Chapter 1156: Arriving at Celestial Flower Valley
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jameson and Maddison stood frozen in place, their faces showing an indescribable shock upon hearing these words.
Because they never expected that even five hundred million dollars wouldn’t be able to impress the people of the Celestial Flower Valley.
And as for the money they had in their hands, it was even more insignificant.
Connor turned his head and glanced at Temira, noticing an unusually triumphant expression on her face.
After all, those people in the Celestial Flower Valley probably lived their whole lives there, rarely interacting with the outside world.
So money was probably the least important thing to them, and naturally, they weren’t interested in such things.
...
Jameson looked at Gordan’s position and felt a myriad of emotions.
He silently congratulated himself in his heart, grateful that he had asked in advance; otherwise, it would have been troublesome to enter rashly.
“So, Gordan, what should I bring in to make things easier?” Jameson asked.
Upon hearing his words, Gordan’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, followed by a hesitant expression.
Jameson understood what Gordan meant, but he didn’t dare to offend him at the moment, so he quickly took out some cash and handed it to Gordan again.
When Gordan saw the cash, his smile seemed even brighter.
He quickly smiled and said, “You’ve come to the right person this time. Based on my many years of experience in guiding, the people in the Celestial Flower Valley are indeed uninterested in money, but they are very interested in antique medicinal herbs and similar things. If you can find these items, they should accept them, and your chances of obtaining the medicine will also greatly increase…”
“Antique medicinal herbs?” Jameson’s eyes flashed with surprise upon hearing this, and he quickly turned to Connor and said, “Connor, can we wait here for another day? I’ll have my family send over some precious antique calligraphy or jade objects. I’ll also give you some…”
Connor’s eyes showed a hint of helplessness upon hearing Jameson’s words. After all, he didn’t want to waste time now.
But when he saw Jameson’s sincere expression, he couldn’t bear to refuse either.
So he nodded and said, “Alright, let’s stay for another day. I don’t need antique calligraphy or anything, so you don’t have to prepare it for me.”
“It’s alright, we have plenty of antiques at home!” Jameson replied with a smile, then took out his phone and made a call.
Temira helplessly glanced at Jameson and silently made up her mind to help him find the antidote.
He was quite efficient, and the next day, a large number of antique calligraphy, paintings, and medicinal jade objects were sent over by helicopter.
Under Gordan’s guidance, Jameson selected some rare antiques to bring along, and finally, they set off towards the Celestial Flower Valley.
The mountains near Quay City were very complex, and there were often fierce beasts in the area.
If it weren’t for Gordan’s guidance, it would probably be difficult to find the exact location of the Celestial Flower Valley and it would be easy to get lost inside.
However, Jameson had many bodyguards, all of whom were former special forces and familiar with outdoor conditions.
So with the guidance of the bodyguards and Gordan, they made the journey much easier.
“Aren’t you scared walking this kind of path as a girl?” Connor turned his head and glanced at Temira, asking softly.
“I know a shortcut, and it’s very convenient. It could lead me directly to the Celestial Flower Valley. But now there are outsiders, so I can’t go…”
Temira replied lightly to Connor.
“So, that’s how it is!”
Connor nodded gently, not saying much.
“I can’t walk anymore. Let’s take a rest!”
At that moment, Maddison suddenly spoke out.
“Hold on a little longer. We can rest when it’s time to eat…”
This was already the third time Maddison said she wanted to rest, and Jameson expressed some dissatisfaction.
“No, I really can’t walk anymore…”
While speaking, she sat down on the ground, then reached out and rubbed her knee, pouting and saying, “What kind of place is this? Why is it so difficult to walk?”
Connor glanced down at Maddison’s high heels, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
He knew they were going on a mountain trail, yet Maddison still wore high heels. It was strange to expect an easy walk.
After a few minutes, she had rested enough and finally got up to continue walking ahead.
At the beginning, everyone took turns supporting her, but unfortunately, they were all ordinary people, and the mountain trail was indeed very difficult to traverse.
So, after a while, everyone’s strength began to waver.
The Celestial Flower Valley, which could have been reached in a day, ended up taking two days and two nights because of Maddison.
“Gentlemen, the entrance to the Celestial Flower Valley is just ahead, but we can’t go in yet. We have to see what the people inside think. If the gatekeeper is in a good mood, they will let us in, but if they’re not, we might not be able to enter!”
Gordan pointed at the cave in front of him and whispered to the group.
“What if we can’t get in?”
Jameson asked, seemingly worried.
“If we can’t get in, we’ll have to wait here until the people in the Celestial Flower Valley are in a better mood and let us in!”
Gordan said with a hint of helplessness.
“Okay!”
After hearing Gordan’s words, Jameson nodded helplessly and walked ahead.
Connor and the others followed closely behind Jameson.
After a while, they finally passed through the cave.
Once out of the cave, Connor noticed that it suddenly opened up ahead, revealing a huge ancient city in front of them.
It was at this moment that Connor finally understood that the so-called Celestial Flower Valley was just a city.
Moreover, this city was enormous, capable of accommodating tens of thousands of people.
“Is this your Celestial Flower Valley?”
Connor turned his head and glanced at Temira, softly asking her.
“This place can’t be considered the true Celestial Flower Valley. The true Celestial Flower Valley is further inside. Originally, we used to live in the valley, and the medicinal herbs were also grown there. But later, as more and more people came to the Celestial Flower Valley, the valley couldn’t accommodate so many people anymore, and it would also absorb the spiritual energy of the medicinal herbs. So, the valley master built this city, and now we all live inside this city…”
Temira explained as she looked at Connor.
“I see!”
Connor nodded and didn’t say much.
What do you think?
