Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

But at that time, after the defeat, she thought these three little girls were going to be ruthless... who knew they just made her a herbal cuisine master.

Of course.

As a true inheritor of the Medicine King Valley, Su Qingdai was definitely not a lamb to be slaughtered.

Deep within her wide sleeves, a small, honest green snake was quietly coiled up.

The little snake occasionally flicked its red tongue, its big eyes bright and innocent, looking cute and harmless.

But if anyone dares to underestimate it, they will surely pay a painful price.

This is a truly Sixth-Layer variant Spirit Beast!

The reason Su Qingdai always concealed her abilities, willing to stay unremarkable and stew broth instead of showing her hand, is exactly for a moment like this!

”These girls have ridiculously good luck, and it seems they know quite a bit about the secrets of Luoxiao Grotto Heaven.”

Su Qingdai was calculating fiercely in her mind,

”The place where the Dragon Blood Bodhi is located is layered with arrays, and ferocious beasts lurk. By myself, even with Qing Huan’s help, I absolutely couldn’t get it. Better to use these three girls...”

She sighed inwardly, initially planning to use Yang Qiu to seize the Dragon Blood Bodhi.

Although Yang Qiu is powerful, his main body is weak. If she uses Qing Huan, combined with a secret poison, catching him off guard, she’s confident she can slay Yang Qiu.

Moreover, there’s no psychological burden in deceiving and killing someone like Yang Qiu, a Ten Thousand Puppet Corpse Cultivator.

Unfortunately, she hasn’t encountered him these days...

Su Qingdai’s gaze fell on Lu Zhiwei, who was meditating nearby, and she couldn’t help but shiver slightly in her heart.

This white-clad girl hadn’t even looked at her, yet Su Qingdai felt pricked like a thorn in the back.

That faint Sword Intent lingered around her constantly.

Su Qingdai had a strong intuition: if she dared to make any move, that sword would definitely be faster than the little snake in her sleeve!

Hiss... these girls seem stronger than Yang Qiu, and they don’t have Yang Qiu’s weaknesses either.

”Um...”

Su Qingdai paused, ultimately changing her mind,

”I can take you there! That place is extremely hidden, without the exclusive secret technique of Medicine King Valley, you wouldn’t find it even in ten years. But... after finding the Dragon Blood Bodhi, you must give me a share! I need it to break through to the Late Period of Foundation Establishment!”

”No way!”

The greedy little girl bristled immediately when someone wanted a share of her big fruit,

”They all belong to Qing Jun! They’re all for Master! Not a single one for you! Don’t even think about it!”

Su Qingdai gritted her teeth but didn’t back down, stubbornly looking at Lu Zhiwei.

She knew, among the three girls, the real decision-maker was this black-haired girl.

Zhiwei’s gaze lingered on Su Qingdai’s face for a moment.

”Okay.”

Zhiwei nodded calmly,

”As long as you lead the way, once it’s done, your share will not be lacking.”

”Senior sister!” Qing Jun stomped anxiously.

”Be good.” Zhiwei patted the little girl’s silver hair gently.

Qing Jun pouted in grievance but obediently murmured ”Oh,” only glaring fiercely at Su Qingdai.

Su Qingdai’s heart settled down.

Strangely, even though they were enemies just a few days ago and clashing swords, hearing Lu Zhiwei’s promise, an inexplicable strong sense of trust emerged within her.

”In that case, deal!” Su Qingdai dusted the dirt off her skirt, looking invigorated.

”Lead the way!” Qing Jun had already picked up her little backpack, eager to go.

Four girls, each with their own thoughts, transformed into escape light and sped away.

...

On the other end of Luoxiao Grotto Heaven.

”Cough, cough...”

Someone coughed violently, spitting out dark red blood.

Sitting cross-legged on a rock, Zhong Yue was in a miserable state.

His robust, rock-like body was mostly burnt to a charred black, wounds faintly revealing flickering ghostly blue embers.

If it weren’t for his solid foundation, as strong as an ox, that sinister flame would have long burned him to a handful of ashes.

Beside him stood He Qinyuan with a somber expression, Hua Wuyin shaking a folding fan without a smile, and Zhong Shan pacing anxiously.

He Qinyuan withdrew the hand delivering spiritual power onto Zhong Yue’s back, frowning deeply.

She glanced at the bronze soul lamp hanging at her waist, dim and dull as ordinary iron.

”It seems that the True Man’s deduction was wrong.”

