[Ayuan...] He started, but Zhen Yuan shook his head.
[Let’s talk when we go back.] He said.
After that, the group found an inn and booked three rooms.
Soon after, Yang Shi, Feng Xue, and Li Wenqiang sneaked into Zhen Yuan’s and Shen Xu’s room before entering the space.
"We probably can’t leave for the time being." Shen Xu sighed, flopping on a sofa in the peach garden.
Previously, the peach garden rest area had a long table and ten stools.
However, Shen Xu felt the seats weren’t good for lazing around, so he refined some sofas. That way, he could lie down and relax whenever he wanted.
After settling on the sofa, the double turned to Zhen Yuan.
"Ayuan, did you also receive that voice transmission?" He asked, and Zhen Yuan nodded.
"What voice transmission?" Yang Shi asked in a curious voice.
"Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang want to meet." Shen Xu revealed, and Yang Shi subconsciously frowned.
He had been with Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan since the beginning.
Because of this, he knew his master and lord Zhen didn’t get along with Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang.
In fact, the relationship could be described as antagonistic.
"Master, we are in disguise. How did they recognise us?" He asked after thinking about it.
Shen Xu sighed when he heard the question.
He suspected Zhu Huang’s system could see through their disguise, but he didn’t reveal this matter. Instead, he turned to Zhen Yuan.
"Ayuan, what do you think? Should we meet them?"
"Do you want to meet them?"
Shen Xu didn’t answer right away.
On one hand, he didn’t want to have anything to do with the main protagonist, but on the other, he was a little curious.
After all, the two sides were open enemies and couldn’t tolerate each other.
"I am curious." He finally said.
"Okay."
"Okay?"
"I already agreed to a meeting." Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu couldn’t help but glare at the man.
Seeing the glare, Zhen Yuan chuckled and rubbed his lover’s hair.
"I knew you would be curious. Also..."
"Also?"
"I want to find out what else they can see through." Zhen Yuan said with a solemn expression.
Discovering their identity was a small thing.
However, if Zhu Huang’s system could see through their cultivation level, spiritual roots, treasures, and other secrets, Zhen Yuan wanted to strike first before their group fell into trouble.
"I get it." Shen Xu nodded, also with a solemn expression.
"When is the meeting?" He asked.
"Twenty days from now in Sword Tower City."
Shen Xu frowned when he heard the meeting would be in Sword Tower City.
"Wind Cliff is in the Sword Tower territory; just a few kilometres from the city." He said, and Zhen Yuan nodded.
After the exchange meeting, Dongfang Jing and Chen Yi didn’t stay in Inscription Tower City.
Instead, they took the city’s teleportation formation and headed to the Sword Tower territory, intending to refine their bodies at the wind cliff.
"Don’t worry. Dongfang Jing and Chen Yi are not weak. They will be safe in the Wind Cliff." Zhen Yuan said, but suddenly turned thoughtful.
"What’s the matter?"
"We didn’t give them the gold element crystal."
Hearing this, Shen Xu sighed before speaking.
"We have agreed to rendezvous in one hundred years. It won’t be too late to give it to them then." He said.
After that, Shen Xu took out the auction items and placed them on the table.
At the same time, he summoned Xiaomu, Xiaolei, and Xiaoren.
"Master, what..." Xiaolei started but suddenly stopped.
A moment later, he jumped onto the table and grabbed the lightning marrow stone.
"This is mine." He declared, and Shen Xu rolled his eyes.
"No one is fighting you for it." He said.
After saying that, Shen Xu turned to the little ginseng.
"Xiaoren, can you grow these?" He asked, pushing three things in front of the little ginseng.
One of the things was the blood ginseng fruit they got in exchange for six cloud-seeking fruits.
"Master, I can grow the blood ginseng, but it needs to be watered with level seven monster blood."
Shen Xu frowned when he heard this.
They had some level six but no level seven monster blood.
Considering this, he sighed but still pushed the blood ginseng fruit to Xiaoren.
"Take care of it for the time being. We will try to get some level seven monster blood." He said before pointing to the remaining two things.
"The morning mist tea isn’t hard to grow." Xiaoren said and scooped some tea leaves from the container.
"These are enough to grow a field of tea shrubs. Master, you can use the rest to brew tea."
"Got it." Shen Xu said and put away the remaining tea leaves.
A moment later, he opened the box of seeds, and several gasps were immediately heard.
"This is also mine." Xiaolei said, reaching for one of the seeds.
Unfortunately, Xiaoren was faster and took the seed before Xiaolei could take it.
"Master, this is the seed of the divine lightning tree." Xiaoren informed, and Shen Xu couldn’t help but be surprised.
From what he knew, there were three primordial trees and twelve sacred trees. The divine lightning tree was one of the sacred trees.
As the name suggested, the divine lightning tree could produce endless lightning.
Most importantly, this lightning was extraordinary and was not only useful for body refining but also beneficial to lightning element spiritual root cultivators.
Additionally, its wood was best for refining lightning-type weapons and evil warding treasures.
"This is a good find." Shen Xu happily exclaimed. Follow current novels on novel※fire.net
"Master, I want to eat it." Xiaolei said, but Shen Xu snorted in disgust before grabbing the fire and throwing it several metres away.
"Eat, eat, what else can you do?’ The double taunted and quickly continued.
"We are planting it." He declared.
After planting, the divine lightning tree would absorb the lightning in the lightning area of the space, but it would also release a more powerful lightning.
Eventually, the tree would bear fruit, and these fruits could be used for body refining and to improve the cultivation of lightning spiritual root cultivators.
Additionally, cultivating on the tree would cleanse Xiaolei’s lightning, hence purifying its fire.
"Don’t be greedy." Xiaomu admonished, glaring at Xiaolei.
Hearing this, Xiaolei buzzed around in restlessness but soon calmed down.
"Xiaoren, what about the other seeds?" Shen Xu asked, but Xiaoren shook his head.
"Some are dead, and the others aren’t too special. I will plant what I can."
After dealing with the box of seeds, Shen Xu turned to the stone slab.
