Chapter 938 This Is It
Gao Ge has seen Shuibao’s explosive power and speed.
Hence, it is understandable that Xie Zhuang and Xie Tong got killed by Shuibao.
It’s not out of the question that a cultivator at the realm of Master may be killed by Shuibao off guard.
This is a rare beast but it is extraordinary.
Besides, Shuibao can do more than that.
As the name Shuibao implies, it must be quite something in the water. Even Gao Ge doesn’t dare to say he can defeat it.
Therefore, on second thought, it’s not surprising at all.
Staring at Shuibao’s facial expression, Gao Ge snorts and says, “Rest assured. I won’t maltreat you.”
Hearing Gao Ge’s answer, Shuibao feels satisfied and then leans over Gao Ge’s shoulder, mounting the high horse.
“Ahem, Sovereign Gao, have you solved the problem?” Xie Jue asks.
Gao Ge feels that Xie Jue’s question is meaningless. If Gao Ge hadn’t solved the problem, how could he stand in front of them? However, he still has to show some respect for Xie Jue. After all, Xie Jue is the Xie Family’s master and treats Gao Ge well. So, he answers with a nod, “Yes.”
“Good. Shall we leave now?” Xie Jue says.
Gao Ge turns around and takes a look at Shao Shuai. Shao Shuai laughs, “Anyway, I’ve found the thing I want.”
......
Gao Ge nods.
Shao Shuai enters the sea of herbs to find the fire of herbs.
Shao Shuai hasn’t found the fire of herbs, but now that he has got the fiery horse’s core, he has kind of completed his task.
If the core can’t work, it must be kismet.
The Xie Family’s task is to pick herbs. The herbs found in Shuibao’s cave are enough for the Xie Family.
In the past, it was not bad to continue staying in the sea of herbs.
However, it’s different now.
The entrance to the sea of herbs may be closed anytime.
Although the sea of herbs is a good place to elevate one’s cultivation speed, cultivators won’t be willing to spend their whole life here.
“My job is to keep you company. Since you’re decided to leave, just leave,” Gao Ge says with a smile.
“OK. Let’s go back now,” Xie Jue says.
As to Xie Tong and Xie Zhuang on the ground, he doesn’t take a glance at them.
After all, they are dead.
It’s actually pointless to bury them.
It won’t be long before they are dug out and eaten by beasts.
Moreover, the situation in the sea of herbs is so special.
If one stays any longer, he will be in more danger.
Gao Ge has taken a few steps forward when he suddenly hears the instrument spirit’s voice.
“Your herbs are all gone.”
“What?” Gao Ge is taken aback and immediately stops to enter the space of his star map. Instantly, he puts on a shocked look. The herbs he has picked in the sea of herbs before are all gone now.
It’s like...
They are all stolen.
Oh no, there’s a thief?
Gao Ge is so astounded.
These herbs are of little use to him.
Yet, they can be of use to the disciples of the Star Sect.
They can be sold to the Xie Family or the Shao Family.
There can’t be a thief.
Very quickly, he finds out the ringleader.
The Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting in his body has become a lot brighter than before. It absorbs the power of stars a lot faster.
“Is it the star map?” Gao Ge thinks with a frown.
Interestingly, the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting only swallows the herbs Gao Ge collected from the sea of herbs. The Heavenly Lotus Root Xie Fangyou gave him and the herbs he took out of the Ghost Sect are all fine.
“It seems that the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting is only interested in the herbs in the sea of herbs,” Gao Ge says.
He doesn’t know why the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting would swallow the herbs he picked from the sea of herbs, but his instinct tells him that it’s definitely not a bad thing.
“Master Xie, Shao Shuai, you two get out,” Gao Ge says.
“Umm?” Shao Shuai is taken aback and asks, “You don’t go out now?”
“Yeah, I’m going to continue picking some herbs,” Gao Ge says with a smile.
Shao Shuai is somewhat confused.
Xie Jue and Lu Baishuang are both confused.
Gao Ge hasn’t looked interested in the herbs in the sea of herbs since he entered this place.
It’s really weird that he suddenly claims to stay and look for the herbs.
“I’ll go with you,” Xie Zhuolian says.
Although she doesn’t know why Gao Ge wants to stay, she’s unwilling to leave him behind and go away alone.
Noticing that Gao Ge wants to decline her, Xie Zhuolian hastens to say, “You know little about herbs. I’ll stay and help identify the herbs.”
Gao Ge thinks about it and nods with a smile, “Thank you.”
Xie Zhuolian hurriedly shakes her head, her eyes glistening differently.
She’ll be happy as long as she can help Gao Ge.
“I’ll stay too,” Shao Shuai says, “Good. I’ll swallow the core and see if I can form the fire of herbs. If I can’t, I’ll continue looking for it.”
“Shao Shuai...”
“Enough. Don’t reject me. I’m doing this for myself, not for you,” Shao Shuai says with disgruntlement.
Gao Ge has to agree with a bitter smile.
“Grandpa, you leave first,” Xie Zhuolian says to Xie Jue, “We’ll be careful. We won’t meet any danger.”
Xie Jue hesitates.
Gao Ge says, “Master Xie, I came here with you, but now, it’s my decision to stay here. If you don’t leave, I’ll only think that my task isn’t completed.”
Xie Jue laughs and seems to figure out something. He nods, “In this case, we’ll wait for you outside. We can take the opportunity to sort out the herbs. Besides, it’s not good for me to meddle in the young people’s matter.”
Lu Baishuang has to stay with Xie Jue and protects the latter well.
After Xie Jue and Lu Baishuang leave, Gao Ge continues picking herbs.
With Xie Zhuolian’s help, they gather herbs quickly. Soon, the night has fallen.
“We’ll get out tomorrow afternoon.” Gao Ge takes a glance at the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting in his body. It has slowed down swallowing herbs. It should be more or less enough if they pick some more.
“Hopefully, you won’t fail me,” Gao Ge says to the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting inwardly.
Of course, he can’t get any response.
When they entered the sea of herbs, Gao Ge felt as if something was waiting for him in the sea of herbs.
When he realizes the Shennong Tasting 100 Herbs Painting has swallowed his herbs, he feels as if a burden were lifted off his heart.
This is it.
He can’t be wrong!
