Chapter 295: A Woman Who Isn’t Disagreeable
Before long, Fang Lingfei entered the room.
Fang Lingfei, dressed in a fitted outfit, appeared clean and sharp.
"Young Master Ye, thank you for seeing me! I have two purposes for coming!"
Fang Lingfei was efficient in her dealings, which Ye Qingtian didn’t mind.
"Speak!"
"First, this is actually our official meeting today, and the marriage proposal feels utterly absurd to me. From what I know about you, Young Master Ye, you definitely wouldn’t like it either, right?"
Fang Lingfei glanced at Ye Qingtian.
"Yes!"
Ye Qingtian nodded.
"I also dislike these marriage proposals! They’re usually for networking or even trading. If you don’t mind, Young Master Ye, we can start as ordinary friends."
Fang Lingfei said cautiously.
In recent days, she had somewhat understood Ye Qingtian.
For ordinary people, not to mention being his friend, just getting close to him is difficult.
Ye Qingtian was taken aback; Fang Lingfei was different from the other girls he had encountered, without an air of superiority or self-importance.
"Alright!"
Ye Qingtian agreed.
"The second thing is to convey a message from my father to Young Master Ye."
Fang Lingfei continued to look at Ye Qingtian: "Although the Wangyue Pavilion seems to be a law enforcer in the Mortal World’s Martial Arts Dao, its main responsibility is actually to protect Huaxia, such as cultivating more talents and reviving the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm. The training in the Hidden Tower is the best proof. As the Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion, my father has another identity, called the Hidden Dragon Guard. The Hidden Dragon Guard can be considered the Guardian God of Huaxia. Now my father hopes that you will take over his position and become the new Hidden Dragon Guard."
You could see from Fang Lingfei’s gaze that she had great admiration for her father, or rather, being a Hidden Dragon Guard was a supreme honor.
Ye Qingtian shook his head: "I will not become a Hidden Dragon Guard. You should have some understanding of me; I definitely don’t like being bound."
Fang Lingfei’s eyes gleamed, and she couldn’t help but laugh: "Actually, I think Young Master Ye would be most suited to the true Martial Arts Realm! That is where you truly belong!"
"Oh? The true Martial Arts Realm?"
Ye Qingtian was stunned for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Previously, Young Master Ye had already probed the foundation of the Japan Martial Arts Realm, but compared to the Huaxia Martial Arts Realm, it really is not worth mentioning. If you count the Wangyue Pavilion as a Martial Arts Sect, its strength can only be considered a mix of the Martial Arts Realm and the Mortal World, not truly a Martial Arts Realm power."
Fang Lingfei explained.
Ye Qingtian smiled: "I see."
However, Ye Qingtian had no interest in any Martial Arts Realm.
He currently only wanted to accomplish two things: first, to find Du Xuening, and second, to find the group that stole the Magic Box.
In fact, earlier, Ye Qingtian had set up an array in Tianjing, so once any Demonic Qi appeared, he would know immediately.
Although no materials were used in the array, Ye Qingtian had carved it with the Power of the Stars, making it undetectable.
During these two days, however, the Du Family received many gifts.
In the afternoon, Du Wenyuan’s classmate Zhou Zefang arrived, secretively carrying a few ornate boxes.
"I heard that uncle and aunt’s health isn’t great, so I specially brought some elixirs. It is said that these elixirs are made by the Immortal Medicine King Valley and are priceless spirit medicine!"
Zhou Zefang said mysteriously.
When the ornate box was opened, a rich medicinal fragrance immediately filled the air.
Du Lijun, Du Wenyuan, and a few others felt refreshed and invigorated.
"Truly Divine Medicine! Just a whiff makes one feel completely transparent!"
Du Lijun was delighted beyond measure.
"They are indeed elixirs made by the Medicine King Valley!"
Just then, Fang Lingfei was also present, and she couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Medicine King Valley?"
Everyone was surprised.
"A true sect of the Martial Arts Realm, although we usually refer to it as the Hidden Sect. Medicine King Valley is regarded as mostly secluded from the Mortal World, though many Outer Disciples are active in the Mortal World. I imagine these elixirs must have been made by disciples from the Medicine King Valley in the Mortal World."
Fang Lingfei explained.
"Even elixirs made by Outer Disciples are this potent? Truly deserving of being an Immortal Sect!"
Du Lijun laughed.
Yet he saw Ye Qingtian frowning and couldn’t help but ask: "Qingtian, is there something wrong with these elixirs?"
"Do you want me to be honest?"
"Go ahead!"
"If you ask me, they’re all trash!"
Ye Qingtian sneered.
Meanwhile, an idea popped into his mind.
He needed to concoct some elixirs for his grandfather and also prepare a gift for Du Xuening.
He couldn’t help but ask: "Does anyone know of a place where superior medicinal herbs are cultivated?"
"I know. I have a friend who owns a place called Wuliang Mountain, where the hills are covered with medicine fields, and all the medicinal herbs there are top-notch."
Zhou Zefang immediately responded.
"Where is that place?"
Ye Qingtian asked.
"It’s not far, actually. It’s in a place called Beihua. By car, it’s about six or seven hours away."
Zhou Zefang said.
"Alright, then take me there!"
"When?"
"Today." Zhou Zefang nodded: "Alright, Young Master Ye. My friend recently obtained a South Sea Immortal Ganoderma. It’s perfect timing for us to go."
In the afternoon, Ye Qingtian and Zhou Zefang set off on the journey to Wuliang Mountain.
"I never expected a place so rich in Spiritual Qi to exist."
Looking at the misty Wuliang Mountain, Ye Qingtian couldn’t help but express his amazement.
"Young Master Ye, please get out of the car."
Halfway through the journey, Zhou Zefang said.
"Hmm?"
Ye Qingtian looked puzzled.
"Young Master Ye, my friend is someone who values peace and quiet. He doesn’t want modern tools like cars entering his domain."
Zhou Zefang explained.
"Your friend seems to have character; I suppose he won’t disappoint me."
Ye Qingtian praised, alighting from the car to walk alongside Zhou Zefang.
"Haha, indeed. My friend has quite a peculiar temper. He might give someone with a compatible temperament precious medicinal herbs for free. If not, even a fortune wouldn’t persuade him to sell his herbs!"
"Haha, now I’m intrigued."
Ye Qingtian chuckled.
But just then, a few off-road vehicles arrived behind them.
These people seemed to know the rules of the owner of Wuliang Mountain and also parked halfway to proceed on foot.
The group consisted of about a dozen people.
But eventually, ten or so waited here.
Only five continued up the mountain.
Leading them was a middle-aged man, followed by a young man and a woman.
Two other men, around thirty years old, followed behind them.
They were Half-Step Martial King martial artists.
Ye Qingtian immediately recognized the cultivation of the two guards.
These people appeared far from ordinary.
With guards who were Half-Step Martial Kings, their foundational strength definitely rivaled the elite families of Tianjing.
"Gentlemen, are you also heading to Wuliang Mountain?"
This group quickened their pace and approached Ye Qingtian.
Ye Qingtian replied coldly: "This path only leads to Wuliang Mountain."
