“What kind of secrets can there be in the Four Great Sanctuaries?”

“Times have changed, and the earth’s spiritual essence in the atmosphere is thinner. Even if those

places are the Four Great Cultivation Sanctuaries, it wouldn’t be the same as before. I once went to the

Mountain Warrior Sect and found that the spiritual essence in the air was very thin. It wasn’ t any better

than what you can see in the Flying Eagles Academy, and it’s not even comparable to the inside of the

ancient boundary.”

“There are many of the Mountain Warriors disciples that enter the Flying Eagles Academy. Some even

come looking for a master here!”

When the Fairy Doctor spoke of the Four Great Sanctuaries, she seemed a little disapproving. It was

probably because she thought that the Four Great Sanctuaries had long since fallen from grace and

were no longer as powerful as they were before.

They even tried to curry favor with the Flying Eagles Academy.

“Look at this!”

Alex tossed her the ancient jade bracelet in his hand. As the middle-aged man had already died, the

soul imprint on the ancient jade bracelet had also been dispersed. Thus, anyone could insert their

spiritual consciousness inside it to check its contents.

When the Fairy Doctor examined it, she let out a cry of surprise immediately. “There are so many

things inside it!”

She looked at Alex in astonishment.

“Look at the quality of it,” Alex said.

This time, the Fairy Doctor studied it for a full five minutes. When she finally came back to her senses,

there were many emotions in her expression.

“There’s something wrong with it!”

She also immediately noticed that something was wrong. “Many items in this storage bracelet can’t be

found inside the Flying Eagles Academy, and some of them only appear inside the ancient boundary.

These are resources that are non-tradable either because the academy wouldn’t sell any of these

items. Also, the ones that the academy has gotten had long since been divided and distributed. So how

did the Mountain Warriors get their hands on it?”

“Earlier, that man revealed something to me,” Alex said. “The disciples that they sent to the academy

were all just an act.”

“So, that’s why you’re saying that the Four Great Sanctuaries are not some poor sods!” the Fairy

Doctor said.

Alex nodded. “That man was just the sect master’s nephew, yet he has such a wealth of resources that

are comparable to all the inventory in the Flying Eagles Academy. The stuff he has is also of a higher

level. Just think about how much more the person in control of them has?”

He paused. “I have a bold thought, whether the Four Great Sanctuaries have already been able to

enter the ancient boundary a long time ago, and… Whether there’s something bigger they’re hiding.”

“For example… ?”

“For example, whether they have a trade relation with the sects and cities inside it?”

The Fairy Doctor was stunned by the thought. She pondered about it and then said, “I think… I need to

talk to my godbrother.”

Alex nodded, then grabbed the Warm Jade Bed from the ancient jade bracelet and gave it back to the

Fairy Doctor. “Sis Winslet, I only need the bed. This ancient jade bracelet should be a good treasure to

use, and there are also supplies inside it. Keep them and put them to good use. I won’t go with you to

see Principal Henderson.”

“This is yours.” The Fairy Doctor shook her head. “I don’t want to owe you anything.”

Alex thought about it, then grabbed half of the spiritual tools inside and placed them in his storage ring.

“Okay, I only need these, and that’s enough. The other things are not very useful to me, and I also took

the storage ring. It’s also considered to be spoils of war. Besides, a bracelet is more fitting for a

woman.”

When Alex said that, the Fairy Doctor laughed. “Then, I shall accept this as a token of your love.”

The two kissed their goodbyes in the woods.

Once the Fairy Doctor left, Alex flicked his finger to burn the corpse on the ground before he left.

By the time Alex arrived back at Maple Villa, it was already dusk.

He placed Holly on the Warm Jade Bed and activated the formation on it. Soon, the spiritual essence in

their surroundings started to gather on the bed. After a while, the spiritual mist evaporated, and the

formation pulled on fairy power from far away.

The few people around them were shocked.

Even though they weren’t lying on the Warm Jade Bed, they could still reap the benefits from it. The

effect of the Warm Jade Bed condensing the spiritual essence around them was much stronger than

the formations Alex had made to imitate it.

“With the bed, Holly can last a bit longer,” Alex said.

Maya watched as the spiritual essence from far away was condensed from a distance and how it all

formed a spiritual vortex above the villa. She couldn’t help but voice her worry. “Isn’t this a little too

obvious? Cultivators will notice it right away, and I’m afraid that it might attract some people that will

come coveting it.”

Alex furrowed his brows and glanced at it, then said, “It is indeed too conspicuous.”

At this moment, Seiryuu, one of the Four Great Princesses that they had scurried away from the

Coleman family, said, “My lord, why don’t we go to the uninhabited island from before? The spiritual

essence in the atmosphere on the sea is stronger by a little, and it’s not easy to attract the attention of

others there.”

After everyone discussed it, it was decided that they did just that.
