Chapter 157 - 141: Good Girl_2

For Lu Yan, starting from the second layer, he didn’t need to look. He only needs to focus on the first layer.

"Eighteen kinds of Spirit Grass, which are easy to find, three pounds of Mutated Heart Meat, which are readily available, a second-tier Alien Beast heart, Hidden Blood Land Vein, there happens to be a Blood Armor Lizard King. But this Pure Blood Chamber seems a bit tricky to handle, I wonder if it can be exchanged with combat merits."

Lu Yan pondered.

Having read various miscellaneous books in the Li Family for three months, it was not in vain. He had seen records about the Pure Blood Chamber.

The Pure Blood Chamber could only possibly be born at a second-tier Blood Land Vein. It’s a natural chamber filled with a special fluid, resembling fresh blood, filled with the strong Energy of Earth Blood.

Ordinary Energy of Earth Blood was toxic, but the fluid in the Pure Blood Chamber didn’t contain any toxins. The human body could directly absorb it, and it had the power to heal.

Martial Artists, who fought all year round, would leave internal injuries in their bodies. If they could cultivate in the Pure Blood Chamber for a period of time, it could nourish their bodies and eliminate their internal injuries.

However, the Pure Blood Chamber is very rare. Even a second-tier Blood Land Vein only had the possibility of giving rise to it, not a certainty.

In fact, in the entire six counties of Lingdong, there were only two places with a Pure Blood Chamber.

One was the Zhao Clan of Lingwang City, and the other was the Gao Family of NanYi City.

No wonder the Zhao Clan collected Heart Tempering Decisions, it probably had something to do with them coincidentally owning a Pure Blood Chamber.

"I might as well go ask the two officials from the Legitimate Office."

Lu Yan pondered, and then took out the Heart Tempering Decision again, reading it carefully a few times. He memorized the content inside and went out, heading for the Legitimate Office again.

"How did you come back? Anything you need?"

An old man saw Lu Yan and asked in curiosity.

"Sir, I would like to ask, can your noble Pure Blood Chamber be exchanged for battle merits?"

Lu Yan said with a fist salute.

"Pure Blood Chamber, only has healing effects. What, do you have internal injuries and want to get treatment?"

The old man asked curiously.

"Yes, sir."

Lu Yan nodded.

"Pure Blood Chamber can indeed be exchanged for battle merits. Let me check for you if anyone is using it."

The old man nodded, turned around to leave, came back after a while, and said, "The Pure Blood Chamber is temporarily occupied; you can come back in a month."

"Thank you, sir."

Now that he could exchange battle merits for it, Lu Yan was greatly relieved. Anyway, his materials were not yet ready, a month’s time would be just right.

Upon leaving the Legitimate Office, he came to the largest trader’s alliance in Lingwang City to inquire about the whereabouts of the eighteen kinds of Spiritual Medicine.

The eighteen kinds of Spiritual Medicine were not rare items. Upon inquiring, he bought thirteen kinds. For the remaining five, Lu Yan planned to buy them in Baicao City.

Baicao City was famous for its spiritual medicines which were even more varieties than in Lingwang City.

First, he bought fifteen kinds of Spiritual Medicine. Carrying them on his back, Lu Yan left Lingwang City and headed with full speed towards Baicao City.

On the journey, he did not delay, he was much faster, in less than ten days, he returned to Baicao City.

Immediately summoned Li Quan to inquire about the whereabouts of the remaining five kinds of Spiritual Medicine.

A day later, Li Quan had delivered the remaining five kinds of Spiritual Medicine in front of Lu Yan.

Eighteen kinds of Spiritual Medicine had already been obtained, the Mutated Heart Meat was readily available, and now, only a second-tier Monster King’s heart was left.

Lu Yan, with his knife, arrived at the Blood Land Vein of Changfeng City and acted against the second-tier Blood Armor Lizard King.

The second-tier Blood Armor Lizard King had the fighting strength of a Martial Marquis, and it was not an ordinary one. Ordinary Martial Marquis Level One was not its opponent.

But in front of the current Lu Yan, it was completely insignificant.

With one slash, he stabbed through the Blood Armor Lizard King’s neck.

The Blood Armor Lizard King roared and attacked wildly. After a while, it fell.

Lu Yan cut open the chest of the Blood Armor Lizard King, cut out its heart, and put it into a food box made of Red Blood Jade.

The rest of the Blood Armor Lizard King’s meat of course should not be wasted.

The Blood Armor Lizard King was not mutated, so all its blood and flesh could be used. This Blood Armor Lizard King was estimated to weigh about two thousand catties.

The value was astonishing.

Because the meat of a second-tier Alien Beast, which normally hasn’t undergone cooking, costs twenty silver per catty.

The meat of second-tier Monster King is more expensive, at least forty silver per catty.

Two thousand catties is worth eighty thousand silver.

