Chapter 19: Chapter 17: First eting with the Mistress
Originally, Yin Qinghe wasn’t concerned.
Obviously, it was just an Outer City Cultivator who had only recently entered the Initial Stage, but currently, Danxin Herb Hall indeed lacked staff.
Lacking apprentices who can purify dicinal liquids.
Upon seeing the dicinal liquid presented, Yin Qinghe’s peach blossom eyes flickered, revealing a hint of surprise.
"It is indeed purified dicinal liquid, and the purity... is quite good."
Then her vermilion lips parted, asking, "How did this person perform during the purification, was it forced?"
It’s important to know that purification and alchemy both have success rates.
If it was rely a lucky success, with a high failure rate, being an apprentice is quite challenging.
"Master, listening to the shopkeeper outside, this person purified cleanly, skillfully, thoroughly, not rely by chance, even, even..."
"Even what?"
"Even, might still have strength left."
"Still have strength left?!"
Yin Qinghe was sowhat astonished, what does that an?
Her fingers, like vermilion jade, picked up the Jade Bottle for a closer look, and soon a hint of amazent appeared on her bewitching face.
"This purity seems higher than First Grade dicinal liquid!"
Yin Qinghe knew full well, if Spiritual Power is only at the Initial Stage, at most, it could only purify dicinal liquid to First Grade.
No matter how many tis it’s purified, the purity of the dicinal liquid can’t be improved.
It’s akin to a cultivator whose Spiritual Power hasn’t entered the Initial Stage being unable to purify dicinal liquid.
The strength of Spiritual Power at every stage is different!
The purity of the dicinal liquid before her, while not yet reaching Second Grade, surpasses First Grade.
Yin Qinghe recalled the shopkeeper’s description... this person still had strength left during purification.
Could it be... this person’s Spiritual Power has already reached the Middle Tier of the Initial Stage?!
Impossible!
If it has reached the Middle Tier of the Initial Stage, they would be highly valued by alchemists at any herbal shop, why would they choose to be an apprentice?
And another inexplicable point.
The gap from Initial Stage to the Middle Tier is extrely vast, normally a decently talented alchemy apprentice would require at least fifty to sixty years to cross.
In such a long ti, with Spiritual Power at the Middle Tier of the Initial Stage, how could they not purify to Second Grade dicinal liquid?
Unless...
Just as Yin Qinghe was pondering, a delicate silhouette carrying the scent of herbs walked in.
"Mother, what are you looking at? When will father return?"
The young girl’s voice was as light and lovely as a golden oriole singing at dawn.
Like Jiangnan misty clouds, hazy and intoxicating, or like a stream flowing between mountains, each sound striking the heart.
This is her daughter—Zhao ngli.
Zhao ngli’s talent in the Alchemy Dao surpasses the rest, though she has only just reached adulthood, she is already sowhat famous in Lin Xian City.
As the girl walked, her figure graceful, her unadorned face possessed an untouched natural beauty, as if nature’s most exquisite sculpture, needing no words, revealing elegance.
Especially her phoenix eyes, faintly reflecting a bit of Yin Qinghe’s charm, though not as captivating and enchanting, still bright and pure, uniquely alluring.
Her attire was much more casual compared to her mother, wearing a light pink floral dress with graceful steps.
For coolness, the girl wore bamboo and wood woven sandals, her feet tender and snowy, toes like heavenly glazed beads.
A light blue Jade Bracelet adorned her slender, tight ankles, making her appear youthful and bright, yet also possessing intelligence and elegance.
Zhao ngli’s obsession with alchemy is like her talent, surpassing the previous generation.
She thought of practicing every day, aspiring to beco an alchemist soon, as she hasn’t seen her father for a while, she occasionally steps out of the alchemy room.
"Li’Er, co take a look at this dicinal liquid."
Zhao ngli’s tender jade hand, with a hint of curiosity, took the Jade Bottle from Yin Qinghe’s hand.
"Healing dicine Liquid, purity First Grade..."
In the next mont, Zhao ngli furrowed her delicate brows, even her curiosity seed beautiful: "Huh, that’s not right, this purity is close to Second Grade, but the purification was sowhat careless, so it doesn’t count as Second Grade!"
Though Zhao ngli’s age is small, her understanding is not!
Having been imrsed in the Alchemy Dao under her parents’ guidance since childhood, what she learned isn’t sothing ordinary alchemy apprentices can match.
Zhao ngli’s delicate hand pressed on her rosy cheek, pondering and murmuring, "So strange, why is that?"
Yin Qinghe also paced back and forth, her wide robe stirring up grand waves as she moved, "Purification stuck between First Grade and Second Grade, so it can only be..."
"Spiritual Power reached! But... techniques and skills lack!"
This speculation surprised both mother and daughter.
This possibility... is too low!
With dicinal liquid purity above First Grade, Spiritual Power must have reached the Middle Tier of the Initial Stage.
For such a person, how could they lack techniques and skills?!
Yin Qinghe’s alluring peach blossom eyes also flashed with doubt, "Could it be he figured it out himself?!"
"If so, his talent in Spiritual Power is quite high!"
Zhao ngli nodded slightly: "Mother, we should see his age, why not invite him over?"
Yin Qinghe had the sa thought.
She just thought of instructing the servants, but suddenly realized it was wrong!
"With such talent, would he really be willing to stay as an alchemy apprentice, or even... remain at my Danxin Herb Hall?"
For such a person, any alchemist would imdiately take them as a disciple!
But currently, Danxin Herb Hall doesn’t have an alchemist, can he still be retained?!
On what basis is he retained?
Yin Qinghe rubbed her jade hands, feeling slightly excited, having initially thought it was just an ordinary apprentice, unexpectedly it turned out to be an unexpected find!
She decided, as long as the conditions were right, she would pay extra to keep this person.
Especially for the current Danxin Herb Hall!
Qin Yu was sitting in the elegant room, after the shopkeeper had witnessed his alchemy, surprised, he also knew to establish a good relationship!
With a smile during tea talks, upon hearing the summons, he imdiately led Qin Yu towards the courtyard.
"Friend Qin, this way!"
Qin Yu had just reached the courtyard when a pair of breathtakingly beautiful mother and daughter were scrutinizing him!
Moreover, when Yin Qinghe saw Qin Yu’s face, her eyes lit up, and her charming peach blossom eyes seed to blossom instantly!
This young?!
Before eting, Yin Qinghe was prepared that the person’s age would not be small. Even if the bone age was sixty or seventy, she wouldn’t feel too surprised.
But unexpectedly, looking at Qin Yu’s appearance, at most thirty.
And due to recent changes in his mindset, even more spirited, confident and masculine, leaving an even better impression.
Zhao ngli curiously examined him.
So young, truly willing to co to Danxin Herb Hall to seek a master?
Furthermore, if Qin Yu previously had no ntor, achieving such Spiritual Power accomplishnt all on his own?
His talent would be simply too terrifying!
As the mother and daughter studied Qin Yu, Qin Yu also glanced up and was instantly overwheld by their stunning beauty.
Yin Qinghe’s enchanting figure, even though the long robe was quite loose, still managed to highlight tantalizing curves.
Rather than covering, it seed more like hiding a pipa behind a half-open veil, sparking imagination.
As for her daughter Zhao ngli, she’s also a beautiful maiden, elegant and pure, like a budding lotus, every other scenery becos a green leaf backdrop, making one want to pick and hold her in their palm.
