Chapter 1298 - 1278: The Unfillable Chasm?
After expressing his willingness to submit to Ye Huan, Yue Buqun clasped his hands and said, "Young Master Ye, our injuries have recovered here, and we still need to go back and check the casualties. Moreover, Miss Ling Shuang’s condition is not very good. Please go and take care of her. We will leave first."Ye Huan nodded, "Okay, no need to see us off."
The coalition of the Ancient Martial Realm, led by Yue Buqun, left one after another.
...
The villa of Cloud Peak Palace is situated at the summit of a mountain, on the outskirts of the Capital City.
This villa was built five years ago, during a time when mountain view homes were popular and selling well. However, because this villa was too far from the city, requiring over an hour-long drive, many people came to see it, but no one was willing to buy it. The developers were almost begging for someone to purchase a house.
Therefore, Ye Huan was able to buy this place for emergency use within a few minutes.
This is a relatively small villa with only two floors, with a guest room on the first floor and a master bedroom and a children’s room on the second floor. The overall luxuriousness and style of this villa are worlds apart from the Tingxiang Pavilion, but it was more than enough for emergencies.
"How do you feel? Any discomfort?"
In a small room on the first floor, Ye Huan sat on a small stool by the bed, gently asking Ling Shuang, who was lying under the covers, her face pale and frail.
Ling Shuang shook her head, "Nothing particularly uncomfortable, just like last time, my body feels weak and my spirits are low."
"Try eating this." Ye Huan took out half of a prepared 3000-year-old ginseng.
Seeing this, Ling Shuang’s eyes lit up!
Like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, she grabbed it, not even peeling off the skin, and began devouring it!
"Raw? Is that okay?" Liu Tianyun asked doubtfully from the side.
"It’s fine, her physique is special."
Ye Huan smiled, then handed over half of a 3000-year-old extreme cold herb.
Just like before, Ling Shuang’s eyes gleamed with the hungry gaze of a wolf as soon as she saw it.
She grabbed it and started gobbling it up!
Soon after, a rosy hue appeared on her face, her hair turned shinier and blacker, and her mental state improved significantly.
"Feeling much better now, is there any more?"
Ling Shuang looked at Ye Huan with anticipation.
"There is more, but I can’t give it to you right now. Eating them raw wastes their potency; only by making them into soups can the ginseng and extreme cold herb’s medicinal power be fully extracted and utilized. Eating them raw now is just to tide you over temporarily. In the evening, I’ll make some soup to satisfy your craving."
"Okay."
Ling Shuang nodded obediently.
Not referring to herself as "this sovereign," she looked just like a porcelain doll without any aggressiveness.
"Miss Ling Shuang, thank you so much this time. Your timely intervention gave Ye Huan the time to counterattack and saved more than half of his life." Liu Tianyun looked at Ling Shuang with soft eyes, gently holding her delicate hands like jade.
"It’s nothing, in the end, he also saved my life."
Ling Shuang glanced at Ye Huan’s arm, pierced with a deep sword wound, with a complicated look in her eyes, she sighed, "What a shame, I never thought one day this sovereign would be so embarrassed that I would need a doorman to save my life!"
Ye Huan’s face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, "I’m not your doorman!"
He said grumpily, then continued with the main topic: "By the way, how did you suddenly recover from a Divine General to an Extreme Divine King?"
"I was wandering in a dream just now when I suddenly sensed a formidable presence around the villa. I immediately got up to check the situation and, through the window, saw that old dog Di Lunhui. I immediately thought it was dire and went to the third floor of the villa. After some searching, I consumed a 3000-year-old ginseng and extreme cold herb, and with the help of their potency, I forcibly boosted my power. I never expected that these precious herbs could only help maintain my Extreme Divine King power for less than ten seconds."
Even Ling Shuang herself furrowed her brows, feeling that the situation was quite tricky.
Ye Huan had a bewildered look as well.
It must be said, Ling Shuang truly is a "two-legged gold-eating beast"!
The potency of a 3000-year-old ginseng and extreme cold herb is incredibly powerful, hardly needing an explanation.
Such treasures are what every Ancient Martial Artist in the Ancient Martial Realm, including the top bigwigs, longs for!
Yet, these two top-quality herbs aren’t even enough for her to sustain for ten seconds.
And after the medicinal effect faded, her power swiftly waned, leaving her weak once again.
This demonstrates how vast a chasm Ling Shuang has within her body.
Ye Huan vaguely felt that even feeding Ling Shuang ten stocks of 3000-year-old ginseng wouldn’t fill one-thirtieth of the chasm inside her.
This is problematic indeed.
Finding these twenty or so stocks of 3000-year-old herbs had already been remarkably challenging.
If using them all up can’t fill up the chasm inside her, where could he find so many rare and top-grade medicinal herbs?
After pondering over it, Ye Huan seemed to have thought of something and his eyes suddenly brightened, "Got it!"
He took a 3000-year-old herb, went to the villa courtyard, and randomly found a flower pot, removed the potted plant in it, then took out Huaxia Tianshan Treasure Lotus, tore off a petal, and placed it deep in the soil of the flower pot. He then took a stock of ginseng missing its upper half, just the bottom half remaining, aligned its root with the petal, and filled in the soil!
Half an hour later, observing the cross-section at the head of the ginseng closing and growing 0.1 millimeters upward, Ye Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief!
As he had guessed.
The medicinal power of the 5000-year-old Huaxia Tianshan Treasure Lotus is extraordinarily strong, not only healing human injuries but also healing damaged herbs, helping the herbs "recover their injuries"!
Although 0.1 millimeters isn’t much, over time, this ginseng will surely grow back to its intact state!
Moreover, after the ginseng fully recovers, cutting off the upper half for Ling Shuang or Liu Tianyun to consume, and planting it back, the ginseng will slowly restore again under the effect of the lotus petal.
This way, it’s almost equivalent to having an unlimited supply of 3000-year-old ginseng!
Not only that, but the newly grown 0.1 millimeters of the half ginseng seems to contain a bit of the lotus’s medicinal power, making its effects even better, providing significant benefits in beauty, skincare, longevity, and rejuvenation.
There’s now a way to fill the immense chasm inside Ling Shuang!
