Chapter 2891 — Tianchan's Decision

"Uh... you can't be serious? That rare? Then wouldn't it be very hard for me to obtain?" Wei Zhao could not help but smile wryly. Why did every quest for a spirit medicine follow such similar plots? It had been the same when he went to the Ice Palace before...
"It is indeed very hard to obtain. However, compared with the life of Earth Overlord, the young sect master of the Loess Plateau Sect, that small bottle of earth-attribute essence liquid is nothing but a drop in the ocean. Even ten or eight bottles—if you could save the young sect master of the Loess Plateau Sect, they would give them to you without the slightest hesitation!" Tianchan said. Previously she had not known how to tell Wei Zhao to go and treat Earth Overlord, but now all that needed no saying—it had become entirely a matter of course!
"Oh?" Only then did Wei Zhao recall that Earth Overlord, the young sect master of that Loess Plateau Sect, had been beaten by Zhang Naipao at the restaurant entrance. "Earth Overlord isn't dead yet?"
"They're keeping him alive with Great Restoration Pills!" Tianchan said. "He won't die for the time being, but he can't live either..."
Wei Zhao drew a deep breath and carefully weighed the pros and cons of this matter, yet he still said firmly, "All right, I'll treat him! I'll go find the people of the Loess Plateau Sect to discuss this in a little while!"
True, healing Earth Overlord's injuries would expose Wei Zhao's healing ability—but compared with Little Nine's life, that hardly mattered. Wei Zhao already had enough enemies as it was, and he stood in a position strong enough that even if people learned of this ability, it would merely add one more advantage for others to covet.
The present Wei Zhao was like a hedgehog, seeking a balance among all levels and factions: I will not go out of my way to prick you, but if you come for me, I will prick you. And so, for the time being, all was peaceful.
"That won't be necessary. There's a saying—'a deal that must be chased is no deal.' If you go to him of your own accord with a favor to ask, they will not remember your kindness. But if you make them come to you, that is a different matter," Tianchan said.
"But how do I let him know that I can heal Earth Overlord?" Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback.
"Leave that to me. You just wait in your room, and when the time comes, be appropriately reserved about it. What you gain will be more than just the earth-attribute essence liquid," Tianchan said.
"This... then thank you!" Wei Zhao was somewhat astonished. He had not expected Tianchan to possess such great influence as to arrange for the people of the Loess Plateau Sect to come looking for him—but when he thought of Tianchan's background with the Five Luminaries Sect, it was hardly surprising.
"Saying thank you to me... I'll kick you!" With that, Tianchan hung up. Her face was flushed and her heart racing—especially when she said that last sentence, Tianchan found that she was terribly nervous...
"..." Wei Zhao was somewhat speechless. Thanking her got him kicked?
After hanging up, he turned his head and saw Yang Qiqi staring fixedly at him. Wei Zhao felt rather awkward—earlier he had not asked about Little Nine's matter, and had instead been exchanging pleasantries with Tianchan. He wondered whether Yang Qiqi was displeased.
"This... Little Qi..." Wei Zhao did not know what to say.
"Brother A-Yi, Little Nine can be saved now, right? That Sister Tianchan you know is so amazing—she even knows people from the Loess Plateau Sect?" Yang Qiqi looked at Wei Zhao excitedly!
Wei Zhao was taken aback. Only then did he realize that Yang Qiqi had probably heard his entire conversation with Tianchan. In this room there were only the two of them, and it was very quiet—it was hardly surprising that she could hear Tianchan's words...
