Then a handsome man with a folding fan in one hand, wearing a green robe and a white jade crown on his head, came over with a smile on his face. The man's thin lips parted slightly, and a distant smile appeared in his eyes.
He was flanked by two guards.
He glanced at Leng Qingning. With his countless experiences in dealing with women, he immediately recognized that she was a woman disguised as a man. However, it was a pity that this woman had a good figure and her appearance was really rather crude.
"Second Young Master, it's not that I don't want to sell it to you, it's that the Sea God Mirror has already been sold." The shopkeeper looked at Leng Qingning with some embarrassment. Although he didn't want to offend the Chen family, the Qibing Pavilion also had its own rules, and he couldn't break the rules.
This is also the reason why Qibing Pavilion has been able to develop to its current state.
Chen Shaoqian suddenly understood and said in a good-tempered manner, "So that's how it is."
"The Poseidon Mirror is of great use to the Chen family. The Chen family urgently needs the Poseidon Mirror to get rid of the evil sea monster. I can give you more compensation, but I wonder if you can...where is the person?" Just as Chen Shaoqian turned around, the girl dressed as a man disappeared under his nose. He was in the early stage of the Golden Core cultivation, but he didn't even notice when the girl in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment left?
A gloomy look flashed across Chen Shaoqian's eyes. The shopkeeper saw the sinister look that flashed across his eyes, but remained calm.
The two guards received Chen Shaoqian's gaze and chased after him.
I've heard for a long time that although the second son of the Chen family appears kind, he is actually very narrow-minded. Seeing him today, I found it to be true.
Leng Qingning naturally knew that Chen Shaoqian had sent people to follow her, but she had practiced the Ghost Step, and her movements were mysterious and unpredictable. The two guards could not catch up with her. She had memorized the map of the island by heart, and deliberately went around in circles, and soon shook off the two tails behind her.
"How is it? Have you found out who she is?" Chen Shaoqian shook the folding fan in his hand. The servant who had found out the news knelt in front of him respectfully, his eyes looking uneasy.
"Replying to Second Young Master, that person was extremely vigilant, and his movements were mysterious and unpredictable. I, I lost him..."
Chen Shaoqian slammed the table beside him, and the two servants were so scared that they trembled all over.
"Hmph, what a useless piece of trash, you can't even do such a simple thing!" Where did this woman come from? She actually bought the Poseidon Mirror. Their Chen family spent a lot of money to buy the Poseidon Mirror, but this woman bought it without even blinking an eye.
No, this Poseidon Mirror must belong to their Chen family!
Chen Shaoqian put away his folding fan, a gloomy look on his handsome face. "No matter what means you use, you must find out the identity of this woman for me. If you have any clues, you must tell me immediately. The Sea God Mirror can only belong to the Chen family!"
"Yes." The two men retreated in fear.
Chen Shaoqian held his forehead with one hand, and suddenly remembered what Chen San had told him. Yesterday, the fishermen on the island suddenly saw a very beautiful woman. The woman's clothes were very different from the clothes on their island. She must be an outsider.
No, they should not be the same person. This woman looks so vulgar, maybe she has changed her appearance?
After shaking off the two tails, Leng Qingning circled around for a long time before stepping into the forest with peace of mind to start collecting herbs.
Today she stole the Poseidon Mirror from Chen Shaoqian, and the Chen family would definitely investigate her. Although she had known the consequences of doing so for a long time, she did not regret it, because the Poseidon Mirror was worth the risk.
Leng Qingning then opened the blueprint of the island she had bought in the library. The blueprint was very detailed and there would be basically no mistakes if she followed the instructions. For example, in this dark place, she quickly found Han Yantao based on the markings on the blueprint.
Only the last kind of Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng was left. Leng Qingning found the rocks near the east side of the island according to the map. Below the rocks was the deep blue surging sea, which kept hitting the cliff vigorously.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw a purple spiritual plant growing at the foot of the cliff, with a purple ginseng-like fruit on it. This was the Nine-Curved Spiritual Ginseng, which was one of the main ingredients of the Recovery Pill.
Although Leng Qingning was very surprised, she did not go forward to pick the plants immediately. Generally, there are guardian spiritual beasts around precious spiritual plants, so one must be more careful, otherwise they will be attacked by the guardian spiritual beasts, and may be injured at best or even killed at worst.
Perhaps because Leng Qingning was too cautious and reluctant to go over, the sea eagle hiding on the rock could no longer hold back. It opened its pointed beak, had red eyes, flapped its sharp wings, and showed its claws as it swooped down towards her.
In an instant, more than a dozen silver-white silk threads flashed coldly in the sunlight, piercing through the left half of the sea eagle's wing, and bright red blood dripped onto the rock along the silk threads.
"ah--"
The sea eagle shook its body violently, uttering sharp and piercing screams, and tried to struggle free, but every time it twitched its body, it felt a piercing pain in its wings.
Leng Qingning took the opportunity to pull the other end of the thread guide and threw the sea eagle back and forth on the rock. The poor sea eagle was knocked unconscious by her before it could break free from the restraint of the thin thread. In order to kill it while it was weak, Leng Qingning took out the newly bought Mo Lan sword to put an end to it.
Unexpectedly, this guy was so cunning that he suddenly swooped down and attacked her eyes.
Fortunately, Leng Qingning was prepared. She grabbed one of its wings and swung it to the side, causing it to fall onto a sharp rock.
The poor sea eagle was about to show its claws to attack and resist when Leng Qingning threw it to the ground. Stars appeared in its eyes and it opened its mouth weakly, sticking out its tongue and rolling its eyes.
This human female cultivator is so scary and so cruel.
The poor sea eagle was thrown to death by Leng Qingning before it could even resist. In order to prevent this gangster from cheating her like he just did, Leng Qingning stabbed it again. Only then did she feel at ease to pick the Nine-Bend Spiritual Ginseng and keep it in a spiritual box specially used to store spiritual medicines.
Just as she put away the elixir and was about to go home, she saw three more people suddenly behind her. The old man in the lead looked at her with a curious expression.
Seeing Leng Qingning frown slightly, the old man suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master, are you an alchemist?"
Leng Qingning nodded. She could be considered an entry-level expert. In her heart, she was actually thinking about the old man's intention. What was the purpose of the old man's sudden approach?
Seeing her nod, the old man's smile widened. "That's great. I'm the steward of the island master's mansion. The second young master of the island has been in a coma for years due to an illness. Only the Soul-Restoring Pill can save him. The island master has been looking for various talented alchemists on the island to refine the Soul-Restoring Pill. Unfortunately, alchemists are extremely rare. I hope you can do me a favor. If you can succeed, the island master will definitely reward you greatly. If you fail, the island master will not blame you."
Leng Qingning was overjoyed. She had been struggling to figure out how to get into the Island Master's Mansion, so here was her chance. However, refining the Soul-Restoring Pill wasn't easy. The book did have a recipe for it, and she had to successfully refine it within seven days.
