Chapter 485: Red Chrysanthemum City, Gathering Medial Herbs

  Red Chrysanthemum City, one of the most powerful rge cities in the Northern Region, was ranked among the top.

  Like Boing City, Red Chrysanthemum City was also governed by a seown as the Blood Chrysanthemum Sect.

  The sect’s founder, Ju Su, was rumored to have already reached the seven-star Dou Aor level.

  Because of this, the Blood Chrysanthemum Sect held absolute authority in the surrounding region. Even if an elder from Wind Lightning Pavilion arrived, they would still have to show due respect.

  Today, a middle-aged man in a white robe arrived in Red Chrysanthemum City.

  Not only did he viote the city's flight restri, but he also brazenly flew over the tral square.

  On several stone mos in the square, he carved a list of words.

  These words recorded the names of various preedial herbs.

  "Today, I, Gu He, have e to purchase medial herbs. Whoever provide any of the herbs listed oone mo will be rewarded with either a fifth-grade or sixth-grade pill."

  Standing in the sky, Gu He's deep voice echoed through every er of the vast city.

  "Who is that in the sky, daring to ighe flight ban?"

  "Buying medial herbs? Any single herb be exged for a fifth-grade or even a sixth-grade pill?"

  "There are exactly one hundred and thirty types of herbs listed on that mo, meaning at least one hundred and thirty fifth-grade pills would be needed!"

  "One hundred and thirty fifth-grade pills—such a feat would be difficult even for the Blood Chrysanthemum Sect! How dare this man make such a cim?"

  "Stop talking, the enfort team is here!"

  As the city was abuzz with specution, two middle-aged women in specially crafted red robes flew into the sky.

  Both of them had the strength of high-rank Dou Emperors.

  One of the stern-faced women stopped several meters in front of Gu He and issued a loud warning.

  "Sir, Red Chrysanthemum City forbids flying and prohibits private bat. Please desd immediately!"

  "Heh, dies, I have just arrived and was unaware of the city's rules. Five my ignorance!"

  Gu He was not angered by the warning.

  With a light chuckle, he slowly stepped down from the sky and nded gracefully on the high ptform of the square.

  His ability to walk in the air clearly indicated that he was at the Dou Aor level.

  Yet, the two high-rank Dou Emperor enfort officers showed no fear.

  In this region, no Dou Aor had ever dared to challeheir sect master, Ju Su.

  Seeing Gu He obediently desd after a single warning, the red-robed woman who had remained silent finally revealed a faint but noticeable look of satisfa.

  The moment, this previously silent oke in a cold voice.

  "The stone mo belongs to Red Chrysanthemum City. You have defaced it. Do you not io pensate for the damage?"

  Gu He did not respond immediately.

  His senses detected an approag preseh the strength of a-star Dou Aor.

  The moment, a ge authoritative voice echoed above the square.

  "Ju Ming, Ju Xin, step back."

  As the voice fell, a white-cd figure desded, stopping teers from Gu He.

  The newly arrived woman wore a pure white dress embroidered with two blood-red chrysanthemums.

  She appeared to be around thirty years old, though her actual age was certainly much higher.

  Her exposed skin was smooth and delicate, and her facial features were exceptionally refined.

  "Senior, I am Ju Su, the lord of Red Chrysanthemum City. The city's ba to maintain order. If they have caused any offense, I ask for your uanding."

  As soon as she arrived, the white-robed woman csped her hands and respectfully apologized to Gu He.

  Witnessing this, the expressions of the two red-robed women ged dramatically.

  "Did I see that right? The sect master actually addressed him as 'senior'… Could he have reached the peak of Dou Aor?"

  "Even the sect master has to address him as 'senior,' a I was just demanding pensation from him for carving oone mo?"

  "No harm done. Maintaining order iy is a good thing!"

  Gu He had always been good-tempered, and sihe Red Chrysanthemum City Lord was treating him with courtesy, he naturally had no displeasure.

  However, after hearing his respohe white-robed woman, Ju Su, secretly let out a breath of relief.

  With her eight-star Dou Aor cultivation, she could vaguely sehat Gu He had already stepped into the realm of Dou Vee.

  Years ago, she had o the Thunder Venerable of Wind Lightning Pavilion, but the aura he exuded was far weaker than what she now felt from Gu He.

  "Senior, just now I heard you say that each medial herb listed on this stone mo be exged for a fifth-grade or sixth-grade pill. Is this truly the case?"

  Ju Su's eyes were filled with anticipation as she looked at Gu He.

  "Of course, it's true!"

  Without hesitation, Gu He nodded in firmation.

  Upon receiving his affirmation, Ju Su’s face lit up with joy.

  The stone mo listed over 130 types of medial herbs.

  If they could exge all of them for fifth- or even sixth-grade pills, the total value would be equivalent to several years' worth of accumution for the Blood Chrysanthemum Sect.

  If fully absorbed, this sudden windfall could signifitly elevate the sect's overall strength.

  "In that case, senior, please wait a moment!"

  Ju Su smiled, cupped her hands in respect to Gu He, and then turo the two red-robed enforcers beside her.

  Softly, she instructed, "Ju Ming, Ju Xin, go gather the herbs listed oone mo immediately! Make sure to prepare double the amount for eae!"

  "Yes, Sect Master!"

  Upon hearing Ju Su's and, Ju Ming and Ju Xin responded respectfully before swiftly departing.

  Such a massive opportunity for profit—Ju Su naturally had no iion of letting others iy get involved.

  Thus, the Blood Chrysanthemum Sect acted with great speed.

  Gu He remained seated on the high ptform in the square, meditating for about an hour.

  Soon, Ju Ming and Ju Xiuro Ju Su’s side, carrying a rge chest between them.

  "Sect Master, all the herbs listed oone mo are here, and we’ve gathered double the required amount!"

  Ju Ming and Ju Xin spoke in unison.

  "Good!"

  Seeing how effitly they had pleted the task, Ju Su nodded in satisfa.

  With a wave of her hand, she trolled the rge chest, slowly moving it tu He.

  "Senior, everything you requested is here. Please check the tents."

  "Very well!"

  Upon hearing Ju Su's words, Gu He extended his hand, pulling the chest in front of him with a simple gesture.

  Without dey, he swiftly opehe chest and released a thread of soul power, sing each herb inside.

  "Senior, you must be colleg these herbs for alchemy purposes."
