At this time, the people from Heavenly Gate hadn't reacted yet. Some were comprehending, some were staring blankly at the numerous monster beast corpses before them, while others hadn't thought of this. This was a very good opportunity to retreat.
So the snow wolf led the wolf pack in retreat...
"What a pity. This snow wolf is so beautiful, it would be great if it could be my monster beast," Dongfang Wunian didn't think much about it, just liking beautiful things to become her pets.
"Yes, such a pity, such beautiful fur..." Xiaoyao agreed, but his agreement left Dongfang Wunian somewhat speechless.
Regardless, after this snow wolf's departure, it probably wouldn't live much longer. What a pity for its current achievements, perhaps after some more time, it could have further become the apex of monster beasts.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi suddenly jumped onto the snow wolf's head, shouting loudly at Xiaoyao.
"Chi Chi, what are you doing? Don't tell me you want to go with it?" Xiaoyao was very surprised by Chi Chi's action.
"Chi chi..." Chi Chi continued jumping and calling, seeming to say something, but only Xiaoyao could understand these words. Others had no idea what Chi Chi meant, even a monster beast like the snow wolf didn't understand what Chi Chi was saying.
...
...
"You mean, you want me to save it," Xiaoyao frowned.
When Xiaoyao said this, everyone seemed to look at Xiaoyao with some expectation, perhaps not having thought that Xiaoyao could even treat monster beasts.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi nodded.
"Its internal organs are shattered. I have no way either. If not for its strong body, it would have died already," Xiaoyao shook his head.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi looked very displeased, then a human face appeared on its fur, Nangong Suxin's face. Obviously it was saying that Nangong Suxin had also been severely injured, and Xiaoyao had still healed her.
Regarding Chi Chi's fur ability, Xiaoyao had seen it long ago. Chi Chi could simulate things it imagined within a certain range. Except for different colors, both shape and size could be mimicked.
"You mean her? She's a friend, and saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, but this is just a monster beast. I won't waste large amounts of energy and pills for a monster beast," Xiaoyao said.
"Chi chi..."
"You're an exception!"
"Chi chi..."
"What? You insist on healing it, even if it costs large quantities of pills?" Xiaoyao frowned.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi nodded.
"You little glutton, the pills are all mine, you don't care. Actually, its injury isn't without solution. Originally I don't have materials to save it, but today we just happened to obtain something that can save it, but the cost is too great," Xiaoyao was somewhat resistant, not wanting to pay this price.
What he had obtained today was that ten-thousand-year ginseng. He had wanted to keep it for his own use. If given to this snow wolf, it could indeed heal it, after all, this was ten-thousand-year old ginseng.
But precisely because it was ten-thousand-year old ginseng, this made Xiaoyao very reluctant.
The ten-thousand-year ginseng just obtained, you want me to use it now, and for a monster beast at that, a monster beast unrelated to me, with no benefits after use. What kind of situation is this.
"Chi chi..." Chi Chi continued calling.
"Alright, I'm afraid of you. I'll treat it, okay," Xiaoyao finally agreed helplessly. Yes, he agreed. Even though the cost was great, even though there were no benefits, since Chi Chi insisted so strongly, Xiaoyao had no choice but to follow Chi Chi's wishes.
From this, one could see that in Xiaoyao's heart, Chi Chi's position was very important. Even the value of ten-thousand-year ginseng wasn't worth Chi Chi's pleading. He doted on Chi Chi greatly.
Of course, if he weren't someone who didn't value material possessions much, even if he loved Chi Chi, he couldn't possibly use such precious ten-thousand-year ginseng.
"I'll save you. Give me the black tiger's inner core in exchange," Xiaoyao was still somewhat pained and wouldn't be happy without finding some compensation.
"If you can save me, take anything here," the snow wolf said to Xiaoyao. It had just witnessed Xiaoyao's medical skills, although only on humans, but perhaps he could save it too. As long as it was saved, what was the black tiger's inner core? It could protect the wolf pack and eliminate the entire black tiger clan.
"Good! Deal!" After Xiaoyao spoke, he inserted needles into the snow wolf's body. Although monster beasts' acupoints were somewhat different from humans', the most important places were the same. This was almost identical for all living beings, only humans had the most acupoints, while other beings had fewer, sometimes many fewer.
The less intelligent they were, the fewer acupoints they seemed to have. Xiaoyao suspected acupoints might be important for opening spiritual apertures, and human cultivation was exactly cultivating acupoints.
Also, Monster Clan transforming into humans might be because humans had the most acupoints and most perfect meridians, making them the easiest beings to cultivate. This might be heaven's gift to humans.
