Chapter 1009 - 1007, Heart Fluttering
Luo Shu sat down on the chair and opened the book to read.
After reading for a while, Luo Shu closed the book. Although each book mentioned the Holy Tree, it only described it in a few lines, merely stating that the Holy Tree was in Holy Light City and had the ability to strengthen the body and cleanse the spirit. None of the books included any illustrations of the Holy Tree.
The jade slip Lin Jue had given them only mentioned that there were Star Origin Fruits in Shuize Country. None of the cultivators who traveled to Shuize Country to find the Star Origin Fruits had ever returned, so the exact location of the Star Origin Fruit Tree wasn’t documented in the jade slip.
"Did you find anything useful?" Luo Shu asked as she looked at Lu Hanmo.
"No, the content recorded is pretty much the same," Lu Hanmo replied as he finished the last book and closed it.
"It seems we’ll have to investigate on our own," Luo Shu said. Some of the effects attributed to the Holy Tree were also present in the Star Origin Fruit, which made her sixty to seventy percent certain that the tree they were looking for was indeed the Holy Tree.
Leaving the study, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo didn’t return to their rooms but instead strolled around the courtyard.
The back courtyard of the City Lord’s Mansion was spacious. Between each yard, there were artificial hills and lotus ponds. In the lotus ponds swam pitch-black fish that were different from any they had seen before. Moreover, the fish exuded a mysterious power.
The two arrived at the Lake Heart Pavilion in the center of the pond and sat down on the chairs inside.
Shuimu Ye and Mrs. Shui stayed in Shuimu Yan’s courtyard for a while before leaving and heading toward their own courtyard. As they passed by the lotus pond, Shuimu Ye noticed Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo sitting in the Lake Heart Pavilion enjoying the scenery.
