Chapter 2235 - 2235 Wait and See
Ming Shu coughed and explained, “Miss Shangguan, you might not know, but this dragon-taming nut is extremely precious and is considered a top-notch product. Anyone who wants this must personally go to the medicinal mountain and obtain it with the Eighth Deity’s permission.”
Chu Liuyue found it ridiculous. “Although the dragon-taming nut is rare, it shouldn’t be to this extent, right?”
Peach Blossom Dock also has it but only in very small amounts. Fantasy Divine Palace’s medicinal mountain definitely has more, yet they had to make it so complicated?
Ming Shu was also in a difficult position. “T-this… was a rule that Eighth Deity set, and it has been the case for many years. Besides, because not everybody can take it, very few people are willing to deal with Zhen Bao Pavilion, so we naturally don’t have it.”
Chu Liuyue snorted lightly. “So the Lord Deity also likes to create monopolies.”
Even though she hadn’t seen this Eighth Deity, she had already roughly guessed what kind of character she was.
She didn’t quite take Shu Jing into consideration when Xiao Ba angrily complained previously. Now, it seemed like she had underestimated the other party’s control over the medicinal mountain.
Ming Shu hurriedly said, “Miss Shangguan, if you urgently need it, why don’t I personally make a trip to the medicinal mountain?”
Chu Liuyue smiled, but she tactfully rejected his suggestion. “Thank you for your kind intentions, Lord Ming, but it’s not convenient for you to show yourself for this. Therefore, it’s better if I do it myself.”
A relatively big portion of Zhen Bao Pavilion’s income was taken from the medicinal mountain, and they probably didn’t have a good relationship with that Eighth Deity. If Ming Shu went there himself, things would be even more troublesome.
Ming Shu was still worried.
Even though this person was rather famous in Fantasy Divine Palace lately, had broken Mu Yafeng’s record on the Star Path, and even went to the deepest part in the lightning pool, Eighth Deity didn’t buy this.
What if she went over, and Eighth Deity stupidly made her suffer a grievance?
“Why don’t I find someone to go with you?”
Chu Liuyue still shook her head and smiled. “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
Then, she turned around to leave.
“This—” Ming Shu originally wanted to follow her. After thinking, he turned and went to the second floor.
…
“What? Madam went to the medicinal mountain?” Yan Ge, who was so bored in the room and was about to grow grass, opened one eye.
Ming Shu briefly explained the entire matter and was very nervous. “Not only the dragon-taming nut, but there are other special herbs that Eighth Deity guards strictly. Peace makes fortune, right? So our Zhen Bao Pavilion didn’t think of taking those herbs. Who knew Madam would want them today?”
Yan Ge thought for a moment, closed his eyes, and lazily waved his hands. “It’s fine, it’s fine. With our Madam’s talent and abilities, it’s not a problem to want a few dragon-taming nuts.”
“Hmph, what do you mean by ‘some talent?’ Do you know how to speak?” Yan Ge grunted in contempt. “Madam isn’t twenty yet and has already become a Senior Physician. It’s only a matter of time before she breaks through to become a Supreme Physician. How can an average person be compared to her?”
Ming Shu was first shocked before the corner of his lips twitched. It’s indeed very rare to become a senior physician at this age. However, how could it be so easy to become a Supreme Physician? Besides, Madam doesn’t have a bloodline totem. Just based on the token hanging around her waist, Eighth Deity’s attitude won’t be any good.
Second Boss Is really too magnanimous…
“Second Boss, it’s not that you don’t know what kind of personality the Eighth Deity has. If Madam goes over herself now, won’t she be clearly letting herself be bullied? It’s fine if Madam can successfully take the dragon-taming nut, but what if she doesn’t and is offended by Eighth Deity…”
Yan Ge suddenly laughed. “Shu Jing’s personality is indeed very annoying. At the end of the day, that medicinal mountain isn’t hers either. She’s just in charge of guarding it, so how can she have the right to set so many rules?”
“That is true, but she’s the Eighth Deity after all. With her current status and identity, it’s very simple to do anything to Madam. It’s so hard for Madam to come to Fantasy Divine Palace. If she suffers any grievances—” Ming Shu was still very worried.
Yan Ge picked up the teacup at the side and leisurely blew it. When he heard this, it was as if he heard some joke. “Hehe, our Madam isn’t someone who will suffer! Besides, everyone pampers Madam openly and secretly, and are reluctant to let her suffer one bit. How can Shu Jing do whatever she wants?”
“If she’s sensible and knows that Madam has Zhen Bao Pavilion backing her up, she won’t make life difficult for her. If she’s not sensible… It will only prove that she’s tired of living. She has occupied the medicinal mountain for so many years, only because Master placed all his efforts on Madam and was too lazy to hold it against her. Now… let’s see what will happen if she offends Madam?”
Yan Ge sipped on his tea and squinted his eyes in satisfaction. “Tsk. Let’s just wait and see!”
…
Chu Liuyue went straight in the direction of the medicinal mountain.
She was extremely fast and quickly arrived at the place.
All sorts of herbal scents filled the air and formed a special fragrance with a slightly bitter yet leisurely aura.
After taking a deep breath in, it instantly rejuvenated one’s body and caused one to be energized.
Chu Liuyue stood in midair and looked over.
Seeing the many mountains and the different types of herbs above the mountains and below them… Even if she had heard of it before, she was still surprised.
Fantasy Divine Palace… indeed was generous!
She searched one around and quickly found a patch of dragon-taming nuts on a far away mountain peak.
A thought popped up in her mind and she went over. But at this point, a barrier suddenly appeared before her and stopped her path.
Following that, a cold and arrogant woman’s voice came over. “Who is trespassing into the medicinal mountain?”
Chu Liuyue squinted slightly and looked forward.
A young woman suddenly appeared.
The moment she saw her, Chu Liuyue instantly knew the other party’s identity—Eighth Deity, Shu Jing!
