“Really?”
A trace of happiness was revealed on Qiu Nuo’s face. After all, nobody would wish for oneself to have a broken body. Even if she didn’t become a Warrior, it was necessary to heal herself.
“But medicinal herbs that are thousands of years old are very precious. I can’t afford them now.” Qiu Nuo frowned.
“You’re so stupid. Have you forgotten the Spirit Fountain I’ve given you?” Xue Ling couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her.
“Your Spirit Fountain can really stimulate the growth of medicinal herbs?” Qiu Nuo looked at her suspiciously. She still didn’t believe that there would be such a god-defying thing in this world.
“You’re such a pig brain. My Spirit Fountain is a holy product. A holy product, do you understand?! With just a drop of my Spirit Fountain on any medicinal herb, it will be able to increase its age by ten years in one day. In other words, you only need a hundred days to get a large batch of medicinal herbs that are thousands of years old! What Bone Marrow Liquid? Even if you want to gather all the ingredients that can recover your soul power, it could be done easily!” Xue Ling said in dissatisfaction.
There were a lot of pills in the market for Warriors. Only a few types of pills were useful to Soul Masters. Medicine to recover soul power was one of the more popular ones.
“Okay, okay. Don’t get too agitated. I believe you.”
“That’s more like it!”
…
When they reached the Qiu family’s medicinal garden, it was already afternoon.
Ziying Mountain was a half-day journey from Tianluo City. It would take at least four to six hours to reach there even by horse carriage.
Qiu Nuo was very poor now and could only fork out ten silver coins. She naturally didn’t have money to rent a horse carriage.
However, some people didn’t think the same way…
“You useless trash. Why are you here only now? Don’t you know that there’s a big problem with the medicinal field you’re managing?” A girl who looked like she was fifteen or sixteen years old said in an arrogant voice as she wrapped both arms around her chest and blocked Qiu Nuo’s way.
Who knew that Qiu Nuo only looked at her plainly, and a sarcastic cold smile formed at the corner of her lips. “Qiu Ruyi, don’t you know what a busybody is?”
Both Qiu Ruyi and her were in charge of the medicinal field. Regardless of her status in the Qiu family, their positions should be similar in the Qiu family’s medicinal garden. However, Qiu Ruyi always acted superior because she was a Level One Warrior.
To be honest, Qiu Ruyi’s gift was nothing. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been sent to such a place to do hard labor.
Qiu Ruyi was shocked. She never expected that this cowardly and incompetent person would actually rebut her one day. Furthermore, only when she recovered did she realize that she was scolded.
“Qiu Nuo!” Qiu Ruyi sharply roared. “You little slut. You actually dare to scold me. See how I’ll rip off your mouth!”
Seeing that Qiu Ruyi was pouncing toward her with a ferocious expression, Qiu Nuo curved her lips. At the same time, she slightly tilted her body and stretched her right foot…
A loud sound could be heard. Qiu Ruyi, who was initially baring her fangs and brandishing her claws, fell straight to the ground.
“Don’t mess with me in the future!”
After saying these words domineeringly, Qiu Nuo waved her long sleeves and walked toward the medicinal field.
Qiu Ruyi climbed up from the ground, feeling both embarrassed and angry. As she looked at Qiu Nuo’s back view, she gritted her teeth and said with hatred, “Qiu Nuo! I’ll definitely not forget this!”
…
The Qiu family’s medicinal garden was a large area. There were more than one hundred medicinal fields in total. Each field was planted with different medicinal herbs. Most of the herbs were supplied to Zixia Pavilion, which specialized in selling pills.
The medicinal field that Qiu Nuo was managing was planted with pipewort flowers, the main ingredient used for an antidote.
“The damage’s huge!” Xue Ling hovered a few rounds above the medicinal field, then flew back to Qiu Nuo’s shoulder. She analyzed: “Pipewort flowers love the sun and hate the cold. As long as the water used to water pipewort flowers is replaced by cold water, this medicinal field could be easily destroyed and no one would get caught.”
Qiu Nuo frowned tightly when she saw the large field of withered pipewort flowers before her.
“Can it be saved?” She knew the value of this medicinal field clearly. If something really happened, the First Elder might use this opportunity to send her to a far worse place.
For example, the copper mine outside South City. When that happened, she wouldn’t have so much leisure time left to spend on cultivating.
“By right, it can’t be saved. However, to you, it’s actually very simple.” Xue Ling smiled at her mysteriously.
“Continue.”
“You only need to add a few drops of Spirit Fountain to the clear water used to water the pipewort flowers, then add some mineral powder with a fire attribute. Within three days, this batch of pipewort flowers will be revived.” After saying this, Xue Ling didn’t forget to remind her, “Oh, right. Don’t add too many drops of the Spirit Fountain. Otherwise, this batch of pipewort flowers will mature early.”
Qiu Nuo nodded. “That’s easy.”
She had quite a bit of fire attribute mineral powder in her room. After all, it was a must-have to grow pipewort flowers. Even if the First Elder wanted to make things difficult for her intentionally, these necessary things should still be complete.
…
“This is where you stay?” Looking at the small dilapidated hut before her, Xue Ling pouted in disdain.
“I’m not letting you stay here. Why the disdain?” Qiu Nuo rolled her eyes at Xue Ling. She picked up a wooden bucket by the door and was ready to enter the room to collect some fire attribute mineral powder.
However, when she opened the room door and saw the sight before her, she was completely astonished!
Why was there a man lying on her bed?
She didn’t walk into the wrong room, right?!
“The aura of Purple Flame Grass.”
Just when Qiu Nuo was in a daze, Xue Ling’s eyes suddenly lit up and she flew into the house.
As Xue Ling was just a projection, Qiu Nuo wasn’t worried that she would be discovered by others. As such, she also entered the room.
Qiu Nuo walked to the bed. When she saw the man’s looks, she could no longer shift her gaze away.
The man wore a long purple robe with exquisite dark prints on the sleeves. He looked noble and elegant.
Ink-black hair was draped lazily behind his head. A few strands of hair dangled from the edge of the bed, adding to his beauty.
The thing that people couldn’t shift their gaze away from was his exquisite and perfect facial features. It was definitely enough to make everything in this world lose its color!
Qiu Nuo silently commented in her heart that this was an outrageously perfect man.
Also, this was the first time she felt inferior in front of a man because of his looks. What type of feeling was this…
