BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2236 - 2236 Duel
She looked like she was 18 or 19, and her appearance was peerlessly pretty. Her red dress and hair flowed with the wind.
Her brows had faint hints of elegance and caused the people who saw her to be unable to forget her and instantly have a feeling of fear and respect.
Such a person had never appeared in Fantasy Divine Palace before.
Seeing the token around her waist, Shu Jing’s eyes suddenly revealed looks of understanding. “You’re Shangguan Yue?”
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Greetings, Eighth Deity.”
Shu Jing silently scrutinized her. She is young and has already broken through to become a legendary warrior—she is capable.
She heard that her talent as a Xuan Master was also extremely outstanding, and it caught the eye of Zhen Bao Pavilion.
Thinking of Zhen Bao Pavilion, displeasure flashed across Shu Jing’s heart.
“What are you doing here?” she lightly asked.
Chu Liuyue instantly smiled. “Eighth Deity, this is the medicinal mountain. Of course, I came here to take herbs.”
Shu Jing paused before saying, “You should know the medicinal mountain’s rules, right?”
“This… Xiao Ba mentioned it to me before, so I naturally know them.”
Hearing this, Shu Jing knitted her brows slightly.
Chu Liuyue’s expression and tone were fine, but for some reason, her words sounded uncomfortable. After all, she did not really like that Xiao Ba either.
“Since you know, it’s easy to do things. If you want to enter the medicinal mountain, you have to use a Senior Physician pill to exchange for the chance. If not—”
“I’ve already prepared it.” Chu Liuyue smiled slightly and interrupted her.
She flicked her wrist, and a jade box flew out. “Eighth Deity, please look at it.”
Shu Jing raised her hand to take it, opened the jade box to look at it, and confirmed that it was a Senior Physician-level pill before finally nodding.
She whipped her sleeves, and the barrier before Chu Liuyue instantly disappeared.
Shu Jing turned around to take a look, and saw that Chu Liuyue seemed to be going for the dragon-taming nuts. She instantly knitted her brows. “Hold on!”
Before Chu Liuyue could pick the dragon-taming nut, she heard this. She paused her actions and looked up. “Eighth Deity, do you have any other instructions?”
Shu Jing’s figure flashed, and she arrived before her. “You want to retrieve the dragon-taming nut?”
“Yes.”
“You can’t.” A layer of arrogance covered Shu Jing’s face. “The dragon-taming nut is a top herb, and average people can’t casually use it.”
Chu Liuyue’s gaze flickered slightly.
“Eighth Deity.” A familiar voice sounded.
Chu Liuyue turned around and saw Liang He rapidly coming over.
He held a pile of herbs in his arms. After taking a rough glance, there were already five or six dragon-taming nuts.
The other herbs were also extremely precious.
It seemed like he had just come from the mountain at the side.
Chu Liuyue turned around.
Liang He accidentally glanced over and noticed her. He paused in his steps and nodded toward Chu Liuyue as an indication, but his expression seemed rather cold.
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows. I didn’t offend Liang He before, right? Could it be because Xiao Ba ignores him all the time? But it doesn’t seem like there’s such a need…
“Eighth Deity, these are the herbs I need approval for this time. Kindly take a look at it.”
Shu Jing glanced at it, and few hints of smiling intent surfaced on her face for once. “You’re preparing to produce the Settling Yuan Pill?”
Liang He nodded. “I indeed can’t hide anything from you. I’ve studied the Settling Yuan Pill for some time now and plan to give it a try. As the formula is complicated, I specifically picked a few more portions of herbs.”
“The Settling Yuan Pill is one of the most complicated Supreme Physician-level pills. Even someone with experience might not be able to guarantee success. You should make so many preparations.” Shu Jing’s attitude toward Liang He was clearly much better than toward Chu Liuyue.
Upon hearing this, Chu Liuyue smiled. “Eighth Deity, speaking of which, it’s a coincidence. I came over to pick the dragon-taming nut because I plan to produce the Settling Yuan Pill.”
Once she said this, Shu Jing and Liang He fell silent in unison as they looked over strangely.
Shu Jing chuckled in her heart, raised her brows, and asked, “Oh? You’re a Supreme Physician?”
“No.” Chu Liuyue honestly said, “I just broke through to become a Senior Physician not long ago.”
Shu Jing’s smiling intent became even more obvious, but her eyes were filled with mockery. She isn’t even a supreme medical physician, yet she dares to say that she also wants to produce a Settling Yuan Pill? How ridiculous.
“Then, you don’t have the right to take away this dragon-taming nut.”
Chu Liuyue raised her tone. “Then, why can Liang He do so?”
Shu Jing glanced at her. “He’s a Supreme Physician. Are you?”
“That means only a Supreme Physician can take away this dragon-taming nut?” asked Chu Liuyue in return.
“Of course.”
Then, Shu Jing planned to directly leave. “You have limited time here. You should quickly find some herbs and leave. If not, you would’ve made a wasted trip here.”
Shu Jing took a few steps, suddenly stopped, and half-turned around. “Oh right, don’t even think of using other methods to take the dragon-taming nut away. The entire medicinal mountain is under my control. I will immediately notice if the leaves rustle. Once I discover that someone is being a thief, the consequences will be extremely severe. Do you understand?”
Chu Liuyue slowly raised her brow in a seemingly smiling manner. This Eighth Deity has such a rude way of speaking…
Seeing that Shu Jing was about to leave, Chu Liuyue suddenly said, “Hold on.”
Shu Jing was rather annoyed. “What else do you want?”
Chu Liuyue curled her lips into a smile. “I really need this dragon-taming nut urgently. Since Liang He also plans to produce a Settling Yuan Pill, why don’t we duel here, and Eighth Deity can be our judge for fairness? If I produce it successfully, I can take the Settling Yuan Pill away. If I fail, I promise I will not take another step into the medicinal mountain ever again. Eighth Deity, what do you think?”
