"That's right, father. At home, it's just a collection. Grandfather's body is more important!" Shangguan Mu also said quickly.

Qingyang's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect Shangguan Family to have a Naiming Flame Wood, but his expression was still indifferent. He lowered his head, savoring the tea in his cup and waited for Shangguan Sheng to speak.

Everyone in the room turned to look at the leader of the family, Shangguan Sheng. They were all waiting for him to make a decision. Old man Shangguan Li sat quietly in his seat, a complicated look in his eyes.

"Forget it, it's just a plant." He looked at his father and knew that this Numing Fire Wood was his grandfather's most precious treasure. Even though it was precious, it was still not as valuable as Shangguan Li's body.

"Brother Yang Chou, how are you going to use this Nan Ming Li Mu to cure my father's poison?" Seeing that Shangguan Li didn't object, he turned to Qingyang and asked.

"This spell was given to me by Master. Please forgive me for not telling you." With raised eyebrows, Qingyang replied indifferently.

However, it was understandable, after all, they had only known each other for a day. Even though he had saved his children's lives, it was unlikely that he would be able to find more than a few of them, not to mention it was related to his father's body.

"This... What else does Brother Yang Chou need? Just open your mouth. " Shangguan Dun asked after a moment of silence.

"An empty room would do." Qingyang took a quick glance at him and realized that he was worried too, but he didn't point it out.

"Young man, you only need an empty room?" Hearing this, not only was Shangguan tong stunned, even Shangguan Li was surprised.

Qingyang nodded and said with a faint smile, "It can't be that the old man doesn't trust me, right?"

Shangguan Li smiled awkwardly and said quickly, "How is that possible?" This old man naturally trusts little brat Yang. "

"In that case, let's do as Brother Yang Chou said." At this moment, Shangguan tong didn't show any surprise and instead laughed out loud: "Brother Yang Chou, you should stay at my Shangguan Mansion for a few more days, so that I can do my best as a guest."

Qingyang naturally didn't believe that Shangguan Sheng had no other intentions, but since he didn't show it, he pretended to be a fool and chatted for a while before making his way to the inner hall to enjoy the wine.

On the table, we were still talking, but we were calling each other brothers and toasting each other.

"..."

Late at night, Qingyang sat cross-legged in the room that Shangguan Tun had arranged for him. Although it was filled with the smell of alcohol, he wasn't intoxicated at all.

"This Shangguan Dun is not only wise but also scheming." After a day of interaction, although Qingyang didn't seem to be familiar with this person, he still had some understanding. "This kind of person is indeed frightening."

How could Qingyang not understand that the most terrifying person in this world was not a fierce warrior, but a person with a heavy heart and a heavy tongue. However, after just one day of interaction, Qingyang could not determine what kind of person Shangguan Dun was, but he still remained cautious, or perhaps it was better to say that they were both wary of each other.

"However, if I suddenly make a move, I'm not afraid of the Shangguan family. There is only one Spirit Refinement expert that is restrained by the fire poison." While speaking to himself, Qingyang had a plan in his mind. He set up a spell and focused on absorbing that drop of Ancestral Voodoo blood.

"..."

"Dun'er, what do you think of this Yang kid?" At the same time, in a secret room in the Shangguan family, Shangguan tong and Shangguan Li were also discussing something in a low voice.

"I still can't figure it out, but it's not the same as the group of people that tried to kill Jingxiang's group." Staring at the dim candlelight, Shangguan Sheng's brows furrowed as he said in a deep voice, "I always felt something was wrong with him, but I don't know what it was."

"Could it be that he wants to swindle my Shangguan Family's Naiming Flame Wood?" Shangguan Li's heart clenched as he whispered in surprise.

"It's also possible, but I'm afraid that a Spirit Refinement powerhouse would rather forcefully steal it than play this kind of trick right?" With a wave of his hand, he stood up and walked over to the window, deep in thought.

