Chapter 742: Chapter 741: 741: The Emergence of Herbs_1

Both groups headed in different directions.

Ethan Smith chose the southeast, while Grandma Smith and others chose the east.

Both sides seemed to think the other was stupid, with sarcastic expressions on their faces.

“Ethan Smith, why are you going in a different direction from them?” At this point, Lovell Pauley and Perry Elliott approached him.

Ethan Smith glanced at them and said, “Because their direction is wrong.”

Upon hearing this, Lovell Pauley couldn’t help but laugh, “Do you really think you’re a master of Deducing Heavenly Secrets?”

“Believe it or not.” Ethan Smith was too lazy to talk to them.

Lovell Pauley and Perry Elliott looked at each other and then sneered, “Ethan Smith, this is your own missed opportunity. It’s not our problem if you can’t get your hands on the herbs. You’ll have to explain it to Rex Osborne yourself!”

“Get lost,” Ethan Smith waved impatiently.

The group continued southeast.

During this time, Ethan Smith and the man with the mustache were extremely cautious, scanning the surroundings with their divine sense, looking for the deduced position.

Soon, the two arrived at a dense forest and stopped.

“This is it,” the man with the mustache and Ethan Smith said in unison.

Ethan Smith looked around and found that there was nothing unusual about the surroundings or the scenery.

“Normally, the place where Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials appear should have a special scene,” Ethan Smith frowned.

Either the trees would grow extraordinarily lush, or it would be extremely desolate. But this place was too ordinary, so ordinary that people wouldn’t take a second look.

“That’s what you don’t understand,” the man with the mustache explained.

“Based on my years of experience, treasures like these are different from ordinary treasures. They seem to have developed a consciousness and know how to hide themselves.

“So there won’t be any unusual signs, the purpose is to confuse everyone.”

Ethan Smith nodded slightly, agreeing with the man with the mustache’s view.

“Let’s just wait here then,” Ethan Smith said.

The twenty-odd people waited for the appearance of the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials.

Elsewhere.

Ms. Hayward and her group also reached their destination.

Gazing at the surrounding environment, Ms. Hayward nodded slightly.

“The trees here grow exceptionally lush because of the qi brought by the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials!” Baldwin Daniels said with a faint smile.

Everyone nodded and said, “The scenery here is indeed different from other places.”

“It seems that Master Daniels is right, the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials will be born here.”

However, Ms. Hayward was somewhat worried.

She wasn’t afraid of Ethan Smith’s judgment, but she was afraid that The Noble Family would have a master to guide them and find out the location of the medicinal materials.

With that in mind, Ms. Hayward waved her hand and called over a man in a purple robe.

“Go and check on Ethan Smith’s side to see if there’s anything unusual,” Ms. Hayward said coldly.

The man in the purple robe bowed, “Yes.”

He then released his divine sense to locate Ethan Smith.

Time passed by the minute, and Ethan Smith and the others chatted while they waited.

“Hmm?”

At this moment, Ethan Smith suddenly sensed a flash of activity.

Although it was only for an instant, it couldn’t escape Ethan Smith’s keen divine sense.

“Spying for information?” Ethan Smith narrowed his eyes, guessing the purpose of the breath.

Of course, Ethan Smith wasn’t worried at all.

Because there was nothing special about the scenery here.

The man in the purple robe hiding in the shadows swept his gaze over the scene and sneered, “It would be a wonder if medicinal materials could come out of this place!”

After he said this, he turned and returned to Ms. Hayward’s side.

“Ms. Hayward, I’ve checked, there’s nothing there,” the man in the purple robe said.

“There’s nothing remarkable about the scene, and there’s no fluctuation of qi, not at all like the signs of treasures.”

Hearing this, Ms. Hayward finally relaxed.

“It seems I’ve overestimated The Noble Family!” Ms. Hayward squinted her eyes and said quietly.

Time continued to pass, and in the blink of an eye, it was noon.

“Why hasn’t the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials appeared yet?” the man with the mustache couldn’t help but grumble.

Ethan Smith wasn’t in a hurry, he closed his eyes slightly and said quietly, “Let’s wait a little longer.”

The man with the mustache was anxious but had no other choice.

Meanwhile, at the location of Ms. Hayward’s side, a wave of herbal fragrance filled the air!

“Rumble…”

The ground suddenly began to shake! Web-like cracks appeared in front of everyone!

“The medicinal materials are about to appear!” Ms. Hayward said excitedly.

Not just Ms. Hayward, everyone’s heart was on edge!

“Boom!”

Another loud roar! Then, a white burst of light shot into the sky!

Such a scene was clearly visible even to Ethan Smith and the others!

“Did we get our position wrong?” The man with the mustache couldn’t help but frown.

Ethan Smith was also somewhat worried.

This was his first attempt at deducing heavenly secrets, and it was not impossible for mistakes to occur!

“Boom!”

From the east came eight flashes of light! Then, they saw an explosion-like brilliance in the sky!

“It’s the medicinal materials!” Ms. Hayward’s eyes narrowed, and she was overjoyed!

Seeing this, everyone couldn’t contain their excitement. Some even set off towards the medicinal materials!

Ms. Hayward narrowed her eyes and snorted, “The medicinal materials are mine, no one else can steal them!”

Following that, Ms. Hayward leaped into action, and her several subordinates in purple robes followed closely behind!

“Boom!”

With a wave of Ms. Hayward’s hand, she directly killed a Marquis blocking her way!

“Whoever dares to compete with me will be an enemy of the Capital City Martial Arts Association!” Ms. Hayward warned.

Hearing this, the faces of everyone present changed slightly, and some even gave up on the spot.

The eight men in purple robes quickly cast techniques, producing chains from their palms!

These chains formed a large net, blocking everyone’s way!

Taking advantage of the situation, Ms. Hayward reached out and grabbed the medicinal materials in her hand!

The light dimmed, and she held a crystal-clear medicinal material in her hand.

Ms. Hayward toyed with the medicinal material and said calmly, “This medicinal material is mine.”

Although everyone was unwilling, they didn’t dare to offend Ms. Hayward.

“Ms. Hayward, I was right in my predictions, wasn’t I?” Baldwin Daniels approached and said with a smile.

Ms. Hayward praised, “You have some skills, Master Daniels. Don’t worry, I won’t go back on my promise to you.”

Baldwin Daniels quickly bowed, “Thank you, Ms. Hayward!”

Just as Ms. Hayward was celebrating her success, a Marquis suddenly approached her.

He looked at the medicinal material in Ms. Hayward’s hand and frowned, “Ms. Hayward, this doesn’t seem to be a Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Material, does it?”

Ms. Hayward glanced at him and said, “What do you mean?”

The Marquis said, “I also know a bit about medicinal materials. Based on my experience, this is not a Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Material at all, but a medicinal material around five thousand years old.”
