The Luckless Ma Liang
In the Vast Heaven Sect, people often say... We must never let Senior Brother Xinghe down.
We must assist Senior Brother Xinghe not let him down.
But today, Mu Bai never dreamed that Muyue Kingdom would become the first to disappoint Senior Brother Xinghe.
But Mu Bai asked himself honestly... Senior Brother Xinghe was right.
Mu Bai knew that their Muyue Kingdom was actually not outstanding at all...
We are all thanks to Senior Brother Xinghe's guidance. If our Muyue Kingdom hadn't met Senior Brother Xinghe, we might still be a bunch of useless people who can only be ridiculed by others.
Since joining the Vast Heaven Sect, our Muyue Kingdom has made rapid progress under the guidance of Senior Brother Xinghe.
But Mu Bai never considered himself outstanding; he knew that everything he possessed was because of his Senior Brother Xinghe Mu Bai...
Senior Brother Xinghe is right. Every time the Muyue Kingdom creates a miracle, it is by turning the impossible into the possible.
In the past, when the Muyue Kingdom encountered difficulties, their first thought was how to solve them... But today, in the Divine Wood Clan, looking at the land with its spiritual roots severed, everyone's first thought was to give up!
We're actually thinking of rushing back to our sect to continue cultivating our own spirit fields?
Senior Brother Xinghe is absolutely right... When did our Muyue Kingdom become so profit-driven?
Where has our drive and determination to face difficulties gone?
"Mu Bai... the sect's spiritual fields are certainly important, but if your Muyue Kingdom forgets its former vitality because of a pittance of profit, then the sect's spiritual fields are better left uncultivated!"
Chu Xinghe looked heartbroken.
Mu Bai looked guilty.
"Senior Brother Xinghe... Muyue Kingdom has disappointed you... Senior Brother Xinghe is right, our Muyue Kingdom has lost its way these days... How can we abandon ourselves for such a paltry gain as earning two or three treasure troves' worth of resources from the spiritual herbs we produce each day..."
Chu Xinghe: "?"
"Our Muyue Kingdom has forgotten its original purpose... What else do we have left besides filling the treasuries of our sects?"
Chu Xinghe: "??"
"Senior Brother Xinghe is right. No matter how hard we try, we can only monopolize two-thirds of the spiritual medicine resources of the Blazing Sun Continent... But what about the remaining third? What about the Demon Star Continent? Our Muyue Kingdom can't even monopolize all the spiritual medicines in those two continents. What's the difference between us and trash?"
Chu Xinghe: "???"
At this moment, Mu Bai understood; Senior Brother Xinghe really did have a deeper meaning...
Senior Brother Xinghe brought us to the Divine Wood Clan this time, partly to help Divine Wood Clan, but more importantly, he wanted to use this opportunity to put pressure on our entire Muyue Kingdom!
Senior Brother Xinghe meant to tell us that the capabilities of the Muyue Kingdom are not limited to this, and we must not be arrogant just because we monopolize two-thirds of the spiritual herb resources of the Blazing Sun Continent.
We still have a long way to go... We must constantly improve ourselves. We not only need to conquer the entire spiritual medicine market of the Blazing Sun Continent, but also the Demon Star Continent.
We must let the brilliance of the Crystal of Xinghe shine on every inch of this world, instead of just caring about our own sect's small plot of land!
We really disappointed Senior Brother Xinghe!
A group of disciples from the Muyue Kingdom knelt on the ground and swore an oath to Senior Brother Xinghe: Muyue Kingdom would never forget Senior Brother Xinghe's reprimand today. Muyue Kingdom would rise to the challenge, and everything impossible would become possible in the eyes of the Muyue Kingdom!
What happens when the earth's spiritual roots are severed?
They used to say that the spiritual roots of our Muyue Kingdom had been severed...
If our Muyue Kingdom can survive a desperate situation, why can't the Divine Wood Clan's spiritual fields survive a desperate situation?
