Chapter 2090: Chapter 2110 Who Doesn’t Have a Story?_1

The perception of immortals was exceptionally keen, so once they had caught the scent, they naturally found the source of the fragrance easily.

Underneath the mountain stream, a cluster of red Jade Orchid Mushrooms tightly huddled together, emitting a strong aroma.

Lin Chen carefully examined them and said with a laugh, "Following Fellow Xiao indeed ensures a rich harvest. This patch of Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms has at least twenty or so, which constitutes a not insignificant income."

Hong Guilin asked, "Red Jade Orchid Mushroom? I’ve never heard of it. Is it valuable?"

Lin Chen smiled and explained, "While the Red Jade Orchid Mushroom itself doesn’t provide any direct aid to one’s strength, it can be used to produce the Red Jade Pill. If consumed by females, it greatly improves their constitution and softens the skin. In a single phrase, it makes a woman more womanly. Hence, the Red Jade Pill is a rare treasure in the eyes of female cultivators."

"These twenty or so Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms could refine up to ten batches of Red Jade Pills. If sold in the market, their value is no less than that of strength-enhancing elixirs, perhaps even pricier."

The others listened and understood instantly.

Women!

Understandable!

Xiao Shubo and Song Jun were fine, but the eyes of Hong Guilin were shining brightly, and even the characteristically tranquil and cold Lu Xinyan’s eyes were excited, demonstrating an eagerness to try.

Clearly, both women were tempted.

Hong Guilin asked, "Friend Lin, aren’t you an alchemist? Can you refine Red Jade Pills?"

Lin Chen laughed, "The Red Jade Pill is a high-grade elixir, and the techniques required for its refinement are highly demanding. Furthermore, since it doesn’t enhance one’s strength and the Red Jade Orchid Mushroom is rare, many alchemists do not make it."

Just as the two women showed a disappointed look, Lin Chen slightly smiled, "I’ve never refined it before, but... I believe I can."

Hong Guilin’s eyes brightened instantly, "If the over twenty Jade Orchid Mushrooms are divided equally, everyone should get about four. Could you help us refine the Red Jade Pill you mentioned? I can pay a handling fee..."

It is agreed within their adventurous team, if the acquired objects can be divided into five parts, then they will be divided equally. Any excess or scarcity will be arranged for redistribution later.

Lin Chen didn’t mention anything about the Divine Light Bamboo Core, he readily replied: "Sure!"

Joy flooded Hong Guilin’s face, "Thank you, Friend Lin. You really are a kind-hearted person."

Lin Chen smiled, "It’s merely a small effort on my part. Let’s harvest them first."

Just when they were about to start harvesting, three golden lights cut across the sky and stopped abruptly.

Three men dressed in golden robes, upon seeing Lin Chen’s group, moved instantly and appeared right in front of them. Their gaze went through the crowd and then unexpectedly landed on Xiao Shubo’s face.

"Oh, Xiao Shubo, it is actually you!"

Xiao Shubo’s face suddenly turned ghastly, and a hint of veiled anger flashed through his eyes.

"Brother Chen, long time no see."

The leading man laughed out loud, "Don’t you try to attach yourself to me. You were expelled long ago, you’re no longer a disciple of my Sea Shark Sect, so don’t address me as ’Brother’."

Xiao Shubo maintained a cold face without uttering a word.

The gazes of Lin Chen and the others fell on Xiao Shubo’s face with stunned expressions. "The Sea Shark Sect? Expelled? It Seems that Xiao Shubo too, has a story of his own."

The leading man inspected them scornfully.

Not one among the five of them wore a sect’s robe, indicating they were probably Loose Cultivators without any significant background.

Sect disciples often wear robes adorned with their Sect’s motif. This is not only a matter of pride but also a show of confidence.

The man’s gaze fell on the mushrooms under the mountain stream, and his eyes instantly brightened. "Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms, such a wonderful find indeed. Haha, I knew it as soon as I caught the scent from afar. We’re really lucky..."

Xiao Shubo said solemnly, "We discovered these Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms first."

The man laughed uproariously, "Xiao Shubo, don’t be ridiculous. Everything in this Secret Realm is ownerless. Whoever obtains it, owns it. Not to mention these Red Jade Orchid Mushrooms haven’t been harvested yet, even if they were, do you really think you would be the one to keep them?"

He was straightforward. "Even if you’ve already harvested it, I can still take it from you."

Xiao Shubo clenched his fist while his gaze grew colder.

The man squinted slightly and a cold smile appeared on his face, "What? You disagree? If you do then fight me, no? You were praised for having impressive talent. Your current strength should be quite formidable, reaching the Fairy level, right? Well, come at me!"

Xiao Shubo didn’t move, but his fists tightened even more fiercely.

The man’s tone suddenly turned icy, "Even if you have the ability, do you have the guts? Your whole Xiao Family lives within the area controlled by my Sea Shark Sect. If you were still a part of the Sea Shark Sect, our squabble could be seen as an in-house conflict, and I would only teach you a personal lesson. But now, if you dare to provoke me, I won’t hesitate to annihilate your entire family!"

Xiao Shubo’s eyes suddenly turned red.