He Qinyuan sighed,

”Over the past month, we’ve nearly traversed all dangerous locations, yet the soul lamp hasn’t shown a single unusual change. The reincarnation of Grandmaster Songyang, or any leftover soul traces, is simply not in this Luoxiao Grotto Heaven!”

Hua Wuyin snapped the folding fan shut with a ”swish,” his smile not reaching his eyes:

”We’ve wasted too much time on these ethereal legends and the fears of various True Men and True Monarchs. For this Luoxiao trial, we should refocus our efforts entirely on seizing opportunity... and completing the task entrusted by Gu Tangyin.”

Such a disrespectful statement surprisingly didn’t offend the cultivators from Huayue.

Because these days, they were all exhausted, especially Zhong Yue, who was seriously injured.

Mentioning the task made the faces of the four turn extremely grim.

The so-called task isn’t difficult.

Simply taking the chance to kill Yang Qiu from Ten Thousand Puppet Sect, Su Qingdai from Medicine King Valley, and some other True Inheritors with ulterior motives from Spirit Treasure Sect.

But unexpectedly.

Before they even made a move against those famous prodigies, they were already defeated by three inconspicuous girls from Lingyin Sect.

Actually, over the month, they did spot traces of those three girls.

In the external projection of the Luoxiao Grotto Heaven, they appeared twice.

But they weren’t always waiting to kill those three girls, and both times they were investigating various dangerous locations.

The first time they couldn’t escape, and the second time they could only send Zhong Yue again.

Originally, it was thought that it would be easy for Zhong Yue to handle three Early Period Foundation Establishment girls, but who could have known that this would result in such a miserable scene!

”Junior Brother Zhong, with your strength, even a Late Period Second Tier Demon Beast couldn’t harm you fundamentally. How could those girls, even with some immense secret weapon, possibly wound you like this?!”

Hua Wuyin looked at the persistent fire poison on Zhong Yue, his eye twitching slightly.

He had exhausted countless methods and used various secret techniques from Budu River, managing only to suppress it temporarily without eliminating it.

”Hoo... Hoo...”

Zhong Yue spat out another breath mixed with sparks, his cold, resolute face slightly contorting, gritting his teeth,

”I... don’t know. I was careless, that cultivator named Lin Jin, her fire technique was exquisite, and she had nurtured a Third Tier Spiritual Fire... Damn it! Yet I couldn’t get close to her!”

For Zhong Yue,

he and Jin’er practically restrained each other.

Jin’er’s fire technique could easily melt even Yang Qiu’s protective Magical Treasure, let alone Zhong Yue’s flesh?

Indeed.

Originally, with Zhong Yue’s physique, he could have easily resisted and killed Jin’er... But alas, Jin’er was not alone.

Once entangled by Zhiwei and Qing Jun,

he could only sit and wait for death, watching as Jin’er’s Divine Fire slowly consumed his body.

”Damn little girls! Daring to wound brother like this!”

Beside him, Zhong Shan listened, eyes bloodshot, muscles bulging like a frenzied bear,

”I’ll go find them now and crush their heads one by one, avenging brother!”

”Shut up! You brute!”

He Qinyuan coldly rebuked, casting a chilling glance that suppressed the anger of the burly giant.

She turned to Hua Wuyin, inquiring,

”What do you think, Hua Junior Brother?”

Hua Wuyin put away his feigned smile, gently tapping the folding fan in his palm.

”We both know Junior Brother Zhong’s strength. It’s not something that can be explained by carelessness alone. These three girls from Lingyin Sect... have indeed become formidable.”

He walked to Zhong Yue’s side, examining the remaining blue sparks on the wound, laughing bitterly,

”Third Tier Spiritual Fire... Quite the display. No wonder Senior Sister Gu wants us to eliminate them in the Grotto Heaven. If allowed to grow, they’ll become Golden Core True Men in the future.”

He Qinyuan nodded slightly, her killing intent unmistakable.

Originally, they regarded the hunt for these three girls as a task to be undertaken casually.

After all, in their eyes, the likes of Yang Qiu from Ten Thousand Puppet Sect and Su Qingdai from Medicine King Valley were true opponents to fear.

But now, these three insignificant ants even managed to wound their people!

”Since the task from Grandmaster Songyang is void, there’s no need to disperse our focus.”

He Qinyuan decisively concluded,

”Though we cannot find those three girls now, we should seek members from other sects... Kill a few with the most potential from each sect, and I doubt the Five Sects of Yan Country can find any grounds for protest!”

If we were to kill them all, it would surely infuriate the Five Sects... But if just one or two are killed, who would notice?

Moreover, those from Ten Thousand Puppet Sect didn’t fall at their hands...
