"Regardless of whether I can make it in time, I still have to give it a try." Pei Guangbin was also a decisive person. He immediately said, "Young Miss, since Li Haibo can find my position, then it is not suitable for this subordinate to follow Young Miss back to the main hall. Young Hero Lu, please take care of Young Miss along the way. This Pei will be eternally grateful."
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Miss Su saved my life, so it is only natural for me to ensure her safety. Captain Pei, on the other hand, you should be careful. Since they are able to track your location, once they notice that Li Haibo and the others have failed, they might send more people to deal with you."
Pei Guangbin's mouth revealed a trace of a bitter smile as he said, "It seems that I will have to hide in these mountains for the rest of my life."
Lu Xuan laughed heartily and said, "There is no need for that. The medicinal effect of the medicinal pill only lasts for three months. After three months, Captain Pei will be safe. Since two and a half months have passed, then in another half a month or so, they will no longer be able to track Captain Pei's position."
Pei Guangbin heard this and immediately felt relieved. So it was only three months. This was a blessing in misfortune. However, he said with some shame, "Hall Master and Young Miss have shown me great kindness, but at this time, Hundred Herb Hall is in trouble, and I am unable to help. I am truly ashamed."
Su Ye faintly smiled and said, "Big Brother Pei doesn't need to take it to heart. Presumably, those traitors and Bei Bo Ruo's people will think that I am with you. You helping me delay them here is already a great merit. However, Big Brother Pei must be careful."
"There is no time to lose. Young Miss, please hurry. This subordinate will do his best to delay the people who want to deal with Young Miss." Pei Guangbin cupped his fists and said.
Su Ye nodded and looked at the Wounded Unicorn Forest. She said, "Unfortunately, in the end, I still couldn't get good quality medicinal ingredients for Grandfather's birthday."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. Women will always be women. Why are they still thinking about these things at a time like this? But after thinking for a moment, he took out a wooden box from his storage ring and said, "I still have a few sets of spiritual materials here. I'll give them to you, Miss Su. Just take it as a token of my appreciation to Elder Su."
Su Ye received it, feeling somewhat puzzled. She did not know what other good items Lu Xuan possessed. Although the Hundred Herb Hall was only a Third Grade Faction, it focused on the Dao of Alchemy. Ordinary medicinal ingredients would not catch her grandfather's eye.
Pei Guangbin also looked over curiously. Since Lu Xuan was an Origin Realm expert, his moves shouldn't be too bad, right? No matter what, it had to be a spirit material above Human Rank Nine or above.
When Su Ye opened the wooden box, a pure white peony giving off a cold aura appeared before them. When Su Ye saw this peony, she could not help but exclaim in shock, "Frost Pond Peony!"
She was born in an alchemy family, so how could she not recognize such a precious spirit material? This Frost Pond Peony was actually an Earth Rank Three spiritual material! Let alone a Third Grade Faction, even in a Fourth Grade Faction, it would be a rare treasure.
Pei Guangbin's eyes almost popped out. What kind of person was this Young Hero Lu? How could he give away such a treasure just like that?
Su Ye hurriedly pushed it back and said, "Young Master Lu, this gift is too valuable. I cannot accept it."
Lu Xuan paid no attention to her. He just stared fixedly at the Frigid Pond Peony. He vaguely remembered that not long ago, he seemed to have given a Frigid Pond Peony to a woman.
If he could remember, it would definitely be of great help to him in recovering his memory. But Lu Xuan racked his brains, but he still could not find any clues. He only remembered the two words "Peony", which gave him a very familiar feeling.
Lu Xuan returned to his senses and smiled apologetically at Su Ye, saying, "I'm sorry, I seemed to have thought of something just now and was a little distracted. What did Miss Su say?"
"Young Master Lu, please take back this treasure. This time, when Hundred Herb Hall was in trouble, I am already extremely grateful that Young Master Lu was willing to help. How can I accept Young Master Lu's precious treasure?"
Lu Xuan shook his head and pushed the Frost Pond Peony back, saying, "How can I take back something that I've given away? Is my life not worth a mere stalk of spiritual material? Moreover, if Miss Su could inform Old Man Su of this news, it would already be a great birthday gift. How can a Frost Pond Peony compare to it?"
Su Ye could only reluctantly accept it and said, "Then I shall present this borrowed flower to Buddha. Treat it as Young Master Lu's birthday gift to Grandfather."
When Su Ye carefully placed the wooden box into her Storage Ring, the group of guards immediately followed, intending to follow Su Ye back to the main hall and escort Su Ye along the way. But they were stopped by Su Ye.
"Stay here and help Big Brother Pei, lest he is alone. I have Young Master Lu to protect me, so I won't be in danger. Besides, there are so many of us. If we show ourselves, I'm afraid we'll attract the attention of others."
Pei Guangbin said worriedly, "Miss, it's better if you bring your brothers with you. It'll be safer that way. Miss, you don't need to worry about my safety."
