158: Chapter 158 Dismantling a Drug Trafficking Gang's Den

Two minutes later, Xiao Yuchen entered the tropical rainforest. With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he quickly located the drug trafficking gang's village.

Xiao Yuchen flew directly above the village and released the Purple Heart Sacred Fire.

The Purple Heart Sacred Fire split into dozens of small flames in the air, and then, as if they had tracking capabilities, they landed on every single person in the village.

Instantly, screams rose one after another, but they quickly vanished completely.

Having taken care of everyone in a single move, Xiao Yuchen confiscated all the weapons and drugs, placed them into his System Inventory, and then vanished instantly. Two minutes later, he appeared at the military hospital.

Seeing Xiao Yuchen suddenly return, Wang Weiguo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and comforted him: "Did you not find the drug trafficking gang's hideout? It is easy to lose one's way in that tropical rainforest. Even if we go inside, it takes us a long time to search, so it is normal not to find it. Let us lead the way for you."

"No, I have already eliminated them all. Their weapons and drugs have also been confiscated by me. However, there are too many weapons. If it is convenient, take me to your military headquarters to have a look."

"What? You eliminated them? How is that possible? You have only been gone for ten minutes. In ten minutes, you traveled hundreds of kilometers back and forth and even eliminated the bandits?"

It was not that Wang Weiguo did not believe Xiao Yuchen's words, but Xiao Yuchen's speed was simply too fast. His heart was overwhelmed with shock, and he did not know how to make himself accept this fact.

"Well, confiscating the weapons and drugs wasted some time; otherwise, it might have been faster."

Hearing Xiao Yuchen say this, Wang Weiguo finally believed that Xiao Yuchen had indeed come from the Nangong Family.

"Alright, Brother Xiao, accompany me to the military base. You all stay here to take care of Xiao Yan." Wang Weiguo instructed.

"I want to go back too. My body is already fine. I do not want to stay in the hospital."

Hearing Nangong Yan's words, Wang Weiguo looked at Xiao Yuchen, as if seeking his opinion.

"Let Uncle Nangong come along. His body is no longer in any serious trouble; resting for two days will be enough."

"Alright then, we will go back together. By the way, Xiao Yan, just have Senior Nangong return to the military base."

"Okay, I will call my father right now."

...

Xiao Yuchen and Wang Weiguo's group arrived at the military base. Feeling the atmosphere of the base and watching the soldiers training, Xiao Yuchen's blood also began to boil.

Under Wang Weiguo's guidance, Xiao Yuchen came to the logistics supply department, where weapons and ammunition for daily training and mission execution were usually collected.

Xiao Yuchen came here naturally to leave the confiscated weapons with the military. These items were useless to him, but to the military, they were treasures.

When Wang Weiguo and the others saw that Xiao Yuchen had actually taken out dozens of AK rifles, over a dozen rocket launchers, three crates of artillery shells, and over a dozen crates of ammunition, they were also extremely shocked.

"Xiao... Brother Xiao, are you a magician? How did you bring out so many weapons?" Wang Weiguo could not help but ask.

"Just assume I am a magician. Let me show you another big trick."

As he spoke, Xiao Yuchen actually took out over a dozen off-road vehicles and three trucks from his System Inventory. These had all been in the village, and leaving them there would be a waste, so Xiao Yuchen had confiscated them all.

"This... Holy shit!"

Wang Weiguo did not know how to describe the shock in his heart and actually cursed out loud.

"I have brought you everything useful from the drug trafficking gang. Those drugs are in the trunk of the off-road vehicle in front of you. There is quite a large quantity."

"Xiao Li, find a few people to count and inventory the equipment here. Also, these vehicles will be left for the military to use from now on. Have all the drugs in the vehicles collected and destroyed immediately."

"Yes, Officer."

Wang Weiguo gave the instructions and then left the place with Xiao Yuchen.

Two hours later, Nangong Wentian also arrived at the military base. Seeing his son appear before him, full of life and vigor, Nangong Wentian actually shed tears.

Nangong Yan was his youngest son, born when he was over fifty years old; he could be considered a child born in his later years. Moreover, Nangong Yan had great talent for Cultivate and had been Cultivating in the military. At just thirty years old, he had already reached the Early Stage of the Martial God realm.

If his son had died, he truly would not have been able to bear it. Thinking of this, Nangong Wentian walked directly in front of Xiao Yuchen and bowed deeply to him once again.

"Xiao Chen, thank you very much this time. Not only did you save Xiao Yan, but you also destroyed the drug trafficking gang's hideout. On the way here, I already spoke to the elders of Daxia about you, and they unanimously agreed to let you become the second Guardian of Daxia.

Furthermore, just as I promised you before, you will possess the status of a Guardian and enjoy the rights of a Guardian, but you will not be subject to any restrictions. You will remain a free man."

Hearing Nangong Wentian's words, Wang Weiguo and the others were shocked. Then, they all saluted Xiao Yuchen together. Xiao Yuchen's strength had completely convinced them; he was absolutely qualified to become a Guardian.

"Senior Nangong, you are too polite. It was also because of your influence that I thought about doing something for Daxia. By the way, I have some other matters to attend to, so I will not be returning to Yanjing. Did you bring the millennium ginseng and verbena?"

When leaving the Nangong Family, Xiao Yuchen had sent a message to Nangong Wentian, asking him to bring the millennium ginseng and verbena along.

The reason he did not want to go back was that Xiao Yuchen had noticed Nangong Xue's affection for him. He did not know how to face Nangong Xue, and he also needed to go search for the bone-mending and tendon-melting flower and the tianshan snow lotus.

"I brought them, but are you really not going back to Yanjing? Xiao Xue just met you, her benefactor; if you leave just like this, she will be very sad."

Nangong Wentian naturally had his own little agenda; Xiao Yuchen was simply too outstanding, and he hoped his granddaughter could be with Xiao Yuchen.

"Another day. I have already exchanged contact information with Nangong Xue, and we can keep in touch anytime in the future. Right now, I am still missing two important Spirit Medicines. Since this place is not far from Tianshan, I want to go there and take a look; perhaps I might find the tianshan snow lotus."

Hearing Xiao Yuchen say this, Nangong Wentian did not insist. He also knew that matters of fate could not be forced; it required both people to have feelings for each other.

"Alright, great kindness needs no thanks. You are welcome to visit my Nangong Family at any time."

"Good. If Daxia encounters any problems it cannot solve, be sure to notify me. If it is within my power, I will never refuse."

Knowing that he could no longer persuade him to stay, Nangong Wentian handed the verbena and millennium ginseng to Xiao Yuchen.

After obtaining the Spirit Medicine, Xiao Yuchen did not hesitate. He cupped his hands to bid farewell to everyone, then stepped into the Void Realm and vanished before their eyes, soon arriving at Tianshan.

In fact, there are Tianshan Snow Lotuses for sale on the market, but what is sold on the market are all dried snow lotuses, and what Xiao Yuchen needed was a fresh snow lotus with its petals intact.

However, once a snow lotus is picked, it quickly withers. Therefore, if Xiao Yuchen wanted to obtain a fresh tianshan snow lotus, he had to go search for it himself.

Once he picked the snow lotus and placed it into his System Space, he could keep it fresh indefinitely.

With a plan in mind, it took Xiao Yuchen only a few minutes to arrive near Tianshan.

The tianshan snow lotus generally grows on cliffs at an altitude of 2000-4000 meters. Having understood its growth environment, searching for it would be much simpler.
