The sun sets in the west.
The cool-faced woman lay sideways on the bed, her eyes slightly closed, and even a bit tipsy, appearing as though she were drunk, but with her cultivation, at most she would only be slightly inebriated.
In this daze, the woman’s long phoenix eyes opened slightly, and a captivating gaze swept forth, but she imdiately realized who had co knocking.
Propping her head with her hand, her tone was lazy.
"How was your haul today?"
The foot that had just stepped through the door suddenly paused, the expression betraying a hint of helplessness. He had thought that Liu Tangxi would be straightforward in whatever she did, but...
It appears everyone is so subtle when asking for a return gift.
"Sister, I really thought this morning that you were letting go to the Main Peak for a stroll, to get familiar with the surroundings. I didn’t expect that you had sent to collect gift money."
"What, didn’t enjoy collecting the gift money?"
The corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
This smile, which was not quite a smile, made one’s heart flutter a bit. Jiang Feng seed to see his sect sister in this drunken state for the first ti; although she would get drunk when staying at his ho before, she never revealed so much emotion.
It was clear that she was in a good mood today, but what was the source of this good mood?
He imdiately understood that his sect sister was probably happy about the reconstruction of Swordmaster Peak and the addition of new disciples. He had walked around the vast Main Peak today, getting to know the environnt and naturally also t many acquaintances of his masters and senior sisters.
From what they said, Swordmaster Peak was like a ho to sect sister, and she was probably happy about being able to return ho.
"I am happy, it’s just that I feel a bit shaless. I was just supposed to pick up so clothes at the Caiyun Pavilion, but I didn’t expect them to all be the old friends of Master and you."
His expression was a bit awkward. Although this behavior was rather thick-skinned, after he left the Caiyun Pavilion today, he also went to Divine Weapon Forge and Shennong Sanctuary. Aside from gaining so insights and having Su Yi tell him about the sect’s rules and stories, naturally...
"Playing coy even after getting a bargain. Let’s see, sister, what goodies you scored."
She raised her eyebrows.
Her tone carried a bit of hope. She had only sent Jiang Feng over to try his luck, after all, Liu Tangxi herself never thought she would take on an apprentice at such a young age.
She had collected a fair number of trophies from her ... uh, subduing demons and banishing evil in the past, but none were suitable for Jiang Feng at his current realm.
And for herself.
How could a junior brazenly ask for gift money? It’s like when folks visit relatives, and your own family suddenly needs money for an ergency, you can’t just co right out and say:
"Hey, Old Biden, the last ti your son got married and your mother passed away, my parents gave your family red envelopes. Now my family urgently needs money, so it’s ti to take it back, don’t forget to adjust for inflation."
You don’t talk like that, do you? You have to be a bit more subtle, right? When your family visits relatives and you’re too embarrassed to ask for red envelopes yourself, so you have to bring a child to collect them instead.
Behold, Jiang Feng was that child brought by his parents to gather red envelopes.
He sat down directly on a small bench in front of his sect sister, looking sowhat like a conspirator, and soon took out the reciprocal gifts from the elders today. From his sect sister’s expression, she seed quite satisfied.
She flipped her palm over and took the piece of teor Iron in her hand.
"This must be Elder Hong’s work, there are several retired elders in the Main Peak, trendous in strength, plus they are responsible for the sect’s trade, they’ve got plenty of good stuff. Otherwise, why would I send you?"
"teor Iron is a treasure. It could be forged into many Divine Weapons, and the size prepared is just perfect. If it were used for making polearms, it would probably just mold a spearhead, but if it were fused into a sword, it would be just right."
"Soul Nourishing Pills and Qi Rising Pills are both very good. If these were given to , I wouldn’t spare them a second glance because they are of no benefit to , but for you and Jiang Xian, they’re just perfect."
"I rember telling you that with Elixirs this sort of thing, it’s not the higher the Grade the better, but the more suitable for your realm the better. The Scarlet Pill you’ve taken is excellent and superior for Cen Yueyue, but it has its pros and cons for you."
"Elder Hong may not be good with words, but this gift is very thoughtful. Take one pill of each a month, with the speed of your cultivation improvent, you should no longer need them after half a year, but by that ti your realm will likely soar."
"The rest will be left to your little sect sister. Today she has been jealous all day. You, what, are only eighteen this year right? Why do you always stir up romantic debts outside?"
She held back her words.
Before Jiang Feng could muster a defense, Liu Xianzi continued to half-squint her eyes, the effects of the alcohol making her head spin, but she was actually quite enjoying this feeling.
Carefree and unbounded.
"But upon reflection, our Swordmaster Peak hasn’t produced soone quite like you in all these years, with brothers who are each honest and upright, and a Master who ultimately remained unmarried. Hmm~ In the future, the task of continuing the lineage of Swordmaster Peak falls on your shoulders."
"..."
Sect sister must really be drunk today.
I, myself, when did I flirt and sow wild oats? I never even accepted when others threw themselves at !
He sighed.
But Liu Xianzi didn’t dwell on this topic anymore and instead pointed to the other items on the table—a very exquisite-looking ding furnace, emitting purple smoke and wafting immortal aura. One glance revealed that it was not cheap, certainly a Magic Treasure of a quite decent quality.
