Chapter 1647: Chapter 1647: Is It This Color?

Upon hearing this, several senior brothers glanced at her.

This obedient Gu Qingyu was something they had never seen before; they guessed she must be plotting something again, and all thought the same thing: let her do as she pleases.

Even if she risked her own life to the extreme and something happened to her during the apprenticeship, they could explain it away. These people had high statuses, so even if something truly happened to the junior sister, it would be no concern of theirs.

“It’s good that the junior sister knows.”

Brother Zheng looked at her with a profound gaze, speaking indifferently.

“Heh, hehe.”

Gu Qingyu laughed awkwardly. She knew these people didn’t trust her, but what did that matter?

She was determined to achieve her goal, and no one could stop her. She would definitely secure one of those two individuals; if the one with the woman proved difficult to capture, she would take the other one instead.

…

In the Zhedu Sea Area, even just in the Outer Domain, demonic beasts were astoundingly abundant, and all of them had high cultivation levels.

They had only traveled a short distance, perhaps a few kilometers, and the group had already fought more than a dozen battles, killing enough demonic beasts to pile up into a small mountain.

However, killing demonic beasts was not difficult for them, after all, because they had many people.

Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue hadn’t even made a move yet, and neither had Zhan Beiye. It was Su Tang leading a group of guards at the front, slaying demonic beasts to clear the path for them.

And walking at the very back, Brother Zheng and his group didn’t have to do anything at all; they could still casually collect some medicinal herbs.

“Brother, should we also… also move up to help?” one of the senior brothers said lightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed as he watched the guards fighting the demonic beasts ahead and asked softly.

If they could, they really would have gone to help, but they were afraid of causing trouble for the group ahead.

After all, their strength wasn’t as great. If they did join in, they might get injured, and their initial intention of going to the Zhedu Sea Area involved the idea of frequently getting injured and their desperation in collecting medicinal herbs.

Now, just by following behind these people, life was really too comfortable.

“If we went up, we might just add to the chaos,” Brother Zheng said.

He also knew they were taking advantage of Qian Jiyun and the others for free, but if they didn’t follow them now, his fellow junior brothers and sisters would struggle to keep up and might even miss the boat later on.

So, they had to take advantage of the situation for now. When they got back on the boat, they would give most of the medicinal herbs they had gathered to them.

While they were talking, An Jiuyue took out a stack of paper from her space and handed it to Zhan Beiye, “This is what the Cold Soul Flower Core looks like. Distribute it to everyone later, and have all the guards look for it carefully.”

“Alright.”

Zhan Beiye examined the piece of paper, looking closely at a bright red medicinal herb in front of his eyes.

He wondered if An Jiuyue had made a mistake with the drawing. The words “Cold Soul” surely didn’t seem to be related to red; shouldn’t it be ice blue?

Why was it red?

“An Jiuyue, is it… this color?” he raised his head to look at An Jiuyue, then back at the paper in his hand, asking in a soft voice.

“Red, that’s correct,” An Jiuyue nodded seriously, confirming it was indeed that color.

The Cold Soul Flower Core was ice blue, that was true, but what she needed wasn’t just any Cold Soul Flower Core; it was the core of a Cold Soul Flower that was over a hundred years old. A hundred-year-old Cold Soul Flower Core would be red.

“Anything that’s not red is of no use,” she added.
