Chapter 70 Fire Nation
Feng Xi left, taking with him all the treasures of the Demon Spirit Lake, as well as people's gazes of awe, fear, and admiration. Among the crowd, there was a young man with double pupils who was surrounded by people, who was staring at Feng Xi closely, treating him as a target to be chased.
After leaving Demon Spirit Lake, Feng Xi apparently didn't know that he had gained a little fan. All his attention at this moment was attracted by an ancient prescription on a paper.
This is an ancient animal skin, on which is recorded a kind of elixir called Jiuding Guiyuan Pill. It is a supreme elixir that helps in cultivation and can assist the cultivators in the Venerable Realm in their cultivation.
"It's good stuff, but the materials are a bit difficult to get. It requires several main herbs such as the thousand-year-old ginseng, dragon blood grass, strange mushroom, green flame grass, ice spirit fruit, and more than a dozen auxiliary herbs." Feng Xi was a little amazed when he looked at the herbs needed on the animal skin.
Fortunately, he robbed the treasure house of Demon Spirit Lake this time and had several copies of all the herbs in it. He only lacked the Green Flame Grass to complete the medicinal materials for the Nine Ding Guiyuan Pill.
"It seems I have to go to Yaodu. I don't expect to find the Green Flame Grass there." Feng Xi whispered to himself, then took a step, runes appeared under his feet, and he headed towards Yaodu.
Yaodu is a very famous place with a long history from ancient times to the present.
This is not a sect, but it has corresponding rules. It is an ancient city located in the territory of the Fire Country. Many pharmacists live there and there are many magical medicines.
Legend has it that it is the birthplace of the God of Medicine.
"Please stay, sir!" Feng Xi had just taken a step when he heard a shout from behind. He stopped curiously, looked back, and found an old friend.
Compared to three years ago, Huo Lingxi has grown a lot taller. She is now dressed in red, tall, and has a bright face that is captivating with every frown and smile. The mountains that had already taken shape three years ago have now become majestic sacred mountains. Her slender waist is less than a hand's width, and below her slender waist are straight and long legs.
"It's you. Nice to see you again." Feng Xi recognized the girl. She was the same girl he met in the wilderness.
Huo Lingxi was a little surprised and said: "So you still remember me!"
"But only three years have passed." Feng Xi was a little amused. He just said hello, but the girl was so excited.
And it was not just him, even the Fire God King on the side was almost the same. Although he was a Venerable, he still lowered his posture in front of a god at this moment.
"I would also like to thank you for saving my daughter's life in the wilderness. I have been looking for you and wanted to thank you in person." The God of Fire said gratefully.
No one knows how much of this is true or false. The God of Fire may really want to thank Feng Xi for saving his daughter, but at this moment, he wants to take this opportunity to get closer to this god.
Feng Xi couldn't deny it. This was a normal human emotion. He didn't feel anything was wrong, so he smiled and said, "It's okay. It's just a piece of cake. Besides, even if I didn't help, your daughter could have saved herself."
He did not forget that this girl had already opened up a cave in the wilderness. As long as she was ruthless enough to abandon the ordinary soldiers, she could fight her way out under the protection of that guard.
Huo Lingxi and the Fire God King looked at each other, knowing that her concealment of her incompetence had long been seen through. She did not explain because that was the stupidest thing to do, and Huo Lingxi wisely chose to change the subject.
"I don't know where you are going now. You once said that you wanted to visit the Fire Country. Lingxi is always ready to entertain you." The girl's charming voice was very pleasant, and her tone was gentle and comfortable to listen to.
Feng Xi did not hide anything and told the doctor that he was going to Yaodu to look for a medicinal ingredient.
"I wonder what medicinal herbs you need? Our Fire Nation can help you." The Fire God King seized the opportunity and asked hurriedly. This is a god who destroyed the Demon Spirit Lake with just a wave of his hand. If he can gain friendship with him, he will definitely benefit a lot in the future.
After hearing what the Fire God King said, Feng Xi fell into deep thought. The medicine capital was within the territory of the Fire Kingdom. Instead of looking for it himself, it would be better to ask the Fire Kingdom for help.
After figuring it out, Feng Xi said, "Oh, that's troublesome. I need some Green Flame Grass. Is it hard to find?"
The Fire God King was overjoyed, not finding it troublesome at all. Instead, he said happily, "It's not a bother. When we return to the imperial capital, I'll have someone look for it. Then I'll go find my brother. Maybe there's Green Flame Grass in the national treasury."
Feng Xi did not discourage the enthusiasm of the Fire God King. He said thank you and followed the two of them to the Fire Kingdom.
……
One day later, Fire Nation, Imperial Capital.
The three of them returned to the Fire God's Palace. After the Fire God instructed Huo Lingxi to treat Feng Xi well, he went straight to the palace to see the Fire Emperor.
What happened yesterday was too big. The destruction of the Demon Spirit Lake will definitely affect the situation in the Wilderness. By then, the excellent resources that the Demon Spirit Lake used to occupy will definitely be divided up by various forces. He must tell the Fire Emperor about these things as soon as possible to avoid losing the opportunity. Moreover, compared to the resources of the Demon Spirit Lake, the matter of the god Feng Xi is also of paramount importance.
When the Fire God King arrived at the palace, the sunset was almost complete. He walked unimpeded all the way to the outside of the Fire Emperor's Palace. The first person he saw was not the Fire Emperor, but his niece.
"Uncle, didn't you go to Demon Spirit Lake? Why are you back so soon?"
Huo Ling'er, now eight years old, is extremely lively. As the most favored daughter of the Fire Emperor, she has almost no shackles in the palace. It is not surprising for the Fire God King to see Huo Ling'er here.
"It's Ling'er. The matter of Demon Spirit Lake has ended. Uncle came to see your father for something." The Fire God King said kindly. He also loved his well-behaved niece.
"So soon, who won? I heard from sister Zhuque that Feng Xi is very powerful." Huo Linger asked curiously with her bright big eyes.
The spirit of sacrifice knew Feng Xi, and the Fire God King immediately grasped the key point of the words. However, this was not the time to talk about these things. He would ask his royal brother and find out what was going on.
After standing up, the Fire God naturally took his niece's hand and walked into the Fire Emperor Palace.
This is the most important place in the Fire Nation and the place where the Fire Emperor handles government affairs. When the two walked into the hall, they saw a dignified middle-aged man sitting on the dragon throne looking at the memorials in his hand.
"Father, uncle is here to see you." Huo Linger called out in a cheerful tone.
The guards and palace maids standing by were no longer surprised by this scene. If anyone else dared to shout so loudly in the Fire Emperor's Palace, they would definitely be punished. But if it was Huo Linger, even if they demolished the place, the Fire Emperor would be there to hand them an axe.
Sure enough, the Fire Emperor, who had originally looked stern, relaxed his frown after hearing Huo Linger's voice. Although he did not show it on his face, anyone who was familiar with the Fire Emperor knew that he was very happy at the moment.
