Lou Dehua finally heaved a sigh of relief after returning to his own territory. However, they had to be careful and keep a low profile during this period of time. Zou Yunfa and the others also hurried back home. Who would dare to be caught by that young man alone after such a thing had happened? Wouldn't that be courting death? Before the identity and intentions of that young man were completely clear, they had to be extremely careful.
"I have already found four of the herbs needed for the Five Barrier Pill. Only the Rootless Flower is nowhere to be found. I have also asked many people, but none of them knew anything about it. Therefore, I can only pin my hopes on you. Brother Lou, you must help me with this."
Jiang Chen had a look of anticipation on his face. Lou Dehua was his only hope now. After all, the Galaxy Auction House was a big business. He should have heard of something like the Rootless Flower.
"I really don't know. If I knew, if I had, I would definitely give it to you unconditionally. You are the chief alchemist of our Galaxy Auction House."
Lou Dehua was also in a difficult position. He really didn't know the origin of the Rootless Flower. As for where to find it, it was even more unimaginable.
"Rootless Flower … It seems that it is not easy to gather the herbs for the Five Barrier Pill. Now, I am really a headless fly. Perhaps even when my strength breaks through to the Star Level, I might not be able to find it."
Jiang Chen was helpless, but he could only accept the reality. Some things could only be found by chance.
"How about this, Brother Jiang. I will spread the news and see if any alchemists of our Galaxy Auction House or old people know about the Rootless Flower. As long as there is any news, I will inform you."
Lou Dehua pondered for a moment and said.
Jiang Chen's heart moved. There was more or less a glimmer of hope.
"Thank you, Brother Lou. If you need Jiang Chen's help in the future, I will definitely not let you down."
"You are too polite, Brother Jiang. Hahaha, the eight words have not been written yet. But this time, after I spread the news, at least it will not sink into the sea. Someone will definitely know about it. There are also many alchemists of our Galaxy Auction House."
Although Lou Dehua didn't dare to guarantee it, he still had some confidence.
Jiang Chen left the Celestial River Auction House with satisfaction. As for who that young man was, he would deal with it when the time came. Even if he was worried, there was nothing he could do. After all, even Lou Dehua did not know his identity.
…
On Wild Chrysanthemum Mountain, the waterfall splashed. In the middle of the lake, a woman dressed in yellow leaned against the railing. She looked at the flying butterflies and the water curtain in the distance, lost in thought.
Her yellow dress was stained with tears as she wiped her cheeks.
Above the blue water, the white-robed man walked over, moving as if he was flying.
"Since you've already made up your mind, don't let your imagination run wild. Otherwise, father will be unhappy."
Mo Han Leng Leng said.
The woman was silent. She was Luo Ying, who had disappeared from the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
Luo Ying smiled sadly, but no one could understand the bitterness at the corner of her mouth.
"I know, I won't see him again."
"It's good that you understand. I've already warned Xiao Tai that the relationship between you two should be severed. He's a good person, but unfortunately, he's not suitable for you."
Mo Han's cold face showed a rare trace of emotion.
"As long as Xiao Tai doesn't make things difficult for him. Thank you, brother."
Luo Ying looked at Mo Han's back and said in a low voice.
Mo Han trembled and didn't say anything. After all, Luo Ying was his sister, and he couldn't stay out of it. Not to mention that Jiang Chen was also his mother's savior.
"Prepare yourself. Although Xiao Tai isn't the one you love, he's the best choice."
Luo Ying looked on anxiously. Her heart was filled with mixed feelings, but she had no other choice because this was the only way out. She could not refuse Xiao Tai, and she could not refuse her father, even if he was not a competent father.
As a member of a wealthy family, how many people knew of her sorrow? She didn't even have a chance to prove herself. She originally wanted to prove herself through the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, but she was firmly bound by the shackles of this marriage. There was no place for her to go in this world.
Loneliness, helplessness, and despair filled Luo Ying's heart. However, she wasn't alone. If she didn't agree, her mother would definitely be forced to death by her father. She could only silently endure and resign herself to adversity.
On this ice-cold planet, no one cared about her feelings, and no one knew what she was thinking in the depths of her heart. She yearned for freedom, but her entire life was shackled by fate. When she met Jiang Chen, she finally had a glimmer of hope, but it was precisely this glimmer of hope that caused her to sink deeper into despair. Wanting to love but not being able to love was the most lonely thing, and wanting to stay but not being able to stay was the most difficult choice.
If she insisted on going her own way at this moment, it was very likely that she would bring harm to Jiang Chen, causing him to be consigned to eternal damnation. Then, her love would bring harm to Jiang Chen. Luo Ying would rather choose to escape and never see him again.
Jiang Chen, I don't know if I'm the person in your heart that makes you worry about me?
Perhaps our love is just deep but our fate is shallow. We just regret not meeting each other earlier. We just … shouldn't have met each other. However, if she hadn't met Jiang Chen, her mother's illness wouldn't have been cured, and her lonely, ghost-like soul would never have found a place to rest.
If you can, forgetting me might be the best ending for you, but how can I forget you?
At that moment, heavy rain poured down from the sky. Luo Ying hugged her knees with her arms and sobbed constantly. It turned out that love could make a person's heart ache so much.
…
After Jiang Chen returned to the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, his heart became more and more depressed. He always felt that there was something fishy about this matter. If he didn't figure out the identity of that young man, he would never be at ease.
The matter of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse finally settled. Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of Luo Ying. Her whereabouts were erratic, and no one knew where she was. She appeared and disappeared like a ghost, and even he was confused. Without Luo Ying, he always felt that something was missing, and an inexplicable feeling lingered in his heart. It was undeniable that Luo Ying occupied a pivotal position in his heart. After he entered the Eternal World, she was the only person he cared about.
However, the current Jiang Chen was no longer as indecisive as he had been in the past. He had more important things to do, so he had to cut off the emotions that made his mind confused. He had to focus on becoming stronger and finding his loved ones.
Three days later, Jiang Chen finally received news from Lou Dehua. He couldn't wait to rush to the Star River Auction House.
"How is it, Brother Lou? Is there any news?"
Jiang Chen asked hurriedly as soon as he entered the auction house.
Lou Dehua smiled awkwardly and shook his head. Jiang Chen frowned, feeling slightly disappointed.
