Martial Peak

As the three marched forward, they constantly released their Divine Senses into the surrounding snow and after a while, the face of the woman wearing thin clothes lit up as she pointed in a certain direction, “There should be spirit medicines over there!”

Saying so, she hurriedly led the other two over.

After crossing several hundred meters, the three worked together to clear a couple meters of snow, slowly revealing a plant which resembled fine ice crystals, it’s stem and leaves all glittered in the afternoon sun, giving it a beautiful and dazzling appearance.

Atop the plant were a few thumbnail-sized snow-white fruits which gave off a light appealing fragrance.

“Senior Sister Ji is amazing, you even managed to find White Jade Fruit buried so deep under the snow!” The younger woman happily applauded.

Ji Meng smiled as she glanced over at Zhu Ying Yue and warmly said, “You should pay closer attention to your surroundings and I’m sure you’ll also be able to find some.”

Zhu Ying Yue pursed her lips and pouted, “I’ve tried my best but every time Elder Sister Ji finds them first, even Senior Brother Qi isn’t your match.”

Qi Chao Wen felt a little disgruntled hearing these words and shot back, “Are you implying that I’m weak?”

Zhu Ying Yue just snorted, “You’re at least worse than Senior Sister Ji.”

Ji Meng tapped the young girl’s head gently, “When we go back you’ll have a share too, so don’t be discouraged.”

The latter innocently nodded her head.

Qi Chao stepped forward at that time and said, “Let’s pick these first. Make sure not to hurt the roots or stem. After a few years, it will bear more White Jade Fruit.”

Ji Meng nodded and stretched out her jade hand, carefully picking the small fruits and storing them into her Universe Bag.

For these kinds of spirits medicines that could continuously bear fruit, cultivators would generally not collect the whole plant as this was akin to killing an egg-laying chicken, reducing the overall amount of spirit grasses and spirit medicines in the world.

Obtaining this harvest, the three people looked very happy but suddenly, Qi Chao and Ji Meng frowned, both of them turning to stare at a spot in the distance, a look of vigilance appearing on their faces.

The two of them had just noticed that someone was quickly approaching them.

A vague figure appeared on the horizon and after a short moment, a young man appeared in front of them, stopping a couple dozen meters away from them.

Yang Kai saw the wariness in these three’s eyes but didn’t pay it any mind. In this wilderness, anyone who suddenly met a stranger would become somewhat vigilant.

It was the same for him, before he had approached them, he had determined their strength wasn’t enough to threaten him so he had decided to appear in an upfront manner.

If the other party had a Second Order Transcendent member among their ranks, Yang Kai would naturally have avoided them.

These three weren’t too old, at least not much older than he was, so communicating with them should be relatively easy.

Yang Kai nodded slightly, revealing a friendly smile.