The sacred fields of the Divine Wood Clan today are just a small step for our Muyue Kingdom!
The Demon Star Continent is enormous... even larger than our Blazing Sun Continent, yet it has no spiritual Demon Star Continent at all due to its barren land.
If our Muyue Kingdom can overcome this, then the problem of barren land in the Demon Star Continent will no longer be a problem... From now on, wherever our Muyue Kingdom goes, there will be no more barren land, and the entire Demon Star Continent will become our Muyue Kingdom's spiritual fields and medicinal gardens!
All the medicinal herbs produced in the world will originate from our Muyue Kingdom!
I, Mu Bai, keep calling Mu Xiaoqi trash... Maybe in Senior Brother Xinghe's eyes, I'm just as trash as Mu Xiaoqi!
Mu Xiaoqi would lie down and relax whenever he saw the sect's spiritual fields, but all I, Mu Bai, cared about were those spiritual fields. I never even considered taking over the entire Demon Star Continent... How am I any different from Mu Xiaoqi!
Although he didn't know what Mu Bai was thinking... looking at the group of spirited Muyue Kingdom, Chu Xinghe couldn't help but feel a little teary-eyed...
Yes, yes, that's the spirit! If we don't take the spirit fields of the Divine Wood Clan this time, the Muyue Kingdom will never be able to return to the sect even a little bit!
But as long as we don't return to the Muyue Kingdom... how many spiritual herbs will our sect lose every single day?
This Muyue Kingdom will be welded to the Divine Wood Clan here!
What? You're saying what if the Muyue Kingdom actually succeeds?
Chu Xinghe retorted, "What the hell are you talking about?"
You're telling me the spiritual roots in the spirit field are all ruined? How can it possibly succeed?
No matter how powerful you are, luck and misfortune, can you really change the nature of the land for me?
I, Chu Xinghe, am putting this out there! Luck and misfortune, even if they come together, will never change the nature of this land!
As it turned out, Chu Xinghe's deduction was absolutely correct.
For the next few days, the Muyue Kingdom were like they were on steroids.
So the land's spiritual root is destroyed... No problem... We can still grow things even without a spiritual root!
A large number of medicinal herbs were transported from the Vast Heaven Sect to the Divine Wood Clan, and Mu Bai and his group planted them in the ground one after another!
But as it turns out, this land without spiritual roots is just like a person without spiritual roots; it's impossible for it to make any progress.
In a short period of time, all the spiritual herbs planted in the Muyue Kingdom withered due to the lack of spiritual roots.
Looking at the worried faces of the Muyue Kingdom disciples, Chu Xinghe's mind automatically started playing "Good Luck is Coming!"
Not to mention Chu Xinghe, even the Divine Wood Clan was completely baffled by the Muyue Kingdom's rapid planting.
Meanwhile, the Divine Wood Clan was also marveling at how incredibly powerful the Vast Heaven Sect's resources were!
You should know that the medicinal herbs planted in the Muyue Kingdom are all top-quality... These medicinal herbs themselves are extremely valuable.
After these medicinal seeds were planted, they withered almost immediately within half a day. In this short period of time, the Muyue Kingdom had planted them countless times...
The price of the medicine alone is astronomical!
When Mu Ran went to ask the Vast Heaven Sect for help, and Chu Xinghe immediately agreed, not only the other clans, but even Mu Ran himself wondered if Chu Xinghe had some kind of conspiracy.
But after watching these past few days, Mu Ran was moved to tears by Meng Meng's teary eyes!
What the hell? You're saying Chu Xinghe is plotting something?
Open your eyes and look... How many resources does the Prophet Xinghe consume every day just for the medicinal seeds, all to help us?
But despite all these resources being consumed, the Prophet Xinghe didn't even flinch...
What? You're saying the Prophet Xinghe might use these resources to blackmail us?
I urge you to be kind!
