After saying that, Lan Ziye pretended to be calm but walked away as if he was escaping.

The corners of Chu Xixuan's mouth rose slightly, his face full of pampering and indulgence.

After running a hundred meters, Lan Ziye's heart, which had been beating like a deer, finally calmed down a little.

She opened the booklet Chu Xixuan gave her and turned to the folded page to read it carefully. It would have been fine if she hadn't read it, but she was really surprised when she saw it. The so-called Linxian grass turned out to be the spirit-gathering grass cultivated by her third brother.

She remembered that one of her brother's pets, a little bamboo monster, was attacked and seriously injured while playing outside. The monster's roots were unstable and it could not return to human form. The eldest brother planted it on the hill in the backyard, but the hill was lacking spiritual energy. The third brother cultivated spirit gathering grass and planted it around the little bamboo monster to provide it with spiritual power. Unexpectedly, the little grass cultivated by the third brother on a whim became famous today, three thousand years later, and was given the nice name of Linxiancao.

Lan Ziye looked up at the sky, wondering whether he should be proud or not now that his third brother knew about it.

As the name suggests, the spirit gathering grass gathers spiritual energy, but it does not produce spiritual energy itself. Three thousand years ago when spiritual energy was abundant, this spirit gathering grass was a treasure. But now that spiritual energy is thin, how much spiritual energy can the spirit gathering grass gather?

Lan Ziye sighed inwardly, released his spiritual consciousness and began to search.

"Student Lan!" Just then Zhu Ning and Zhu Fei came over, and Zhu Ning said, "Can we join you?"

"But this time we are acting as individuals. Going in groups... isn't that good?" Lan Ziye hesitated. She didn't want to be accused of breaking the rules and not give them credits. She still wanted to get extra points!

Zhu Ning lowered his head and said cautiously, "I have a special sensitivity to plants. I think... I can help you get first place!"

"Yes! Although we are acting alone, it doesn't mean we can't cooperate!" Zhu Fei also said.

She didn't want to miss any opportunity to build a good relationship with Lan Ziye.

Lan Ziye smiled and said, "No need. I can find the Linxiancao myself!" Then, she looked at Zhu Ning sincerely and said, "You don't want all your classmates to think that you rely on me for everything, do you? This is a great opportunity for you to show yourself. Acting alone, you can prove yourself!" After a pause, she said solemnly, "Rather than just blindly following my shadow, I hope you can become a partner as strong as me!"

"As powerful as you?" Zhu Ning was a little confused.

Zhu Fei was shocked. She hadn't expected Zhu Ning to be the useless person she had thought him to be. But was he as powerful as Lan Ziye? How could that be possible?

"What? You don't have confidence in yourself?" Lan Ziye asked with a raised eyebrow.

Seeing that Zhu Ning was still confused, her face suddenly became serious and she said seriously: "Then start with what you are best at!"

Zhu Ning finally understood what Lan Ziye meant. His expression became firm, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Lan, don't worry. I will definitely work hard and strive to become what you expect me to be!"

Lan Ziye smiled with relief.

Zhu Ning thought for a moment and said, "Then we won't form a team this time. I'll go into the mountain first!"

Lan Ziye continued to nod with satisfaction, and then saw Zhu Ning walking up the mountain.

Zhu Ning is not really needed to find the Spirit Gathering Grass, but it is also true that he hopes Zhu Ning can become stronger. Lan Ziye narrowed his eyes: It seems that I have to hurry up and help Zhu Ning find out the reason why his body is useless.
