Chapter 1061: A Gift to You!
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Ye Xiao thought that at least Misty Cloud Palace was still able to keep running.
One thousand seemed to be a lot, but he believed it wouldn’t be too stunning.
However, he didn’t know the real situation of Misty Cloud Palace. They had been in a desperate situation. Not to mention one thousand, even one hundred was an incredible amount for Misty Cloud Palace these days!
Most importantly, it was Regeneration Jade Lotus, not Regeneration Ink Lotus!
“One thousand…” Xuan Bing even felt dazed when she heard the number.
[One thousand? How come? How is it possible?]
[Is he making a mistake? Is he mistaking normal white lotuses for Regeneration Jade Lotus?]
[This is the only explanation for such an unbelievable number!]
Deep in her heart, however, she would really love to believe Ye Xiao did have a thousand plants of Regeneration Jade Lotus. Even if it were a dream of her, she would like to wake up later. However, the rationality of her mind kept telling her that she had to make sure of it since it concerned the future of Misty Cloud Palace!
“I don’t believe it!” Xuan Bing humphed.
“I know you wouldn’t believe it. That’s why I have prepared a small gift for you, Miss Xuan.” Ye Xiao said, “You have been traveling with us and supported us a lot. I believe it is destiny that brought us here. These lotuses represent my humble gratitude. Please accept it…”
He reached out his right hand and turned the palm up. A dark old-time space ring was in his hand.
Xuan Bing didn’t hesitate. She reached out one hand, grabbed the ring, and hurriedly opened it…
“Ah!”
She couldn’t help making an exclamation.
As such a powerful and steady cultivator, she actually exclaimed. It proved how shocking it was to her. It indeed stunned her.
When she opened the ring, she knew what was inside the ring space!
A lot of… Regeneration Jade Lotus!
She didn’t believe it, so she kept looking into it again and again until she finally confirmed that there were one thousand plants of Regeneration Jade Lotus!
It was true!
The light scent, the color and luster of white jade, and the glowing introverted lights in the texture of the petal!
What else could it be other than Regeneration Jade Lotus?
There weren’t just one or two plants, ten or eight plants, or a hundred or eighty plants! There were one thousand!
The number shocked Xuan Bing!
After she held the ring in hand and confirmed the number, she was stunned.
“It is… It is real…” She took a deep breath and couldn’t believe what her spiritual mind had sensed. She unconsciously wanted to take off the mask and take a close look with her eyes.
Influential people like her had gotten used to observe things with their spiritual minds. However, at this moment, she wanted to check on it with her own eyes!
Ye Xiao was staring at her hand.
The next moment, Xuan Bing’s hand, which had been holding the ring and becoming pale because it grabbed the ring so hard, was loosening up.
“It turns out to be the real Regeneration Jade Lotus. A lot of it.” Xuan Bing sounded calm and peaceful again, “Young Brother Ye, I, Xuan Bing, appreciate what you did for all my sisters in Misty Cloud Palace.”
As she said so, the relation between them had changed. She had called Ye Xiao Little Brother Ye. It was more like teasing him, but in a genial way. In addition, it showed her arrogance from the upper position to the lower. When she called him Young Brother Ye, although it was just a difference of one word, she talked to him as the great Prime Elder of Misty Cloud Palace. That showed her respect for Ye Xiao. She was talking to him in an equal position, instead of looking down upon him.
However, it covered the intimacy between them. It was hard to tell whether they were more intimate or alienated from each other.
In fact, it was a surprising outcome but a reasonable result. When Ye Xiao didn’t know who Xuan Bing was, Xuan Bing knew precisely who Ye Xiao was. It seemed they were in different positions, but Xuan Bing had been getting close to Ye Xiao in a secret way. She didn’t dare to let him know after all. Now, Ye Xiao gave her a thousand plants of Regeneration Jade Lotus, which meant a great favor for Misty Cloud Palace that seemed to be still tough and mighty but was actually falling to weakness. Xuan Bing was the Prime Elder of Misty Cloud Palace. She couldn’t get along with Ye Xiao in a private way. She had to respect Ye Xiao as the Prime Elder who represented Misty Cloud Palace!
It was only Xuan Bing’s concern, and even Ye Xiao didn’t truly understand!
Things were always hard to predict!
“Miss Xuan, you are being too polite.” Ye Xiao rubbed his nose and talked politely. However, he felt regret in his heart.
He still didn’t see the face of Elder Xuan.
“You are sincerely giving these to me, and these things mean quite a lot to Misty Cloud Palace. I guess I should just indecorously accept them.” Xuan Bing blandly smiled and gracefully said, “However, I don’t think we can just take such largess as granted.”
Ye Xiao sincerely said, “Miss Xuan, you have traveled along with us. Your mighty name has been easing our nerves. My brother and I will never forget your support. You deserve everything I am giving you.”
Xuan Bing blandly smiled and didn’t answer. She couldn’t help feeling a sense of indescribable melancholy.
Regeneration Jade Lotus was never the reason why she traveled with them!
Now that she got so many plants of Regeneration Jade Lotus, she lost a good reason to stay at the same time. She had to leave.
In Misty Cloud Palace, her sisters were waiting for the life-saving lotuses. No matter what, she couldn’t be a selfish person.
When would they meet again after she left?
[Master, am I really leaving? I… I don’t have any reason to stay with you anymore…]
The conversation between them was ended. The talky Han Bingxue naturally kept asking Ye Xiao about the mysterious Mountain of All Medicines. However, even Ye Xiao didn’t really understand what had happened. How could he clearly say it out?
According to what he knew, it seemed the Mountain of All Medicines was refined and commandeered by him. It belonged to him now.
However, the mountain was still standing there, reaching up to the sky, surrounded by clouds and mist. It was still there!
It was apparently not a delusion. It was real.
What was going on?
Ye Xiao was confused.
He had to believe that such an unbelievable, incredible, and incomprehensible event was the outcome of those super mighty figures’ marvelous skills!
Besides, it was not a good time to keep thinking about this problem…
The three of them got back on the road again, and none of them talked.
When they had walked out over a hundred miles, they smelled blood in the air. The three of them all felt it. When they tried to find something, they saw some flesh and bones in pieces hidden in the bushes.
Apparently, a deadly battle had happened in this place.
It was so drastic that even after such a long time, the blood stains were still fresh.
