The Methods of Refining Pills [19]
As Huang Bei Yue looked, she was stunned. His martial arts was so confident and cool.
Dong Ling was also at a loss for words, “Young miss, is that man an immortal?”
“A lonely Medicine Saint and a wanderer, he’s no different from an immortal!” Xiao Yao Wang smiled as he walked up. He looked at the scroll in Huang Bei Yue’s hand. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
“Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll?”
Huang Bei Yue held up the scroll. She doesn’t know what it is. But looking from the expression of Xiao Yao Wang, it should be a good item.
“Little girl, you’re in luck!” Xiao Yao Wang used his folded fan and lightly tapped her head. His movement showed how much he’s pampering her.
Little girl… Huang Bei Yue’s head was full of black lines. How long had it been since someone had called her that?
“What is this Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll?” Huang Bei Yue lifted up the scroll. On the golden scroll, there was a vitality restriction around it. When she put her finger on it, the restriction was lifted.
It seemed that the Medicine Saint had set the restriction so that by only using her vitality, the restriction would be lifted.
“This《Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll》contains all of the Medicine Saint’s knowledge. He never had a disciple so there would be no successors to his knowledge.”
Xiao Yao Wang slowly fanned himself using his fan. There was no envious expression on his face as he had slowly said that.
“That year, he had met Princess Zhang. He had seen that she was well-mannered and talented. So he had wanted to take her in as his disciple. But later on, many things had happened. Thus, it was dragged on unsuccessfully until Princess Zhang’s death. He was full of regret when that had happened.”
Huang Bei Yue quietly listened. These things weren’t in Huang Bei Yue’s memory. She didn’t know that besides Princess Zhang’s respectable status and outstanding morality and conduct, she has the talent for a refining pharmacist.
Even the Medicine Saint wanted her as his disciple.
A strong sense of pride rose in her heart. But at the same time, she inwardly regrets and wonders why someone as outstanding as Princess Zhang would marry someone like Xiao Yuan Cheng who is a useless weakling as well as an impertinent man.
She doesn’t believe that Princess Zhang would love someone like Xiao Yuan Cheng. Was there an unspeakable reason?
Huang Bei Yue looked at the《Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll》and a faint light flashed by her face.
“Why did the Medicine Saint give me the 《Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll》?” Before he didn’t say that he would take her in as a disciple, he only said that he’s gifting this to her.
It was his first time meeting her and yet he’s giving her such a big gift. Huang Bei Yue felt that she didn’t receive him well enough.
Xiao Yao Wang knew the hesitation in her heart. As a result, with a consoling smile, he said: “Rest assured. The Medicine Saint didn’t say that he’ll take you in as his disciple so you don’t have to worry over the weight of the gift. Just think of it as a gift from him.”
After hearing him say that, the pressure in her heart had become a lot smaller.
If it was someone like the Medicine Saint had asked her to become his disciple, she wouldn’t have acted the same way she did to the strange man from before. She wouldn’t have refused till she’s dead.
The Medicine Saint had only given her the《Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll》as a gift. It could be seen that the old man didn’t want to give her too much pressure.
Because of that, she admires the Medicine Saint’s character even more. She secretly vowed that she would meticulously study the《Hundred Ways of Refinement Scroll》so that she won’t make him lose face.
The people that Xiao Yao Wang had invited had all lift. The remaining few people on the ship didn’t have anything to do. So Xiao Yao Wang ordered the servants to prepare a meal. The few people sat around the table, listening to the rain outside the window. The scenery was hazy. They drank and chatted merrily. With people like Luo Luo and Xiao Yao Wang present, they had a great time as they ate their meal.
