Chapter 985: Holy Herb Valley
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Ye… Mr. Ye, please follow me.”
Luo had wanted to call Ye Chen by his name, but when she heard him call her Miss Luo, which sounded nice, she thought that if she took the initiative to call him by his name, it would seem distant.
Moreover, if Ye Chen was really the Dragon Master that her master had talked about, everyone would have to address him respectfully from now on.
Ye Chen did not waste any time and followed Luo into the depths of the forest under the cliff.
As for Shi Zun, it was no longer important.
Judging from its current injuries, it was not a threat to Ye Chen.
It would take many years for Shi Zun to recover. By then, Ye Chen would likely be able to kill it easily.
Luo led Ye Chen through the forest and arrived at an empty space before stopping.
“This is the Holy Herb Valley?”
Ye Chen was surprised. There was nothing around him.
Suddenly, he noticed something. The arrangement of the surrounding trees was strange and unusual. It felt as if he was within a huge formation, and that these trees were part of this formation.
He could sense dense spiritual energy hidden in these trees.
“A natural formation! To nurture such a large natural formation… this is really something!”
Ye Chen was a little dazed.
Luo glanced at Ye Chen. She had not expected this guy to detect the formation. She smiled. “You’re the first outsider I’ve seen who detected the formation here. When we’re inside, don’t act rashly. Listen to my instructions, okay? The Holy Herb Valley is different from the outside world. I have to bring you to see my master as soon as possible.”
After saying that, Luo took out a jade pendant from her waist. Her fingers formed a seal, and the jade pendant emitted a golden light as it floated in the air.
At the same time, the ground in front of her began to shake.
In an instant, rolling fog covered their vision.
Ye Chen vaguely sensed that their surroundings had changed.
“Mr. Ye, let’s go.” Luo glanced at Ye Chen and smiled.
With a gentle wave of her slender hand, the fog dissipated, and a crimson gate appeared out of thin air.
The entrance to the formation!
Ye Chen knew very well that once he walked through this gate, he would enter the formation. This operated using the same principle as the secret realm, but a formation within a formation was not something that ordinary people could construct. This Holy Herb Valley now seemed even more mysterious.
Luo reached out her hand and grabbed his, seemingly afraid that something would happen to Ye Chen, and then the two of them stepped into the gate.
After stepping into the gate, Ye Chen was shocked by the scene in front of him. The mountains and rivers were magnificent!
High mountains and flowing water!
The spiritual energy inside was extremely dense, completely different from the outside world, far surpassing the territories of many of the top sects of the Kunlun Mountains.
In fact, it was almost like the difference between heaven and earth!
Luo saw Ye Chen’s shocked expression and was a little pleased. “I like your current expression, but when we get inside, your jaw will drop even more!”
“Let’s go. I’ll bring you to where my master should be. I hope that she hasn’t gone into seclusion,” Luo said softly.
Because of her innocent personality, she did not think there was anything wrong with them holding hands. After all, in the Holy Herb Valley, she and some friends often did this.
When the two entered the Holy Grass Valley, they saw many people.
Ye Chen had walked less than a hundred meters when he discovered something extremely serious.
There was not a single man in the entire Holy Herb Valley…
They were all women!
Moreover, their cultivation levels were high, with the weakest being saint king realm cultivators. At the same time, these female cultivators were staring at Ye Chen, sizing him up out of curiosity.
Ye Chen was a little embarrassed. He even felt that he had entered a country of women. How did things work in this place? Why were there no men?
Luo noticed Ye Chen’s confusion and explained, “You don’t have to look around. There’s not a single male in the entire Holy Herb Valley. Master and some elders leave the Blood Spirit Secret Realm every year to look for some women from the outside world. Most of these women had no parents or had become slaves of the rich. Without my master and the elders, they would live miserable lives.”
“There’s one more thing that you need to take note of. Because they are all female, your presence here is very sensitive. I can only hope that you can successfully meet my master this time.”
As soon as Luo finished speaking, a group of women with swords on their waists walked over.
The leader was a young woman in embroidered clothes, who had a pretty face and phoenix eyes. She seemed to be smiling, but her expression contained a trace of coldness.
Naturally, the girl in embroidered clothes noticed Ye Chen immediately. Her cold eyes grew colder and her expression darkened.
Then, the girl’s gaze landed on Luo.
Ye Chen could clearly feel the sweat on Luo’s hand. She tightened her grip as if she was afraid of something.
“Mr. Ye, let’s go.”
Luo lowered her head and quickened her pace, wanting to bring Ye Chen away from that group. However, soon, a voice suddenly rang out.
“Luo, you’re walking away so quickly. Are you afraid that I’ll eat you?!”
“Aren’t you going to explain what’s going on with this outsider you brought in?”
“Or do you think you have enough authority to do something like this in the Holy Herb Valley?”
The voice came from the woman in embroidered clothes.
At the same time, the girl in embroidered clothes drew her sword and blocked Ye Chen and Luo’s path.
Although Ye Chen did not know what had happened between Luo and this woman, he did not want to interfere in a personal dispute. After all, the matters of the martial world were very complicated.
Luo raised her head stiffly and puffed out her chest as she said rudely, “Fang Yuan, I don’t think I need to report my actions to you. As for this outsider, Master asked me to bring him here. She wanted to see him today! Are you going to try and stop me?”
“Move aside, I want to see Master!”
“Are you sure your master asked you to bring him here?” The woman in embroidered clothes smiled coldly. “Let me ask you, how long has it been since you last saw your master? She has been in seclusion for a long time!”
“I haven’t seen you for a while, but your expression when you lie hasn’t changed.”
“Let me guess… Are you trying to eat the forbidden fruit while your master is in seclusion? Don’t forget the sect’s rules! Once you do the deed, you will be permanently expelled from the Holy Herb Valley!”
Fang Yuan’s words were aggressive.
“Fang Yuan, you’re slandering me!” Luo was furious when she heard these words. “I’ll repeat myself. Don’t block my path. Otherwise, if Master gets angry, you won’t be able to bear the consequences! Move aside!”
Fang Yuan smiled and took a step forward as her aura erupted. A second-level origin king realm expert!
She was many times stronger than Luo!
Almost instantly, the powerful force pushed Luo back, and even her internal organs were shaken.
