Beauty and the Bodyguard

These years, the snow Valley had seen many such things. Many sick cultivators would come to ask for medicine. Naturally, they were carried here by people. This was not surprising.

But when Chu Mengyao said that he was a practitioner, elder Zhang looked at Lin Yi and walked over. He wanted to test Lin Yi's strength but Chen Yushu quickly called out,"Be careful!"

"Oh?" Elder Zhang froze, but he also felt the heat from Shu and Lin Yi's bodies. His expression froze as he saw something,"A fire element cultivator? Qi deviation?"

"We don't know if he's a fire-type cultivator, but he has indeed gone mad from his cultivation." "We're here to buy treasures for him ..."Mengyao said.

"If I'm not wrong, you're here for the ice Spirit fruit, right?" Elder Zhang saw Lin Yi's condition and guessed what they were thinking. All these years, there were a few fire element practitioners who went into Qi deviation and came here to ask for the ice Spirit fruit. Elder Zhang had experience in this area.

Of course, while the ice Spirit's fruit was precious and was on par with the Ice Palace's fire Spirit's fruit, it was truly of no use to the valley! The cultivation techniques in the snow Valley were all Yin-type and Water-type, so even if he were to go berserk, he would still have to consume the fire Spirit's fruit. If he were to eat the ice Spirit's fruit, he would probably die immediately.

Therefore, the ice Spirit's fruit was only treated as a way to make money or an item to be exchanged. However, it was naturally valuable. The ice Spirit's fruit that had been exchanged previously had brought more precious natural treasures to the snow Valley.

"Elder Zhang, you're right. We want the ice Spirit fruit." The Miss never thought that she'd have to suck up to someone one day, but it was so natural, as if it was for Lin Yi's sake. Even she herself was surprised.

"I wonder what heavenly materials and earthly treasures you guys want to use to exchange for it?" "The ice Spirit fruit is a specialty of the snow Valley," elder Zhang said."It's unique and has an extremely low production rate. It's one of the most precious treasures of the snow Valley, so if you can't bring out a treasure of equal or higher value to exchange for it, we won't make a move ..."

"We don't have any heavenly resources, but I've heard that they can be bought with money. May I know how much the fruit is worth?" Mengyao was planning to buy it anyway, so she didn't have any treasures.

"Use money to buy it?" Elder Zhang was taken aback. Only those hidden houses and small sects who didn't have anything good would come to the valley to buy some heavenly treasures, but they were just ordinary goods. The ice Spirit fruit had never been sold for money. The previous few had been exchanged.

"Yes, I am." Mengyao said with a nod.

"I may be an elder of the snow Valley, but I really can't decide the price of the fruit. Of course, even if you want to trade, I can 'T. You'll have to report it to the valley master." Elder Zhang said,"please take a rest in the nearby rooms. I'll ask the valley master for the price. Then, I'll give you an answer. What do you think?"

"I'll follow elder Zhang's orders!" What else could Mengyao say?

Besides, this result made Chu Mengyao very happy. Since elder Zhang didn't reject it on the spot, it meant that there was a chance. So, Chu Mengyao and the others were led to a guest room to rest.

Elder Zhang had left for a whole night, and it was already evening when Mengyao and the others arrived at the valley. It was normal for him to reply the next day, so no one was in a hurry.

In fact, elder Zhang had gone to see Xue Li as soon as he left the living room, but Xue Li was currently discussing with Bing Tang whether or not they could give Xiaoxiao to the valley. Elder Zhang didn't want to disturb her, and decided to wait until the next morning to ask.

However, the next morning, when elder Zhang met Valley master Xue Li, Xue Li's face was very gloomy. Her originally delicate and fair face was as dark as it could be. After seeing elder Zhang, she only nodded slightly.

Although Xue Li was the disciple of the Grand Elder and the previous master, she was only sky Class early phase. Elder Zhang was Sky Class mid phase, and Xue Li was very respectful to him before. Something must have happened this time.

"Valley master, what happened?" Elder Zhang was taken aback. He didn't bother to mention that someone had bought the ice Spirit fruit and asked directly.

"Bing Tang politely declined the conditions proposed by our Snow Valley ..." Xue Li sighed.

"Don't you think about the Ice Palace-metal, wood, water, fire, and earth-they need at least two inheritors for each element to have a high chance of opening Sky Class Island. If there's only one inheritor, it'll be very, very difficult ..." Elder Zhang said, confused.

"Of course, Bing Tang knows, but she vaguely mentioned to me that those people have already found a candidate for the water inheritor ..." Xue Li said helplessly,""With the Ice Palace's ice element, we'll have two water element inheritors-three might be safer, but which sect would be willing to give away a Sky Class late phase peak, a future Sky Class master?"

"That's true ..." Elder Zhang nodded with a regretful look on his face ...

"By the way, elder Zhang, why did you come to find me?" Xue Li was a little unhappy that she was rejected by Bing Tang, but some things couldn't be forced. Although she was young, she was still the master of a Valley, so her expression quickly returned to normal and she asked elder Zhang politely.

"Valley master, someone has come to the snow Valley to buy the ice Spirit fruit. He wants to buy it with money. I don't know how to set the price." Elder Zhang asked.

"Looking to buy the ice Spirit fruit? Which sect are you from? the fiery mountain or the sky elixir sect?" Xue Li asked, slightly surprised. After all, the ice Spirit fruit was a treasure, but it was also of little value. Only those who cultivated the Yang Fire attribute mental cultivation method could use it. For others, it was neither a medicinal herb nor could it increase their strength. That was why Xue Li asked.

However, whether it was the fiery flame mountain or the sky elixir sect, they would usually use treasures or elixirs of equivalent value to exchange for it. They wouldn't buy it directly with money, only the hidden houses and small sects would.

"None of them. The three girls aren't cultivators. The only cultivator is a young man who seems to be cultivating the Yang heart technique. He's been possessed by the devil. I don't know who gave him advice and came here to seek medicine. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendation and monthly votes.
