”Brother Chen! What are you doing?! This is not appropriate, isn't it?”
”No, this is nothing compared to a chance to observe her in action! If she wanted me to lick her feet, I'll gladly do so!”
Hearing the ruckus, three people came from inside the refining room.
”Who makes a fuss here?” asked Feng Xue, looking slightly annoyed.
Shortly, she saw her master trying to persuade an old man to get up from the ground.
”Master, Master, what happened here?”
Her annoyance diminished and replaced by confusion, she couldn't understand what event was transpiring here.
Grand Master Chen Xi looked upward, and his gaze fixed at Snowy.
”Are you, Lady Snowy, the esteemed alchemy grandmaster?”
”Un. Are you Grand Alchemist Chen?”
”N-No, no, I can't bear such title with my meager ability. Please call me Old Man Chen if you want, milady.”
”This, milady. This old man has a presumptuous request for you.”
”Please let me see your peerless alchemy, dao! I'll swear with my dao heart that I won't leak your secret to anyone, and I will forever be in your beck and call, crossing mountain of swords and sea of fire for your sake!”
Grandmaster Chen Xi once again prostrated in front of Snowy, begging her permission.
”Uh… Please get up. You don't need to do this. I've never said that I won't allow you to come inside, don't I?”
”S-so, I am allowed to observe you?”
”As long as you true to your words, I don't have any problem with that,” said Snowy casually.
She thought it was advantageous for them to make a man with high prestige and a big-name like Grand Alchemist Chen Xi support Feng Family.
After Feng Xuan fully recovered, Feng Family's influence will be soaring like its never before. But before that happened, Grandmaster Chen Xi will be an extra layer of sturdy protection for the Feng Family. And also, he can provide Feng Family with pills and spirit herbs. With that arrangement, she could feel assured if they left the eastern region to another place one day.
”Thanks, Miladi, thanks!” Grand Alchemist Chen Xi kowtowed once more to express his attitude.
Elder Yang looked at Grand Alchemist Chen full of respect and sympathy.
Everyone knew that Dao was long and arduous. Sometimes, an opportunity to make improvements was as scarce as stars in the day sky.
But, how many people with high status and prestige could lower themselves and learned from a younger generation without feeling shameful.
Could he do it? As a swords cultivator, he wouldn't be able to do so.
”Let's go inside. My preparation had already finished. Now the time to refine the medicine for Uncle Feng,” Snowy said to all people present there.
The group entered the refining chamber and stayed on the sidelines watching Snowy summoning her Myriad Flame Golden Cauldron and the ingredients for the antidote.
”T-that cauldron… I-is, is that the legendary Divine Cauldron?” a certain eccentric old alchemist couldn't help but became hysterical as he saw Snowy's cauldron.
”So, you know about Divine Item too?” Snowy narrowed her eyes and stared at Grand Alchemist Chen Xi, slightly surprised. ”I thought all records about Divinity had already disappeared from the Eastern Continent.”
