1048 Kiss Ass Yu Huang
After Yu Huang heard about this, she revealed a thoughtful expression.
Among the million Fortune Grass, only one had a very small chance of evolving into a Fortune Tree and producing a Fortune Fruit. From this, it could be seen that it was difficult to successfully raise the Fortune Grass.
However, under He Zhiqiu’s careful nurturing, the only Fortune Grass beside his house evolved into a Tree of Fortune and successfully bore the Fortune Fruit.
Clearly, He Zhiqiu didn’t achieve this by luck. There must be something special about his nurturing method that caused the Fortune Grass to evolve.
Perhaps the administrator of the Cang Lang Continent’s Space Administration took a fancy to He Zhiqiu’s ‘speciality’.
However, Yu Huang still didn’t understand what the ‘speciality’ was.
“Your beast form is the Nine Deaths Soul Restoring Grass…” Yu Huang suddenly said.
He Zhiqiu nodded and told Yu Huang, “In your world, the Cypress Grass is called the Nine Deaths Soul Restoring Grass, but on Hongyan Continent, the Cypress Grass is very ordinary. Other than its tenacious vitality, it has no other advantages.”
On the Hongyan Continent, Beast Tamers who had awakened the Cypress Grass only had the advantage of longevity.
Their combat strength and cultivation talent were far inferior to those battle-type Beast Tamers.
Yu Huang told He Zhiqiu, “On the Holy Spirit Continent, the Cypress Grass is the most suitable beast form to be a Healing-type Beast Tamer. Its tenacious vitality is most suitable for cultivating a Healing-type cultivation technique. In our world, this Nine Deaths Soul Restoring Grass is also called the Endless Life Grass, which symbolizes vitality.”
At this point, Yu Huang seemed to have realized something and suddenly stood up.
She stood up a little too quickly, attracting He Zhiqiu’s attention.
He Zhiqiu asked gloomily, “What’s wrong?” After saying that, he realized that Yu Huang was looking straight at him.
He Zhiqiu was even more puzzled.
Yu Huang said, “I’m going to do an investigation.” As for what to investigate, she didn’t say it explicitly.
He Zhiqiu froze for a moment before nodding. “Then go ahead.”
After Yu Huang left, He Zhiqiu still sat on the spot without moving. He stared at the empty space in a daze with a numb expression.
Even though he realized that he had been deceived by Mr. Philand, what could He Zhiqiu do?
He was alone and was already in his twilight years. What could he use to demand an explanation from Philand?
At the thought that he could only secretly suffer this loss, He Zhiqiu felt indignant, but there was nothing he could do.

The slope of the Spiritual Field Base was relatively steep. The entire base was developed into terraces that were like divine stairs. The small river ditches below the mountain divided the terraces into countless columns. The Spiritual Field Base was divided into 26 camps by the small river ditches from the east to the south.
Yu Huang noticed that the Spiritual Field Base where the ascendants were located happened to be in the middle of the entire base.
The Spiritual Field Bases on both sides were rented by the various factions of the Cang Lang Continent. The herbalists nurtured by these factions were squatting in the Spiritual Field with straw hats and work clothes while taking care of the spiritual herbs.
Yu Huang strolled to the westernmost part of the Spiritual Field Base alone.
This place was the furthest from the spiritual field where He Zhiqiu was. There were more than ten small river ditches and they were five to six kilometers apart.
Yu Huang noticed that the spiritual herbs in the west were the rarest, and the spiritual herbs were not as vibrant as the ones in the middle. She observed for a moment before suddenly bending down to grab a piece of spiritual soil from the spiritual field. She deliberately wiped the spiritual soil on her face and made herself dirty. Only then did she walk to the ridge above a spiritual field and squat down. She shouted at the woman who was bending down while working in the spiritual field, “Madam.”
The woman was wearing a sunblock hat and holding a small hoe in her hand. She was very focused as she worked.
She didn’t hear Yu Huang’s first call.
Yu Huang cleared her throat and shouted again, “Madam, the weather is so hot. Drink some spring water and rest for a while.” Yu Huang held a clean kettle in her hand. The kettle was filled with mountain spring water that she had fetched from the river ditch beside her.
These mountain spring water were all clean and used to irrigate spiritual herbs, so it was beneficial for people too.
The woman finally noticed Yu Huang. She put down the small hoe in her hand and raised her head to look at Yu Huang.
Yu Huang’s face was covered in spiritual soil that covered her appearance.
However, the woman knew that just from Yu Huang’s facial features, it could be seen that she was a beauty.
However, no matter how beautiful a person was, they would lose their charm when they were stained with mud.
Seeing the completely unfamiliar face, the woman revealed a wary and suspicious gaze. “You are?”
Yu Huang smiled warmly and said, “I’m an ascendant who just arrived. I was sent here to plant spiritual herbs. Among the spiritual herbs planting bases in the west, only your spiritual field is the most vibrant. Please tell me your planting techniques.”
When the woman heard Yu Huang’s words, her vigilance faded a little, and a rather friendly smile appeared on her face.
“I won’t drink the water.” She didn’t know Yu Huang, so she naturally wouldn’t be stupid enough to drink Yu Huang’s water. “What do you want to ask? Just ask.”
Yu Huang opened the kettle and took a sip of the sweet mountain spring water. Then, she glanced at the surrounding spiritual fields before saying to the woman, “I walked around the spiritual field base just now and realized that the further west we went, the worse the growth of the spiritual herbs. Only your spiritual field grew the most vibrantly. This must be because you’re good at planting spiritual herbs and has your own unique technique.”
After saying that, Yu Huang revealed an embarrassed expression. She lowered her head and said shyly, “We came from a small world, so it wasn’t easy for us to ascend. I also want to complete the assessment mission as soon as possible, so I came to ask you for advice. I hope you can give me some pointers.”
What kind of flattery did farmers like to hear the most?
They liked to hear others praising their field for having another good harvest this year.
Yu Huang’s words both flattered the woman and affirmed her ability.
The woman laughed and said, “There’s no special technique. It’s about fertilizing on time, weeding more, and catching insects every day. And…” The woman chuckled as she turned to look at the center of the base. Then, she retracted her gaze and said in an unfathomable tone, “Remember to come early every morning. That’s when the vitality is the strongest.”
Yu Huang narrowed her eyes when she heard this.
Come early…
Yu Huang pretended not to understand and asked her humbly, “Why? I feel that the spiritual energy in this spiritual herb base has always been very rich.”
The woman shook her head with a smile. She was probably laughing at Yu Huang for being inexperienced.
She said, “You don’t understand. Spiritual power and vitality are two completely different things. Spiritual herbs absorb vitality to grow and release spiritual power during their growth. The spiritual power here is rich because the spiritual herbs here grow well and release sufficient spiritual power. Whether the spiritual herbs can grow vibrantly depends on the strength of their vitality.”
After the woman finished speaking, she finally raised her head and looked at Yu Huang sternly as she said, “Listen to me. Morning is the time when the vitality in this spiritual field base is the strongest. You have to seize this opportunity.”
