Chapter 2427: Chapter 2428: Grateful and Repaying Kindness
Without delay, the brother and sister quickly tidied up and set off immediately for the Pharmacists’ Alliance.
The journey took more than a day, and while they were hurrying along one day, a fleet suddenly blocked their path ahead.
Although there were countless routes through the void, Lü Yangyan and his sister chose the shortest direct path to the Pharmacists’ Alliance, but they didn’t expect to encounter a fleet blocking their way.
With no other option, the two had to stop and prepare all kinds of defensive measures.
Though the possibility was slim, who knew if the other party might be the Starry Pirates roaming the void.
If that were the case, it would be troublesome since they were carrying a considerable number of top-notch Treasure Beads.
Just as Lü Yangyan and his sister were on high alert, glaring warily at the fleet,
They saw the hatch of the lead ship slowly open, and a man walked out quickly, excitedly shouting to Lü Yangyan, "Brother Lü! You’ve finally come, I’ve been waiting here for quite some time!"
Seeing this person, Lü Yangyan couldn’t help but be taken aback.
Because the speaker was none other than Zhu Zhesheng, who had also been saved by Xue An at The Drunken Life Pavilion before.
Zhu Zhesheng excitedly approached and grabbed Lü Yangyan’s hand.
"I’ve been waiting here for ten days, and today I finally managed to meet you both!"
"Why are you...?" Lü Yangyan looked at the fleet behind and was quite puzzled.
Zhu Zhesheng smiled broadly, "I specifically arranged this. If it were just me waiting here, the target would be too small, and you might miss it, which would have been a problem!"
Lü Yangyan was still confused, "Brother Zhu, what’s going on? Why am I so bewildered?"
Zhu Zhesheng sighed lightly, "To be honest, I already know about the benefactor’s matter!"
It turned out that, just half a month ago, Zhu Zhesheng, as usual, sold the Spirit Stones from the Zhu Family’s mining area to passing merchant caravans. Then he heard shocking news from them.
Xue An encountered trouble!
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhesheng was as if struck by lightning.
The favors he received from Xue An were no less, if not more, than those received by Lü Yangyan and his sister.
After all, without Xue An, he would have long died at The Drunken Life Pavilion due to the Zhai Family’s setup and slander and wouldn’t have been able to reclaim his family’s business.
So, upon receiving this news, Zhu Zhesheng was extremely anxious and wished he could sprout wings and immediately rush to the Pharmacists’ Alliance to see what was happening.
But he also knew he couldn’t act rashly, because the Zhu Family’s mining area was very important. If he didn’t maintain order there, it could easily lead to trouble.
When Xue An left, he specifically instructed him to manage the mining area well, as it would be of great use later!
Moreover, Zhu Zhesheng was well aware of his own limits; with his minimal cultivation level, going to the Pharmacists’ Alliance would be of no help.
Even though he was anxious, he could only restrain himself and ponder a solution.
Then he thought of Lü Yangyan and his sister.
He knew that with Xue An’s help, Lü Yangyan had now become the City Lord of Bead City.
This person must have heard the news and would likely head to the Pharmacists’ Alliance.
So he quickly found a star map, located the shortest path between Bead City and the Pharmacists’ Alliance, and personally drove the fleet to wait here.
As expected, he finally met Lü Yangyan and his sister today.
After listening to Zhu Zhesheng’s account, Lü Yangyan was full of admiration.
After all, he could have pretended not to know about this matter, and no one would have blamed him, but he waited here tirelessly, proving himself to be a grateful person.
"Indeed, our benefactor didn’t misjudge you, Brother Zhu. But why are you waiting here?" Lü Yangyan asked.
Zhu Zhesheng’s expression became serious, "The benefactor is in great peril, and I wish I could take his place, but my cultivation level is too shallow, and I am powerless. However, this might help the benefactor, and I hope you, Brother Lü, can bring it along!"
Saying this, Zhu Zhesheng carefully took out a Jade Pendant from his arms.
"This Jade Pendant is used specifically to store treasures, and it’s now filled with high-quality Spirit Stones accumulated from the Zhu Family’s mining area over these days. It should be of help to the benefactor!"
Indeed.
When Lü Yangyan received the Jade Pendant and his Divine Sense entered, he was stunned by what he saw inside.
The space, which was hundreds of square meters, was already filled with brightly glowing Spirit Stones.
These Spirit Stones alone would constitute a tremendous fortune.
Lü Yangyan’s expression also became very solemn as he withdrew his Divine Sense from the Jade Pendant and nodded, "Your sincerity is moving, Brother Zhu. Rest assured, I will personally deliver this to the benefactor!"
Zhu Zhesheng shook his head, "No, the benefactor is now in secluded meditation due to severe injuries. I hope you can use these Spirit Stones to purchase Spiritual Medicine that can help the benefactor recover at the Pharmacists’ Alliance, which is the right course of action!"
"Alright! I’ll do my best!"
"No time to waste, I won’t hold you two up. May you have a smooth journey to the Pharmacists’ Alliance."
"Alright, goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
They parted ways swiftly; Zhu Zhesheng returned to the mining area with his fleet, and Lü Yangyan and his sister continued their journey.
Finally, after several more days of arduous travel, the siblings arrived at the Pharmacists’ Alliance.
At this moment, the Pharmacists’ Alliance was bustling with activity.
Due to the convention, guests from all directions had packed this vast Starry Domain to the brim.
Various stalls had even extended into the void.
Such liveliness left Lü Xiaoya wide-eyed.
Having been frail and sickly since childhood, she had always followed her brother, living a life of upheaval. It wasn’t until they settled in Bead City that life became stable. She had never witnessed such excitement.
At this scene, Lü Yangyan sighed lightly.
He understood why his sister was so curious.
This also filled his heart with a sense of guilt.
So he whispered, "Xiao Ya, we should first visit the benefactor, and once everything is sorted out, I’ll take you for a walk around this lively place!"
Lü Xiaoya retracted her gaze and smiled apologetically, "Brother, I’m just curious to look around. Our primary concern should be the benefactor’s injuries. Whether or not it’s lively, doesn’t really matter!"
Although she said so, the hope in her eyes still betrayed her.
Lü Yangyan said nothing more and directly led her toward the Si Family planet.
This time they moved quickly, and within half a day, they reached the region where the Si Family planet was located.
