Chapter 216
Cold Spirit Water, The Secret to Getting Rich! _2 Cao Xing nodded, as powerful as ever, the Eternal Power remained strong.
Although the amount of blood restored was not much, it was an extra bonus, still quite good.
As she watched Cao Xing finish drinking in one go, a gentle smile appeared on Mother Ji’s face, as if she were looking at her own child.
This made Cao Xing feel a bit embarrassed.
After finishing the tea, he bid farewell to the Ji family.
Then, he led the team toward the coordinates sent by Ji Xinyue.
Meanwhile, the Ji family silently watched the group’s backs, feeling sentimental.
Even Ji Xinyue kept watching Cao Xing’s back.
At this moment, Mother Ji walked over and chuckled softly: “Xinyue, do you find it hard to let go?”
Ji Xinyue, initially confused, immediately realized something, and her face flushed with embarrassment: “Mom, what are you talking about? We just met today!”
However, Mother Ji laughed again and said: “I didn’t say anything, yet you admitted it yourself.”
At this moment, Ji Xinyue also realized she had slipped.
Mother Ji looked at her with a teasing smile, making Ji Xinyue even more embarrassed.
She pouted, then turned her head away, “Hmph! I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m going to use the Recruitment Scroll and train the army.”
…
A few minutes later.
Cao Xing and his group arrived at the coordinates mentioned by Ji Xinyue.
This was another forest, the extreme cold rendering everything a pale white, even the leaves were frozen stiff.
And yet, amidst this dense forest, there was a pool of clean, unfrozen water.
White mist floated above it.
Cao Xing walked over and took a look at the attributes above.
[Cold Spirit Water: Water containing a faint Life Force.]
[After consumption, it can restore a small amount of Life Value, and it is also one of the main materials for crafting Life Secret Medicine.]
…
“Oh? This Cold Spirit Water can also be used to make Life Secret Medicine?”
Cao Xing’s eyes suddenly lit up.
There were so many uses for this!
Cold Spirit Water could be used not only to water the seeds of [War Ancient Tree] but also other magic plants.
It could even now be used to make Life Secret Medicine!
Liu Muxue also saw the attributes of Cold Spirit Water and said softly: “Axing, do you think we can exchange Cold Spirit Water for some resources at the market?”
During this time together, Liu Muxue had learned the secret of how Cao Xing became wealthy.
So she wondered if she could contribute to the development of the territory.
However, Cao Xing smiled and shook his head: “Not really, the recovery effect is too weak, so it won’t fetch a high price in the trade channel.”
“Otherwise, Ji Xinyue would’ve already gotten rich by selling the water.”
Hearing this, Liu Muxue understood and nodded, though she felt a bit dejected.
Cao Xing patted her head and smiled:
“Even though Cold Spirit Water isn’t priced highly,”
“But, turning it into Life Secret Medicine is different.”
“You need to know, one bottle of Life Secret Medicine can restore three hundred points of Life Value.”
“Given the current stage, for those survivors’ Life Value, one bottle could restore half of it. Many people would vie for it.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Muxue’s eyes sparkled with little stars.
She seemed to have found a new way to get rich!
Of course, the premise was finding a [Life Secret Medicine Recipe].
Cao Xing said: “Muxue, let’s collect some Cold Spirit Water.”
“Alright!” Liu Muxue nodded.
Then the two began gathering Cold Spirit Water together.
Through experimentation, Cao Xing found that one slot of a backpack could hold 100 liters of Cold Spirit Water.
Cao Xing filled up 10 slots straight away.
He then had Liu Muxue fill 5 slots.
Together, they carried 1500 liters of Cold Spirit Water!
This stuff didn’t need to be carried in large amounts. Ji Xinyue’s camp was nearby.
Whenever they ran low, Ji Xinyue could fetch some and trade it to Cao Xing through the market.
Satisfied, he nodded, then said: “Let’s go, to the next area.”
Cao Xing glanced at the map, then headed straight towards Fang Long’s camp.
At the same time, a trace of killing intent gradually appeared in his eyes.
The team sprinted all the way.
Time quickly came to an hour later.
…
Meanwhile,
In a snowy field, there was a decent-sized camp.
Inside were a dozen two-story buildings.
They had also built an Elemental Arrow Tower, and two Watchtowers as defensive structures.
In addition, a group of soldiers in imperial armor patrolled the area.
However, upon closer inspection, one could tell that these soldiers were highly skilled, none below level twenty.
These were actually Hunters in disguise.
Inside one of the residences,
Fang Long and his family sat in the shelter nearby with grim faces.
The family huddled around the stove, silently.
At that moment, his mother held his hand, “Dragon, you must endure…”
Fang Long trembled all over, uncertain if from anger or something else.
Next to him, Lan Qianqian also spoke with a face full of grievance: “Brother Long…what should we do?”
“Do you really want me to serve those guys?”
“They’re filthy, you can smell the stench of blood from afar…”
Upon hearing this, Fang Long’s face grew even grimmer.
He found himself trapped in a dilemma.
After the failed mission yesterday, the Hunters not only offered no gratitude but furiously berated Fang Long!
They accused him of failing to probe Cao Xing’s exact strength and causing such a loss to the Bright Church!
Moreover, they forcibly slit their cheeks, to conduct some kind of initiation into the Bright Church.
