2216 Sharpest Touch

Shu Jing retorted, “It’s not that I forbade them from going to the medicinal mountain but that the rules of the medicinal mountain have always been like this. They don’t have a bloodline totem, and they can’t take out medicinal pills of the corresponding level in exchange. Naturally, this is the only way.”

“The so-called rules of the medicinal mountain were originally set by you.” Displeasure flashed across Jin Yunlai’s eyes.

Shu Jing pursed her lips, and her voice softened. “Nothing can be done without rules. I’m doing this for the good of Fantasy Divine Palace.”

Jin Yunlai retracted his gaze and stopped looking at her.

They had known each other for so many years, and he knew very well what Shu Jing was up to.

The medicinal mountain stretched for thousands of miles and grew endless natural treasures. Its value was immeasurable.

Shu Jing just wanted to take a share of the loot.

The authority to control the medicinal mountain had been given to her. As long as she didn’t do anything overboard, the higher-ups wouldn’t interfere.

The rules she specified were strict in their hierarchy and embodied the principle of ‘winner takes all, loser is at one’s mercy’ in a vivid and powerful way. Although Jin Yunlai didn’t like it, he had to admit that by doing this, it had indeed served to restrain and supervise everyone to a certain extent.

Want the best medicinal herbs? Then, they had to exchange with the corresponding strength and capital.

Not qualified? Then, one had to increase their strength and make themselves qualified!

As for those that really found it impossible… That kind of person shouldn’t exist in Fantasy Divine Palace at all.

No one cared about the life and death of the weak.

Although Jin Yunlai’s ranking among the deities was better than Shu Jing, because the various deities were in charge of different things, it wasn’t good for them to interfere with each other even if they couldn’t stand it.

Jin Yunlai had no intention of continuing to argue with Shu Jing over this issue and only reminded her. “I know you’re dissatisfied with this, but don’t forget Zhen Bao Pavilion. You can’t afford to offend them.”

Shu Jing’s expression tightened.

“As for Shangguan Yue… Since Zhen Bao Pavilion intends to support her now, don’t get into trouble. During the next period of time, try not to find trouble with them, lest you cause trouble for yourself in the end and can’t get rid of it. Understand?”

Jin Yunlai’s voice became much more serious as he stared intently at Shu Jing. “Don’t forget. It’s not up to us to say no to whatever decision they make.”

Just those words alone would cause quite a bit of trouble for Zhen Bao Pavilion!

The powerful and scrutinizing gaze finally made Shu Jing lower her head. “…Yes, I understand.”

Jin Yunlai only looked at Mu Yafeng after she disappeared. “Did you hear what she said just now?”

His words were filled with undisguised warning.

Mu Yafeng was shocked and hurriedly said, “Yes, I’ll definitely remember it.”

With that, she lowered her eyes, her heart in turmoil.

She already knew that Zhen Bao Pavilion had a powerful background, such that even Deity Jin didn’t dare to offend them. From the looks of it, Deity Jin was indeed unwilling to go against Zhen Bao Pavilion head-on. He was even… willing to take the initiative to avoid them!

“I… I’m just a little curious. I wonder why Zhen Bao Pavilion chose her…” Mu Yafeng said softly and looked up at Jin Yunlai.

“Shangguan Yue’s talent is indeed outstanding,” Jin Yunlai said calmly. “Although she doesn’t have a bloodline totem and can’t ascend to become a deity, Zhen Bao Pavilion values her quite a lot. It’s understandable that they want her help in replicating some Xuan formations while she’s still in Fantasy Divine Palace.”

“However, these are their matters, so you don’t have to worry too much. Since you can’t get the ‘Li Fire Xuan Map,’ you can go back and study more—it’s the same. The Star Path is far away, and countless Xuan formations have gathered. It’s not easy to completely comprehend it.”

For Mu Yafeng, it was just a matter of time.

Mu Yafeng knew Jin Yunlai very well and knew that he had already reached his limit. There was no need to continue asking, so she tactfully agreed and turned to leave.

Jin Yunlai himself turned around and returned to the Fantasy Divine Hall. As he walked, he frowned slightly.

In fact, his words of persuasion to Shu Jing and Mu Yafeng just now didn’t convince him. He also felt very strange about the decision of Zhen Bao Pavilion.

However… he probably wouldn’t have the chance to ask for the answer. Chu Liuyue had to leave Fantasy Divine Palace eventually.

…

Chu Liuyue spent four hours reading the first and second volumes of ‘Li Fire Xuan Map’ carefully. To be precise, she was done with her ‘revision.’

She put down the two volumes and rubbed her eyebrows. I can now confirm that Big Baby and the other two have been to Fantasy Divine Palace before. Or perhaps, they were originally from Fantasy Divine Palace. In short, I haven’t seen them yet and am not sure. However, I’m not so anxious to verify this now.

Ever since she realized that Big Baby had lied to her that those Grandmaster-level Xuan formations were just ordinary Xuan formations, she had been numb to all of this.

After a long time, she finally said weakly, “The human heart is really old!”

After resting for a while, she put away these chaotic thoughts and began to replicate the Xuan formations in the first volume.

The ones in the first volume were relatively simpler, and they were easier to copy.

Chu Liuyue finished copying the first ten Xuan formations, regulated her breathing, and cultivated in her room. Then, she stayed for a while longer before getting up to leave.

The moment she went out, Ming Shu came out of the room next door. “Miss Shangguan, are you done copying?”

Chu Liuyue wasn’t surprised that he knew her actions. After all, this was their territory.

She nodded and handed over the brand-new booklet. “The ten Xuan formations are all here. Please review them, Master Ming.”

Ming Shu took it with a smile. “I naturally trust Miss Shangguan’s ability.”

Initially, he wanted to say that there was no need to look, but he felt that this would seem too much. In the end, he still looked at it carefully.

About 15 minutes later, he closed the book and praised sincerely, “Miss Shangguan is really amazing! In such a short time, you actually copied all ten Xuan formations perfectly.”

Chu Liuyue’s lips curled up slightly. “It’s good that Master Ming is satisfied. Then, I’ll take my leave first.”

Although she could continue, there was no hurry. She could take her time.

Besides, after coming here many times, she would eventually see that Second Boss. And even… that Master!

“I’ll send you off!” Ming Shu hurriedly said.

Chu Liuyue rejected him with a smile and left alone in the end.

After she left, Ming Shu stood rooted to the ground for a long time before turning into another room. “Second Boss, she’s gone.”

Yan Ge patted his chest. “I know.”

Ming Shu looked at the booklet in his hand in surprise and sighed. “This Miss Shangguan… is really impressive!”

Yan Ge clicked his tongue. “That’s the person our Master cherishes. Naturally, she’s different!”
