Deeply inhaled, declared solemnly, “In that case, 1 take my leave!”

With a quick motion, he left directly.

Meng Chong exhaled a breath, took off the wig and stuffed it into his bosom, grinning broadly. Xie Lingfeng’s reputation really comes in handy!

It’s really powerful as a deterrent!

At the same time, he was glad that he had followed Shi’er’s advice to prepare a wig, which could indeed be useful at critical moments.

He descended from midair.

“Since I’ve scared off the people around here, hurry up and collect the Spiritual

Medicine.”

Meng Shushu’s face was in sorrow: “Brother Meng, how could you pretend to be Xie Lingfeng? He is the prodigy of Sword Cliff, the only son of Great

Grandmaster Xie!”

“What’s the matter with you? How did 1 impersonate him?

Meng Chong grumbled unhappily.

“Brother Meng, you are much more robust and sturdy than Xie Lingfeng. So how would I know? Your appearance is quite different from Xie Lingfeng!”

Meng Shushu sighed.

“Is that so?”

Meng Chong frowned, touching his head. His appearance truly differed greatly.

“Hu Shan’s physique is also robust. Although not as much as mine, my appearance is more similar to his, except for the head. Next time, 1’11 use Hu Shan’s name instead, hoping it works as well!

Meng Chong thought to himself.

He patted Meng Shushu’s shoulder: “Why are you so edgy? I didn’t impersonate anyone, 1 just borrowed a name, do you understand? Brother Xie Lingfeng himself agreed to this!”

Meng Shushu was taken by surprise, “You know Xie Lingfeng?”

“Of course!”

Meng Chong nodded.

“Do you know about Hu Shan from the Sword Cliff?”

He continued to query.

“Yes, Hu Shan, the Grandmaster of Sword Cliff, is the Attendant Student of Great Grandmaster Xie, the son of Great Grandmaster Hu Hai, and quite famous.”

Meng Shushu nodded in agreement.

Meng Chong sighed in relief at this, “So Hu Shan is also well-known. This makes things a lot easier. Next time, I’ll just use his name.

Meng Shushu:…

After the intense battle, over half of the dense forest was destroyed and half of the tree on the cliff had broken off. Meng Chong and Shushu made it to the

front of the stone grotto.

“Do we get in from here?”

Meng Chong looked at the stone cave with surprise.

“Correct, there is a portal inside the cave which can only be opened by a key. If anyone tries to forcefully destroy it, there might be some damage inside. God forbid if there is a rank six Spiritual Medicine inside, the loss would be massive.”

Meng Shushu explained.

This is also why the force where the man in black belonged didn’t choose to forcefully break in.

“There is Spiritual Medicine here, I’m glad they didn’t find it.

Excitedly, Meng Shushu arrived next to the large tree, took out his pen, gently scraped off the soil layer by layer, with utmost care.

“Is there spiritual medicine in this soil?”

Meng Chong was surprised.

At a glance, there wasn’t even a single weed to be seen, let alone any vines.

Meng Shushu picked up a wilted, grayish thin vine from the ground, barely thicker than a strand of hair, and said, “See this? This is an Earth Spirit vine. Now it’s withered. To those who are unfamiliar, this would be an ordinary vine.

“It only grows during winter, when snow covers it. Those who are not aware would simply miss it.”

While continuing to dig around the Earth Spirit vine, Meng Shushu added, “Below this is the rank eight Spiritual Medicine, Earth Spirit Root. Now is the best time to harvest Earth Spirit roots.

“If the Earth Spirit vine has grown leaves, then it’s not the optimal time for harvest. The medicinal power of the Earth Spirit Root collected during that time would be much less.”

Meng Chong’s eyes lit up. Earth Spirit Root?

On Su Lingxiu’s Spiritual Medicine list, there was an ingredient named Earth

Spirit Root.

“There’s some here too!”

Meng Chong was thrilled. He took a knife and carefully dug down along a thin

Earth Spirit Vine.

After digging down more than three feet, an object that looked like a white yam emerged from the soil.

That’s the Earth Spirit Root!

He carefully unearthed the Earth Spirit Root. It was about three inches long, about the size of a thumb, covered with an outer layer that looked like a thin white gown.

It looked just like a tender white radish.

“Brother Meng, be careful, don’t tear the gown of the Earth Spirit Root. Otherwise, without a container for storing the Spiritual Medicine, if the gown tears, the medicine in the Earth Spirit Root will dissipate.

Meng Shushu reminded.

“Understood!”

