Rumble!
Just as the atmosphere was reaching a climax, the entire Water Flower Valley suddenly shook.
Everyone looked up and saw a blinding immortal light shoot into the sky.
An indescribably rich tea fragrance quickly filled the entire valley.
As the fragrance weakened, the immortal light in the sky slowly gathered to form a figure.
She had white hair, but her face was young and beautiful.
She was wearing a grayish-white robe and had the bearing of Daoist Master.
When they saw her appear, Si Jinrou and everyone was shocked.
“Ancestor!”
This white-haired woman was the founder of the Water Flower Valley, Qin Miao, who was called “Dew Fairy”!
No one expected Qin Miao to still be alive!
Apart from her white hair, her appearance was identical to the one in the sect’s ancient records.
Si Jinrou hurriedly went forward and knelt down.
“Water Flower Valleys sixth generation Sect Master, Si Jinrou, greets the Ancestral Master!”
Qin Miao looked down at her for a moment and revealed a satisfied expression.
“I once set a rule that on the day of the Ancestral Worship Ceremony, if the Sect Master can prove that her tea refining skills have reached a new realm, she can obtain the corresponding cultivation technique in the Scripture Pavilion.”
“I smelled the fragrance of the Clear Moon Blooming Cereus Tea in the secret room, so I came out to see you!”
Hearing the meaning in Qin Miao’s words, Si Jinrou couldn’t help but shake her head and smile.
“Ancestor, you’ve misunderstood!”
“I’m temporarily unable to refine the Clear Moon Blooming Cereus Tea. I just asked the North Mystic Heaven’s Consort to take action, so I can observe and learn!”
“North Mystic Heaven’s Consort?”
Qin Miao shifted her gaze and saw Lin Xuan sitting in the VIP seat.
Instantly, her gaze trembled slightly.
What a handsome young man!
He was so young, but he was able to refine the Clear Moon Blooming Cereus Tea. This meant that he was already a true tea refining grandmaster!
At the thought of this, Qin Miao hurriedly put away her airs and quickly came to Lin Xuan to bow.
“Water Flower Valley’s Ancestral Master, Qin Miao, greets the North Mystic Heaven’s Consort!”
Although she was the ancestor of the Water Flower Valley, so her attainments in tea refining were at the grandmaster level, not only was Lin Xuan’s attainments in tea refining on par with hers, but he was also the husband of the empress. His status was much higher than hers.
Therefore, even in front of a hundred thousand disciples, she still bowed respectfully to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan also returned the greeting politely. “Greetings, Senior!”
Qin Miao nodded slightly and her evaluation of Lin Xuan instantly became much higher.
Lin Xuan’s aura and bearing were unique.
Even though Qin Miao was tens of thousands of years older than him, she was still filled with awe towards him.
“Ah Miao!”
Just as Qin Miao stood up, a deep man’s voice suddenly sounded from the distant sky.
Qin Miao’s body couldn’t help but tremble slightly, as if she was frightened by this voice.
Lin Xuan and the others looked up.
A light flew over from outside the Water Flower Valley and landed on the ground before turning into a white-haired man.
Like Qin Miao, although he had a head of white hair, he looked young.
Qin Miao’s expression instantly turned cold, and she frowned.
“Don’t call me that! I have nothing to do with you!”
The white-haired man was called Feng Shengzhou. He revealed a pained expression.
“Miao, after so many years, I’ve been guarding outside the valley and waiting for you to come out.”
“Could it be that you still refuse to change your mind even now?”
Qin Miao said coldly, “Then have you changed your mind now?”
Feng Shengzhou was stunned. “I…”
Qin Miaoyu waved her hand and took out a crystalline sword.
“Since neither of us has changed, let’s use our strength to speak and prove who’s right and who’s wrong!”
Swish!
Before Feng Shengzhou could reply, she stabbed out.
Feng Shengzhou was shocked by her sword move. After he came back to his senses, he hurriedly took out his sword to block while saying, “Ah Miao, let’s talk nicely!”
Qin Miao’s tone was filled with disdain. “We’re not on the same path, so why waste our breath?!”
The two of them immediately exchanged sword moves on the square and the battle became more and more intense.
Seeing this, all the disciples of the Water Flower Valley were stunned.
Only Si Jinrou shook her head and sighed.
Lan Xin asked, “Master, that white-haired senior seems to have a deep relationship with our ancestor. Who is he?”
Si Jinrou smiled bitterly. “He’s the former lover of the Ancestral Master, the old senior with the title of ‘Cultivation Grandmaster’!”
A cultivation grandmaster?
Hearing this, Lan Xin couldn’t help but reveal a look of awe.
In tea refining legend of the Immeasurable Heaven’s, other than the grandmaster, “Dew Fairy” Qin Miao, there was another very powerful grandmaster who cultivated tea.
He was the cultivation grandmaster in front of them, Feng Shengzhou!
Dao Cultivation meant that tea refining could teach people about the law and discipline of rite as well as moral cultivation by means of drinking tea.
Over 80,000 years ago, Feng Shengzhou was a tea refining genius who was on par with Qin Miao!
Unexpectedly, these two were old lovers.
Now, they seemed extranged and it was extremely difficult to resolve.
“Then why did they become like this? The moment they met, they used swords?” Lan Xin continued to ask.
Si Jinru said, “That’s because their ideals in tea refining are opposite.”
“According to the records of the sect’s secret scroll, before the sect was established, the ancestor and Senior Feng were originally prepared to join forces to establish the sect, but just as they were formulating the concept of the sect’s development, they developed an irreconcilable conflict.”
“In Ancestral Master’s opinion, the important thing in tea cultivation is to cultivate the body and mind and increase your internal cultivation level, but you should ignore external martial arts techniques. However, Senior Feng thinks that the ultimate purpose of tea cultivation is to increase your martial arts combat power.”
“So the two of them argued until they fought and became lifelong enemies!”
Lan Xin nodded. “I see.”
On the path of cultivation, the most terrifying thing was different ideals.
In the world, it was unknown how many sects treated their ideals as the right path and treated ideals different from theirs as evil.
It seemed that Ancestral Master Qin Miao and Feng Shengzhou had also fallen prey to this ideal of righteousness and evil, causing an irreconcilable conflict between the two of them.
Hearing Lan Xin and Si Jinrou’s conversation, the four babies in Lin Xuan’s arms fell into deep thought.
Then, Xuan Zhu shook her head and said, “Just because Grandpa and Grandma have different thoughts, they fought their entire lives. It’s really not worth it!”
Xuan Xi nodded. “That’s right. I remember Mother saying that we have to be broad-minded and learn to accept different things.”
Xuan Han agreed. “It’s like how we accepted Xuan You’s demon beast.”
Xuan You had a proud expression. “That’s because my demon beasts is fun!”
Lin Xuan rubbed the little girls’ heads dotingly. “Babies, you’re right. A person has to know how to seek common ground and avoid differences in order to improve.”
Since his daughters had mentioned this, he naturally had to say a few more words and teach them some principles.
Seeking common ground?
When they heard Lin Xuan’s words, Si Jinrou and Lan Xin’s eyes lit up.
Si Jinrou hurriedly turned around and bowed. “Did you find a way to resolve the conflict between Ancestral Master and Senior Feng?”
Lin Xuan smiled calmly. “It’s very simple to resolve their conflict. It’s just a matter of a few words.”
