C2415 Soothing
"My Pill King Valley uses plants and vegetation for its use. It strives to pursue a calm and natural Dao technique, so we do not have any wine brewing!" Gui Yang smiled lightly, then gently raised his hand and placed it on the table. He smiled and said, "Therefore, we can only use this Lotus Heart Tea in place of wine. I hope you two can drink this cup to your heart's content and forget about the grudge outside the valley.
As Gui Yang's words fell, a few of the Medicine Valley's attendant disciples immediately brought out two cups of Lotus Heart Tea and brought them to Lin Bai and the rest of the martial arts world. The teacups were like white jade and the soup was like jade. Although it was only the size of an infant's fist, it was still overflowing with spirit energy, so dense that it was almost impossible to melt.
This was a specialty of the Medicine Valley, and was produced by the strange lotuses on the Cauldron Mountain. The effects were extraordinary, and in terms of increasing Fa Li, it had even more miraculous uses.
Looking at the green tea, Lin Bai's heart skipped a beat and he looked towards Leng Zhan Yan's position. However, as far as he could see, the Lotus Heart Tea was only given to him, and there was nothing in front of Leng Zhan.
However, as far as Lin Bai could tell, it was not the Pill King Valley's people who were deliberately looking down on Leng Zhan. Right now, other than Gui Yang, Jiang Hu, himself and the few Medicine King Valley's elders, there was no other tea at all. The Spirit Spring Sect's disciple who was walking along beside the Jiang Hu with his head lowered and his tail lowered, as if he was afraid of the competition, was also completely empty in front of him.
Lotus Heart Tea was indeed a miraculous tea, but according to what Qang Chang Geng said before, normal people could only take this tea once, and then take it again in the future. Even if they had amazing luck, they could only take half of the tea.
He also saw that after the Lotus Heart Tea was served, the little girl, Leng Wuyan, was looking at the teacups nonstop. It was obvious that the fragrant tea made her extremely tempted and wanted to taste it.
"Guiren, I have a request. Would you allow it?" After a moment, Lin Bai made a decision in his heart. He cupped his hands towards Gui Yang and said with a smile.
"Fellow Lin, if you have any requests, please do not hesitate to ask. As long as Pill King Valley is satisfied, they will do their best." When Guiyang heard this, he straightforwardly waved his hand, smiled at Lin Bai, and teased, "However, if Fellow Lin wants to drink wine, my Medicine God Valley might not be able to satisfy your request. You can only go outside the valley and get drunk."
Even though it was just a tease, it caused the expression of the martial arts world to turn increasingly gloomy. Their hands gripped the teacup tightly, almost wanting to break it into pieces. This kind of teasing from Guiyang was also an expression of intimacy towards Lin Bai, which made Lin Bai even more unusual in his heart.
Could it be that Pill King Valley had already made up their minds, that they would ally with Lin Bai to deal with the Spirit Spring Sect together?
With a change in his thoughts, the eyes of the martial artist could not help but turn towards the short disciple next to him. When he saw that the disciple had no expression and only lowered his head to look at the ground, he slowly loosened his grip on the teacup.
"Although I am addicted to alcohol, I have not reached the stage where I would not like to drink without alcohol. I would naturally not break your rules." What I want is for Valley Master to grant me your wish, I have already drank Lotus Heart Tea before, so it is useless to overdo it, so I wanted to pass this Lotus Heart Tea to my disciple, I do not know what you think, Valley Master? " Lin Bai chuckled as he cupped his fist and said.
With that said, everyone's attention turned to Leng Zhan Yan. They had never imagined that Lin Bai would give up the chance to taste the Lotus Heart Tea for a disciple. Even if he had already consumed one before, the fact that he was still in such a state of mind was truly inconceivable.
Compared to the movements of the martial arts world, Lin Bai's action was even more decisive. One had to know that the people had just seen the Lotus Heart Tea being served to the people of the martial arts world. Without any hesitation, he drank it all in one gulp like a cow and didn't even consider giving it to the Spirit Spring Sect disciple beside him.
Although it was just a side issue, it was enough to see the difference between people. It made quite a few of the elders from the Medicine Valley nod their heads, and their impression of Lin Bai deepened.
It has to be said that the alliance of the two sects wasn't just a simple matter of a contract. They had to join hands and go to the battlefield together to fight against others. If you meet a good ally, you can consider the fact that the alliance is not easy, and take care of you. If you meet a bad ally, you will only wish that you become a cannon fodder.
And right now, Lin Bai was treating this disciple of his with such care. It was sufficient to see how kind this person was. If he were to join hands with such a person, forget about strength and other things, just based on this point, there was no doubt that this person would do something despicable after the alliance.
"So that's how it is. This old man's etiquette is lacking." When Gui Yang heard this, he immediately clapped his hands and laughed. He slightly nodded towards the few Medicine Valley disciples and said: "Go make another two cups of Lotus Heart Tea and give it to the two guests that will follow us in the martial arts world and Lin Bai. Let them have a taste of our Pill King Valley's specialties as well."
