Chapter 136
It was Su Xiuyi who had officially ordered the compensation. The three months that Ning Haotian had asked for had also passed.
Jiang Chen hadn’t died in Li Qin’s hands as they wished, so the Black Dragon City had to raise 30 million low-grade yuan stones in a hurry and bring them to Jiang Chen.
Each low-grade yuan stone was the size of a small pebble, but 30 million of them could pile up like a mountain.
The airships used to transport the yuan stones kept leaving and arriving, bringing infinite yuan stones to the Redcloud Peak.
At the same time, Jiang Chen had made it in the top ten of the Talent List and promoted to key disciple.
With the Medicine Elder on his side, his status in the Natural Law School had greatly improved.
Since he had holy pulses, the disciples of the school had envisioned a future in which Ning Haotian and he competed for the leader’s position.
This meant that even if one had made a great effort to find four of them, he would get nowhere if they lacked the fifth.
And there was a great possibility that the fifth couldn’t be found.
But no matter how hard it was, Jiang Chen was resolute.
“I’ll spend the 30 million low-grade yuan stones on collecting information so that I can refine the antidote in the least time when I’m powerful enough to do it.”
Gao Yue shook her head and said, “My lifespan has been recovered by your school leader, but my state has been weakened. If I face Li Qin again, I’ll definitely die. There is no need to waste your time and energy on me.”
“If I can’t help you get rid of the poison, it’ll become one of my biggest worried. Over time, it will ruin me,” Jiang Chen said something that his mother couldn’t refute.
“The devil inside you!”
Gao Yue was shocked and gave up the idea to talk him out of it.
“That’s fine. Don’t try too hard.”
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded. When he had said to his father that he would rescue him from the Black Dragon Pool, his father had said the same thing to him.
Jiang Chen immediately asked Wen Xin to gather information for him. As a princess, it was easier for her than for him.
It was true. Wen Xin had results in only a few days.
“According to the Intelligence Pavilion, one of the spiritual herbs you’re looking for is in the Realm of Beasts, and another is in the Alien Battlefield. They’re still investigating the other three.
“The Mysterious Herbal Pavilion told me that the spiritual herbs you wanted couldn’t be kept for a long time. You’ll have to collect them right at the time of use. Besides, they’re so rare that only pharmacies in the Dragon Field are good enough to provide them.”
Wen Xin glanced at Jiang Chen in surprise after finishing her words. She said, “What kind of panaceas are you going to refine? Even the Mysterious Herbal Pavilion cannot take your order. The information provided by the Intelligence Pavilion has almost cost all of the 30 million low-grade yuan stones.”
“What’s more, the Intelligence Pavilion suggested you hire people in the Reaching Heaven State to look for the spiritual herbs in the Alien Battlefield, but no matter whether they can find them or not, you’ll have to pay them 100 million low-grade yuan stones. If they find them, they’ll charge you extra depending on the functions of the herbs.”
Wen Xin was extremely shocked. She didn’t understand why Jiang Chen needed such expensive spiritual herbs.