At this moment, Lu Xuan said confidently, "All of you stay here. With me protecting Miss Su, there won't be any problems. Besides, we'll definitely be able to make it in time for Old Man Su's birthday gift."
Just as everyone looked at each other, wondering where Lu Xuan's confidence came from, they saw Lu Xuan wave his hand and toss out a small and exquisite spirit boat. Very quickly, the spirit boat grew to several feet long.
"A flying spirit boat!" This time, Su Ye wasn't the only one who was shocked. All the guards cried out in surprise. This flying spirit boat wasn't something an ordinary person could own. Putting aside its price, just the cost alone was not something an ordinary person could afford. Compared to this flying spirit boat, the Frigid Pond Peony Lu Xuan had given them previously was nothing.
For a moment, everyone looked at Lu Xuan with reverence. He already possessed such strength at such a young age. In addition to his extraordinary skills, there was no doubt that he had an extraordinary identity. He was definitely a genius disciple of some great power, or even the son of some great figure. They didn't expect that the person they had randomly saved would have such a background. Now that they thought about it, it was indeed the First Miss who had a good eye.
"Miss, this Young Master Lu doesn't look like an ordinary person. Miss, you don't seem to have anyone in your heart? If it's possible, I think you and Young Master Lu are a good match. " Pei Guangbin secretly transmitted his voice to Su Ye. Girls were thin-skinned and there were some things they couldn't say. As a subordinate, he felt that it was necessary for him to remind her.
Su Ye's face turned slightly red and she glared at Pei Guangbin. Pei Guangbin could only smile awkwardly. In any case, he had already reminded her. What the First Miss wanted to do was not something he could control.
"I didn't expect Young Master Lu to have a treasure like a flying spirit boat. That's great. I'll have to trouble Young Master Lu this time." Su Ye bowed slightly and said.
"Let's set off. Miss Su, please."
The two of them stepped into Lu Xuan's Gentle Wind Spirit Boat. Under Lu Xuan's control, the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat soared into the sky at an extremely fast speed and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
One of the guards couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration and said, "I really didn't expect Young Master Lu to have such a great background. I wonder if it's possible for the First Miss to tie the knot with Young Master Lu. At that time, as the First Miss's guards, we can also bask in the limelight."
"That's right. If I were the First Miss, I would definitely grasp this opportunity. Not only did the First Miss save Young Master Lu's life, but Young Master Lu has also lost his memory. If we don't seize this opportunity now, when will we?"
The group of guards started discussing among themselves. Pei Guangbin couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at his group of brothers. He didn't expect them to have the same thoughts as him. However, he coughed and said, "Don't talk about the First Miss behind her back. Let's quickly move to another place. We mustn't stay in the same place for too long."
"Yes, captain!"
…
About half a day later, a Flying Spirit Boat landed shakily far away from the city. Soon after, Lu Xuan and Su Ye emerged from the Flying Spirit Boat. Without a doubt, this was Lu Xuan's Gentle Wind Spirit Boat.
Looking at the motionless Gentle Wind Spirit Boat on the ground, Lu Xuan couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh and said, "I seem to have been in a rush for some matters in the past. I flew at a speed faster than the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat and caused it to suffer internal damage. I didn't expect it to stop working at this time."
Su Ye was rather understanding and said, "It's not a big deal. We've already covered a lot of distance in the past half a day. Even if we don't have a Flying Spirit Boat, we will definitely be able to reach the headquarters."
From Su Ye's point of view, Lu Xuan must have used the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat to escape. That was why he suddenly appeared in the Wounded Kylin Forest and caused the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat to be damaged.
"I hope so." Lu Xuan sighed. According to Su Ye's description, he estimated that he would be able to reach the headquarters of the Hundred Herb Hall in two days if he used the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat. Now, it seemed that he would have to postpone that.
Lu Xuan immediately kept the damaged Gentle Wind Spirit Boat. The two of them executed their movement techniques and flew towards the nearest city according to Su Ye's directions.
Because Lu Xuan had fused with the Cloud Piercing Wings, his flying speed was also incomparably fast. However, Su Ye's strength was only at the 6th layer of the Spirit Refinement Realm, which was not considered high. Therefore, Lu Xuan had no choice but to control his speed and fly slowly with Su Ye.
Having just experienced the speed of the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat, Su Ye felt that flying on her own was incomparably slow. She was worried about the safety of the Hundred Herb Hall and her grandfather. She couldn't help but look at Lu Xuan, who was leisurely following behind her. It was obvious that this speed was as easy as eating and drinking to Lu Xuan.
She pursed her lips and hesitated for a while. In the end, she couldn't help but say softly, "Young Master Lu, if you don't mind, why don't you bring me along?" After saying that, she hurriedly added, "I want to hurry back."
Actually, Lu Xuan also had the same thought. This speed made him want to sleep. However, he was obviously too embarrassed to bring it up. Now that Su Ye had taken the initiative to bring it up, he naturally agreed.
