Chapter 2820 - 2822: Buliang Well

After eating, Xiao Chen went to watch a movie with Jiang Meng.

Just out of the cinema.

Eve’s call came through.

"My sister, something happened to her!"

The dignified Assassin Queen was actually crying.

It shows the situation is not simple.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be there right away, is it still the same hotel?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"Yes, it’s still the same hotel!"

Eve replied.

Xiao Chen explained to Jiang Meng and then called a car heading to the hotel.

Eve’s sister Ina had her soul lost.

Which caused her to be in a coma.

Now, it’s just one soul that’s lost.

If all three souls and seven spirits were lost.

The person would die.

Obviously, someone cast a spell targeting Ina.

When Xiao Chen arrived at the hospital.

He saw Ina trembling all over.

Like an epileptic seizure.

Foaming at the mouth.

"Eve, the materials you need will take some time to get.

But I didn’t expect your sister’s condition to worsen so much.

To help her.

You need to sacrifice something."

Xiao Chen looked at Eve and said.

"Just tell me, I’ll do anything as long as I can save her.

She’s my only relative in this world."

Eve nodded.

"I need to temporarily place one soul and three spirits of yours into her body.

This may make you feel uncomfortable.

And you might become mentally sluggish.

But there won’t be a big issue.

She will also temporarily get better.

Until I find the herbs.

Are you willing?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"I’m willing!"

Eve agreed without any hesitation.

"Such a good sister!

Alright, lie down!"

Xiao Chen smiled.

He let Eve lie down beside Ina and then began to perform acupuncture on the two according to the methods recorded in the Elixir Scroll.

Then True Qi was guided.

After less than half an hour.

Xiao Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It’s done!"

"It feels like apart from a little tired, there’s nothing else?"

Eve wondered.

"It’s just temporary.

If you’re missing one soul and one spirit for a long time, various problems will occur.

But don’t worry, in a few days I’ll get the materials for you!"

Xiao Chen calculated the time, it was almost the market day in Buliang City.

At that time, he’ll buy back both Cold Iron and the Resurrection Flower.

Anyway, Eve has money.

He’s not afraid of her reneging on the payment.

Considering that Eve’s Nightmare Organization could help him a lot in the future.

The current investment brings great benefits.

"Also, give this thing to your sister to wear, this way, her remaining souls and spirits won’t be taken away!"

Xiao Chen took out a pendant: "I handcrafted this during my free time recently.

It’s good stuff.

How about one billion first?"

"Okay!"

Eve was about to transfer the money directly.

"Forget it, I was joking.

A million in Gemstone Currency will do.

I’m not trying to profiteer off you.

While the raw materials are not hard to find, crafting it is time-consuming and labor-intensive."

Xiao Chen didn’t expect Eve to be so straightforward.

If he really were short of money, he might have agreed.

But he’s not that short of money yet.

So, there’s no need to take such advantage of others.

Eve transferred a million in Gemstone Currency to Xiao Chen on the spot.

Then she bowed deeply and said, "I heard you have a three-year agreement with the Black and White Divine Palace, do you want me to help you destroy them?"

"Please don’t!

I still want to play with them for a bit."

Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "I can destroy the Black and White Divine Palace with ease now.

But since there’s a three-year agreement.

I’ll give them a three-year chance.

Alright, I’m leaving.

In a few days, I have to go to Buliang Well, are you going?"

"I have to stay and take care of my sister, so I probably can’t go."

Eve shook her head.

"Alright then, see you later.

At most seven days, I’ll help her completely solve the problem!"

Xiao Chen left.

Eve watched Xiao Chen’s departing back.

She opened her mouth.

But in the end, she couldn’t say anything.

She knew a bit about Xiao Chen’s affairs.

Becoming a live-in son-in-law.

To repay a favor.

She wondered if she still had a chance.

In her view, only someone like her was fit to be Xiao Chen’s worthy partner.

She didn’t say it.

Afraid of offending Xiao Chen in the end.

The next day, Xiao Chen changed clothes.

Planning to head to Buliang Well.

But he didn’t know the way.

So he asked Xue Mu to guide him.

Unexpectedly.

Xue Lan came to pick him up.

Xue Lan drove a Mercedes G-Class.

Xiao Chen thought about it and decided to get in.

His car wasn’t ready yet.

Having someone pick him up, why not.

With a clear conscience, there’s nothing to fear.

"Where’s your dad?"

Xiao Chen sat in the back and asked casually.

After the car started.

Xue Lan said, "My dad isn’t going this time.

He’s a bit tied up with some matters."

"I see!"

Xiao Chen nodded, not asking further questions.

Instead, he closed his eyes, "Call me when we arrive!"

Xue Lan glanced at Xiao Chen through the rearview mirror, a sweet smile spreading on her face.

Just looking at Xiao Chen made her content.

Buliang Well was not far from Central Plains City.

It was only a three-hour drive.

They arrived quickly.

It really was a valley.

More bustling than expected.

Hotels and inns built along the mountain were everywhere.

And all kinds of entertainment venues.

It could be considered as bustling as a fourth-tier city.

The most luxurious hotel here was three-star.

Xue Lan had already booked online before coming.

It was a suite.

"Where’s your room?"

Xiao Chen frowned and asked.

"What, afraid to stay with me, worried I’ll eat you up?"

Xue Lan stuck out her tongue and joked.

"Don’t joke about things like this with me.

I don’t like it!"

Xiao Chen replied coldly, "Stay in this suite, I’ll find another place to stay!"

This wasn’t a matter of like or dislike.

It’s a matter of principle.

Even if Jiang Meng didn’t blame him.

He would still feel guilty deep inside.

"Alright, alright, don’t be mad.

I was kidding with you.

This suite is specially prepared for you, I’ll stay next door."

Xue Lan hurriedly said.

"That’s more like it."

Xiao Chen looked at Xue Lan and said, "I don’t care about other things.

Jokes are just jokes.

But about this, I don’t like joking.

I love only Jiang Meng in this life.

Understand?"

Xue Lan looked a bit gloomy.

But she still smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I understand, I won’t wish for more."

"Sigh! Don’t blame me for being upset!

I’m not targeting you, just the situation."

Xiao Chen sighed.

Feeling that his earlier tone might have been a bit harsh.

After settling down, Xiao Chen took a nice bath.

Rested for a while, then had a meal with Xue Lan.

Xue Lan briefly explained the situation in Buliang City.

Buliang Well lay at the intersection of the Shendu Prefecture, Central Plains Prefecture, and actually also the Northwest Prefecture.

There were martial artists from the three prefectures here.

As well as many complex organizations.

Everything was sold here.

Some things were even very cheap.

But there were many counterfeit goods.

So when shopping here, you must be vigilant, or you’ll get swindled without realizing it.
