Chapter 499: Chapter 435 Bloodstained Battlefield + Chapter 436 Pinghu Crisis_3

Zhou Ping’an set down his teacup, rubbed his brow, and forcibly pulled on the starlight, which was excessively draining. He had been rushing about for days and felt mentally exhausted.

At this moment, listening to the various reports was somewhat relaxing.

Fortunately, the thread of Wish Power that accrued daily in his mind had not lessened but was increasing bit by bit. Thus, there was nothing pressing to worry about.

"Senior Sister Zhan is strong-willed and gets easily carried away in a fight," he said as he sent a message, "For now, focus on delaying actions; there’s no need for a direct confrontation. If you see real danger, retreat to the eastern shores."

"Yes."

Green Lady nodded in response, refilled Zhou Ping’an’s cup of tea, and then brought out a small cloth bag from the side. She took out the Jade Vial and smiled, "Sister Huaiyu has some good news. This time, the Black Mountain Herb Gathering Team found three Sky-reaching Extreme Intent Grasses. Using them as the main ingredient, they crafted two batches of Ultimate Intent Elixirs and sent over two vials. Oh, and they also sent over one Sky-reaching Extreme Intent Grass."

"That truly is good news."

Zhou Ping’an took the two Jade Vials, placed them on the table, opened them to look, and saw each vial contained nine pearly white elixirs. He sniffed them and immediately felt a surge of vitality.

His slight fatigue swept away instantly.

At the same time, the Breaking Army Blade Intent inside his mind seemed to react, resonating faintly like the sound of a blade.

"Top-grade elixir, even the Ultimate Intent Elixirs turned out to be top-grade. Has Elder Qing broken through his Martial Intent Level?"

Zhou Ping’an’s eyes lit up.

Such elixirs were incredibly rare and, in some aspects, even more precious than the Yellow Sprout Pills that accelerate True Qi cultivation.

Back in Cloud Water Sect, Zhou Ping’an had copied some Pill Recipes and had also received a vial of Yellow Sprout Pills from Su Lianxue, but he didn’t have any Ultimate Intent Elixirs.

These elixirs were excellent for enhancing determination and integrating Martial Intent, but because the main ingredient was hard to find, whenever they appeared as a Sect mission, they would be snatched up immediately.

Zhou Ping’an, having control of the Black Mountain resource area, sent out hundreds or thousands of herb gatherers each day to aimlessly search the mountain. After such a long time, they had only found the Sky-reaching Extreme Intent Grass once, which was surprisingly unlucky given the usual odds.

Truly valuable medicinal herbs were this hard to encounter; they were something one could only come across by chance, not through seeking.

Unless one cultivated them oneself.

And that precisely was why Lin Huaiyu sent a Sky-reaching Extreme Intent Grass and hadn’t used them all to make elixirs.

Although she didn’t know that Zhou Ping’an had spatial land that could accelerate the growth of herbs.

But, since Zhou Ping’an hadn’t hidden the fact he brought out some herbs each time,

She could guess there was something fishy about it.

"Is Little Jiu not bringing any gifts?" he asked.

"She did bring something indeed."

Green Lady cheerfully picked up a piece of silk fabric.

She handed it over.

Zhou Ping’an took it and saw a majestic and spirited Little Monkey embroidered on it, wielding a golden staff, with an eyebrow raised and gazing into the distance—the likeness was vivid.

"Did she embroider this? Well, it indeed resembles quite well; she even captured the rebellious spirit. This child has a gift," Zhou Ping’an said with a grin that couldn’t be suppressed.

Upon looking at the vivid silk for a while longer, he thought that in another month, it would be Little Jiu’er’s birthday, and by then, he would need to prepare a rather novel gift for her.

However, in this era, learning embroidery and etiquette was probably enough for now. When he returned next time, he would start teaching her martial arts.

With Little Jiu’er’s fortune and perceptiveness, her future achievements would likely not fall short of her sister’s.

"This vial is for your cultivation."

Zhou Ping’an picked up one vial of Ultimate Intent Elixir, stored it in his spatial (space), and passed another vial to Green Lady.

She had just changed her Cultivation Technique, and her progress was rapid. With just a bit more enhancement in her Martial Intent, she could immediately become the fourth strongest in their faction. Unless she encountered a Heavenly Resonance Rank Grandmaster-level opponent, she would be nearly unbeatable.

Such combat power, overseeing a territory, was not something to worry about.

After all, encountering even two Grandmaster-level experts in an entire province was rare, and they truly weren’t common.

Instead, guarding against those reclusive old eccentrics in the True Martial Realm, who numbered somewhat more.

But these old eccentrics, who pride themselves on their status, each being a powerhouse in their own right, really wouldn’t react over trivial matters.

Green Lady wouldn’t encounter them either.

"For me?"

Green Lady’s face showed difficulty.

Although she also needed this kind of elixir that sped up Cultivation of Martial Intent, she understood better than anyone that good steel had to be used on the blade’s edge.

Currently, the stability of the Three Counties of Liyou depended entirely on Zhou Ping’an; the stronger he was, the safer they were.

It was better to concentrate all resources on one person rather than bringing everyone up at once.

"It’s alright, in a bit of time, we won’t lack this kind of elixir. I have a method."

What restricted Zhou Ping’an’s practice wasn’t resources or elixirs, but rather territory and population.

As long as he could gather momentum, accumulate good fortune, and loosen the bottlenecks in Cultivation, he could rapidly progress.

Having this shortcut ahead, why wouldn’t he take it?

He sensed the increasingly dense fog of Star Force within his body and thought, "Soon, I’ll be able to expand my territory. Let them run wild a bit longer in Guangyun County..."

Zhou Ping’an sternly said, "Just take it if I tell you to; if you become stronger, I’ll have less to worry about when I’m not around."

Green Lady’s heart trembled slightly, her eyes reddened a bit, and she accepted the vial of elixir with a smile. She added, "All the other matters have been handled as well. Now, above the Li River, there are no more traces of Water Demons. Either they’ve been killed off, or they’ve flowed downstream, escaping this section of the river."
