Chapter 50: Saving Someone

“Don’t even think about it!” Lu Xiaoyuan snorted softly.

The little plant spirit was her source of happiness. She couldn’t bear to sell it.

Elder Lu placed Qin Yi on the ground lightly when he heard this. Then, he kneeled in front of Lu Xiaoyuan with a thud.

Lu Xiaoyuan got a fright.

“Young miss, I beg you. Sell me the spirit herb. My young master’s life is in grave danger. Even if we rush back to the nearest town on a horse now, it will be too late!”

Gold Xiao’er glanced at Qin Yi.

By scanning Qin Yi’s body with his thoughts, he could sense that Qin Yi’s life was hanging on a thread.

Actually, Gold Xiao’er was able to heal these injuries with a wave of his hand, but the boss of the team was Lu Xiaoyuan; he could only help if she agreed.

“His life is indeed in danger, but why should I sell the spirit herb to you? It is not like we are close friends.” Lu Xiaoyuan was furious.

She would never sell the little plant spirit.

“Young miss, I beg you!” Elder Lu kneeled on the ground and kept kowtowing.

He knocked his head on the broken stones but he couldn’t care less about the pain. He would continue kowtowing until the young miss would agree to save his young master.

“You…” He was so stubborn that Lu Xiaoyuan didn’t know what to say.

Zhou Ye looked at Elder Lu’s desperation. Although he took pity on him, he would also never agree to let Lu Xiaoyuan sell him.

His life was also very important, okay?

Elder Lu noticed that his pleading wasn’t working. Suddenly, he remembered that Lu Xiaoyuan and her friends weren’t cultivators so he started to have wandering thoughts.

But, he glanced at Qin Yi, who was lying beside him, and suppressed those devilish thoughts.

Forcefully stealing for their own sake wasn’t what they should do.

If Qin Yi woke up and knew what he did, he would be unhappy.

But, compared to Qin Yi being unhappy, he cared more about Qin Yi’s life.

“Young miss, how about this—you sell me this spirit herb to treat my young master’s injury and you will return to the Imperial City with us, and when we reach our residence, we can offer you more spirit herbs!” Elder Lu thought for a moment before saying.

“More spirit herbs?” Lu Xiaoyuan looked at him but she wasn’t moved.

She had a lot of spirit herbs. The number of ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs in her stash was enough to pile into a mountain. Why would she be desperate for a few more spirit herbs?

“It’s impossible to buy my little plant spirit.” Lu Xiaoyuan’s expression was cold.

“Little plant spirit…” Elder Lu muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he saw a string of hope. He looked at Lu Xiaoyuan and said, “Young miss, I would like to make a deal with the plant spirit. What do you think?”

“A deal? Impossible!” Lu Xiaoyuan tilted her head and looked at him grumpily.

She felt that this old man would definitely try to fool her little plant spirit into treating Qin Yi’s wound.

Zhou Ye pouted.

What kind of deal could be done?

In the end, they still wanted to eat him.

I will not give you this chance today.

Elder Lu’s hopeful gaze landed on Zhou Ye. Then, he said in a soft voice, “My plant spirit friend, I know that your cultivation state and your intellect isn’t low. Why don’t we have a deal?”

“You will use one of your leaves to save our young master’s life and then you will return to our residence with me. At that time, I will provide you with more spirit herbs to help you with your cultivation!”

Zhou Ye’s expression was filled with contempt when he heard this.

The pugilistic world was a dangerous place. Who knows if this old man was fooling him.

“I swear on my Dao Heart that everything I said is true!”

When he said this, Lu Xiaoyuan raised her eyebrows.

“Swearing on your Dao Heart?”

“Yes, if you can save my young master’s life, giving you ten times or a hundred times more spirit herbs is nothing!” Elder Lu’s gaze was firm.

He looked like a sincere person.

Zhou Ye was moved when he heard a hundred times more spirit herbs.

He thought about it carefully and thought, “Lu Xiaoyuan would not let me suffer a loss.”

“Crack!”

Zhou Ye broke his leaf himself.

After the leaf broke, it gently floated towards the pale and unconscious Qin Yi.

“Little plant spirit, you…” Lu Xiaoyuan glared at Zhou Ye.

