Regal Guard of Dragon
Chapter 269 One-Thousand-Year-Old Polygonum Multiflora

According to Jonny Huang's record, the ancient pond at the bottom ofSpring Hill would only appear when the spring water flowed back bythe end of each month.

Therefore, the time for picking ice lotus was set to three days later.During these three days, Finn Chen wrote out several medical materialsneeded to refine the Ice Lotus and asked Thad Gu and Lowe Han'speople to buy them.

There were three Ice lotus plants in total, Finn planned to give one toJonny, one to Maura Shawn, and the last one reserved for emergencies.Finn wanted to give it to Maura to achieve the early stage of theObvious Period and become a Martial Artist.

So that Maura could protect herself if something unexpected were tohappen to Finn.

The next day, Thad's efforts in buying the materials did not gosmoothly.

The people he sent informed that some of the materials had beenbought out by someone, especially ginseng and Polygonum multiflora.According to the medicine shop owners, someone had bought out allthe materials in the whole City C.

That afternoon, Thad got another message.

Someone had beaten the people he sent out.

What's more, instead of leaving after the beating, that person let Thad'speople call for backup.

Thad felt helpless and decided to call Finn

"Master Finn, something came up. The boss of JZ Elixir Hall wanted tosell to us their one-thousand-year-old Polygonum Multiflora. Still, whenI send someone to buy it, the boss said that someone had paid twiceour price and bought the Polygonum Multiflora.”

"And that person had some background. Someone whom the bosscan't afford to offend.”

"I told Galen to stay at JZ Elixir Hall to replace out that person's details.”"But after discovering that Galen wanted to take the PolygonumMultiflora, that person broke Galen's leg and told him to call morepeople.”

"Then, I sent dozens of my people, but that person managed to breaktheir arms or legs. He is still guarding JZ Elixir Hall now."

Thad sounded upset.

"Is that so?" Finn raised his eyebrows.

"Master Finn, they seem to have a Martial Artist backing them up." Thadcontinued: "They are most likely the one who bought out all thematerials.”

Thad's subordinate, Howard, was a Martial Artist at the early stage ofthe Obvious period. Still, he got himself wounded a few days ago, sothere was no way to take down such a martial artist.

"I will go there.” Finn frowned. After all, Thad's people encountered thisbecause they were purchasing materials for Finn.

Besides, the Polygonum Multiflora was necessary to refine the Ice Lotus.Finn only wanted to go with Thad there, but Chen's four brothers andsisters were eager to follow after hearing about the news.

Just like that, a group of people came to JZ Elixir Hall.

Finn saw dozens of Thad's subordinates upon getting off the car. Theywere lying on the ground with a bleeding nose and swollen face, allgroaning with pain

A middle-aged man wearing a flowery shirt was stepping on GalenZhou, the leader.

"Let him go!"

Thad shouted angrily, Galen was his confidant, but that person haddisrespected him deeply.

“Let him go?" The man with a flowery shirt smiled playfully and kickedGalen away.

Galen slid seven or eight meters on the ground before arriving in frontof Thad.

Thad hurriedly helped Galen.

"Cough!"

Galen vomited blood wildly, and a large part of his chest had sunk in.The man with a flowery shirt had broken some of his ribs.

Looking at Galen's miserable appearance, Thad couldn't help but clenchhis teeth.

He was about to be blown up from anger.

"Don't you want me to let him go?” The man in the flowery shirtlaughed.

At that moment, Chen's four brothers and sisters got out of the othercar.

Wen Chen immediately recognized the man in the flower shirt."Senior?" Wen blurted out in surprise, for he didn't expect to seeHowell Huang here.

The man in the flower shirt was also surprised: "Junior?"

"Senior, why are you here?"

Wen had just robbed Lowe's vault the day before yesterday, and todayHowell had beaten Thad's subordinates.

Could Howell be the one who disputed against Finn's people?

"I came here to buy the Polygonum Multiflora for Miss Huo, but I raninto these insolent kids, so I gave them a lesson.” Howell carefreelyuttered.

After saying that, Howell glanced at Wen and added, "Junior, don't tellme that these are your people.”

Wen seemed disturbed: "Senior, they are not my people, but they aremy friend's subordinates...”

"Friends?" Howell interrupted Wen: "Junior, are you saying that thispeasant is your friend?"

"Is there a problem with that?" Wen frowned.

"No."

Howell shook his head: "Who you want to be friends with is yourbusiness.”

"But I am disappointed with you. I didn't expect that you wouldbefriend peasants after getting out of The Faction of People. Gee."Howell sighed. His tone was full of mockery.

Howell was a Martial Artist. His position in The Faction of People wasnot low, so in his heart, he had always looked down upon ordinarypeople.

Thad clenched his fist in anger, but he understood that the person infront of him was no simple man.

From Wen's reaction, it seemed that the man in front of him was aMartial Artist and a senior member of The Faction of People fromCountry C.

"Senior, please be polite to my friend.” Wen felt mildly annoyed."Polite?" Howell glanced at Thad and sneered, "Does he deserve it?""You..." Thad murmured angrily.

"Well, junior, I won't talk nonsense with you. Now, since you are friendswith these losers, I will respect you and let them go. Tell them to getlost." Howell waved his hand to Thad as if he was a fly.
