Double Cultivation
Purple Qilin
After Su Yang left the place, Lord Xie also returned to the city. However, upon reaching the gate, he was greeted by many people who wanted to know the cause they were ordered to stay inside the city by the guards.
"Y-Your Majesty! Is everything okay ?! Are you hurt?" The guards immediately asked him.
"I'm doing fine. The cause of the phenomenon was over, There was nothing to worry about" Lord Xie said.
"Your Majesty, if I ask, what caused this phenomenon?" People who wanted to know asked him.
"It was just a small quarrel between the two experts, there was nothing worth mentioning" Lord Xie said.
"Just a little fight?"
People were stunned by the unexpected answer. How could a little bit of a quarrel cause this chaotic situation? They thought it was a war between two powerful factions!
"i will apologize for replacing the troublemakers if their quarrel caused inconvenience" Lord Xie said.
But no one said anything. After all, who would dare to make the king himself apologize? Even if Lord Xie was the one causing the commotion, no one dared to complain.
Some time later, when Lord Xie returned home, another figure with a curious face appeared before him.
"Dad, what's going on outside? Is that Senior Brother Su Yang?" Xie Xingfang asked him as he walked through the door.
"… Don't mention her name!" Lord Xie could feel his repressed anger reappearing after hearing his name.
Xie Xingfang frowned and continued, "So that's him ... Is there something going on between the two of you?"
"That bastard was the only person in this world who dared to blatantly disrespect me! He has no respect for my authority or status! If it wasn't for your condition, I would have killed him there!"
"Dad!" Xie Xingfang suddenly shouted, his face filled with anger. "No matter what happens between you and Brother Su Yang, I won't let you hurt him!"
"Hmmm!" Lord Xie only snorted at his words and walked away.
"Dad !!! I warned! If you hurt him, I won't forgive you, even if you're my father!" He yelled at her again.
However, Lord Xie completely ignored him and disappeared.
"… "
A moment later, another figure appeared before Xie Xingfang.
"Xing'er, you really like that young man, huh."
"Grandfather! What are you doing here?!" Xie Xingfang showed a surprised expression after seeing the old man.
"If I don't come out, your father will fight to the death with your friend" he said with a smile.
"My father will fight to the death with Su Yang ?! Why does such a thing happen ?!" Xie Xingfang was completely shocked right now.
"Alright ... here ..." Since there was no harm in letting him know, the old man explained the situation to him.
"Hohs. It's rare to see you angry at others like this, Xing'er." The old man looked at her with a comforted expression.
Xie Xingfang blushed and said, "Yes .. Brother Su Yang is my benefactor and will be my savior. Of course, I'd be mad if he was bullied by one of our men."
"You seem confident that he will heal your body. Why that?" Ask.
"I myself can't explain it well, but there is an aura around him that makes me feel confident just by being around him."
The old man smiled and said, "Such an aura is something that can only be emitted by people who are truly confident in their abilities. Be it arrogance or self-confidence, as long as the individual is strong, he will influence others only with his own aura. This was similar to what a king emitted to his subjects. "
"I understand ..." Xie Xingfang nodded.
"By the way, how's it going? How many items do we still need that are on the list?" The old man suddenly asked her.
"Father returned with the Three Seasons Snake Blood today, which made half of the list complete. We should get two more items next week. However, the three remaining items are all extremely rare items that we have not seen in the past ten years, especially the Demonic Blood Ginseng, since Brother Su Yang said he will handle the Demonic Blood Ginseng, we only need to worry about the two remaining items" Xie Xingfang said.
"What's the name of those two things?" The old man asked.
"I believe it is a poisonous herb called Devil Root and the blood of a unique Purple Qilin beast."
"Qilin Purple, yes ... This will be a problem ..." The old man frowned.
"Why is that, Grandpa?" Xie Xingfang asked with a worried face.
"The Purple Qilin can only be found near the Purple Swamp that is within the Abandoned Forest. However, the problem was not the Qilin itself but rather the deadly environment of the Abandoned Forest. The place was filled with poisonous air that was so deadly that even I could not enter deeply without damaging my cultivation" the old man said.
"That's very dangerous? Then how can we get the Purple Qilin blood?"
"Although I can't go to that forest, it's a different story for you, who has a body that's completely immune to poison."
"W-I…?" Xie Xingfang swallowed nervously.
"Yes. Only you can enter the Abandoned Forest safely. However, I do not recommend it, as you are not a match for the Purple Qilin that is around the 6th level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm."
"Even if it will be dangerous, to obtain the blood of the Qilin, I must leave." Xie Xingfang said.
"Silence, Xing'er. We can talk about that after we gather other things. As for the Devil's Root, you can also find it within the Abandoned Forest. But since it can be found around the outskirts of the forest, we don't have to worry about not being able to reach it. "
Xie Xingfang nodded.
"It's late at night, you have to rest."
"What about you, Grandpa?"
"I'll be staying here any minute. I still have to talk to your dad about some things."
"OKAY. Good night, Grandpa." Xie Xingfang said to him before returning to his room.
