Ye Jiushang stood in the bamboo forest. With a wave of his hand, the bamboos magically moved and formed various formations neatly, revealing a flat stone path. All kinds of strange flowers and herbs were planted on its sides.
“Wow… Why can these bamboos move?” Xue Fanxin was shocked. She felt that every bamboo seemed to be alive. When the wind blew, the green bamboo leaves slowly swayed, as if they were greeting someone. They looked cute.
The spiritual energy in the bamboo forest was extremely rich. It was an excellent place to cultivate.
“This bamboo forest is planted with the Spirit Gathering Formation as the foundation and the psychedelic array as the support. It’s accompanied by a killing array, the Heavenly South Dipper Star Formation, and the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation. There are also some mechanisms and traps here. Even if all 50,000 Imperial Guards of Imperial City come, they can only die.”
“That’s awesome!”
With a bunch of array formations and traps, who could invade this place?
“Ah Jiu, why did you create such a powerful bamboo forest in your residence?” Xue Fanxin did not dare to step lightly. The thought of those messy array formations made her hair stand on end.
Although she was not familiar with array formations, she knew very well how powerful they were. Furthermore, there were a bunch of them.
“For peace and quiet,” Ye Jiushang said. Then, he pulled Xue Fanxin’s hand and led her into the bamboo forest. “Come, I’ll take you in. I’ll teach you how to control this bamboo forest. It’s inside the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams formation. There are a total of eight entrances, and in the middle is the courtyard you will live in. Only one entrance is safe every time. If you activate the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation, any one of the entrances will be a dead end.”
Ye Jiushang led Xue Fanxin into the bamboo forest leisurely. His steps were slow, and when necessary, he would stop and explain everything to her in detail. He also taught her how to control this forest and what to pay attention to.
Xue Fanxin absorbed everything. Although she could not understand and control this bamboo forest right away, she could at least enter and leave as she pleased. If she learned for a few more days, controlling this bamboo forest would not be difficult.
Such a mysterious bamboo forest was indeed a good place!
In the center of the bamboo forest was a beautiful manor that was half man-made and half natural. Countless precious flowers and herbs were planted here. The stone tables and stools in the pavilion were all made of spirit jade. In the pool was a huge black jade crystal that attracted the dew in the bamboo forest.
Every item in the manor was extraordinary. Even the roadbed was paved with precious jade.
“Xin’er, do you like this place?” Ye Jiushang explained the array formations and mechanisms in the bamboo forest. He did not say anything about the manor.
The moment Xue Fanxin stepped into the manor, she was stunned by the exquisiteness and luxury of the place. She felt as if she had walked into a paradise filled with treasures.
“Ah Jiu, how much did you spend on this manor?” Xue Fanxin did not answer the question. She did not say if she liked this manor or not, but she asked about its value.
Using warm jade to pave the way was really a waste. That was a priceless thing. A palm’s worth could be sold for a sky-high price.
The entire manor’s roads were paved with warm jade. How much warm jade would that take!
Xue Fanxin’s heart ached at the thought. She wished she could dig it all up and sell it for money.
