1839 Drift 2 (1/2)
Elder Ying came rushing back to the palace after he finished up with business outside the palace. He had been sent out of the palace this time because of Elder Yue's tricks behind the scenes. But it had been the Palace Lord's orders and no matter how unwilling Elder Yue was, he still had to go.
In the past few days that Elder Ying had been out, his heart had been feeling anxious, not knowing what kind of terrifying things could have happened in the palace.
Especially under the current situation where Elder Yue had his eyes set on Jun Wu Xie. No one knew what kind of things Elder Yue might be capable of.
On the way back, Elder Yue was determined to return like an arrow released from a bow, as he finally managed to rush back to the Shadow Moon Palace. Reaching the Shadow Moon Palace, he did not even have the time to rest a moment when he quickly reached the little courtyard that Jun Wu Xie was living in.
Having just entered the little courtyard, Elder Ying suddenly discovered a figure in the yard who should not be appearing there.
”So White Shell can also be used like that. It's really amazing!” Yue Ye's eyes were widened as she looked at the dish of white powder placed on the stone table. Jun Wu Xie stood by her side, with a teapot in her hand, who was dripping the plain water drop by drop onto the White Shell powder.
After the crystalline water droplet fell into the White Shell powder, the powder immediately stuck onto it, quickly dissolving into the water. But the water droplet kept its shape and form as it melded with the White Shell powder, to become a white congealed little pearl.
Yue Ye watched in amazement and she could not help herself but to reach her hand out to poke at it. What should have been a wet water droplet, had at that moment turned to become firm and hard, and with Yue Ye's action, it rolled and tumbled off the dish.
”It will not melt or dissolve anymore?” Yue Ye held the little bead in her hand, observing it as she turned it over back and forth, thinking that it was highly interesting.
”Put it in wine and it will dissolve.” Jun Wu Xie then continued: ”White Shell dissipates the effects of wine.”
”Doesn't that mean that if I am competing with others in drinking, I will just need to quietly slip this into my wine and I can turn it into water? And no matter how I drink, I will not become drunk?” Yue Ye asked with her eyes absolutely shining.
