Chapter 69.2
"Oh right." Bai Zhi Yan suddenly seemed to remember something and his smile became highly earnest as he said: "Miss Qing, do you still have any of those antidote pills? The ones you gave us before had been used up and I had forgotten to keep one for research to see if I might be able to cultivate one as well."
That box of antidote pills had not contained that many but only about ten pills or so as one usually would not need to use them often. She had not thought that they would need so many but thinking back about it, it was little wonder. The high level lands had no lack of highly skilled experts and their elixir cultivators would also be of a high grade. Their witch doctors were well versed in using poisons and antidote pills must be very important to them.
But Qing Yu did not hesitate to speak the hurtful truth. "I still have more but even if I were to give you the entire pill formula, you will still not be able to attain the same effects. Different elixir cultivators employs different methods and this calls very highly precise and intricate control of fire in its cultivation. The slightest misstep would make all the effort be for naught."
Bai Zhi Yan was unable to rebuke her in anyway. "....."
[So that means no matter how hard he researched it, it will be to no avail.....]
[The world always had people born to make others feel utterly useless.]
"Ever since I came to know a maniac like you, I cannot help but feel that all those years I spent on studying Medicine and healing had been in vain." Bai Zhi Yan’s said in a despairing tone, and then immediately turned his words around. "Why not you come to Cloud Heaven to become our elixir cultivator? You will definitely be treated very well."
Qing Yu looked at him out of the corner of her eyes and she said in a highly arrogant tone: "You cannot afford to employ me."
It was not known just what kind of a land that must be blessed with such good feng shui to be able to produce such an interesting soul.
Even when spouting such audacious words in such an arrogant manner, it still made people unable to become angry with them, like she was born to be elevated above all.
"I’ll have the antidote pills sent here when I have the time. But as we do not have any debt owing between us anymore, I will be charging money for them this time." Qing Yu said as she knitted up her brows in thought. "These antidote pills of mine are not things you can get with any amount of money but since we are acquainted, I’ll just make it a thousand gold taels a pill for you."
Upon saying that, she then gave Lou Jun Yao a look, the expression on her face saying "That’s a very good deal for you".
A thousand gold taels to Lou Jun Yao, was worth less than a hair on a cow. But of course he had absolutely no sense of money at all because it had always fallen onto Bai Zhi Yan to handle something so trivial to him, hence he quickly nodded his head generously and said: "A thousand gold it shall be."
"....." Bai Zhi Yan was just bleeding in his heart.
[A prodigal wastrel, truly a prodigal wastrel!]
"I’ll be making a move then. I will still say the same thing. I do not want to invite trouble so even if we meet, take it as if you do not see me. Our relationship now is purely one of buyer and seller."
Lou Jun Yao could not help but laugh when he heard that as he then went on to ask: "That how must it be like before we can become friends?"
Qing Yu who already had one foot outside the door then paused. "You must first be certain that you will not bring me any more trouble and we can talk. I do not want to be persecuted suddenly out of the blue again. That had not felt all that great."
Before she become strong, she must continue to keep a low profile. This stolen new life had not been easy to come by and she would have to carefully calculate it before every little step she took.
The man with his flawless countenance then seemed to show a rippling gleam in his pair of violet eyes, like light reflecting upon spring water, and his voice then sounded deep and magnetic to say: "Such a thing will not ever be repeated a second time. I guarantee it."
The young lady did not turn around, walking further and further away.
Bai Zhi Yan furrowed up his brows, suddenly feeling a bad premonition. "Don’t tell me you intend to stay here permanently?"
"Why not?" The man asked, the expression on his face saying that it was a matter only natural and right.
