Chapter 73 First Meeting with Jiang Nannan
The next morning, Lin Feng said goodbye to Wang Dong and hurriedly went out to deliver the immortal herb.
Lin Feng currently possesses five Grade 9 Dragon Fungus plants.
Although this dragon fungus cannot regenerate severed limbs, it is extremely effective in sustenance and stabilizing severe injuries, making it an excellent healing remedy. Usually, people only use the leaves, but Lin Feng decided to take out two whole plants this time and use them entirely on Chen Zifeng and Gongyang Mo.
He had a good relationship with these two people, and they were kind and honest, so it was worth it for him to use these two doses of life-saving medicine.
Chen Zifeng lost a leg, but he might be able to get a suitable prosthetic leg using soul-guided device technology in the future.
Although Gongyang Mo was badly injured, with almost no good skin on his chest, stomach, and legs, he was fortunate to still have his hands and feet intact.
As for the most pitiful Xu Sanshi—Lin Feng really didn't know this guy well, and even getting angry when he mentioned him.
Previously in the Soul Battle Zone, he had been tricked out of his Gold Soul Coins by Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei.
Bei Bei, a fourth-grader, is known as the strongest attacker in the outer academy, while Xu Sanshi, a fifth-grader, is known as the strongest defender. The unsuspecting freshmen would never have guessed that these two were actually old acquaintances.
The two of them would work together, often using gimmicks like "fourth-graders challenging fifth-graders" or "the ultimate showdown between the two stars of the foreign language department" to set up fake competitions and cheat freshmen out of their bets.
This time, Xu Sanshi almost completely lost his lower body, and he will likely be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, losing even the most basic abilities of a man.
Lin Feng felt no sympathy; he only felt that it was his own greed for credit that led to this.
I've heard that Xu Sanshi's sect has considerable influence, so they shouldn't lack this ninth-grade dragon mushroom. I won't send it.
After delivering the Grade Nine Dragon Fungus to Chen Zifeng and Gongyang Mo, Lin Feng turned around and went to the fifth-grade classroom area. He was there to find Jiang Nannan.
This senior, who is known as the most beautiful girl in the School of Foreign Languages, comes from an ordinary family, but she is kind and has a good reputation and many fans in the school.
Lin Feng had been busy and hadn't had a chance to see her. He wasn't usually a gossip, but he had heard a lot of rumors from Tang Ya and knew that Xu Sanshi had been pursuing Jiang Nannan like a persistent leech for a long time, but always ended up getting rejected.
Strangely, Jiang Nannan seemed uninterested in the outstanding male students who pursued her at the academy. She was quite polite to them, but she felt a visceral aversion to Xu Sanshi.
Lin Feng wondered to himself, "Could it be that Xu Sanshi, that old bastard, did something disgusting to them in the past?"
When Lin Feng reached fifth grade, he first approached Tang Ya, who had just entered fifth grade, and asked her to help him contact Jiang Nannan.
Not long after, a figure walked over from the other end of the corridor.
The girl appeared to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, with a slender and well-proportioned figure. Her long, wavy golden hair cascaded down her back, and her skin was as white as snow. Most striking were her eyes, clear as a mountain spring, exuding a refined and elegant air with every glance.
Lin Feng was slightly taken aback. Before this, the most beautiful woman he had ever seen was Ma Xiaotao, whose martial soul had evolved into a fire phoenix. But this girl in purple before him was in no way inferior in appearance, and even possessed a gentle and quiet temperament that Ma Xiaotao lacked. However, the lingering sorrow between her brows made her appear fragile in beauty.
With such breathtaking beauty, the title of the most beautiful woman in the outer courtyard is truly well-deserved.
"Junior Brother Lin Feng, is there something you need from me?" Jiang Nannan's voice was soft and distant.
"Senior, it's about the Soul Fighting Tournament," Lin Feng said, glancing at the people around them. "It's not convenient to talk here, let's find another place."
