Chen Yu acted on his decision and set off at once.
He changed into his Inner Sect Disciple robes, left his residence, and headed down Nine-Bend Peak.
On the way.
He ran into Shen Fei and a younger disciple of Nine-Bend Peak.
Nine-Bend Peak had few disciples, and Chen Yu had been there for nearly half a year, so he naturally recognized the other man.
Zhao Meng.
His cultivation was at the qi refining eighth layer.
On Nine-Bend Peak, he ranked sixth, neither high nor low.
Upon seeing Chen Yu, Shen Fei immediately strode over, cupped his hands, and casually asked, "Are you heading down the mountain on business, Senior Brother?"
"Yes."
Chen Yu nodded.
"I'm planning to visit Purple Bamboo Peak in the Outer Sect."
"Purple Bamboo Peak?" A hint of surprise crossed Shen Fei's eyes. "Do you need some spirit herbs, Senior Brother?"
"Supreme heart-calming grass," Chen Yu said.
"Oh..."
Shen Fei frowned thoughtfully for a moment, then said to Chen Yu, "You might not know this, Senior Brother, but although Inner Sect Disciples can collect one spirit herb from Purple Bamboo Peak every month, that only applies to herbs of 'ordinary' quality. Taking heart-calming grass as an example, the best we can collect is high-grade heart-calming grass. As for supreme heart-calming grass..."
He paused before continuing, "You have to purchase that with spirit essence."
"Spirit essence?"
Chen Yu frowned.
He had no spirit essence.
No, wait, he did have one: Ah Zhen.
But Ah Zhen was rather special. Unless absolutely necessary, Chen Yu had no intention of spending her.
He had given all the spirit essence he had previously obtained to Senior Sister Lü for her cultivation. As for the White Lotus Sect disciple he had refined in Black Mist Marsh last time, he had absorbed him
