Chapter 342: Giving medicine
Level two Immortal Herbs were very precious and there were only a few of them in the tribe, but they were all in the hands of the elven elders, being treated like treasures. Vivian did not have skills in reasoning or deceiving people, so she could only steal the herb!
This medicine needed to be cared for every day and would consume large amounts of resources every year. They were no use to the elders at all because which elder wasn't at least in the True Spirit Realm? It was a waste of heaven's gift, it should be used in a better place!
But which elder should she steal from?
The elven elders were not easy to mess with. The third elder Aubersen had the best relation with her and he perfectly had a stalk of Immortal Herb in his yard, so he was the unlucky one this time!
In the middle of the night.
Vivian snuck out of her room, heading to elder Aubersen's herb garden. The defenses of this herb garden were very strict. The first layer was an illusion array that made people unable to see the herb garden. There was another barrier behind the illusion array and even a True Spirit Realm expert would find it hard to break through. Then there were several alarms and defenses, as well as mechanical puppets that patrolled the garden. There was even a seal around every single herb itself.
The possibility of something being stolen with these defenses was close to zero.
Even if someone tried to forcefully steal anything, it was impossible not to set off an alarm. Once one was set, Aubersen would know immediately. However, this was not difficult for little princess Vivian. She was the possessor of an innate spatial energy, so these defenses only existed in name to the little princess.
Puchi!
Space was torn like a piece of cloth.
The little princess directly entered elder Aubersen's garden. The entire garden was filled with treasures. There were only several dozen precious herbs inside, but each one was very precious.
Vivian found the Immortal Herb Aubersen obtained from a dangerous ruins eighty years ago, the Longevity Grass!
The Longevity Grass, despite its lackluster name, was a very precious Immortal Herb. It's said that this herb contained a strong amount of innate vitality that was enough to cure any birth defects or hidden injuries and increase one's lifespan by 5%. The strong source energy within was enough for an Awakened Soul Cultivator to easily break through their bottleneck!
This is great!
I pick you!
The little princess held a spatial dagger and swiftly bypassed the seal. She cut it on the spatial level and the herb was perfectly taken out, not leaving a single hair behind. There was not a single change in the soil the herb had been planted in. The herb was not pulled out, but rather moved out on a spatial level.
This matter could only be accomplished by Vivian in the forest, so the seal left by Aubersen wasn't touched at all.
"Elder Aubersen, you can't blame me. Royal father also says to plant good deeds, so me taking this herb to save Chu Tian could be considered planting a good deed!"
With the Immortal Herb in hand.
Vivian left the tribe on the same night.
Because the little princess knew that the matter of the stolen herb would not be hidden for long. Once Aubersen was to find that the Immortal Herb he had cultivated for eighty years was gone, he would go wild with anger. She needed to quickly send this herb into Chu Tian's hands, to avoid extra problems later on.
The little princess rushed through the forest and bravely stepped over the Southern Summer Country border for the first time. When she finally arrived in Central State, it was already daybreak. Even if the little princess had innate spatial energy, rushing along like this was still enough to leave her tired.
"Where does Chu Tian live?"
The Southern Summer Country was at war, so Central State was not as lively as usual. Adding in the fact that it was four in the morning, most people were still in their home, so Central State City was very desolate.
This was the little princess' first time in a human city. The humans' stone houses were very strange and were very clustered. There were few trees within this city which was very strange to her. Was living in this dense crowd of tall and big stone houses comfortable?
There were no trees, no grass, no gardens, no running water, no tree houses, no birds as companions.... . Several hundred people squeezed in together, thinking about it just felt very twisted. Humans were truly strange!
Where did Chu Tian live?
Vivian closed her eyes and lit her Mind's Lamp. Her Divine Sense was very strong, instantly covering half the city. What made the little princess surprised was that these humans seemed very weak, unbelievably so. Why was there such a weak country in this world?
Vivian did not have any ideas of the kingdom's power classifications, she did not understand that a small kingdom was the lowest ranking of power.
So the Southern Summer humans were this weak, no wonder they were bullied by the Spirit Beasts Kingdom like this!
The little princess' confidence increased after learning the strength of the Southern Summer Country's people because in the entirety of Central State City, there was no one that could threaten her. So, she assuredly found the strongest person and headed in his direction. Chu Tian's position in the Southern Summer Country was very high, so finding the strongest person was right.
The Southern Summer King's temporary residence.
Dongfang Gan was currently analyzing the military's situation during the night. When Dongfang Gan was concentrated on reading over the situation.
"Hey, hello!"
Suddenly a weak and sweet girl's voice filled his ears. Dongfang Gan was shocked to find a petite figure that was two-three meters away from him.
Dongfang Gan's expression fell as he sent out the pen in his hand.
