Chapter 1136 Earth Treasures Are Ripe

There was a hotel located in a small town outside the Desert Cistanche cultivation base in Beijiang.

Lets wait a little longer. There should be news from home soon.

He Chengling said to the few experts of the Zhu family.

If this place is really a restricted military zone, it will be troublesome.

The few experts of the Zhu family looked at each other solemnly.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

At this critical moment, He Chenglings cell phone suddenly rang.

This is it.

He Chengling grinned and said affirmatively, My father has connections. Trust me.

As he spoke, he immediately took out his phone.

Yes, it was from Elder He.

Dad.

He Chengling picked up the phone and asked urgently, How did it go?

......

The engagement is called off. Come back right now. Dont ever displease Xue again.

His voice came over the phone.

He Chenglings face changed drastically, and he immediately asked in a deep voice, What? What, what happened?

Meanwhile...

The leader of the Zhu family also received a call.

Glancing at those experts, He Chengling hurriedly made a detailed inquiry.

The Zhu family made the decision.

Elder Hes voice came from the phone. The Renyi Group has the backing of the state. Now their intention is obvious: they are competing with us for He Xue. Not to mention us, even the Zhu family cant afford to offend them. I guess the Zhu family must have been under great pressure, so they took the initiative to call off the engagement.

...

He Chengling was shocked by the news.

Renyi Groups powerful backing: the state?

Terrifying!

No wonder its a restricted military zone which does not allow visitors. I see why the Renyi Group could rise in such a short time. Not only has it gained a foothold in the international market, but also has made remarkable achievements.

Now, everything was clear.

With one of the worlds leading states as its top supporter, how could the Renyi Group not achieve huge success?

Thinking of this, He Chengling felt chilled with fear.

Argh, she wont exact a terrible revenge, will she?

He Chengling whispered, his hand covering his mouth.

As long as you dont cause her any more trouble, she wont come after you.

In fact, Elder He was worried about the same thing.

He knew the real threat to the He family was not He Xue, but Fang Qiu, who provided her with such a strong backing. They had taken turns forcing He Xue to get married. If Fang Qiu was not happy about that, the He family would soon be finished.

Now, their only hope of surviving was He Xue.

At least they had to appease her as soon as possible!

They were done talking.

Elder He immediately hung up the phone.

The phone call between the Zhu family members also ended.

Second Master, since the engagement has been called off, lets just take it that this incident has never taken place. Were leaving.

After that, several experts of the Zhu Family immediately walked out of the door and left.

Seeing this, He Chengling had no choice but to return to the capital. He couldnt figure out how the Renyi Group could be so powerful. It saved He Xue without anyone noticing and was backed up by the state. This group was terrifyingly powerful!

...

Do! Do! Do!

In the quadrangle courtyard of the He family located at Lakeside Garden in the capital, Elder He is called He Xue.

h.e.l.lo?

The phone was connected.

h.e.l.lo, Xue?

Elder He asked, Im just trying to see if the number still works. Your phone is still at home. How about I ask someone to send it to you?

No need.

When He Xue heard this, she said coldly, Ive already changed my phone and got a new SIM card. I have a backup of all the phone numbers. Since you like that phone, Ill give it to you and you can deal with it!

Fine, fine, anything you like.

Elder He smiled awkwardly and said, Dont hang up the phone, and please dont misunderstand. I didnt call to talk about the marriage arrangement with you. I want to talk to you. Now that you are working for the Renyi Group, you must seize this opportunity and work hard for our country.

As for the marriage, lets forget about it. From now on, just live at your will. We wont force you to do anything. You can love freely.

He Xue had taken the call in her office at the cultivation base.

His words stunned her. Then she immediately walked into the next room, Fang Qius office, and looked at him with a puzzled face.

Well, I wont bother you anymore. I will tell your Second Uncle not to disturb you. Your engagement with the Zhu family has been called off. Just work harder to serve the country, and win honor for the He family.

After that, he hung up the phone.

This time, He Xue was greatly puzzled!

What on earth was going on?

Putting away her phone, she went straight to Fang Qius desk, stared at Fang Qiu, and asked, Were you behind this?

What?

Fang Qiu, sitting at the desk, asked blankly.

My engagement has been called off.

He Xue said with a frown.

Congratulations, congratulations.

Fang Qiu immediately gave her a fist-and-palm salute with a smile.

Go ahead.

He Xue stared at him and asked, Was it you?

But Ive been sitting right here the whole time!

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, They retreated even before I could make any move... It was not fun at all.

He Xue did not believe it.

However, Fang Qiu didnt admit it at all. Anyway, he had been staying in the cultivation base these days and hadnt even gone out for a while. He Xue couldnt find any evidence.

Nevertheless, no matter how well he hid it, He Xue knew it was Fang Qiu who solved the tricky problem for her.

