Chapter 21: Meeting Qian Renxue, and Can't Help but Curse Tang San Again

After the three of them finished eating, Lingxu followed the path where Qian Renxue's carriage had passed by without any rush.

It was just like an ordinary stroll through the streets.

He would go inside to take a look at any shops that caught his interest, and buy anything he felt like having.

Once he confirmed the residence where Qian Renxue was staying, his goal for the day could be considered achieved.

The task was very simple; to put it plainly, it was just to let Qian Renxue know that he had arrived in Heaven Dou City.

Upon returning home, his mother had already finished tidying up the room he was staying in.

Many of the items used were brought from Wuhun City, making it just as cozy as their home in Wuhun City!

At night, Lingxu practiced as he usually did.

By the next morning, he arrived in front of Qian Renxue's residence before the sky had even brightened.

Unfortunately, however, after wandering around the vicinity for a long time, Lingxu did not see Qian Renxue walk out of the First Prince's residence.

Originally, Lingxu thought Qian Renxue would not come out today, but he had heard people say that this First Prince went to Tiandou Huanggong very early every day.

Lingxu had arrived a little past six in the morning, with an hour still left until daybreak.

It was too early; Lingxu remembered how Qian Renxue used to sleep until after eight in the morning and had a habit of lingering in bed; sometimes when he went to the Offering Hall, Qian Renxue would still be sleeping.

He had even performed wake-up services a few times.

As an undercover agent posing as Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue had sacrificed too much.

After hearing this, Lingxu did not leave; he waited on the path that Qian Renxue had to take.

Lingxu waited for several hours, and by evening, the carriage of the First Prince, Qian Renxue, arrived.

In fact, this could be considered "waiting for the hare by the tree" to see Xue'er.

Lingxu did not need to do much, but the position he chose was somewhat deliberate.

As long as Qian Renxue lifted the curtain and could see him, the task would be complete.

The moment the carriage drew near, Lingxu and Qian Renxue both sensed each other.

The distance was about fifty meters or so.

In truth, Qian Renxue was already about to fall asleep inside the carriage.

But the very instant she felt the martial soul resonance, Qian Renxue was wide awake.

It really was Brother Lingxu; those feelings from yesterday were real.

Because of that feeling yesterday, she had barely rested all night.

Having woken up so early in the morning, she was truly exhausted now.

But as long as she felt that connection to Lingxu's martial soul, her heart would beat violently.

"Qian Renxue, is it okay for you to meet Brother Lingxu in this appearance?"

"If Brother Lingxu saw me like this, he certainly wouldn't like it."

"What should I do!"

"Should I go see Brother Lingxu?"

Qian Renxue's heart struggled for quite a while before she finally slowly pulled open the carriage curtain.

Meeting now isn't appropriate, so just taking a look from afar will have to do.

Just as the carriage was directly facing Lingxu, Qian Renxue pulled open the curtain.

Lingxu happened to stand up at this exact moment, and in an instant, their eyes met as if time had stopped.

Because of their martial souls, Qian Renxue felt she could not keep up her Disguise in front of Lingxu.

"Brother Lingxu must have recognized me too," Qian Renxue thought to herself.

She really wanted to stop the carriage immediately and jump into Lingxu's arms.

Unfortunately, she could not; she saw Lingxu smile slightly at her.

Qian Renxue felt a bit nervous and immediately closed the carriage curtain, thinking: "No, I cannot let Brother Lingxu see me as I am now. I'm sorry, Brother Lingxu, knowing that you are here is enough. Please forgive me for not being able to reveal my identity to you for now."

【Ding... Congratulations on successfully appearing before Qian Renxue within one month. Task reward issued.】

【Task reward issued: Herb Compendium of Rare Herbs, Myriad Poison Spirit Soul *1】

Lingxu had obtained the reward, and he had already seen Qian Renxue.

Since Qian Renxue did not want to see him that much right now, he would wait a little longer.

Xue'er, wait until I become strong, and then I will come to find you.

Lingxu turned and left, and soon the connection with Qian Renxue was lost.

Sitting inside the carriage, Qian Renxue had tried her best to control herself, but a tear still could not help but fall from the corner of her eye.

Returning home, Lingxu ate dinner and went back to his room.

Although Ling Bufan and Luo Xingyue felt it was a bit strange, Lingxu did not say anything, so they did not ask.

Lingxu first took out the Herb Compendium of Rare Herbs, which contained 1,165 types of rare herbs from across the world.

Among them, there were 231 types of Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs.

Such a large number of Immortal Grade Medicinal Herb types only appeared in a few instances in the Douluo novel.

Lingxu flipped directly to the pages where he knew the Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well were located.

But he didn't know until he looked; after looking, Lingxu cursed Tang San for being a dog.

It was such a waste of Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs.

Whether it was the gold-gathering jade-container method or the silver-gathering method, they were all the worst techniques.

How to put it? The Herb Compendium of Rare Herbs stated that one should never harvest herbs that way; although one could successfully obtain the Immortal Grade herb, it would lose the most precious essence within it.

In other words, the Immortal Grade herbs Tang San obtained only utilized their most ordinary medicinal properties, while the most refined and core essence was wasted.

Only medicinal herbs over ten thousand years old are Immortal Grade Herbs; how could a few Soul Elders enjoy them?

Even if they did enjoy them, they would only be able to increase their strength by a tiny bit.

If the effects were applied to a Spirit Douluo or even a Title Douluo, Lingxu doubted whether the small increase in soul power that allowed Ning Rongrong to rise from level 31 to level 37 could even allow a Title Douluo to rise from level 91 to level 92.

Even a fool knows this is impossible; it is difficult enough for a Spirit Douluo to rise by a single level, let alone a Title Douluo.

It is simply a waste of heaven's gifts.

What is this?

There is actually a correct method for harvesting Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs!

Lingxu felt as if he had discovered a new world.

The method in the book, combined with soul power, allows one to harvest Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs perfectly without the aid of any tools, while also ensuring that the most essential parts are not lost.

Lingxu naturally trusts the method provided by the system, but it requires extremely precise control of soul power and long-term practice to meet the requirements for harvesting Immortal Grade Herbs.

That method of Tang San's is merely a technique from the Tang Sect; it is the most barbaric way, obtained only after predecessors tried many times.

But how many Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs are there for you to experiment with?

Being able to harvest them is already quite good; how could one truly guarantee their perfect medicinal efficacy?

In short, four words: the Tang Sect is nothing!

After finishing his complaints about the harvesting, Lingxu had to say that the method of consumption also had problems.

Eating them raw directly is fine, but if some other medicinal herbs are added at the same time, the effect can be increased by more than double.

However, the best way is still to refine them into pills, which yields the best results!

Besides this, there are many highly toxic Immortal Grade Herbs that, if used properly, can also achieve miraculous effects.

For example, the Snowy Swan Kiss, when combined with several other medicinal herbs, can turn it into a truly nourishing Immortal Grade medicine.

Tang San only used it to poison Slaughter City.

There are also many highly toxic Immortal Grade Herbs that Tang San used to refine things like the Life-Taking Yama Sticker.

What a waste; he really is a spendthrift.

The Immortal Grade Herbs in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well must absolutely not be left to Tang San.

The more Lingxu read, the angrier he became, while at the same time feeling somewhat excited.

If he goes to obtain the Immortal Grade Medicinal Herbs, the medicinal effects he unleashes will definitely far exceed Tang San's.

Now, the medicinal power of the Immortal Grade Herbs can not only help himself but also help his parents improve; it is truly the best of both worlds!
