had been too impulsive.
