After transmigrating, I made a name for myself through my culinary skills.

Cultivators have very keen ears, so in order to prevent Sang Yu from hearing, Ye Lan would not speak directly, but communicate with them through divine sense.

Ye Lan didn't intend to hide this from Jiang Nan. Although he was usually a glutton, he was reliable and could keep secrets. When Jiang Nan heard about this, he was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he discussed with the two of them what to do next.

The three of them sat on the snow outside plotting their scheme. When others came out, they saw them gazing at the starry sky in silence.

The shrimp in the lake were still emitting a blue glow. The battle hadn't affected them much; at most, the falling rocks had startled them, but things returned to normal afterward.

The person who came out was Su Ye. His cousin, Su Bo, was still inside helping to take care of the wounded. Although no one had died, everyone was in a bad mood after what had happened. He felt that the atmosphere inside was somewhat oppressive and irritating, so he came out.

Su Bo had also thought of this; he also felt the atmosphere inside was oppressive, but he couldn't abandon Nangong Yue.

After seeing the state of the three people, Su Ye glanced at them a few times, then followed their example and looked up at the starry sky. Although the starry sky was beautiful, it was no different from what he had seen a few days ago.

So Su Ye asked doubtfully, "Are the stars in the sky really that beautiful?"

When Ye Lan and the others noticed someone coming out, they had already stopped plotting. Now they were simply looking at the stars, so he replied, "They're beautiful. Look at those stars, don't they look like hunters drawing their bows and shooting arrows?"

The stars he was pointing to were in the constellation Orion. The Milky Way here was the same as the one he had seen in his previous life, except that there was no light pollution, making it even brighter and more dazzling.

Moreover, the stargazing on Xinghu Island always seems exceptionally beautiful and dazzling. I wonder if that's why it's called Xinghu Island.

Su Ye looked in the direction Ye Lan pointed, and after observing carefully, said, "Now that you mention it, it's true."

If no one paid him any attention and just watched quietly, he simply sat down as well. The night was too quiet, with only the sound of the wind. After a while, Su Ye asked again, "Aren't you going to sit here all night? Don't you need to go inside and rest?"

Jiang Nan replied, "Wait a little longer, the sun will be up soon."

They decided to close their eyes and cultivate to absorb spiritual energy right there. Since a barrier had been set up around them, the wind couldn't reach them, so it was very safe. When the time came, they could see the sunrise as soon as they opened their eyes.

At dawn, directly in front of them, to the east, the sky near the ground first turned a pale pinkish-purple. As time passed, the sun slowly rose. There was some morning mist, and the sun, which looked like an egg yolk, was not dazzling at all.

When the sun was halfway up, the sky turned orange-red, and when it was fully above the ground, it turned orange-yellow. In just a few minutes, the sky changed several colors.

Iceland at sunrise is like a fairyland. Ye Lan said she was very satisfied to see such a beautiful sight.

"Let's go tell Senior Sang Yu that we'll search around the lake area first," Ye Lan said, standing up. After watching the sunrise, it was time to get down to business.

Ye Lan and the others weren't seriously injured. After taking the healing pills and recovering from the meditation, their injuries were basically healed. However, others were more seriously injured and were still healing. So, they didn't plan to go anywhere else today. Instead, they let the others rest while they searched the surrounding area on their own, since they were relying on Xiao Bai to help them find it anyway.

Senior Sang Yu, who was leading the charge, was naturally injured, and quite seriously so. Since Jiang Ning and the others weren't going far, there was no need for him to follow them constantly. After exchanging greetings, the four of them went out to find things on their own, and Su Ye was taken along by them.

After leaving the ship, Xiaobai led the way. On Xinghu Island, it explored more carefully and ran more slowly, so after half a day, they had only searched for ten miles. The lake was very wide, and they hadn't even reached half of Xinghu Island yet.

Logically, it shouldn't be this slow, but Xiaobai just discovered a place where the spiritual energy was particularly concentrated, but the land there was covered by snow. Xiaobai quickly called Ye Lan and the others to come and help dig out the snow.

That was where two giant rocks were leaning against each other, one on the left and one on the right, forming a crevice in the middle. The crevice was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, making it look like a place where spiritual plants could grow.

