112: Divine Stone of Heaven and Earth

Nangong Yu's expression was a little troubled, "Sister Xingmeng, it should be me who implicated you, I'm sorry!"

Hearing this, Su Xingmeng couldn't help but blink, her face a little confused, "Young Master, why are you suddenly saying such things? Wasn't the other party targeting me?"

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, "It's not that simple. You never encountered assassins before you met me, but now that you've met me, assassins have appeared. It's very likely that fellow Nangong Jinglin did it."

Hearing this, Su Xingmeng's expression couldn't help but change slightly, thinking of Nangong Yu's previous conjecture.

If that were true, it would indeed be a bit troublesome.

Nangong Yu said apologetically, "Sister Xingmeng, this matter very likely started because of me. Why don't you continue to follow me for now? With Mother and Aunt Shen by my side, those assassins wouldn't dare to approach. When the danger is lifted, you are free to stay or leave, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in the depths of Su Xingmeng's eyes, but it seemed even she didn't notice it.

She pondered for a moment, then cupped her hands and said, "Then I thank Little Prince."

"Sister Xingmeng, you jest. This matter very likely started because of me, so this is what I should do."

Nangong Yu smiled and waved his hand, a hint of amusement flashing in the depths of his eyes.

This was a bit of his planning!

Su Xingmeng's Dao Manifestation Spiritual Root was extremely extraordinary, and her future achievements might be unusual.

He planned to keep Su Xingmeng by his side for a while to see if she could be used by him. If so, imparting the Dao Manifestation Heavenly Book to her would be fine!

If not, then the Dao Manifestation Heavenly Book would just gather dust in the Time-Space Merchant Guild!

Everyone finished dinner and sat in the courtyard to rest.

But not long after, Nangong Yu's consciousness slipped into the Time-Space Merchant Guild, falling asleep?

Seeing this, Shangguan Yuexi couldn't help but chuckle, "This Little Fellow has been a bit sleepy since childhood. I'll take him to rest first. You all can rest if you need to, or Cultivate if you want."

With that, she carried Nangong Yu away.

Watching the two leave, Qing Ling couldn't help but blink. She still hadn't told Young Master what she had learned today, had she?

But her hesitation lasted only an instant before she gave up.

Young Master is already asleep, so she'll tell him later!

She thought to herself, but quickly followed. As Nangong Yu's maid, she had to follow!

...In the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

Nangong Yu's mind stirred, and he arrived before a row of glass shelves, on which were displayed various leafless saplings, or more accurately, Spiritual Roots!

In Xuanling Continent, if one had a Heaven-Defying Opportunity, a Spiritual Root could be Acquired, but there was absolutely no way to bestow a complete Spiritual Root upon others!

But precisely, the Time-Space Merchant Guild could!

As long as Nangong Yu was willing, he could exchange for these Spiritual Roots and bestow them upon others!

This was why he had said those words when he learned of Qing Ling's feelings that day.

Nangong Yu thought of Qing Ling's loyalty over the past three years and decided to secure a benefit for her.

But as he glanced at the various Spiritual Roots, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "The highest is only an Earthly Spiritual Root. For Qing Ling, as my maid, wouldn't that be a bit lacking?"

Nangong Yu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "In a couple of days, after I refine and sell a batch of spirit king pills, the fourth floor of the Time-Space Merchant Guild should open. We'll see then!"

The Time-Space Merchant Guild requires one trillion cumulative points to open the fourth floor, but selling 10,000 special-grade spirit king pills would earn him 1.8 trillion points, which is enough to open the fourth floor!

Thinking of this, Nangong Yu immediately exchanged for 100 more sets of Spirit Medicine for spirit king pills.

It wasn't that he didn't want to exchange for 1,000 sets directly, but he didn't have enough points.

He only had 6.3 billion points, and each set of Spirit Medicine required 40 million points, so he could only exchange for a batch first and then resell them!

Afterward, Nangong Yu was about to leave when he glanced at the glass shelf, "A Supreme-grade Spiritual Root only needs ten million points, perhaps..."

A faint light flickered in Nangong Yu's eyes, and then he turned and left the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

He slowly opened his eyes, only to see his mother sitting beside him Cultivating, so he closed his eyes again.

'Breaking through to the Spirit King Realm now requires the power of heaven and earth, which seems impossible in this Mortal Realm. But going to the Sacred Realm wouldn't be very suitable!'

Nangong Yu secretly thought, feeling a bit hesitant. Although with Hidden Abyss concealing him, he might be able to return from the Sacred Realm, he didn't know how long it would take, and just thinking about it didn't feel right!

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, feeling somewhat helpless.

'Wait!'

'Time-Space Merchant Guild?'

Thinking of his Golden Finger, Nangong Yu's expression brightened, and his consciousness once again entered the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

Indeed!

He really had what he wanted!

[Heaven and Earth Divine Stone: A special spiritual item between heaven and earth, containing abundant and pure power of heaven and earth.

Placing the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone in a Cultivator's grotto-heaven allows the power of heaven and earth within it to be drawn out by the Cultivator, assisting them in purifying themselves and Breaking through to the Spirit King Realm!

Note: The power of heaven and earth in one Heaven and Earth Divine Stone can help ten people Break through to the Spirit King Realm!

Exchange Price: 100 billion points!]

"Something I can't afford yet!"

Nangong Yu mumbled, but didn't think much of it.

After he refines two batches of spirit king pills in the next two days, he can exchange for it!

Nangong Yu felt anticipation, and his mood brightened considerably!

"When the fourth floor of the Time-Space Merchant Guild opens, I'll get Mother an even better Spiritual Root, or even a powerful Physique wouldn't be out of the question!"

Nangong Yu muttered a few words, then turned and left the Time-Space Merchant Guild... The next day, early morning.

Nangong Yu and the others arrived at the Supervision Office. Those who passed by all avoided them, fearing to provoke this Little Fellow!

Seeing this, Nangong Yu merely glanced at them and didn't look further.

"Did you hear? Instructor Ye of the Supervision Office voluntarily severed an arm, feeling unable to serve as an Instructor, and resigned yesterday!"

"Instructor Ye was quite amiable, and he only taught Cultivation common sense. It seems he could still do it with one arm, so why..."

"You don't understand. Having an arm severed in the Supervision Office, he must have been disappointed with the Supervision Office."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I was there yesterday. Prince of Zhenbei said that the Instructor who saw it and did nothing was him. He was probably dismissed by Dean Han, but 'resigned' just sounds better!"

"Indeed, I also saw him. He glanced at it and left without doing anything."

"Oh, so that's why Prince of Zhenbei said that. He must have known something!"

"Who's to say he didn't?"

"Stop talking, Prince of Zhenbei is coming this way."

Hearing this, the few people turned to look into the distance and saw Nangong Yu approaching with several others. They quickly shut up and hurried away!

Nangong Yu naturally heard those words, but they were just minor matters, and he couldn't be bothered to deal with them.

He looked at Su Xingmeng, "Sister Xingmeng, today is a Cultivation guidance class, which isn't very useful for the three of us. Why don't we go to the Scripture Pavilion first?"

"As for the other auxiliary classes, they are almost daily, so we can watch them later."

Hearing this, Su Xingmeng was a little moved, but also couldn't help but hesitate.
