Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 232 The Person He Was Looking For

"This fruit is also of great use to us. Selling some to you is impossible. If Young Master Guo wants this, you'd better find another way." Ning Xuan showed no respect for Starry Sky Academy and refused without any politeness.

Guo Jia's face darkened for a moment. He had been guessing the identities of this group of people since the beginning. He revealed his name as a test to see if Ning Xuan and the others knew about Starry Sky Academy.

In his view, Ning Xuan and the others had some strength and should not be unknown people. However, if they knew about the existence of Starry Sky Academy, would they reject him so readily?
He quickly composed himself.

Guo Jia lightly stroked the jade pendant at his waist, and a ray of golden light spilled out from between his fingers, condensing into a three-inch square light screen in the air. Twelve golden patterns flowed within the light screen, vaguely revealing the image of a seven-leaf spirit herb.

"This is a Soul-Gathering Immortal Herb, which can heal damage to the soul. At the same time, it can also promote the regeneration of companion spirits. 300 years ago, the marshal who awakened two companion spirits at the same time obtained that opportunity by consuming the Soul-Gathering Immortal Herb," ​​Guo Jia said, pointing to the spiritual herb in the light screen.

"Soul-Gathering Immortal Herb?" Ning Xuan looked at the golden spiritual herb in the light screen with surprise. It was another spiritual medicine she had never seen before.

The mountain wind whipped up Guo Jia's sleeves. With a wave of his hand, the light screen shattered. "Miss, how about I trade you the Soul Gathering Immortal Grass for the Prajna Fruit?"

"The Soul-Gathering Immortal Herb has such an effect, and you're still willing to exchange it? You must be lying to me." Ning Xuan looked very disbelieving, but she was actually quite excited inside.

The new energy within her body is already able to contend with the previously awakened fire energy. Although they are currently going their separate ways and have achieved a temporary balance, the companion spirit of that new energy type has not yet awakened. Once she returns to the Federation, the suppression of the rules disappears, and the little red bird returns, the new energy carrying the power of wind and thunder will be no match for the fire spirit Vermilion Bird.

I wonder if this Soul-Gathering Herb is effective in stimulating the birth of new companion spirits?

“How could I be lying to you? This Soul-Gathering Immortal Herb is a specialty of the Void Realm, extremely rare. However, this herb also has many problems. It is said to heal soul damage and promote the regeneration of companion spirits. In reality, its ability to heal soul damage is very clear, but promoting the regeneration of companion spirits is not very credible. After all, since ancient times, those who have awakened two kinds of companion spirits are very rare.” Guo Jia said seriously, seeing that Ning Xuan was somewhat interested.

"How would you like to change it?" Ning Xuan asked.

“One immortal herb can be exchanged for thirty fruits,” Guo Jia said immediately when Ning Xuan asked.

"A maximum of ten fruits. Take it or leave it. If you have anything else of value, you can bring it out too. If you have something I want, we can continue to trade," Ning Xuan replied.

"Ten it is then." He smiled and pushed a jade box toward Ning Xuan, which stopped between the two of them.

Di Youlin also pushed the box containing the red fruit over.

Guo Jia readily agreed to the exchange terms. The Soul Gathering Immortal Grass was indeed a good thing, but he was determined to get the Prajna Fruit.

“I have quite a few good things here. Why don’t we sit down and chat sometime?” Guo Jia was very interested in Ning Xuan.

"No need. If we happen to meet again in the future, we can talk again then." Ning Xuan said this and prepared to leave.

Both sides withdrew from the scene while remaining on guard.

After leaving, Ning Xuan and the others continued hunting strange beasts and collecting useful plants. The area where they collected red fruits was neither far nor close to their lodging. Fearing that Guo Jia might secretly follow or monitor them, Ning Xuan and the others ran to many places that day. It wasn't until almost dark that they used Min Wu's talent skill, short-distance fixed-point teleportation, to return to the tree cave from a distance.

Speaking of Guo Jia, he did indeed have someone secretly follow and monitor Ning Xuan, but after following her for most of the day, they still lost her in the end. "Master, it's best not to offend the people from Starry Sky Academy if possible," Lin Mo said with some worry.

Starry Sky Academy is one of the five extraordinary forces. There are extraordinary individuals within the academy, and these extraordinary individuals are all extremely powerful figures.

A spirit controller whose mental strength reaches level 3s is the next level to become a superhuman. However, only superhumans know how to take that next step.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, a spirit controller whose mental strength reaches level 3s will join a supernatural force in order to seek an opportunity for a breakthrough.

"What's there to be afraid of? So what if it's a supernatural force? It's not like there's only one supernatural force." Di Youlin was somewhat dismissive of Lin Mo's concerns.

"Besides, it was Guo Jia who started this today. If he didn't have a lot of people under his command, making it difficult to take action, we would have left him there today," Di Youlin said with dissatisfaction.

Guo Jia himself was quite strong, and with 300 helpers, even if he couldn't defeat Ning Xuan and the others for a while, it would be easy for him to escape.

"No need to mention it. We might encounter other teams in the future. Our principle is 'we won't offend others unless they offend us,' but if others do offend us, we will definitely eliminate them completely if we have the ability," Ning Xuan said.

The meeting quickly ended, and everyone returned to their respective caves to rest.

When Ning Xuan returned to her cave, she saw Chen Nan lying on the table, looking utterly bored.

Upon seeing Ning Xuan return, Chen Nan quickly greeted her, "Master is back. How did the beast hunt go today? Was the haul good?"

Chen Nan inquired with concern.

Ning Xuan glanced at him. "So curious? Do you want to go out and get some exercise? Is your injury healed?"

Ning Xuan looked Chen Nan up and down.

"It was just a minor injury, and you even gave me medicine. It's already healed." Chen Nan looked at Ning Xuan with a sticky, lingering gaze.

"Alright, alright, I'll take you hunting tomorrow. You don't need to stay inside anymore," Ning Xuan said, rolling her eyes at him.

"Thank you very much, my lord." Chen Nan said happily.

As for Guo Jia, he had been cultivating at the Starry Sky Academy and had not participated in the Alchemist Competition. He also did not pay much attention to the Federation's political or military affairs. Therefore, he did not know Ning Xuan, Di Youlin, or the others.

Guo Jia was furious that his men had lost track of Ning Xuan, and he was now trying to figure out Ning Xuan's identity.

Although he didn't recognize the people accompanying Ning Xuan, he could sense the pressure emanating from them. At least two or three of them had a mental strength level of 3s, and the rest were mostly at the 2s level, making them extremely powerful in combat.

Which of the major families in the Federation has such a grand gesture, having so many experts by her side?
Could it be that this young lady is the one who won the Alchemist Competition? Isn't she the person he's looking for?