Jiang Nannan nodded. She was a little curious. This second-year junior was actually a regular member of this year's Soul Fighting Tournament, while she, a fifth-year student, was only a member of the reserve team.
She didn't ask any more questions and quietly followed Lin Feng. The two arrived at a secluded corridor behind the teaching building.
After stopping, Lin Feng looked at her and said bluntly, "Senior, I come from a humble background, just like you. I understand the difficulties of not having a background in this academy."
He spoke sincerely, continuing, "You know Tang Ya too. She and I are both regular team members, both Soul Kings—"
"You're actually a Soul King?! Aren't you just a second-year student?!" Jiang Nannan was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but interrupt.
"Yes, that's why I came to find you. Tang Ya and I went to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and gathered some immortal herbs. After absorbing them, we were able to advance to the Soul King level by sheer luck. I came this time to give you an immortal herb."
"Immortal herb? I appreciate your kindness—" Jiang Nannan instinctively tried to politely decline.
Lin Feng seemed to sense her worry, smiled slightly, and with a flick of his wrist, something appeared in his palm.
It was a pure white flower, its stems and leaves like jade, its petals as thin as gauze. Lying there quietly, it exuded a refreshing and pleasant fragrance, making the surrounding air seem a bit fresher.
"This is a 50,000-year-old Narcissus Jade Bone and Muscle," Lin Feng explained, handing the herb to her. "Its medicinal properties are mild, primarily nourishing the meridians, strengthening muscles and bones, and opening up the seven or eight meridians. It's a perfect match for your Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul. Senior, you might want to consider it further."
Jiang Nannan looked at the radiant fairy herb in front of her, then looked up at Lin Feng's calm gaze.
Having grown accustomed to all sorts of roundabout or straightforward and passionate pursuits and praises, Lin Feng's candor actually touched her.
"Fifty thousand years?!" Jiang Nannan gasped in surprise.
This time, Jiang Nannan was genuinely tempted, after all, it was a magical herb that could potentially raise her soul power to level 50.
If she can advance to the Soul King level at her age, being selected for the Shrek Seven Devils will be no problem at all.
"Junior, just tell me your conditions. As long as it's not about selling your body, I can agree to anything," Jiang Nannan said hesitantly.
Lin Feng was completely confused. This whole "selling one's body" thing was ridiculous. Jiang Nannan probably thought he was someone who forced someone into a transaction.
He quickly explained, "Senior, please don't misunderstand, I'm not that kind of person. Just think of it as an investment."
"Yes, I believe you." After saying that, Jiang Nannan reached out her fair hand and took the "Narcissus Jade Bone".
Without hesitation, she found a clean place, sat cross-legged, and took the herb.
As the medicine took effect, a cool and refreshing current instantly flowed through her limbs and bones. From her fingertips, a warm, jade-like halo quickly spread across her exposed skin, making her appear like a meticulously sculpted white jade statue, adding to her ethereal beauty.
Her original level 41 soul power has now reached level 50!
After a long while, Jiang Nannan slowly opened her eyes. A flash of jade-colored light appeared in her eyes, and her aura had changed drastically, becoming much more calm and composed.
As she felt the surging soul power within her body and her meridians becoming more resilient and flexible, a faint yet genuine surprise finally appeared on her face.
"Congratulations, senior." Lin Feng congratulated her with a smile.
Jiang Nannan's eyes were clear and earnest as she said gratefully, "I have no way to repay you—I only hope that I can help you in the future."
Lin Feng smiled and pondered, "Then I'll have to go back and think carefully about what kind of help I need from my senior in the future."
After saying goodbye to Jiang Nannan, Lin Feng turned and walked towards the inner courtyard.
He didn't plan to go find Bei Bei, who was in the same reserve team as Jiang Nannan. He had only recently learned that Bei Bei was actually Mu En's great-great-grandson.
Moon is the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, the true number one figure at Shrek Academy. His great-grandson surely doesn't lack for such rare herbs and opportunities, so I won't offer them to him.
