Chapter 86 Follow
A thousand-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus appeared in the auction house of the Jianghu in the territory of Sichao Kingdom. The Jianghu and the courts of various countries learned of the news and began to take action.
The Spirit King of the Spirit Kingdom's Illusionary Spirit City planned to travel there with his subordinates.
Today, Yang Hualing slowly arrived at the courtyard where the people of Sujia Village lived. Her steps were light and steady, as if she carried a mysterious aura.
The moment she stepped into the courtyard, the previously noisy or quiet atmosphere seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes were drawn to her.
"Sister Yang, what brings you here?"
Yang Hualing responded to everyone, and then everyone sat down together.
She called out to Xiaoyue softly, her voice as melodious as a mountain spring.
“Xiaoyue, a thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus has appeared in the martial arts world.”
After saying that, she paused slightly, a complex look flashing in her eyes, before continuing.
"I've heard that the Tian Shan snow lotus has incredibly miraculous effects, and those who eat it can suddenly increase their power."
There's also the ability to gradually turn snow-white hair into jet-black hair, as if time has reversed.
It even has the effect of reversing aging, and even bringing the dead back to life.
Yang Hualing gazed quietly at Xiaoyue's graying hair, a feeling of indescribable tenderness welling up in her heart.
She gently placed her hand on Xiaoyue's forehead and earnestly told her about it, her eyes full of expectation and encouragement, hoping that Xiaoyue could seize this rare opportunity.
At this moment, the first to react was Xiaoman, the younger child. His big eyes sparkled with excitement, and he was so excited that he almost jumped up.
She shouted, "What? There's such a miraculous medicine? Sister Xiaoyue, let's go take a look! Maybe we'll have a chance to get it!"
Several children, including Shui'er and Shizi, chimed in, their faces full of anticipation.
Immediately afterwards, Daya also spoke up firmly.
"Xiaoyue, we must go and participate in this rare auction."
Whether or not we ultimately obtain that Tian Shan snow lotus, we'll try our luck. For you, we'll do everything in our power to achieve it.
The other slightly older children also nodded, indicating their willingness to go along.
Xiaoyue sat there, listening quietly to everyone's words, feeling their heartfelt care and love. A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and she was deeply moved.
She knew that so many relatives and friends were willing to give everything for her, and this affection made her feel incredibly precious, which also strengthened her determination to overcome her illness.
To be honest, Xiaoyue herself wanted to get it when she heard the news, but she also knew it wouldn't be that easy.
"Alright, let's try our luck. If we can get it, that would be great. Even if we don't, it'll be a good opportunity to broaden our horizons and travel around."
"We have to go this time no matter what. I believe those people from the Shadow Organization in Qin will definitely go too."
"I will definitely seek revenge on them for what happened to Su Family Village."
Upon hearing Shanzi's words, everyone felt even more determined, as if they had made up their minds to go this time.
After everyone discussed it carefully, Shizi and Xiaoman, Shui'er and Xiaohe, and Yuan'er were chosen.
They were just ruthlessly abandoned by these big guys.
Upon hearing this news, Shi Zi immediately became indignant and angrily retorted to Daya and the others.
"No, I absolutely disagree. I'm going to seek revenge on the Shadow Organization too."
Xiaoman followed suit: "Yes, that's right, we must go together."
But Shanzi patiently persuaded them: "You five must listen to me. This time we're not going to seek revenge on them, but to the auction house in the territory of Sichao Kingdom."
You guys are still quite young, and the journey is long, so you have to stay here and protect everyone.
The remaining uncles and aunts in the village all depend on you for protection.
They argued back and forth, and the scene became quite lively for a while.
Afu also advised, "You are still too young. Going to Sichao Kingdom is indeed too far. You should stay here and cultivate in peace, so as to protect everyone."
"What if those Shadows hadn't gone to Sichao this time? Would we still have some of us left here to protect everyone?"
