"Gongzi, look, this seedling is a little different from the others."

"Hmm?" Meng Yang looked in the direction that Xia He pointed and indeed, he found a relatively small seedling. Other than being small, the seedling was also a little green, and it was easy to distinguish by just looking at the seedling. Meng Yang touched the seedling with his hand, and said, "This seedling is indeed different from the other seedlings, could it be that it is stunted?"

"No, no, master, this seedling has mutated, not developed."

"It mutated?" "Is there such a thing?"

"Yeah, but I don't know if this mutation is in a good direction or a bad place."

"Isn't this mutation fixed?"

"Of course, if the mutation is fixed, then it can't be called a mutation. The reason why it's not fixed is because it's called a mutation."

"Gongzi, this mutation should be heading in a good direction."

"Hmm? "What do you mean?"

"I can feel that this seedling absorbs the aura of death faster than other seedlings. Logically speaking, the more dead aura this seedling absorbs, the faster it should grow, but this seedling is still the smallest. From this, one can see that the quality of this seedling is much higher than other seedlings."

"En," Meng Yang agreed and nodded, "That makes sense."

"Master, Xia He, this cannot be said, although Xia He's analysis is correct, but all of you have forgotten one important thing, and that is, what is the use of this sapling? Master, what is your purpose in raising the Black Lotus?"

"Of course it's for the exchange point."

"Yes, it is for the exchange points. If the quality of this seedling increases and the number of exchange points given to the owner increases, then it would naturally change in a good direction. But what if the number given to the owner decreases or even becomes non-existent?" Wouldn't it mean that she's worse than her master? "

After hearing what Little Ling said, Meng Yang frowned slightly, "You're right."

"Young master, you want to know if it's better or worse. You'll know when it's done." Even if Master did not get what she wanted from the Black Lotus, it would be alright.

Mun Xirou did not participate in the discussion on this topic, and instead continued to look around. Ah? Xia He, what about your subordinates? Didn't you let them in? Why haven't I seen them? "

Oh, they seem to be on top of the rock. Although this rock is emitting a deathly aura, every place is emitting a different aura of death. I told them to look for a place with a higher concentration of the dead aura, and when the time comes, I'll see if I can transplant these seedlings there. Even if I can't, I'll just leave the next batch of lotus seeds to be planted in that place.

"Wah!" Xia He, I never thought that you would think it through so much, my brother really did not choose wrong when he handed over this important mission to you. "

Xia He's face slightly blushed, showing that he was slightly embarrassed. At the same time, he secretly glanced at Meng Yang, "Um, I only did what I was supposed to do, it's not as good as you say."

"Aiya, Xia He, don't be modest. Look, you cook delicious food, work nimbly, think carefully, and are beautiful. Tsk, tsk, tsk, if someone were to marry you, they would really be fortunate."

"I …" Xia He peeked at Meng Yang once again, "Alright, Xirou, stop teasing me, I'm not as good as you make me out to be."

Right at that moment, a few of his subordinates appeared in front of them, with Xiang Yan as the leader. When the others saw Xia He, they immediately knelt down, "Lord, the task that you had ordered us to do has been completed."

"Okay, let's talk first."

"Yes, Lord, we have already found nine spots with relatively dense death aura, and each point is very large, it shouldn't be a problem to grow the incoming pearls."

"How many places have you investigated?"

"Less than a tenth of this stone."

"Not even one tenth of this stone can have nine? Doesn't that mean there are over a hundred of these places on this rock? "

"Yes, according to our initial calculations, this stone should have over a hundred of these places."

"Hmm, you guys continue to check. Remember, for every place you find, make a mark there."

"Yes." A few people respectfully bowed towards Xia He before climbing onto the stone once again.

"Damn, I couldn't tell, Xia He, I didn't expect you to be so good when you became the leader."

"No, young master, don't make fun of me."

If you don't believe me, you can ask Little Ling and Xirou, right? Little Ling, Xirou. "

"Mn, Master is right, Xia He is indeed very capable, he might become a female general in the future, wow, just thinking about it makes me really excited."

"It's not as good as you make it out to be. I was just a bit serious with my words."

"Hehe, Xia He is shy."

Although Meng Yang and the others did not know what Xia He was trying to do, they were all sensible enough to not disturb him. After about five minutes, Xia He slowly opened his eyes.

"What's wrong? Xia He? "

"Young master, I just tried to feel the situation inside this rock."

"Internal situation? Do you feel anything then? "

"I'm not too sure what's going on inside the rock, but the center of the rock seems to be hollow. There's a huge space inside, and I'm not too sure if there's anything inside."

"Hollow?" Meng Yang was also slightly taken aback, "Xia He, are you sure it's empty?"

"Yes, I'm sure of that. Young master, do you want us to split this rock and take a look?"

"Don't!" Just as Xia He made this suggestion, Mun Xirou stepped forward to stop him, "Brother, don't split it open!"

"Why?"

Brother, this rock is so big, I dare say it's very, very rare. If you were to split it open, then the rarity would be greatly reduced. Besides, this rock is so big, it's almost comparable to a small mountain.

"This …"

"Aiya, don't be like this and listen to me."

"Fine, I'll listen to you. Anyways, there's no need to split this rock. Even if there really is something inside, it won't be able to escape."

"Yes, yes."

Five days passed very quickly and Little Ling had also been accompanying him for the past few days. Following the sound of thunder, a group of Tribulation Cloud slowly formed above Meng Yang's head and an incomparable pressure directly pressed onto Meng Yang's body. In an instant, Meng Yang felt as if he was being watched by something.
