Chapter 64: Harvesting The Crop!
"Did you track that Chao Li?" A youth asked while looking at the black-clothed youth in front of him.
That youth was Jin Xiang, Deputy Leader Of Grey Eye outer division, and in the past, he offered Chao Li to join his Faction. But Chao Li rejected him and joined the Floating Feather Faction, and from that day onwards, he held a grudge against Chao Li.
Not only that, Black Eye, the little brother of Grey Eye faction leader, also ordered him to keep a tab of Chao Li, so from that day onward, he put some tab on Chao Li's tracks.
And today, the spy he placed came to him to report about Chao Li's recent tracks.
That spy seriously looked at Jin Xiang and replied, "Deputy Leader, I have been secretly following this Chao Li from the past ten days,"
"Um! Humm!" Jin Xiang hummed.
"That Chao Li is somewhat talented that he even admitted to alchemist department, and he even assessed as a topmost talented person in the previous selection." The spy solemnly narrated about Chao Li.
"Humph! His talent can't even be worth single hair to our Faction!" Jin Xiang disdainfully snorted and then added, "After that!"
"Then, he joined as an apprentice under some alchemist!" The spy replied.
"Apprentice, ah! Now he should have realized how foolish of him to reject my offer. Most of the talented alchemists belonged to our three factions, and those alchemists wouldn't have accepted him as an apprentice."
"So he would have been accepted as an apprentice by some low-level alchemist of Floating Feather Faction," Jin Xiang confidently replied.
To his comment, the spy awkwardly replied, "Deputy Head, that Chao Li indeed accepted as an apprentice by some Floating Feather Faction alchemist, but that alchemist is famous alchemist master, Dai Yi."
When Jin Xiang heard Dai Yi's name, he was frozen stiff, and for a second, he couldn't even move a little.
After a few breaths, Jin Xiang came out of shock as he loudly yelled, "What did you say? Dai Yi? The cold demon who would always punish everyone for the slightest mistakes?"
"Even my master is afraid to mess up or even interact that Dai Yi? How could that Chao Li even dare to be his apprentice?" Jin Xiang fearfully bellowed.
"Yes, Deputy Head, that Chao Li is indeed weird and gutsy to select Senior Dai Yi as his master." the spy agreed and continued,
"But according to inside sources, Senior Dai Yi hadn't scolded or punished that Chao Li in these ten days and that Chao Li was carefreely doing the tasks instructed by Senior Dai Yi." The spy disbelievingly replied,
"What the hell are you talking about? Are you sure talking about the same Senior Dai Yi or someone with the same name?" Jin Xiang couldn't believe what he heard.
"Yes, Deputy Head, I am talking about the same senior Dai Yi, and this information I get from Dai Yi's gatekeeper." The spy replied with confidence.
Jin Xiang suddenly became solemn and deeply pondered about what might be the reason for Dai Yi's unusual behavior.
Even after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find the reason for Dai Yi's behavior, and after some time, he thought, "Is this Chao Li really different?"
"Am I failed to measure him correctly?" Jin Xiang questioned his evaluation, and after some time, he solemnly instructed,
"Ok, you can continue monitoring him, but be careful don't get in the radar of Senior Dai Yi, and if you somehow alerted Senior Dai Yi, even I can't save you."
The spy nodded, but at that time, those two completely failed to observe some illusionary green fog around them,
And at that time, in Dai Yi's courtyard, Dai Yi disdainfully muttered, "So, he still fearful to me."
"Humph! I noticed that ant wandering around my courtyard and knew he was someone's spy, so he is after Chao Li, ah!" Dai Yi muttered as if he saw the conversation of Jin Xiang and his spy.
"I will deal with him later. If I do something, it might alert someone and might even cause some doubts about Chao Li. Those two got lucky this time," Dai Yi thought inside.
"Maybe I could use this Jin Xiang to observe Chao Li's character." Dai Yi determined.
Chao Li was oblivious to all these incidents, and he was, as usual, fully immersed in his herb cultivation.
Slowly the days had passed, and another twenty days were gone by, and on that day, his herbs were fully ready for harvesting, and on that day, Dai Yi was also there to inspect the final products of Chao Li.
Dai Yi slowly went forward and plucked Sun Fruit, which was in yellow, emitting strong star energy useful for Ancients.
"What a Great Herb, although I gave you Tier-Two seed, the final product isn't lost to Tier-Three seed at all." Dai Yi mused as he held the herb.
"You would surely get a price three times than the standard, so be sure not to get cheated by some scammers." Dai Yi instructed.
Chao Li nodded, and then Dai Yi also checked Blue Orchid and Shu Grass.
After checking a sample of all the three herbs, Dai Yi solemnly said, "Well, You can start your harvest as everything is ready now."
Chao Li smiled with delight because all his hard work was going to pay finally, and after selling his crop, he could go outside and get Karmic Net Of Overarching Cosmos and then would save his Sister Ning.
He took three large baskets and started harvesting his crop. He gently harvested Sun Fruits first, and then Blue Orchids, and finally Shu Grass.
He could transfer everything into the space inside Book Of Samsara, but he knew that he was a new disciple who wouldn't have any storage devices.
He took a few samples of every herb and immediately went to Sect Missionary Department.
Sect Missionary Department would trade in all the valuable herbs and other things, so Chao Li took samples of his herbs to evaluate them so that he could sell the entire harvest later.
While at that time, nearly after a month, Silver Moon and Black Eye returned to the sect. Behind them, their entire team was also present.
"What a dangerous trip it is! We are unknowingly trapped in some unknown space maze. If it weren't for Lady Silver Moon's might, we would have become a pile of bones." Black Eye said with amazement.
When they were on a mission, they were unknowingly trapped into some independent space dimension.
At that time, Black Eye was completely helpless and fearful, but Silver Moon arranged some mysterious formation, and with that, they escaped from there, and from that moment onward, Black Eye's fear and love towards Silver Moon increased even further.
Silver Moon hadn't cared about Black Eye and looked deep into space while holding something in her hand,
"I got the thing I wanted. Big Sister would be happy for it."
