Chapter 229: The Strange Encounter in the Volcano, Feng Zhan vs. Long Hao (2)

Leng Ruoxue nodded. She understood what Feng Zhan meant. The higher your level, the more heaven and earth spiritual energy you required. Therefore, various methods that could assist in cultivation would be very important at that time.

“Continue searching!” Leng Ruoxue stored the fire crystal core in the Heaven and Earth Bracelet and handed it to Qing Jue for safekeeping. After some thought, she released Quill.

“Quill, can you see with your X-ray vision in here?” Leng Ruoxue asked.

“Master, heavenly materials and earthly treasures cannot be seen through,” Quill said helplessly. Heavenly materials and earthly treasures had their own spirituality, and only those who were fated could obtain them.

“Oh, take your time then,” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently. In fact, she had already guessed this. Otherwise, Quill would have come out to help long ago.

“Master, we want to help too,” Dazzle said from the bracelet.

“Alright, all of you come out!” Leng Ruoxue let out the other beasts.

The more beasts there were, the more hands they would have. After coming out, they each occupied a spot and searched carefully.

“Master, there’s a flower here,” Rise suddenly called out.

“Where?” Leng Ruoxue came to Rise’s location and looked around. There was nothing except a large rock.

“Under the rock.” Rise lowered his head and motioned Leng Ruoxue to look down.

Leng Ruoxue squatted down and looked at the large rock under Rise. There was indeed a small flower in the gap under the rock, but it was still a small bud. The flower was entirely fiery red, slightly smaller than an adult’s palm, and exuded a faint lotus fragrance.

“Found it!” Leng Ruoxue shouted excitedly.

Feng Zhan immediately came to Leng Ruoxue’s side, glanced at the small fire lotus, and said honestly, “Master, this isn’t a thousand-year-old fire lotus.”

“I know, but it’s better than nothing,” Leng Ruoxue said happily. She had the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, so as long as she could find a fire lotus, even if it was not a thousand years old, she could plant it and make it into a thousand-year-old fire lotus.

“Uh! That’s true, Master. I’ll dig it out,” Feng Zhan volunteered.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue gave her spot to Feng Zhan.

Feng Zhan first moved the rock away, then squatted down and carefully dug out the fire lotus from the ground. He then handed it to Leng Ruoxue.

After receiving the fire lotus, Leng Ruoxue directly sent it into the bracelet and handed it to Qing Jue.

“Let’s go back!” Leng Ruoxue knew that only a single heavenly material and earthly treasure would grow in a place, so there was no need to continue looking.

“Okay.” Feng Zhan nodded, and the few beasts also jumped onto Leng Ruoxue’s arms or shoulders.

Following their original route, Leng Ruoxue, Feng Zhan, and the other beasts left the active volcano and returned to the Phoenix clan’s territory.

In the wooden house…

“Xue’er, you’re back! How was your harvest?” Leng Qingtian asked curiously. He already knew that Freak had not really died, but a thousand-year fire lotus was not easy to find!

“It’s not bad. We found a small one.” Leng Ruoxue was very satisfied. After all, fire lotuses were very difficult to find, so she didn’t expect to find one in one try.

“That’s good.” Leng Qingtian was relieved.

“Yes, Grandpa. I’m a little tired. I’ll go back to my room to rest first,” Leng Ruoxue said.

“Go quickly!” Leng Qingtian hurried his granddaughter upon hearing that she was tired.

The moment Leng Ruoxue returned to her room, the little silver mink she left in the room jumped into her arms.

“Xue’er, Boohoo… How could you abandon me?” the little silver mink complained aggrievedly, tears welling up in his blue eyes.

“You were the one who said you don’t like fire,” Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly. Why is this little mink complaining first!

“But… but you can’t leave me at home!” the little silver mink said gloomily. He meant that Xue’er could put him in the bracelet, but she actually directly left him in the room.

“Oh, I misunderstood. I thought you didn’t want to go!” Leng Ruoxue giggled. Actually, she did it on purpose since this little mink always threatened her with tears.

“You have to compensate me!” the little silver mink said, pushing his luck. He was definitely going to take advantage of Xue’er since she couldn’t do anything to him anyway.

“How?” Leng Ruoxue was speechless. Why is this little mink so similar to Freak? They’re both unwilling to suffer any loss!

“I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll tell you when I think of it,” the little silver mink said slyly.

“Alright!” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly. Then she entered the Heaven and Earth Bracelet with the little mink in her arms.

“Big Sister, I’ve already planted the fire lotus. I also placed the fire crystal core near it to accelerate its growth,” Qing Jue hurriedly reported his labor results to Leng Ruoxue after seeing her enter.

“Qing Jue, you’ve worked hard.” Leng Ruoxue picked up the beautiful and cute toddler. She actually felt a little guilty looking at Qing Jue’s small arms and legs. Is this considered exploiting an underage child?

“Big Sister, you’re letting your imagination run wild again.” Qing Jue, who knew what Leng Ruoxue was thinking, rolled his eyes, his pinkish face full of helplessness. He was an artifact spirit, not an underage child!

“Uh, Qing Jue, when will this fire lotus reach a thousand years?” Leng Ruoxue was embarrassed and quickly changed the topic.

“Big Sister, it should take at least a hundred years, adding on the accelerated time and the fire crystal core!” Qing Jue said after thinking with a frown.

“A hundred years?! That long?” Leng Ruoxue was depressed.

“Big Sister, a hundred years is fast. For cultivators, a hundred years passes by in the blink of an eye,” Qing Jue said nonchalantly. In his opinion, a hundred years was really nothing. For example, his old master could enter seclusion for more than a hundred years at a time.

“Yes, Master. Hundreds of years will pass by every time we sleep,” Rise couldn’t help consoling.

“Big Sister, you just have to cultivate diligently if you want it to grow into a thousand-year fire lotus quickly. If you reach Old Master’s level, not to mention a thousand years, even ten thousand years will pass by in the blink of an eye,” Qing Jue encouraged. He hoped that his big sister could improve her strength quickly so that he could help her even more.
