Chapter 574 - 236: Spatial Turbulence, Zhantai Xinyan_3

"Miss, please don’t act rashly. This may be a misunderstanding..."

Seeing the woman suddenly attacking him and hearing her accusatory words, Chen Chang’an instantly realized something was wrong.

It was no wonder he found it odd that there were so many spirit grasses everywhere, but no powerful spiritual beasts to guard them. It turned out, he had stumbled into someone else’s herbal garden.

As for that Spirit Grass, without asking, he knew he must have taken someone else’s planted herbs.

What’s more horrifyng was that the girl attacking him exuded ancient and profound power, surrounded by flowing immortal aura. She was clearly a mature Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, with a hint of almost stepping into the level of Immortal Monarch.

What the hell was happening?

Chen Chang’an could no longer act rashly. With his current strength, he would stand no chance against a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal. This was a chilling realization!

"Humph! There’s nothing to explain! You little thief, you stole the spiritual medicine from the Qingyu Divine Mountain, that’s a fact! Are you still trying to deceive me?

Die!"

Enraged, Zhantai Xinyan didn’t pay any attention to Chen Chang’an’s explanations.

This criminal, despite having ironclad evidence against him, not only refused to confess but even attempted to deceive her!

He deserved to die!

A flash of the sword, and in the blink of an eye, the sword light was in front of Chen Chang’an, which he narrowly avoided.

After evading the attack, Chen Chang’an quickly increased the distance between him and the girl, and then attempted to explain once more.

If he really couldn’t explain, Chen Chang’an had already decided to just leave. As for this girl’s kindness, he would remember it.

However, just as Chen Chang’an was preparing to speak again, he saw that Zhantai Xinyan had suddenly stopped pursuing him.

She threw her sword to the ground, sat down, hugged her legs and buried her head in her knees, and began to sob.

She cried, and although her sobbing was soft, Chen Chang’an could still hear it.

"Ah...what?"

This left Chen Chang’an somewhat speechless.

Chen Chang’an was powerful, capable of wiping out major sects and defeating the Ancient Ling Immortal Monarch, but in the face of this scene, he felt a bit helpless.

"Miss, don’t cry. It’s just a few strands of Spirit Grass, is it really worth all this..?"

Chen Chang’an slowly approached Zhantai Xinyan, but before he could offer her more comfort, he saw her tear-streaked face suddenly jump up.

Furious, she pointed at Chen Chang’an and sobbed, "You thief, what do you know? We...we all depend on these few strands of Spirit Grass to keep Master Zhao in our sect. Without them, if Master Zhao Dan gets angry and leaves Qingyu Divine Mountain, how will the sisters on the mountain survive?"

Zhantai Xinyan’s words left Chen Chang’an even more confused. He really didn’t understand why a few strands of Spirit Grass could make it impossible for this girl’s sect to survive here.

What Chen Chang’an didn’t know was that it wasn’t just ordinary Spirit Grass that he had just consumed. It was Immortal Herbs that had been cultivated to contain a great deal of immortal power.

Immortal Herbs, weren’t they precious!

"Without a Pill Master, that’s always been our weakest point. My sister had been worried about it for many years. Now that we finally have a Pill Master to help stabilize the sect, but the immortal grass is taken away by you, a thief, I’m really angry with you!"

Zhantai Xinyan looked towards the sky, holding back tears of frustration, and once again drew her sword and pointed it at Chen Chang’an.

Looking at this scene, Chen Chang’an felt that a fight was imminent.

At this point, feeling the gradual recovery of his foundation from the nourishing internal medicines, Chen Chang’an couldn’t make any reckless moves.

Moreover, it was indeed because of his actions that Qingyu Divine Mountain was now in crisis.

He didn’t know what to do for a moment.

"Miss, put down your sword first..."

Chen Chang’an gestured to the sharp sword in Zhantai Xinyan’s hand and slowly said, "Miss, can you tell me exactly what’s troubling you? Maybe I can help..."

"You?" Zhantai Xinyan stared at Chen Chang’an in disbelief. He was in a ragged state, teetering on his feet. Clearly, he was barely hanging on.

Zhantai Xinyan assumed that Chen Chang’an was making fun of her, which further fueled her anger, "You thief, are you still trying to trick me?"

"You really think I wouldn’t dare to kill you?"

"Miss, I’m not lying to you."

"Look at this.." As Chen Chang’an faced Zhantai Xinyan’s anger, he was not upset, but simply held out his palm, showing it to Zhantai Xinyan.

At this moment, in the center of Chen Chang’an’s palm, a wisp of golden flame was rising and falling.

"Elixir Qi?!"

Upon seeing the palm that Chen Chang’an extended, Zhantai Xinyan exclaimed in surprise.

Because the Elixir Qi was only present in those who practiced alchemy!
