Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Seeing the Spirit Herbs Encyclopedia, a trace of astonishment appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes because he knew it was the legendary book that contained all the knowledge about the spirit herbs below the saint level.

With a thought, Qingfeng Li’s soul power released a swirl of black energy. It entered the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia and made it its possession.

The Spirit Herb Encyclopedia tried to resist, but the Black-and-White Millstone in the depth of Qingfeng Li’s mind emitted a beam of chaotic light.

The chaotic light was a mix of white and black mists which formed a spirited pattern of the Taichi Eight Trigrams, suppressing the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia.

Obediently, the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia entered Qingfeng Li’s mind, transferring him a lot of new knowledge about spirit herbs.

However, due to his current weak strength, he could only open the first page of the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia, on which were written the knowledge about the spirit herbs classified from the first to the fourth tiers.

Qingfeng Li was very excited because the Golden Flames and the Saint Alchemy Arts he had learned were only related to the methods of making elixirs instead of knowledge about spirit herbs.

The Spirit Herb Manual contained detailed descriptions of spirit herbs including their categories, colors, sizes, looks, and functions. It was basically a guide to all the spirit herbs.

This book would benefit Qingfeng Li greatly when he planted, collected, and acquired spirit herbs in the future.

With a thought, Qingfeng Li made his soul power leave the inner space of the weed.

“Qingfeng Li, what happened to you? Why did you stand there like a statue?” Black Puppy asked Qingfeng Li.

Black Puppy had been frightened by Qingfeng Li’s actions a moment ago. He just stood there like a statue and didn’t respond even when Black Puppy scratched him with its paw.

Seeing Qingfeng Li return to his normal state, Black Puppy was relieved.

Black Puppy flew up to the high-tier planet Mars with Qingfeng Li and had no other friend but Qingfeng Li on the Crimson Fire Continent. Black Puppy would be screwed if something were to happen to Qingfeng Li.

Seeing the anxiety and concern in Black Puppy’s eyes, Qingfeng Li was moved.

Although Black Puppy was sometimes very annoying and always made Qingfeng Li its shield, it was quite useful in times of need.

With a slight smile, Qingfeng Li said, “I’m fine. And I know how to eliminate the weed.”

Black Puppy was surprised, “Qingfeng Li, just a moment ago, even Ming Mu, a high-level earthly spirit realm master, couldn’t eliminate the weed since it had cultivated itself into a spirit. How can you remove it?”

With a slight smile, Qingfeng Li said confidently, “Don’t worry. As I said, I will eliminate it. But I won’t do it now. I will wait until Ming Mu and Fatty to come tomorrow morning and give them a surprise.”

Then he ignored Black Puppy and sat on the ground cross-legged. He began to carefully read the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia in his mind.

The manual had detailed descriptions of all kinds of spirit herbs, including their effects and herbal properties.

Qingfeng Li paid special attention to the properties of Fiery Leaves, Blue Crystal Fruit, and Dark Purple Flower. In addition, he carefully studied the three herbs’ weeds, pests, water cycles and effects.

It was because he was responsible for these three spirit herbs in the Spirit Herbs Garden and only with thorough knowledge about them could he grow them strong and healthy.

When his herbs flourished, Qingfeng Li would be rewarded by the elder of the Spirit Herbs Garden with spirit herbs with which Qingfneg Li would make his own elixirs and increase his strength.

Qingfeng Li spent the whole night reading, studying, and understanding the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia. He had excellent memory and understanding.

At dawn, Qingfeng Li had memorized all the knowledge on the first page of the Spirit Herb Encyclopedia including the properties and looks of the first to fourth level spirit herbs.

It was early morning and the sun had not risen yet. Swirls of cooking smoke floated out of the distant houses where the early rising disciples were cooking breakfast. There were yells in the distance where the diligent disciples were practicing techniques.

“Qingfeng Li, didn’t I tell you to get rid of the weed by this morning? Why is it still here?” Suddenly, a cold voice came from the distance.

Qingfeng Li turned and found the speaker was Mu Ming. The Fatty was with him and both of them looked at Qingfeng Li mockingly.

They had gotten up early to make trouble for Qingfeng Li. They would drive Qingfeng Li out if he couldn’t eliminate the weed.

With a slight smile, Qingfeng Li said, “Manager Ming Mu, if I can get rid of the weed, don’t you think you should reward me with something?”

“Hahahaha.” Hearing Qingfeng Li’s words, Ming Mu laughed with contempt as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

“Qingfeng Li, if you could indeed get rid of the weed, I would reward you with a leaf. But it’s a pity that you can’t remove it.” Ming Mu sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

The fatty said from the side, “Manager Ming Mu, all the spirit herbs belong to Mu Family and you can’t give anything to Qingfeng Li.”

Ming Mu gave the fatty a hard look. “I am the supervisor here and I am in charge. Besides, do you think Qingfeng Li can remove the weed? It is absolutely impossible.”

Qingfeng Li smiled slightly and said confidently, “Ming Mu, I hope you will keep your promise.”

“What are you doing here so early in the morning?” Suddenly a clear and soft voice sounded.

Qingfeng Li turned and saw the Qingqing Mu, wearing a purple dress, was walking toward them.

Today, the second mistress was very beautiful with light make-up. With light eyeshadow and lip gloss, she looked mature and charming. Her beautiful dress was purple mingled with a pale blue and it accentuated her gorgeous figure. She looked very stunning in the morning light.

Qingqing Mu had come here to visit Qingfeng Li. After placing him in the spirit herbs garden, she wanted to have a look at his working conditions and see if he was being bullied by Ming Mu.

Driven by her concern for Qingfeng Li, she had gotten up early to visit him.