Lu Yan divided it into pieces and secretly transported it back to Baicao City, having Li Quan and Wang Lin secretly sell it.

The meat of the second-tier Monster King was undoubtedly a hot seller. As soon as it appeared, it was sold out.

Li Quan and Wang Lin didn’t dare to put out too much at once, they put out a little bit every day.

Over ten days later, the meat of a Blood Armor Lizard King was all sold, and Lu Yan pocketed more than eighty thousand silver.

Lu Yan, carrying the materials, rushed again towards Lingwang City.

...

Lingwang City, Zhao Yi’s mansion.

"That Lu Ren actually exchanged for the Heart Tempering Decision. Hmph, that girl Zhao Sirong indeed didn’t tell the truth, she really is treacherous."

Zhao Yi’s eyes were extremely cold.

"Master, what should we do now?"

The steward asked softly, trembling in fear of infuriating Zhao Yi.

"Heart Tempering Decision, I have seen it before."

Zhao Yi said.

Since he is an innate martial artist, he naturally has an interest in such special martial arts that can enhance the chance of breakthrough to the grandmaster level.

But after browsing through it, he dismissed the thought of cultivation.

For the first basic level, given his status and strength, he could gather everything needed for it.

But from the second level onwards, the items required were too rare and he couldn’t gather them.

Starting from the third level, not even with the help of the entire Zhao Clan, could he gather everything he needed.

The catch was, practicing the first few levels, wouldn’t be of much benefit, one should practice till the fifth level.

Even though he gave up the notion of cultivating it, the contents were still etched into his mind.

"This Lu Ren, actually wants to exchange for the Heart Tempering Decision. He must be an innate martial artist too, but thinking that he can increase his chances of becoming a grandmaster with the help of the Heart Tempering Decision is simply a pipe dream."

He didn’t believe that anyone in the six districts of Lingdong could cultivate the Heart Tempering Decision.

Unless they were from outside the six districts of Lingdong, those top families and feudal princes.

"But even so, I cannot allow you to cultivate the first level, to cultivate the first level, you need the Pure Blood Chamber which he would most likely exchange with his merit points."

Zhao Yi analyzed, then ordered, "Send someone under the pretext of healing to reserve the Pure Blood Chamber."

Although he was certain that Lu Yan couldn’t cultivate the latter parts of the Heart Tempering Decision, he would obstruct Lu Yan as much as he could.

"Yes."

The steward nodded.

...

It took Lu Yan ten days to return to his residence.

Then at his residence, he put all the materials into an iron box and in his bedroom, he dug a hole and buried the iron box there.

After burying it, Lu Yan immediately rushed to the Zhao Clan’s Legitimate Office.

"You’re late, the Pure Blood Chamber has been booked again, if you want to exchange for it, you have to wait until next month."

The elderly man in the office said.

"Booked again?"

Lu Yan furrowed his brows.

He had inquired, usually, very few people use the Pure Blood Chamber.

Why has it been used so frequently recently?

Could it be because of the recent demon attack on the city that caused many people to be injured?

"Senior, can I reserve it early for next month?"

Lu Yan asked.

"It’s too early to reserve now. You can only reserve it ten days in advance, so come back in twenty days."

The elderly man said.

Lu Yan could only leave helplessly and wait patiently.

He purchased a lot of Martial Food and focused on enhancing Cloud Walk.

A dozen days later, he transcended in Cloud Walk and started progressing towards the Unity of Man and Martial Arts.

Twenty days later, he calculated the time and went to the Legitimate Office again.

But he was informed that the Pure Blood Chamber for the next month had also been reserved.

"Senior, what’s the matter? I calculated the time correctly, how could it be reserved so quickly?"

Lu Yan spoke with a somewhat sullen face.

"A high-ranking member of the Zhao Clan has used their influence to book in advance, I can’t help it."

The elderly man shook his head.

"A high-ranking member of Zhao Clan? Could it be Zhao Yi? Is he deliberately trying to make life hard for me?"

The first person who came to Lu Yan’s mind was Zhao Yi.

Being reserved several times in a row, either it’s a coincidence or someone is targeting him.

If someone is targeting him and it’s a high-ranking member of the Zhao Clan, then it must be Zhao Yi.

"Zhao Yi."

A chill flashed in Lu Yan’s eyes.

If he gives him an opportunity, he will surely kill this person.

"What should I do?"

Lu Yan pondered and after thinking it over, he thought of Zhao Sirong.

He could only ask Zhao Sirong for help.

After finding Zhao Sirong and telling her about it.

"I’ll have my father use our clan’s influence to reserve the Pure Blood Chamber for you. Don’t worry, the Pure Blood Chamber can’t be occupied by a particular faction in the Zhao Clan for an extended period, to ensure fairness, they have to take turns."

Zhao Sirong agreed without hesitation.

Lu Yan was moved and had the impulse to pull Zhao Sirong into his arms.

What a good girl.