Once he said that, the Medicine Valley disciples followed his orders and brought out another two cups of Lotus Heart Tea, placing them in front of Leng Zhan Yan and the Spirit Spring Sect disciple who had come with them.
Looking at the dark green tea soup and smelling the faint fragrance of the lotus in the air, Leng Ying could not help but feel hungry. However, without Lin Bai's permission, she did not dare to drink it recklessly and could only look at Lin Bai with a wistful look.
"Since this is a generous gift from Valley Master, then thank Valley Master and drink it." Lin Bai dotingly smiled and said slowly.
"Thank you, Valley Master!" When Leng Zhan Yan heard this, she was overjoyed. She stood up and cupped her hands in greeting to Gui Yang. Then, she quickly picked up the pot of Lotus Heart Tea and slowly put it into her mouth. She then savored the fragrance of the Lotus Heart that lingered between her lips.
The moment the tea soup entered his mouth, it went along Leng Yanyan's tongue like a spirit serpent and penetrated deep into her internal organs. At first, it gave people goosebumps, but then it was followed by a sudden surge of heat.
The two types of power intersected nonstop, causing Leng Zhan's face to change constantly. Sweat dripped from her forehead, and along her body, there was even a strange rhythm that kept fluctuating. It was very magical.
Soon after, there was a faint sound, Leng Zhan Yan suddenly opened her eyes, a light flashed in her eyes, it was extremely oppressive, her gaze was clearly more profound than before, it was obvious that her magic power had increased a little.
As his mana circulated, Leng Zhan's face glowed with a brilliant light. His entire person had become more beautiful, and he could not help but look towards Lin Bai. As his gaze moved about, besides joy and gratitude, there were also many complex emotions.
"Thank you for the generous gift, Valley Master, for allowing my little disciple the opportunity to increase his cultivation." How could Lin Bai see through the thoughts of the girl's family? After seeing this, he cupped his hands towards the Guiyang Valley Master and expressed his gratitude.
However, his gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, silently swept past the Spirit Spring Sect disciple following beside the Jiang Hu. Although this person's appearance was extremely similar to that of Leng Zhan after he drank the Lotus Heart Tea, for some reason, Lin Bai felt that the strange phenomenon was a little strange, as if it was a deliberate action.
The most important thing was that there was no expression of joy on Lin Bai's face. It was as if this extremely precious Lotus Heart Tea was already something he was used to.
[I am afraid he is a bit strange. He is definitely not some ordinary disciple of the Spirit Spring Sect!] Seeing this person's appearance, Lin Bai immediately recalled the young man that he had seen in the ruins of Little Fang Mountain.
He suspected that this man might be like the young man in the small mountain. He might be a pawn that was sent by Jiang Wanli to watch over the martial world. Perhaps this man was the real decision maker for the negotiations of the Spirit Spring Sect!
Lin Bai also realized that it wasn't just him. There was another person in the arena who was also looking at the Spirit Spring Sect disciple. This person was none other than the leader of the Medicine Valley, Guiyang. It seemed like he had also noticed that this person was not ordinary.
"Returning to the valley master, Pill King Valley has bestowed me with such a great gift, after thinking about it again and again, I truly have nothing to repay you. I just want to give the valley master a chance, and let me use some methods to cheer this feast on!" And at this moment, as if he noticed Lin Bai's and Guiyang's gazes and noticed the person beside him, Jiang Hu suddenly stood up and cupped his hands towards Guiyang.
With that said, all of the Medicine Valley's elders and disciples revealed expressions of interest, and swept their eyes over the martial arts world and Lin Bai. How could they not see that the so-called Jiang Hu's desire to cheer the banquet up was not a form of entertainment? It was obvious that he wanted to use this opportunity to compete with Lin Bai and see who was the better one and who was the worst?
It seemed that the Valley Master's desire for a cup of tea to avenge his grudges was destined to end in vain. However, think about it now. Lin Bai and the Spirit Spring Sect had already died long ago in River Stream. Not to mention the fact that Lin Bai had spoken harshly in seclusion earlier, threatening to erase the Spirit Spring Sect from the world like a small mountain. It was fine if they didn't meet, but now that they did, how could they be good!
"I wonder how Fellow Daoist Jiang would like to liven up this banquet?" When Gui Yang heard this, he faintly smiled and took a sip of the Lotus Heart Tea in his hand. Then, he seemed to not understand the profoundness of the Jianghu and said with great interest.
"My idea is very simple!" The Jiang Hu smiled proudly. His cold eyes slowly turned to Lin Bai as he said in a cold voice, "I am willing to compete with Fellow Daoist Lin and use this as a form of entertainment. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Lin has the guts to fight with me!"
