C177 Wise Fighting

"Who?"

The sudden sound startled Qin Shi.

He wasn't the only one who was surprised. All the people on the third floor were simultaneously attracted by the old man, their eyes filled with vigilance. They looked at the old man in black with confusion: "Who is this? How did he get here? "

"I don't know. Could it be an enemy attack?"

"Nonsense? This is the Alchemist Association, unless someone is crazy, who would dare? " All the alchemists present guessed the identity of this old man.

"Everyone, don't be nervous. This is my old friend: Pu Quan." He Yan looked around and saw everyone surprised. He quickly let out a dry laugh to break the heavy atmosphere.

The Pharmacists heaved a sigh of relief. They paid no more attention to the old man, and continued to look at the precious herbs on the third floor counter.

Just then, He Yan walked two steps forward and patted the old man's shoulder in displeasure, "I say, Old Pu. Is it possible for you to change your swift and decisive actions next time? "Look at how shocked we are!"

"Haha, isn't this what I'm anxious about?"

The old man casually threw down his sleeves and stared at Qin Shi without even turning his head back. Flames burned in his eyes, as if he wanted to swallow Qin Shi whole.

Qin Shi felt uncomfortable as he was stared at by the burning gaze. His hair stood on end as he moved away from the counter in small steps, hiding behind He Yan. He thought to himself, "Don't tell me this old fogey has some weird quirks? This young master is a straight man … "

Not giving Qin Shi a chance, he grabbed him by the collar. He Yan mocked in an impolite tone, "Yo yo, I can't believe that a kid who isn't afraid of the heavens or the earth would have such a cowardly moment."

"Nonsense, I'm afraid he'll ruin my innocence!" Rubbing his lips, Qin Shi tried his best to get rid of He Yan, but he still timidly took a few steps back and complained in a low voice.

"Ho … Brat, you truly dare to think. Tell me, how can this senior ruin your innocence?" Pu Quan laughed, revealing a pair of pure-white teeth. It was extremely inconsistent with his pitch-black appearance.

Qin Shi pursed his lips, not having the nerve to say it.

Seeing Qin Shi's appearance, He Yan laughed. "Brat, you should be thanking Old Pu. If he didn't detect your mind power, I really wouldn't have expected to meet you in this Rainbow Cloud City!"

"Mental Energy?"

Qin Shi pursed his lips in surprise and was suddenly enlightened. He finally understood why He Yan had suddenly appeared on the second floor. He quickly rushed to Pu Quan and said, "Thank you, Senior Pu Quan, for your love."

"Kid, let me ask you, who's your master?" Pu Quan suddenly asked with a face that was still as hot as a human. He viciously grabbed Qin Shi's wrist.

"Eh, Master?"

Being caught, Qin Shi struggled uncomfortably. He was confused, "I don't have a master."

"No master?" As if he had picked up a treasure, Pu Quan's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed. "The heavens are truly helping me. Stinky brat, quickly kneel down."

"Kneel? On what basis? "

Glaring weirdly, Qin Shi quickly stepped back and leaned against the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy's counter. He then stopped and thought to himself, "What are you doing here? This young master is already unreliable enough. Why did I meet an old man who's even more unreliable than me? "

"Silly boy, don't just stand there. Pu Quan is going to take you in as his disciple." Seeing the terrified Qin Shi, He Yan laughed heartily, "Don't underestimate him. He is a respected Charm Magician."

Swish!

In an instant, the entire audience was silent.

In the third level of the medicine store, there was no sound at all. It was so quiet that you could even hear each other's heartbeats.

Qin Shi's mouth was wide open in shock, Luo Haiqing was even more dumbfounded. Even the few alchemists who were purchasing the herbs beside the counter didn't have time to think about the herbs, and looked at Pu Quan in disbelief.

Charm Magician?

In the continent, there was not a single occupation that was not respected.

Alchemists were nothing compared to Charm Magicians. The rarity of a mere Charm Magician was comparable to that of a third rank alchemist.

If the requirement to be an alchemist was the Imperial City, then the requirement to be a Symbol Master was definitely the Heavenly Court …

Two completely different concepts.

The Blazing Flame Empire, every Charm Magician received the same treatment as a royal family. Green lights were released everywhere in the empire.

This news was simply too shocking. As a member of the Luo Family, Luo Hai Qing's thoughts exploded in his mind like a cannonball: "Rainbow Cloud City, there's actually an existence of a Symbol Master? "Since this is such a big matter, we must notify the clan head as soon as possible …"

With his body supporting the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy counter, Qin Shi furrowed his brows, looking at the arrogant old man in front of him, admiration filled his eyes. He thought to himself, "This person is actually a Charm Magician? A person cannot judge a book by its cover, shouldn't there be a limit? "

Qin Shi and Charm Magician had a deep connection with each other. When he was in the tomb of the Barren Town Secret Realm, he had read from the book about this profession. He already knew that this profession was extraordinary.

After that, the two talismans even saved him twice.

"How is it? Do you know just how powerful this sovereign is? " Pu Quan was wrapped in a black robe and his arrogant demeanor rose to a new level. He laughed: "Then why aren't you kneeling down? This sovereign will not easily accept a disciple!"

Luo Haiqing, the other alchemists all looked at Qin Shi with envy.

Compared to a Symbol Master, an alchemist was nothing.

Once he became a Symbol Master, Qin Shi's future would be immeasurable and full of glory.

"I don't want to!"

But just as everyone was feeling envious, Qin Shi straightened his chest and touched the bridge of his nose. He unfurled the corner of his wrinkled shirt and seriously shook his head at Pu Quan.

"Wh, wh?"

The medicine store's third floor exploded, and surprised voices burst out.

He Yan, Pu Quan, and the two old men stared at the youth on the counter, not knowing what to say.

