Chapter 86: There’s No Reason for This

Additionally, Qiyun Peak is known for its expertise in pill crafting, which is where Elder Tai and the current Elder Yan are located. Qiyun Peak is also quite popular within the sect.

Not everyone is a diligent cultivator, and the effects of pills are greater than Ji Yang imagined. One could take a pill when cultivating, another when breaking through, yet another after waking up, and even one before sleeping.

As long as one raises their level, they can extend their lifespan, and then naturally have time to refine themselves. Moreover, there are pills for beauty, longevity, and various other effects.

So, upon hearing that the person before him came from Qiyun Peak, Ji Yang looked surprised.

But seeing the expression on Ye Wuchen’s face, it seemed he was not very familiar with Elder Yan either.

This left Ji Yang even more confused, so he did not rush to Tianxing Lake and decided to listen to the gossip before he left.

Curiosity is human nature, and Ji Yang was no exception.

"Elder Yan, what brings you here?"

Facing Elder Yan’s friendly smile, Ye Wuchen calmly inquired, his expression stable and without much change.

As the peak master, Ye Wuchen was far above him in both strength and status within the sect.

Elder Yan clasped his hands again and then spoke:

"To be honest, I came here for Peak Master Ye’s esteemed disciple."

Ji Yang, who had been eavesdropping, suddenly froze. Looking for me?

He couldn’t remember ever meeting Elder Yan.

Ye Wuchen also frowned slightly, and seeing this, Elder Yan hurriedly explained:

"Please don’t misunderstand, Peak Master Ye. I came for the seeds of the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower!"

"I accidentally obtained that seed before, but since I could not find a method to cultivate it, I had no choice but to submit it to the Unity with the Dao secret realm."

"However, a few days ago, while reviewing a secret scroll, I found a few fragmented notes that have now given me a fifty percent chance of successfully cultivating it!"

As he spoke, Elder Yan showed a look of confidence and continued:

"But Peak Master Ye’s esteemed disciple took that seed before I could. Hence, I came to visit, hoping that Ji Yang would exchange that seed with me!"

"Of course, I will ensure that Ji Yang will not suffer a loss. If there are any requests, Ji Yang can just mention them!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Wuchen’s expression revealed understanding, and then he turned his gaze to Ji Yang:

"You decide this matter for yourself!"

After listening to Elder Yan’s words, Ji Yang suddenly realized, so that’s how it is; he came for the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower.

Elder Yan looked at Ji Yang with a smile, believing that as long as Peak Master Ye agreed, the matter was almost settled.

Although he did not know why Ji Yang had taken that seed, he didn’t think Ji Yang could cultivate it.

Elder Yan had sought out many elders for guidance on that Seven-Leaf Soul Flower seed, including those from Qiyun Peak and others, and after confirmation from several elders, he finally found a way to cultivate it. Now, he certainly would not give up.

Furthermore, as an elder from Qiyun Peak, he had significant resources and was not worried about not getting it back.

Looking at the confident Elder Yan, Ji Yang showed a troubled expression:

"I’m afraid I cannot agree to this matter, Elder."

"Ah, Ji Yang, what is it for? You can tell me anything you want, esteemed disciple. Although my level is not high, I still have some resources, and that seed you left behind probably isn’t of much use anyway."

"To be honest, Elder Yan, that flower is currently planted in my spiritual field. You can go take a look yourself."

Upon hearing this, Elder Yan paused for a moment.

He quickly pushed aside his hesitation and asked Ji Yang to lead the way, though there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

The cultivation method for the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower seed is difficult. How could it easily grow? However, he heard that Jingtan Peak also has a spiritual pond; could it be a coincidence that it was planted there and the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower just happened to grow?

Thinking about the clear pond below, Elder Yan was about to suggest flying over when he heard Ji Yang’s voice beside him:

"Elder Yan, we’re here!"

"We’re here? Already?"

Elder Yan snapped back to reality and looked at the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower growing in the spiritual field beside the wooden house, his face showing some confusion.

After a moment of bewilderment, Elder Yan rubbed his eyes, revealing a hint of skepticism.

Did he see correctly?

Why is the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower growing in the ground?

There were even some lesser spiritual plants nearby!

And they seem to be growing well, having even opened a leaf!

Elder Yan could hardly believe his eyes as he leaned down to closely examine the spiritual plants in the field.

After carefully inspecting, he confirmed that this was indeed the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower! He recognized both the roots and the leaves!

Above the roots, there were even signs of being broken!

But he had verified through multiple sources that this type of spiritual plant must grow in water!

What on earth is going on here?

Can it bloom when planted in the ground? But from what he understood, that would be much harder than what this spiritual grain could achieve!

"Elder Yan?"

Seeing Elder Yan frozen in place, Ji Yang felt puzzled. It was just growing a spiritual plant; what’s so strange about that?

"Oh, oh."

Hearing Ji Yang call out, Elder Yan came back to his senses but still looked confused.

After confirming that the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower seed had indeed sprouted, Elder Yan distractedly bid farewell and took to the air.

However, along the way, he couldn’t stop muttering to himself:

"This makes no sense!"

"It shouldn’t be like this!"

"This is unreasonable!"

…

The master and disciple pair did not pay any mind to Elder Yan, who left in a daze.

To Ji Yang, the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower was just a spiritual plant that could contribute Blue Light Points, while for Ye Wuchen, external things are all under his sword energy!

"Alright, you can go over now!"

Looking at the spiritual field with the spiritual plants beside the wooden house, Ye Wuchen spoke again.

Ji Yang showed hesitation but eventually nervously said,

"Master, can you help take care of these spiritual plants?"

Ye Wuchen said no more, gently pushing his palm. In the next moment, Ji Yang found himself outside Jingtan Peak!

At the same time, he heard Ye Wuchen’s voice,

"Hurry!"

Watching Ji Yang disappear before him, Ye Wuchen slowly walked back into the wooden house.

Little Black, seeing Ji Yang vanish, showed a delighted expression.

He succeeded! He finally escaped Ji Yang’s grasp!

But upon seeing Ye Wuchen turning to enter the wooden house, the joy on his face quickly disappeared. With his intelligence, he could tell who posed a greater danger.

At this moment, Little Black looked at the three acres of spiritual grain in front of him, then glanced at the spiritual field with the spiritual plants beside him, hesitating slightly.

Finally, his hesitation dissipated, and Little Black decisively walked toward the spiritual field, continuing to catch bugs.

Without Ji Yang around, these few acres of spiritual grains were his; he could eat as much as he wanted!

Leave? Only a foolish dog would leave!
