Chapter 226

"Dr. Li, let me introduce myself first. My name is Xu Xu Weixiong, and I am Xu Fengnian's second elder sister!" After Li Li Lianhua sat down, the woman spoke up!

So it was her!

Hearing the other party's identity, Li Li Lianhua was suddenly enlightened.

This woman had a very strong aura, carrying the demeanor of a powerful career woman, and after entering the Lotus Building, she had actually seized the initiative from start to finish.

But thinking about the fact that the other party was Xu Xu Weixiong, Li Li Lianhua didn't find it strange at all!

This was the woman who made even the father and son, Xu Fengnian and Xu Xiao, feel their legs go weak and dare not return home just by hearing her name!

Moreover, she had originally gone to the Shangyin Academy as a student, but before long, the teachers of various subjects had all lost to her, to the point that she became a lecturer for many subjects at the Shangyin Academy.

It wasn't just her strong temperament and outstanding ability; more importantly, when conversing with her, one realized she wasn't simply an unreasonable person!

Just like Li Li Chungang in the original story, who originally felt that Jiang Ni had been wronged under Xu Xu Weixiong and wanted to stand up for her!

But in reality? With just a few words, even Li Li Chungang was left feeling embarrassed!

"Second Miss Xu, nice to meet you!" With his thoughts racing, regardless of what he was thinking, Li Li Lianhua nodded at Xu Xu Weixiong!

"Nice to meet you? Dr. Li, have you heard of my name?" Hearing what Li Li Lianhua said, Xu Xu Weixiong asked in surprise!

"I have heard of it!" Li Li Lianhua nodded calmly.

"Recently, Dr. Li's reputation in the Jiang Hu has also been very loud; I have heard it like thunder!" Xu Xu Weixiong replied as well!

Without waiting for Li Li Lianhua to react, Xu Xu Weixiong continued: "Looking at the direction of Dr. Li's Lotus Building, you are heading to Beiliang, right?"

The news that her younger brother had spent a sky-high price of 5 million taels to purchase a Soul-Returning Pill had spread throughout the Jiang Hu, so Xu Xu Weixiong naturally knew about it.

"That's right. Second Miss Xu, are you traveling together?" Li Li Lianhua nodded and asked in return!

"Sure!" Xu Xu Weixiong nodded generously, without the slightest bit of coyness.

"Jiang Hu rumors say that Dr. Li is collecting Wangliang Grass everywhere!"

"And, Jiang Hu rumors say that this Wangliang Grass is the main ingredient for refining the Soul-Returning Pill?" Following that, Xu Xu Weixiong asked again!

"That's right!"

Since the Jiang Hu was spreading such rumors and everyone had guessed it, Li Li Lianhua naturally had no intention of denying it!

"Many people in the Jiang Hu are looking for it recently. If it is truly found, is Dr. Li really willing to exchange it for a Soul-Returning Pill?" Xu Xu Weixiong continued to ask.

"I can!" Li Li Lianhua continued to nod!

Indeed, Wangliang Grass was the main ingredient and the hardest to obtain; although the other medicinal herbs were also precious, they could be collected with some effort!

And when refining a batch of Soul-Returning Pills, the yield was generally three to five pills!

As long as someone sent him a stalk of Wangliang Grass, giving away one Soul-Returning Pill really wasn't a big deal!

Wait, that's not right!

After nodding, Li Li Lianhua realized something! Why had it been Xu Xu Weixiong asking him questions all this time, while he was the one answering?

This made it seem like a leader inquiring about a subordinate's progress, and he was reporting his work to the leader?

Li Li Lianhua realized this and felt it was very strange!

So, what was this? Xu Xu Weixiong's aura was truly strong; without realizing it, she had seized the initiative in the rhythm of the conversation, and yet, it didn't feel abrupt at all? It felt like a matter of course?

"Okay, understood!"

Regardless of what Li Li Lianhua was thinking at the moment, after receiving his affirmative answer, Xu Xu Weixiong nodded and added: "Then, I happen to know the whereabouts of the Wangliang Grass now!"

"Ah?"

Hearing this, Li Li Lianhua looked at Xu Xu Weixiong in surprise, his chaotic thoughts vanishing, and he asked directly: "Where is it?"

He had asked so many factions to search for traces of the Wangliang Grass, and there had been no harvest until now, yet Xu Xu Weixiong knew?

"The East Sea, on the seabed!" Xu Xu Weixiong replied!

"The East Sea seabed?" This statement made Li Li Lianhua look at Xu Xu Weixiong in surprise!

