(Senior Sister, please take him away)
The Minor Yang Rejuvenating Pill was indeed a healing medicine. When its efficacy was exhausted, Chen Zong's heavy injuries had recovered by eighty percent. The remaining twenty percent was nothing to worry about because with Chen Zong's strong self-healing ability, it wouldn't take long for him to fully recover.
He was even more grateful to Zuo Shanmei and couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
In terms of appearance, Zuo Shanmei couldn't be considered stunning, but she was still a beauty. She gave people the feeling of a cold plum tree on a snowy mountain, aloof from the world.
Her temperament was very unique. At first glance, she left a deep impression in people's hearts. There was also a faint, undetectable fragrance on her body. It was also very unique, but no one knew where it came from.
Noticing Chen Zong's gaze, Zuo Shanmei seemed to be a little uncomfortable and moved her body slightly.
"Senior Sister, my injuries have recovered." Realizing that it was impolite to look at her like this, Chen Zong withdrew his gaze and said.
"Good. Junior Brother, do you have anything else?" Zuo Shanmei was very direct.
"Not at the moment." Chen Zong was also puzzled, but he still answered.
"Come with me to the Spirit Medicine Valley." Zuo Shanmei said, "There are a lot of precious herbs in the Spirit Medicine Valley. If you are lucky, you can find some that are useful for your cultivation and improve your strength."
"Okay." Chen Zong didn't hesitate at all.
It seemed that he could go anywhere as long as it was beneficial to him. Going to the Spirit Medicine Valley to find herbs was also beneficial to him.
"The Four Great Sect and Tian Jiang Prefecture have an agreement. The conflicts between the disciples will be resolved by the disciples. If other means are used, it will be against the rules." Zuo Shanmei said.
Chen Zong nodded. He already knew this.
Not only Tian Jiang Prefecture had such a rule, but the other Prefectures also had such a rule. In fact, it was the rule in the entire Longtu Dynasty.
After all, it was normal for the younger generation to compete with each other in the same realm. However, if they crossed the boundary, it was a different story.
For example, if a pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator was to deal with an ordinary True Martial Realm cultivator, the result would be the death of the ordinary True Martial Realm cultivator.
Actually, that wasn't the main point. The main point was that he was a genius.
Every genius was valued by every force, because they were the foundation of a force's strength and rise. In the early days, there had been many practices of assassinating geniuses in order to attack a force. This had caused the entire world of martial artists to fall into chaos. Because of this, many forces had declined. Over time, this had affected the overall level of martial arts.
As a result, the various major forces worked together to come up with a genius protection mechanism. It directly stipulated that no matter who it was, no one was allowed to use forces that exceeded their boundaries to deal with the geniuses of other forces. Whoever violated this rule would be condemned by the other forces. In serious cases, the other forces would even join forces to suppress the offender.
Everyone abided by this protective mechanism. After a long time, the level of martial arts gradually improved. After all, geniuses were more outstanding than ordinary warriors. Ordinary warriors could only follow their predecessors, but geniuses could surpass their predecessors and push their martial arts further.
In addition to the protection mechanism, the other reason was the pride in the hearts of geniuses. They would not allow themselves to deal with someone who was weaker than them.
For example, Chen Zong had defeated and almost killed Gu Yaoyang, but Gu Zhi Yang did not have the slightest intention to deal with Chen Zong. Because he was one of the Five Great Prodigies, he had his own pride. His opponents could only be at the level of the Five Great Prodigies, or even stronger.
For example, Long Shaojun would personally hunt down Chen Zong because Chen Zong had killed several of his subordinates. Otherwise, he would not have done it himself.
Of course, different geniuses had different degrees of pride.
Chen Zong understood that Long Shaojun would not let him go. If there was even the slightest chance, Long Shaojun would kill him. Similarly, Chen Zong would not let Long Shaojun go. He would definitely take revenge for today's grievances in the future.
Zuo Shan Mei's speed was much faster than Chen Zong, but in order to take care of Chen Zong, she did not go at full speed, allowing Chen Zong to keep up.
The Spirit Potion Valley was a very famous valley in Tian Jiang Prefecture. It had an excellent environment and was very unique. In the early days, there were many spirit herbs, which attracted people from various forces to crazily search for them. Because of this, there were many wars, and blood flowed like rivers. It also caused a lot of damage to the Spirit Potion Valley.
The consequences were very serious. The value of the Spirit Potion Valley had dropped many times. It was not even one-tenth of its original value.
Now, the Spirit Potion Valley had become a training ground. The disciples of various forces and even some rogue cultivators would enter to search for spirit herbs. There were many precious herbs, but if they were lucky enough to find spirit herbs, they would be rich.
Corresponding to cultivators, spirit herbs were above precious herbs. They were valuable to Transcendents, so they were called spirit herbs.
As for pseudo spirit herbs, they corresponded to pseudo Transcendents.
A dense aura filled the air, making the Spirit Potion Valley feel like it was in a dream. Taking a breath, a cool and refreshing aura spread all over the body, making one feel comfortable. The World Energy here was quite rich and pure.
Chen Zong had already seen many True Martial Realm cultivators entering the valley. They all came here to try their luck. If they could find pseudo spirit herbs, they would be rich. As for spirit herbs, they didn't dare to think about it.
"Let's go, Junior Brother," Zuo Shan Mei said. The two of them stepped into the Spirit Potion Valley.
