Jiang Qin yelled at Feng Qing, who was nervously preparing.
"Young Master Feng, didn't you say your trip up the mountain was solely to ensure my safety? Why start preparing to harvest the spiritual dicine so early?"
"Are you here to protect or to steal the spiritual dicine?"
"Steal?"
Feng Qing sneered and shalessly said.
"The spiritual dicine grows in the mountains, and who ends up with it depends on luck. Besides, the spiritual dicine isn't marked with your na, so how can you call it stealing? Jiang Qin, your words are really unpleasant."
"Hmph, I knew your intentions for coming along weren't pure."
Feng Qing chuckled lightly.
"The spiritual dicine is down below, and whoever has the ability shall have it. Besides, your grandfather already agreed to marry you to , so we're practically family. If there is plenty of spiritual dicine, you could ask nicely, and if I'm in a good mood, I might just give you one."
"You, who would want to marry you, shaless scoundrel. Even if my grandfather has agreed to your proposal, I'd rather die than comply."
Jiang Qin's expression was one of grievance and indignation.
On the side, Zhang Xiaoshan listened with a pained heart.
Clearly, Feng Qing was already engaged to the Flying Fox Sect Leader Hu Lie's daughter, then why was the patriarch of the Jiang family still willing to secretly marry his granddaughter to Feng Qing?
This indicates that the marriage alliance between the Feng and Jiang families is the real deal. They've reached so agreents, and the engagent between Feng Qing and Hu izi is rely the Feng family's legitimate reason to control the Flying Fox Sect.
Once the Feng family controls the Flying Fox Sect, Hu izi will be useless and discarded, maybe even killed, then Feng Qing can marry Jiang Qin to secure the Jiang family's support and gain official endorsent.
This plan is truly well-calculated.
"It seems that Hu Lie's situation is worse than what he described to in Xijing. In the years he has been ill, the Feng family has nearly taken complete control of the Flying Fox Sect. Taking down the Feng family won't be easy."
In just a few minutes, Zhang Xiaoshan had sorted out his thoughts.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, you're awake. Let's have breakfast. After that, we should head down to find the spiritual dicine before that bastard Feng Qing snatches all the benefits."
Upon seeing Zhang Xiaoshan, Jiang Qin changed her deanor.
The old hyena following behind Zhang Xiaoshan anxiously urged.
"At this point, why bother with breakfast? Let's hurry down. If we're any later, we won't even get the broth."
Zhang Xiaoshan was well aware.
Clearly, they wanted everyone to head down together, to be ambushed by the Tomb Guardian. If they went down in groups, who knows what might happen.
If Feng Qing's n were to clash first with the Tomb Guardian, Zhang Xiaoshan and the Jiang family would beco alert, making it difficult to handle.
Only if both sides were battered and half-dead would it be the scene most desired by the old hyena.
Everyone hastily ate so bread and beef jerky to regain so strength and began setting up the ropes to descend the mountain.
Ten minutes later.
The group successfully descended from the mountain top to the cliff below.
A huge cavern appeared before them.
"How beautiful, how magnificent."
The cavern was at least a hundred ters high and several tens of ters wide, oval in shape, partially shrouded in clouds and mist, with colorful hazes faintly visible, remarkably splendid.
A stream also extended from the cave entrance.
The stream was only one or two ters wide, crystal clear, with steam rising. Bending down and testing with a hand revealed a temperature of at least over forty degrees.
"This is hot spring water, and I sense a faint spiritual power in it. It has healing and purifying effects."
Yang Hai, the best doctor on Bay Island, couldn't help but admire.
Luo Ji, the protector of the Flying Fox Sect, echoed in agreent.
"Mr. Yang is right, this hot spring water indeed has cleansing qualities. Long-term imrsion greatly aids martial arts cultivation."
"And this is just the periphery. I imagine the source of the stream is even more incredible."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes burned with excitent.
The old hyena took the chance to incite.
"I was fortunate enough to enter once. This entire mountain belly of Ruixue Peak is hollow. The cave entrance before us is the path into the mountain. Inside is a vast Grotto Heaven, and a gigantic hot spring lake. The millennium-old spiritual dicine grows therein. Unfortunately, there's only one lotus, so how are we to share it among so many?"
"How to share? Of course, it's based on skill; whoever grabs it first gets it."
Feng Qing and Luo Ji rushed eagerly towards the cave entrance.
