“Swallow Immortal, has the overseas search for the superior seeds gone smoothly?”
“It's mostly the young ones searching outside...” The old Swallow Immortal showed a look of shame. “Fortunately, most of them are clever. Although the overseas demons are wild and unruly, they haven't caused much trouble for the swallows. Most of the young ones haven't been injured. After three years of hard work, we’ve found a few superior seeds, especially those that you had mentioned.”
“Thank you for the hard work of your juniors.”
“Only a few superior seeds were brought today, and they’re all kept in the palace. Some are still on the way. When they arrive in Changjing, I’ll make sure to bring them for you to inspect.”

“Thanks to your help, the Emperor and the State Preceptor were very polite. They said they would first try planting them in Anqing and gradually promote them.”
“What about the imperial decree?”
“That might have to wait until after the trial planting.”
