Although Jiang Yi hadn't spent much time with Wu Chenxi, he knew that she was protective of her own and didn't hold back when it came to Xiangyun.
Based on this alone, Jiang Yi respected her as an elder. Now he understood Xiangyun's meaning and was willing to help her improve her cultivation.
It seems he needs to make a trip to the countryside to see if he knows where some of the old traditional Chinese medicine doctors have been sent down.
These people have practiced medicine all their lives, and they must have a backup plan when it comes to medicinal materials, so this is the only way to approach the problem.
These people are so afraid of being tricked that he'd probably have to personally intervene to get them to produce the medicinal herbs.
I had originally planned to continue my trip to Haishi after finishing this busy period, but it seems I'll have to give it up.

Wu Chenxi returned three days later, saying, "We found the place, but it's a bit tricky."
The enemy was cunning; they made the last point the focal point of their formation, and then set up several other arrays around it. If I hadn't spent days wandering around the area, calculating the exact location to reach the very center, I wouldn't have been able to see what was happening from the air.
Hua Xiangyun: "Are those formations easy to break?"
"I came back so late because I studied it carefully. Although it was difficult, it's not impossible to try."
After all, their Heavenly Array Sect specializes in array formations. Even if she hadn't touched them, many of the ancient books collected by her grandfather contained records of them.
With his teachings and her own cultivation, she has ideas on how to break those formations. After she studies them carefully, she should be able to do it.
This is such a good opportunity to teach my apprentice a lesson.
“But I’ll have to take charge of the core of this formation myself. That means it won’t be so easy for you and Jiang Yi to deal with those formations at the same time.”
After all, the locations are all some distance apart, and the time spent breaking the formation cannot be too long. "We still need to find help."
This is a bit of a dilemma. A sect that can set up such a formation must be well-versed in formations, which means that those formation masters cannot be easily disturbed.
Because she can't distinguish between friend and foe, and all her preparations might be in vain.
Hua Xiangyun didn't disturb Wu Chenxi's thinking. She had only heard Wu Chenxi talk about the sorcerers in this world, but she didn't know much about them. Her master had to analyze who was suitable for the task.
"Let me inquire first," Wu Chenxi recalled a piece of news she had heard during her trip. "I heard that the higher-ups are reorganizing the Xuanmen again, and they may have to do a new round of statistics soon. I have already asked Uncle Jin to report both of us if we receive such a notice."
By the way, will Jiang Yi follow this path in the future? Since he's also cultivating, it'll probably leave a record. You'd better be mentally prepared. If you want to keep it a secret, then try not to reveal too much.
After registering, there will be many more restrictions, and it won't be as carefree as before.
Hua Xiangyun really couldn't make this decision, she only said that she would discuss it with Jiang Yi later.
As for who to ask for help, Wu Chenxi already had a plan in mind. If the Xuanmen sorcerers could really establish a department, then this matter would be easy to solve, and it probably wouldn't take that long.
The master and apprentice thought it over again, making sure they had erased all traces and left nothing behind, before they got to their respective tasks.

When Zhou Xiaolan returned to Heping County, she had become extremely thin.
Seeing her pitiful state, the neighbors were shocked and felt great sympathy. They each brought eggs, brown sugar and other things to visit her.
Every family has children sent to the countryside, but I've never seen anyone as miserable as Zhou Xiaolan.
The others who came back were at most a little darker and thinner, but her sickly appearance was quite frightening.
People came to visit not only out of sympathy, but also because they wanted to know if Zhou Xiaolan had some incurable disease.
It's only been a short time since they went to the countryside, and they've already gotten into this state. It can't be because they were exhausted from working in the fields.
Zhou Xiaolan, supporting herself, explained to everyone, "I went to the hospital for a checkup but they couldn't find the cause of my illness. I just couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, and was vomiting and having diarrhea. The local villagers and doctors all said that I was suffering from water and soil incompatibility. I thought I would get better after the initial period, but who knew that this situation would continue. I had no choice but to submit the application to the higher authorities."
"So, once you've come back and rested, will you still be going to the countryside?" Someone asked the question that everyone was concerned about. If being unable to adapt to the new environment can lead to returning to the city, then could this family do the same? Anyway, it's better for the child to suffer a bit than to stay in the countryside.
Zhou Xiaolan smiled wryly, "They only gave me two months of sick leave. After I've rested, I'll see if I can go back to my hometown or go to the countryside again..."
After suffering so much, he thought he could stay in the city, but as soon as he returned, he ran into the clerk from the educated youth office who had come to pick him up. The clerk handed him a notice and a leave slip.
Her health has been severely deteriorating these past few days, and the things her neighbors brought over today will help replenish her body.
She didn't notice that while they were talking, Bai Ailian had already put everything away in the cabinet and locked it.
The neighbors asked some more questions of concern before gradually dispersing.
Zhou Xiaolan collapsed onto the bed, completely exhausted. She really didn't want to go back this time, so the only way was to find someone to marry and then transfer her household registration back.
But she didn't have the energy to think about any of that right now; she just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
Bai Ailian came into the room, glanced at her, and finally gritted her teeth, made her a cup of brown sugar water, and placed it on the table.
Meanwhile, Hua Zhian also arrived in Majiao Township. He had just gotten off the bus and hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Xie Lanqiao ahead, he gritted his teeth and followed behind her.
Because they hadn't sent a telegram in advance announcing their return date, no one came to pick them up, so they had to carry their large bags and slowly walk towards Kaoshantun.
It would take more than an hour to walk there. Carrying so much stuff, the two of them couldn't go fast, so they had to stop and go as they went. Finally, they arrived before nightfall.
When the Xie family saw that their daughter had brought back all the educated youth from China, they found it unbelievable.
They agreed to let Xie Lanqiao go there because they wanted to teach her a lesson and make her give up. Otherwise, how could she live her life if she kept having unrealistic fantasies?
They all guessed that the Hua family might make things difficult for Xie Lanqiao, and they were prepared for her to return home devastated.
What's going on now? Not just one person came back, but they also brought Hua Zhian back with them.
"Didn't Hua Zhian's colleague say you already had a job in the city?" The villagers who came to watch the commotion couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire.
The Xie family had previously said that Xie Lanqiao had gone to visit relatives, but now she has brought Hua Zhian back, so it turns out she went to pursue someone.
Xie Lanqiao somehow managed to bring the person back.
Hua Zhian had already prepared his speech on the way, and he spoke confidently with everyone, "Although I have returned to the city, I have been corresponding with Comrade Xie Lanqiao. I have come here specifically to propose marriage."
