2246 Who?
It was rare for her to feel a little embarrassed.
“This… I’m really sorry. I didn’t expect the matter to blow up so much that it even implicated Zhen Bao Pavilion.”
Ming Shu looked at her strangely. “Miss Shangguan, why are you saying this?”
Chu Liuyue coughed. “If I hadn’t insisted on going to the medicinal mountain to get that dragon-taming nut, those things wouldn’t have happened and affected Zhen Bao Pavilion’s business…”
“Hey, are you talking about this?” Ming Shu immediately understood and laughed. “You don’t have to apologize for this. Anyway, our Zhen Bao Pavilion doesn’t rely on the medicinal herb business to make a living; it’s just that it’s less profitable. Be it Xuan formations, Yuan instruments, or even legendary fiends, they all account for much more than the medicinal herb business!”
Chu Liuyue was dazed. “You mean—”
“Hehe, think about it. That medicinal mountain in Fantasy Divine Palace has countless natural treasures growing there. Although the Eighth Deity set many rules before, most heavenly doctors can still enter and get what they want. Only a small portion of them need to be operated through our Zhen Bao Pavilion. Speaking of which, this bit of money is nothing. You don’t have to take it to heart!”
Chu Liuyue: “…”
This Zhen Bao Pavilion is really… How rich! There are so many medicinal herbs in the business, but they were abandoned just like that. If this was San San, he would probably cry on the spot.
She thought about Ming Shu’s words carefully and felt that it made sense. However, she still felt a little bad that she had caused losses for them.
“On the other hand, you’re really famous in Fantasy Divine Palace now!” Ming Shu gave her a thumbs-up and praised her sincerely. “Everyone said that it was because Miss Shangguan insisted on competing with Liang He in refining medicine that you got that person to take action and suppress the Eighth Deity. She also abolished all the rules she set previously. From now on, everyone can enter and leave the medicinal mountain casually. Countless people are extremely grateful to you!”
Chu Liuyue smiled. “You must be joking. This really has nothing to do with me.”
I just wanted a few dragon-taming nuts. As for the rest… it was really out of my control.
Ming Shu chuckled. “No matter what, your status in Fantasy Divine Palace will be different in the future. When they see you, they will definitely thank you personally!”
Chu Liuyue’s lips curled up slightly, but she didn’t take it to heart. She actually didn’t care much about how those people treated her.
“It’s good that you don’t blame me. I came this time because I plan to continue copying the Li Fire Xuan Map.”
Ming Shu hurriedly said, “Please!”
As Chu Liuyue walked upstairs, she asked, “Is Second Boss feeling better?”
“Much, much better! I didn’t expect Miss Shangguan to still be thinking about this,” Ming Shu replied in surprise.
Chu Liuyue stopped in her tracks and smiled faintly. “Then, I wonder if Second Boss has time to see me this time?”
Ming Shu looked a little troubled. “This… I’m afraid not yet. You don’t know this, but our Second Boss hasn’t returned for a long time. On the one hand, he has to recuperate this time. On the other hand, he still has to take a closer look at Zhen Bao Pavilion’s bills of the past few years. I reckon he really won’t have time to see you in the short term.”
He carefully glanced at Chu Liuyue. “Miss Shangguan, is there something urgent?”
Chu Liuyue paused for a moment and then chuckled. “No. Since Second Boss doesn’t have time, forget it. It’s the same if we meet again in the future.”
With that, she turned and headed for the second floor.
…
The entire second floor was as quiet as ever.
Chu Liuyue went straight to the room from last time. After entering, she realized that everything was exactly the same as when she left last time.
Ming Shu stood at the door and chuckled. “Don’t worry. You’re the only one who can come in here. No one else is allowed to barge in, so it’s still the same as before you left.”
Chu Liuyue thought to herself, After all, there’s a treasure like the Li Fire Xuan Map here. It’s quite good for them to do this. At the very least, it will save a lot of trouble for me.
“Then, please go ahead. I’ll leave now.”
Chu Liuyue nodded his head. “Take care, Lord Ming.”
Ming Shu left very straightforwardly. It was obvious that he trusted her.
Chu Liuyue pulled out a chair and sat down. She then took out the Li Fire Xuan Map.
…
This time, Chu Liuyue copied 15 Xuan formations in one go.
The first volume wasn’t difficult for her, so it was completed quickly. After that, she picked up the second volume and read it for a long time.
When she flipped to the Sky Demon Xuan formation, she paused and stared at it for a long time.
“It’s indeed a little difficult…” she muttered to herself. Even a Grandmaster would probably take a lot of time to completely comprehend it. No wonder it has trapped Xiao Ran for so long.
“It’s a little like the Heaven-Locking Formation,” she said thoughtfully.
In fact, all the Xuan formations in the Li Fire Xuan Map seemed to have something similar to the Heaven-Locking Formation.
Because she had already forcefully engraved the Heaven-Locking Formation in her mind previously, it was much easier to look at these again.
Although she had already memorized many Xuan formations in the Red Moon Desert, it wasn’t so easy to master them. Fortunately, now that her cultivation level had risen, this wasn’t a big problem for her.
After staying for a while longer, she got up.
After handing the replicated Xuan formations to Ming Shu, she left quickly.
…
Originally, she wanted to go straight back to her residence. Halfway there, she suddenly sensed a figure flying quickly over.
She looked up and saw a familiar figure. “Seventh Deity?”
From the looks of it, he is still heading for the Heaven Gate.
She blinked and immediately realized that someone else was probably here.
The Heaven Gate would be open for a year. At this stage, all the cultivators in the God Residence Realm could enter Fantasy Divine Palace as long as they could cross that ocean and step on that bridge.
It had been almost a month since they arrived, so it was normal for others to come up.
Chu Liuyue looked over and was a little curious. I don’t know who has come this time.
However, she was a little far from the Heaven Gate and couldn’t see their facial features clearly. She could only vaguely see that there seemed to be a lot of people coming. There were at least seven or eight of them.
Jin Yunlai arrived at the Heaven Gate and began to examine them one by one.
Chu Liuyue watched for a while and realized that for some reason, they seemed to be a little slow and didn’t come in for a long time.
She was also getting bored from waiting. She turned around and planned to leave.
However, she had just taken a few steps when she heard a voice from afar. “Oh, isn’t this Master Yue?”
Chu Liuyue paused and looked sideways.
The man in front had already crossed the Heaven Gate and was looking over.
At this moment, without the cover of the Heaven Gate’s light, she could finally see the other party’s appearance clearly.
“Who are you?”
