Chapter 84 - Seniors in the Level of Laying Foundation (2/2)
Lin Luoran dares not to pry anymore. She waits quietly with Mu Tiannan who is carrying the stone.
Less than an hour later, Grandpa Mu gradually stops the healing. His face looks pale like he has just been through a serious illness. Mu Tiannan hurries to put down the stone and helps his grandpa to sit on the wooden chair. Then he helps the other old man up and supports him to sit on another chair.
Unlike the ethereal and aloof Grandpa Mu, the other old man seems reckless, even his cultivation is deep… Well, his temperament is like Commander Qin’s when Baojia was hurt.
At this moment, Lin Luoran is not aware that in the world of cultivation, it is very impolite to pry on others’ cultivation like she just did. She is lucky that the two seniors forgive her.
Grandpa Mu rests for a while and says to Lin Luoran like he just comes to himself, “Miss Lin, though you have a top master, your own quality is enviable. I notice earlier that you are one step away from completing the level of Training Qi… Within 15 years, you will enter the level of Laying Foundation.”
Lin Luoran catches the key words of Grandpa Mu. Is she really going to complete the level of Training Qi? It is the first time that Lin Luoran has a clear knowledge about her level of cultivation, which is worthy of her long trip to be here.
After hearing this, the other man who is resting his mind with eyes closed opens his eyes. He checks on Lin Luoran from head to feet and says, “Mu, I bet you that she will enter the level of Laying Foundation in 10 years… According to the decreasing rate of Reiki in the world, she may be the last female cultivator in the country.”
The last female cultivator in the level of Laying Foundation? Lin Luoran is glad that both of the seniors think highly of her, but she is not satisfied with the level of Laying Foundation deep in her heart. If there is a chance, she will never stop pursuing higher levels — Lin Luoran wants to go further on the path of cultivation so that she can see more of the world.
Except for Wen Guanjing, who is skillful in spell-casting, Lin Luoran has never encountered with anyone else in the world of cultivation. Hearing that the two old men just make a bet on her, she doesn’t know what to say in reply.
Just in time, Mu Tiannan comes out of nowhere with three cups of hot tea.
Grandpa Mu says while stroking his beard, “This is the Da Hong Pao tea picked from the seed tree on Mount Wuyi. Although it is nothing like the Reiki tea in the old cultivational world, it’s the best we can find in the mortal world. Miss Lin, I hope you like it.”
Da Hong Pao tea picked from the seed tree on Mount Wuyi… Can it ever be bad? If the words aren’t said by Grandpa Mu, Lin Luoran will definitely think that he is showing off.
“Is this senior…” Lin Luoran can’t finish the sentence because she is not sure about her judgment. She lowers her head and drinks the tea. As expected, unlike the evolved vegetables in her s.p.a.ce, the tea is tasty with its unique fragrance.
Is there a chance that she can plant some tea in her s.p.a.ce? After the refinement of the s.p.a.ce, the Da Hong Pao tea filled with Reiki may be qualified as the “Reiki tea” Grandpa Mu just talked about.
Before Grandpa Mu says anything, Mu Tiannan answers, “This is Grandpa Guo. I asked you for the refined jade to help Grandpa Guo heal.”
The man referred to as “Grandpa Guo” by Mu Tiannan says with a bitter smile, “My old bones really have bothered you all. I may as well return to dust.”
Grandpa Mu laughs, “Again? That year, if it wasn’t you that snuck into that tiny country and was hurt by that stealthy man who claimed to be the emissary of Orochi, you would never get this chronical injury.”
Orochi? Isn’t it a creature in the j.a.panese myth? It is real? An idea comes to Lin Luoran’s mind. Is there a possibility that some characters in the myth of the State of Huaxia are actually cultivators…
However, Grandpa Mu is certainly smart enough to bring about the reason why Grandpa Guo is hurt… Does Grandpa Mu say this to make her sympathize with Grandpa Guo?
Lin Luoran drinks the tea with embarra.s.sment. She is speechless because of the trick of a senior in the level of Laying Foundation.
