Chapter 118 Catalogue of Rare Medicines and Herbs
After a while.
Yue Guan finally remembered that His Highness the Holy Son was still in front of her.
He quickly composed himself, focusing his gaze on Ye Qifeng, who was only shoulder-high to him, and asked in a seductive voice:
"Your Highness, have you come here to see me?"
Ye Qifeng nodded slightly and affirmed:
"Yes, I came here specifically to see Elder Ju."
"Your Highness, did you come to see me specifically because the Merchant Alliance has something you need me to handle?"
Yue Guan asked in astonishment.
"no."
Ye Qifeng shook his head at Yue Guan.
He then slowly explained the purpose of his visit:
"I've recently been thinking about learning more about flowers and plants. I've heard that Elder Ju is an expert in this field and has the most complete catalog of flowers and plants in the entire Douluo Continent. So, I'd like to borrow it from Elder Ju."
Ye Qifeng had seen Yue Guan's resume and knew some secrets.
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, a man who turns flowers into a powerful offensive weapon, is not of commoner origin, but comes from the prestigious Yue family of medicinal herbs and plants.
The Yue family's inherited martial soul is the Qirong Chrysanthemum, which is a secondary martial soul of the immortal-grade martial soul, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.
Yue Guan's martial spirit was evolved from the Qi Rong Ju.
The Qirongju martial spirit has an exceptionally high affinity with plants. Due to the characteristics of the martial spirit, the Yue family is skilled at cultivating medicinal herbs and flowers, and makes a living by selling them.
After the Yue family suffered a tragedy and perished, only Yue Guan and his older sister Yue Fei remained.
There are reasons why Yue Guan turned into a effeminate, chrysanthemum-like man.
When Yue Guan was a child, he was raised by his older sister, who was like a father and mother to him. She was his everything.
Later, her older sister died unexpectedly, which devastated Yue Guan. She felt as if the sky had fallen, leaving her with a deep obsession and inner conflict, which led her to imitate her sister's behavior in every way.
In addition, the influence of the Immortal Martial Soul, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, made his appearance increasingly feminine and alluring.
Although Yue Guan imitates her sister in every way, she doesn't seem to have grasped the essence of her sister's art.
His personality is also very unconventional.
Over the years, this has shaped his current style.
She's a chatterbox, loves to get to the bottom of things, has a wicked sense of humor, likes to be sarcastic and eccentric, and is a sassy, annoying person.
That is to say, even the usually quiet Ghost Douluo Gui Mei could tolerate his bad temper.
The Yue family possesses a family heirloom manual.
A Catalogue of Rare and Precious Herbs and Medicinal Plants!
It contains illustrations of almost all the rare medicinal herbs and plants in the Douluo Continent, along with detailed explanations, as well as additional information on cultivation, harvesting, and medicine making.
This catalog of flowers and plants was originally in the hands of Yue Guan's older sister, Yue Fei. After Yue Fei's unexpected death, it was passed down to Yue Guan.
Yue Guan inherited the "Illustrated Catalogue of Rare Medicines and Herbs," and also carried on her sister's legacy.
He was determined to record all the rare and precious medicinal herbs and plants in the world.
Therefore, he was obsessed with flowers and plants throughout his life and had an excellent understanding of rare medicinal herbs and plants.
Therefore, he earned the title of "flower lover".
Through generations of collection, recording, and refinement by the Yue family, the catalog of flowers and plants has become increasingly comprehensive.
It already includes almost all the rare medicinal herbs and flowers in the world.
Of course, nearly half of this is thanks to Yue Guan, and it continues to increase.
Why is Yue Guan so enamored with the power and status of the Spirit Hall and so loyal to it?
This is the reason.
With the power and status of the Spirit Hall, Yue Guan could leverage its strength and information channels throughout the Douluo Continent, greatly facilitating his collection of information on rare medicines and herbs.
Otherwise, if he were to search alone, given the vastness of the Douluo Continent, even if he were a Title Douluo, he might not be able to collect many rare medicines and herbs even if he ran himself ragged for his entire life.
