Although there was still a distance until the Blood of Yellow Flame finished growing completely, Jun Mo Xie was still very satisfied with its growth!
After all, Jun Mo Xie would not need to carry out a slaughter if there wasn’t a need to do so, just to satisfy the needs of Blood of Yellow Flame.
Because a divine sword borne of too much slaughter would instead create unstable effects.
If the Blood of Yellow Flame turned into nothing but a mindless bloodthirsty weapon, it would defeat his initial intentions!
Thus, he would only draw his sword when he had to kill!
That way, the sword would follow his will, instead of its own bloodthirst.
That was the difference in quality.
Only a sword nurtured like that would truly belong to oneself, never being in danger of going out of control!
“Yellow Flame ah… do you know the conflicted feelings in my heart?” Jun Mo Xie sighed as he made the Blood of Yellow Flame hover in front of him.
The Blood of Yellow Flame hummed lightly in response, seemingly replying to him.
Jun Mo Xie could feel the despondent gloom in the sword, and he laughed. “Right now, you are the only thing that understands me. The matters here… it’s truly difficult to be as carefree as before…”
The divine sword flashed, as a thick killing intent surged out of it.
“You’re not trying to say that we should kill everyone right?” Jun Mo Xie laughed bitterly. “How could it be so easy? The most difficult things in life are the problems of the heart. It has nothing to do with the strength of the enemy… If the entire Misty Illusory Manor is my enemy, I wouldn’t be so troubled…”
The Blood of Yellow Flame flew up lazily and with a clang, it directly shot back into its sheath. Clearly, it was confused and couldn’t be bothered with Jun Mo Xie’s complaining any longer, directly returning to sleep…
“F*ck!” Jun Mo Xie scolded laughingly. “Nurturing a sword… to think that I’ve also nurtured a temper from it…”
With his thoughts in disarray, Jun Mo Xie walked towards the Spirit Vein to check on Green Hunter’s condition.
Looking at the green robed beauty deep in sleep before him, Jun Mo Xie suddenly felt an indescribable thump in his heart as he looked at the same peaceful look on her face when she blocked the lethal attack for him…
Ever since he transferred her here, he’d been coming in several times everyday to accompany her, talk to her, transfer some Spiritual Qi to her, and massage her muscles to prevent them from atrophying…
Three times a day, he would he would infuse three drops of Spirit Fruit Juice into her abdomen to maintain her life force…
As time passed, Jun Mo Xie began to understand why she had sacrificed herself, throwing her body in front of him that time. And because he understood, his heart hurt even more…
Because of love!
And this was still a hopeless love, a love that was bound to yield no results!
Since I can’t get your person, I’ll just sacrifice myself for you!
Because he was the lover of her most respected Eldest Sister Mei Xue Yan…
“Was it truly worth it? You’re just lying there, not saying a single word. But you don’t even know the feelings of the person whom you sacrificed yourself to save…” Jun Mo Xie mumbled. “Hurry up and wake up, Green Hunter… I will not let you be sad anymore. Whatever you want to get, you can have…”
The same faint gentle smile hung on the side of Green Hunter’s lips…
“Ai…” Jun Mo Xie sighed heavily. “I will definitely make you wake up as soon as possible! And I will also take you to explore the world, view the tall mountains and great rivers of the world… No matter what it takes, I will let you… wake up! Don’t worry, Green Hunter! Your love is not a hopeless one. You will definitely get all that your heart desires!”
After looking at her for a bit longer, Jun Mo Xie sighed heavily and walked away to another side.
On the other side of the Spirit Vein, was a half meter deep pond that he’d carved out for the Exquisite Lotus. If he dug too deeply, Jun Mo Xie was afraid that the Golden Jade Fluid would flow out, so he only dug for half a meter…
Although the Heaven Earth Spirit Vein was not as wide as the pond at the Heaven Saint Palace, its length was quite impressive, stretching over 10 zhang long. It wouldn’t be a problem even if there were many more Exquisite Lotuses!
A thick layer of mist covered the entire manmade pond.
That was not any ordinary mist… it was the condensation of the purest Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi!
The water in the pond was incomparably clear, all of them being the essence of Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi! Even if all the experts of the Heaven Saint Palace and Misty Illusory Manor joined hands, they would not be able to produce such pure Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi Water!
Two, three pieces of translucent lotus leaves floated quietly atop the water’s surface. Below it, two more buds could be seen, waiting to bloom.

