Yu Anle had a question mark appear over her head.
But since Li Yunxian used a codename when answering, Yu Anle didn’t press further.
She nodded, “So you just need to know the source?”
“Mm.” Li Yunxian nodded. “The spirit stones are already prepared.”
“Great!” Yu Anle responded cheerfully.
After saying goodbye to Yu Anle, Li Yunxian hadn’t walked far before spotting that familiar figure again.
Li Yunxian said, “Didn’t you block me? How are you still eavesdropping?” Shocked.
Su Wenjing gave Li Yunxian a look that was hard to explain.
“I was looking at the Martial and Literary Academy.” Su Wenjing clarified for himself.
Recalling what he had seen in recent days, Su Wenjing looked at Li Yunxian with a gaze full of indescribable emotions.
He thought back to the group of Martial and Literary students who were already questioning their lives last night.
Some people could cause tremendous damage without even realizing it.
After speaking, Su Wenjing directly asked the question on his mind.
“Which teacher needs you to deliver the Mind-Calming Pill?” Su Wenjing asked.
Yu Anle had no idea what those two Heaven-Grade materials were for, but Su Wenjing understood.
Living long enough, even without formal study, one inevitably picks up some knowledge.
If an item is needed to aid in calming the mind, it means the other party has serious issues.
This was no small matter.
Su Wenjing hadn’t considered the possibility that Li Yunxian might be mistaken.
Li Yunxian silently looked at Su Wenjing.
Su Wenjing: “?”
Li Yunxian continued to look at Su Wenjing.
Su Wenjing froze: “Me?”
He was inexplicably flattered.
Li Yunxian actually wanted to send him something?
Li Yunxian nodded and chuckled, “Forget about troubling my teacher over the Blood Pool incident.”
Su Wenjing was the only other person besides her who knew, and also capable of resolving the situation.
Unfortunately, all previous favors had been used up.
Now, if they wanted someone to handle things, they needed to offer something good.
Su Wenjing looked at Li Yunxian and said in a low voice, “You used it properly; it’s not your fault. The admissions teacher promised, and when this was brought up at the meeting, the high-level academy officials present had no objections.”
Li Yunxian also used it normally, without any damaging actions toward the Blood Pool.
It consumed a lot, but that was Li Yunxian’s skill; anyone who knew couldn’t blame her.
Li Yunxian acted by her own principles, and so did Su Wenjing.
“Handling this matter is my responsibility; you can speak directly.”
Li Yunxian stared at Su Wenjing speechlessly. “I would speak directly if I could. Didn’t someone block me?”
Su Wenjing silently looked at Li Yunxian.
Usually when people came to him with matters, they didn’t grasp his spiritual sense like this!
Didn’t she know where he lived?
“Do you want the Ningxin Spiritual Artifact?” Li Yunxian asked, looking at the blue flame pattern on Su Wenjing’s brow.
When she first learned the Heaven’s Truth, a fire of anger rose in her heart, but after dealing with those at Tribulation Stage, it had settled.
But Su Wenjing hadn’t.
The flame tattoo on his brow, whatever kind of Soulfire it was, clearly couldn’t be extinguished and was sealed there instead.
“Avoidance doesn’t solve problems.” Su Wenjing refused, but gave Li Yunxian a suggestion.
“Give it to your teacher.” Su Wenjing said.
That was because teaching Li Yunxian had left her anxious and unsettled.
“Alright.” Li Yunxian thought about her teacher, who lately had been busy with classes, repairs, and trying to get close to the Martial and Literary teachers.
He did seem pretty upset.
Li Yunxian completely put aside her own concerns and thought it through.
Speaking of which, Li Yunxian stared at Su Wenjing, still standing before her. “Why are you still here?”
Su Wenjing was speechless.
Was she going to use him and then just toss him aside?
He left behind the reason he hadn’t left yet.
“The Martial and Literary want you to go back with them.” Saying that, Su Wenjing’s figure vanished before Li Yunxian’s eyes, leaving her no chance to ask further.
Li Yunxian, seeing through Su Wenjing’s thoughts, thought:
This is really childish!!
But Martial and Literary wanted her to come too? Why?
Li Yunxian was somewhat confused.
Shouldn’t their target be her teacher?
***
Meanwhile, Yu Anle happily returned to report the situation to their teacher.
“Teacher, Yunxian told us she wants to know the purchasing channels for the Unceasing Divine Fruit and the Mysterious Frost Lotus.”
“Just the source is enough.”
The Martial and Literary teacher wasn’t as pleased as Yu Anle upon hearing this.
This request was too small; it hardly counted as a favor.
“…Tell me exactly what you talked about.” The Martial and Literary teacher said.
Yu Anle and the others had good memories, and since their conversation was quite impressive, they quickly recounted it.
After hearing their words, the Martial and Literary teacher thought:
These young ones didn’t realize it, but they did.
In this chat, Li Yunxian was guiding these kids, meaning they owed her a favor.
Now Li Yunxian’s request was roughly equal in value to the help she had given them.
Her sense of balance was impeccable.
In a way, the Martial and Literary teachers somewhat understood why the students at Tiantong Academy were quietly led by Li Yunxian.
The Martial and Literary teachers covered their faces.
How do you deal with a student who is both kind-hearted and knows how to keep things proper?
“Is there still Candidate Plan D…” Qi Ke said weakly.
Everyone:
Everyone racked their brains, and finally someone looked at Yu Anle.
“Anle, you said you’re about to take on an adventure quest, right? Why don’t you directly invite Li Yunxian to help you?”
“Then if you get lost and don’t return on time, we can go get you, and bring her back to the Martial and Literary Academy along the way?”
Yu Anle opened her mouth wide and immediately refused, “Ah? That’s not very appropriate.”
“I think it’s fine. How about this…” Qi Ke, feeling this was a solid plan, took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Yu Anle, “Take this. The stuff inside is the reward for Li Yunxian’s help on the quest.”
“Tell her in advance the terrain is complicated and it’s likely she can’t return immediately. But if she’s delayed, she can come back with you.”
“If she agrees, then she’s accepted the result. No problem.”
Yu Anle felt something about this sounded off, but also not really wrong.
After lowering her head to sense the contents inside the Storage Ring, the question of right or wrong didn’t seem so important anymore.
For a moment, she felt her greatest desire was no longer what Mingnian had detected, but the deep, heartfelt acknowledgment of that high-spirited classmate who shouted, “Use spirit stones to crush me!”
This good thing, she couldn’t refuse on Li Yunxian’s behalf.
“Okay.” Yu Anle gripped the Storage Ring and agreed immediately.
Meanwhile, back with Li Yunxian, after parting with Su Wenjing, she received news from Shen Bofeng.
His materials were all purchased.
Shen Bofeng was a wealthy third-generation immortal descendant; he had resources and channels. Getting these things done was quick.
After receiving the materials, Li Yunxian went to the workshop to make this high-grade spiritual artifact for the first time in reality.
Qi cultivation level six, Xuan-Grade Lower.
Li Yunxian closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the two replenishing spirit pills hidden in her mouth. Her heart calmed considerably.
These were preparations she had made in advance, worried about insufficient spiritual power in case of emergency.
“You can start now.” Li Tianying said as she observed Li Yunxian reach her best state.
As Li Yunxian’s teacher and the person in charge of this order, she was both supervisor and backup in case of accidents.