Not long after, Chen Zong saw a few stalks of elixirs. Unfortunately, they were very common elixirs that were useful for early stage Jin Training Realm martial artists. Zuo Shanmei directly ignored them. Chen Zong also ignored them. At his current level, his vision was much broader. Some of the things that he urgently needed in the past were gradually unable to keep up with his pace.
Along the way, Chen Zong couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The Spirit Potion Valley was indeed worthy of being called the Spirit Potion Valley. Let's not talk about whether or not there were any Spirit Potions left. Just the amount of Spirit Potion Valley alone was not small. Although they weren't everywhere, if one had the heart, they could easily find some.
However, most of them were useful for Qi Refining Realm cultivators. They were not useful for True Martial Realm cultivators.
As they went deeper into the Spirit Potion Valley, Chen Zong and Zuo Shan Mei met more and more True Martial Realm cultivators. Some people saw Zuo Shan Mei from afar. At first, they were startled, and then they were shocked. They didn't dare to come close. Obviously, they recognized Zuo Shan Mei.
Fragrance Sword Zuo Shan Mei. This name was very famous in Tianjiang Prefecture.
As for Chen Zong, he had just become famous after defeating Gu Yaoyang. However, it was only a short time. Many people knew his name, but not many knew his face.
"Shan Mei, you are also here. Why didn't you tell me in advance?" A clear voice sounded. Three people strode towards them. The one who spoke was the leader. He was wearing a cyan robe. In his left hand was a long sword with a scabbard engraved with flower patterns. There was a smile on his handsome face. His eyes fell on Zuo Shan Mei's face with passion. He called her affectionately.
"Call me Zuo Shan Mei." Zuo Shan Mei looked at him with a cold expression. The coldness in her eyes seemed to be able to freeze the air.
However, the young man's expression didn't change. He was still smiling. It was obvious that he was used to it.
"Shan Mei, our families have been friends for generations. We are childhood sweethearts. There is no need to be so distant." The young man was still smiling.
"My name is Zuo Shan Mei." Zuo Shan Mei said again. Her eyes became colder and colder. The young man's eyelids twitched involuntarily. He didn't look as calm as before, but he was furious on the inside.
"Okay, okay, okay. Zuo Shan Mei, I will call you Zuo Shan Mei." The young man smiled awkwardly. However, the anger on the inside was even stronger. He glanced at Chen Zong and said, "Shan Mei … Zuo Shan Mei, may I know who this is?"
"It's none of your business." Zuo Shan Mei's answer made the young man's face freeze.
Chen Zong didn't say anything. It was obvious that this young man and Senior Sister Zuo Shan Mei knew each other. Perhaps there was something between them that he couldn't interfere with.
"How should I address you?" The young man looked at Chen Zong.
"Chen Zong." Chen Zong replied calmly.
"Chen Zong!" The three people including the young man were surprised. "You are Chen Zong, the current Sword Master of the Zongzheng Sword School!"
"That's me." Chen Zong's answer made the three people even more surprised. A trace of anger flashed in the young man's eyes.
"Oh, you are Zuo Shan Mei's Junior Brother. I am Li Mingyi, a core disciple of the Tianshui Sect." Li Mingyi smiled and introduced himself. "It is fate that brought us together. Why don't we work together? We heard that there is a fake spiritual medicine growing in the Spirit Potion Valley. If we work together, we will be more competitive."
"No need." Before Chen Zong could answer, Zuo Shan Mei had already refused. Chen Zong didn't have any objection.
After all, Chen Zong didn't know what kind of person Li Mingyi was. Moreover, it was obvious that Senior Sister Zuo Shan Mei didn't like him. Of course, he would stand on Senior Sister Zuo's side.
After that, Zuo Shan Mei continued walking, ignoring Li Mingyi and the other two people. Li Mingyi opened his mouth but didn't say anything. His eyes turned cold.
Zuo Shan Mei's actions were undoubtedly not giving him any face.
However, he couldn't defeat Zuo Shan Mei.
Zuo Shan Mei was a genius in the second group. She was one of the top geniuses. She could easily reach the first group. Although Li Mingyi was also a genius, there was a big gap between them. They were both at Lv 7 of the True Martial Realm, but he couldn't get into the second group. Li Mingyi, whose cultivation had surpassed Lv 6 of the True Martial Realm, was naturally excluded from the third group.
It didn't mean that one would be qualified to be a genius in a group if they reached a certain cultivation level within a certain age. It also required strength.
After all, some people were good at cultivation and had a set of skills, but they weren't necessarily strong in battle.
"Zuo Shan Mei, one day I'll make you kneel in front of me and beg for my favor." Li Mingyi said to himself. He had been coveting Zuo Shan Mei for a long time and wanted to get close to her every time. Unfortunately, Zuo Shan Mei's attitude towards him was getting worse and worse, which made his thoughts deviate from reality.
"Although that guy can't be listed as a genius in a group, his strength shouldn't be underestimated. An ordinary Lv 7 of the True Martial Realm is no match for him." Zuo Shan Mei suddenly said.
"I'll pay attention." Chen Zong knew that Zuo Shan Mei was talking to him, so he responded.
Zuo Shan Mei didn't deliberately emphasize it. Firstly, it was her personality. Secondly, she believed that with Chen Zong's talent, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed Li Mingyi. Moreover, Chen Zong and Li Mingyi didn't have any conflicts. Moreover, with Chen Zong's status, Li Mingyi didn't necessarily have the guts to do that.
