Chapter 2028: Brewing And Enjoying Tea (2/2)
Meanwhile, Qianxuan was controlling the cauldron while Suyao was in charge of the fire. The two of them acted quite natural and leisure, not offended by the menial work.
People didn’t pay much attention to Jinsheng since the two girls were present. They became quite envious. One was the prettiest teacher while the other the prettiest student. Both were brewing tea for Li Qiye.
However, the true masters would be watching Jinsheng instead. Alas, there weren’t that many of them in the world. The ones that could see through the old man would be astounded that such a powerful High G.o.d was chopping wood for Li Qiye.
Jinsheng didn’t complain or feel bad about doing this either. This would make these masters even more astonished.
The wood was now being burned in the cauldron and exuded starry glimmers. It was as if stars have fallen from the sky into this cauldron.
The cauldron emitted a bronze l.u.s.ter with metallic specks of dust falling down. They issued a very pleasant noise as they fluttered with the wind.
Inside the cauldron was an amazing type of water. As the temperature went up, the water jumped and flowed as if it had life. Steam billowed and one could faintly see a wondrous world within.
“Spirit Celestial Water from the Celestial Well of the academy.” Jinsheng who was still chopping commented with a tinge of emotion.
The students salivated again. Though they have never seen this water, they have certainly heard of it.
It was well known that the academy had an old well. The water within was the finest, capable of calming the mind and expelling evil on top of purifying the myriad dao.
Unfortunately, not just anyone was qualified to see this well. The students didn’t have the privilege to enjoy this water.
But now, this group was using it to brew tea? It was an immensely wasteful matter. Such a lavish act truly made others grind their teeth in anger.
A while later, the tea fragrance permeated the air like a dragon and phoenix issuing their cries.
The teapot was also the best of the best. It exuded flas.h.i.+ng violet lights coming from the upper firmaments as if it belonged to an immortal.
Not to mention the twelve-dao leaves, every item here were the finest. Just seeing the visual phenomena made this very apparent even to the unaware.
Just a quick sniff of this fragrance made others think that they were inside a land of immortals. It lingered at the tip of the nose like a comforting dream. It filled up one’s grand dao and gave the feeling of ascension.
The students forgot about keeping up with appearance, leaving their mouth wide open with drool coming out.
Qianxuan personally poured a cup and handed it to Li Qiye: “Young n.o.ble, you have surely drunk amazing teas before, I’m still adept at brewing, so please don’t laugh.”
Li Qiye took a sip and said with a smile: “True, it can be improved.”
This rendered the crowd speechless. To be served by Qianxuan was the blessing of three lifetimes. But now, he gave such a mediocre review? That’s just too much to take.
He finished the cup and concluded: “It’s not bad but far from being the best in this world. Everyone, have a sip.”
The other three had their own cup. Qianxuan said: “It is thanks to you that I’ll be able to taste a twelve-dao tea. This is a kind of fortune.”
Jinsheng respectfully bowed towards Li Qiye: “Thank you for the tea, Young n.o.ble.”
Contrary to the other two, Mei Suyao was very nonchalant because she has been with him for a long time now.
