"Zariah, it seems that you have gained quite a lot." Gregory's voice sounded, and a group of them walked over slowly.
"This... you actually went hunting for Heavenly Spiritual Herbs, and you caught so many." When Gregory and others saw the Heavenly Spiritual Herb in Zariah's arms, they were equally shocked.
The value of one Heavenly Spiritual Herb was equivalent to twenty Earth Spiritual Herbs, and the thirteen Heavenly Spiritual Herbs in Zariah's arms were already more precious than the entire harvest of Gregory and others.
"No, this is not what we caught, but was given to me by Archie." As Zariah spoke, she stuffed the thirteen Heavenly Spiritual Herbs into her pocket.
When she made this move, almost everyone gulped in envy, especially the two people who had insulted Archie before. They almost wanted to kill themselves with a piece of tofu.
Because the provocation they just provoked Archie was no different than two beggars holding copper coins showing off their wealth to a rich man with a millionaire's wealth. It was extremely ridiculous.
"Zariah, are you saying that Archie gave this to you? Could it be..."
Gregory and others' faces turned pale. They suddenly remembered Archie's full package when they saw Archie earlier.
"Gregory, Zariah, something big is not going well, Archie..."
At this moment, Khloe and others hurried over, and her expression was notably grim.
"Khloe, what's going on? Did Archie bully you?"
After seeing Khloe's dejected look and the injury on Mateo's leg, people from the Christopher Alliance gathered around, thinking that Archie had bullied Khloe and others.
And when Khloe told what happened that day, everyone fell silent.
According to what Khloe said, in order to save her, Archie was besieged by three masters of the Spiritual Martial fifth level. He should had fallen into absolute despair and would have died or been disabled.
But just now, they all clearly saw Archie. Not only was he unscathed, but his face was also full of youthfulness. He didn't look like a wounded person at all.
And what did this mean? This showed that Archie could face three masters of the Spiritual Martial fifth level without losing, or at least he could survive himself.
What kind of strength did Archie have? People simply dared not continue to think about it, because the more they thought about it, the more frightened they became.
"Zariah, are you saying that Archie is okay?" Khloe asked with excitement on her face, also feeling incredible.
"Well, Archie is really fine. We just saw him." Zariah nodded.
"That's great. Archie is fine. This is really great... Woo-hoo..." Extreme joy led to sadness. Khloe threw herself into Zariah's arms and cried,
"Zariah, I was wrong. We were all wrong. Only you are right. Archie is not our enemy. He is the bravest person in my Christopher Family... If it weren't for Archie, this time, ugh..."
Zariah was very pleased with such a scene, which showed that Khloe had really changed her mind towards Archie.
"It seems that we have indeed misjudged Archie." Gregory sighed, with a bit of shame on his face. After learning about Khloe's experience, everyone actually had a new view of Archie.
And just when all the disciples were evacuating from the Spiritual Medicine Mountain, a group of Elder had already arrived at the middle of the Spiritual Medicine Mountain.
At this moment, Gemma Samuel, the head of the Martial Techniques Pavilion and other inner sect Elder were all gathered here, frowning as they looked at the corpses of the three disciples not far away.
However, with their status, they could only watch and had no right to speak.
Because next to the corpse, a man in a white robe was observing carefully. This man was an important figure in the Green Dragon Sect, and even the core Elder had to step back.
The white robe on this person was very special. It was engraved with strange spells and special lines. Moreover, the white robe was very large. It not only covered the person's clothes, but also covered his face, wrapping the whole person tightly.
"After many years, it finally appeared again." Finally, an old voice came from the white robe.
"Elder Gerhardt, what you are talking about...is the Endless Bone Grave Mound?" Gemma stepped forward and asked.
"What else can it be besides the Endless Bone Grave Mound?"
"You inner sect Elder are really derelict in your duties. You only report after the Endless Bone Grave Mound has emerged. Do you know how much you have delayed?"
"They are just a bunch of trash. What use do you have?" However, Gemma's question was met with an angry rebuke from the old man in white robe. Everyone could feel the anger of this big shot.
"Huh!" After scolding her, the old man in white robe waved his sleeves and disappeared without leaving even a trace of breath.
And when he left, everyone was relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief. In front of that person, they really didn't even dare to take a breath, and not everyone dared to step forward to ask questions like Gemma did.
"This old guy has gone too far. This Endless Bone Grave Mound is so ethereal that even he who set up the formation can't notice it. How can we possibly know when it will appear!" Gemma said angrily.
"Little girl, please be quiet. It's not easy for our Green Dragon Sect to invite this person. Let alone us, even the sect leader must be respectful to him. We really can't afford to offend him." Oakley stepped forward to dissuade her. He was deeply afraid that Gemma offended the old man in white robe.
"Hmph, I think it's a lie that he joined our Green Dragon Sect, but that he was spying on the treasures in the Endless Bone Grave Mound is real." Gemma snorted in disapproval.
"Although the Endless Bone Grave Mound is likely to be a treasure, it is just a rumor after all. Now, anyone who steps into it will be killed, but it is an undeniable fact."
"The Endless Bone Grave Mound has been regarded as a dead end, and people have been panicking for a long time. If Elder Gerhardt can really crack the Endless Bone Grave Mound, so what if the treasure is given to him."
"I'm afraid he doesn't have that ability." Gemma curled her lips.
"Just say less, girl." Facing the stubborn Gemma, Oakley seemed quite helpless, "By the way, did the Wing Alliance invite that boy?"
"Hey, that guy is really a troublemaker. I heard from Margot that he rejected the invitation from the Wing Alliance." Gemma sighed when Archie was mentioned.
"Oh?" Oakley was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief, "This boy is really interesting."
When Archie returned to the mansion, the first thing he did was to take a comfortable bath. However, as soon as he took off his clothes and before entering the bath, Archie's face changed drastically.
"This...this is..."
Looking at his chest, Archie's eyes flickered and his expression was notably grim.
Because a strange pattern appeared on his chest. The reason why it was strange was because this pattern was composed of countless spells.
Every spell seemed to be alive, swimming slowly in Archie's skin, extremely penetrating.
Archie rubbed his hand hard on his chest several times, trying to erase the strange pattern. However, the pattern seemed to grow on his skin and could not be removed at all.
Seeing those densely packed strange spells swimming back and forth in his skin, Archie felt extremely melancholy, but he was helpless.
"It seems that I haven't gotten rid of the curse of the Endless Bone Grave Mound yet."
Suddenly, Archie smiled with relief. He knew that this must be the Endless Bone Grave Mound, a souvenir left to him. Regardless of whether this thing was a blessing or a curse, at this moment, he had no control over it and could only leave it to fate.
Since he was unable to change, Archie was too lazy to think about it. He simply pretended that nothing had happened, jumped into the bath, and enjoyed his current life.
