His Highness the Crown Prince Always Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 374: Huge Investor

After Yu Qing Qian advanced to Spirit King, due to the relationship between her wood-class variant ability and the Spirit King-level Nourishing Soil she previously collected, the Demon Emperor Herb and the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus were both promoted to Spirit King together.

But the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus fell into a deep sleep after she added a few more pieces of Nourishing Soil.

Yu Qing Qian stepped into the primeval forest and a cold air spread across the surface. The temperature suddenly dropped a lot compared to the outside.

The surrounding plants also seemed to be relatively cold-resistant. After Yu Qing Qian’s wood-class variant ability advanced to level 5, her affinity with plants had also improved a lot.

As soon as she stepped into the forest, the surrounding trees and plants exuded a friendly aura towards her, and the surrounding atmosphere made Yu Qing Qian feel very comfortable.

“Xiao Qing Qing, you’re really the darling of Heaven!” Gu Yan’s heart energy was constantly released, and he also found that the auras released by the surrounding plants were very friendly, “Your special talent as an Innate Spiritual Plant Master is so strong. As long as you’re in a place with plants, you’re like fish in water.”

“Mm, as long as I’m in a place with plants, I’ll also feel very comfortable.” In addition to absorbing poison, to advance the wood-class variant ability, Yu Qing Qian also required constant cultivation among plants to comprehend nature.

After walking for about an hour, countless brown plants suddenly sprouted from the left and right. Each plant seemed to have countless small mouths, and if one was accidentally bitten, their blood essence would be sucked away and lost.

Yu Qing Qian discovered these demonic plants right away, but because their level wasn’t high, she had no intention of forming a contract with them.

She didn’t even summon the Demon Emperor Herb but directly used the wood-class variant ability to act on the demonic plants. The demonic plants’ movements instantly slowed down, then it let out a shrill scream and ran away.

Yu Qing Qian’s wood-class variant ability could control plants. After advancing to level 5, she could also control demonic plants at the same level as her. Just now, she simply scared that demonic plant a bit.

“Xiao Qing Qing, you’re so mischievous.” Gu Yan took a sip of wine and said with a squinted smile: “No longer killing now, are you going to become a vegetarian?”

He discovered that along the way, they met many demonic plants, but Yu Qing Qian let them all go.

“My future fighting partners would be demonic plants, so I naturally don’t want to kill too much.” Yu Qing Qian shrugged and said with a smile: “And if I clean up all the demonic plants I encounter along the way, then how will it serve as training for the pupils who enter this secret ground in the future?”

“…” Gu Yan rolled his eyes, “So they’d have to thank you for it, is that it.”

Those pupils who entered the secret ground practically all came looking to contract spiritual plants. They’d probably be happier if they weren’t attacked by demonic plants. His disciple was so bad—but he liked it.

“Hey, there’s a spiritual plant there.” Yu Qing Qian saw a pretty blue flower blooming in the spot covered by the demonic plants that were scared away and walked over.

Gu Yan glanced at it casually, “The species isn’t bad, it’s an advanced-level ice-elemental battle-class spiritual plant. Its bloodline is almost close to king level.”

With a smile, Yu Qing Qian walked over and dug up its roots, then used a ball of her wood-class variant ability to nourish its roots. She then took out a box specially designed to hold spiritual plants and put it in.

“Why did you take it if you’re not contracting it?” Gu Yan asked in surprise.

Yu Qing Qian sighed, her tone filled with helplessness: “I’m a pauper. To raise so many demonic plants in the future will require all kinds of magical beast blood essence and spiritual items of heaven and earth. To raise the small pagoda I need unlimited spiritual jade. To raise the Demon Emperor Herb and the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus I’d also need advanced-level Nourishing Soil. I won’t contract the spiritual plants I find, but I can bring it out to sell!”

One had to say that not mentioning it was one thing, but after mentioning it, Yu Qing Qian suddenly discovered that she had become a huge investor—yet she really did seem to be short of money…

“…” The corner of Gu Yan’s lips twitched. If those pupils who had struggled to find a spiritual plant to form a contract with were informed of Yu Qing Qian’s plan, he wondered if they’d have the urge to beat her to death.
