At this point, Ji Xuanyue seed to rember sothing else, and once again asked Zhu Fei,
"By the way, Zhu Fei, when you said the ingredients for crafting the Eighth Grade Tribulation Relief Pill were incomplete, can you tell exactly which ingredients are still missing?"
Seeing how eager Ji Xuanyue was, Zhu Fei didn’t want to say too much. Responding to her question, he replied directly,
"All the other ingredients are manageable. Even if I don’t have them on , it wouldn’t be difficult to find them. The only troubleso one is the key ingredient, the Eighth Grade Spiritual dicine, the Heavenly Destiny Flower."
"Heavenly Destiny Flower?"
Indeed, upon hearing Zhu Fei ntion the Heavenly Destiny Flower, Ji Xuanyue’s beautiful brows imdiately furrowed.
Despite being an Eighth Grade Spiritual dicine, the value and rarity of the Heavenly Destiny Flower were in no way inferior to those of the Ninth Grade.
The only reason the Heavenly Destiny Flower was categorized as an Eighth Grade Spiritual dicine was due to its effects being limited to Tribulation Crossing Practitioners. Otherwise, the flower would directly be considered among the most precious of the Ninth Grade Spiritual dicines.
"Zhu Fei, no matter what, I have to thank you first. After I find the Heavenly Destiny Flower, I will contact you again."
After pondering for a mont, Ji Xuanyue suddenly looked up, her eyes earnestly gazed at Zhu Fei as she spoke.
Zhu Fei’s eyebrows raised slightly, a touch of confusion in his voice, "What? Xuan Yue, are you planning to leave? If you really want to look for the Heavenly Destiny Flower, I can help you search for it."
However, Ji Xuanyue shook her head, "No, the reason I’m leaving is because I have my own matters to attend to."
As she said this, a hint of anxiety appeared on Ji Xuanyue’s face. She quickly explained to Zhu Fei,
"Zhu Fei, it’s not that I don’t want to join you, but my upcoming tasks may involve the organization I’m currently a part of. They don’t allow outsiders to go there, so..."
"That organization you ntioned, is it related to the tattoo on your back? And, if I’m not mistaken, the ’Aunt Yue’ you previously referred to must also be part of that organization, right?"
Zhu Fei didn’t wait for Ji Xuanyue to finish speaking, he interrupted her directly.
"Eh? Zhu Fei, how did you know about all this?"
Upon hearing Zhu Fei’s words, surprise imdiately flashed in Ji Xuanyue’s eyes.
However, she quickly recovered and nodded in response,
"That’s right, there is so connection to what you just said, but that’s not the main point."
After a brief pause, Ji Xuanyue bit her lip gently, then continued with a hint of apology,
"Zhu Fei, I’m sorry. It’s not that I unwilling to tell you, but I simply cannot reveal it now. I hope you can understand."
After saying this, Ji Xuanyue looked at Zhu Fei with a nervous expression, as if she was worried that Zhu Fei would misunderstand sothing.
In fact, Zhu Fei did initially feel sowhat uncomfortable about Ji Xuanyue keeping certain things from him.
After all, given their current relationship, they had already saved each other’s lives. If you, Ji Xuanyue, were truly in trouble, wouldn’t I, Zhu Fei, stand by idly if you spoke up?
But Zhu Fei quickly reconsidered, and he imdiately understood Ji Xuanyue’s intentions.
Ji Xuanyue not telling him certain things now was probably because those matters were beyond Zhu Fei’s current ability to get involved in. At least with his current level of cultivation, he simply couldn’t participate in those affairs.
If he really did get involved, not only would he likely be unable to help Ji Xuanyue, but he might even drag himself into the mix.
In that case, a situation that might have had room for maneuver could potentially beco dire.
Zhu Fei, although confident, was by no ans arrogant; he always had a clear understanding of when to do what.
The information Ji Xuanyue revealed in her words just then was absolutely not sothing he could lightly get involved with now. Once involved, the consequences were not sothing they could solve at present.
Thinking of this, the discomfort that Zhu Fei had felt earlier not only completely disappeared, but he also developed a stronger fondness for Ji Xuanyue.
For Ji Xuanyue to make her stance clear to him in such a way, no matter how one looked at it, was already quite remarkable. What was there for him to fret about anymore?
In that mont, Zhu Fei nodded to Ji Xuanyue with a smile.
"Okay, since you have your own matters to attend to, then go ahead. We’ll part ways here for now. Rember, if you ever really encounter an issue you can’t solve, you can directly contact with the Communication Pearl. As long as I can help, I, Zhu Fei, will not hesitate."
Seeing Zhu Fei say this, Ji Xuanyue, who had been slightly anxious, finally put her heart at ease.
To be honest, she had been truly afraid that Zhu Fei would just now have pressed her for details, or misunderstood her sohow.
If things had really gone that way, even though Ji Xuanyue had developed a certain special affection for Zhu Fei, she would inevitably have been disappointed, even heartbroken.
After all, a man who cannot understand the intentions of a woman’s heart is very difficult for a woman to accept.
Fortunately, Zhu Fei did not disappoint her, Ji Xuanyue. Far from disappointnt, Zhu Fei’s current behavior even stirred waves of inexplicable emotion in her heart.
In that mont, she smiled at Zhu Fei, nodded, suddenly stepped forward, and gently embraced him. At the sa ti, with slightly parted red lips, she gave a gentle kiss to Zhu Fei’s cheek, her face blushing as she said softly,
"Zhu Fei, thank you, I’m leaving now. Please don’t forget ."
Having said that, Ji Xuanyue did not wait for Zhu Fei to recover from his surprise. She leapt up and directly entered into the void, vanishing without a trace almost imdiately.
Watching the direction in which Ji Xuanyue disappeared, Zhu Fei subconsciously raised his hand to touch the cheek Ji Xuanyue had kissed, his gaze becoming sowhat complicated.
Zhu Fei was no fool; Ji Xuanyue’s just now obvious hint, how could he really not feel it?
But at the mont, his cultivation was insufficient. Even if there were matters he wanted to be involved in, or even to help Ji Xuanyue with, it was a willing spirit with a weak flesh.
It seems it was ti to find a way to quickly improve my own cultivation.
Thinking this, Zhu Fei’s gaze gradually beca resolute. Without further delay, his figure flashed, and he too disappeared on the spot.
...
Eternal Night City, this was a low-level city located in one of the Xuanhuang Nine States, Yong State.
At this mont, a young female cultivator dressed in coarse clothes and her face covered in black mud, was fleeing rapidly.
In cities like the low-level Eternal Night City, there were simply no real rules. As long as your cultivation was high and your strength strong, no one would care what you did in this city.
For example, right now, a white-haired old man with the Third Level of Foundation Establishnt was wielding a dark blade beneath him, rapidly chasing the female cultivator in coarse clothes before him.
Everywhere the white-haired old man passed, the surrounding crowd automatically gave way, and no one dared to interfere.
Believing that if it were not for the wave of Wind magic talisman vibrations on the female cultivator in coarse clothes, making her speed extrely fast, she would probably have been caught by the white-haired old man by now.
Nevertheless, it was only a matter of ti before the female cultivator in coarse clothes would be caught by the white-haired old man.
"Dong Miaoxuan, this way!"
However, just at that ti, a woman in a green dress suddenly appeared to the side ahead of the female cultivator in coarse clothes, frantically waving her hand and urgently signaling to her.
