Su Nianxia nodded his head and asked again, "Has he gone out to battle?"
"No, even War Monarchs of this level would not personally take action."
Su Nianxia heaved a sigh of relief, "Then I can relax."
Hua Ruge watched from the side and thought, what a great girl.
In the day, he would head to the auction to take a look, the Mercenary Union would go there, and while preparing the equipment, he would gather as much information as possible about the Herba Flavescentis s.
Other than the fact that she knew that Herba Flavescentis grew in the East Sea, she didn't know anything else. The East Sea was extremely vast, so if she didn't know the exact location, she would undoubtedly be searching for a needle in a haystack.
Furthermore, after she asked around, she found out that the Herba Flavescentis was just a legend. A large majority of people did not believe that there was actually such a legendary elixir, not to mention a specific location.
That day, Hua Ruge was deep in her thoughts. Although there were no clues at all, she was not in a rush.
After all, there were not many people who knew about the Herba Flavescentis. As long as she reached the vicinity of the East Sea, there was a certain probability of her being found by following others.
"Elder sister is still thinking about seizing the treasure?" Lan Bing'er said as he walked in.
Because the weather was warm now, Hua Ruge's door was open.
Hua Ruge nodded his head: "That's right, I don't have any leads. It looks like I can only go over early and see the situation."
"I have something that might help my sister." Lan Bing'er walked forward, and with a flip of his hand, retrieved a sheepskin scroll from the spatial space, and handed it over to Hua Ruge.
Hua Ruge took it and opened it, only to find that it was a map of the Eastern Ocean region, marked with various islands and the characteristics of different seas. In the center of the map was a light purple spirit herb, with the words' Herba Flavescentis' written on it.
These days, Hua Ruge had also inquired about some of the things that happened in the Eastern Ocean and the characteristics were roughly the same as what was said on the map.
The smile on her face slowly widened, she raised her head and looked at Lan Bing'er: "This is simply a treasure, how did you get it?"
"It's so nice to see my sister smile." Lan Bing'er poured a cup of tea and passed it to her with a face full of gratification.
Hua Ruge took the tea and praised: "You're not bad, you can even get this thing."
"Sister, you are overestimating Bing'er. I only have Guardian Knights under my command. Although they are powerful, they cannot go far and they are not good at it." Lan Bing'er said as he spread out his hands.
"Not you?" Hua Ruge raised his brows: "Did you buy that?"
Lan Bing'er smiled lightly: "Big sister might not have guessed it, but Monarch sent me to pass on this to you yesterday."
Hua Ruge was a little taken aback when he heard her.
If she was allowed to guess, she would indeed be unable to do so.
"Did he say anything?" Hua Ruge asked.
"The Emperor said that the East Sea is extremely dangerous. He warned sister to be careful." Lan Bing'er replied truthfully.
Hua Ruge was moved by his words.
She really didn't expect that a man who had the heart of the world would take her matters to heart.
Furthermore, how could Jun Tianxia not know that she snatched away the Herba Flavescentis to save Tuoba Rui, but even so, she still helped her?
"Monarchs might really not be as complicated as we thought." Lan Bing'er sighed.
Hua Ruge kept the map, and said slowly: "Consider that I owe him a favor."
Lan Bing'er nodded and asked: "When does big sister plan to set out?"
Hua Ruge calculated the time, the Herba Flavescentis would only mature in two months. From the Da Yu to the Cang Lan and then to the East Ocean by boat, the journey would take around one month.
"In half a month." she said.
Since he had the map, he didn't need to set off too early. Preparing everything was more important.
"Then I'll send a few people to help elder sister." Lan Bing'er said.
Hua Ruge shook his head: "This time, we will not be able to snatch the treasure. The more people there are, the greater our goal will be."
"But elder sister, it's too dangerous for you to go alone." Lan Bing'er asked worriedly.
Hua Ruge laughed and said: "What storm? Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to myself."
While the two of them were talking, the voice of the Guardian Knight came in from outside, "There are assassins, fight with all your strength."
Hua Ruge and Lan Bing'er looked at each other and asked uncertainly: "Did I hear wrongly? Someone dares to assassinate here?"
Lan Bing'er blinked, "This is also the first time I've met him."
"Let's go watch the show." Hua Ruge said as he ran out of the door.
Lan Bing'er could not help but smile bitterly, he took out his mask and covered his face, and followed him out.
Just as the two of them reached the door, they felt an extremely strong shockwave, causing Hua Ruge to hurriedly retreat two steps.
Lan Bing'er stopped just as she reached out her hand.
"Bam!"
"Bam!"
"Bam!"
A few sounds of flesh striking the ground rang out, and a few people fell under their feet. Looking at their strength, they were all Seven Stars Battle Master s.
Two rows of Guardian Knights surged in front of the door. The two couldn't see the person who was performing the Assassin clearly, but they could see a rather strong Knight fly out and fall to the ground in a sorry state.
Lan Bing'er frowned and said: "What a strong power."
Hua Ruge stroked his chin and said, "Why do I feel that this person's power is a little familiar?"
Lan Bing'er was a little surprised.
In the center of the battle, there was a series of purple flashes. They were extremely powerful, and because of this, this person's attacks, which didn't have any pattern, actually collided with every single one of his moves.
Her eyes lit up and she shouted, "Stop!"
The Guardian Knight wasn't one of her people, so she naturally wouldn't listen.
"Stop, all of you retreat." Although she did not know the reason behind Lan Bing'er's words, there must be a reason behind them.
Only then did the Guardian Knight stop. Although he kept retreating, he still looked at the incoming assassin with a nervous expression.
The figure of the person in front of the door was revealed.
This person was dressed in a charming purple robe and had wild black hair. He was so handsome that he could almost be considered a demon. Every movement of his was captivating. However, his purple eyes seemed to emit a killing intent that made others not dare to approach him.
When Hua Ruge saw that the smile on his face had softened, she called out, "Marten."
The Little Marten raised its eyebrows and looked at the Guardian Knights, but did not relax, as though they would continue fighting if Hua Ruge was not handed over.
Lan Bing'er had seen the Little Marten take form before, so he said: "Everyone, leave."
Guardian Knights always followed orders, so they all retreated.
"Be good, big sister is not in danger." Hua Ruge laughed.
The killing intent in the Little Marten's eyes faded as it walked forward. The smile on its face became thicker and thicker, and its expression was as innocent as a boy's.
"How did you find me?" Hua Ruge didn't avoid in the slightest as she pulled on his hand.
