Chapter 220 - Chapter 220: Chapter 215: Cleansing Spirit Liquid_2 (2/2)
“Don’t overthink it…”
At this moment, Li Tangyu spoke up.
“Right now, the people from the three major sects are still searching for traces of the demon cultivator within the secret realm.”
“Even without the threat of demon cultivators, I’m afraid that the Cleansing Spirit Pool won’t be opened to us for the time being…”
Upon hearing this, several people nodded in agreement.
“Indeed…”
“It’s not that simple…”
Just then, a knock came from the door.
“Young Master Zhang, your dishes are ready.”
Following that, the door opened, and several servants walked in, arranging the beautifully prepared dishes on the table.
“Everyone, please enjoy your meal!”
After the servants finished speaking, they left with their group.
“Everyone, let’s start…”
As Zhang Yuan’s voice trailed off, everyone began to eat…
After eating for a while.
Li Qingqing looked towards Ning Yue and asked:
“Sister Ning…”
“Since you’ve returned, I haven’t had the chance to ask you. How did the negotiation with the Elixir Valley Heir at the black market go yesterday?”
Besides Zhang Yuan…
Everyone else was also aware of Ning Yue’s situation and turned their heads curiously towards her.
Even Zhang Yuan, upon hearing about the Elixir Valley Heir, was filled with curiosity and turned to look at Ning Yue.
“We have already handed over the seed to the Elixir Valley Heir, and he has taken it back for inspection by the seniors of the Elixir Valley.”
“As for the outcome, we’ll have to wait until we meet again in three days.”
Huang Qingling then spoke up:
“If the Elixir Valley is involved, there shouldn’t be any problems, right?”
Ning Yue shook her head and said:
“I’m not sure, we’ll just have to wait and see in three days.”
“That’s all we can do for now…” Li Tangyu said.
The group carried on their conversation one phrase at a time, with Zhang Yuan looking utterly confused.
Seeing this, Li Tangyu quickly explained to Zhang Yuan the matter between the Ning Family and the Yun Family…
After understanding the full story, Zhang Yuan then said:
“It’s really hard to say with this matter…”
“However, since the Elixir Valley is capable of producing a large amount of Pure Elixirs, they must certainly have some experts who are proficient in cultivating Spirit Plants. Maybe there is indeed a way to resolve this issue.”
After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, Li Qingqing again asked:
“By the way, Sister Ning…”
“For this restoration of the fruit, what compensation did the Elixir Valley Heir ask from you?”
Ning Yue said:
“He hasn’t asked for any compensation yet…”
“He only said to let the senior from Elixir Valley look at it first, and after the senior proficient in Spirit Plant cultivation has seen it, he will decide.”
“However…”
“The old ancestor is already preparing the compensation.”
After hearing this, Li Tangyu thought for a moment, then gave his opinion:
“Since it’s a senior proficient in Spirit Plant cultivation, I think it’s better to give some rare Spirit Plants as compensation…”
Upon the conclusion of Li Tangyu’s words, Ning Yue immediately nodded in response:
“The old ancestor thinks the same, which is why he made a quick trip back to Linxian City. It’s for this very matter…”
“So that’s it. I was wondering why Elder Ning left in such a hurry…”
Li Tangyu said.
After finishing the conversation, they changed the topic and discussed a bit more.
Finally.
As the moon rose to the treetops, everyone saw the night was getting late and quickly ended the banquet.
Afterwards…
Lin Jing and Huang Qingling bid farewell to the group and headed towards the outer city.
Inside the inner city, where the lights were bright, it hadn’t felt like much.
Only upon entering the outer city, with the shops on both sides of the street closed and almost no pedestrians on the road, did the surroundings become very quiet…
The two walked along the way back.
Huang Qingling looked up at the moon and couldn’t help but exclaim:
“What a beautiful moon…”
Lin Jing looked up as well.
It was a full moon tonight.
It appeared slightly larger than usual, and upon that moon, there seemed to be the vague silhouette of an Immortal Palace.
It made one wonder whether this world had that beautiful legend or not.
“I suddenly feel…”
Lin Jing, whose thoughts were drifting, suddenly heard Huang Qingling’s voice near his ear.
He quickly came back to reality and turned to look at Huang Qingling.
“What…?”
At that moment…
Huang Qingling was still looking up at the moon, seemingly oblivious to Lin Jing’s words.
But…
Then her voice rose again.
“I feel…”
“That I don’t quite fit in with this world. It’s as if I was not born to be part of this world…”
