The two of them were having a great time carrying things around, while Jun Feijue and Di Moyu, who were not interested in these material possessions, found a place to sit down.
Then, one person began cultivating, and the other... began to sleep.
"Miss, doesn't this look like black jade?"
After an unknown amount of time, Jin Yue and Ji Fanya finally stopped and placed an open, exquisite little wooden box in front of Jun Feijue.
Jun Feijue looked up and saw a small mountain of items piled up in front of her, taller than herself.
Turning my head, I finally saw the small box.
"Yes, it's Xuan Yu."
After the heavens and earth verified it, Jun Feijue nodded and said, "It seems that the Zhou family is the one who discovered and set up the formation."
"So that's how it is. I was wondering why the Zhou family would think of setting up a base in such a remote town and sending so many experts over."
Jin Yue then said with a look of realization, "They must have found it by accident while looking for Miss, but when they realized they couldn't take the jade ointment with them, they set up an array to go back and ask for help."
"Hey, your maid is quite clever; your deduction is quite plausible."
Heaven and Earth nodded approvingly, then their gaze sharpened slightly as they said, "However, there is still one question..."
"There's another point of doubt. If they really did discover the Jade Ointment Pool, even if they couldn't take the Jade Ointment, they could still take the Mysterious Jade."
Before Tiandi could finish speaking, Jun Feijue interjected, "But the Xuan Jade in the pool is perfectly fine. At the very least, we can send outstanding members of the clan to consume the jade paste for cultivation. Why sit on this mountain of treasures and not touch a single piece?"
"This kid is just as smart as me; he stole what I was about to say."
Upon hearing this, Tiandi glared at him irritably before saying, "So, the most likely explanation is that they obtained this Xuan Jade from someone else, but they still don't know the whereabouts of the Jade Ointment Pool."
"My clothes."
At this moment, Jun Feijue suddenly spoke up, "These are the feathers of a level three high-ranking magical beast called 'Xiong Niao'. Perhaps it was originally responsible for guarding that Jade Ointment Pool."
"A level three...three...three-level high-grade magical beast!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Yue was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. "Miss, that is a being comparable to a peak ninth-level True Profound Realm expert among humans. In our royal kingdom, who could possibly kill it?"
"Didn't you say it yourself, that it's comparable to the True Profound Realm?"
Jun Feijue said calmly, "The one who killed it was naturally a True Profound Realm expert."
"If that's the case, then it makes perfect sense."
Ji Fanya frowned and said, "That True Profound Realm expert discovered this Jade Ointment Pool and fought with the guardian demon beast. He won by a narrow margin but was seriously injured. So he temporarily sealed the pool with an array, intending to go back and recover before trying to retrieve it. Unfortunately, the Zhou family happened to run into him."
"Then what about this fur and feather? Why is it in the hands of that shopkeeper?"
Jin Yue couldn't help but ask, "Logically speaking, the Zhou family shouldn't be unable to discern the value of this fur."
"Ask the shopkeeper."
Jun Feijue frowned and asked, "Go back?"
"No, Miss, we must return to the family as soon as possible, otherwise Madam's health will definitely not be able to withstand it."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yue immediately objected, "The truth is no longer important. Anyway, the Zhou family doesn't know the exact location of the Jade Ointment Pool. As for the rest, it has nothing to do with us."
"Girl, if you want to know the truth, you'll have another chance when you come back to retrieve the elixir in six months."