Forget about having his courtyard full of rare flowers and plants.
"this."
Upon hearing that Ye Qifeng actually wanted to borrow her family's inherited treasure book, Yue Guan paused for a moment, her expression changing slightly.
The "Illustrated Catalogue of Rare Medicines and Herbs" was Yue Guan's most treasured possession, valued more than his own life.
Over the years, apart from Yue Guan herself, she has never let anyone else read it.
Even his decades-long partner, Ghost, had never let him touch him.
Now that Qi Feng has suddenly asked to borrow the book, Yue Guan is in a bit of a predicament.
I can't quite understand why His Highness has suddenly become interested in flowers and plants.
It should be noted that in the eyes of the vast majority of Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent, medicinal herbs and flowers belong to unorthodox and unorthodox categories.
The mainstream of Soul Masters has always been cultivation and combat; very few Soul Masters are interested in medicines and herbs.
The existence of healing-type and support-type Soul Masters also means that Soul Masters are not keen on spending time researching medicines and herbs.
Among the tens of thousands of Soul Masters in the Spirit Hall, you can't find many who enjoy studying flowers and plants.
He is the only one as obsessed as he is.
Regarding Ye Qifeng's request to borrow books.
Yue Guan neither agreed immediately nor refused right away; instead, she was somewhat curious.
Once curiosity was piqued, Yue Guan, unable to keep anything to herself, immediately blurted out:
"Your Highness, why have you suddenly become interested in knowledge about flowers and plants?"
Ye Qifeng noticed the troubled look on Yue Guan's face, which was actually within Ye Qifeng's expectations and made sense.
After all, the catalog of flowers and plants was something Yue Guan cherished dearly, and it was impossible for Yue Guan to have to lend it to him just because he asked.
It's already quite good that they didn't refuse immediately.
This suggests that it is still possible to borrow the flower and plant catalog in Yue Guan's possession.
Ye Qifeng's jet-black eyes brightened slightly as he earnestly explained:
"That's right. I learned from the records in the Spirit Hall's archives that there are some rare and precious materials in the Douluo Continent. Among them, some unique flowers and plants have the ability to enhance the combat power of Soul Masters, allow Martial Souls to evolve, and transform Soul Masters."
"I am somewhat interested in this. The Spirit Hall's archives have limited information on flowers and plants, but I heard that Elder Ju possesses the most complete catalog of flowers and plants in the world, so I came to find you, Elder Ju."
"So that's how it is." Yue Guan understood immediately after hearing this.
His Highness the Holy Son is actually interested in celestial treasures? Could it be that His Highness is also a fellow practitioner?
He instantly became interested.
Yue Guan's eyes lit up, and without caring whether Ye Qifeng was listening or not, she began to ramble on and on:
"Those unusual flowers and plants that His Highness the Holy Son mentioned can actually be called celestial plants."
"A celestial treasure, it has extremely demanding requirements for its growth environment. It only exists in some treasure lands or forbidden areas where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely rich. It is something that can be encountered by chance and is not sought after. It may not appear even once every ten thousand years."
"Medicinal herbs and plants are also graded."
"Next to the celestial grade is the supreme grade, which requires flowers and plants that are at least a thousand years old. They are extremely rare, appearing only once every thousand years."
"The next level up is the high-grade, which are all around a hundred years old and are rare."
"Finally, there are common flowers and plants, those that are ten years old or less. They are quite common, so let's not mention them."
"The flowers and plants I plant in my courtyard are almost all of high quality, with only a few being of the highest quality."
"Immortal-grade items almost exclusively exist in legends."
"I have been searching for decades, but I have never obtained even one, or even seen one."
"If His Highness wishes to obtain a Celestial Item, I'm afraid the chances are extremely slim."
"If I could obtain a divine plant, I'd be willing to die for it! Hmm~~~"
As she spoke, Yue Guan suddenly cupped her face in her hands, twisting and turning her body, and made a fascinated expression, like a hopeless infatuated girl.
