Chapter 556: Chapter 547: Blood Flesh Grass

"These items, my Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building should have some in stock! I’ll have someone prepare a list to check later."

After hearing Shi Jinsuai’s words, Shi Feng nodded and said, "Thank you for the trouble!"

"Please wait here!" Shi Jinsuai said to Shi Feng and then stood up, walked out of the private room, and left briskly to find the cultivation resources that Shi Feng needed.

Shi Feng then sat quietly in the private room, waiting for Shi Jinsuai to return, savoring the fragrant tea placed before him.

Tianlan Imperial City! Atop the Imperial Palace!

At this moment, at the peak of the Imperial Palace, there still stood that majestic and extraordinary golden figure, the Emperor Lan Yuan of the Tianlan Empire!

And Lan Yuan’s face was always turned northward, facing the skies that had lost those two formidable beings.

After a while, a vague black shadow gradually appeared on the ground in front of Lan Yuan’s feet. Looking at the shadow, Lan Yuan spoke in a deep voice, "How is it? Those two who fought in my Tianlan Imperial City, who exactly are they? They are so powerful that even I felt a palpitation of force!"

"That woman, named Li Ru, was originally the daughter of a butcher from a small village in the Yunlai Empire. She must have been possessed by an evil being, having rampaged through many countries in the Eastern Domain, wantonly slaughtering living beings, even slaughtering millions of inhabitants of an entire city!"

"That man, named Li Liuxin, also known as the Residual Flower Sword, his original Martial Arts Realm was merely at the Three-star Martial King Realm. As for his origins, your subordinate has not yet ascertained where he comes from. In the Eastern Domain, he has been known for his avaricious and lustful character, slick and smooth-talking. However..." the shadow suddenly stopped speaking at this point.

Seeing the shadow halt mid-sentence, Lan Yuan’s face furrowed in displeasure, his dragon-like visage slightly angered as he said sternly, "Speak! What ’however’?"

The shadow did not directly answer Lan Yuan’s question, but instead asked Lan Yuan, "Does Your Majesty still remember the Battle Demon Hero Statue that our Sacred Ancestor Lann Mo of the Tianlan Empire commanded to be made?"

"Battle Demon Hero Statue?" Hearing the shadow’s question, Lan Yuan’s imperious face frowned even deeper. Lann Mo was the eleventh Emperor of the Tianlan Empire; it had been nearly a thousand years since his time.

"What does this have to do with the ancestor’s Battle Demon Hero Statue?" Lan Yuan demanded once more, his voice stern. It was said that around a thousand years ago, there appeared in the Tianlan Empire an evil demon who brought disaster upon the world and plagued the people.

Lann Mo gathered the world’s powerful beings to crusade against this evil demon, and in the end, the demon was executed. Lann Mo had statues crafted in the likeness of those powerful individuals who had fought alongside him against the demon.

Although a thousand years had passed, those statues were still enshrined in the Battle Demon Hero Hall. However, as time went on, those hero statues gradually began to fade from the memory of the people.

Even Lan Yuan had only entered the Hero Hall as a child, and since then, he had never set foot inside again.

Hearing that Lan Yuan had asked about the Battle Demon Hero Statues in the Divine Palace, the vague shadow finally spoke, "Your Majesty, among the hero statues left by the Sacred Ancestor, there is one that looks exactly like that Li Liuxin!"

"What!" Hearing his subordinate’s words, Lan Yuan was taken aback, and then he shouted angrily, "Are you saying that man is someone who has lived for over a thousand years!"

Someone who has lived from a thousand years ago, how could this be possible, when even the most distinguished Martial Emperor strong beings only managed to live for three hundred years at most!

A Human Clan member lived for over a thousand years; this is indeed unheard of! Upon hearing this, Lann Yuan naturally couldn’t believe it.

Sensing Lann Yuan’s rage, the shadow hastily spoke up again to explain, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger. Your subordinate is simply reporting truthfully! Regarding this Li Liuxin, the information obtained is only this much. And he does indeed look exactly like the hero statue in the Battle Demon Hall!"

Afterward, Lann Yuan’s fury gradually subsided. He knew that this shadow was absolutely loyal and would do everything to the utmost, and was only honestly reporting to him.

As for the claim that Li Liuxin was a character from a thousand years ago, Lann Yuan naturally wouldn’t believe it. It must be a coincidence that they looked the same.

Then, Lann Yuan spoke again, his tone much gentler, to the shadow, "Keep a close watch on the movements of those two people. Now is a time of many concerns; we absolutely cannot have any more accidents!"

"Your subordinate understands! Your subordinate will take his leave!" The shadow responded, then the vague shadow in front of Lann Yuan’s feet flashed and disappeared.

After the shadow left, Lann Yuan’s gaze still clung to the palace below, as if seeing through the massive structure to its base, he muttered in a low voice, "I have already felt that the suppressing force is becoming ever more unstable! Alas..."

Finally, a slightly helpless sigh echoed through the air.

..

In the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building of Tianlan Imperial City,

After Shi Jinsuai left the elegant private room where Shi Feng was located, it wasn’t long before he returned, sitting back down in front of Shi Feng.

Immediately after, Shi Jinsuai took out three white Jade Bottles and a Jade Box from his Storage Ring, placing them on the table before Shi Feng.

Pointing at the items on the table, Shi Jinsuai said to Shi Feng, "Brother Shi, these three Jade Bottles and this Jade Box contain the most prized possessions of the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building in the Tianlan Empire!

I originally thought of using these items myself, but for your grand plan of wooing Princess Linglong, the number one beauty of the Eastern Domain, and taking her home, I, your brother, am willing to painfully part with them!"

Afterward, Shi Jinsuai pointed at the three Jade Bottles and the Jade Box, introducing them to Shi Feng, "Inside these three Jade Bottles are three Eighth Grade Saint-Level Pills, the Saint Origin Pills! And in this Jade Box, lies Eighth Grade Saint-level Blood Flesh Grass!"

Saint Origin Pills! Previously, when Shi Feng slew Shenn Hui City’s City Lord Shenn Aoxin, the spoils he claimed were precisely these Saint Origin Pills. And when Shi Feng stepped into the Six-star Martial Venerate Realm from the Five-star Martial Venerate Realm, it was by swallowing one of those Saint Origin Pills and absorbing the vast and pure Primordial Power within.

Three Saint Origin Pills, Eighth Grade Saint-Level Pills, on the Tianheng Continent today, the highest grade Alchemy Master is only at Eighth Grade Saint level; these Saint Origin Pills could be described as priceless, as they were extremely valuable and hard to find.

Eighth Grade Saint-level Blood Flesh Grass, although it was just a single sprig of Eighth Grade Spiritual Medicine, its value due to rarity could be said to be no less than that of the Saint Origin Pills! It was rumored that Blood Flesh Grass, when it sprouts, must be watered every day with the blood of Saint Grade living beings and fertilized with their flesh. After ten years, it could grow to maturity! Its value is evident.

Unexpectedly, Shi Jinsuai had managed to acquire such treasures!

(Indeed very sleepy! But since I promised an extra Chapter for the red flame, I will naturally update! Now going to wash my face! Will continue writing soon! There is one more Chapter, probably around 5 a.m.)
