Chapter 977: Other People?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the bottom of the cliff, Ye Chen opened his eyes in a daze. He felt a slight headache.

All the bones in his body were creaking in pain.

He vaguely remembered that he and Shi Zun had fallen from the cliff, and his body kept sliding down the cliff.

If he was not a body refining cultivator, the consequences of such a fall would be unimaginable.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and probed his connection with the Samsara Graveyard. Everything still worked.

Little Gold was also sleeping in the Samsara Graveyard.

Other than his injuries, he was not in a bad state.

“No, there’s still the Dragonslayer Heaven Sword!”

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. He circulated his true qi and stood up abruptly after he remembered his purpose in following Shi Zun.

He did not even consume a pill and instead looked around at the unfamiliar environment.

Weeds grew everywhere, and spiritual energy surrounded them. freewёbnoνel.com

Countless boulders were scattered around, and there was a trace of blood, which had to be Shi Zun’s.

Unfortunately, Shi Zun was nowhere to be found.

There was a very long trail of blood on the ground. Shi Zun was heavily injured and should not have been able to run too far.

Ye Chen took out some pills from the Samsara Graveyard. However, just as he was about to consume them, he noticed something out of the corner of his eye and quickly headed in a certain direction.

He stopped in his tracks very quickly, and his eyes filled with shock because in front of him was an acre of medicinal herbs!

These medicinal herbs here were extremely rare, and the spiritual energy they contained was overwhelming.

The value of this acre-wide garden of medicinal herbs could not even be measured in spirit stones!

If he used these herbs to refine pills, the effects would be astonishing. How could such a barren-looking land contain such treasures?

The way the medicinal herbs were planted indicated that they had not grown wild. It was definitely someone’s handiwork!

There was no way a demonic beast like Shi Zun could have done this either. Was there someone else here at the bottom of the cliff?

Ye Chen could only think of two possibilities. One was the Han family’s ancestor, Han Yun who had experienced the ancient war.

The other possibility was that this belonged to the members of the Blood Spirit Clan trapped here.

No matter who it belonged to, Ye Chen did not care.

He did not have much respect for the Han family or the Blood Spirit Clan. In fact, had it not been for Xue Qiye’s request, he would not have entered this godforsaken place.

Ye Chen did not think too much about it, and began to carefully harvest all of the medicinal herbs and place them into the Samsara Graveyard. Each and every one of them was priceless!

He had truly stumbled upon a golden opportunity!

After a full ten minutes, Ye Chen had harvested half of the medicinal herbs and was even preparing to refine some ancient pills.

As an origin-grade alchemist, if he could use these herbs to refine an ancient pill, it would be beneficial for growth and survival in this secret realm.

Just as Ye Chen was about to start refining,?an ethereal but angry voice rang out behind him!

“Who are you? Why did you steal my family’s medicinal herbs!”

Ye Chen’s body stiffened when he heard this.

Steal?

These herbs belonged to someone?

Also, this voice seemed to belong to a girl, which was incompatible with both of his previous guesses as to who owned this herb garden.

There were other people living in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm?

F*ck!

Ye Chen turned around and saw a girl in yellow, who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. Her eyes were bright and charming, but also contained a trace of anger.

A finger was pointed at him.

“I’m asking you a question. You’re a man, right? Aren’t you ashamed? Why did you steal my family’s medicinal herbs? If I didn’t hear the commotion, you would have probably have taken them all. If Master finds out, you can forget about leaving here with your head intact!”

The girl’s tone was threatening and a little angry.

However, Ye Chen could sense the kindness and curiosity in the other party’s words.

“Did you hear me? Also, why are you here? No one has come here for many years. A thousand years? Or longer?”

The girl frowned as if she was counting something.

Ye Chen put down the herbs he was holding and cupped his hands. “I’m really sorry. I thought the herbs here grew naturally.”

“If I offend you, I’m willing to compensate you.”

The girl snorted. “I worked hard to nurture these herbs. You’ve already turned this place upside down.?How can you compensate me? How can I cook later at night?”

Cooking?

Ye Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

These priceless herbs were being used to cook dishes? This was too much of a waste.

Most importantly, these herbs did not taste good. Some of the flavors could even be said to be strange.

“I wonder if your master’s surname is Han?” Ye Chen asked in order to confirm the girl’s identity.

“That’s not my master’s surname.” The girl seemed very innocent, and she shook her head.

“Blood Spirit Clan?” Ye Chen asked again.

When the girl heard the words ‘Blood Spirit Clan’, her innocent expression instantly turned murderous. She drew a thin sword and charged at Ye Chen.

“Are you one of those bad guys from the Blood Spirit Clan? If it weren’t for you guys, we wouldn’t have been trapped here forever. Master said that if we see the Blood Spirit Clan, we are to either run or kill them!”

Ye Chen looked at the girl’s sword and did not dodge. He extended his hand and grabbed the sword.

Although he was injured, the girl’s cultivation level had not even reached the saint king realm.

When the girl saw that her sword was being held, she flew into a rage, and was about to attack again when Ye Chen released the sword and explained, “Miss, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not from the Blood Spirit Clan. I’m also a mortal enemy of the Blood Spirit Clan. I ended up in this place because I was pursued by the Blood Spirit Clan.”

The young girl looked at Ye Chen suspiciously for a few seconds before she finally put away her sword. “Those people from the Blood Spirit Clan are all old men. You are only in your twenties, so it’s impossible for you to be one of them. Also, you have mortal roots, so those annoying fellows won’t take you in as their disciple.”

Ye Chen was speechless, but at least he was certain of one thing.

Besides Han Yun and the Blood Spirit Clan, there were other people in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm!

The girl in front of him should not be a hostile party. She was even a little silly and cute. Given her behavior and words, it seemed that she probably had not interacted with anyone for a long time.

The young girl glanced at the medicinal herbs and urged, “I know you have a storage space. Return the medicinal herbs to me quickly! Otherwise I’ll tell Master!”

Ye Chen thought about it. His actions were indeed considered stealing, but once those medicinal herbs were taken out, they would lose their medicinal efficacy gradually. Furthermore, they could not be replanted.

The Samsara Graveyard was special. It could store medicinal herbs and keep them in their freshest state. If they were taken out, the value of these medicinal herbs would be greatly reduced.

The young girl was using them to make a meal, right? Perhaps he could exchange them with something from the outside world?

Ye Chen no longer hesitated and said, “Miss, how about I compensate you with some things? The medicinal herbs will lose their efficacy if I take them out, so they will be wasted. How about I owe you a favor in return for these medicinal herbs? From now on, you can ask me to do any three things.”

After saying that, Ye Chen took out some food from Huaxia.

Because of Ji Lin’s request, the Samsara Graveyard was piled up with almost a mountain of such food items.

The girl looked at the food in front of her and frowned. She was a little vigilant. Perhaps out of curiosity, she picked up a bottled drink.

“What is this?”

Ye Chen did not know how to explain. He could only say, “You’ll know after you take a sip. This is a specialty of our place.”