Next, Xiaoyao input Divine Farmer True Qi. This Divine Farmer True Qi was excellent healing qi for humans, monster beasts, any living beings, or even plants.
Of course, this alone definitely wouldn't work, or Xiaoyao would have done it long ago. After temporarily protecting the snow wolf's meridians and organs, Xiaoyao took out that ginseng, looking very reluctant. Finally gritting his teeth, he still handed it to the snow wolf.
"Wait, this is thousand-year ginseng? And the age isn't low, definitely over three thousand years!" the medicinal garden person shouted. When Xiaoyao first took it out, they already understood it was ginseng, but now it seemed this ginseng had considerable age, definitely over a thousand years.
If it were thousand-year ginseng, it would be very top-grade medicinal material. Thousand-year was already very rare, and ten-thousand-year they felt was something that could only be encountered by chance, never imagined.
Generally, at most they would think of three-thousand-year ginseng, or maybe five or six thousand years. Above that, they didn't dare imagine.
Therefore, they would never think the ginseng in Xiaoyao's hand was ten-thousand-year ginseng, and twenty thousand at that.
"Thousand years? If it were thousand years, I wouldn't be so pained..." Xiaoyao said indifferently. He said pained, but seemed to have no feeling anymore.
Because once Xiaoyao made a decision, he wouldn't continue feeling pained. At most, he would only feel pain when making the decision. Now he had resolve and had looked past it.
He'd just consider that he hadn't obtained anything today. Anyway, this ten-thousand-year ginseng was picked up for free.
As for strength, working hard in the future and eating more pills would also allow rapid breakthroughs.
"What? You mean this ginseng is ten-thousand-year ginseng?"
If it wasn't a thousand-year, it must be ten-thousand-year, or Xiaoyao wouldn't have said this.
"Mm, ten thousand years, twenty thousand actually. You're really getting a bargain. Not only will your injuries recover, your cultivation will probably greatly increase," After Xiaoyao nodded, he spoke to the snow wolf. His hands didn't stop either, pressing on the snow wolf's body, inputting Divine Farmer True Qi, and when necessary, helping organize the qi within the snow wolf's body.
Because of this, Xiaoyao's hands were moving all over the snow wolf's body. The feel was quite good, what a pity, this fur was too good. He seemed to still regret not being able to peel off the snow wolf's skin.
"Ten-thousand-year ginseng? Twenty thousand years? You gave it to eat? Do you know that ginseng's value? Give it to anyone and they could become a peerless expert," After being stunned for a while, the medicinal garden person spoke to Xiaoyao again.
Their conversation also made others understand that the ginseng Xiaoyao gave was so precious. Even if they didn't know the specific value, they could understand from the age alone. The medicinal garden person's explanation that it could create a peerless expert made the value even clearer.
Everyone looked at Xiaoyao uncomprehendingly. They couldn't believe Xiaoyao could produce such heaven-defying items and even give them to a monster beast for use, a monster beast obviously met for the first time, with absolutely no benefit to him.
Inner core? Could that value compare?
Could it be just because of his little monster beast?
Dongfang Wunian looked at Xiaoyao. She felt this idea was somewhat unbelievable.
Xiaoyao wasted a ten-thousand-year ginseng because of Chi Chi. But from the process, it seemed exactly like this.
For one's own little monster pet, was this necessary?
Even Dongfang Wunian found it unbelievable, let alone others.
"No choice, this little glutton probably took a liking to it and insisted I save it. What could I do,” Xiaoyao replied very helplessly.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi seemed to have objections.
"..." Everyone heard Xiaoyao's words and seemed to feel it was unbelievable, yet Xiaoyao seemed serious.
"Chi Chi, are you sure it's female?" Xiaoyao glanced at Chi Chi and asked.
"Chi chi!" Chi Chi jumped and spoke.
"..." The snow wolf didn't speak because it couldn't speak. At this time, it was fully focused on dissolving the ten-thousand-year ginseng's medicinal power, not only for its life but also for this once-in-a-lifetime advancement opportunity.
Even in the center of Heavenly Heart Mountain, something like ten-thousand-year ginseng was top-grade, even ordinary Monster Clan would find it hard to possess.
"Huh, it really seems to be female, the body has some feminine qualities..." Xiaoyao verified again, of course not by looking at physical characteristics but examining internal conditions.
Generally speaking, females were naturally yin-attributed with stronger yin qi. Of course, there were special cases of yin-yang reversal, but such situations were very, very rare...
Are you treating or playing? Dongfang Wunian somewhat doubted Xiaoyao's behavior.
