Chapter 1441 Picking Medicinal Herbs at the Thousand Medicines Mountain
Her eyes flickered as she remembered Master Third Sun’s words to her mother that night. Therefore, she looked at the two men and asked with a smile: “Speaking of which, what a coincidence this is. I bumped into Martial Uncle Shangguan earlier in this part of the forest as well!”
“What? You bumped into Junior Sister Shangguan?” The two men looked at Feng Jiu in surprise: “She really went into the depths of the forest?”
After she heard this and watched their reactions, she blinked her eyes and said: “I just saw a figure in white that looked very much like Martial Uncle Shangguan from a distance. I didn’t actually bump into her directly. However, I have met Martial Uncle Shangguan several times at the Peak, therefore, I am quite sure that the person I saw is her. But…”
“But what?” The two men asked nervously.
Feng Jiu glanced at them and replied with a worried expression: “It’s just that it looked like Martial Uncle Shangguan was injured when I saw her earlier and there was no one else beside her. I wanted to catch up to her, but I am only a Foundation Formation stage cultivator and I couldn’t keep up with her speed.”
After some inquiring, she had found out that Master Third Sun’s disciples had special thoughts towards her mother. Since that was the case, she could make use of that now.
Sure enough, after they had heard this, the two men’s eyebrows twisted and they walked to the side and whispered: “Eldest Senior Brother is right, Junior Sister must have gone to pick the few medicinal herbs that Master is lacking.”
“Could the matter that Eldest Senior Brother spoke of be true? Master really intends to…..”
“No matter what, I think we need to warn Junior Sister.”
“It’s just that if Master has decided on something, even if we have the intention to help, we can’t change the result.”
“Regardless of anything else, if Junior Sister does go to pick those three medicinal herbs, then she would have gone to Thousand Medicines Mountain in the depths of the Secret Realm. The medicinal herbs that Master wants can only be found there. However, there are so many beasts guarding Thousand Medicines Mountain, if we don’t get there in time, I’m afraid Junior Sister will….”
“Then let’s hurry over, we might get there in time to help.”
As the two men were getting ready to head into the depths of the forest, a hand stretched out and grabbed their robes.
“Martial Uncles, please wait a moment!”
Feng Jiu who had been listening to their conversation looked at them with innocent eyes blinking and said: “Martial Uncle, take me along! We are so deep in the forest, if I stay here alone, I will die.”
“If you walk in this direction and keep going straight you will reach the outer periphery. We have to go into the depths of the forest. If you come along it will be inconvenient.” One of the men said and brushed her hands off his robe: “Let go.”
Feng Jiu didn’t let go but instead she said: “But Martial Uncle, what happens if I encounter a fierce beast after you leave? I will die. Martial Uncles, we are all from Third Sun Peak, and even though I am only a disciple who runs errands, I am still a disciple! You must bring me with you!”
The two men frowned and looked at each other then flicked their gazed away: “If you follow us you will die faster.” As soon as they had finished speaking, they ignored Feng Jiu and gathered their energy to head into the forest.
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu grinned: “Thousand Medicines Mountain? Is this our destination?” She whispered and lifted herself up on tiptoes then followed the two of them.
At the same time, at the foot of Thousand Medicines Mountain, a white-robed Shangguan Wanrong had arrived and was looking up at the steep rocks of the mountain and the tens of thousands of medicinal herbs that were growing on the mountain.
It was not going to be an easy task to find the medicinal herbs that she needed on this mountain.
