Chapter 159 - 159: Preparing the Medicinal Bath _1
Qin Changqing was planning for his wedding so that Li Ruoyu could give birth to some chubby kids for the Qin family, when Su Xiaoyue suddenly came and said someone had come to the Qin house and was acting like an expert while not saying a word in the living room.
Qin Changqing went to take a look.
“Senior Ye, why have you come?” He was puzzled when he saw Ye Mo.
Previously, this old man had thrown a sign at him without saying a word, and now he had explicitly come to the Qin mansion, indicating that he had some ulterior motives.
“You kid, don’t even know what time it is, and you’re still sleeping!” Ye MO complained. He had been here for a while, but Su Xiaoyue had told him her husband hadn’t woken up yet, which made him angry.
When had he ever had to wait for someone to wake up like this?
“What time is it?” Qin Changqing looked at the sky and wondered, “I do this every day, don’t I?”
Please, I’m trying to make babies. Who has time to wake up so early like you guys?
Just now, he was discussing with Murong Xue whether they could include Murong Wenxuan next time. Since the two were sisters, it should be easy to convince them. As long as they agreed, the other wives would surely follow suit. At that time, the Qin mansion would officially enter the imparting era.
But before they could reach a conclusion, Su Xiaoyue called him over.
“Humph! Starting tomorrow, you shall get up at mao (5 am) for me.” Ye MO said.
5 am?
What the hell…
Qin Changqing’s face darkened.
Five in the morning was usually when he and his wives were going to sleep.
After all, they needed to cultivate together before sleeping, which would take them until four or five in the morning.
“No,” Qin Changqing decisively refused. “I need rest, and so do my wives.”
“When I say it’s okay, it’s okay.” Ye MO said, “Starting today, you are my apprentice, and I will teach you alchemy.”
Qin Changqing was stunned, “When did I accept Senior as my master?”
“Your master agreed.” Ye MO said proudly, “A few days ago, I went to Xuanyi Peak, and when your master heard that I was here, he cried and begged me to teach you alchemy. I couldn’t bear to refuse since he and I are old friends.”
Is this really alchemy?
Qin Changqing was speechless.
At the same time, he was somewhat suspicious.
“Senior, did my master really do this?”
“Is there anything false about it? I was reluctant, but since he and I have an extraordinary relationship, I came to find you.”
What characterizes an expert?
An expert should always pay attention to their demeanor.
Ye MO thought he was doing pretty well.
Taking an apprentice was one thing, but one mustn’t demean themselves they should be always be heroic.
“Is that so…” Qin Changqing’s tone changed, “Then why don’t Senior go back first, and I’ll go talk to my master?”
Ye MO was taken aback, “This is what your master said.”
Qin Changqing laughed, “It’s all right, I always disregard that old man’s words. Senior, given our relationship, we shouldn’t make things too difficult for you, don’t you think?”
Ye MO remained silent for a while before saying, “Kid, don’t bother, since I promised your master, I won’t go back on my word.”
“But I don’t want to learn alchemy.”
“You have to learn even if you don’t want to!” Ye MO went all out.
When was the last time he felt so humiliated?
The first-class alchemist champion of the Extreme Elixir Grand Assembly, the top alchemist in the whole North Region, actually had to beg someone to learn alchemy with him?
But everything had come to this, so might as well let it be. Ye MO was also stubborn, not feeling comfortable unless he taught Qin Changqing alchemy today.
Fortunately, Qin Changqing’s talent was quite good, and he could actually catch his eye.
Qin Changqing felt so speechless.Are all of you old guys cut from the same mold?
Why are you all so shameless?
However, Qin Changqing really had no interest in alchemy.
It was simply because he had no talent for alchemy, so even if someone taught him, it would be a waste of effort.
He was thinking of sticking to it for a while, but suddenly, an idea came to Qin Changqing’s mind: “Senior Ye, if I were to take you as my master, could I ask you for something?”
Ye MO smiled indifferently, “Of course, as my disciple, it’s no big deal to ask for something. Tell me, what do you want?”
“Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus.”
“Senior, is something wrong?”
Ye Mo’s mouth twitched slightly, “What do you want that thing for?”
“The reason is…”
Qin Changqing called Bai Liu over.
Over the years, he had been searching for the Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus.
Unfortunately, it was rarer than Blood Coral King, even MO Jiuzhou couldn’t find it, let alone him.
But suddenly, Qin Changqing thought that Ye MO was a big shot and a high-ranking alchemist, so he might be able to find a way.
“I see…” Ye MO nodded and said to Bai Liu, “Kid, do you know how precious the Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus is? That thing is comparable to a seventh-grade spiritual grass. Don’t you know how many alchemists go crazy for it? If you give it to her, it’s just to save her life. But if you take it out there, you’ll find a
large group of alchemists wanting to trade for it.”
Bai Liu felt an immense pressure under Ye Mo’s gaze and lowered her head, remaining silent.
“Senior, what do you mean?” Qin Changqing frowned, “Liu’er is my wife, and I married her through proper channels. We are a couple who share the same roots and bear hardships together. If I abandon her for personal gain, what’s the difference between me and an animal? At least in my heart, my wife is irreplaceable! If you consider my thoughts childish, please leave now. The Qin family has always been like this, and it will continue to be like this.” “My husband…” Bai Liu felt deeply moved.
She originally thought that Qin Changqing, who married so many wives, wouldn’t care about her, a mere assassin.
But she never thought that Qin Changqing would give up such a precious spiritual grass for her.
Comparable to seventh-grade… It would be impossible to find such a level of treasure even in Yinxu Prefecture, let alone Dongchi County.
“Haha! I like your style, boy!” Ye MO suddenly burst into laughter, “No wonder that old fellow chose you as his disciple; you have the same stubborn temperament.”
Qin Changqing was shocked, realizing that Ye MO was just testing him.
Sure enough, these old bastards were cut from the same cloth.
He silently shook his head, showing respect to the elderly.
“If you want to rebuild her foundation, the Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus alone is not enough…” Ye MO pondered for a moment, “Here’s what I’ll do. I’ll find some more medicinal ingredients and make you a medicinal bath.”
“You know how to do that?”
“Hmph! Who do you think I am?”
Qin Changqing was overjoyed, “Then I have to thank you in advance, senior…
No, master!”
He, Qin Changqing, wouldn’t bow down for small profits!
But Ye MO gave him too much!
Qin Changqing didn’t know if MO Jiuzhou had deliberately trapped Ye MO into coming, but as far as he understood, most likely, that was the case.
Otherwise, why would Ye MO happen to have the Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus?
Of course, this wasn’t important. Qin Changqing thought carefully and realized that although he knew alchemy, he didn’t know much about elixirs.
For example, if it wasn’t for Ye MO, he wouldn’t have known how to use the Heavenly Snow Spirit Lotus to concoct a medicinal bath.
So after taking Ye MO as his master, he could learn more about the Dao of medicine from him. After all, it’s always good to have more skills.
Yes, he was a flexible person with principles.
Moreover, there were people in this world who had several masters at the same time. As long as they had talent, masters would line up to take them as disciples..
