Chapter 227: Chapter 146: What He Possesses is Not the Aura of a Hero, But the King’s Aura_2
“`
And he was the chief culprit who set this strange course into motion.
Following behind the young and beautiful Jiang Xin, dressed in white, Chen Qing arrived at the innermost part of the dicine Garden.
This place was rich in natural treasures, with an incredibly dense dicinal aura. If an ordinary Qi Refining Realm third layer cultivator were here, even breathing could enhance their cultivation.
“Miss Jiang Xin, why does your dicine Valley have so many spiritual dicines, but not many Foundation Establishnt cultivators?”
Jiang Xin bowed and said, “My lord, you may not know this, but while the dicine Valley has a treasure land, the spirit Gu have long lost their inheritance.”
“We can only continuously offer precious dicines to the nearby larger tribes for self-preservation.”
“If they weren’t afraid of the king’s city’s expeditions, daring not to destroy my dicine Valley tribe, it would likely have been wiped out long ago.”
Chen Qing suddenly realized, “Miss, you can fly the Qingxu banner of my Taihao Tribe. If anyone dares offend, I will punish them with death!”
Hearing Chen Qing’s assurance, Jiang Xin felt more secure and quickly led Chen Qing deep into the dicine Garden.
Ahead was a treasure tree, blood-red like a coral.
The tree was about three ters tall, containing its dicinal properties within, with twelve fruit hanging from it, nine of which were round and glossy, about the size of a fist.
Jiang Xin introduced, “This is our dicine Valley’s Red Amber Treasure Tree, which blooms once every thirty years and bears fruit every thirty years.”
“At present, there are nine ripe Red Amber Fruits, six of which we wish to offer to you.”
“You can enhance thirty years of cultivation by consuming one fruit!”
“But you need to extract the essence, and only one drop can be consud per month!”
Chen Qing smiled, “This is excellent, such precious dicine. Please harvest them for , Miss!”
Jiang Xin did not hesitate; since deciding to follow Chen Qing into the Death Realm, she entrusted her breakthrough to the Mystic Gate Realm, and her safety in the Death Realm, to him.
Imdiately, she picked six fruits, wrapped them in a jade box, and handed them to Chen Qing.
Chen Qing took out Golden Cloud Mist from his belongings and poured out half a bottle, “This is Golden Cloud Mist, a treasure!”
“Since I’ve taken away the precious dicine you’ve protected for years, I won’t let you suffer a loss.”
“Take this, as slight compensation!”
Jiang Xin was curious, “My lord, why are you giving a gift? Could it be?”
She looked at Chen Qing with a strange expression, thinking he had intentions toward her.
Chen Qing laughed aloud, “I’m already married; I simply feel uncomfortable taking the precious dicine you’ve guarded for years.”
“But the Master of Mortal World entered the Death Realm, the Ancient Prince has awakened, and the great trend of the world forces to do so!”
“If my cultivation isn’t deep enough, entering the Death Realm is but a path of death.”
“I had no choice, please don’t hold it against , Miss!”
Chen Qing never liked to seize by force; that was more like sothing Taiyi would do!
When he was at Wuyou Mountain, no matter how poor, he never thought of killing for treasures; he saved money honestly to buy items in town.
In the end, it was because he had been cultivating peacefully and hadn’t yet adapted to this chaotic world.
Jiang Xin was montarily stunned, then saw Chen Qing out.
After stepping out, Chen Qing still felt a bit uneasy.
So, he stood in the valley, harnessing the earth’s force there, gathering abundant dicinal energy and directing it onto the injured mbers of the dicine Valley tribe.
Using the Lifebound Light Butterfly to heal those people, he finally left.
Watching the departing Taihao Tribe mbers, Jiang Xin stood among the well-recovered dicine Valley tribe mbers, silently dazed.
An elder with white hair nearby approached Jiang Xin and asked, “Miss, do you really intend to follow this person?”
“This person’s actions are too kindhearted, lacking the aura of a hero!”
Jiang Xin touched the half bottle of Golden Cloud Mist in her hand but said, “However, following him, I feel we won’t be mistreated.”
“Besides, it’s better than Hidden Sword Mountain, right?”
He took the precious dicine but at least left compensation.
Additionally, he’s also letting the dicine Valley tribe raise the Qingxu banner to protect the dicine Valley tribe.
The white-haired elder was suddenly startled, his face changed, as if realizing sothing, “This person indeed lacks a heroic aura.”
“But according to what the miss says.”
“This person may have the King’s Aura.”
Jiang Xin glanced around nervously, “Let’s not discuss this further.”
