Ji Fengyao dropped the half-collected stone shelf beside her and said to Xique behind her, "Xique, collect this half for me."

"Alright, Miss!" Magpie's voice came from further back.

Shang Xiye looked at the little female bandit who flashed past him and asked in confusion, "Little wife, where are you going?"

"Let's go find something good!"

As Ji Fengyao answered, she had already reached the center of a row of stone shelves at the very back of the stone chamber.

She crouched down and reached out to lift the bottom wooden box, revealing a dozen or so crystal-clear jade bottles inside.

One of the jade bottles was lying askew, with a very fine crack at the neck of the bottle, and most of the milky white liquid inside, which looked like nectar, had leaked out.

Damn, what a waste!

Such a great item was missed!

Upon seeing this, Ji Fengyao felt pain in her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys; she quickly took out a new jade bottle from her storage space and filled it with the nectar from the broken jade bottle.

As soon as the nectar was poured out, the entire stone chamber was filled with a sweet fragrance.

The magpie and Wuhen, who were feeling dizzy, smelled the fragrance and immediately felt relaxed, even more comfortable than after taking a hot bath.

Shang Xiye walked over and saw what Ji Fengyao was holding. He subconsciously uttered a name: "Earth Marrow?"

"Hmm! Earth marrow, the essence of the earth, is something that can only be encountered by chance. I never expected that the Chen family would actually find so much earth marrow. Master..." Ji Fengyao was so excited that she almost mispronounced the title. She looked up at Shang Xiye and said happily, "Your Highness, with these earth marrows, your soul recovery speed will be at least three times faster!"

"Since it's such a good thing, why didn't the Chen family eat it themselves?" Shang Xiye found it a bit strange.

Ji Fengyao thought for a moment and guessed, "They must have eaten it, otherwise the Chen family wouldn't have had a patriarch with outstanding martial arts skills to lead the family in every generation. However, it is very risky for ordinary people to eat earth marrow. If they are not careful, they will explode and die. So they were probably frightened and did not give it to their clansmen in large quantities. They only took some out for the selection of a new patriarch in each generation."

"Miss, what is this? It smells so good! My head doesn't feel stuffy anymore!" Xique and Wuhen also came over curiously.

"This is Earth Essence. Here, you and Wuhen each take a bottle." Ji Fengyao took two jade bottles and handed them to Xique and Wuhen respectively: "Take one drop every half month, mix it with two bowls of water and drink it. It can increase your soul power and improve your physique; but you must not eat too much, otherwise your blood vessels will bulge and you will explode and die."

The magpie gladly accepted.

Wuhen glanced at Shang Xiye, but declined, saying, "This... let's keep it for the Prince; the Prince is injured..."

Seeing this, Xique also wanted to return it: "Then, I don't want it either, I'll give it to my son-in-law to heal his injuries."

“Since it was given to you by the Princess, you should accept it,” Shang Xiye said with a gentle gaze.

Ji Fengyao felt a warmth in her heart.

But if she doesn't die in four years, given the loyalty of Xi Que and the four Dark Guards, they will most likely follow her and Shang Xiye to the Danling Continent.

They treated her and Shang Xiye with utmost sincerity;

She and her master would treat them with the utmost care and love.

Ji Fengyao pushed the jade bottle back from Xique's hand, speaking gently: "There are still so many here, enough for the prince to recover. Not only you, but also Wuying, Wushang and Wuzhong. You are the prince's and my trusted men. The stronger you are, the stronger the prince and I are. We are all one."
