1430: Effortless

Effortless

0It was beyond comprehension why he was startled when Feng Jiu suddenly opened her eyes. His heart was pounding violently. If he had not held back from screaming, he would have really lost his composure in front of others.

"Cough!"

He coughed, holding his fist in front of his mouth while pondering inwardly. If he were screaming, it would be a blow to his image. 

However, the sharp and cold light in the boy's eyes when he opened his eyes was surprising. His vigilance was very strong. It was not like that of a Foundation Building cultivator.

"No need, I just took a short nap. I got clothes, too." She smiled with her eyes narrowed to a crescent and looked at everyone. "Are we going to rest here tonight?"

"Mm, let's rest for a while!" He answered and walked over to sit next to Feng Jiu. But, when he just sat down, Feng Jiu jumped up.

"What's wrong?" Chen Dao was startled, looking at the abruptly standing Feng Jiu.

"Senior Brother Chen, look, the Specter Grass!" She pointed to the reappearing pair of Specter Grasses. Her eyes were shining.

Chen Dao took a glance, and sure enough, the Specter Grass appeared again. But, he was not interested. "This thing is too difficult to catch. Since you can't pick it, let's leave some strength to rest!"

Several other alchemists noticed the grass, too. They recalled their losses because of the Specter Grass. Even though their hearts were stirred, they made no movement. They knew their own strength. If they couldn't pick these two Specter Grasses and this matter was not handled well, they would repeat the same mistake. Forget it!

"Don't you want it either, Senior Brothers?" Feng Jiu asked several of them with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Dao glanced at him and smiled. "Kid, from what you said, do you perhaps want to pick them? If you have the skill to get them, I can help you to refine any medicinal pills you need, as long as all the herbs are gathered."

"Tch!"

Those alchemists sneered and glanced at Feng Jiu contemptuously, "Can you catch the Specter Grass grass that we were unable to pick? You overestimate yourself."

"Hey hey, since everybody doesn't want them, I'll go and grab them!" She ignored their contempt and walked with a grin toward the two Specter Grasses not far away.

At the resting place, everyone seeing this scene was not feeling sleepy. Each one of them watched the figure in blue attentively, wanting to see the boy made a fool of himself. Surprisingly, she groped inside her cosmos sack and found a fishing net.

The crowd stared blankly with a strange expression on their faces. They saw the boy step forward softly while focusing his gaze at the two Specter Grasses a distance away. Then, he started his move and the net spread over one of the grass.

"Ah!"

Someone stood up with an exclamation. He stared at the front with eyes open wide, looking very excited. "He caught it!"

Yes, the boy caught the Specter Grass. 

Feng Jiu looked at the Specter Grass inside the net and laughed loudly. She was familiar with the growth properties of the Specter Grass, so she took a thin thread, tied it to one she had caught and released it.

The other plant moved up and kept a short distance away. At the next moment, Feng Jiu spread the net and caught the other one effortlessly. She put the two Specter Grasses directly into the space.

The Specter Grass was split into male and female. If the male plant was caught, the female would linger. If the female plant was caught, the male would escape quickly. Therefore, as long as she caught the male plant first, she could naturally catch both of them.
