Everyone was shocked.
Jian Shuye was stunned for a moment and continued to ask:
"The Whirling Lotus? But the Whirling Lotus that is rumored to be capable of killing human flesh and white bones?"
Jiang Yucheng nodded.
"Exactly. If it weren't for this, the third princess wouldn't be willing to risk it."
Song Luan said excitedly:
"The third princess is really filial to Your Majesty! After taking this whirling lotus, His Majesty's health will definitely improve!"
Jiang Yucheng's brows furrowed slightly and his tone was slightly cold.
"What Master Song said is true, but it is a pity that the whirling lotus has not been successfully retrieved."
Song Luan's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver.
Many people around couldn't help but laugh secretly.
The flattery hits the horse's leg, and it's really his fault!
Song Luan felt that his face was shameless and he said calmly:
"It turns out that the whirling lotus is a rare treasure in the world. It must be very difficult to successfully retrieve it. But I thought it was too simple."
Jiang Yucheng didn't bother to argue with him so much. He nodded and said:
"You are right. The Whirlpool Lotus is indeed extremely difficult to get close to. Elder Qiuxi died just to get the Whirlpool Lotus."
As soon as these words came out, the huge Minghua Hall suddenly became quiet.
Everyone's expressions changed. They didn't expect the matter to be so difficult.
Elder Qiuxi is an elder of the royal family, so it goes without saying that he is powerful.
Even he couldn't do it, so he died
This shows the danger of the whirling lotus!
"The whirling lotus grows in the Jing Lake in the Great Wilderness. Originally, we wanted to pick it off and bring it back to His Majesty for use. But there is something weird about the Jing Lake, and even the elders of Qiuxi were not spared. So, we were worried. The safety of many soldiers and disciples from various sects was in danger, so we made a prompt decision and chose to come back."
After Jiang Yucheng's words, he not only explained the reason for Shangguan Wan's injury, but also explained the reason for everyone's sudden return.
Their rush to return this time is bound to cause great commotion throughout Xiling City.
Overtly or covertly, I don’t know how many speculations and rumors there will be.
Jiang Yucheng didn't want to be criticized for this matter.
"I see."
"No wonder Her Highness the Third Princess brought people back so quickly. It was for everyone's safety."
"What's so weird about Mirror Lake that it's so dangerous?"
After a short silence, everyone started talking.
Obviously, all the previous speculations and complaints about Shangguan Wan and the others have quietly dissipated at this time.
-Who can blame them in this situation
Jiang Yucheng looked around and waited until everyone had finished talking, then said:
"So, when we come back this time, on the one hand, we don't want to cause unnecessary casualties. On the other hand, we want to find a few strong people to take action. We will go to the Great Wilderness again and work together to retrieve the Whispering Lotus."
There was silence in the hall.
"I don't know, what do you think?"
After Jiang Yucheng finished asking, no one spoke for a while.
Everyone secretly exchanged glances with each other and thought about it.
There is no doubt that a natural treasure like the Whispering Lotus has a fatal attraction for everyone.
But at the same time, they also have to consider safety.
Even Elder Qiuxi died there, how many people can guarantee that they can return safely
The most important thing is that even if you really take the risk and successfully retrieve the Whispering Lotus, it will still be dedicated to His Majesty in the end.
What can they catch
The people present here are all big shots with high social status, and all of them are very shrewd.
They either represent the entire clan or the entire sect.
Once something happens to them, there are countless people who will be implicated.
Therefore, even if they are indeed loyal to His Majesty, they still have to think more about it when it comes to their own life and death.
No one spoke, and the air seemed to be frozen.
Jiang Yucheng's brows furrowed slightly.
He had expected that a large part of these people might not be willing to take this risk, but he did not expect that everyone would be like this.
He hesitated for a moment and said:
"I know that this trip is dangerous, and you all have concerns, but the Whirlpool Lotus is really too important to Your Majesty. In addition to the corresponding rewards, in addition to the Whirlpool Lotus, other medicinal materials found will also belong to To each their own.”
Many people's eyes lit up.
If that's the case, you can still consider it.
"The reason why Elder Qiuxi died was firstly because he was careless at the time, and secondly because he went there alone with no one to support him. All of them are the top experts in the Tianling Dynasty. If everyone joins forces, they will definitely take down the Whispering Lotus. Not a problem, right?"
Jiang Yucheng's words undoubtedly shook many people's minds.
Since the whirling lotus can appear in Mirror Lake, there may be other treasures.
As long as you are fully prepared, even if you really can't get it, you still have the ability to escape, so you won't follow in the footsteps of Elder Qiuxi.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"I am willing to go."
Hearing the sound, everyone looked over, only to find that the speaker was actually Yu Chisong!
Everyone, including Jiang Yucheng, was surprised.
Everyone here is likely to go, but Yuchisong, they think, is the least likely to go.
There are only a few people left in Chongxu Pavilion, and they all rely on him as the pavilion master for support.
Once something happens to him, won't Chongxu Pavilion be completely finished
In addition, Chu Liuyue and others died in the Great Wilderness. What did he think about going to that sad place
But facing the suspicious eyes of everyone, Yu Chisong looked calm and indifferent, not taking it seriously.
He has made up his mind!
Jian Shuye touched his chin.
"As a heavenly doctor, I naturally have to go and see what the whirling lotus baby looks like! I'll go too!"
At this time, Chu Liuyue naturally didn't know that there was a group of people in Xiling City thousands of miles away who were planning to come to the Great Wilderness Ze again.
She was trapped in this small area, and all she could do was practice.
Taizu glanced at the hourglass next to him.
Counting the time, less than ten days have passed outside.
However, more than half a year has passed here.
Chu Liuyue was here, practicing day and night, and her whole body seemed to be in trance.
At first, Taizu was worried that Chu Liuyue would not be used to staying here for a long time.
But I didn't expect that she was extremely determined.
When you say you want to practice cultivation, you should only do this one thing wholeheartedly.
If it were anyone else, I might have felt bored and depressed.
But Chu Liuyue didn't.
Even Taizu was amazed by this patience.
He couldn't help but be curious.
I wonder how strong Chu Liuyue will be when she leaves here.
Time passes slowly.
Qin Yi and others have been waiting in the Magic Mist Forest for nearly half a month.
At the beginning, they would still guess when Chu Liuyue would come out, but now they basically no longer say it.
All they can do is practice and wait silently.
However, this calm was soon broken.
