Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 2238: Solution

Zhao Hai took a deep breath to calm his mood. Then he waved his hand, causing the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb to fly out of the box and land onto an open space. Future Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herbs will be planted in a similar area.

After planting the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb, Zhao Hai looked at Laura and the others and bitterly smiled, “No wonder the Moonfall Palace went all out investigating. It’s a mature Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. The price of one is too high. Anyone who gets their hand on it will not be willing to give it up. This might be a huge problem.”

Zhao Hai was telling the truth. The Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb’s value was too high. While the Moonfall Palace wouldn’t dare announce its existence, it was also impossible for them to just give it up. Because of this, they will certainly sift through everyone involved in its disappearance.

Laura knit her brows and said, “With the Moonfall Palace returning to Demonheart City, they won’t just leave the gang off. Although you are already quite strong, this matter will cause some disturbance. Your status might be exposed. Even if it won’t do any good for the Tyrant Blade Sect and the Long Clan, we still have to deal with this matter carefully.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then after thinking for a while, he said, “We need to discuss this matter with someone, I’ll go and meet Master.”

Laura nodded and said, “You might as well. But you have to bring the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. Cai’er, prepare a plot of land to plant a few Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb seeds.”

Zhao Hai replied, “It’s fine, Masters might not care about the herb. I’ll just talk to them about it. They don’t necessarily have to do anything. I reckon we need the Long Clan to solve this matter.”

Laura nodded, “The influence of the Tyrant Blade Sect won’t reach here, but the Long Clan can. If the clan is willing to come forward and help, then the problem will be solved.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he gave the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb one more glance before appearing in the Tyrant Blade Sect. Although the sect was preparing for war, the Yin Yang Elders didn’t have many responsibilities. Because of this, the two elders were quite free.

The two elders were currently in their rooms, meditating. They didn’t sleep even though it was already evening.

Suddenly, the two elders opened their eyes. They felt that Zhao Hai had returned. They immediately stood up and went to the living room. Just as they entered, they heard Zhao Hai from outside, “Disciple Zhao Hai is here to visit Masters.”

The Yin Elder smiled and said, “Come in.” Zhao Hai nodded and then purged the door to enter.

After entering the room, Zhao Hai cupped his fist to the Yin Yang Elders. The Yin Elder waved him over to sit down and then asked, “Why did you come back? Did something happen?”

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, “I didn’t expect something this significant to happen when the Battle Corpse Sect sent me to the True Spirit Realm.”

When the Yin Yang Elders heard this, they also couldn’t help but shake their heads. Zhao Hai’s situation was far from what they anticipated. They didn’t expect Zhao Hai to return to the True Spirit Realm under the orders of the Battle Corpse Sect. They even wanted Zhao Hai to join the Forbidden Path Sect. This wasn’t necessarily bad for Zhao Hai, but it wasn’t good for him either. 

Zhao Hai snuck into the underground world with the purpose of getting information and seeing if there were any changes with the Ghost Cultivators.

But now, Zhao Hai was back in the True Spirit Realm without any reasons to return to the underground world. This meant that he couldn’t collect information about the Ghost Cultivators. 

Zhao Hai sighed and said, “I suddenly obtained a treasure, the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. Some people are currently tracking it down. Although they don’t know that it ended up in my hands, I was part of the group that escorted it. I’m afraid they will check my body thoroughly.”

The Yin Yang Elders couldn’t help but stare when they heard this. Then their expressions changed as they exclaimed, “Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb? You have a Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb?”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he waved his hand, taking out a jade box made with wood-attribute exotic jade from his sleeve. Then he handed the box over to the Yin Yang Elders. Like Laura said, he had to take the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb that he planted out. Fortunately, everything in the Space was under Zhao Hai’s control, so there was no damage to the herb.

The Yin Elder received the box that Zhao Hai handed over. In one glance, the Yin Elder immediately knew that the box was made from wood-attribute exotic jade. He wasn’t shocked by this, the Tyrant Blade Sect also has its own stockpile of exotic jades. Carefully opening the box, the Yin Yang Elders were immediately hit with the fragrance of the herb.

The Yin Yang Elders paused, then they sighed. Closing the box, the Yin Elder handed it back to Zhao Hai. Then Zhao Hai said, “Master, I heard that the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb has a calming effect on the mind and spirit. You should take it to a Pill Master to make it into medicine. This way, you could suppress your killing intent.”

The Yin Yang Elders stared. Then a trace of emotion passed through their eyes. But the Yin Elder still handed the box to Zhao Hai as he said, “The biggest use of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb is still detoxification. It only has the side effect of calming the mind and spirit. It’s not very useful to us. You better keep it for yourself.” Zhao Hai didn’t fight it as he put the box away. Ｒ𝐚ŊŎ𐌱ÊS

The Yin Elder looked at Zhao Hai and asked, “How did you get your hands on it? Who is looking for it?”

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and then told the story to the two elders. Of course, Zhao Hai didn’t mention his usage of liquid silver and he just found another excuse. He said that he had an insect following Wang Da and then he got the herb after Wang Da died. Listening to Zhao Hai’s story, the Yin Yang Elders smiled bitterly. They didn’t expect Zhao Hai to be so lucky that he would obtain a Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb from a random mission.

The Yang Elder nodded and said, “I also heard about the Moonfall Palace. They seem to be founded by an Elder of the Forbidden Path Sect. They hold quite some influence in the sect’s domain. With them investigating this matter, they certainly wouldn’t let you off. Those Demon Cultivators aren’t amiable people. You don’t want to be in their eyesight. The best solution for you is to leave Demonheart City and return to the sect. Or you can return to the Long Clan so that they won’t be able to track you down.”

