Chapter 874 Joy Falls From Heaven
However, when he saw Xia Ningshuang's enthusiastic and admiring look, the old man in the cloak felt a little weak and his eyes were slightly wandering.
"Oh, wait a minute."
Xing Mu was still the calmest. He stood up and said respectfully to the old man in black robe: "Senior Heyun, please don't blame me for being careless. Uncle Xia went to invite you before, but you always stayed behind closed doors. Now, you are... It’s obviously against common sense to come uninvited.”
As soon as Xing Mu's words came out, everyone in the hall immediately suppressed the ecstasy in their hearts and turned to cast doubtful eyes on the old man in black robe.
The old man in black robe nodded slowly and appreciatively at Xing Mu and said, "Didn't I tell you just now? When Palace Master Xia went to his humble residence, I was studying the refining formula of a new elixir and had no time to meet him."
Xing Mu's eyes were blazing and he said: "But I have always heard that the old gentleman hates the disputes between some families and sects, but why, this time, the old gentleman doesn't hate it anymore?"
Everyone in the hall looked at the old man in black robe and cloak in front of them with doubts. At this time, they were already suspecting that this person was most likely a fake, and he might even be Yanfu or Zhuge. The people from the Xia Mansion came here in disguise. When the time comes, they will cooperate with each other inside and outside, and it will be more convenient to deal with the Xia Mansion.
"Now and then, I, Heyun, am here in Kyoto. Which family should I help? Do I still need a reason?"
The old man in the cloak raised his head slightly, and in an instant, his whole body exuded an air of awe-inspiring and inviolable pride.
This point is very consistent with the weird temperament of Alchemist Heyun. Moreover, with his status, he will be a bit disrespectful to the royal family and other sects and aristocratic families when he visits Kyoto here. , when you meet him, it’s too late to fawn over him, so who will blame him?
Everyone nodded secretly.
"I know that you are suspecting that I am from the Yan Mansion or the Zhuge Mansion, and I came here in disguise. Isn't it easy to prove my identity?"
The old man in the cloak smiled faintly, and immediately shook his broad sleeves, and more than a dozen blue-colored Qingling Pills fell on the table.
What kind of elixir is this?
Looking at the dozen green elixirs on the table, everyone in the hall looked at each other with a mixture of curiosity and enthusiasm.
They had never seen this kind of elixir before, but judging from the smooth surface of these elixirs, the quality was definitely not bad.
"This elixir is called Qing Ling Dan, and it's also a new variety I just developed."
The black-robed old man's eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces and said: "Qingling Pill is a high-level elixir. Its effect is that it can make a person enter an ethereal state. Once a person enters an ethereal state, , whether in battle or during cultivation, it will have very amazing effects. There are 17 Qingling Pills in this batch, including five second-grade pills and 12 third-grade pills. Now, you still doubt me. Identity?"
This batch of Qingling Pills has explained everything!
It is possible to refine such high-grade elixirs, and there are as many as 12 of them with third-grade quality. Looking at the entire Baidan Kingdom, except Master Heyun, who else can have such alchemy skills?
Everyone present's doubts about the cloaked old man's identity have been completely eliminated, replaced by ecstasy and admiration.
"Alchemist Heyun, I never thought that you would actually come to our Xia Mansion. This is just like a dream."
Xia Changqing rubbed his hands excitedly and said with a rather respectful look, "So, did you come here this time to promise to refine the elixir for our Xia Mansion?"
"No."
The old man in the cloak shook his head slightly.
No!
Xia Changqing and everyone else were stunned again, and a look of disappointment could not be suppressed on their faces.
The old man in the cloak continued: "If these Qingling Pills are sold on the market, they will attract crazy looting, and the Xia Mansion can make a considerable profit from them. Of course, this is not the point, the point is Yes, we can attract consumers' attention to Xiafu again, so that Xiafu elixirs can once again attract consumers' attention."
Makes sense!
The eyes of everyone present brightened slightly.
The old man in the cloak paused and continued: "And I will try my best to bring the alchemy skills of the two ladies of the Xia Mansion to a higher level in the shortest possible time. At least, let them be able to compete with the Yan Mansion. And the alchemists newly hired by Zhuge Mansion."
ah……
Xia Changqing's eyes brightened, and he was so excited that his body trembled suddenly: "Mr. Heyun, what do you mean, do you want to accept Xue'er and Shuang'er as disciples? Xue'er, Shuang'er, you two, don't you think so?" Come quickly to meet your master?"
Xia Ningxue and Xia Ningshuang were in ecstasy, their crystal jade cheeks turned red due to their extreme excitement, which was really moving.
Seeing Xia Ningshuang in front of him, the old man in the cloak felt increasingly weak. He breathed out secretly and tried to keep himself normal.
"Master Xia, you misunderstood me. I just said that I would try my best to improve the alchemy skills of the eldest lady and the second lady of the Xia mansion to a higher level in the shortest possible time. I did not say that I would accept them as disciples."
The old man in the cloak said calmly.
It is impossible for him to stay in this Xia Mansion for a long time. At present, he is only staying in this Xia Mansion temporarily. Soon, he will leave Xia Mansion and do his own things.
"Haha, almost, almost!"
Xia Changqing laughed loudly and felt extremely happy: "It all means the same thing."
"By the way, I heard that a beggar came to the Xia Mansion recently. This matter has already spread wildly in the capital. I heard that the beggar saved the Xia Mansion when he was still in the corpse mountain. The entire caravan is such a great benefactor, I think Xia Mansion should treat them kindly."
The old man in the cloak changed the topic. As he spoke, his eyes were on Xia Ningshuang's proud and beautiful breasts, and he swept them vaguely. Leisurely, another wonderful feeling rose up in his hands.
"Mr. Heyun, don't listen to the nonsense outside. He is not a beggar, but a rather handsome young man."
Xia Changqing smiled slightly and said seriously: "That boy is about the same age as Shuang'er. If possible, I would like to bring him and Shuang'er together. Such an outstanding young man is hard to come by. Now he collides with her." When you come to your door, we will naturally work hard."
What?
The body of the old man in the cloak froze, and the face hidden under the cloak suddenly froze, his mouth opened in shock, and his jaw was broken in shock.
Xia Ningshuang, whose crystal jade cheeks were already covered with two moving clouds, glared at Xia Changqing shyly: "Father, what are you talking nonsense in front of Senior Heyun? I don't think that kid is anything at all. Good guy, hum!"<
