Chapter 367 - 367: Si Fuqing: You Had Enough Fun? It’s My Turn
As soon as the purple sandalwood box was opened, a strikingly clear and refreshing medicinal fragrance wafted through the air.
It wasn’t overpowering, but it stimulated every pore, making one feel relaxed all over.
“Big brother, look!” The Second Elder was almost dancing with excitement.
“Purple Sun Ginseng! It’s Purple Sun Ginseng! My heavens, it’s actually Purple Sun Ginseng!”
“Indeed, it is Purple Sun Ginseng,” acknowledged the Supreme Elder, while appearing calm on the surface, pulled his beard accidentally in excitement. “And its quality is exceptional. Look at these leaves, they’ve turned transparent. ”
The Great Elder, as the head of the elders, usually didn’t concern himself with such mundane assessments.
But Jiang Luying’s presentation of the Purple Sun Ginseng made it a significant event.
When the other villagers waiting for their assessments heard the name of the herb, they were stunned.
They had thought that with Jiang Luying’s Millennium Earth Treasure Flower withered, they would have a chance.
But who would have imagined that Jiang Luying would present an even more precious Purple Sun Ginseng?!
Fang Mingquan was utterly incredulous, exclaiming, “How do you have Purple
Sun Ginseng?!”
Purple Sun Ginseng was even more difficult to acquire than the Millennium Earth Treasure Flower.
It could only be found in Ghost Valley and its peripheral areas.
But even at the edge of Ghost Valley, very few players dared to venture in.
Angering other NPCs might still leave you with a chance to survive.
But provoking the Master of Ghost Valley was tantamount to seeking death. Dying multiple times in the game was one thing, but total mental destruction meant brain death.
Jiang Luying dared to venture into Ghost Valley?!
“Jiang Luying,” the Great Elder took note of his name, his demeanor becoming more amiable. “Did you cultivate this Purple Sun Ginseng, or did you bring it from Ghost Valley?”
Either case would prove that the Miracle Doctor Alliance had a formidable new member.
Someone who could come and go from Ghost Valley unscathed would be a distinguished guest even in the Free State!
“Great Elder, it was like this,” Jiang Luying respectfully began. “Last January, I thought to try my luck in the holographic game. By chance, I found a seed outside Ghost Valley. It just finished growing this morning, and to my surprise, it turned out to be Purple Sun Ginseng.”
The characteristic of Purple Sun Ginseng was that after sufficient growth time, it would sprout and bloom within a single day.
“Good, good, luck is also a part of strength,” the Great Elder nodded repeatedly. “This Purple Sun Ginseng is priced at one billion in our alliance. We plan to send it to the Free State. How do you feel about this?”
Jiang Luying remained composed, “Thank you for all your support, Great
Elder.”
The Second Elder couldn’t understand.
Others would be ecstatic at the mention of the Free State, but Jiang Luying seemed indifferent.
After all, the incredibly magical holographic game “Eternity” was developed in the Free State.
Over the past millennium, as technology advanced and the environment worsened, many rare and precious materials had vanished.
If not for “Eternity,” the Miracle Doctor Alliance would be struggling for medicinal resources.
“I also had a Millennium Earth Treasure Flower to present, but unfortunately, it withered suddenly, ” Jiang Luying sighed. “Luck isn’t always good.”
The Great Elder’s gaze turned sharp, focusing on the pale-faced Fang Mingquan.
Fang Mingquan shivered, almost kneeling on the ground, barely managing to stand his ground.
Even if the Great Elder knew he was responsible, there was no evidence.
The Great Elder handed Jiang Luying a bank card without further addressing
Fang Mingquan, he instructed”Keep this safe. If there’s news from the Free
State, I’ll inform you immediately.”
Jiang Luying bowed deeply again, “Thank you, Great Elder.”
After Jiang Luying’s assessment, the guard called the next participant, “Next, Fang Mingquan.”
Fang Mingquan wiped the sweat from his forehead, forcing a strained smile, “Second Elder, here’s the Earth Mythical Ginseng I grew. Please have a look.” The Great Elder, disinterested in this herb, began to doze off again. The Second Elder casually opened the box and glanced inside, “Pass. Take your things and leave.”
Fang Mingquan, sweating profusely, thanked him, “Thank you, Second Elder.”
Pass was enough to avoid expulsion.
He clenched his fists, casting a dark look at Jiang Luying.
Now, he was completely unable to touch Jiang Luying.
Previously, Jiang Luying was just an inconspicuous member of the Miracle Doctor Alliance.
But with the emergence of Purple Sun Ginseng, the elders would surely pay great attention to Jiang Luying, even providing protection.
If Jiang Luying also received an invitation from the Free State… Fang Mingquan’s expression grew even more sinister..
