Just one step apart, yet the world changed abruptly.
Ye Lingling still stood there in a daze. Everywhere she looked was filled with exotic flowers and rare herbs, spiritual mist curling around them. She could not name many of the herbs, nor could she remember their names. The only thing she could be certain of was that they were all immortal-grade herbs.
Otherwise, the Nine-Heart Begonia within her would not have been so excited.
"Hehe."
Chen An smiled but did not answer Ye Lingling's question. Instead, he called out.
"Hurry up and follow me."
"Th... this is Linglong Grass? One, two, three... nine. Nine-Aperture Linglong Grass?"
Ye Lingling came to her senses and followed Chen An onward. But every few steps, she had to stop and take a look, muttering under her breath.
"Seven-Star Flower, seven petals in bloom... Hiss, perfect quality..."
There were countless varieties planted here, so it was only natural that Ye Lingling recognized a few of them. There was nothing strange about that.
She did not stop for long each time, but she stopped far too often. Before she realized it, they had spent quite a while just walking this stretch of road.
"You can look again another day. If you look at every single one, three days still would not be enough."
Chen An rubbed his forehead helplessly. He had not expected bringing his disciple in here to turn out like taking her shopping.
Hearing that, Ye Lingling sobered up considerably. She was astonished by the sheer size of this place and felt a little embarrassed. She really had lost her composure.
"Oh."
She shrank her shoulders and gave a soft reply like a kitten that had done something wrong. Then she gathered herself and continued following Chen An. The journey became much more agonizing,