Luo Haiqing's eyes were filled with confusion. She was worried for Qin Shi and tried her best to push him away, "I say, Young Master Qin, are you crazy? You don't know what a Symbol Master is, right?"

"This young master is not stupid!"

After glancing at Luo Haiqing's surprise, Qin Shi snorted in displeasure. He then turned his head and faced Pu Quan as he clasped his hands respectfully. "Senior Pu Quan, thank you for your kindness. However, I don't have the habit of taking you as my master. It seems that it won't go as you wish."

As his voice faded, everyone on the third floor firmly believed that this Qin Shi was absolutely insane. The boundless future in front of them had been turned into a bright future by him …

"No, aren't you used to it?" Is that why you rejected me? " Pu Quan forcefully waved his black robe. He still couldn't believe that he had been rejected. He was the respected Demon Subduing Master …

"That's right."

Qin Shi bent his head down, and was stared at by a few stupefied gazes. In his heart, he muttered: "Hmph, a bunch of country bumpkins who have never seen the world, aren't they just Charm Magicians? What's there to be surprised about, originally there aren't many 'Charm Magic Mirror', sooner or later they will have to learn by themselves, and become a Charm Demon Master."

Actually, he had already made up his mind. Besides, ever since he started cultivating, he had never thought of taking a master. Even if he did, he wouldn't be in the Blazing Flame Empire.

He firmly believed that this was only his springboard.

Sooner or later, he would be like the jade in the book, standing at the peak of the Desolate Spirit Continent and proudly pointing to the lands and rivers that belonged to him.

He was an eagle, so sooner or later he would spread his wings and soar. Even if he was riddled with scars, he would only lick them alone in a dark corner.

Of course, refusing was one thing, but Qin Shi definitely wouldn't let go of such a powerful shield. Moreover, he seemed to remember what this Pu Quan said just now, that he was going to give him the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy.

"Senior, thank you for your kindness. Junior cannot become your disciple, I am truly regretful … But just now, did you say that you would give me this Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy? " With a silly smile on his face, Qin Shi ignored the shocked gazes of the crowd and pointed at the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy behind the counter.

Pu Quan's old face froze and he let out an angry laugh. "Hehe, you brat, you're quite interesting. You've just destroyed this sovereign's stage and you actually have the nerve to bring up this Water Powder Phoenix Fairy with me?"

"Cough cough. Senior, this is your mistake." Qin Shi straightened his body and spoke with an air of superiority, "As the saying goes, 'Public is public, private is private, public and private is not to be confused.' These are two different things."

"Oh? What's so different about that? "

Pu Quan curiously asked as he looked at Qin Shi's reasonable expression.

Qin Shi coughed dryly and cleared his throat. "Look, you just arrived and told me that you're going to give me this Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy. And then you said that you're going to take me as your disciple, right?"

"Mm …" "That's right." Pu Quan replied.

"Look, isn't that right? Then let's do it again according to the steps." Qin Shi put on a serious expression. He moved his body and ran to the front of the counter, saying, "Just now, that was it, right? Senior, you came out of nowhere and said you wanted to give me the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy?"

"Right." Pu Quan was a bit confused. He wanted to see what Qin Shi was actually up to, so he nodded his head in agreement.

"That's right. You should first give me the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy. After that, you can tell me about taking me in as your disciple." Qin Shi turned around and took two more steps away from the counter.

Pu Quan's eyes lit up. He thought that Qin Shi had changed his mind as he pulled out the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy as he faced He Yan and said, "Old Wine Immortal, write this down in my account book." Then, he handed the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy to Qin Shi. "Here you go."

After painstakingly searching for the Spirit Grass, Qin Shi's heart surged with excitement as he hurriedly received it.

"Alright, I've already given you the greeting gift. Now, you should acknowledge me as your teacher, right?" After Qin Shi received the Water Powder Phoenix Fairy, Pu Quan rubbed his hands together as he said this.

Qin Shi stopped and kept the Shuiyan Phoenix Fairy back into his spatial ring. Then, he raised his head and looked at Pu Quan. After a moment of consideration, he shook his head and said seriously, "Mn, Senior, I do not agree!"

"Are you messing with me?"

Feeling cheated, Pu Quan flew into a rage.

But just as he was about to go berserk, He Yan stroked his beard, laughed out loud, and patted Pu Quan. "Old Pu, don't even think about it. You've been tricked by this stinking kid!"

"Old senior, we've already agreed on that. Gifting a Fluttering Phoenix Fairy and acknowledging you as my master are two completely different things. You're such a big person, you can't go back on your word, right?" Qin Shi blinked his innocent eyes as he raised the corner of his mouth proudly.

Pu Quan's face hardened as he realized what was going on. His teeth began to itch with hatred as he squeaked, "Stinky brat …"

During the whole process, Luo Haiqing and the alchemist beside him looked at Qin Shi as if they were looking at a monster.

"This Young Master Qin is truly a genius …" Luo Haiqing admired him from the bottom of his heart. If he could fool the president of the Alchemy Association with an esteemed Charm Magician, there wouldn't be many left in the world.

Qin Shi didn't dare to delay any longer after obtaining the Water Powder Phoenix Fairy. He was afraid that Pu Quan and He Yan would change their minds and ask them to return later.

That wouldn't be worth it. Qin Shi thanked He Yan and Pu Quan, grabbed Luo Haiqing and ran out of the medicine store.

Looking at the two people who had disappeared from the entrance of the building, He Yan bitterly laughed, "This boy is rather interesting."

"Humph, only after a few decades can I meet a kid with pure Mental Energy. I can't let this go. I must make him take me as my disciple!" The blazing light in Pu Quan's eyes didn't lessen in the slightest.
