3192 Young Valley Master
“Why don’t you bow down when acknowledging your Master?” The elderly man asked, staring at Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu turned to the elderly man and said, “Before entering the world of cultivation, I was unable to cultivate because my meridians were blocked. My master opened my meridians and led me down the path of immortal cultivation.”
She paused, her face slightly downcast. “My Master has passed away. He is very important to me. I will not bow to anyone but him. I explained this to Master before agreeing to acknowledge him.”
The elderly man’s mouth opened slightly in surprise upon hearing this. He had no idea it was for such a reason. He was silent for a moment, then nodded and stepped back without saying anything.
!!
Pill King’s eyes flickered, but he did nothing more than nod and smile. “Yes, Feng Jiu has already told me that she won’t kneel during the worship. I also agreed that kneeling was not important as long as she recognises me as her Master in her heart.”
He looked over at Feng Jiu, finished his tea, and set the cup down before saying, “Starting today, you are my disciple as well as the Young Valley Master. As your Master, I don’t have anything good to give you. Ahem, so I’ll give you some things related to alchemy!”
He took out a medical book and a bottle of medicinal pills. “Here, treat these as your discipleship gifts!”
“Thank you very much, Master.” Feng Jiu thanked him as she accepted the gifts and put them away.
Seeing this, the alchemists exchanged glances before taking out medicinal pills from their bosoms and sending out two seventh-grade medicinal pills. Each alchemist took two pills from their bottles and put them neatly on the table. After the nineteen alchemists had neatly lined up, they bowed to Pill King and congratulated him.
“Congratulations, Pill King! Congratulations!”
After offering their congratulations, they bowed to Feng Jiu. “I have met the Young Valley Master. I’ve offended you greatly before. Please forgive me.”
Pill King smiled as he looked at Feng Jiu and signalled for her to speak. When Feng Jiu saw this, she said, “It is necessary and proper for you to test me. I will not take it personally.”
“Young Valley Master is magnanimous.”
Finally, as they spoke, they smiled and said, “Young Valley Master, these are our medicinal pills. Each one is of the seventh grade. Please accept them.”
Feng Jiu took a glance at the medicinal pills and smiled. “I can trust you.” After giving this remark, with a flick of her sleeve, she collected all the pills into her space without checking the pills first.
She gained the trust and respect of all by doing so.
Indeed, a young person with such exceptional strength and alchemy skill had become their Young Valley Master. What else do they have to be displeased about?
She proved to them that, despite being a woman, she was not inferior to them. So, they would no longer feign compliance while acting in opposition.
“Congratulations, Pill King. Congratulations!”
“We pay respects to the Young Valley Master.”
The voices of the people resounded; this time, it was the people of the entire Pill King Valley shouting; the voices were loud and reverberated for a long time in the valley…
Feng Jiu arrived at Du Fan’s cave in the afternoon. As soon as she entered the cave-dwelling, they gathered around her.
“Master, have they made things difficult for you?” Several of them asked with concern.
