Along the way, Yue Qianchou was still wondering what the Spirit Nurturing Grass was for. And who was that Ma Jiugu? She must be someone extraordinary for Elder Fei, who was in charge of Myriad Fragrance Garden, to call her 'Aunt'. Thinking about this, he felt slightly nervous.
The female disciple who led the way at the side sized Yue Qianchou up from time to time. Naturally, it wasn't because she had taken a fancy to him. With his ordinary appearance that was at the bottom of the pile of ordinary people, there were probably very few people that would take a fancy to him. She was also wondering who this person was. Elder Fei personally borrowed him from the Alchemy Pavilion. Why did he make him do the work of nurturing the Spirit Herbs?
The female disciple suddenly recalled a rumor a few days ago. There was an itinerant cultivator who entered Supporting Immortal Island with an Immortal Supporting Medallion. He was the disciple of Alchemy Pavilion's Elder Guan. It was said that dozens of elders fought fiercely for the Immortal Supporting Medallion. In the end, it was Elder Guan who obtained the Immortal Supporting Medallion. That itinerant cultivator's name was Yue Qianchou. Could it be this person?
Thinking about this, the doubts in her heart were easily resolved. When she looked at Yue Qianchou again, a trace of pity appeared in her eyes.
Yue Qianchou felt gloomy. He looked at the scenery of Myriad Fragrance Garden to relieve his worries.
There were all kinds of spirit herbs planted all around the garden. Smelling the refreshing fragrance, there were many beauties working in the garden. There were all kinds of terrains in the Wanfen Garden. There were high hills, low depressions, and flat lands, and all kinds of spiritual herbs were planted everywhere. There were also many flowers and fruits. The colorful spiritual herbs swayed in the breeze. Occasionally, when the wind was strong, the hem of a skirt would be blown up and a delicate hand would be pressed down. It made one's imagination run wild.
What a great place! It turned out that spiritual herbs and beauties were also a pretty good scenery. Yue Qianchou's worries eased a lot. At the same time, he couldn't help but admire the eyesight of the major sects in the Cultivation World when it came to accepting disciples. Not all of the female disciples were outstanding beauties, but because they all cultivated their bones, their appearances were much better than ordinary mortals. Of course, not everyone with a good bone structure had a good appearance. There were some people who were ugly but talented, but they were in the minority.
All in all, as far as the eye could see, the spiritual herbs were all pretty girls! Mm! There were also women who were in their prime and were slightly more mature and alluring. Yue Qianchou was a little absent-minded as he wondered if he had arrived at Womanland.
They arrived at the foot of a mountain. It wasn't really a mountain, but it was at most a slightly higher hill. However, it occupied quite a large area. There were very few trees around the hill, and most of them were covered by various kinds of spirit herbs. The entire hilltop was occupied by an antique courtyard. It was obvious that it was a building that had existed for a long time. Although Yue Qianchou's cultivation level was not high, along the way, he noticed that the spiritual energy nurtured by this mountain was the most abundant. The spiritual energy had already condensed into a faint mist.
The female disciple stopped and reminded him, "Yue Qianchou, this hilltop is the residence of Consecrated Aunt Jiu. Consecrated Aunt Jiu doesn't like noise, so don't make too much noise later."
Yue Qianchou thought that she was reminding him out of kindness, but from the faint fear on her face, he could see that she was afraid that he would implicate her. The two of them were not familiar with each other, let alone a woman, so he didn't mind. He looked at the building on the hilltop and asked, "Is Consecrated Aunt Jiu the Ma Jiu that Elder Fei mentioned?"
"Lower your voice!" The female disciple seemed to be startled by his words. "Ma Jiugu is not someone we can call," she said in a soft voice. "Elder Fei only calls her that in front of us, but he would never dare to call her that in front of Reverend Jiugu. Consecrated Aunt Jiu used to be the aunt of the former Sect Leader, and also the previous Elder who presided over Wanfen Garden. Her cultivation level has reached the late stage of Passing Calamity, and even the current Sect Leader has to greet her and call her Aunt Jiu. "
Yue Qianchou replied with an "oh" and looked at the hilltop. He thought, 'So it's Ferdinand who wants to save face. But why did he send me to the old monster's place? Does he want to use the old monster to kill me? ' He wondered who would be stronger in a fight between the old monster and his sister. Both of them were in the late stage of Passing Calamity.
