3180 Acknowledge Me As Your Master
“It truly is an Immortal Wine.” She looked at him with surprise in her eyes. “Senior, this place is isolated from the rest of the world, how can there be Immortal Wine here?”
What’s more, the elderly man drank one cup after another without showing any signs of drunkenness. Did he take the alcohol-relieving pill beforehand?
The old man squinted his eyes as he drank the wine, leaned against the tree, looked at her, and said, “I made this Immortal Wine. I’ve just not drunk in a long time, and I haven’t made wine in a long time. I hid the last jar here, and I didn’t think to dig it up and drink it until today.”
“Then, the Immortal Wine out there…”
“Of course, someone copied it. The similarity is only thirty per cent, but you all believe it is an Immortal Wine.” The elderly man snorted as he drank from the cup of wine. When he noticed Feng Jiu staring at him, he smiled mischievously, “Little girl, are you interested?”
Feng Jiu turned to face him. “My grandfather enjoys drinking wine. I can make some wine on my own, but not Immortal Wine.”
“It’s easy! You acknowledge me as your Master, and I’ll teach you. ”
His eyes glowed as he looked at her with anticipation. “I just saw how you roast chicken, and that flame isn’t just an ordinary flame. Since you have the celestial fire, you’d better be an alchemist. You must know that medicinal pills refined by a celestial fire alchemist are incomparable to those refined by ordinary alchemists.”
Feng Jiu shook her head. “No, your place is too evil.”
The elderly man was astonished: “Evil? How is that possible? We are not the land of those evil and devilry cultivators.”
“The two people who spoke to me earlier said that the people who enter this place either drank world-forgetting water or were used as flower fertiliser. When I came in, the two men also told me that they would send me to serve your Pill King. I calculated that Pill King is an old monster of at least 900 years old, yet he is still interested in a young woman like me.”
“Pfft! Cough, cough.”
The old man spurted out the wine after hearing her words. He coughed loudly several times, patted his chest, and stared straight at her before asking, “What nonsense are you spouting, little girl? What kind of a man is Pill King?”
“Otherwise?” Feng Jiu arched her eyebrows.
“He is not the sort of person you describe. It’s possible that those two people misunderstood Pill King. Pill King is only interested in alchemy. How can he get interested in a woman? This is completely absurd.” He looked gloomy as if he was angry.
Feng Jiu chuckled. “You are not the Pill King. How do you know Pill King does not have this thought?”
“How could I not know? Since Pill King came here to isolate himself from the rest of the world, I’ve been by his side. There are no children or female companions in his life. How could he be interested in you, a little girl, as you claimed?” He let out a snort. “Pill King is currently in seclusion. Wait until he’s out, and I’ll take you to him so you can ask him yourself.”
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed slightly as she heard this. She stopped speaking and continued drinking the wine.
“What are your thoughts, little girl? Why don’t you consider me your master? Apart from Pill King, I am the best alchemist in this Pill King Valley. If you have me as your master, I can teach you how to refine medicinal pills. If you want something like a Longevity Pill or medicinal pills to boost cultivation strength, those are very easy for me.”
“Are you the Peak of the Celestial Rank now?” he asked, staring at her with burning eyes. “It is remarkable that you have accomplished so much at your age, but as your Master, I can increase your strength even further.”
