AST 2141 - She demanded nothing. Refining the Primordial Pig (1/2)
“Why would you suddenly ask about the young mistress? It has been such a long time since I last saw her out here. It’s said that she is currently cultivating inside the Sword Heart Pavilion located within Taiyi Immortal Palace.”
Qing Shui revealed an awkward smile, “So I assume that you would like me to meet your daughter.”
Even though she didn’t say it, Nuo Lan also understood what this ‘meeting’ would mean. She gave Qing Shui a strange look when she heard what Qing Shui said. All of a sudden, she felt weird, but she didn’t know how to describe these feelings in words. Nevertheless, she still smiled and continued, “If you are really able to get her to marry you, there is no doubt that you must have devoted yourself greatly to the god in the past.”
“I don’t like a forced marriage.” Qing Shui said in a serious tone.
“In your dream. I do admit that you are very outstanding, but somehow, I keep having a feeling that she isn’t suitable for you.” Nuo Lan said.
“Oh, then do you think that you are?” Qing Shui smiled.
“Come on! To tell you the truth, the moment you see the Young Mistress, you will immediately think that she is a goddess. Erm, how shall I put it…… It’s just like, in other women’s eyes, she is like a green herb.” Nuo Lan said softly.
“Hmph? For you to look up to her to this extent, it must mean that she is an amazing person.” Qing Shui also found it really weird. Nuo Lan was like the woman among women. Since she possessed the Immortal Fox Physique, there was nothing to complain about her look and her temperament. She was no doubt a top quality woman. But for someone like her to compliment another woman this much, to the point she even felt inferior to the other person. Seeing that, Qing Shui only got more and more excited to see how exactly this woman, who needed her father to help look for a husband, looked like.
“She is indeed amazing. But a word of advice for you, don’t try to lay your hands on her. One careless mistake may cause you to not even want to get close to other women anymore.” Nuo Lan chuckled.
Hearing that, Qing Shui got even more confused. He looked at Nuo Lan, “I am a bit puzzled.”
“Let me put it this way. I have seen her a few times, and she is the kind of woman who desired nothing. If you are to get married to her, you may end up not even being able to touch her hands in your entire lifetime.” Nuo Lan explained.
Hearing that, Qing Shui finally understood what was going on. But at the same time, he was also getting more and more curious. People often said that women were the ones curious about all things, but this wasn’t true. It actually applied to both men and women. So long as it was something interesting, they would be curious to know more about it.
The two returned to the Imperial Cuisine Hall. The whole place looked the same as usual. But by now, there were two additional people who were waiting to be treated.
All along, Zhang Yue had been in the hall. He had been trying his best to take in medical knowledge for the past few days. Ever since Qing Shui came back, Zhang Yue would ask him about the questions which he had prepared himself whenever he saw Qing Shui free. At the same time, he had also been trying to recognize some of the herbs and prescribe medicines.
His body physique was suitable to be a physician. Back then, Qing Shui didn’t have high hopes on him. But in order to return him the favor, he also would try his best to at least make him a well-known physician in the area where he was at. Added on his cultivations, he should be able to become a rich man here.
However, since Qing Shui had already taken him as his disciple, this had changed his whole fate. Looking at how things were at the moment, Qing Shui felt that it shouldn’t be a problem leaving Zhang Yue to take control of one of the Imperial Cuisine Halls.
“Yue`er, you are going to learn acupuncture with me tomorrow. It consists of a wide range of subjects. Take these needles with you and try to get used to the feeling of holding a needle as soon as possible.” Qing Shui passed Zhang Yue a huge box of silver needles. These were all made by Qing Shui himself in the past. For now, since he only used the Gold Needle and Life and Death Needles, the silver needles could simply be used as a tool to teach his disciples.
The Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal!
The first thing which came into Qing Shui’s sight as soon as he went in was the Primordial Pig. It was often said that being lecherous was a dragon’s nature. Thus, dragons would have nine offsprings. A lot of the demonic beasts contained the dragon tribe’s bloodlines. Still, it was beyond Qing Shui’s expectations that the dragons would target even the pigs… The Primordial Pig…...
Just like before, Qing Shui had his sight fixed on the beast that was being restrained. This beast was very terrifying. Nothing, other than the spider web, could bind it. At the moment, Qing Shui was thinking about how he should handle this thing. The reason was that he knew there was no way he could possibly tame it.
Qing Shui felt that it was very unfortunate that he was unable to do so. However, he revealed a joyful expression as soon as he saw the Primordial Demon Refining Furnace in the distance. He might have a way of dealing with this.
The three corpses of the Advancing Divine Worms from before had been dealt with by Qing Shui. He had picked a lot of things from the trees in preparation to make medicinal herbs.
