Chapter 745: The Reason for Being Impersonated
ngyu disguised herself as a middle-aged woman.
She walked out of the room, glanced around, and called out in a certain direction, "Le De, can you tell where the black market is?"
Le De, who was helplessly hiding on an ancient locust tree in the alley outside the courtyard, had no choice but to jump into the courtyard: "How did you find ?"
Ever since he advanced to the Innate level, he felt that his stealth Cultivation Technique had greatly improved, yet he was still discovered by ngyu.
ngyu rolled her eyes: "You’re such a big guy, constantly emitting heat energy all the ti, how could I not sense it?"
Le De was at a loss for words, as he couldn’t possibly turn himself into a cold-blooded creature, could he? It seems impossible to hide from his lord in the future.
"The Family Head asked to protect you in secret, and I have assigned Le Shan and Le Shui to secretly monitor the impostor lady."
ngyu was taken aback: "Does he believe my identity now?"
"Yes. But he said that now is not the right ti to reveal your identity, so, you’ll have to be inconvenienced for the ti being. However, he told to bring you the Cultivation Resources that belong to the Eldest Miss Nan."
"The Eldest Miss Nan’s?"
"Yes, the Family Head caught her mistake and cut off her Cultivation Resources for a year." As Le De spoke, he handed ngyu a small bag.
ngyu took the bag and saw that it contained three bottles and a bankbook with a balance of one hundred thousand yuan.
ngyu looked at Le De, puzzled.
Le De explained to her: "This porcelain bottle contains Spiritual Liquid, which can improve Cultivation speed. This bottle here contains two Yuan Nourishing Pills, used by Martial Artists to break through barriers. And this tiny Jade Bottle contains Essence of Stone."
He secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that his lord surely wouldn’t care about such trifles, would she? After all, she had given him a bottle of Yuan Nourishing Pills when she acknowledged him as her subject.
The Spiritual Liquid seed to her to have only slightly more Spiritual Energy than the water from her spring. If she wanted, she could just concentrate so of the Spiritual Spring in her space and refine it herself.
As for the Yuan Nourishing Pill, she was quite disappointed when she poured them out—the Pills seed to have been boiled and were far inferior to the ones she made herself.
As for the last item, Essence of Stone, before ngyu could even speak, Xiao Tao cried out in surprise in the space: "Essence of Stone, there’s actually Essence of Stone! This is a Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."
ngyu was curious: "Is it better than our Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills?"
"Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills clean the impurities within the body, but Essence of Stone, it transforms the body! Even if the body’s aptitude isn’t great, with Essence of Stone, it can still be transford for the better. Moreover, the transformation is very gentle, unlike Dragon Blood—"
ngyu naturally knew that the Dragon Blood Xiao Tao ntioned was Monster Fish Blood, which was very brutal in transforming a person but had excellent effects.
ngyu turned to Le De: "Does every mber of the Nan Family have these things?"
Le De gave a bitter smile: "We Hidden Guards also have Yuan Nourishing Pills and Spiritual Liquid, but the Essence of Stone is only provided to Nan Family’s direct descendants. It is said to be a legacy from the ancestors of the main branch before they joined the Immortal Sect, left to guard their kin outside. In this bottle you have, there is only one drop. However, this single drop can’t be bought even with one million yuan on the black market."
ngyu paused, finally understanding why that person had impersonated Nan Mingzhu to pose as the Eldest Lady—it was for these precious Cultivation Resources!
Even if she was eventually discovered, the resources that had been used couldn’t be recovered, could they?
Hearing that it was only one drop, Xiao Tao expressed her disdain before ngyu could speak: "One drop, what use is that? However, my lady, although your body has been transford with Dragon Blood, if you use Essence of Stone, it will beco even more perceptive..."
ngyu rolled her eyes inwardly: "Who wouldn’t want to improve their own aptitude? But one drop is too little, let’s save it for now and use it when we have accumulated enough."
She was indeed curious about what exactly Essence of Stone was, given its value, and wanted to see for herself.
She opened the lid and took a sniff, her face revealing a strange expression: "Is this Essence of Stone?"