However, in the end, the younger ones had no choice but to obey the arrangements of the older ones and stay to protect everyone.
Yang Hualing then went to report to the Empress about the plot and dialogue regarding Da Ya and the others wanting to go to the auction house with them.
Yang Hualing arrived at the Empress's palace and respectfully bowed.
"Greetings, Empress."
"No need for formalities, rise. Hua Lingxing, what brings you here?"
"Your Majesty, Lin Daya and the others have expressed their wish to accompany you to the auction house."
The Empress frowned slightly and asked, "Why do they have this idea?"
Yang Hualing replied, "Da Ya and the others learned about the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus and wanted to try their best to treat Xiao Yue, so they thought of going with everyone."
The Empress pondered for a moment, then said, "The auction hall is an important place. They don't have enough strength and experience, so I'm afraid they might be in danger."
Yang Hualing nodded and said, "The Empress's concerns are not without reason, but Daya and the others are quite skilled in martial arts. I believe they will not be a burden to everyone."
After considering for a moment, the Empress said, "In that case, let them come along. I will also keep an eye on their safety."
Yang Hualing accepted the order and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will go and inform them to set off together tomorrow."
The Empress further instructed, "Tell them that all arrangements must be made according to our instructions, and they must not act on their own initiative."
Yang Hualing solemnly said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will inform them."
Afterwards, Yang Hualing left the palace to inform Da Ya and the others. They were all very happy to learn that they could go to the auction house together.
Daya said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Yang Hualing. We will definitely follow your arrangements."
Yang Hualing smiled and said, "Alright, get ready, we'll head to the auction house tomorrow."
The next day, Da Ya and her companions rode horses with the subordinates of Huanlingyuan, while the Empress sat in a carriage.
This journey from Ling Kingdom to Si Chao Kingdom will take four months. Their experiences during these four months may be colorful, but they may also encounter various difficulties.
Along the way, Daya and her companions not only had to protect the Empress's safety, but also had to deal with various unexpected situations.
The group of people traveled around, stopping at each small town or county they visited.
They traveled for two months, enduring countless storms and hardships; the long journey seemed endless.
Finally, after a slow journey, they arrived at the border between the Ling Kingdom and the Si Dynasty, a boundary that seemed to divide two worlds, carrying a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
The group decided to spend the night in a small town in the Ling Kingdom, where they would rest and recuperate before embarking on their journey again tomorrow.
As the group slowly entered the town, they immediately felt its tranquility and simplicity.
The town was indeed small, and the streets were rather narrow. There were only a few scattered pedestrians, a stark contrast to the bustling Phantom City.
Just then, the townspeople saw a group of people dressed in magnificent clothes and riding tall horses swaggering into the town.
The magnificent decorations shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Upon seeing this, the people, like startled rabbits, hurriedly scrambled to both sides.
They were afraid of accidentally offending these distinguished guests and causing themselves unnecessary trouble.
After all, such distinguished individuals are not people one can easily meet on ordinary days.
If you accidentally offend them and end up getting beaten to death, you won't have anywhere to seek justice.
The group continued walking forward and soon arrived at a small restaurant that looked reasonably decent.
The waiter, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed the arrival of this group of "distinguished guests." He felt a surge of nervousness, but managed to maintain a calm demeanor.
He cautiously approached the crowd, smiling broadly as he asked.
"Distinguished guests, are you here for a meal or to stay at an inn?"
There was a hint of unease and caution in his voice.
Hua Lingxing, who was standing at the very front, slightly raised his head, a hint of indifference flashing in his eyes.
They replied, "Please provide us with some excellent rooms, and also take our horses to be well fed."
His words were concise and clear, yet they carried an undeniable air of authority.
"Alright, esteemed guests, please come in and follow me."
The waiter quickly responded, his smile widening. He then turned and busied himself arranging various matters, secretly praying that nothing would go wrong and that these distinguished guests would be satisfied.
