Chapter 469: Chapter 469 Your Life is Mine [The Twelfth Update]
Wu Cheng was inspecting the dicinal materials in the herb garden, all of which were seeds provided by Li Xiaoyao, and which he had never seen before.
dicine God Valley itself was located within a huge Spirit Gathering Array, and this herb garden had been furnished with a new Spirit Gathering Array by Li Xiaoyao. Thus, the spiritual energy of this herb garden was the most abundant, and the growth of the dicinal materials was faster than anywhere else.
“This dicinal herb is jade-green throughout, with a surface as hard as iron, yet within its trunk, a misty erald liquid flows. I have no idea what kind of dicinal herb this is or its uses.” When dicine God Valley first ca under Li Xiaoyao’s control, Wu Cheng was reluctant, but as the seeds provided by Li Xiaoyao grew, his reverence for Li Xiaoyao increased.
When it ca to the understanding of dicinal materials, the people of dicine God Valley may not be the most powerful in the world based on cultivation level, but they unquestionably stood at the pinnacle.
What Wu Cheng couldn’t understand most was where Li Xiaoyao obtained these mysterious seeds?
In his professional opinion, each of these dicinal materials was a rarity, and even within dicine God Valley, there were very few that could compare.
...
“Hmm? Soone is coming?” Wu Cheng’s ears twitched as he heard footsteps and turned to look.
“Mr. Li.” Wu Cheng’s expression changed when he saw the arrival. Li Xiaoyao had co without any prior notice.
Li Xiaoyao stepped forward and introduced, “This is Cheng Yiyi, daughter of the Grand Marshal of the military district of Lu Province.”
“This is Wu Cheng, the Valley Master of dicine God Valley.”
“Nice to et you, Miss Cheng.”
“Nice to et you, Valley Master Wu.”
Li Xiaoyao said, “I have reached a partnership with the Cheng Family, starting from today, all dicinal materials from dicine God Valley will be exported and sold through the Cheng Family.”
Wu Cheng had no objection to this, though it may sound arrogant, dicine God Valley was not in need of money. Since Li Xiaoyao said he wanted to cooperate with the Cheng Family, then they would cooperate, there was no need to upset Li Xiaoyao over such a trivial matter.
Moreover, their lives were currently entirely in the hands of Li Xiaoyao. So even if they wanted to resist, it likely wouldn’t be effective.
“Mr. Li, Miss Cheng, let’s move to the living room,” Wu Cheng suggested.
Li Xiaoyao waved his hand and said, “No need, my primary reason for coming here was to handle this matter. Now that it’s resolved, I should leave.”
He was leaving already?
Cheng Yiyi turned to him as well; she had thought Li Xiaoyao would stay in dicine God Valley for a few days, but he seed in a hurry to leave.
“Valley Master Wu,” Li Xiaoyao looked at him, his expression serious, “In this place, what Cheng Yiyi says is as though I have said it. I hope you will cooperate with her, understand?”
Wu Cheng’s body shook, he nodded and said, “I understand, Mr. Li, rest assured, I will fully cooperate with Miss Cheng’s work.”
“Good,” Li Xiaoyao took out a jade bottle and tossed it over. Wu Cheng hurriedly caught it and asked, “What is this?”
“So pill dicines that will be beneficial to your cultivation level.” Li Xiaoyao turned to leave. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked, “What is the highest grade of alchemist in dicine God Valley?”
“Fourth Grade,” Wu Cheng said, his chin slightly raised, a hint of pride on his face.
A Fourth Grade alchemist, dicine God Valley had no less than five, and such a ranking of alchemist, once the word spread, would likely attract various powers competing to trade with them.
Thinking Li Xiaoyao had so pill dicines that needed to be concocted, Wu Cheng said, “If Mr. Li has any pill prescriptions, dicine God Valley can concoct any pill dicines within the Fourth Grade.”
“Fourth Grade alchemist,” Li Xiaoyao shook his head, letting out a sigh internally.
dicine God Valley was the most powerful alchemist force Li Xiaoyao knew of, yet even so, the strongest among them was only Fourth Grade.
Li Xiaoyao had thought that with the resources of dicine God Valley, there should be Seventh Grade alchemists, but it seed he had overestimated.
“Do you know where in this world there is a Seventh Grade Alchemist?”
“Seventh Grade Alchemist?” Wu Cheng frowned and said, “I have indeed heard of such powerful alchemists, but those few are like divine dragons – you see their heads but not their tails. Finding them is not easy.”
“Is there no way to contact them?”
“No.” Wu Cheng shook his head, this matter was beyond his capabilities.
“Then forget it.” Li Xiaoyao turned to look at Cheng Yiyi and said, “If you encounter troubles you can’t solve, seek out Valley Master Wu.”
Cheng Yiyi nodded gently, and after a few seconds, asked, “When will you co next?”
Li Xiaoyao looked at her unexpectedly, pondered for a few seconds, and then said, “I need to go to a place, if all goes well, at most a month.”
Cheng Yiyi didn’t know where he was going, but from Li Xiaoyao’s expression and tone, she sensed sothing complex and hard to discern. The place he was going to was very dangerous.
“Mr. Li, I’ll go take a look at the other herbs, you two chat at your leisure.” Observing the situation, Wu Cheng didn’t intrude on their conversation.
In the vast dicinal herb garden, only Li Xiaoyao and she remained.
“Then you, be careful.” Cheng Yiyi’s eyes were complex.
Li Xiaoyao suddenly smiled, locking eyes with her: “Are you worried about ?”
“Hmph.” Cheng Yiyi turned her gaze away and said, “Who’s worried about you? I’m just afraid that if you die…your life, it belongs to .”
This woman, even though her heart was concerned, was unwilling to show it, but Li Xiaoyao had already seen the care and worry in the changes of her expression.
“I won’t die.” Saying this, Li Xiaoyao suddenly reached out to embrace her, holding her tightly in his arms.
Their bodies fit together perfectly, and Li Xiaoyao could feel her heart thumping wildly against his chest.
Cheng Yiyi didn’t push him away, allowing him to hold her like this. A stubborn thought buried deep in her heart was beginning to crumble.
“Take good care of yourself.” Leaving behind words laden with care, Li Xiaoyao turned and left.
Watching his sowhat desolate figure, Cheng Yiyi’s eyes misted over. She shouted loudly, “Li Xiaoyao, you’re not allowed to die, your life is mine!”
The breeze was gentle, branches swayed lightly, and Li Xiaoyao, without looking back, waved his hand, trying to make his departing figure appear carefree.
Cheng Yiyi sat on the ground, watching Li Xiaoyao disappear into the distance. A tear hung from her eyelashes as she murmured, “Big idiot, if you dare die, I’ll never forgive you for as long as I live.”
…
Leaving dicine God Valley, Li Xiaoyao traveled on his sword, arriving at Ling City a few hours later.
Li Xiaoyao didn’t imdiately contact Li Tu. He still had many things left undone.
This trip to the Li Family, he had to prepare for the worst.
Such is life in the pugilistic world; you can’t always do as you wish.
All this ti, Li Xiaoyao believed that with the Mysterious System, no one in this world could threaten him. However, the power of those forces exceeded his imagination.
If he were alone, naturally, he wouldn’t need to consider those powers. But he was not alone; he had confidantes and friends. If his absence led to harm to the people around him, Li Xiaoyao would never forgive himself in this lifeti.
The path of cultivation is initially to refine the body, later to refine the mind. If the heart is not at peace, harboring hidden obsessions, then during the Tribulation Transcendence, inner demons will secretly arise.
