Chapter 310: The Journey to Qingluan Manor

"Master, who is it?"

"Ma Hongjun."

Xu Feng frowned when he heard this name.

Clearly, he was somewhat displeased with it.

"Master, it is him."

Bai He roughly glanced through the contents of the letter.

In fact, it was quite simple.

It was just a request asking Bai He to help with something.

Ma Hongjun had originally been a disciple of Qingluan Manor.

Something had happened within Qingluan Manor and he hoped Bai He could go there to help resolve it.

"Master, what does he want from you? When Senior Brother left, he specifically instructed me to take good care of you and ensure that you do not leave Lingguang Sect even a single step. He said he was going to help you find medicine and would return very soon."

As he spoke, Xu Feng became increasingly worried and asked again.

"Master, are you sick? Even Elder Yao cannot treat you? Why do you still need to go elsewhere to find medicine?"

With the Tree’s Coreflame, cultivating any medicinal herb was not a problem.

However, even with it, some herbs still required an extremely long time to grow.

This was also one of the main reasons why Ye Shiyuan went out to search for Qingluan Lotus Seed.

Qingluan Lotus Seed actually had a deep connection with Qingluan Manor, though it was ultimately only a legend.

It was said that Qingluan Immortal Lady was the founding ancestor of Qingluan Manor.

In those days, Qingluan Manor was extremely prosperous, and Lingguang Sect and Qinghai Sect did not even exist yet.

It was considered an ancient and prestigious sect.

Although Qingluan Manor had now declined and could no longer be compared to its former glory.

Qingluan Lotus Seed was an extremely mysterious medicinal plant.

Its growing conditions were extremely harsh and the number of plants in existence was less than a hundred.

Only a few people had ever been fortunate enough to see it.

Qingluan Immortal Lady was the first person in this world to ever see Qingluan Lotus Seed and she greatly admired it, hence she named it after the sect.

However, there had never been any rumor that Qingluan Manor actually possessed this lotus.

Since Ye Shiyuan had already gone to search for it, Bai He could not just sit and wait for death either.

After all, this life belonged to him.

If he did not value it, how could he expect others to value it for him?

Even if he survived this time, there would still be a next time.

He put the letter away and Xu Feng also stood up.

"Master, forget about him."

"No, Xiao Feng. Pack up. We are going to Qingluan Manor."

Xu Feng looked at Bai He in shock.

"Master, are you sure? We just came back. You should be resting properly, or at least focusing on cultivation."

"Right, do you know where Shiyuan went?"

Xu Feng shook his head.

"I do not know, Master. Did he not tell you? I thought he already told you."

At that time, Bai He’s mood had been extremely poor as if the world was about to end.

Naturally, he had not thought so much about it.

As for where Ye Shiyuan went to find Qingluan Lotus Seed, he had of course not asked.

And now...

She pondered for a moment.

Could Ye Shiyuan also have gone to Qingluan Manor?

"Master? Are we still going to Qingluan Manor?" Xu Feng asked cautiously.

Bai He replied, "Of course. So, hurry up and pack up. We leave tomorrow."

"Alright then, Master."

Xu Feng had already tried to persuade Bai He, but Bai He still insisted on going.

When Ye Shiyuan returned, he would have an explanation.

Moreover, what Bai He intended to do was something that even if Ye Shiyuan were here, he probably would not be able to stop.

"Host, did you not say that Qingluan Manor does not have Qingluan Lotus Seed?"

After Xu Feng left Bai He’s room, Mo Zhu finally asked.

Bai He pressed his lips together and sat down.

"Let us go and take a look first. It has already been so long since Qingluan Lotus Seed appeared."

If they did not search in Qingluan Manor, then where else could they find it?

After informing Yao Xiangli about his plan to go to Qingluan Manor, Bai He set out the next day with Xu Feng.

The two of them arrived at the mountainside, where they saw a stone stele.

On it were written the words forbidding the use of spiritual power.

So Bai He and Xu Feng could only climb step by step up the mountain.

"Master, how long have we been walking? Why have we still not seen the gate of Qingluan Manor?"

Normally, they would fly with swords or use spells to travel freely.

Bai He had almost forgotten how long it had been since he last climbed a mountain.

Doing it occasionally really was exhausting.

Bai He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Who knows what rules Qingluan Manor has. We could clearly use spiritual power to easily go up the mountain, so why must we walk on foot?"

Just as Bai He finished speaking, someone suddenly flew down and landed right in front of him and Xu Feng.

Bai He widened his eyes, not because he was frightened, but because he truly could not understand.

Why could this person use spiritual power, while he could not?

The newcomer looked to be around twenty years old, a very cute young girl.

Before he could even speak, Xu Feng already said angrily, "Why can you use spiritual power?"

"Of course I can use spiritual power?" the girl blinked her eyes, looking a little pitiful.

Bai He glared at Xu Feng.

Why was he being so fierce?

Was he not afraid of scaring the girl?

"Miss, could you please tell me, why can you use spiritual power, while the stone tablet below clearly says that spiritual power is forbidden?"

The girl suddenly realized.

"Oh, you mean that stone stele. It is probably some trick by Senior Brother Ma Hongjun. It is just meant to deceive people."