Ye Lan didn't even roll up her sleeves before starting to dig. The snow was soft, and after digging three or five times, Ye Lan felt her hand touch something.

"There really is something!" Ye Lan was overjoyed, and Xiao Bai and Jiang Ning were also very excited. They thought they were really lucky to have found the Immortal Herb in less than a morning.

So he carefully dug down, and Jiang Ning came to help him. When they had dug halfway through the snow, they found that it was a green leaf grass.

Everyone was disappointed. Although the Green Leaf Grass was also a rare spiritual plant, it was far inferior to the Extreme Immortal Grass. The Green Leaf Grass had long, thin green leaves and could be used to make pills that could increase the movement speed of cultivators.

But this green grass seems to be a little different. For example, its leaves are particularly thin and long, and there are white stripes on the leaves.

Something mutated must have something special about it, so Ye Lan dug a little deeper to see what caused the mutation. Because he was afraid of hurting the green grass, Ye Lan's movements were relatively gentle. Jiang Ning continued to help him dig, and the two of them put their heads together as they dug through the snow.

As they dug down to the ground, they uncovered the entire green grass plant. That's when they noticed something different: what they touched was hard, and the texture was different from snow.

Ye Lan gently swept the snow aside and then saw that it was actually a lot of small, round crystals lying underneath.

These crystals are transparent and the color of ice. Although they are only the size of a thumb, everyone can feel that they contain extremely rich spiritual energy.

A single crystal is equivalent to the spiritual energy contained in many high-grade spirit stones; it's probably what caused this green leaf grass to mutate.

Ye Lan dug out all the crystals and distributed them equally to everyone. He also dug up the Green Leaf Grass. Under the influence of the crystal, he felt that the grade of the Green Leaf Grass had improved. He put the dug-up Green Leaf Grass into his spatial storage, planning to use it for alchemy after leaving Iceland.

They buried the snow back in its original place, and Ye Lan even smoothed out the marks they had made with her hands. After doing all this, they continued on their way.

Because of their pickiness along the way, they were moving so slowly. By nightfall, they had only covered half the distance along the lake, but they had not found any trace of the Immortal Herb.

When they reached a place far away from the ship, Jiang Ning and the others pulled Su Ye to a secluded spot. After confirming that no one was following them, Jiang Ning set up a barrier, and the three of them surrounded the barrier.

Jiang Nan was responsible for keeping watch outside, and Su Ye was completely puzzled by their cautiousness.

Ye Lan looked at Su Ye and asked, "If someone from your Su family encounters danger, does the Su family head have a way to get to the scene and rescue them immediately?"

"Why are you asking this?" Su Ye asked warily, even placing her hands in front of her chest to protect herself.

Ye Lan choked when she saw his movements, and after a moment she calmed down, she said, "You don't need to be so nervous, we won't do anything to you."

"Then why are you all being so secretive?" Su Ye said, pointing to Jiang Nan, who was still keeping watch for them. It was no wonder he was suspicious.

Jiang Ning picked up the conversation: "Just say yes or no."

Su Ye tentatively asked, "How dangerous is it?"

"The kind of danger that could cost them their lives." That's exactly the kind of danger that could cost them their lives. If Sang Yu wanted to attack them, the chances of them successfully resisting would be slim, since they had already witnessed his strength.

Su Ye hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yes, before we came, my grandfather gave us a summoning jade pendant. If we crush the pendant in case of danger, we can summon him directly."

Despite his doubts, Su Ye still told the truth: these people were so close to his cousin, they probably wouldn't harm him.

Ye Lan was relieved to hear this and said, "That's amazing, even our Green Mountain Sect doesn't have that."

They didn't have any; the teleportation talismans they possessed could only teleport people away, not summon them.

Hearing this, Su Ye felt a little proud: "This was given to my grandfather by the people of the God Clan."

Not everyone can recognize the Protoss.

Jiang Ning ignored his arrogance, "Then for the rest of the journey, you must stay close to your cousin, and remember to notify the Su family head immediately if you encounter any danger."

"What other dangers are there?" Su Ye asked, puzzled. He felt that the most dangerous thing about this Iceland was the level 10 demon beasts. Now that they had dealt with the white bear beast, he didn't believe there would be a second level 10 demon beast here.

