The Extraordinary Way of Using the Space

After she had finished the first cauldron breath treatment for her mother, Ye Lingyue finally returned to her room at ease.

She sat down and crossed her legs to absorb some Bright Sun Ginseng medicinal effect the Qian cauldron had and regained some of her elementary force.

Ye Lingyue also realized that apart from her cultivation breaking through two levels straight after she had absorbed the Bright Sun Ginseng the first time, the medicinal effect grew weaker when she absorbed more of it after. However, the remaining effect of the Bright Sun Ginseng was probably enough to support her to break through to the ninth level of body tempering.

With a call in her mind, she entered Hongmeng Sanctuary.

It had barely been a few days since she came, but Hongmeng Sanctuary had changed once more.

The green-wood fruits smelled enticing hanging on the green-wood fruit trees, and at the fields, various plants and fruits that Ye Lingyue planted before were all growing healthily.

Ye Lingyue casually plucked a peach and took a bite. As she chewed, she realized that the peach tasted a lot juicier and more refreshing compared to those bought outside.

What was more amazing was that there was even a hint of elementary force in the peaches. It seemed that with Hongmeng Sanctuary's transformation, the fruits also became spiritual fruits. If people ate these spiritual fruits often, it would be beneficial for them whether it was for their body or their cultivation.

However, Hongmeng Sanctuary still had a limited space, so the number of spiritual herbs and fruits she could plant were also limited.

At this thought, Ye Lingyue suddenly thought that if normal fruits could mutate in Hongmeng Sanctuary, what would happen if she kept living objects in Hongmeng Sanctuary? Like Da Huang, for example.

Thinking of the mischievous Squeaky, Ye Lingyue immediately left Hongmeng Sanctuary and then returned with Da Huang in tow.

Entering an unknown environment made Da Huang a little uneasy. However, it immediately realized that the elementary force in Hongmeng Sanctuary was extremely abundant. Elated, it happily ran about the place.

"Squeak!" Seeing Da Huang running about its territory messily, Squeaky instantly jumped out and shouted at Da Huang.

This was a hilarious sight for Ye Lingyue. Ever since they met the golden-masked man, Squeaky had been quiet for a while. However, suddenly, it seemed to return to normal.

Squeaky and Da Huang running around Hongmeng Sanctuary made Ye Lingyue feel a sense of unexplainable comfort.

After watching the two play together for a while, Ye Lingyue finally remembered that it was time to bring some green-wood fruits to the medicinal shop.

After plucking some green-wood fruits, Ye Lingyue plucked some fresh fruits and vegetables as well and passed them to Aunt Liu. She then headed to the medicinal shop.

As per usual, Ye Lingyue disguised herself before she entered the medicinal shop. When the manager saw her, he welcomed her passionately once more.

After she had passed the manager the green-wood fruits, Ye Lingyue asked about the fifth-grade pill once more. Although she had the cauldron breath, her mother would recover a lot sooner with the pill.

However, it was a pity that the manager still could not find out anything about a fifth-grade pill.

"Manager, where is the frozen grass I wanted?" Just as Ye Lingyue was chatting with the manager, an arrogant voice interrupted the two's conversation.

Two people walked into the store.

When she heard the voices, Ye Lingyue hurriedly turned around and acted like she was looking at other herbs, while the manager hurriedly apologized and moved to serve them.

The people who entered the medicinal store were Song Guangyi, whom Ye Lingyue had seen before, as well as Master Lian, whom she had seen once during the birthday banquet.

Ye Lingyue still didn't know Master Lian's identity. Song Guangyi, on the other hand, was the Song family's eldest young master. With how strong the Song family was in Autumn Maple town, everyone knew him well. What was he doing in the medicinal store?

"Song Eldest Young Master, Master Lian. We have prepared the frozen grass for you. Would you want to take them now or would like me to send them to the Song estate?" asked the manager politely.

Frozen grass?

Ye Lingyue could remember that Immortal Hongmen had recorded that type of grass in the encyclopedias he had left.

The herbs on the land all had their characteristics and elements they belonged to. The Bright Sun Ginseng belonged to fire and must grow in an extremely hot environment.

And frozen grass was a water type, a first-level spirit herb.

This type of spirit herb can help reduce heat. Once planted in the courtyard or indoors during Summer, water would congregate and cool down the surrounding.

That was why countless rich families would plant frozen grass in their yards during summer.

However, it was still spring. The weather wasn't too hot yet. Besides, why would Song Guangyi need to come and buy mere frozen grass himself?

There must be something wrong. Ye Lingyue thought quietly as she listened to the conversation.

"Send a thousand frozen grass to the Song estate. Remember to not leak this out as well." After Song Guangyi paid, he was about to leave with Master Lian.

"Wait a moment." Just as Ye Lingyue thought the two would leave, Master Lian suddenly turned around and approached Ye Lingyue.

Ye Lingyue's heart tightened. Was her identity exposed? Panic filled her eyes. Even the flying dagger she hid was preparing to fly out.

"These green-wood fruits are pretty good. I want all of them. Remember to send them to the Song family together with the frozen grass," Master Lian blurted as he pointed at the batch of fresh green-wood fruits Ye Lingyue had sent over.

Master Lian was training to become an alchemist, so he could easily tell that the quality of those green-wood fruits was different. One might not be able to find such excellent quality green-wood fruits even in the county city.

Ye Lingyue's heart eased a little. It seemed like he only saw her green-wood fruits.

The manager's expression was dark and sorrowful. However, he couldn't reject the request either and had no choice but to send that batch of green-wood fruits to the Song estate along with the frozen grass.

Once Song Guangyi and Master Lian had left, the manager heaved a lengthy sigh.

"Manager, you don't have to worry about the green-wood fruit. I can give you another batch in two days. Who was that person beside Song Eldest Young Master, though? And why were you so polite to them?" Ye Lingyue's input made the manager happy. If they didn't have any green-wood fruits, their stock of alcohol ointment would run out again.

"Miss, you might not know, but that Master Lian is someone from the county city's Alchemist Association. He is not someone that us nobodies could easily offend." After they had closed several deals between them, the manager already trusted Ye Lingyue quite a bit. Hence, it was easy for him to tell her about the rough situation between the Alchemist Association and Master Lian.

After the manager finished talking, Ye Lingyue finally knew that this Alchemist Association was rather capable.

It was the only force comparable to the Great Xia military. The positions of the alchemists of that association were even greater than the Great Xia officials. However, the selection of alchemists was very strict. Looking at Autumn Maple town, there hadn't been an alchemist in the last few decades.

"Miss, if you're interested, you should get the chance to visit the county city. There is a branch of the Alchemist Association there and they sell herbs, pills, and weapons. It is a much stronger place as compared to a small place like ours." After the manager finished talking, Ye Lingyue nodded and finally left the store.

By then, the Song family horse carriage had left long ago. Thinking about what the manager said, Ye Lingyue walked back to the Ye estate in deep thought.