Zhao Hai sighed, then he smiled bitterly and said, “If I disappear suddenly, the Battle Corpse Sect and the Ghost Cultivators will be chasing after me. When the time comes, the Long Clan and the Tyrant Blade Sect might be pulled in. This will only make the matter more complicated. I can only find a way to join the Forbidden Path Sect. Only in this way can I get more trust from the Ghost Cultivators, and I can also get more insider news.”

The Yin Yang Elders were silent. They knew that what Zhao Hai said was true. If Zhao Hai returned to the Tyrant Blade Sect or the Long Clan, then once the Battle Corpse Sect or the Ghost Cultivators discover his traces, the Tyrant Blade Sect or the Long Clan would become involved. The Tyrant Blade Sect would gain another enemy while the Long Clan would lose their aloof status. Moreover, the Ghost Cultivators might be able to use this opportunity to attack.

Zhao Hai looked at the two elders and smiled, “Master, you don’t need to worry. I’m also prepared to tell the Long Clan about this matter. Although the Moonfall Palace holds quite some influence in the Forbidden Path Sect’s territory, the Long Clan is also influential in this area. Perhaps the Long Clan has a solution for me.”

The Yin Yang Elders nodded, then the Yin Elder sighed and said, “Right, go and see if the Long Clan has a solution. If the Long Clan can’t solve it, then you need to tell us. We Old Folks can still move and eradicate the Moonfall Palace. But we can only use this move for last since it would attract the Forbidden Path Sect’s attention. We still have to listen to the Long Clan’s opinion on this matter.”

Zhao Hai nodded, “Don’t worry Master, we won’t reach that point. I’ll go to the Long Clan first. We need to resolve this issue as soon as possible.”

The Yin Yang Elders nodded. Then Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards the two before vanishing. The Yon Elder looked at the empty chair and sighed, “I don’t know if Little Hai is lucky or unlucky. He’s lucky to obtain a rare treasure, but he’s now facing trouble.” 

The Yang Elder smiled bitterly and said, “Most importantly, he even came back to the True Spirit Realm with the status of a Ghost Cultivator. No matter how we look at it, his luck is full of twists.” 

The Yin Elder couldn’t help but agree. Then the two went silent. Although they seemed to be joking around, they knew that Zhao Hai was in a precarious position. Once his identity gets exposed, he would be under constant threat. He might even be assassinated. It can be said that Zhao Hai was walking on a narrow path, with one side having a mountain of swords while the clothes side a sea of fire. He needs to take each step with caution or else he would fall.

At this time, Zhao Hai appeared in Coiling Dragon City. Majority of the residents have already withdrawn to their houses to rest. Zhao Hai wasn’t bothered by it and went directly to Long Tian’s residence. Once he was outside, Zhao Hai cupped his fist and said, “Elder Long, it’s Zhao Hai.”

Long Tian’s voice immediately replied, “Little Hai, why are you back at this time? Come in. Did something happen?”

Zhao Hai interred the courtyard. As he sat down in front of Long Tian, he smiled bitterly and said, “I’m in trouble. I’m here to ask Elder for advice.”

Long Tian stared, then he smiled faintly and said, “What’s the problem? Tell me.”

Zhao Hai replied, “I managed to get my hands on a treasure, a Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb.” Then he explained the entire process save some of the methods that he couldn’t reveal.

As he listened to Zhao Hai, Long Tian couldn’t help but stare. To be honest, Long Tian didn’t care about the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. He has seen much more valuable treasures. However, he also knew how much trouble it would cause now that it was in Zhao Hai’s hands.

As he looked at Zhao Hai, Long Tian frowned and said, “What are you planning to do? How do you want us to help you?”

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, “I still don’t know, so I’m here to ask you. The Moonfall Palace will certainly reach me for investigation, and they definitely won’t let me go. I cannot expose my identity, so I might not be able to return for some time. This is what I’m worried about.”

Long Tian smiled bitterly. To be honest, he also doesn’t know how to solve this issue. If they went for the hard approach, the Long Clan could easily get rid of the Moonfall Palace. However, just like what the Yin Yang Elders said, it would attract the attention of the Forbidden Path Sect. After all, an elder of the sect was behind the Moonfall Palace. 

But if they didn’t do the hard approach, how could they save Zhao Hai? Long Tian knitted his brows for a moment before he thought of something, “Who else knows of Wang Da’s death?”

Zhao Hai looked at Long Tian in confusion as he answered, “Nobody. He died alone in a cave. I believe besides me, nobody is certain that he’s dead.”

Long Tian’s eyes lit up as he added, “Then how about his corpse? How did you get rid of it? Can it be found?”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “No. His corpse has been turned into an undead. As long as I don’t take it out, nobody would know that he’s dead.”

Long Tian nodded, “That’s good. We can still save your situation. I’ll have someone secretly spread rumours tomorrow that the Moonfall Palace has obtained a Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb. I believe that once this information gets out, the Moonfall Palace’s actions would slow down. They won’t be in a mood to deal with you. Even if others know that it has been stolen, they wouldn’t think that you would have it. They would suspect the missing Wang Da. The Blood Knife Gang should be minimally affected.”

Zhao Hai stared. Now he understood why Long Tian was curious about Wang Da’s death. As long as Wang Da doesn’t appear, then everyone would think that the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Herb was with him. Nobody would suspect that a Soul Fusion stage cultivator of the Blood Knife Gang would have it. As the matter stands, the problem was solved.

Old ginger is indeed spicier. One move has solved Zhao Hai’s problem. However, this method also carries some danger. The Forbidden Path Sect isn’t a kind-hearted organization. They would probably vent their anger on the Blood Knife Gang. But strictly speaking, this was the best case scenario for Zhao Hai.