Yes, what did it mean for Wangliang Grass to be on the East Sea seabed?

More importantly, if it was on the East Sea seabed, how did she know?

"Ten years ago, the Jin Great Yuan Alliance and the Four Guardians Gate had a decisive battle, and countless people died or were injured in the East Sea!"

"Therefore, there is no shortage of corpses on the seabed!"

"Fishermen entering the sea once saw a stalk of grass actually growing out of a corpse's forehead, and they were so scared that they fell ill for several days after returning to shore!" Xu Xu Weixiong was concise and explained the situation to Li Li Lianhua!

This made Li Li Lianhua's expression strange. Wangliang Grass grew on corpses, and many people had indeed died in the battle against the Jin Great Yuan Alliance in the East Sea ten years ago.

To say that Wangliang Grass would grow there was indeed plausible!

"Then, let's go, let's hurry and find it!"

Since he felt that Xu Xu Weixiong's words had some merit and that it was indeed possible for Wangliang Grass to grow on the East Sea seabed, Li Li Lianhua naturally had no intention of wasting time and would go to the East Sea to search first!

"Going to the East Sea from here is a long journey. If we only use this Lotus Building..." Hearing this, Xu Xu Weixiong sized up the Lotus Building, clearly feeling that its speed was too slow!

Without wasting any more words, Li Li Lianhua wiped his hand across his storage ring.

Just like Doraemon taking something out of his dimensional pocket, Li Li Lianhua took out the Anywhere Door directly!

Immediately after, silently thinking of the East Sea coast, Li Li Lianhua opened the Anywhere Door!

As the Anywhere Door opened, the sound of waves came through, accompanied by the unique salty sea breeze from the coast!

"This, what is this!?" Looking at the scene on the other side of the Anywhere Door, Xu Xu Weixiong stood up abruptly, an expression of disbelief appearing on her face.

Opening the door directly led to the East Sea?

The effect of this Anywhere Door left Xu Xu Weixiong completely dumbfounded!

"Let's go!" Seeing Xu Xu Weixiong's dumbfounded look, Li Li Lianhua smiled slightly, greeted her, and immediately stepped through the Anywhere Door first!

Xu Xu Weixiong took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the shock in her heart, and followed behind Li Li Lianhua, stepping through the Anywhere Door together!

Stepping on the soft beach and looking at the boundless East Sea before her, Xu Xu Weixiong still felt like she was dreaming!

This, they had arrived at the East Sea just like that?

"Dr. Li, that door you just used!" After properly organizing her emotions, Xu Xu Weixiong looked at Li Li Lianhua in shock and said.

The effect of the Anywhere Door had truly left Xu Xu Weixiong deeply shocked!

"It's not important, just a little trick!"

Having no intention of dwelling on this issue, Li Li Lianhua put away the Anywhere Door, roughly identified the direction, and then went to some nearby fishermen.

After spending some silver to borrow a fishing boat, he set sail!

Li Li Lianhua naturally knew the place where the Jin Great Yuan Alliance and the Four Guardians Gate had fought at sea before.

Sitting in the fishing boat and watching it break through the waves without wind, Xu Xu Weixiong still felt a bit dizzy!

Originally, she had rushed to Beiliang intending to organize a group of Beiliang personnel to enter the sea and search for the Wangliang Grass.

Because she only trusted the people of Beiliang, and since it concerned the Wangliang Grass, finding it wasn't the important part; how to protect it was!

If they could find it, wouldn't Beiliang save that sky-high price of 5 million taels of silver?

But she hadn't expected that before even reaching Beiliang, she would encounter the Lotus Building owner on the road, tell him the matter, and in the blink of an eye, he had brought her to the East Sea and set sail directly!

Dizzy, the current Xu Xu Weixiong still felt dizzy.

Just a moment ago she was on her way to Beiliang, and in the blink of an eye, she had arrived at the East Sea?

Also, this small fishing boat had no sails, and she hadn't seen Li Li Lianhua rowing, yet the boat was moving at an absurd speed toward the depths of the East Sea. What kind of method was this?

Not to mention the shocked thoughts of Xu Xu Weixiong beside him.

Using the method of manipulating objects to control the small fishing boat beneath him, after traveling for about half an hour, Li Li Lianhua had arrived at the sea area where the Four Guardians Gate and the Jin Great Yuan Alliance had fought back then!

Xu Xu Weixiong leaped directly into the seawater.

Naturally, her whole body was wet...
