The one who suddenly appeared in the Medicine Store and bluntly pointed out the sales clerk’s excessive charge was a woman.
A woman wearing a light-yellow skirt.
Ling Xiao had seen quite a few beautiful women, but the most outstanding among them were probably Ling Yixue, Dai Yuling, Lan Yu’er, and this woman in a yellow skirt.
Their beauty was not superficial, rather they were beautiful inside and out.
Compared to them, the Heavenly Peak City’s number one beauty back then, Shi Yulian, was basically considered nothing. Although Ling Yu, Xu Ying, She Mei, and others were also beautiful and alluring, they lacked a kind of feeling.
“Wow, look, Fairy Linglong is here!”
“There were rumors in the streets that this Fairy Linglong is the number one beauty of this Sand Family Fortress, but now, it seems that it’s true. Look at that figure, too hot and sexy!”
“Hush! Don’t speak carelessly. Is Fairy Linglong someone you can blaspheme? She is the Holy Maiden bestowed to Sand Family Fortress by Heaven, and gospel of the martial artists. Many martial artists, who were seriously injured and almost half-dead, were all saved by Fairy Linglong.”
“Cough, cough, I was just talking nonsense, nothing serious.”
“Even talking nonsense is not allowed. If you blaspheme Fairy Linglong again, then don’t blame me for breaking up our friendship! Also, if someone teaches you a lesson because of this, I won’t help you.”
Among the crowd, two people actually had a conflict because of Fairy Linglong.
Ling Xiao gave this woman a thoughtful look. Honestly speaking, his first impression of this woman was pretty good.
After all, not only she had a beautiful appearance, but her temperament was also good, which enchanted other people.
Naturally, the most important thing was that the other party was willing to speak out for justice.
In fact, he also knew that this sales clerk was charging him a random price. However, with the true value of this thing, it was absolutely not something one could buy with one hundred taels of silver. Therefore, he was worried about troubles coming because of a long delay and didn’t haggle.
“Many thanks for speaking out for justice, Fairy.”
Ling Xiao glanced at Fairy Linglong, then said to that sales clerk: “Pack that herb for me. Here are one hundred taels of silver.”
But that sales clerk didn’t dare to accept those one hundred taels of silver and hastily waved his hand.
Ling Xiao, however, simply grabbed the herb and shoved the silver in that sales clerk’s hand.
Only then, he felt relieved.
The medicinal herb in his hand, not to mention one hundred taels, one couldn’t buy even with ten thousand taels of gold.
Now, more and more people have come over. But even if someone recognized it by chance, this trade was already completed. They could do nothing about it.
“Fairy Linglong, you also saw that he wanted to buy it. I didn’t force him.”
That sales clerk wanted to cry but no tears came out.
He was very afraid of this Fairy Linglong.
In the Sand Family Fortress, Fairy Linglong’s words surpassed even the words of Northern Han Country’s Emperor because those martial artists who often came here obeyed her.
Fairy Linglong was neither a Medicine Master or an Alchemist, but she had a special ability that could heal martial artists’ injuries. Moreover, that ability was very powerful.
In terms of purely healing injuries, it was better than any medicines or pills.
This was also why she was so respected.
“That’s Nine Dragon Herb!”
Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
Sure enough, there were still experts among the crowd, but these people didn’t pay much attention to this Nine Dragon Herb mixed with Nine Snake Herbs, as a result, they missed it.
After Ling Xiao picked it up, someone immediately recognized it.
On the surface, Nine Dragon Herb was very similar to Nine Snake Herb., If one was not a Medicine Master or an Alchemist, they wouldn’t notice any difference.
However, the fluid from Nine Snake Herb was green while the fluid from Nine Dragon Herb was golden.
If one’s soul power was strong enough, one could even detect that the Nine Dragon Herb has a faint dragon aura, but the Nine Snake Herb doesn’t.
According to rumors, Nine Dragon Herb that was over a thousand years old could even produce a true dragon phantom. And one could use it to comprehend a dragon-type martial soul.
The Nine Dragon Herb in Ling Xiao’s hands should be only five or six hundred years old, but strictly speaking, this thing could only be purchased with spirit stones, not even gold.
A hundred years old Nine Dragon Herb was the main ingredient to refine a low-yellow-grade pill called ‘Hundred Years Nine Dragon Essence Temper Pill’. The supplementary herbs could be substituted, but this one hundred years old Nine Dragon Herb couldn’t be replaced by anything else.
And Hundred Years Nine Dragon Essence Temper Pill was a very precious pill for cultivators. Its effect would be even better than Top Grade True Essence Pills for Ling Xiao in improving his cultivation.
More importantly, Top Grade True Essence Pill only improved the true essence.
But Hundred Years Nine Dragon Essence Temper Pill improved everything, including soul, true essence, physical body, and even the martial soul, which could be said to be an all-around improvement.
Originally, Venerable Yuan planned to refine this pill for Ling Xiao, but the materials needed to refine this pill were not so easy to find. In the Moonlight Sect, there were just some supplementary materials, several key materials were missing.
And Nine Dragon Herb was one of them.
Merely, Venerable Yuan had never expected that Ling Xiao’s luck was so good. He had yet to enter the depths of the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, but he had already found it in a store of Sand Family Fortress.
After that knowledgeable Medicine Master spoke, for a moment, everyone, including Fairy Linglong, looked at Ling Xiao with a gaze that contained a hint of ill intent.
The sales clerk seemed to instantly understand why Ling Xiao wanted to buy that Nine Snake Herb so much.
“We are not selling this thing anymore.”
Before the sales clerk could speak, the store owner walked over and said loudly.
“Are you joking? This noble son has already paid the price in full. This thing is mine now. Want to say not selling now, what a beautiful dream!”
Ling Xiao basically didn’t care about what this store owner had to say. He directly placed the Nine Dragon Herb into the Landscape World, then planted it.
If the five or six hundred years old Nine Dragon Herb could be raised to nine-hundred ninety-nine years old, the effect would be better.
It shouldn’t exceed a thousand years, otherwise, Thousand Years Nine Dragon Essence Temper Pill would be refined. And with Ling Xiao’s current cultivation, he basically wouldn’t be able to take it. Only the Celestial Realm powerhouses could take that pill.
“Your Highness Fairy Linglong, you have to get justice for my store. This person is obviously trying to forcefully buy things.”
That store owner didn’t look at Ling Xiao. He, instead, cupped his hands and bowed to Fairy Linglong.
“Humph, an outsider actually dares to run wild in Sand Family Fortress?”
“Yes, leave that thing and scram. You actually want to buy Nine Dragon Herb with a mere hundred taels of silver!”
“Surround him, don’t let him run away!”
Soon, Ling Xiao was surrounded. It could be said that the encirclement was watertight.
Ling Xiao roughly understood the minds of these people.
The good thing they couldn’t get, others shouldn’t imagine to get it.
Ling Xiao’s cultivation base was Initial Rank Three Transcendent Realm, which was indeed powerful enough, but Sand Family Fortress was a special place. Even the appearance of Rank Four or Five Transcendent Realm martial artists was not surprising here.
There were even Rank Six Transcendent Realm martial artists here.
Only martial artists above Rank Seven were not seen.
As for those martial artists surrounding Ling Xiao, they were mostly Rank One, Rank Two and Rank Three Transcendent Realm martial artists. They believed that, with dozens of Transcendent Realm martial artists here, it was basically not hard to stop a kid with a cultivation base of Rank Three Transcendent Realm.
