22 At Least Tier 4 (1/2)

As they drew closer to the garden, the view began to clear up.

Shi Zhen can somewhat make out the plants and vines' shapes.

He wishes to describe them but there were too many to take in.

Plants and vines grew on top of one another… more supportive of each other than being a hindrance.

It was very similar to a mini jungle.

…

It's not obvious but the garden's herbs have a weak and unsettled layer of color that Shi Zhen couldn't make out in the haze of mist.

He can still tell that the herbs were at least tier 4 because of the existence of the glow.

He swallowed.

Tier 4 herbs were rare but by no means special. It was just... Their Northern ZuanYu's wasn't very well known for their herbal trade… the most they can manage to grow is exactly medial tier 4...

This doesn't mean Shi Zhen never get to see higher tier herbs.

When he was a full-time prince of Northern ZuanYu, he saw up to tier 6 herb!

At the time, his brothers were beside him, their heart burned green of envy, eyeing the herb like prey.

He didn't really understand the importance of higher tier herbs at that age. He just saw his brother greedy eyes and suddenly felt like their tier 4 herbs were somewhat lacking in comparison.

Only when he grew older he finally learns of what the herbs represent.

Elixirs… status, fame, money… so many things.

They don't mean anything to him but his mother would love it!
