Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Spiritual Medicine Seeds!

"I’m asking you, where did this bracelet come from?"

Lin Fan asked somewhat excitedly.

The reason Lin Fan was so excited was because this string of bracelet was identical to the seeds of a type of Spiritual Medicine!

Within the Ancient Jade left to him by his father, there weren’t just Cultivation Methods and Alchemy Techniques, but also Medical Skills that could astonish the whole world; one of the medical books contained extensive knowledge about Spiritual Medicines.

However, Lin Fan had privately compared them with the Medicinal Materials on Earth and had not found any of the Spiritual Medicines mentioned in the medical book on Earth!

But today, on Shangguan Mingyue’s wrist, he found the seeds of a Spiritual Medicine; how could Lin Fan not be excited?

"The bracelet?"

Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, an inexplicable hint of disappointment rose in Shangguan Mingyue’s heart.

She had thought...

"Yes, tell me quickly, where did you get it from?" Lin Fan, unconsciously using a bit more force, insisted.

"Ah! You’re hurting me!"

Shangguan Mingyue was already an Inner Strength Martial Artist, but under Lin Fan’s power, she also felt a pang of pain.

"Grandmaster Lin!"

Shangguan Tianming, standing on the side, hurriedly reminded.

"Sorry! I got too excited."

Lin Fan also realized that something was amiss, let go of Shangguan Mingyue’s wrist, and with a light swipe of his finger, he directly pulled off the string of bracelet, casually plucked a seed, and sniffed it near his nose.

"Sigh."

After doing all this, Lin Fan sighed lightly.

"It’s a pity."

The Spiritual Energy within these seeds had already dissipated completely; they were useless now. Even if planted now, they wouldn’t be able to sprout and grow into Spiritual Medicines; they were completely ruined.

"What happened? Grandmaster Lin, what’s such a pity?" Shangguan Tianming asked with a puzzled look.

"It’s nothing. Where did you get this thing from?" Lin Fan shook his head, his gaze intensifying as he looked at Shangguan Mingyue.

"Why should I tell you?" Shangguan Mingyue glared at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan frowned!

Shangguan Tianming said sternly, "Mingyue, tell Grandmaster Lin quickly!"

"Dad! Why are you siding with an outsider!" Shangguan Mingyue stamped her foot.

"Hmph! Speak!"

Shangguan Tianming put on a serious face, showing his authority. Seeing Lin Fan’s reaction, this thing seemed extremely important to him. If they told Lin Fan about the whereabouts of this thing, perhaps they could use this opportunity to build a good relationship with Lin Fan. This was an opportunity not to be missed!

Though Shangguan Mingyue was very reluctant, she didn’t dare to defy her father.

"It belongs to a friend of mine. I thought it smelled nice and felt good to the touch, so I asked for some and made it into a bracelet," Shangguan Mingyue explained nonchalantly.

"Whose thing is it?" Lin Fan continued to inquire.

"Why should I tell you?"

"Mingyue!" Shangguan Tianming chastised sharply.

"Alright, alright! It belongs to Ruyan. As for where exactly she got it from, I don’t know. If you really want to find out, go ask her yourself!" Shangguan Mingyue confessed honestly. If Lin Fan were the one asking, with her personality, she would not have revealed the truth.

But with Shangguan Tianming there, Shangguan Mingyue had no choice.

"Who’s Ruyan?" Lin Fan frowned again.

"Gai Ruoyan, of the Gu Family from Jinling. Her ancestors were from a prestigious clan in Jinling, and although now a bit declined, they are still one of the most influential families in Jinling. They currently run an antiques business and an auction house, collecting various precious Chinese herbal medicines around the world, and have close dealings with overseas Chinese," Shangguan Tianming explained slowly.

As one of the heads of the Dragon Group, he was very familiar with such information.

A thought stirred in Lin Fan’s heart.

If the Gu Family is involved in the business of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, they might truly know where these seeds come from.

At this thought, Lin Fan’s heart surged with excitement. If he could get the seeds of this herb, he would be able to establish a medicine field and plant them.

Once they took root and sprouted, the spiritual medicine matured, he might be able to produce real elixirs.

The elixirs concocted by Earth’s alchemists could only be considered ’fake pills’.

In the records within Ancient Jade, a single immortal elixir could extend a person’s life by a hundred years.

On Earth, an elixir that could extend life by ten years would cause people to go crazy at the auction, fighting tooth and nail over it. If there were an elixir that extended life by a hundred years, one could hardly imagine what would happen!

"Take me to Jinling, I want to see this Gai Ruoyan!"

Lin Fan spoke, his tone brooking no doubt.

"Alright, when do we leave?"

Shangguan Tianming didn’t get angry. Instead, he cheerfully agreed.

Once this matter was over, he would bring up Lin Fan joining the Dragon Group. Since Lin Fan would owe him a favor, it was likely that he would have no reason to refuse anymore.

"We leave now."

...

Following Shangguan Tianming and his daughter downstairs, Lin Fan was just about to get in the car to head for Jinling when suddenly Shangguan Tianming’s phone rang.

"Hello!"

"Yes, it’s me!"

"What... okay, I got it, I’ll be right back!"

Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, Shangguan Tianming’s expression changed slightly before he hung up the phone solemnly.

"Mingyue, you take Grandmaster Lin to the Gu Family in Jinling. There’s an important matter within the Dragon Group, I need to head back first."

"Dad? You want me to take him there by myself?" Shangguan Mingyue’s eyes went wide with disbelief.

"This is an order!"

Shangguan Tianming’s expression was very serious. Without caring about Shangguan Mingyue’s reaction, he turned to Lin Fan and said, "I apologize, Grandmaster Lin, but I need to return to the Dragon Group for some urgent business. My daughter will take you to the Gu Family in Jinling!"

"Okay."

Lin Fan nodded without any fuss and directly got into the car, taking his place in the back seat.

Shangguan Tianming whispered a few instructions to Shangguan Mingyue, then hurriedly left.

After getting into the car, Shangguan Mingyue coldly looked at Lin Fan and warned:

"Let me tell you, my friend is no ordinary person. She’s beautiful and knowledgeable, with admirers in Jinling City queuing all the way to Tianhai City. When you meet her, you can only ask about the origins of the bracelet. If you dare to harbor any other intentions towards her, I will never forgive you!"

Lin Fan’s expression was calm, as serene as an ancient well, quietly sitting there with his eyes slightly closed, ignoring Shangguan Mingyue’s warning.

"You!"

Annoyed, Shangguan Mingyue fiercely stepped on the gas, accelerating towards Jinling City.

...

Three hours later, Lin Fan and Shangguan Mingyue arrived in Jinling City and took out a phone to make a call.

"Hello, Ruyan, where are you?"

"Oh? You busy person, how come you have time to call me?" A soft and sweet voice came from the other end of the line.

Shangguan Mingyue spoke with slight irritation, "Don’t mention it. I’m in Jinling now, I’ll tell you when I see you, just tell me where you are, I’ll come find you."

"I’m at the Gu Family’s auction house, there’s a grand auction tonight. Come over here, I’ll have someone meet you at the door," Gai Ruoyan said with a laugh.

"Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Mingyue turned to look and saw that Lin Fan was still with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.

’I’ll endure it! I’ll endure it! I’ll endure it! Here I am driving, and you’re snoring away. If it weren’t for the task my father gave me, I would’ve punched you by now!’
