Lu Xuan and Su Ye came to a sudden realization when they saw this annotation. It turned out that the true meaning of the Exquisite Tree Root was the Spiritual Dragon Tree Root. Furthermore, it was not a fixed medicinal ingredient, but a tree root that had been contaminated with Dragon Qi.
"No wonder the pill formula says that the Spiritual Dragon Tree Root is used to replenish one's Blood Qi. Anything that has been tainted with Dragon Qi will naturally have a strong Blood Qi." Lu Xuan nodded.
Su Ye turned to look at Lu Xuan and said, "Although we have found information about the Jewel Tree Root and know what it is, it is still something that has been tainted with Dragon Qi. Although we have heard many legends about dragons since we were young, we have never seen one. Whether dragons really exist in the Heavenly Sword Continent is still unknown. Where can we find the Jewel Tree Root?"
Lu Xuan smiled faintly. He did not dare say anything else, but he was certain that dragons existed. After all, he possessed the Azure Dragon Bloodline. As for how to find it, that was not up to Lu Xuan. It would depend on whether Xia Qi had the ability or not.
"We don't need to worry about that. I will report this to His Majesty and he will naturally send people to search for it." Lu Xuan said.
Su Ye nodded. Since she had found useful information for Xia Qi, her task could be considered completed. However, she did not know what to say at that moment. She just sat there quietly and looked at Lu Xuan. She had been busy searching for relevant information for the past few nights and did not have the mood to think about anything else. Now that she had suddenly stopped, a man and a woman were alone in a room, the atmosphere could not help but be a little enchanting.
Meeting Su Ye's gaze, Lu Xuan felt guilty. He coughed lightly and said, "Su Ye, you rest first. I will go to the quiet room to cultivate."
Seeing Lu Xuan's disheveled back, Su Ye could not help but giggle. What a coward, not even daring to touch me.
The next morning, Lu Xuan walked out of the quiet room. Su Ye had already prepared water for him and personally prepared breakfast. After breakfast, Lu Xuan looked at Su Ye.
"I plan to leave for Nine Dragons City today."
Su Ye's hand, which was in the midst of arranging the bowls and chopsticks, could not help but pause for a moment. Then, she continued to tidy up. Without raising her head, she asked, "Will you come back?"
Lu Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's possible that he won't be back for some time. I'll leave the City of Medicine King to you."
Su Ye finally raised her head. Tears welled up in her eyes. She sniffled and said, "You heartless man."
Lu Xuan was speechless. After standing for a while, he said, "I'm leaving. Take care."
"Hey, you're not even going to give me a hug?" Su Ye shouted as she watched Lu Xuan leave.
"Didn't I run away with you last time …" Lu Xuan turned around and said helplessly.
"How can that be the same?" Su Ye said as she twisted her sleeves.
However, Lu Xuan turned around and continued to walk away. Su Ye stomped her feet angrily. What a heartless man. Even if it was a fake marriage, he could not bully her like this, right?
However, at that moment, a figure suddenly flashed by and quickly hugged Su Ye. Su Ye could not help but jump in fright. However, when she smelled a familiar scent, she was pleasantly surprised. It was Lu Xuan! Just as she was about to say something, she felt a warm sensation on her forehead.
He actually … kissed me just like that?
Su Ye stretched out her hands to hug Lu Xuan back. However, her arms were already empty. Lu Xuan's figure was flying towards the door. The speed of the Blitz Thunder Escape was too fast. In the blink of an eye, Lu Xuan had already disappeared from Su Ye's sight.
Su Ye touched the spot on her forehead where Lu Xuan had kissed her. She could still feel the warmth from his kiss. She could not help but think of a saying: You are a gust of wind. I cannot keep you here, nor can I keep your heart …
"Your Highness, do you need us to accompany you to the Imperial Palace?" Wang Chao hurriedly asked the moment he saw Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said, "There is no need. I will go alone. All of you must protect Su Ye. If there is any trouble that you cannot handle, you can head to Jiulong City to look for His Majesty or the Fourth Prince."
"This subordinate understands." Wang Chao cupped his hands in salute.
Lu Xuan nodded and immediately rushed towards Jiulong City. Xia Qi was probably still worried about Lu Xuan.
When Xia Qi heard that Lu Xuan had returned, he immediately summoned him. At the same time, he was filled with anticipation. For Lu Xuan to return at this time, he must have discovered something.
As expected, the first thing Lu Xuan said when he saw Xia Qi was, "Your Majesty, Su Ye has found news about the Linglong Tree Root."
Xia Qi was overjoyed when he heard that, "Your Majesty, Su Ye has found news about the Linglong Tree Root?" Haha, this Emperor must reward her heavily. Oh right, you and Little Ye suddenly got married. This Emperor hasn't had the time to give her a gift. In the past, this Emperor had promised to officiate her wedding. "
Lu Xuan did not expect Xia Qi to bring up this matter first. He felt a little awkward and quickly changed the topic, "These are all small matters. Your Majesty's injuries are more important. Although Su Ye has managed to find news of the Exquisite Tree Root, it will not be easy to find it. "
"Oh? Tell this Emperor in detail. "Xia Qi asked curiously.
