Inside the Medicinal Garden of Immortality, before a cottage.
The lady in white was elegant and out of this world. Her temperament was like that of a fairy. She formed a hand seal and emitted a mysterious energy that was trying to regain control of the floating 30 percent of the garden.
After a while, the mysterious energy dissipated.
The lady in white turned around and looked at the handsome man before her. She smiled brightly, "Thank you for helping me regain control of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality."
"You are being too polite. It seems like you have regained control." Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips. After he walked out of the Manor of Light, he returned to the Medicinal Garden of Immortality and told the lady about Di Tian's death.
"Yes, that person is dead. Of course I can regain control." The lady in white nodded and revealed a smile that could turn the world upside down.
It was obvious how happy she was right now.
To her, the Medicinal Garden of Immortality was her royal land, her territory. To have absolute control over it was naturally something to be happy about.
Ling Xian grinned, "If that's the case, then the deal is done. I don't owe you anything."
"Thank you, Ling Xian. I will remember your kindness." The lady in white's expression was calm, but her tone was firm. It was obvious that she truly appreciated Ling Xian.
"Don't thank me. You also saved my life. I should be the one thanking you." Ling Xian brandished his hand, "That's it. I won't disturb you any longer. I will leave now."
Then, he turned around and walked towards the cottage. He was about to call Yan Ning Zhi and the others to leave the Medicinal Garden of Immortality.
However, just as he turned around, the lady in white spoke softly and stopped him.
"Wait a minute."
Ling Xian frowned and asked, "Is there something else?"
"You forgot one thing. Our deal is not over." The lady in white smiled. Though she was very reluctant, she was a person of her words. What she promised, she must be done.
"Not over?"
Ling Xian was startled. Then, he remembered something and smiled, "There is no need to be so polite. You have already saved my life. I can't ask for your leaf anymore."
"You don't want it?"
The white-robed woman brushed away a strand of hair on her forehead and playfully smiled. "Have you thought it through? You know who I am, so I think you should understand just how precious a single leaf of mine is."
"It's not just precious. It can be said to be immeasurable. Even the strongest cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation World would be moved by it. " Ling Xian bitterly chuckled. Of course, he knew what the woman in white's original form was and how valuable her leaf was.
If this woman hadn't saved his life before, he naturally wouldn't be polite. However, the white-clothed woman had saved his life, after all. Of course, he couldn't bring himself to ask for that priceless leaf.
"Since you understand, then you should know that opportunities like this are extremely rare. Do you really not want it?" The woman in white's lips curled up as she stared at the handsome young man before her. It was getting harder and harder for her to see through him.
As the ruler of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality, she has lived as long as the Palace of Fortune. She has seen countless humans. Not to mention a single leaf of hers, even if it was a spiritual medicine, the cultivators who entered this place would fight to the death.
Therefore, she had always thought that humans were greedy.
After Ling Xian declined, she was naturally surprised. For the first time, she was curious about this man.
"Of course I want such a treasure. It's just that I have no reason to." Ling Xian bitterly smiled.
"You sure are an interesting person." The woman in white softly grinned, "Take it. This is what we agreed on in the beginning. I don't want to be someone who goes back on his word."
Then, her smile disappeared and her expression turned serious. She formed a hand seal and decided to take off one of her leaves.
Immediately, a milky white light rippled out.
Then, a palm-sized dark green leaf appeared, emitting a refreshing fragrance.
"Phew … this is the legendary Leaf of the Undead?"
Staring at the green leaf in midair, Ling Xian's eyes were heated and his breathing hastened.
This was the legendary Immortal Leaf that was said to be able to revive the dead and regrow flesh and bones. Even a peerless expert would go crazy for it!
"That's right. This item has the ability to revive the dead. It can be considered the number one spiritual medicine." The woman in white nodded with a smile. However, her face was a little pale.
It was obvious that taking out this leaf cost her a lot of energy. Despite this, she still took it. This was enough to prove that she was a woman of her words.
Noticing how weak she was, Ling Xian frowned and asked with concern, "Fairy, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Though I lost some of my energy, I will recover after some rest." The woman in white brandished her hand, "Okay, take this Leaf of the Undead. If you run into danger in the future, it can save your life."
"Thank you for your generous gift."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up as he stared at the translucent leaf passionately. He was very happy.
This was the Leaf of the Undead. To have this item was the same as having a second life. The value of this item was unimaginable. Even with his mentality, he couldn't help but to be excited.
Flapping around his sleeve, Ling Xian carefully put away the Leaf of the Undead. Then, he paid his respect to the woman with a smile, "I, Ling Xian, will remember your kindness. If you need anything in the future, come find me."
"With your natural talent, you really might be able to help me in the future. Consider this an investment." The woman in white had a smile on her lips. Her limpid eyes stared at Ling Xian with anticipation.
It was as if she was looking forward to the day he becomes a powerhouse.
Ling Xian's expression was serious as he said in a low voice, "If that day ever comes, I will not say no."
"Very good. Remember what you said today." The woman in white softly grinned and waved her hand, "Okay, you go first. I need to rest."
"Okay, you can rest now." Ling Xian nodded softly and walked towards the other cottage.
Entering the cottage, he slowly walked to the stone bed. Then, he mentally summoned the Array Lifting Stone, Di Tian's storage pouch, and the green leaf.
"So these are my gains from this trip. This trip sure was worth it."
Looking at the three treasures floating in midair, Ling Xian's lips curled up into a smile. He was very satisfied.
Ignoring Di Tian's storage pouch, he didn't even know what was inside it. However, the Array Lifting Stone and the Leaf of the Undead were enough to drive all cultivators crazy. Ling Xian was naturally satisfied.
On top of that, what the Array Lifting Stone and the Leaf of the Undead represented made him even more excited.
The former represented breaking the Immortal Trap, which could help him advance to a higher level. The latter represented a new life, which was extremely precious.
"Now that I have the Array Lifting Stone, it's time to break through." Ling Xian smiled and mumbled to himself, "But for now, let's see what's inside Di Tian's storage pouch."
Then, he waved his hand and the gold storage pouch flew into his hand.
"A Heaven's Favorite, the leader of the Alliance of Tyrants, he must be very wealthy." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up as anticipation flashed across his eyes.
"I hope there are treasures inside that will surprise me."
