After returning to their lodgings and having dinner, everyone sat down around a table to discuss the matter.

Zhou Ao said, "I originally wanted to meet with Boss Dong beforehand today, but he refused to see anyone, and I couldn't get any more information from him. Tomorrow, people from both the legitimate and criminal worlds will be here to seize the medicinal herbs. There will definitely be a lot of people, so everyone must be careful of others trying to sabotage us."

"I just don't know the exact quantity of these herbs. If there are a lot, that's fine too." Zhou Yi said thoughtfully.

"Hehehe, that's hard to say. If that herb is really that magical, who wouldn't want to have more?" Feng Jian disagreed.

What he said was true. People are never satisfied; if you can get it by taking a chance, of course you should give it a try.

Chen Wei, who had remained silent until now, said, "I have only one request."

"Please speak," Zhou Ao said, somewhat puzzled.

"After I gather the herbs, I will return to my country immediately."

Zhou Ao expressed his understanding, "Please rest assured, as soon as I get the herbs tomorrow, I will take you to where I park my private plane and leave here immediately."

Everyone naturally knows why he's not revealing the address where his private jet is parked, so there's no need to make a fool of himself.

However, Ye Yu hesitated. If she left immediately after getting the herbs, she wouldn't be able to help He Qiuzhi.

Ye Yu, the poor man, felt a pang of pain in his heart. Five pieces of old mine glass-type jadeite and thirty gold bars!

Ye Yu was feeling annoyed when Zhou Ao stood up first. "Alright, everyone get some rest. We'll set off promptly at six o'clock tomorrow morning."

The group dispersed and went back to their rooms.

As soon as Ye Yu entered the room, He Qiuzhi knocked on the door, "Miss Ye, I'm coming in."

"Come in." Ye Yu had guessed that she would come to see her.

He got straight to the point: "Miss He, I'm afraid I can't help you this time."

He Qiuzhi smiled when she heard this. "Is it because you're afraid of missing your flight?"

Ye Yu nodded.

"Don't worry about that. Hu Hong also has a private jet. We'll leave as soon as we find Yin Yin."

Huh? Ye Yu was stunned for a moment: "You can fly a plane?"

"What? Can't I fly a plane?" He Qiuzhi asked with a half-smile.

Ye Yu awkwardly tossed her hair. "In that case, where should we meet?"

He Qiuzhi didn't waste any more words after Ye Yu agreed. "After we get the herbs tomorrow, there's a pagoda on the north side of the mountain. Walk two kilometers west of the pagoda and you'll see a big banyan tree. We'll meet there."

“Okay, but if you haven’t arrived by 5 p.m., then I’ll have to leave.” Ye Yu said.

"Don't worry, I won't be here by then, so you don't need to wait for me," He Qiuzhi said, expressing her understanding.

After discussing it for a while, He Qiuzhi returned to her room.

After everyone left, Ye Yu sat cross-legged on the bed and began to ponder.

I am now at the third level of Qi Refining, and I can use the Fireball Technique. Although the Fireball Technique is much more powerful than the Fireball Talisman, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy and cannot be used lightly.

Right now, her only weapons are steel balls and a few talismans.

Thinking of this, Ye Yu flipped her hands, revealing several pieces of jade and a mid-grade cloud crystal. She prepared to refine a simple array.

It wasn't until late at night that Ye Yu, pale-faced, opened her eyes. She looked at the simple array floating in the air with a joyful expression.

Ye Yu breathed a sigh of relief as she put it back in her hand; this formation was her biggest trump card.

"It would be even better if we could get the materials from that giant python tomorrow. We can use them to refine magical artifacts or formations."

Ye Yu made up her mind, then calmed herself down, closed her eyes, and began to recover her spiritual energy.

The next day, while it was still dark, Ye Yu opened the door and looked downstairs to see more than a dozen cars already ready to go.

She went downstairs and ate breakfast leisurely, then walked to the dam with He Qiuzhi and the others.

Apeng and Ali carried several backpacks and handed them to the girls, saying, "There are some basic medicines, food, and pagers inside so you can stay in touch."

Everyone reached out and took it.

Zhou Ao walked over and asked, "Is everyone ready? Let's get going."

Ye Yu spoke first: "Boss Zhou, after we collect the herbs today, I won't be going back with you. I'll be going with the others."

Hearing Ye Yu's words, everyone was somewhat surprised, but Zhou Ao expressed his understanding, after all, this Miss Ye's master was nearby.

He Qiuzhi also said, "I'm still waiting for someone here, so I won't leave with you."

When she said this, Apeng was checking the supplies on the truck and didn't hear her. Zhou Ao also expressed her understanding, but did not intend to tell Apeng.

A group of eleven cars set off towards the address given by Boss Dong. However, when they were almost there, the cars could not go any further because the road was completely blocked by parked vehicles.

Having no other choice, the group had to carry their luggage and continue forward.

Along the way, there were people dressed in all sorts of ways, including many women, and even some elderly people in their seventies or eighties.

The old man was being carried on the back of a burly bodyguard; his face was pale and his eyes were closed.

A Peng, who was traveling with them, exclaimed, "They're all so old and they still come to join in the fun. Aren't they afraid that they'll die before they can even get the medicine?"

"Apeng!"

Zhou Ao frowned and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. The people here are not to be trifled with. Be careful not to get into trouble."

Apeng replied in a low voice, "We're a bit far apart, and those foreigners can't understand me."

No sooner had he finished speaking than several Indians of medium build, with light-skinned, dark-haired features, looked at the old man with a grin as he spoke, seemingly mocking him.

The bodyguard next to the old man seemed to understand and raised his gun towards the group of people.

But before they could fire, they were stopped, and the bodyguards could only glare fiercely at the group.

Seeing this, Apeng swallowed hard. "They can really understand it?"

He touched his nose and stopped talking.

The group fell silent and quickened their pace to move closer to where Boss Dong was.

Upon reaching an open area, they found it surrounded by people, presumably where Boss Dong was.

Ye Yu and the others also found a place to rest, but soon the crowd became noisy.

Ali stood up and looked towards the center, then turned to Zhou Ao, "Boss, it's Boss Dong who's appeared."

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and looked in the direction of Boss Dong.

In the center of the crowd, there was a table, and a man of average appearance, with his hair tied back and of medium height, stood on it.

However, perhaps because he ate the herbs, he had gained a mysterious aura.

"This person must be Boss Dong," Ye Yu thought to himself.

Sure enough, the person spoke.

"I, Dong, am a rough man, so I won't bother with formalities. Everyone here is here for the herbs, so I'll just say two things." As he spoke, Boss Dong held up one finger.

"First, I can't guarantee the quantity of the herbs. After all, they're guarded by a giant python. What if that beast ate them all?"

"Secondly, don't underestimate that python. It's a supernatural creature, impervious to swords and bullets, and even rocket launchers can't do anything to it."

Boss Dong glanced around and smiled, "I won't waste any more words. Everyone must be getting impatient, let's set off!"

After he finished speaking, he jumped off the table and led the way up the mountain.

Zhou Ao glanced at everyone and instructed, "Everyone, stay close and be careful of your surroundings."

Everyone nodded and then followed the crowd.