“Were it not for him, half of the dicine Valley tribe might’ve been slaughtered.”
…
Sitting on the Golden Crow, Chen Qing reached out for a Red Amber Fruit, tossing it to Yu Chengfeng, “Take this back to the tribe and exchange it for Spirit Stones for everyone!”
Yu Chengfeng was overjoyed; say what you will, following this master truly distributed Spirit Stones!
In the future, whoever dares say he isn’t our Taihao Tribe’s Protector, I’ll be furious with them!
“Thank you, Protector!”
Everyone present, who tagged along, was full of smiles; having done nothing but shouted alongside, they actually got to split Spirit Stones. Where else in the world could you find such a comfy life?
Not like Hao Chengtian, who demanded everyone hand over treasures to pay tribute and sent them to fight life and death battles.
Chen Qing also tossed another Red Amber Fruit to Yu Chengfeng, “Take this and offer it to the Young Master!”
Yu Chengfeng quickly caught it, “Yes!”
Chen Qing put his hand in his pocket, hmm, four left, he’d eat three, and keep one to continue currying favor, preventing dissatisfaction from tribes repressed.
After this experience, Chen Qing realized it was better to wait for the Great Prince or Hidden Sword Mountain to move, rather than attacking directly.
Then, he could go to the rescue. Then, asking for treasures, others would happily comply.
With this thought, Chen Qing quickly instructed, “Always keep an eye on the movents of Hidden Sword Mountain and the Great Prince. Report imdiately if they deploy many Foundation Establishnt cultivators!”
Upon hearing this, Yu Chengfeng understood Chen Qing’s thinking but didn’t fear the Great Prince.
Prince, Prince—He’s a prince now, but if King Wu falls, who knows who’ll rise to power.
Even if a new king takes the throne, they’d dare not touch the Taihao Tribe, a top-tier tribe, and need to win it over.
“Hmph, what prince dares to be cocky in front of our Taihao Tribe will be beaten down!”
Hearing Yu Chengfeng’s words, Chen Qing also realized how strong the Taihao Tribe’s backing was.
“If we face the prince, what’s the most we can do?”
Yu Chengfeng confidently replied, “Our tribe’s ancestor is an Upper Pillar Country, the top rank among Wu Country’s Four Pillar Countries!”
“And these princes, if they haven’t reached the Mystic Gate Realm, they aren’t even qualified to see our king.”
“As long as no one is killed, it’s not a big deal.”
Chen Qing understood—without reaching the Mystic Gate Realm, soone isn’t considered a person in the king’s city.
Makes sense, really—a re Foundation Establishnt cultivator is probably nothing in the king’s city.
Failing to pass the Ghost Face Realm test, they remain a re handful of dust, living a hundred years at best like an ordinary person.
Hearing this, Chen Qing was completely relieved and started planning how to enhance his power upon returning.
He realized the gap between himself and the top talents of these forces lay in their having at least Butterfly Transformation Gu, or even Harmonization Gu.
His Harmonization Gu currently included only the Lifebound Light Butterfly and Snake Butterfly, which enhanced cultivation and defense.
In terms of attack and conquest, he still lagged behind these talents.
He relied entirely on Fatian Xiangdi to forcibly boost his might several tis, reaching such a level of conquest.
After returning, he planned to reach mid-Foundation Establishnt and continue enhancing the Dragon Capturing Gu and Great River Sword, and any spiritual item sword Gu if available.
Once his spiritual item Gu reached Butterfly Transformation or even Harmonization, his strength would vastly improve!
…
Hao Chengtian had just awakened from cultivation and remarked, “This Dragon Blood Grass is truly remarkable. A sip of Spiritual Wine brewed from it advances a year of hard cultivation.”
“The remaining wine can still support my cultivation for a month!”
A smile graced the corners of his mouth, pondering: Compared to Hao Chengjian, who only knew how to shout and demand cultivation resources from , this Qingxu was far more useful.
Efficient in work, everything valuable is sent my way.
At this mont, Lu Xian appeared quickly, presenting a jade box, “Young Master, Qingxu has taken over the dicine Valley tribe and offered these Red Amber Fruits!”
Hao Chengtian opened the box, his face brightened with a smile, “Good, good! Qingxu indeed proves capable!”
With the Dragon Blood Grass not yet exhausted, here ca precious Red Amber Fruits. When did such good fortune ever reach this place?
Hao Chengtian felt extrely satisfied, “Excellent, excellent, Lu Xian, I owe you for persuading to accept him as a Protector!”
Lu Xian smiled, “I dare not take credit. It is the Young Master’s wisdom in heeding your subordinates’ advice.”