"Let's go!" The female disciple said. Yue Qianchou nodded. He had originally wanted to get close to her and ask her what her name was, but seeing how timid she was and how she could barely be considered a beauty, he gave up on that thought.
Going up the bluestone stairs to the hilltop and standing outside the wall, Yue Qianchou found that the courtyard was really big and the wall was really high. The tall courtyard gate was open, and there was no one guarding the gate. He raised his head and looked at the three big words "Mulberry Garden" engraved on the top of the courtyard gate. Then, he followed the respectful female disciple and quietly walked in.
As soon as he entered, for some reason, Yue Qianchou suddenly felt that the surrounding temperature dropped a lot. The inside of the wall and the outside seemed to be two different worlds. Walking through the dark courtyard surrounded by trees and green vines, his eyes suddenly opened up. There were all kinds of strange flowers and plants. There were actually many gardens inside, and they were also planted with spirit herbs. In each garden, there were one or two young girls working.
Fortunately, the appearance of the young girls here seemed to be a grade higher than what he saw outside.
A beautiful and dignified woman greeted the two of them with a smile. The female disciple hurriedly bowed and said, "Elder Lan." This made Yue Qianchou also bow.
That Elder Lan smiled and said, "What brings you here?" The female disciple pointed at Yue Qianchou and replied, "This person is a disciple that Elder Fei borrowed from the Alchemy Pavilion. His name is Yue Qianchou. Elder Fei said that he will be sent to Jiu Gu to worship the spirit herb."
"Yue Qianchou? Spirit herb? " Elder Lan was stunned. Her eyes paused on Yue Qianchou and then she frowned and said, "What the hell is Fei Denan doing? Alright, leave him to me. You can go back. "
"Yes." The female disciple obeyed and left. After listening to their conversation, Yue Qianchou only felt uncomfortable and secretly cursed in his heart, "Damn! Since when did I become a thing that can be sent here and there? "
"You come with me." Elder Lan smiled.
"Yes." Yue Qianchou obeyed the order and followed her.
As they passed through several spirit herb gardens, Yue Qianchou thought to himself that the spirit herbs planted here were definitely more precious than those planted outside. He couldn't help but look around, and to his surprise, he discovered that he had seen many of the spirit herbs in the pill recipe jade archive.
He followed the woman to a courtyard. Once he entered the courtyard, he suddenly felt that the temperature had dropped a lot. He saw a well in front of him. When he walked past the well, he felt even more bone-chilling cold. Yue Qianchou shivered from the cold. Although his cultivation level wasn't high, it was not a problem for him to be impervious to heat and cold. He didn't expect this small well to be so powerful. It was as if the temperature of the entire mountaintop was low because of this well. He couldn't help but glance at the well. The water wasn't deep, and he could see it by tilting his head. Strangely, even though the temperature was so low, the well water didn't freeze. It gave the courtyard an even greater sense of mystery.
In the courtyard, a white-haired old woman was holding a young and beautiful girl's hand as she spoke. When Yue Qianchou saw the girl, he was stunned. It was Yan Zixia, whom he had parted ways with not too long ago. Why was she here? He felt strange.
When he got closer, he realized that the old woman's face was full of pockmarks. He couldn't help but think of the Ma Jiugu that Elder Fei had mentioned.
The old woman turned her head and swept a glance at Yue Qianchou. Her calm gaze actually made the latter's heart palpitate. She opened her mouth and spoke in an aged voice, "Little Lan, who did you bring here?"
Yan Zixia was obviously curious as to why Yue Qianchou would be here. The two of them nodded at each other.
