Chapter 18: Herb Garden (1/2)

”Wahhhhhh”

”The turbulence is insane in this portal compared to last time.”

”Everyone, get closer otherwise you may get separated from us.”

Entering the portal while holding Elder Jing's soft and smooth hand, Yang Wei heard multiple screaming.

'I don't feel any turbulence from this portal which could only mean.' Yang Wei looked at Elder Jing in shock when he figured out why he didn't feel any impact.

Elder Jing has a solemn and serious expression on her face whereas Yang Wei was carefree which means that Elder Jing was protecting herself and Yang Wei at the same time.

Not willing to become a burden and slow her down, Yang Wei tried to increase his qi to form his own barrier before being interrupted.

”Don't bother wasting your qi to form a barrier. The turbulence here is too strong and it wouldn't help me in any way. Just focus on conserving your qi and protect me when we arrived there.” Elder Jing said as she continued to maximum the barrier.

*Bzzz*

The barrier started taking hits as they got closer to the light from the darkness. But Elder Jing wasn't delighted at all as she went for a final push while holding Yang Wei's hand tightly.

*Bang*

Yang Wei and Elder Jing both crashed into the ground as they exited the darkness and finally entered the mystery realm.

”Ugh, this mystery realm is troublesome.” Elder Jing said as she clutched her head from the previous impact before realizing something.

Elder Jing was sitting on top of Yang Wei and Yang Wei didn't know what to say.

”Eh” Yang Wei tried to break the awkward silence but it completely backfired.

*Slap*

Elder Jing used her hand to slap Yang Wei's face before getting up. ”That didn't happen and if this were to spread to a third party then you shall see what awaits you.”

Elder Jing said while activating her Nascent Soul's aura to show Yang Wei the consequences.

”Of course, Elder Jing. Nothing happened and I already forgot about the incident.” Seeing the frightening aura, Yang Wei hurriedly shook his head and bootlicked her.

A nodding expression came from Elder Jing as they finally saw where they landed.

”A herb garden. To think our random spot is a jackpot.” Elder Jing exclaimed in surprise when she saw the multiple rare herbs being grown in this area.

Yang Wei was in awe as well when he saw this herb garden looking like a holy sanctuary, peaceful and serene.

”Look over there Yang Wei, that is a Fire Ginseng and it's 300-500 years old.” Elder Jing exclaimed in an ecstasy manner.

Yang Wei also smiled when he saw Elder Jing being this happy for the first time.

'Heh, to think I will ever get to see such a rare occurrence from Elder Jing is indeed a surprise.' Yang Wei said inwardly until he saw Elder Jing acting extremely weird.

Elder Jing was running without having any guard up and trying to pick up the Fire Ginseng.

'This is unusual.' Yang Wei sensed something was wrong and hurriedly used his movement technique to chase after Elder Jing before holding her down.
