Dragon-Marked War God

“Even Lingji has entered the Divine World?”

Wu Ningzhu said softly, but there was more worry in her eyes, because at this moment, a hint of disappointment had appeared in Jiang Chen’s eyes. Now both she and Yan Qingcheng were here. The only one missing was Yan Chenyu.

Xiao Yu was the greatest weight on Jiang Chen’s mind, and also what he least wanted to bring up. But Wu Ningzhu and Yan Qingcheng exchanged a glance. They understood Jiang Chen better than he understood himself, and they also hoped Xiao Yu would appear as soon as possible. But things didn’t go as they wished. Xiao Yu had never appeared before their eyes, and there hadn’t even been the slightest news of her. Even now that Lan Lingji had entered the Divine World, there was still no word of Xiao Yu.

“I hope Shisan can find Lan Lingji soon. For him, Lan Lingji is his greatest safe harbor. Since entering the Divine World, he’s gone through far, far too many hardships. It would be best to have someone care for him and comfort him. And in the future, he won’t be so reckless anymore.”

Jiang Chen said with a smile. Although he missed Xiao Yu in his heart, he didn’t say a word about her. He didn’t know where exactly Xiao Yu was now, but he could feel that Xiao Yu must be in the Divine World, just somewhere he didn’t know about yet. One day, their whole family would definitely be reunited.

“Let’s go take a look at this city first. It would be best if we could find some spirit medicines that would help your soul. And we can ask around for news of the monk while we’re at it.”

Jiang Chen took Wu Ningzhu by one hand and Yan Qingcheng by the other, and the three of them walked toward Tianguang City in the distance.

The fee to enter the city was fifteen Mid Grade Divine Origin Stones. Jiang Chen directly took out a High Grade Divine Origin Stone and handed it to the city guard. The guard’s expression immediately changed into one of pleasant surprise. This was half a year’s income for them, and High Grade Divine Origin Stones were something one could only come across by chance, not something one could seek.

“Senior, if there’s anything you need, just say it. This humble one will tell you everything he knows without holding anything back.”

The city guard saw that Jiang Chen’s strength was extraordinary, that he had two such heavenly beautiful women with him, and that he was so generous. Someone like this was definitely not someone he could afford to offend.

“I want to know where the biggest medicinal herb trading center in this city is, or what large auction houses there are.”

Jiang Chen said flatly.

“The biggest medicinal herb trading center in our Tianguang City is the Lingying Market. The spirit medicines there, they have just about everything. As for auction houses, there’s the Lingying Auction House under the Lingying Market as well. Senior, just go to the Lingying Market and ask, and you’ll know. It’s three thousand miles to the east of the city.”

The city guard said with a cheerful smile.

Jiang Chen nodded and headed straight for the east of the city with Yan Qingcheng and Wu Ningzhu.

The other city guards were full of envy. On one hand they envied the guard who had been tipped by an expert, and on the other they envied the women by Jiang Chen’s side. They were simply beautiful enough to topple nations and cities, like heavenly fairies. They had never seen such beautiful women in their lives. It was as if they had stepped out of a painting.

“So beautiful. A woman like that, even one more look would be enough for me.”

“That’s simply a miracle. That’s heaven’s most perfect creation.”

“I think I’ve lost interest in that tigress at home.”

The city guards stared, entranced, at the receding figures of Jiang Chen, Wu Ningzhu and Yan Qingcheng.

The Lingying Market, as the largest medicinal herb trading center in all of Tianguang City, was unrivaled in its prominence. It had every kind of spirit medicine. As long as it wasn’t too bizarre, it could definitely be found here.

Jiang Chen walked straight into the Lingying Market. The beautiful maidservant who received them couldn’t take her eyes off Wu Ningzhu and Yan Qingcheng, not blinking once.

“I want the best soul-healing spirit medicine you have here.”

Jiang Chen looked at the maidservant and said.

“Er… the best? Young master, are you sure?”

The maidservant was a little startled. The best sacred medicine for healing the soul, how much would that cost? It was simply not something she could handle.

“I don’t like repeating myself.”

Jiang Chen frowned and said.

“Very well. Please wait a moment, the three of you. Please go to the private room upstairs and have some tea and refreshments. I’ll go invite the old manager right away.”

The maidservant didn’t dare to be careless. Most importantly, the two beauties by Jiang Chen’s side were simply too stunning. What ordinary person could handle two such peerless beauties? It went without saying that Jiang Chen’s status must be quite noble. Having worked at the Lingying Market for years, she still had this much discernment.

Before long, an old man with completely white hair and beard appeared in the private room. His expression was calm and his eyes were sharp. He said with a smile:

“What does this young master need? How can this old man be of help?”

“I need the best soul-healing spirit medicine. Price is not a problem.”

Jiang Chen said flatly.

“The best soul-healing spirit medicine we have here is the Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass. The price is also quite steep. A single Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass costs at least one hundred Supreme Grade Divine Origin Stones.”

The old man said with a smile and glanced at Jiang Chen. One should never judge a person by appearance. As one of the few remaining old managers of the Lingying Market, he wouldn’t make such a rookie mistake. People with real ability and background were always very low-key. This young man was indeed low-key, but walking around flaunting two peerless beauties didn’t seem so low-key after all.

“Take me to see it.”

Jiang Chen said.

The old manager’s heart stirred. A treasure like the Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass was something very few people ever touched. Those who used Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass were mostly experts above the Divine King Realm, even Hierarch Realm experts, since only they could afford it. After all, more than a hundred Supreme Grade Divine Origin Stones was not something just anyone could produce. At the very least, no one below the Divine King Realm would have such means.

The old manager was only at the Peak Heavenly God Realm himself, and he simply couldn’t see through the strength of the three people before him.

“Very well! Young master, please come with me.”

The old manager took Jiang Chen to see the Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass. Wu Ningzhu held Jiang Chen’s hand tightly as well, hoping this Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass could help her.

The three of them followed the old manager straight to the medicine storehouse. Jiang Chen stopped in front of it, and the old manager went inside. Before long, he came back out of the storehouse.

The old manager was holding a purple-gold wooden box. He gently opened it, and a purple, velvety medicinal herb with fine ripples on its surface was presented before Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen’s expression stirred. This Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass did indeed have no small amount of soul power lingering around it, but this one stalk was really just a drop in the bucket.

“So, young master, what do you think of my Soul-Nurturing Lingzhi Grass?”

The old manager stroked his beard and said, his face full of pride. A treasure worth more than a hundred Supreme Grade Divine Origin Stones, how could it be ordinary?

“It’s all right, I suppose. How many do you have here?”

Jiang Chen said.

The old manager was taken aback. What did he mean by that? Could he want to buy them all?

“However many you have, I’ll take them all.”

Jiang Chen said again.
