"The Tea Saint really is a blessing to the world, this tea is so sweet and it does soothe the soul, truly a rare delicacy," the middle-aged scholar said slowly, setting down his teacup and gently sighing.
When Lu Yu achieved the position of Sage, and the Tea Sutra was completed, it benefited all beings. The silhouette of the Tea Saint was seen by all beings in the Three Realms, who naturally acquired the knowledge of tea. Thus, within just a few years, the way of tea had spread throughout the Three Realms and Six Paths, especially favored by cultivators.
"It's just a pity that I have no chance to taste the legendary Enlightennt Tea of the Tea Saint," he said with so regret.
The Peach Blossom Woman burst into laughter, her radiant face blooming like a flower, "You're really dreaming, what kind of person is the Tea Saint? The Enlightennt Tea Tree is an Innate Spirit Root. It's said that one sip can lead to an instant enlightennt, how precious that is, and not sothing you, a Ghost Scholar, could aspire to."
But the Ghost Scholar didn't take it to heart and said, "That's just talk. If I really t the Tea Saint, I'd run as fast as I could. If he wished, I probably wouldn't even know how I died."
anwhile, in another part of the city, an old beggar and an old crone stood facing each other, the man dressed in tattered clothes, with a green bamboo cane in his hand that seed freshly snapped, and the woman wearing Miao Clan attire, holding a wooden staff with a golden snake coiled around it, flicking its tongue.
"Move aside," the old beggar said sowhat helplessly.
"I won't. I've said it before. Unless you marry , you can forget about playing the hero," the old crone said, standing her ground, and her words only made the old beggar's headache worsen.
"We are both so old, why do you still dwell on these old feelings?"
"What does age matter? You promised to marry , so you have to keep your promise," the old crone persisted.
Just then, the golden snake on the old crone's staff seed to sense sothing and lost its previous arrogance, coiling around the staff and trembling in fear.
The old crone furrowed her brows. Her snake was no ordinary creature, being a natural-born mystical breed, raised by secret techniques, always proud and haughty. Only the True Dragon Bloodline could instill such fear in it.
Looking up, she saw a dragon head extending from dark clouds and said in slight shock, "It's the True Dragon Bloodline, a formidable being has arrived."
The old beggar frowned at her words. The Treasure Elephant Country was already in chaos, and now a Greater Demon was attacking; truly one disaster after another. He pitied the ordinary people of this city, suffering through no fault of their own.
The Tuo Dragon roared, and the massive sound wave swept over the entire city. The majestic pressure in the sound made cultivators with low mana involuntarily weaken at the knees.
At the inn, the Ghost Scholar and the Peach Blossom Woman also showed serious expressions. This power seed a little too overwhelming.
"Such a character has co to stir up trouble in these muddy waters, what hope do we have left?" The Peach Blossom Woman seed sowhat despairing. She could clearly feel the strength of the Tuo Dragon in the sky, an entity she needed to look up to.
The Ghost Scholar also sighed gently, "Such strength could reign supre, I wonder why it would compete with us for scraps."
At that mont, the Treasure Elephant Country was as quiet as a dropped pin could be heard – everyone was frightened by Xiao Qi's terrifying presence, and the bustling city quieted in an instant.
Just as many cultivators showed a look of despair, a childish voice suddenly ca from the sky, "Senior brother, hurry up and go! My mother is still waiting for us. If you keep showing off like this, I'll tell our eldest senior brother."
"Understood, you really know how to boss your senior brother around," the Tuo Dragon answered with a deep voice, raising its head and setting out towards the capital of the Treasure Elephant Country.
As the shadow fell over the Imperial Palace, everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure Xiao Qi brought to them was indeed trendous.
"I never imagined such a person would have a senior brother and a master. I wonder what kind of eminent figure he is," the Ghost Scholar sighed softly.
"However, looking at the direction, it seems they are heading to the Imperial Palace," the Peach Blossom Maiden murmured to herself as she watched the direction in which Xiao Qi had left.
While everyone was speculating about the purpose of Xiao Qi and his party's visit, the brothers Kui Ping and Kui An had already joyfully rushed into their mother's arms, calling out loudly for her.
Bai Huaxiu hugged her two children joyfully, asuring their height carefully and examining the changes in their faces before she couldn't help but remark, "You've both grown so much, most of the clothes I prepared for you probably won't fit anymore."
"We've activated our father's bloodline, so we've grown faster," the brothers said, sowhat embarrassed, as they touched their heads.
Bai Huaxiu's face lit up with surprise upon hearing this. Having regained the mories of her past life, she naturally knew the significance of activating the bloodline. She had been worried that her mortal body might hold back her children, but to her astonishnt, they had activated their bloodline so quickly.
"That's wonderful, truly wonderful! Your father would be so happy if he knew," she exclaid.
"Oh, mother, this is our second senior brother!" The two youngsters then rembered to introduce their senior brother.
Xiao Qi greeted Bai Huaxiu with a smile on his face and respectfully said hello.
"The children often ntion you in their letters, saying you take great care of them. Bai Huaxiu thanks you deeply," she said.
"Auntie, you're too kind. The two little junior brothers are innocent and adorable, which I really like. Moreover, I like to indulge in mischief myself, often leading them into trouble. I hope you don't mind," Xiao Qi quickly waved his hand and said.
"Has Mr. Lu not arrived yet?" At this point, Bai Huaxiu noticed that Lu Yu was not there.
"The master has other important matters to attend to, so I brought the junior brothers here first. Our eldest senior brother will also be coming later," Xiao Qi explained briefly.
Just then, the Old Monarch, who had been awaiting news, arrived at the scene. He saw Bai Huaxiu and others with joyful expressions. He had thought that his son-in-law, although a Star Lord, was of the noble Demon Race by birth, and the children would surely take after the demon form. But now, seeing the two children carved from jade and emanating a spirited air, his heart was filled with joy.
"These must be my two grandsons!" he asked with a laugh, his face adorned with a gentle smile. The older he got, the softer his heart beca.
"Haven't you greeted your grandfather yet?" Bai Huaxiu gently prompted.
The two brothers then respectfully greeted the King, with the Old Monarch observing that the children, well-mannered and composed, were unmistakably the disciples of an Immortal, possessing a certain dignity.
He couldn't help but smile broadly and said, "Good children, good children. Whatever you want, tell your grandfather later, and I'll have it prepared for you."
After enjoying a mont of family bliss, he then turned to Xiao Qi and asked, "And who might this be?"
"Grandfather, this is my second senior brother, who just brought us here in his true form," the little one introduced his senior brother proudly.
However, the people around them inhaled sharply at the ntion, as the might of the Tuo Dragon was still freshly imprinted in their minds.
