Chapter 915: Chapter 915: Brewing Storm Chapter 915: Chapter 915: Brewing Storm Han Xiaoxing, who wasn’t far away, rely glanced over and then shut her eyes, seemingly unconcerned with whatever Fang Lin was doing.
The thousand-year Corpse Ginseng, after appearing, scanned its surroundings, its sleazy face filled with astonishnt.
“Eh? How co this place looks so familiar?” the thousand-year Corpse Ginseng uttered.
Fang Lin slapped it lightly and said, “Of course it’s familiar; this is the Purple Mist Sect.”
Upon hearing this, the Corpse Ginseng showed a sudden realization and then fixed its greedy gaze on the vast dicinal herb garden within the courtyard.
Fang Lin imdiately saw what the creature was thinking and said irritably, “Don’t even think about these herbs.”
The Corpse Ginseng widened its eyes: “Nonsense, would a great be that sort of person? These herbs are too young; I don’t even care for them.”
Fang Lin curled his lip and said, “You’re not even human, to begin with.”
The Corpse Ginseng was left speechless.
“Alright, let get to the point,” Fang Lin said, not wanting to waste more words on pointless talk with the Corpse Ginseng.
Sitting lazily on the ground, the Corpse Ginseng said, “Let’s make it clear first, I can help, but you better make sure my share of the benefits isn’t shortchanged.”
Fang Lin didn’t respond and simply took out four stalks of ancient dicinal herbs, generously tossing them to the Corpse Ginseng.
With quick reflexes, the Corpse Ginseng hugged all four stalks and then, without another word, began to bite into them haphazardly.
Despite its small size, the Corpse Ginseng chewed through the ancient herbs at a rapid pace, swift as lightning. In the blink of an eye, the four fine herbs were gnawed away to nothing.
“Er, my eating manners are just this bold and unrestrained, don’t stare at like that,” the Corpse Ginseng said proudly. However, it kept burping, obviously having eaten its fill.
Fang Lin, impatiently, said, “Now you’re going to work for , right?”
The Corpse Ginseng nodded and sat up from the ground.
Fang Lin then instructed the Corpse Ginseng on the task at hand and told it exactly what to do.
“That’s it? It’s that simple? And here I thought I’d have to battle so mighty adversary. Such a minor task, just leave it to ,” the Corpse Ginseng bragged, tapping its chest, even though it had no chest to speak of.
“Rember, don’t expose yourself, and if you encounter any danger, retreat imdiately and report back to ,” Fang Lin exhorted repeatedly, feeling that the Corpse Ginseng was rather unreliable.
“Relax, I know the limits. If there’s real danger, I’ll make a run for it,” the Corpse Ginseng assured him confidently.
Fang Lin nodded and handed a ssage Transmitting Jade Slip to the Corpse Ginseng and also quietly marked it with the symbol of the Supre Saint Hall.
After receiving the Jade Slip, the Corpse Ginseng drilled into the soil and started to travel underground.
Throughout this whole ti, Han Xiaoxing didn’t react at all, as if she hadn’t seen the Corpse Ginseng. She showed no curiosity towards Fang Lin, having seemingly no interest.
As for the Corpse Ginseng, it burrowed through the soil, delighting in the freedom and jubilation of moving through the earth.
“Hahaha, I’m finally free! Damned brat, always pushing around. Think I’d actually work for you? Dream on, I’m off to enjoy life!” The Corpse Ginseng was ecstatic.
However, it soon beca troubled again: “But if I leave the brat, I won’t be able to enjoy all those herbs anymore, and although he’s quite detestable and not as good-looking as I am, he’s sort of my cultivator. To abandon him like this… it seems a bit dishonorable.”
“No, that kid is a bastard, I absolutely refuse to join forces with him!”
“Alas, although that kid is detestable, I must make him realize his wrongs and persuade him to abandon evil for good.”
·····
In his dilemma, the Millennium Corpse Ginseng fled underground and ca to a range of mountains.
“It should be here, I wonder where those three guys are, I need to search thoroughly.” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng poked its head out of the soil.
No sooner had it erged than a fierce tiger pounced at it, frightening the Millennium Corpse Ginseng to retreat back into the soil.
“You scared the hell out of , so there are Demon Beasts here too, that damn kid didn’t warn , how despicable!” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng cursed Fang Lin in its heart, not daring to co up again, it continued to travel under the ground.
Little did it know that beneath the earth also lurked Demon Beasts, the Millennium Corpse Ginseng was indeed out of luck this ti, being chased by various Demon Beasts until, having no choice, it transford into the appearance of a Demon Beast, and only then did things quiet down.
“If it weren’t for that Quadruple Ancient dicinal Herbs, I wouldn’t have bothered taking this trip for you.” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng, now in the form of a bird, soared in the sky, continuing to search for Lu Zhen and his companions.
After searching for a long ti without finding Lu Zhen and the others, it instead ca across the traces of other people.
“So many people have co, it seems that what that kid said was right, sothing valuable must be about to appear here.” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng muttered to itself, not daring to be careless, for fear of attracting the attention of these powerhouses, it flew higher.
The mountains, which were originally unremarkable, were now becoming bustling, as forces from the Upper Three Countries had sent people here one after another.
Among them, there were even experts of the Spirit Bone stage who personally arrived, sending the Demon Beasts scattered throughout these mountains fleeing in panic.
Of course, so far, the Millennium Corpse Ginseng had only seen two Spirit Bone stage experts, and since it did not dare to get too close, it could only glance at them from a distance.
“OMG, even Spirit Bone experts are here, it’s going to be quite lively this ti.” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng continued to circle in the sky when suddenly, its gaze sharpened.
“Pretty boy!” The Millennium Corpse Ginseng cried out in its heart.
The white-robed youth who had appeared in the Ancient Alchemy Prohibited Area was now present among the mountains below, still the sa, and the Millennium Corpse Ginseng recognized him at a glance.
The white-robed youth seed to sense sothing and looked up, but he did not see anything unusual and frowned slightly.
“This ti, I must obtain the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch and rid myself of these damn nails.” The white-robed youth murmured to himself.
In the land of mountains and rivers, the wind surged, and clouds amassed.
·····
anwhile, far away at the Purple Mist Sect, Fang Lin continued to guard over Han Yinyue.
The healing process had reached the final critical phase, whether or not it would be successful depended on this last step.
Fang Lin stood inside the room, looking at Han Yinyue in the wooden barrel, and took out the last Pill.
“Give it to her.” Fang Lin handed the Pill over to Dugu Nian.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Nian took the Pill and administered it to Han Yinyue.
