Whew!
Kendall exhaled lightly. She nodded. "Alright, we'll do that."
Skylar refused to talk. All they could do was look for other ways.
"Don't worry, Sect Master. I'll return with skilled doctors as soon as possible."
Kendall had given the green light, and the member could hardly contain his glee. He acknowledged the command and left the great hall with the others hurriedly.
……
At the Hundred Flower Valley...
The Hundred Flower Valley was located north of the Great East. It was full of mountains and forests, and the population there was dense. There was a valley amidst the forests and mountains full of curious plants. That was how it had gotten its name.
The Hundred Flower Valley was a beautiful place full of rare herbs and plants, which also meant that it was crawling with poisonous insects and fearsome beasts. Many people had visited it in the past hundreds and thousands of years, but few had been able to leave it successfully. They would either be poisoned by venomous insects, or mauled by monsters.
Half a year ago, the honorable pianist Celine Maine had passed by the place with her follower Queenie Garfield. When she saw the breathtaking valley, she came up with the idea to live there in hiding.
At the time, Celine and Queenie had single-handedly taken out all the insects and beasts in the Hundred Flower Valley. Then, they built an elegant-looking building there.
Since it was located in the Hundred Flower Valley, the building had been named the Hundred Flower Hall.
Since then, Celine and Queenie had been living in the Hundred Flower Valley in secret, closed off from the rest of the world.
Sometime after that, some world wanderers had gone by the Hundred Flower Valley to collect herbs. Sometimes they would fall unconscious from consuming the wrong herbs, and Celine would rescue them. During her time with Darryl, Celine had hung around to watch whenever Darryl studied medicine. Her knowledge in herbology had increased significantly because of that.
Those rescued by Celine had been extremely grateful to her. They would leave the Hundred Flower Valley and talk of their experiences to others. They mentioned a beautiful goddess healer in the Hundred Flower Valley.
Word spread quickly enough, and it was barely half a year before the entire Great East knew about the goddess healer in the Hundred Flower Valley.
At that moment, Celine was sitting cross-legged in a meadow in the Hundred Flower Hall. She was resting and recuperating.
Next to her, Queenie was leaning against the window sill. She was also resting.
"Hello! Is the goddess healer here?"
