Chapter 568: Chapter 568: The Ancestor Who is an Expert at Planting Trees Chapter 568: Chapter 568: The Ancestor Who is an Expert at Planting Trees Because there was so little spiritual energy in the entire world, even the spiritual trees and flowers within Yunshang Qingque needed many years to regrow after being picked, so Bai Chuwei would rather search for spiritual medicine in the ordinary world than damage the Sky Garden too much.
Yet, over the past twenty or so years, it seemed as if the spiritual energy had faintly begun to revive. Otherwise, how could a branch that fell in the Fang Family’s territory have taken root upon touching the ground?
Bai Chuwei pondered for a good while and selected a few trees she liked the least. Since she had to uproot trees, she might as well remove a few more, thinking of it as a benefit to Imperial Capital University.
By the time Bai Chuwei emerged from Yunshang Qingque and entered the living room, the men with curved knives could no longer contain themselves upon seeing her, as if they had seen their hometown elders and fellow villagers.
“Miss Bai, you’re finally out. The Mo territory organization is already asking why we haven’t returned,” they said, clearly restless, fearing their true identities might be revealed.
They hadn’t even taken a sip of the tea that Butler Li had just served.
Bai Chuwei casually tossed a small jade leaf to the leader called Wanwan, “The tree is inside; the secret to unlocking it is ‘The great ancestress is both beautiful and bold.'”
This spatial spiritual tool was naturally much more advanced than the casual gift she had given to Cao Jinhai, complete with a secret to unlock it.
The demonic cultivators inhaled sharply in amazement.
This… Is this a spatial spiritual tool?
It was so exquisitely crafted, it wasn’t even half the size of their palm.
The demonic cultivators, looking at Bai Chuwei’s beautiful countenance, felt dizzy, a notion emerging in their hearts… This might not be infiltrating a nest of thieves but rather… latching onto a golden thigh?
Not daring to delay, they took the jade leaf spatial spiritual tool and quickly made their escape, their hearts filled with unease, unsure whether they could successfully complete their mission.
Removing the towering tree from the spatial spiritual tool, it was quite true that the leaves looked very similar, but upon closer inspection, it seemed as if they weren’t the same kind of tree…
Returning to the Demon Domain’s base in the Imperial Capital, Wanwan and the group of demonic cultivators felt uneasy, but honestly handed over the spiritual tree.
Half an hour later, not only were they not discovered by their superiors, but they also received rewards!
Eager for their prize, they waited only to find that each was given a hundred thousand.
As calm as still water. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel(ꜰ)ire.net
What cultivators truly sought was not money, but various resources needed for cultivation!
Being fobbed off with a mere hundred thousand felt like they hadn’t gained any real advantage.
A lesser demonic cultivator, with a bitter face, whispered, “Brother Wan, it seems we are destined to be insiders.”
Curved Knife Wanwan looked around to make sure no one was near, then excitedly took out five small boxes from the spatial spiritual tool they had earlier, proclaiming, “Being an insider is just that, being an insider. One might not even get such high-quality Spirit Pills through toiling to death in the Demon Domain.”
The Spirit Pills were a pale yellow and emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance.
Comparing the miserly Demon Domain, which only gave them a hundred thousand, to Miss Bai Chuwei’s generosity, they felt much better.
Being an insider was just fine!
If one wanted the horse to run, one had to let the horse graze. Bai Chuwei understood this principle well, so casually giving away some Spirit Pills that she made while concocting medicines was no big deal to her.
The next morning, Bai Chuwei timed her call to the headmaster.
The headmaster was now quite pleased with Bai Chuwei–she was like a treasure, not only academically successful but also able to catch the Giant Serpent on the back mountain.
With the Giant Serpent gone, the headmaster’s anxiety had eased, and upon receiving a call from Bai Chuwei, he spoke warmly, “Bai student, what’s the matter that you’re calling me so early?”
Bai Chuwei replied, “Headmaster, I would like to plant nine large trees in the school.”