“I can cure him easily. So why did you need to cut your leaf? Now, I will need to heal you. That’s so troublesome!” Lu Xiaoyuan muttered.

Zhou Ye felt fortunate when he heard this.

It was lucky that he acted in time.

If Lu Xiaoyuan acted, he wouldn’t have those spirit herbs to aid his cultivation.

The leaf floated towards Qin Yi’s lips. Then, a ray of green light forced open Qin Yi’s closed mouth and the piece of leaf fell into his mouth.

When the leaf entered Qin Yi’s mouth, it disappeared.

Immediately after, the injuries on Qin Yi’s body started healing at a speed obvious to the naked eye. His pale face started turning into a healthy shade of pink.

However, he was still unconscious.

This was normal.

After all, it was just a leaf from Zhou Ye.

When Elder Lu was about to thank Zhou Ye, something happened.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”

The sound of arrows cutting through the air was heard as they flew towards Qin Yi and Elder Lu from the forest.

Even Lu Xiaoyuan, who was standing at the side, got implicated.

It was obvious that the other party was committed to kill all of them.

How ruthless.

“Hmph, imbecile.” Gold Xiao’er’s expression turned dark. He activated the energy in his demon pearl, preparing to slap those people to death.

“Slash!”

“Slap, slap…”

Elder Lu drew out his blade and chopped all the arrows down.

“Young miss, hurry up and bring my young master away. I will bring up the rear!” Elder Lu turned and shouted at Lu Xiaoyuan.

Before Lu Xiaoyuan could do anything, many men in pitch-black garbs started to rush out of the forest.

The men all had a piece of black cloth on their faces. Their faces couldn’t be seen and they were all holding long knives in their hands. They looked like people one shouldn’t randomly provoke.

The leaders of these men were riding on horses. Their gazes were cold as ice.

One of the leaders ordered angrily, “Leave no one alive!”

“Gold Xiao’er.” Lu Xiaoyuan was extremely furious.

“Yes.” Gold Xiao’er nodded.

He flung his hand towards the men. With that, balls of golden flames floated out from his hand and landed on the group of men.

After the balls of flame touched the men, they started burning violently. In a blink of an eye, the men were all burnt into crisp.

Elder Lu was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

He always thought that these three people were just ordinary people, but unexpectedly, they were all powerful cultivators hiding their true abilities.

Elder Lu felt fortunate when he thought of this.

Luckily, he was polite and didn’t try to steal their little plant friend just now.

If he really did try to steal the plant, both he and his young master might be dead by now…

He suddenly felt that the pugilistic world was really scary.

“Thank you for saving our lives, seniors.” Elder Lu bowed at them.

“No problem. Don’t forget what you said.” Lu Xiaoyuan looked at him before picking Zhou Ye up.

“You little plant spirit, you are so stupid.”

She mumbled as a colorful holy light appeared on her palm.

Elder Lu carried Qin Yi on his back. When he turned around, he saw this scene. His heart started pounding really quickly.

Oh my god, the peak of the Xuan Sea realm, which he felt so proud of, was nothing compared to this young girl.

He couldn’t see through the other party’s cultivation state so he thought that they were just ordinary people. Thinking back about it, it was embarrassing.

The colorful holy light touched Zhou Ye’s body and Zhou Ye’s broken leaf started growing rapidly. Within a few breaths, he was healed completely.

Zhou Ye realized that the energy of the colorful holy light hadn’t been fully used up yet.

He immediately started absorbing it.

“All-purpose Points +1000.”

Wow, Master Deer was so generous.

At this moment, Zhou Ye looked at Lu Xiaoyuan with a gentle gaze.

He had completely forgotten all the bad things Lu Xiaoyuan had said to him.

After everything was settled, Gold Xiao’er said to Lu Xiaoyuan, “Master Deer, shall we leave now?”

“Sure.” Lu Xiaoyuan nodded.

The three of them rode on their horses and slowly left the crime scene.

On the road, a few batches of horses brought by those men stood rooted on the spot in a daze. They didn’t know what to do.

Elder Lu pulled one of the horses over and placed Qin Yi on it. Then, he got onto another horse.

“Giddy up!”

He rode a horse while pulling the horse with Qin Yi. Elder Lu followed behind Lu Xiaoyuan silently.

He would definitely fulfill what he promised.