After discovering the massive depletion of medicinal resources, Mu Ran immediately sought out the Prophet Xinghe, saying, "Mu Ran Prophet Xinghe... our Divine Wood Clan may not be able to provide you with the resources to return these medicinal resources..."
Guess what the Prophet Xinghe when he heard himself say that!
The Prophet Xinghe flew into a rage on the spot, pointing to his own nose and saying to Chief Mu Ran, "What kind of person do you take me, Chu Xinghe, for?"
I, Chu Xinghe, swear to the heavens that I, Chu Xinghe, will not stand for anyone who uses medicinal resources to threaten the Divine Wood Clan!
Upon Prophet Xinghe's words, Mu Ran's eyes welled up with tears... Prophet Xinghe is truly risking everything for our Divine Wood Clan this time... What bad intentions could he possibly have?
However, considering the resource consumption, Mu Ran still spoke up, "Prophet Xinghe... how about replacing those medicines with lower-grade ones? It's all just an experiment anyway, there's no need to use such excellent medicines; they consume too many resources!"
Upon hearing Mu Ran's words, Chu Xinghe's eyes lit up!
Chief Mu Ran, you're right!
How could I forget about the medicinal herbs... Chief Mu Ran is right, how can we use the current medicinal herbs... It's such a waste of resources!
So that day, Chu Xinghe found Mu Bai and said, "Mu Bai... have you ever considered that the main reason you haven't succeeded might be because the medicine isn't good enough?"
Although the medicine we're using is of the highest quality, isn't it still far from being divine?
If we switch to a divine-grade medicine, wouldn't the probability of success be much higher?
Upon hearing what Senior Brother Xinghe said, Mu Bai suddenly understood!
Senior Brother Xinghe is right; the stronger the medicinal herb, the better its effect... Why didn't we consider this before?
So that day... Mu Bai directly notified the sect to replace all the top-grade medicinal seeds with divine-grade medicinal seeds!
After waiting for two whole days... Ma Liang arrived with the divine medicinal seeds.
Mu Bai was so angry at Ma Liang's slow pace that he almost complained to his Senior Brother Xinghe.
Ma Liang... even if you are the Future Grand Elder, aren't you being a little too presumptuous in front of Senior Brother Xinghe?
Senior Brother Xinghe said he would switch to a divine-grade medicinal seed, and that news had already reached the sect two days ago. And you're only just now sending the seed?
Are you crazy?
But soon, after learning why Ma Liang was two days late, Mu Bai fell silent.
Because Ma Liang's arrival was facilitated by a teleportation array personally set up by the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder is truly the number one master of teleportation arrays in the world. Even now that the two continents have merged, and even if we include the Formation Spirit Clan, the Grand Elder's teleportation arrays are still unparalleled.
With the medicinal seeds in hand, Ma Liang landed directly beside the Nether Lake in Ghost Valley using the Elder's teleportation array...
And the location of this landing point is truly unique... it's exactly where the Wolf King Minghan was trapped back then...
As expected of the Grand Elder's teleportation array... Even Senior Brother Xinghe got lost once when entering Ghost Valley, but the Grand Elder's teleportation array was able to teleport Ma Liang to that exact location.
This is only possible because Ma Liang had the Ten Thousand Ghosts Grand Formation... Anyone else would have been dead by now...
Ma Liang, with tears streaming down his face, said that if it had been the Grand Elder who went to rescue Ming Han, they wouldn't even need a map... they could have just activated the teleportation array and accurately located the Wolf King!
After hearing Ma Liang's story, Chu Xinghe remained silent for a minute before saying... "When it comes to Star Divination Art, the Grand Elder is the one to speak of..."
The Wolf Clan, you were looking for the Grand Elder... If you had just used the Grand Elder's teleportation array, you would have found the Wolf King's remains long ago...
What the heck? You're saying Wolf Clan might turn into skeletons?
Never mind that, just tell me whether you found the location of the Wolf King's remains or not...
