Chapter 641: The Grand Elders question (2) (2/2)
Shun Long seemed to have understood what this legendary old monster from the Holy sect in front of him was trying to say, but he remained silent for a moment, almost as if he was contemplating on his answer.
After all, Shun Long could sense that there were actually some things that the Grand Elder had chosen to hide from his story.
At that moment, Jiang Chen was actually the first one who took a step forward standing next to Shun Long, and as he stared at the white-robed Grand Elder he asked in a serious voice
''Grand Elder, even if you were curious about me, do you really believe that it's possible for Shun Long to heal my father?''
Although Jiang Chen's tone was respectful, the look in his eyes was extremely serious as he stared at the old man in front of him who was leisurely drinking his wine.
No matter what, Jiang Chen wasn't going to accept the Grand Elder's excuse either.
Turning his gaze towards Jiang Chen, the Grand Elder actually smiled and nodded his head before he answered
''Haha, kid, you are right. Even if someone managed to heal Jiang Tianfang, I normally wouldn't have come to the conclusion that it would be Shun Long. After all, in the past, Jiang Tianfang had come to our Holy sect to ask for help as well, but even 1-star alchemists like Mao Jing had failed to treat him, so how could a late-stage Nascent Soul outer court disciple possibly do so?''
Xingyi's master, Mao Jing nodded her head gravely as she agreed with the Grand Elder without any shame.
She still remembered how terrifying the poison inside Jiang Tianfang's dantian really was, making her shiver just at the thought of it.
That day, Mao Jing had nearly died as that poison had almost ended up attacking her as well.
Back then, she had told Jiang Tianfang that it was impossible for any 1-star alchemist to heal him, and only 2-star alchemists could possibly do so.
After all, the difference between 1-star and 2-star alchemists was enormous, and even though it was extremely difficult for someone to normally ask for the help of a 2-star alchemist, it was still not impossible for an expert at the level of Jiang Tianfang to do so if he was willing to pay a heavy price.
The Grand Elder's deep black eyes shone brightly as he looked at Shun Long and continued
''I am not sure what you did, but I am certain that you are somehow related to Jiang Tianfang's recovery. Although I wouldn't believe it if it was another outer disciple in front of me, you are different.
After all... you destroyed the ball of fate!''
The Grand Elder had a solemn look once he said the last sentence, but a moment later, he suddenly started to laugh loudly, his booming laughter actually shaking the entire private room.
Looking at Shun Long, the Grand Elder's smile turned even more noticeable as he finally said a moment later
''Hahaha, it's fine. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. After all, I didn't come here to ask you things regarding Jiang Tianfang. The reason I am here today is a different one.
Shun Long, tell me, are you willing to take me as your master?''
