Chapter 214: Departure
The "intelligence" that the Blood Skull Grandmaster is about to bring back to the Blood Soul Holy Sect, which will then relay it to other extraordinary forces, or the Cloud Falcon Demon Lord's upcoming report to the Myriad Demon Emperor, concerns the development of the Blood Soul Holy Sect's "Soul Control Technique"...
Gu Heng was unaware of any of this.
He simply spent yet another ordinary night.
In the morning, after confirming that everything was packed and the clinic had been thoroughly cleaned, Gu Heng and Qin Yiyao set off.
He did one last check of the clinic, then took out the old lamp that had been gathering dust in the corner.
Jian Xuan floated out from within.
For the first time, Gu Heng saw the appearance of the ghost who called himself "Purple Sword Master"—it was human-like, not a hazy ball of light.
It has to be said that this guy is actually quite heroic and refined, and he does have some "real person" demeanor. But after all, he is a ghost, so Gu Heng thinks that his appearance is alright. At least he is not disheveled and covered in blood.
If he wanted to, he might even be able to transform into a vengeful ghost.
After all, ghosts are meant to scare people.
A ghost that isn't scary is less frightening than a person.
"Old Xuan, I'll have to trouble you to watch over the house for me."
Gu Heng patted the lamp.
"Don't worry," Jian Xuan said. "No one can break into this clinic. Anyone who dares to step in will only face death."
Young Master Gu was leaving, leaving him to guard this place, which Jian Xuan naturally took seriously.
After all, this clinic is an absolute treasure trove, a sacred place! If it were to be defiled by some scoundrel, would he, the Purple Sword True Man, still have any face left?
It can't be!
"Haha, if you can really do it."
Gu Heng didn't take his words to heart.
Jian Xuan, that ghost, doesn't really have the ability to kill people, but he can scare people to death. However, those thieves who sneak into empty doors are generally quite bold.
But it doesn't matter, since there are basically no valuables in the clinic anyway, and all the money is with Gu Heng, so breaking in won't yield anything.
"That's settled then, I'll take the little girl and leave now."
Gu Heng greeted them and then closed the clinic door.
The little silver cat jumped onto his shoulder and then lay down.
Of course, the cat has to be brought along too.
Otherwise, by the time he gets back, the body might already be rotting. "Xiao Xi, I'm going to have to trouble you to come with me on this long journey again."
Gu Heng took out a sugar pill, and the cat stuck out its tongue and snatched it away.
This cat is easy to raise, but it's not friendly to strangers.
"Master, shouldn't we be going?"
Qin Yiyao was waiting at the door. She was dressed in a light blue and white outfit, and her hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, revealing her slender and long neck. She looked very delicate. Gu Heng didn't know if he was mistaken, but he felt that Qin Yiyao had changed a lot.
There's a lot more to it than meets the eye.
She also changed her sword. She was comfortable using the previous top-grade "Cold Moon" sword, but it wasn't strong enough.
This time, Qin Yiyao deliberately chose a sacred-grade sword named "Frost Sky" from the small house in the backyard.
Even with an Emperor-grade weapon, Qin Yiyao still couldn't use it.
The weapon spirits of the Emperor-grade divine weapons are still too powerful and very picky about their masters. Qin Yiyao cannot make them obey her yet, but only for now.
She's not in a hurry.
"Yes, have you made all the arrangements for President Feng?"
Their trip to the capital will probably take at least a month, maybe longer.
As for the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop, they certainly couldn't forget about it. After all, they had a partnership with Feng Wuxin, who provided them with medicine. They couldn't just cut off the supply after they left.
"It's all settled. I've also given them Master's prescription."
Qin Yiyao answered softly.
The recipe for "Golden Spirit Liquid" is actually somewhat confidential, but it doesn't matter if it's given to Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop.
They only want to deepen their cooperation, and Qin Yiyao can also take this opportunity to continue her unfinished journey from her previous life when the time is right. Feng Wuxin's ambition is also considerable.
She was kicked out of the Feng family, and her only thought was to one day fight her way back. Of course, to do that, she needed allies.
Qin Yiyao is an excellent ally, exceptionally talented and absolutely confident.
The "Golden Spirit Liquid" is actually only a top-grade third-class spiritual medicine at best. Even if the prescription is given to them, it won't matter.
Gu Heng didn't care about that.
Mainly, he wanted to save himself some trouble. He planned to continue enjoying the dividends without having to provide potions to the Golden Phoenix Pharmacy every now and then. That would be so much easier.
"Alright, now that everything that needed to be done has been done, let's head to Kuyun Prefecture first, and then take the Monster Beast Station to Riyan Capital."
"Alright, Master can do whatever you want."
Qin Yiyao no longer intended to raise any questions. For example, with Gu Heng's strength, he could easily take her to the capital in an instant, or cross space in an instant, leaving the Eastern Frontier and heading to the Western Regions. This was all without any problem. But he insisted on going to that "Demon Beast Station"...
Well, Master wants to experience more of the world's beauty and doesn't want to reveal his strength.
As the apprentice, how could I not accompany him?
