Chapter 360: Didn’t Have Any Sky Demon Herb
“What herb do you want? Herb King Valley isn’t stingy. If they have it, they will naturally give it to you,” Moka said. However, Audrey’s words surprised him, and his expression changed instantly.
“Sky Demon Herb.”
Moka looked at Audrey with a serious expression. A hint of unease flashed in his eyes, and his tone became much colder. “There’s no such herb in the valley. You guys should leave quickly.”
“How can there be no such herb? We only came here after asking around,” Klein said discontentedly.
Moka immediately shot him a cold look. “If I said there isn’t, then there isn’t.”
“If you don’t want to give it to us, then just say you don’t want to give it to us. Why do you have to lie to us and say you don’t have it?” Klein snorted coldly and grumbled in a low voice.
By the side, Audrey did not expect the people of the Herb King Valley to have such a huge change in attitude when they heard about the Sky Demon Herb. No matter how rare the Sky Demon Herb was, they could have explained it clearly and rejected it. Why did they have to be so cold and heartless?
Audrey could not help but feel puzzled.
She thought for a moment and knew that it was not appropriate to fall out with the people of the Herb King Valley at this moment. She smiled and said, “Then we might have gotten the wrong information. If not, then forget it.”
Upon hearing this, Moka seemed to relax a lot. The eyes he looked at Audrey and the others became much gentler, but the hint of caution and vigilance in his eyes was still obvious.
Audrey did not know why Moka would suddenly be so vigilant and guarded against them after hearing about the Sky Demon Herb. Could there be something hidden behind the Sky Demon Herb?
Then, it was even more impossible for him to give up so easily.
“In that case, the few of you can leave. I’ll send someone to send you out.” Moka said this, feeling anxious.
“There’s no rush. I’ve always heard that there are many medicinal herbs in the Herb King Valley and many interesting things. Even if we do not have the Sky Demon Herb, it wouldn’t be a waste to stay for two days to visit. I wonder if we can stay for a few more days to visit and get to know the local customs of the Herb King Valley.”
A faint smile hung on Audrey’s lips as she said this. She seemed kind, but under her azure blue eyes, there was a coldness.
Moka was conflicted in his heart. He was afraid that Audrey and the others would bring danger if they stayed here, but he was also afraid that they would fly into a rage if they rejected them. At the same time, they would bring danger to the Herb King Valley.
Although he did not fight with Audrey and the others, Moka could feel their powerful strength.
“You are all experts with extraordinary strength. Our Herb King Valley doesn’t want to make enemies, nor do we want to have a fight that would disrupt the harmony of the Herb King Valley. As long as you don’t have any ill intentions, it’s fine for you to stay for a few days. However, if you cause chaos to the Herb King Valley, I will definitely not let you off.” Moka’s tone was sharp as he said these words.
Following that, he had someone arrange a new room for Audrey and the others in the inner valley. Only then did this matter come to an end.
After returning to the room, Klein and the others could not wait to ask Audrey about her next plans.
“Do you believe that there really isn’t any Sky Demon Herb here?” Audrey looked at her three teammates with a faint smile as she asked with a frown.
When the Sky Demon Herb was mentioned, Klein felt angry and immediately retorted, “How can there be no Sky Demon Herb? It must be because they don’t want to give it to us. After all, Sky Demon Herb is rare, that’s why they said they didn’t come to fool us.”
“According to the book, the Sky Demon Herb is in Herb King Valley. It should be here,” Adrian said as well, but he was much more composed than Klein.
Hearing this, Audrey smiled.
“You’re right. The Sky Demon Herb must be here. However, I don’t know why they would have such a big reaction when they mentioned the Sky Demon Herb. I need to figure this out,” Audrey said thoughtfully, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.
Only then did her teammates understand the reason why Audrey stayed.
After a round of conversation, they gradually became calmer. If they wanted to investigate the truth, they needed to stay calm in the Herb King Valley and take their time.
In the afternoon, Audrey really went to the market in the valley as she had told Moka. She bought some medicinal herbs. Other than that, there were also many injuries medicine sold in the market in the valley. They were all refined by the residents of the valley, and the effects were quite good, Audrey also bought some back in case she needed them.
Two to three days passed in the blink of an eye. Other than collecting a lot of herbs in the valley, Audrey did not find anything about the Sky Demon Herb.
That morning, the valley suddenly became unusually quiet. The atmosphere was also very depressing. There were not many people in the market, and Audrey keenly sensed that something was unusual.
Leaving Klein and the others behind, Audrey went alone to the most mysterious place in the valley, which was the residence of the Valley Master.
Over the past few days, Audrey had also investigated the situation in the valley. The Valley Master and some of the important Elders in the valley basically lived nearby.
Afraid of being followed, Audrey had never come to investigate. Today, she had no choice but to come here.
Outside the few houses, the atmosphere seemed to be even more serious and heavy. Audrey hid in a corner and looked at the disciples coming and going with a sorrowful expression.
There seemed to be a lot of people standing in the middle of the house. Audrey guessed that the valley master was probably inside, but she could not barge in rashly. She would definitely be chased out as a threat to the Herb King Valley.
After standing outside for a while, she did not find anything else. Audrey could not help but sigh and took half a step back. Unexpectedly, she stepped on a withered branch behind her, making a creaking sound.
“Who’s outside?” A sharp voice immediately came from inside the room. A figure was about to barge out.
Audrey’s expression tensed. She hurriedly flashed away and went to another place. Not far away, there were two disciples brewing soup.
Audrey stopped in time and quietly looked at the two disciples.
“The decoction has been drunk for half a year. The Valley Master is still not getting better.” One of the disciples sighed and said helplessly.
