Qingshan Gate.
"Master."
Luo Lanxue respectfully ca before Master Lu Qingshan and softly said, "The number one alchemist in South Sha, Master Lu DaSheng, has co to our Qingshan Gate."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan imdiately sat up straight, excitedly saying, "Master Lu is here? Why didn't you notify sooner?"
"I saw that Master was in secluded ditation so I didn't want to disturb you." Luo Lanxue explained.
"Alright, where is Master Lu? I will go et with him."
Having said that, Lu Qingshan promptly got up, his expression becoming much more solemn.
He didn't dare to be negligent towards Lu DaSheng.
As the number one alchemist in South Sha, although he was just a wandering cultivator, he had unmatched prestige. Even the major sects and influential families of South Sha would treat him with the utmost courtesy.
So having soone like this co to his Qingshan Gate was undoubtedly like having a great virtuous monk visit.
"Lu Qingshan, pays respects to Master Lu."
Outside the door, Lu Qingshan respectfully bowed down and spoke towards the room.
The door quietly opened.
"Please co in!" A hoarse voice ca from inside.
Lu Qingshan entered. Inside, sitting on a mat was an old man dressed in gray robes. The old man had a narrow face and sharp mouth, his entire body exuding a gloomy aura.
"Qingshan Gate, putting on such arrogance!" Lu DaSheng slowly raised his head and looked at Lu Qingshan, speaking heavily, "Making , Lu DaSheng, wait here for half a month before you ca out of seclusion. How impressive."
These mocking words caused Lu Qingshan's expression to slightly change. He hurriedly explained, "Master Lu, don't misunderstand. I truly did not know of your arrival. Please forgive my negligence in receiving you."
"Forget it."
Lu DaSheng waved his hand and solemnly said, "Let's skip the superficialities. My purpose in coming here is only one thing. Recently I need to concoct a fifth grade dicinal pill for a certain Martial Emperor powerhouse in South Sha, but I need to borrow your Qingshan Gate's Fla Pearl to do so."
"Fla Pearl?"
Lu Qingshan's expression shifted.
"I can promise you that as long as you are willing to lend the Fla Pearl, not only will I owe you a favor, but that Martial Emperor will also owe you a favor. This is a rare opportunity!" Lu DaSheng looked at Lu Qingshan and slowly said.
But Lu Qingshan's expression only grew more difficult. Bowing his head he said, "To be honest with Master Lu, your conditions are indeed generous, but the Fla Pearl is not currently at Qingshan Gate. I have already gifted it away."
"What?"
Lu DaSheng's gaze sank. "Lu Qingshan, are you playing with ? The Fla Pearl is your Qingshan Gate's guardian treasure. Yet you tell you've given it away?"
"Master Lu, it is true."
Lu Qingshan hurriedly explained.
"Hmph, I don't care whether it's true or false. I'll give you seven days to get the Fla Pearl for . Even if you really did give it away, you must take it back for ." Lu DaSheng said uncompromisingly.
Lu Qingshan's expression was very awkward.
That Fla Pearl had been gifted to Yi Feng. How could he brazenly ask for it back now that it was in the hands of the benefactor?
And causing dissatisfaction with the benefactor over a small thing like this would be the bigger trouble.
"Oh?"
Lu DaSheng raised his brow.
"Master, I'm afraid this really cannot be done." Lu Qingshan said with a difficult expression. "If there is any other request, I will satisfy Master Lu. But please reconsider this matter."
Lu DaSheng narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lu Qingshan, slowly saying, "Suddenly I'm very curious who exactly you gifted this Fla Pearl to that makes you so wary."
"This..."
Lu Qingshan forced a smile. His words were full of respect as he said, "That sir is not soone I, Lu Qingshan, can casually judge. But he is my life's benefactor, and the savior of my entire Qingshan Gate."
"Oh?"
A look of mockery flashed in Lu DaSheng's eyes as he slowly said, "Since you speak so mystically of this person, it makes , Lu DaSheng, also eager to pay this sir a visit and see if he really is as amazing as you say."
"Master Lu, I'm afraid that would be inappropriate. That sir entered the mortal world only to experience ordinary life, so he does not like disturbances." Lu Qingshan hurriedly explained.
"Speaking like that, it seems I must et him whether I want to or not."
Lu DaSheng raised the corners of his mouth. At the sa ti, the nearby table instantly turned to dust. A powerful pressure bore down upon Lu Qingshan.
Seeing this, Lu Qingshan gritted his teeth as beads of cold sweat erged on his forehead, yet still persisted, "Master Lu, it really cannot be done."
"Hmph!"
Lu DaSheng was furious. In a flash he left the room and instantly arrived beside Luo Lanxue who was waiting outside. His terrifying aura enveloped them as his claw-like hand tightly gripped Luo Lanxue's neck.
Lu Qingshan, who had rushed over, cried out, "Stop!"
"Hehe." Lu DaSheng coldly laughed. "Then let ask, are you going to take to et this so-called sir of yours or not?"
For a ti, Lu Qingshan was caught in a dilemma.
"Hm?" Lu DaSheng's grip grew tighter by two asures as he heavily said, "Rest assured, I only want to get the Fla Pearl from him. I have no other intentions."
"Alright, alright!"
Seeing Luo Lanxue's breathing growing more strenuous, Lu Qingshan could only lower his head.
"Since it's settled, after I finish up my matters here, in five days you will take to et him." Lu DaSheng coldly laughed once more before finally releasing his hold on Luo Lanxue.
Lu Qingshan nodded, his expression unsightly.
He was filled with helplessness.
He only hoped the benefactor would not bla him for bringing people to disturb the tranquility!
