Chapter 845: Chapter 498: The Gate of the Dominator
“It’s such a good item, it seems that the Business Fire Lotus really is tempting.”
Logan sighed, and at the sa ti, a peculiar gleam flashed through his eyes. To have sothing that could bring the dead back to life and rejuvenate flesh from bone—if he had such a thing on him, wouldn’t it be like having a life-saving pill?
Life-saving items are valued for their quality, not quantity. The Business Fire Lotus—he had to get it.
“Miss Maya, do you know where exactly the Business Fire Lotus is?”
Seeing his impatient manner, Maya couldn’t help but tease him.
“Watching you one the way here, you seed to dismiss everything, not caring about anything. I thought there was nothing that could catch your eye. Turns out Brother Logan is not lackadaisical, he just holds no interest in mundane items. Brother Logan’s taste is truly discerning.”
...
Logan just smiled without saying anything. After the jest, Maya got to the point.
“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Brother Logan, I don’t know the exact location, but it’s probably nearby. A place like this is very likely to have the Business Fire Lotus growing. Why don’t we search separately?”
Logan looked at her deeply but did not object. He nodded, and Maya sighed in relief. Then, the two of them started searching separately.
However, after so ti searching, they found no clues. When they t up again, their faces revealed so discouragent.
“Brother Logan, I don’t know if you’ve found any clues. It seems I haven’t found anything.”
“No, I’ve searched everywhere, and haven’t seen any lotus flowers.”
As he spoke, he suddenly realized sothing, paused, and then turned to look intently at the person before him.
“Wait, Miss Maya, could you speculate where the hottest spot in this area might be?”
Maya was startled, then also understood sothing through his words.
She beca a bit anxious.
“Let think, wait a mont, I’ll think it through.”
After careful consideration, she quickly thought of a place.
“If you’re talking about a particularly hot spot around here, it has to be the lava. Brother Logan, co with , let’s go check near the lava.”
Logan did not refuse. He had a hypothesis, but he dared not be completely certain. Only after seeing the facts could he make a decision.
Soon enough, the two of them arrived near the lava.
There was no need for Logan to make a decision; they had already seen the herb they wanted by the side of the lava.
“That’s great, Brother Logan, you’re a genius! How did you know that the Business Fire Lotus would be growing near the lava? There it is, right over there, it’s just beautiful!”
As Maya spoke, her eyes flashed with a fiery eagerness and a hint of determination. Logan also looked towards the Business Fire Lotus by the side of the lava.
Indeed worthy of the na lotus, it truly resembled one, but its petals had patterns like flas, and the entire flower was a fiery red. Even before getting close, they could feel a scorching aura hitting them.
“There’s no doubt, this must be the Business Fire Lotus.”
Maya’s gaze seed fixed on it, unable to move away for a long ti, but she eventually forced herself to look away and humbly turned to Logan.
“Brother Logan, you found this herb first, so please go take it. Once you have this herb, you can make it into a life-saving pill. Brother Logan is truly fortunate. To prevent losing its efficacy, you’d better hurry and take it now, it would be bad if sothing changed later.”
Maya displayed a generous attitude, urging Logan to take it, but Logan was not so easy to deceive, understanding that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
“Don’t you want it, Miss Maya? The Business Fire Lotus is a rare dicinal herb. Besides, if it weren’t for your reminder, I wouldn’t have known about this herb, let alone co to the lava. Please, go ahead, Miss Maya, I’ll be the gentleman this ti.”
Logan said, for the first ti, not grabbing at the treasure, but instead letting another take the lead. However, hearing his words, Maya was both surprised and hesitant.
Seeing that the person before her was showing an inquisitive deanor, she quickly said.
“All this was with Brother Logan’s help. How could I, a young lady, overstep Brother Logan to take the herb? Such a fine item should rightfully belong to Brother Logan.”
Logan scoffed, she was not telling the whole truth and was keeping so secrets. Otherwise, why would she push away sothing delivered right to her? Unless, she was aware of the danger but wanted soone else to test the waters first.
Logan decided to speak more directly and heavily.
“No need, Miss Maya. Let be honest, I do not lack such herbs. I already possess herbs that can revive the dead and nd bones, so I don’t need another Business Fire Lotus. However, it’s thanks to Miss Maya that I have seen such a wonderful herb, so please take it for yourself.”
Having said that, he crossed his arms and stood back, looking utterly indifferent and uninterested.
He seed truly unmoved and without any desire.
Seeing this, Maya, for so reason, started to beco frantic and agitated.
Her entire deanor turned anxious, an anxiety she could not hide, revealing itself plainly on her face.
“Brother Logan…”
But after opening her mouth, managing to utter only these three words, she didn’t know how to continue.
She actually wanted Logan to go for it. If she dared, she wouldn’t have needed to make excuses here. Obviously, because she didn’t dare, she hoped soone would take the lead. In the end, Maya took a deep breath, her gaze resigned and considerably calr.
“It seems Brother Logan has already discovered the truth. You’re right, I was indeed hoping Brother Logan would take the lead and collect the herb.”
