Chapter 560: Chapter 560: Acquiring the Earth Rune_1

"If we add the two thousand-year-old medicinal herbs from the Jin family today, it is a quite fruitful harvest. Let’s go find Yan’er and prepare to pack up," Su Chengyu said to Lin Chuxue.

"Alright."

Lin Chuxue nodded. At this moment, the voice of Qingxu Zi echoed in Su Chengyu’s mind.

"Boy, come get your Earth Rune."

Su Chengyu asked Lin Chuxue to return to the trade hall first to find Yu Yanshu, while he took the elevator to the ground floor to meet Qingxu Zi outside the convention center.

Qingxu Zi flicked his finger, and a symbol flew into Su Chengyu’s hand.

"I’ve given you the symbol, I’ll take my leave."

"Master, why the rush?" Su Chengyu asked.

"I am very busy. You think I roam around all day like you?" Qingxu Zi replied.

"Master, what are you busy with? Exorcising demons?" Su Chengyu inquired.

Qingxu Zi stroked his beard and said: "Exorcising demons is the duty of the Demon Slayer Department. Such trivial matters, I couldn’t be bothered! I am busy with very important matters."

Su Chengyu was surprised. Whatever could make Qingxu Zi regard it as an important matter, must certainly not be simple.

Su Chengyu then asked, "Do I still have two chances to seek your help?"

"Yes," Qingxu Zi nodded.

"Then I want to use one of them. Please help me find my sister."

Su Chengyu had always worried about Su Xiaoxiao. Although he knew she was alive, he didn’t know where she was, whether she was being bullied, whether she was struggling. Retrieving Su Xiaoxiao was also very important to him.

"I can’t help," Qingxu Zi shook his head.

"How can you not help?" Su Chengyu complained.

"Finding people is like looking for a needle in a haystack, it’s very troublesome and time-consuming! Even if it’s for you, I am too busy to spare this much time," Qingxu Zi replied seriously.

"What about the promised three instances of help?" Su Chengyu stated with frustration.

Qingxu Zi said, "Helping three times depends on the specific situation. If I can, I will. But if I can’t, there’s nothing I can do. To find your sister is actually quite simple, the Primordial Eye of your apprentice can help you. Once she enters the Foundation Establishment Realm, the special ability of the Primordial Eye should be able to locate your sister."

"However, let me remind you again, since your apprentice has the Primordial Eye, the heavenly tribulation she will face will be exceptionally strong. The higher the talent of the person, the stronger the tribulation they face. Therefore, unless you’re absolutely certain, do not let her try to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, or else she will very likely die under the tribulation."

After saying that, Qingxu Zi disappeared at the stroke of his horsetail whisk. He left pretty fast, and it made Su Chengyu curious about what important matter he was dealing with.

Su Chengyu was somewhat disappointed, but he quickly cheered himself up so as not to feel discouraged.

Yan’er was already at the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm, not far from the Foundation Establishment Realm. But as Qingxu Zi also mentioned, the tribulation that Yu Yanshu would face would be incredibly powerful. Even with the protection of the True Dragon Reverse Scale, it would be extremely risky.

She currently shouldn’t try to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, otherwise, her survival rate would be incredibly low.

After Qingxu Zi had left, Su Chengyu returned to the trade hall.

The person from the Zhuo family who had been assigned to tail Su Chengyu realized that he had vanished. He quickly searched for Su Chengyu in the hall.

"Darn it! This brat managed to slip away, what should I do if the Second Master blames it on me?"

This member of the Zhuo family was anxiously looking around, when someone tapped on his shoulder from behind.

"Are you looking for me?"

The man turned around and saw Su Chengyu, which gave him quite a scare. He quickly denied, "Who are you? I don’t know you."

"Go back and tell your young master, if he wants the secret manual, he needs to exchange it with medicinal herbs! Considering Zhuo Family’s influence in Danyang, getting two or three more thousand-year-old medicinal herbs shouldn’t be a problem. But don’t think about seizing it by force, I can destroy the secret manuals any time."

The man from the Zhuo family stopped pretending and quickly replied, "Of course not! Our Zhuo Family is an established and reputable family in Danyang and the host of this trade conference. We’ve always been above board and would never resort to robbery! Our Second Master has already returned home to discuss collecting herbs with the family head."

"Once you have the herbs, contact me on this number."

Su Chengyu left his phone number with the Zhuo family member, then left the convention center with Lin Chuxue and Yu Yanshu.

With the Earth Rune in his possession, he planned to visit Libo Garden that night, dig out the treasure buried underground, and find out exactly what it was.

After Su Chengyu left, the member of the Zhuo Family promptly contacted Zhuo Kun to report.

"You should return, the surveillance must continue," Zhuo Kun said and hung up.

The Zhuo family was determined to acquire Su Chengyu’s two secret manuals. While they were indeed thinking about collecting medicinal herbs, the rarity of thousand-year-old medicinal herbs made this a challenging task even for the Zhuo family.

Using force as a last resort would damage their reputation, Zhuo family did care about appearances afterall.

However, if they couldn’t gather enough medicinal herbs, the Zhuo family wasn’t going to abandon the idea of forcibly seizing the manuals.

"To my knowledge, the Jin family has two thousand-year-old medicinal herbs and the Shen family has one. We could just buy the herbs from them," Zhuo Kun suggested.

"I’ll personally call Jin Zhenghao and Shen Yongji to discuss this."

The Zhuo family head, Zhuo Qian, decided to intervene personally to put pressure on the Jin and Shen families, both of which were Martial Arts families. Although the thousand-year-old medicinal herbs were expensive, their family wasn’t short on money.

An Earth Rank secret manual is an inheritance, it has the power to reinvigorate a family. No matter how expensive the medicinal herbs are, they can’t compare to the value of a secret manual.

Jin Zhenghao knew that the Zhuo family had already obtained one of the secret manuals and was quite anxious. The Jin family had originally planned to snatch them by force, but it seemed the Zhuo family was eyeing the same prize, making the plan difficult to execute.

After discussing, Jin Zhenghao also decided to buy the herbs from the Shen family. This way, they could directly exchange for the secret manual.

When Jin Zhenghao received a call from Zhuo Qian, and heard him suggesting buying the herbs, Jin Zhenghao immediately understood his intention.

"Brother Zhuo, you have already obtained one secret manual, you should leave some for me as well. The other manual should be mine. I have two herbs in my possession, and Shen has agreed to sell his herb to me. As for this manual, I am also determined to have it."

Jin Zhenghao replied on the phone.

Hearing this, Zhuo Qian understood that there was no way he could get the herbs from the Jin Family. He hung up the phone with a look of anger.

"Good one, Jin Zhenghao, you’re pretty quick. You’ve even discussed it with Shen Yongji already. It seems like if we want this secret manual, we have to snatch it. We really don’t have any other choice," Zhuo Qian said with a gloomy face.

"Why would Shen Yongji readily agree to sell the herbs to Jin Zhenghao? When it comes to an Earth Rank secret manual, Shen Yongji is not one to be trifled with," Zhuo Kun questioned.

"It doesn’t matter anymore. Even if Shen Yongji hasn’t agreed, Jin Zhenghao will definitely not sell the herbs to us! Anyhow, the option to exchange is now off the table!" Zhuo Qian declared.

"Then, we can only snatch it!" Zhuo Kun immediately decided.

"While I am considerably gentle and peace-loving and do not resort to violence, the situation leaves me no other choice. The secret manual must not land in the hands of the Jin family. Let’s plan on how to snatch it!" Zhuo Qian said with a malicious glint in his eyes.