No matter who it was, if someone silently appeared in the middle of the night, they would have the same reaction as Dongfang Gan. Dongfang Gan's cultivation a 2nd Layer True Spirit Cultivator and was the person with the highest cultivation in the Southern Summer Country. For the other side to appear within three meters and for him to not notice the slightest bit of her aura, what did that mean?
She was either a high class assassin!
Or she was an expert with a higher cultivation!
Or perhaps it was both. Since she could not alert the guards outside and suddenly appear in front of Dongfang Gan, she was not an ordinary person.
The little princess did not care as she stuck out two fingers and grabbed the pen thrown out by Dongfang Gan. Dongfang Gan gave a low roar and instantly released his spirit energy. The Dongfang Family's Weapon Transformation Source Spirit turned into a spear and quickly stabbed out at the little princess.
"Why are you attacking me!"
Vivian raised her hand and distorted the space in front of her. The spear pierced into the distorted space and appeared behind Dongfang Gan. The attack landed on Dongfang Gan in the end and Dongfang Gan was sent flying by his own attack.
"Who are you?"
"I'm here to send medicine for Chu Tian." Vivian raised the wooden box in her hand and said in not fluent human language, "Do you know where Chu Tian is?"
"Send medicine?"
Dongfang Gan saw Vivian open the wooden box and a dense aura was released from it, instantly filling the room. Dongfang Gan's injury was covered in this aura and it quickly became better.
This medicine was.... .
The door suddenly burst open as several Dongfang Family guards charged in and shouted, "Catch the assassin!"
"Stop!" Dongfang Gan immediately stopped them. If this fellow wanted him, these people could not stop her at all, "This is not the right situation. Go and call someone from Miracle Commerce over."
Meng Yingying was tossing and turning in bed. With the recent developments, she had not been able to rest in several days due to her worries. Now that Chu Tian was sick again, Meng Yingying was very afraid, she did not know how long Chu Tian could last.
It's said that the War Hounds army had been plundering merchants in large amounts. It was clear they wanted ships to head south.
If there was no Chu Tian, how could they block the aggressive War Hounds Country?
At this time, news was sent to Meng Yingying saying that someone from another race had come to Central State to deliver medicine. Meng Yingying first pinched herself to make sure she wasn't in a dream before jumping up in joy. She immediately put on her clothes and rushed over to Dongfang Gan's palace.
She saw that her elder sister had arrived first.
At this time, Meng Qingwu's face was filled with excitement and her body was also slightly trembling. There was a simple wooden box in her hands. For her normal calm elder sister to display this kind of excited expression, there had to be an Immortal Grade Herb in the little wooden box.
"Ah! Aren't you princess Meng Yingying?"
Meng Yingying found a girl who was younger than her by a year or two. She had dark green hair and a flower wreath in her head. Her clothes were woven from green elven leaves, revealing a pair of white crystal legs that looked very beautiful. Her ears were also long and sharp. She was holding a cup of tea and sitting on a chair, sizing up the surrounding humans with eyes filled with curiosity.
When that other race person wearing strange clothes saw Meng Yingying, her eyes immediately lit up. Her snow white legs fell to the ground and she ran over to Meng Yingying with a look of joy. She looked over Meng Yingying several times, "You're even more beautiful than in the movie. My sisters and I all love you. I never thought I would see the real person, this is great!"
Meng Yingying felt a bit embarrassed and a bit strange.
Who was this person?
"Yingying, this is the wood elves' princess Vivian!" Meng Qingwu walked beside her little sister and said, "She's here to bring an Immortal Grade Herb for Chu Tian, she is a great benefactor to our Miracle Commerce."
"Elven princess?" Meng Yingying was shocked. This was a real princess and Meng Yingying only pretended to be one. Meng Yingying did not dare neglect her as she quickly said, "Elder sister princess, Oh no. I should call you grandmother princess. I am Meng Yingying, thank you for saving Chu Tian!"
The little princess' small face scrunched up as she indignantly said, "What grandmother? How am I like a grandmother!"
The little princess was a bit unhappy, causing Dongfang Gan's heart to skip a beat. This little elf seemed harmless, but her cultivation was immeasurably deep. If they accidentally annoyed her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Meng Yingying quickly scratched her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. An elf's lifespan is different from a human's, so I don't know what to call you."
Elves had a much longer lifespan than humans. The little princess looked to be around thirteen-fourteen years old, but her actual age was around sixty-seventy years old. Meng Yingying had just turned sixteen, was it wrong for her to call her grandmother? It seemed like whether it was humans or elves, they didn't like to talk about age.
"Forget it, forget it!" The little princess did not care as she impatiently said, "Why isn't Chu Tian here yet? I want to see him!"
"Chu Tian's injury is acting up, so he's resting in bed." Meng Qingwu also couldn't wait any longer, "We'll immediately bring the medicine to him!"