Lu Xuan immediately told Xia Qi about the Linglong Tree Root in detail. After listening to it, Xia Qi frowned slightly. The Linglong Tree Root was really not easy to find ah.
A smile appeared on Xia Zhengwen's face as he said, "Imperial Brother, there is no need to worry. Don't forget, we are the Nine Dragons Empire. We have plenty of dragon qi. Isn't there a dragon soul trapped in the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal? Since the Linglong Tree Root is a tree root that has been tainted with the spiritual dragon qi, we should be able to find a suitable one in the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal. "
Xia Qi slapped his forehead and exclaimed in joy, "That's right! This Emperor actually forgot about this. The Linglong Tree Root will definitely be found in the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal. "
"However, when this Emperor was preparing to test the princes, the evil dragon was released. If we want to find a suitable root in the seal, we will have to suppress it first."
"This shouldn't be a problem for Your Majesty, right? Since the princes are able to suppress the dragon soul, the Southern Zhennan King alone should be enough. "Lu Xuan asked.
Xia Qi shook his head, "You might not know this, but in order to suppress the dragon soul's strength, the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal's ancestors laid down layers of array formations, preventing the evil dragon from unleashing its full strength. However, this also limits our strength. In order to suppress the evil dragon, we can only rely on our advantage in numbers."
So that's how it is. Lu Xuan nodded his head lightly. This Nine Dragons Empire's ancestor was really thoughtful. Since both sides' strength was limited, no matter how strong the evil dragon was, it was still alone. However, the Nine Dragons Empire's number of people who could enter the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal far surpassed the evil dragon.
"Since we are going to enter the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal, why don't we call the princes over as well? This Emperor can personally witness their strength. Royal Younger Brother, go inform the princes to bring their followers as well. Lu Xuan, you go in as well. Whether the Linglong Tree Root meets the requirements or not, it's up to you to judge. "Xia Qi made up his mind.
Lu Xuan naturally complied. When he agreed to help Xia Xi, he also had the intention of going to the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal to take a look. Who would have thought that after going around in a big circle, with so many things happening, he would still return to the starting point. The princes would still bring their followers into the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal.
Receiving Xia Zhengwen's notice, the princes who were eyeing the throne were stunned. They didn't expect Xia Qi to still want them to enter the Nine Dragons Imperial Seal after recovering from his injuries.
Xia Qi didn't mention that the purpose of this trip was to search for the Linglong Tree Root. This made everyone think that Xia Qi still wanted to use this method to search for the successor to the throne. In an instant, everyone's spirits were lifted, and they were determined to perform well.
Xia Xi had also come with a few attendants. Ever since they had been recruited by Xia Xi, they had become Xia Xi's people.
"Prince An Ping, do you still remember me?" Tian Xin came up and cupped his hands in greeting to Lu Xuan. Compared to the last time they fought, Lu Xuan's current status could be said to be completely different. Tian Xin couldn't help but admire Lu Xuan's ability.
"Haha, Brother Tian, how have you been?" Lu Xuan laughed.
"Prince An Ping, please don't address me like that. This one can't afford it." Tian Xin smiled bitterly. Lu Xuan didn't put on any airs, but he was, after all, the Prince An Ping.
Xia Xi walked up to Lu Xuan and whispered, "Lu Xuan, what does Father Emperor want this time? Do you know? Could it be that there's a change in his condition and he wants to pass on the throne again? "
Lu Xuan said in a low voice, "That's not the case. His Majesty is just going to look for some herbs in the Nine Dragon Jade Seal. He called you guys along just to see how strong you all are. The Fourth Prince might be able to use this opportunity to perform well.
Xia Xi nodded in understanding. So that's how it was. After that, he looked at Lu Xuan gratefully. This was the benefit of having connections. His brothers still foolishly thought that Father Emperor wanted to pass on the throne. If not for Lu Xuan's reminder, he would have thought so too.
"Last time, we released the evil dragon from the Nine Dragon Jade Seal. Today, we will take this opportunity to test you all. Help us suppress the evil dragon. We will personally enter and see your performance." Xia Qi said in a dignified voice.
"We obey Father Emperor's command!" Xia Xi and the other princes replied in unison.
Xia Qi nodded his head in satisfaction. After that, he raised his hand and tossed out a jade seal. This was the national treasure of the Nine Dragon Dynasty, the Nine Dragon Jade Seal!
Xia Qi performed a hand seal, and the bottom of the Nine Dragon Jade Seal suddenly released a burst of light, enveloping everyone present.
Lu Xuan felt a suction force coming over, as if he was about to be sucked into the Nine Dragon Jade Seal. He immediately gave up resisting and his body disappeared in an instant.
In the next moment, when Lu Xuan regained his vision, he felt that he had arrived in an extremely mysterious space. There seemed to be no sky here. When he raised his head, there was only a vast expanse of whiteness. The place he was in was an empty space. Not far away from him was a mountain forest, and it didn't seem any different from the outside world.
However, what puzzled Lu Xuan was why he was the only one here. Where were Xia Qi, Xia Xi, and the others?