"Not even I can understand this boy's cultivation. However, I can feel that there is a dangerous aura coming from his body." Shangguan Li also felt a bit of a beating in his heart. The wood elementalist was extremely sensitive, and Shangguan Li didn't understand why he felt an inexplicable sense of fear towards Azure Sun.

Staring at the pitch-black night sky, Shangguan Sheng turned to his father and said faintly, "Tomorrow, I'll have Fan Jing test out his medical skills. If he really is more skilled than Fan Jing, then I'm afraid he's not lying. If we can't even match up to Fan Jing, then we might as well get ready. "

Each of the officials had their own thoughts on this hot summer night, causing the already stuffy atmosphere to become even more stifling. It was unknown if it was due to the silence during the storm.

"..."

On the morning of the next day, Shangguan Jingxiang and Shangguan Mu invited Qingyang to tour North Chi County with them. Qingyang, who had originally wanted to explore around, nodded in agreement.

"Sir, although our Northern Chi County is not as elegant and beautiful as Yangzhou or Nanxiong County, there is something special about it as well." Dressed in the attire of a noble family's young master, Shangguan Mu introduced him with a smile.

Looking at the young man who was actually slightly older than him, Qingyang smiled and asked: "Oh? I wonder what's so special about this Northern Chi County-City? "

Looking around, Shangguan Mu whispered two words mysteriously into Qingyang's ear: "Herbs."

Qingyang was stunned for a moment. He had not heard Dongfang Bo mention this matter. So the unique characteristic of the Northern Chi Country was actually the medicinal ingredients?

"Oh? I have never heard of this before. " There was no change in Qingyang's expression. He was still calm and composed as he smiled: "But what did Master Shangguan say?"

"Actually, this is also a secret of my Shangguan family. How would ordinary people know about it?" Shangguan Jingxiang, who had been staring at Qingyang with a smile, seemed a little proud. She quickly explained, "But sir, since you're the savior of me and Mu Er and also want to dispel the fire poison for grandpa, I don't mind telling you."

"That's quite interesting. I wonder, what are the special characteristics of the Shangguan family's medicinal plants?" As he thought about how the Shangguan Family, which even an ordinary Sky Immortal Vine needed to go to, would have nothing special about medicinal herbs, Qingyang felt very curious.

Seeing that Qingyang had also revealed an expression of curiosity, Shangguan Mu also felt rather proud. He chuckled and said: "Mister also knows that my Shangguan family is a wood elementalist."

"Could it be that the Shangguan family is growing all kinds of herbs?" Qingyang thought for a moment and seemed to only have this kind of answer after thinking about it, so he asked with a soft voice.

"That's right, my Shangguan family does cultivate all kinds of herbs." Shangguan Jingxiang nodded slightly, a trace of pride in her eyes as she looked at Qingyang.

"Since you've been cultivating yourselves, then why did you guys still go to the depths of the mountains to pick herbs as common as the Sky Immortal Vine?" Qingyang puzzledly asked, "Could it be that you've never cultivated ordinary things, but instead focused on cultivating all kinds of precious medicinal herbs?"

"That's right. My Shangguan family has several herb gathering teams that regularly enter the deep mountains to pick ordinary medicines." A trace of astonishment flashed across their eyes, the two of them felt even more admiration towards Qingyang's intelligence. "Sir, if we didn't just get to know each other yesterday, I really would have regarded you as a member of my Shangguan Family."

Qingyang didn't say anything after hearing this. However, he was incomparably surprised. This wood cultivator could indeed speed up the growth of medicinal plants and increase the medical value of medicinal plants.

However, he did not expect the Shangguan family to be so bold as to cultivate a large amount of precious herbs. This meant that not only would they need a lot of cultivators, they would also need to monopolize the entire Northern Chi Country, or even the entire Xuzhou.

After all, those who had more precious medicinal herbs would not be able to grow them in a hundred or eighty years. After all, those who had more precious medicinal herbs would not be able to grow them in a hundred or eighty years.

A windfall, an absolute windfall!

Qingyang was secretly impressed by the Shangguan Family's management methods, but his Divine Sense suddenly felt a distant unfriendly gaze staring at him.
