Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort-Chapter 466: Lord’s Cousin (Part 6)
Si Mo’s slender fingers pulled out the map from her hand, slowly spread it out before her, and pointed to the Mimeng Forest: "This forest was the only thing the Medicine Tower asked for from the Yu Country’s Imperial Family when they entered Yu Country. Do you say it’s ordinary?"
Mu Qingge frowned, pursed her lips, and looked at the map of Mimeng Forest without speaking.
"Actually, Mimeng Forest is not that mysterious; it’s just a natural treasure trove of medicinal materials. To those who practice alchemy, herbs are as vital as life. A place like this is simply a treasure, and how could the Medicine Tower be indifferent? Of course, in Linchuan territory, almost every forest has medicinal materials, but none have as many types and quantities as Mimeng Forest. The most important thing is that many rare medicinal materials grow exceptionally well in Mimeng Forest and cannot survive once removed from the land. So, the major reason the Medicine Tower chose to establish a branch in Yu Country is the treasure of Mimeng Forest. Selecting talented alchemists is merely a sideline." Si Mo couldn’t help but laugh after explaining.
It was amusing to think of those old fools almost fighting to the death over a few plants.
"So that’s it." Mu Qingge finally understood.
"Every year, the Medicine Tower Branch transports a large amount of medicinal materials and the selected talented alchemists back to the headquarters." Suddenly, Si Mo said something ambiguous.
Mu Qingge’s eyes brightened, but she understood.
The headquarters of the Medicine Tower is located within the Holy Yuan Empire. And Rong Country is close to the Holy Yuan Empire.
If she can seize this opportunity to board the Medicine Tower’s ship across the Sea of No Desire, enter the Holy Yuan Empire, and then seek an opportunity to go to Rong Country, it would shorten her journey and reduce the risks involved.
Without showing any emotion, she glanced at Si Mo and did not speak.
...
With the Flame Horse’s pace, after nearly a month of traveling, they finally arrived at Sangzhi City.
However, the team arriving at Sangzhi City had thinned significantly.
Besides Mu Qingge, only the two maidservants You He were accompanying her. Naturally, Si Mo was beside her.
The Dragon Tooth Guards led by Mo Yang had been instructed by Mu Qingge to join the nearest Thousand Fierce Army to continue their cultivation upon entering Yu Country.
Of course, Mo Yang had another task.
That task was to thoroughly investigate the background of the woman named Feng Niang in Sunset Town.
Mu Qingge suspected she might be the Eldest Princess of Li Country, but she was even more curious about her husband named Mu Yi, whether he was a man of Linchuan.
Mo Yang, besides unraveling the ins and outs of the whole matter, if possible, hoped to meet Feng Niang again to ask about Mu Yi’s disappearance face to face. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Mu Qingge admitted that she was somewhat careless at first.
Although Feng Niang had produced a demigodly dagger, she initially thought Mu Yi may have had an accident in Sunset Forest, or for some other reason, was forced to leave, unable to send any message back.
However, after hearing the story of the Eldest Princess of Li Country, Mu Qingge felt the matter was not simple.
If Feng Niang is indeed the Eldest Princess of Li Country, then why would the man with formidable combat power from the story have an accident in the mere Sunset Forest?
Moreover, even if he was forced to leave, how could he have no way to send a message back, leaving his wife waiting in vain for ten years?
Overall, this matter is full of suspicions, arousing Mu Qingge’s curiosity to see the truth.
The mighty team had dwindled down to four people.
Naturally, they forsook the carriage. Even the Flame Horses were temporarily left in the surrounding forests, waiting for a call.
