Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the Zhang Family Patriarch, murmuring under their breath:
“This old fox is the true master of keeping a low profile.”
Elder Bai curled his lips and continued:
“Elder Yu still has two Pure Elixirs, one Restorative Elixir and one Healing Elixir.”
“If you want them, of course, it’s not impossible…”
“Look, Elder Yu has just advanced to Golden Core, aren’t you going to offer your
congratulations?”
After finishing his sentence, Elder Bai even rubbed his hands together.
At this moment, Elder Bai bore not a hint of the demeanor of a Golden Core Immortal, but rather resembled a petty old man from the market.
“I knew it…”
“You were waiting here for this,” the Zhang Family Patriarch said with a smile.
“Alright… No problem…”
“I haven’t had the time to prepare anything now…” “How about tomorrow?”
“Of course, that’s fine…” Elder Bai nodded again and again. Afterwards…
After chatting for a while, everyone took their disciples and left.
After returning to Yuebaolou, because Elder Yu needed to go into seclusion to stabilize his cultivation,
Elder Bai reminded the two of them a few words, and Lin Jing and Huang Qingling went back first.
The next day…
When Lin Jing and Huang Qingling arrived at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, many people had already gathered.
This time…
Not only did people from various families come, but also managers of Yuebaolou, Pill Masters, Talisman Masters, and various other Offering Priests were present.
Just as Lin Jing reached the entrance, he saw two people standing on the street not far from the door of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, in conversation.
One of the figures seemed somehow familiar to Lin Jing, prompting him to slow his pace.
Meanwhile, Huang Qingling was only looking towards the inside of the Pavilion, utterly unaware that Lin Jing had slowed down.
Since they were quite close, Lin Jing heard their conversation clearly.
“This time Elder Yu of Yuebaolou has been promoted to Golden Core; many honored guests will come to celebrate. You must be careful and cautious, not to offend them in any way.”
“Also…”
“Remember to listen more, speak less, and make sure to greet everyone with respect, do you hear me?”
“Yes, Master, I’ve got it,” the other voice replied.
Recognizing the voice, Lin Jing felt a sense of familiarity and, glancing over, realized it was Wu Nie—the man who had lived opposite him back in Fang Market.
Wu Nie also noticed him.
“Lin Daoyou, what are you doing here?” Wu Nie asked, somewhat puzzled on spotting Lin Jing.
The other person, who had been facing away from Lin Jing, turned around and hurried over upon seeing him.
“Pill Master Lin…”
The newcomer greeted Lin Jing with a fist and palm salute; Lin Jing had seen him before and knew he was a Talisman Master and Offering Priest of Yuebaolou.
Considering that Wu Nie had mentioned finding a mentor from Yuebaolou, it must be this person.
He quickly introduced:
“This is the nephew of Immortal Yu, Pill Master Lin.”
“Elder Yu’s nephew…” Wu Nie was stunned, hardly able to believe it. ‘Why are you standing there dumbstruck? Hurry up and address him
properly…” the Talisman Master scolded.
“Lin… Pill Master Lin.’
Wu Nie was incredulous, his words almost halting.
He could not fathom how the man who was once his neighbor in Fang Market had suddenly become a nephew of a Golden Core Immortal.
“Wu Daoyou…” Lin Jing said, smiling.
Having met this person several times and exchanged a few words, they could be considered to have met by chance. He didn’t dislike him…
He had nothing to hide about his previous stay in Fang Market nor any reason to conceal it.