Ye Lan looked at him and said calmly, "Sang Yu."

"Senior Sang Yu?!" Su Ye exclaimed in surprise, startling Ye Lan into covering his mouth. As expected, Jiang Ning had the foresight to create a barrier after traveling so far; otherwise, Sang Yu would have heard his loud voice.

Su Ye: "Waaaaah!"

Ye Lan: "I'll let go if you don't call me."

"Waaah," Su Ye nodded frantically.

Ye Lan let go of him, wiping her hands with a hint of disgust. Jiang Ning saw this and handed her a handkerchief, which was made for her by her mother.

"What did you just say? How could Senior Sang Yu be in danger?" Su Ye asked in disbelief.

It's hard to imagine that their greatest guarantee in Iceland suddenly became their greatest potential danger.

It's like you bring a master to suppress bandits, only to be told that the master is actually the bandit leader – that's hard to accept.

"Just listen, don't ask so many questions," Ye Lan said without explaining. If she only said it was Xiao Bai's speculation, it would be too absurd, and others might not believe it.

Su Ye's eyes darted around, and seeing that they didn't seem to be joking, he could only change the subject: "Does my brother know?"

"I haven't had a chance to say yet, but we should be safe during this period."

In fact, Ye Lan and Xiao Bai couldn't be sure. Although Sang Yu had a murderous aura, he might not necessarily harm them. After all, he still had to stay in Beizhou. With so many members of the Su family coming this time, if something really happened, Sang Yu wouldn't have a good outcome either.

And most importantly, they can't think of any reason why Sang Yu would hurt them.

This reminder to Su Ye was essential; it's better to be safe than sorry.

As evening approached, the group that had not found the Immortal Herb returned the way they had taken earlier that day. They simply flew back quickly, returning in less than an hour the distance they had traveled in a day.

When they returned, they found Sang Yu standing by the boat waiting for them, and they greeted her as usual.

Having been reminded by them, Su Ye greeted Sang Yu without any change in expression: "Senior Sang Yu."

Sang Yu nodded and asked, "Did you find anything today?"

Jiang Ning replied, "We didn't find what we were looking for, but we did find a few ordinary spiritual plants."

"Take it slow," Sang Yu comforted them.

The next day, when everyone had recovered, they went to look for it together. They searched for two or three days but couldn't find it. Ye Lan was very worried, so she suggested that they go to the bottom of the lake to take a look.

Sang Yu didn't quite agree with their risky approach, saying, "I've been to the bottom of this lake before, but there's nothing special about it."

Although Sang Yu said that, Ye Lan still wanted to go down and give it a try, since she had already come all this way.

But after Ye Lan and Xiao Bai looked around, they found nothing else, so they had to leave Xinghu Island and search the island thoroughly.

Three months passed, and they searched every inch of Iceland, but still couldn't find what they were looking for.

During these three months, Sang Yu got along very well with them, which made Ye Lan's heart waver a little.

This whole ordeal wasn't going to work, so Sang Yu asked them directly, "What exactly are you looking for?"

When they arrived, they only said they were looking for something, but didn't say what it was.

Jiang Ning replied directly, "It's a spiritual plant that can be used to refine Soul Nourishing Pills."

Seeing that they were unwilling to say what it was, Sang Yu stopped asking and continued to follow them, responsible for their safety.

With two months left, Ye Lan had searched all the available resources on Xinghu Island. She wanted to continue searching there and explore the bottom of the lake, so the group returned to their original location.

It wasn't possible for everyone to go down, so Ye Lan, Jiang Nan, and Jiang Ning went down together. Su Bo wanted to go down but was refused; they wanted him to stay and take care of Nangong Yue and Su Ye.

Sang Yu went down with the three of them. It was indeed very cold after they got into the lake. They had set up a barrier before they came down to prevent themselves from getting frostbite.

The lake water was very clear. Although it was connected to the sea, not a single fish could be seen. When Ye Lan first came down, she looked up and saw sunlight shining through the lake water.

They sank to a very deep part of the lake. When they were about to give up, a white light suddenly appeared, and everything in front of them was blindingly white. Ye Lan closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were in a place without water.