Each piece of lotus leaf floating on the water was about the size of a fist. And judging from the thickness of the leaves, they seemed to still have plenty of space for growth before blooming completely…
One had to know, that in the Heaven Saint Palace, the largest these lotus leaves grew to was merely the size of a thumb! But the ones here had already grown to the size of a fist, and seemed to still have plenty of potential to grow even bigger… If Qiao Ying, the person who had been in charge of taking care of them, could see them now, she would definitely go wild with joy!
As for the lotus roots embedded among the bed of loose spirit stones, they’d already become as thick as a person’s middle finger… they were at least four times larger than their original size!
As he examined his handiwork, Jun Mo Xie felt quite satisfied internally as he laughed aloud. “Qiao Ying, ah Qiao Ying, if you could see these things growing over ten times faster with this Young Master’s aid, you would probably want to send yourself over to my side too… HAHA…”
Inside the pond, exactly one meter apart from each other, were tiny pieces of transparent leaves floating. These were only the size of thumbs…
If one counted carefully, they would find exactly 20 stalks!
These were naturally the 20 Exquisite Lotus seeds that Jun Mo Xie had taken from Qiao Ying.
With the amazing help of the Hongjun Pagoda, every single one of these 20 seeds had survived, growing well in this pool of Spiritual Qi!
Or perhaps one should say, that to the three Holy Lands, the Exquisite Lotus was an exceedingly precious treasure. But to the Hongjun Pagoda, they were just slightly more valuable seeds. If they survived, so be it. There was nothing to be too amazed about! If they couldn’t survive, that would be the strange thing!
Jun Mo Xie strolled up and down the side of the pond, clasping his hands behind his back, and smiled in satisfaction like an aged farmer…
All of a sudden, Jun Mo Xie had a sudden inspiration. Since I intend to use the Power of the Five Elements to help the Rainbow Holy Tree grow faster, perhaps I can try the same with these Exquisite Lotus?
Thinking of that, Jun Mo Xie walked to the most rear Exquisite Lotus and stretched his hand out, lightly touching the leaf. After that, he roused the long unused Power of Wood!
A green radiance surged out of his body, slowly turning into a huge green halo. Wave after wave, the green radiance pulsed out continuously. Before the first wave disappeared, the next one had appeared…
Following that, the green waves passed through his hand and into the little Exquisite Lotus.
All of a sudden, the entire stalk of Exquisite Lotus began to shake in the water…
After that, the thumb sized lotus leaf actually began to grow at a visible rate, expanding slowly, growing larger and larger… Soon, it was the size of a palm, then double the size of a palm…
Not only the leaf, even the roots and stem also grew sturdier and more robust, not as weak as before. At the end, the entire plant was erect and stiff shoots continuously formed, turning into wide lotus leaves..
Right before Jun Mo Xie’s eyes, a particularly thick stem grew out, and pink buds appeared on its side, slowly blooming. Soon, the entire area was filled with the thick fragrance of the flowers…
The lotus bloomed resplendently, but after a time, they slowly wilted, turning into seed pods. The colors of the seed pods grew deeper, and the lotus seed pods under the water also began to grow bigger and thicker…
Finally, an area of three chi was all completely filled with lotus leaves. And the seed pods under the water had also turned as thick as an infant’s arm and as large as a palm…
A seedpod of this size was 7 to 10 times larger than the one at the Heaven Saint Palace!
Jun Mo Xie looked at this seedpod with amazement, unable to withhold himself from clapping and whooping with joy!
It turned out that everything… was actually this simple!
But suddenly, he realized that something was wrong… why were these lotus leaves so empty?
Water… erm, where’s the water?
Only now did Jun Mo Xie realize that the entire pond of pure Spiritual Qi water had actually completely disappeared… only leaving a completely parched pond…
Just growing a single stalk of Exquisite Lotus actually needed so much energy?!
Jun Mo Xie nearly fainted with shock!
So it turned out that these things were so good at burning money!
Not having the time to be shocked, Jun Mo Xie hurriedly used the Power of the Five Elements:
“Power of Water! Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi, hear my commands, turn into water for me!” Jun Mo Xie waved his hand and activated the Power of Water…
A ball of blue light burst out of Jun Mo Xie’s body with a hong sound…
If these treasures all died because of a lack of water… Young Master Jun would truly have nowhere to shed his tears…
The thick Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi above Jun Mo Xie’s head spiralled into a vortex, turning thicker and thicker with richer colors. Finally, with a gushing sound, a spout of clear water poured down like a waterfall, filling the little pond in a short moment.
Without pausing, Jun Mo Xie continued using the Power of Water, drawing the Hongjun Pagoda’s Spiritual Qi and transforming it into water. Then, he moved to the second budding Exquisite Lotus and with a loud shout, the Power of Wood was activated again.
