"Miss is sick."
old man Sun frowned. There was worry in his eyes as he replied.
Lin Xiao was shocked when he heard old man Sun's answer.
Xu Qingruo's condition... Lin Xiao had known about it many years ago. When they first met, Xu Qingruo brought the illness to Yuzhou to find the herb to cure the illness. But he had clearly helped Xu Qingruo get the herb she needed. Why was she sick again?
Lin Xiao could not help frowning and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on!? Didn't Qingruo's illness already recover?"
"Sigh! Miss's old illness is acting up again. The medicine last time did not cure the root!"
When old man Sun heard this, he sighed and his expression was filled with worry.
At this time, a figure appeared behind the two of them. It was none other than Xu Tianchong.
"Follow me."
Xu Tianchong said softly. The person he was talking to was naturally Lin Xiao.
Although this courtyard was huge, Xu Tianchong's strength was still there. Once there was a slight disturbance, it naturally wouldn't escape his eyes. After Lin Xiao appeared, Xu Tianchong also walked out.
"Yes. Lin Xiao bid goodbye to old man Sun and followed Xu Tianchong into a room.
Xu Tianchong definitely knew more about Xu Qingruo's illness than old man Sun. Lin Xiao naturally followed Xu Tianchong, wanting to get to the bottom of it.
"Uncle Xu, what exactly is going on? Why is Qingruo sick again?" Lin Xiao impatiently asked as soon as they entered the room.
"Do you know why I didn't object to your relationship with Qingruo?"
Xu Tianchong sighed and said slowly. "Actually, the reason is very simple. I just want Qingruo to live a happy life. Otherwise, do you think I will let you touch my daughter in front of me?"
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Tianchong awkwardly and did not know what to say.
At this time, Xu Tianchong sighed again and said slowly, "Actually, her illness is innate. I thought the thing last time could cure her, but it only temporarily suppressed her illness. It is very difficult to cure her completely."
"What else do you need?"
Lin Xiao naturally had feelings for Xu Qingruo, so after Xu Tianchong said those words, Lin Xiao asked directly.
"Nine Ghost Grass, Phoenix Perching Herb, and Firethorn Flower!"
Xu Tianchong looked at Lin Xiao and said slowly. "In the beginning, we also invited famous doctors from the Jianghu, but they were all helpless. I had no choice but to make a trip to the Medicine Sect. I spent a full 10% of the Ice Jade I obtained from Liang Zhou before getting the Medicine Sect to send their Great Elder to personally diagnose and treat Qingruo."
This...
10% of Ice Jade!
The cost of this treatment was really not small!
When Lin Xiao heard this, he could not help frowning and continued to ask, "What kind of illness is Qingruo's illness? Where are we going to find these three herbs?"
"This is not an illness. "This is the Innate Nine Underworlds Body! " This is an extremely strong physique, if one can withstand three life and death tribulations, then one can soar to the heavens, but if one cannot withstand it, then there is only death! "
Xu Tianchong was deeply worried. He glanced at Lin Xiao. He continued, "The last three life and death tribulations should be the first. This is the second time, I want to get through this. The Medicine Sect gave a method that required more than ten precious pearls of medicinal herbs to be used to refine a Divine Pill. Unfortunately, even though I've used a variety of connections, I've only managed to find ten of them. "There are still three that I haven't obtained. These three are the Nine Ghost Grass, the Phoenix Perching Herb, and the Scarlet Sun Flower!"
It had to be said that even though he had come into contact with many types of herbs when refining divine pills, Lin Xiao had never heard of these three types.
Looking at Lin Xiao's expression, Xu Tianchong also roughly knew the result, but this was also within his expectations.
"I will try my best to find it." Lin Xiao said solemnly.
Xu Tianchong smiled and said, "I trust you, but these three materials are not easy to get. As for the whereabouts, I know almost all of them."
"You know?"
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Tianchong with surprise.
"Yes. After all, I am also one of the Ten Sects. It is still better to investigate these things than you guys. " Although I have found the whereabouts of these three types of herbs, it's not that easy to obtain them. "
Xu Tianchong sighed and said, "Among them, the Nine Ghost Grass appeared once a hundred years ago. "But it was obtained by an expert from the Empty Sect, but it's not that easy to get something from the Empty Sect. They had completely rejected the conditions I gave them. As for the Phoenix Perching Herb... According to the legends, the Contract Beast of the Beast Sect's Sect Master was a phoenix. However, the Beast Sect had always hated the External Three Sects the most. "They look down on us, and they didn't even give me anything to negotiate with them!"
This...
Empty door!
Beast Sect!
These two sect were not existences to be trifled with.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but ask, "What about the last herb?"
"The last Scarlet Sun Flower is in the Treasure Pavilion. However, this Scarlet Sun Flower is in the hands of the Treasure Pavilion's first lady. She wants me to help her obtain the Water of Life!" Xu Tianchong said with an ugly expression on his face.
This...
Lin Xiao was speechless after hearing what Xu Tianchong said.
Sure enough, none of these three types were easy to obtain. Furthermore, just a single Firethorn Flower was enough to make Xu Tianchong pay such a huge price. Lin Xiao had never thought that this would happen.
"What do you plan to do, Uncle Xu?" Lin Xiao thought for a moment and asked.
After hesitating for a while, Xu Tianchong slowly said, "The Nine Ghost Grass and Phoenix Perching Herb have not been solved yet. However, I have to get the Firethorn Flower first."
"About the Spring of Life, Uncle Xu, you must have prepared it for a long time. Are you willing to give it to Treasure Pavilion just like that?" Lin Xiao asked again.
Xu Tianchong smiled and said, "Of course I'm not willing to give it to her. That's why I don't intend to give it to her just like that. I will take the Firethorn Flower, and I won't give up on this Spring of Life."
"This..."
Lin Xiao didn't know what to say.
Xu Tianchong continued, "I have prepared too many Spring of Lifes this time, so I will not make any mistakes this time. You should cooperate with me."
"How?" Lin Xiao asked.
Xu Tianchong showed a mysterious smile and said slowly, "Don't worry about that. It is not time yet. I will inform you in advance when the time is right."
"Alright."
Lin Xiao did not refuse and nodded.
