"What a blessing! In all these years, I have never seen that cold ice block get close to anyone. The charm of our young master Lin is truly admirable."
Xia Shiying said sarcastically from behind.
Feng Yushang coughed lightly twice, looking at Shangguan Qingning's back with some wariness.
How dare you!
She actually dared to try and steal the position of the Crown Prince's first maidservant! She has a death wish!
"Really? I didn't even notice, but you did. Does that mean Princess Chang is paying attention to me all the time? That makes me feel embarrassed."
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, not annoyed, and readily launched a counterattack.
"Shameless! Who's been paying attention to you all this time?"
Xia Shiying couldn't help but roll her eyes and quickly explained.
Xuan Yanhuang sat beside him, smiling without saying a word.
He was in a great mood after the great victory over the Eastern Clan. Mo Yuandao, Xia Shufan, and Xia Jingsong looked at each other, wondering whether they should take the initiative to make some requests to Emperor Xuanyan that he would not normally grant after returning to the palace.
It's just asking for a favor; it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Since you three have achieved the top three in this martial arts competition, according to the rules, I will grant you any request. If you have made up your mind, just come and tell me."
"There is indeed something I need Your Majesty's help with."
Feng Yushang didn't stand on ceremony. It was a reward she deserved, so why shouldn't she accept it?
"Please speak, Miss Wind."
Although Feng Yushang is just a maidservant by Lin Feng's side, Emperor Xuan Yan dares not underestimate her in the slightest. The cultivation level that this young lady has shown is enough to guard a region in the Xuan Yan Star Realm and become the master of a power.
Moreover, Lin Feng seemed to value her highly, often teasing her whenever he had free time, so Xuan Yan Huang dared not neglect her.
"Help me find a type of spiritual herb called 'Lamp Ember Grass'. This herb grows in an endless sea of fire. From my observations over this period of time, the environment of the Xuan Yan Star Realm is extremely suitable for the growth of Lamp Ember Grass. It shouldn't be difficult to find it."
"no problem."
Emperor Xuan Yan waved his hand and agreed immediately. He then instructed Mo Yuandao to issue a decree that all ministers who found the Lamp Ash Grass would be richly rewarded!
Lin Feng crossed his arms and asked in confusion, "What do you need such a pure yang item for?"
Feng Yushang pouted and explained, "The ancient charm technique I cultivate has seven levels. The fourth level is a bottleneck. Only by breaking through the fourth level can one be considered to have formally entered the field. Now I have reached the threshold of the fourth level of the technique, but I still need to prepare some spiritual herbs and pills that can improve the success rate. Right now, I only need this one kind of lamp ash grass."
Lin Feng rummaged through his storage ring and was immediately surprised.
"I don't have any here either."
Feng Yushang glanced around and secretly sent a telepathic message to Lin Feng.
"Your Highness, the growth conditions of the Lamp Ember Grass are harsh, and its quantity is scarce. The Northern Divine Region is the least suitable place for the growth of the Lamp Ember Grass. Otherwise, how could I have searched for more than half a year without finding it?"
He frowned. It wasn't in his storage ring, but surely it was in the system shop?
I checked and it is indeed available, but it's not cheap; a single Lamplight Grass costs 1000 Fate Points.
"How many Lamp Ash Grasses would be needed to guarantee a successful cultivation to the fourth level of the technique?"
"It should be at least... seven plants?"
Feng Yushang gave a number.
Seven trees, 7000 Destiny Points? That's not much for Lin Feng right now.
He looked at a martial arts manual in the store.
Excerpt from Ancient Books: Cultivation Techniques of the Ancient Enchantress Clan
The Meizu are the clan that created the art of charm. They disappeared in ancient times. This technique is the only one related to charm in the system shop. It can be obtained for only 3,000 Destiny Points.
Lin Feng handed Feng Yushang a copy of the cultivation summary.
"This is……"
"I obtained this by chance during my travels; you should find it useful."
Feng Yushang flipped through a few pages and couldn't help but widen her eyes.
It's not just useful! It could give her a qualitative leap in her current strength!
"Thank you, young master!"
Overjoyed, she suddenly threw herself into Lin Feng's arms, but he pushed her away with a look of disgust and said, "Let's see if Xuan Yan Huang can find the Lamp Ash Grass for you. If he can't find it in the end, I also have a way to help you."
Why do things yourself when others can contribute money and effort?
The reason I spent 3,000 points to buy this summary for Feng Yushang is because she is now my confidante, and her increased strength will also benefit me.
As for why we're not replacing those few stalks of lamplight grass for now... we should save money where we can.
Lin Feng glanced at Xiao Hong.
These next few days, focus on building up your favor with this big fat sheep; you'll earn back the Destiny Points you spent in no time.
He's a real financial genius!
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction, finding Shen Xiaohong increasingly pleasing to the eye. If the other party weren't from the King Realm, he probably would have used some means to lure him back to the Northern Divine Region.
Unfortunately, it is impossible for the people of the Royal Realm and the Northern Divine Region to coexist peacefully.
...
The Eastern Clan.
"Useless! You're all a bunch of useless trash!"
After Dongfang Qing returned to his clan, he was in a state of rage. The elders and clansmen knelt on the ground, trembling, and dared not utter a word.
The bodies of several waiters lay on the ground nearby; they were the ones who had foolishly tried to comfort Dongfang Qing earlier.
They don't want to end up like that.
The number one genius of the Dongfang clan is dead, and Dongfang Qing's only son is also dead. This Hundred Sects Martial Arts Tournament can be described as a heavy loss!
After venting his anger, Dongfang Qing sat down in a chair to think of a solution.
We absolutely cannot allow Xuan Yanhuang to continue his investigation. If the investigation leads back to him, the entire Dongfang family will be wiped out! Not a single one of them will escape!
"Master of the family."
At this moment, a fearless elder offered a suggestion, cautiously saying, "Why don't we ask Tianyusheng to help us with this?"
"Um?"
Dongfang Qing narrowed his eyes and sneered, "What's the use of finding him! When he gave us the pills before, didn't he already make it clear that there might be problems with the pills? Whether we use them or not is up to us. We are the ones who will use the pills, so even if we want to find him, there's no reason for us to do so."
“Patriarch, you can’t say that. We are now in the same boat as the Tian Shu Sect. Emperor Xuan Yan has forbidden us from leaving the clan’s territory. If we want to find a scapegoat to prove that Dongfang Changming and the other two have nothing to do with our Dongfang clan, then we can only seek the help of Tian Yusheng and let him find that person. That’s the safest option.”
After thinking it over carefully, Dongfang Qing released his divine sense and found that there were no spies planted by Xuan Yan Huang around.
"Has it been too late to arrange manpower?"
Dongfang Qing realized that this was an opportunity!
He quickly wrote a letter and sent it to Tian Shu Men.
Upon receiving the envelope, Tian Yusheng immediately frowned.
"This old bastard wants me to clean up his mess?"
"Demon Soul, do you have any good ideas? It might not work if we just find a scapegoat. Emperor Xuan Yan has plenty of ways to get people to tell the truth. If we fail to clear things up in the end and end up dragging my Tian Shu Sect into it, that would be bad."
"Hehehe... Of course there is a way, it just depends on whether you are willing to do it."
Tian Yusheng burned the letter to ashes and said calmly, "Tell me about it."