It was because he was the only one who knew she was engaged, besides the He family and the Zhu family.

In this case, could anyone else other than Fang Qiu help her call off the engagement?

He Xue questioned him incessantly, but Fang Qiu never admitted it.

He Xue didnt ask anymore.

Since he refused to admit it, she didnt want to push him too hard. How could this brat solve this matter so easily and quietly? He is surprisingly powerful!

Oh, this kid is getting more and more mysterious.

While secretly thinking about it, He Xue was finally relieved of the heavy burden in her heart. Almost instantly, she felt utterly relaxed and breathed a long sigh of relief. The corners of her mouth curved up, revealing a rare and pure smile. Fang Qiu saw such a smile only once when they met for the first time.

Seeing this, Fang Qiu also smiled.

He was about to get up and say something...

Beep! Beep! Beep!

The phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.

It was a call from Zhou Xiaotian.

h.e.l.lo?

Fang Qiu answered the phone.

The youngest, bad news. The vine you moved from Africo has grown into a tree! The fruit on it seems to be ripe, so the rabbit is staring longingly at it and cant wait to devour it. Fortunately, the oldest and the third oldest managed to suppress it. But the rabbit is so strong that we could barely contain it any longer. Hurry up and help us.

Zhou Xiaotians exceedingly anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

Fang Qiu had told them to stay away from the fruits on the tree. No one was allowed to touch it, not even the animals.

Therefore, as soon as Zhou Xiaotian discovered that the Three Lives Fruits had ripened, he invited Zhu Benzheng and Sun Hao to guard it together. To their surprise, they saw the Tianshan Rat Hare was about to eat it, so they immediately suppressed it.

Ill be right there.

Hearing that, Fang Qiu quickly hung up the phone and ran to the Three Lives Tree.

He knew about the consequences.

This matter must not be trifled with. Once the Tianshan Rat Hare broke free from their hands, it would eat up all the fruits on the Three Lives Tree.

Fang Qiu, walking and running, reached the Three Lives Tree.

From a distance, Fang Qiu saw that the vine had grown into a one-meter-high Three Lives Tree. Its trunk was made of three vines twisted together, which looked just like a girls three-strand braid.

Perhaps, it was because of the abundant Qi of Heaven and Earth that the Three Lives Trees crown was quite dense. There were cl.u.s.ters of fruit growing on the vines. Just like ordinary fruits, they were hanging from the crown.

Each of them was golden in color and looked particularly enticing.

When the Three Lives Fruits ripened, the Qi of Heaven and Earth around them emitted a much richer fragrance.

Fang Qiu approached the tree.

Then he finally saw that Zhou Xiaotian and the others were kneeling on the ground, their hands pressed hard on the back of Tianshan Rat Hare. Only with their combined strength could they pin it to the ground.

But even so, the Tianshan Rat Hare still kicked its legs wildly with tremendous force. It was about to break free from their hands.

You little guy.

Fang Qiu stepped forward, reached out his right hand, and picked the little fellow up by the scruff of its neck.

Squeak, squeak, squeak...

When Fang Qiu lifted it, the little fellow immediately screeched at him.

Obviously, it was thrilled by the ripening of the Three Lives Fruit and was overwhelmed by an irresistible impulse to eat the fruits.

Stop that noise. Youll have your share!

Fang Qiu shouted.

The Tianshan Rat Hare instantly quieted down.

Seeing this, Zhu Benzheng and the other two were speechless.

It wont take orders from handsome guys.

Zhou Xiaotian said indignantly, Arent we all more good-looking than the youngest?

Zhu Benzheng and Sun Hao nodded in agreement.

However, Fang Qiu didnt hear their conversation at all. Instead, he was staring at the fruits on the Three Lives Tree with sparkling eyes.

He counted more than 20 fruits in total on the tree.

They were all ripe.

Here you are.

Fang Qiu reached out to pick one and put it directly into the little fellows mouth. Then he put it down.

Squeak, squeak, squeak...

The little guy swallowed the Three Lives Fruit in one bite, squeaking loudly while chewing hard.

Meanwhile...

Fang Qiu reached out and picked all the fruit off the tree.

A big harvest this time.

After he picked all the fruits, Fang Qiu laughed.

The youngest, can we eat this fruit?

Sun Hao came up.

Do you want to try?

Fang Qiu turned to look at his three roommates and asked.

Yes.

The three of them nodded in unison.

Okay, Ill give each of you one.

As he spoke, he handed over one to each of them. After they swallowed it, he helped them to absorb all the fruits energy.

Its quite edible.

Zhou Xiaotian ate one and said with a chuckle, But the taste is not so good.

It doesnt taste very good, but I feel stronger after eating it.

Zhu Benzheng immediately expressed his feelings after him.

I feel a little warmth in my stomach. Is this fruit a medicinal herb?

Sun Hao touched his belly and asked.