Meng Chong unearthed an Earth Spirit Root and carefully placed it into a bag. Thankfully, the gown of the Earth Spirit Root is thin but tear-resistant.

The two of them started digging around the large tree outside the cave and unearthed eight Earth Spirit Roots.

“Brother Meng, let’s store these away.”

Meng Shushu handed all the Earth Spirit Roots to Meng Chong.

“No problem!”

Meng Chong put the Earth Spirit Roots in a bag and put it in his bosom.

“Let’s go, let’s enter the treasure land!”

Outside the stone cave, they harvested the rank eight Spiritual Medicine, Earth Spirit Root. This indicates that the treasure land inside undoubtedly has even higher grade Spiritual Medicine.

“Good!”

Meng Shushu nodded.

just as he entered the stone cave, Meng Chong’s expression suddenly changed.

Two figures appeared out of nowhere, a terrifying pressure descending like the wrath of the heavens.

The Great Grandmaster!

A true Great Grandmaster!

Both were dressed in black robes, one of them being the half-step Great Grandmaster who had retreated earlier.

The other, also in a black robe, had a face mask, showing only a pair of eyes. He was a real Great Grandmaster.

Seeing this Great Grandmaster, Meng Chong’s face changed. He finally understood why he felt a sense of familiarity upon seeing the man in the black robe.

This man’s attire was almost identical to that of the black-robed Great Grandmaster who had gone to the border wastelands to capture Su Lingxiu!

The Great Grandmaster who appeared before him now was dressed just like that Great Grandmaster, exactly the same, without any difference!

“It’s my Junior Sister’s enemy!”

A chill ran down Meng Chong’s spine. He hadn’t expected that the force targeting Meng Shushu was his Junior Sister’s enemy. Were they also searching for the Spiritual Medicine to use against her?

“So you are Xie Lingfeng? You can’t fool me!”

The black-robed Great Grandmaster said coldly.

“Alright, I’ll tell you the truth. I am actually Hu Shan from Sword Master Cliff!”

Meng Chong said solemnly.

“Hmph, so what?”

The black-robed Great Grandmaster lifted his hand and randomly sent a crushing strike.

“Run!”

Meng Chong, having prepared ahead of time, grabbed Meng Shushu by the collar and whisked him away, dodging the strike.

Boom!

Leaping into the air, he distanced himself in an instant.

The Furious Thundercross Movement Technique!

Meng Chong moved like a bolt of lightning across the sky, unbelievably fast! The black-robed Great Grandmaster snorted angrily, “Where do you think you’re going!”

He hurriedly gave chase.

“Damn it, your life is more valuable than a storage bag. You owe me two storage bags, you know?”

Meng Chong cursed as they fled.

Feeling the terrifying power pursuing him from behind, Meng Chong’s face paled. He hurriedly slung Meng Shushu over his back.

Back to back.

Just like this, Meng Shushu ended up facing the Great Grandmaster who was giving chase!

Now, Meng Shushu’s face turned green.

Had he just become a human shield?

Boom!

That Great Grandmaster was not slow, but catching up with Meng Chong was easier said than done. He immediately slashed with his knife, a terrifying blade glow instantly slashing through the air towards them.

However, due to the distance separating them, the blade glow’s power was nearly dissipated when it reached them.

But, after all, it was a strike from a Great Grandmaster!

“Damn it, strike back!”

Meng Chong did not even turn his head. With one hand holding onto Meng Shushu’s collar and the other pulling him onto his back, he fled desperately!

“Attack!”

Seeing the blade glow of the Great Grandmaster approaching, Meng Shushu went pale. He was the first one in its path -he really had become a human shield!

With all his might, he thrust his hand out, attempting to block the nearly dissipated blade glow.

Puff!

The blade glow shattered under his strike, but the residual force still slammed into him.

Puff!

Meng Shushu spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if all his internal organs were about to shatter.

“Damn so, good show!”

Meng Chong praised him.

Using the force from the impact, he increased his speed instantaneously, widening the distance between them and the Great Grandmaster!

“Brother Meng, put me in front of you!”

Meng Shushu gasped for air.

“Nah, my speed is too high. You might not be able to withstand the strong winds if you were up front. It’s safer if you stay on my back!”

Meng Chong sincerely replied.

Meng Shushu’s face darkened. Damn, 1 really have become a human shield! As he watched the Great Grandmaster closing the distance, his face turned green again.

“Brother Meng, run faster!”

If the Great Grandmaster made a move, he would be the first to face the Grandmaster’s majesty!
