Chapter 42: A Cup of Tea, An Enlightenment
Qin Manyun looked at the Holy Emperor. “Emperor Luo, after all this is your territory. I came here on behalf of my master in the hope that you will help us find the nine-tailed fox. Linxian Palace will thank you sincerely. ”
The Holy Emperor was caught off guard!
Thank you your mother!
'I'm not guilty of you. Why did you push me into the fire pit?’
Steal a nine-tailed fox from an expert? He did not even dare to think about it!
"Can you tell me why you're looking for a nine-tailed fox?" The Holy Emperor would not ask.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Manyun said, "Don't worry, Emperor Luo. We have no ill intentions towards the nine-tailed fox, nor do we intend to harm her. The nine-tailed fox is a very rare species. Now that he had turned into a human, he had great potential to become an Immortal. We just want to invite him to join our Linxian Palace. We are willing to train and support him with all our resources in the hope that he can develop immortality.”
“Fiuh..”.
The Holy Emperor sighed. If Qin Manyun came with ill intentions, he would ask her to leave immediately. He didn't even care if it would offend Linxian Palace! Now that Daji belonged to the expert, the Holy Emperor would not hesitate to make anyone who came with ill intentions an enemy of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, even if it was the most powerful person!
Right now, the Holy Emperor only wanted to be a loyal dog.
Seeing the Holy Emperor not speaking, Qin Manyun continued, "Emperor Luo, it is difficult to become an Immortal. Now that the bridge between mortal and immortal has been broken, no one in our entire Cultivation Realm has managed to become an Immortal for a thousand years. This nine-tailed fox appearance is the most important key for us!”
His tone was sincere and excited.
“Don't worry, Miss Qin. I will do my best," the Holy Emperor nodded in agreement.
'The bridge between the mortal and the immortal has been broken? No way! A powerful great hero was in the Eternal Dynasty of Ganlong Me! More amazing than Immortals!
'And the nine-tailed fox was by his side. If I tell you, do you dare to chase after him?’ The Holy Emperor complained in his heart.
Qin Manyun frowned slightly. He felt that the Holy Emperor was acting strangely.
Why that? It was a nine-tailed fox. Why does he seem uninterested? Did he refuse to help Linxian Palace?
He kept persuading her. “Emperor Luo, the Silver Moon Demon King is looking for the nine-tailed fox as well. If they found it first, they might swallow the core. Then, the nine-tailed fox would be completely extinct. We have to take quick action.”
“Don't worry, Miss Qin. I will make sure that the nine-tailed fox is safe, ” the Holy Emperor said in a serious tone.
Meanwhile, he laughed in his heart. What to fear? Li Nianfan would easily destroy this Silver Moon Demon King without breaking a sweat!
Meanwhile, Zhong Xiu was looking around at the deeper end of the Treasure Warehouse. He frowned at the empty vault. This was supposed to be the place where all the spiritual herbs and potions were stored. Even though he knew that they had given all the best herbs to Li Nianfan, he was still not used to seeing the empty safe.
'I hope Master Li will give us a blessing and turn the Ganlong Eternal Dynasty into a prosperous one, ' Zhong Xiu said in his heart.
For a great person like him, even a speck of dust from the gap between his fingers would be a great opportunity for all cultivators.
After sighing for a while, he started looking for tea leaves. Linxian Palace was one of the top powers and had good relations with the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty. They should treat them with great respect.
Normally, Holy Emperors would store precious tea leaves here. While Zhong Xiu was looking around, he accidentally found a bag hidden in a corner.
"Huh? Why haven't I seen this before? Could this be new?” Zhong Xiu stopped a little. He took a bag to look around.
The bag is not big and looks ordinary. Although the packaging is different from the others they have, it seems rather original.
“If Emperor Luo left him here, this must be something extraordinary. I'll use this to make tea today, then. ”
…
Click, click, click—
Meanwhile, footsteps sounded. Zhong Xiu walked towards them, carrying a tray with a teapot.
The Holy Emperor smiled. “Nona Qin, it took more than a day to find the nine-tailed fox, so there is no point in rushing. Let's have tea.”
Qin Manyun shook his head. "unneeded. I want to go to the transformation place to see it.”
He knew that the Holy Emperor was in no hurry, and although tea might be a treasure in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, tea was not so tempting to him.
“Manyun sisters, why don't you take a sip before you leave? After all it wouldn't take much time, "Luo Shiyu tried to convince her.
The Holy Emperor added, “That's right, Miss Qin. Although our Ganlong is not like your Linxian, this tea leaf is amazing. This is rarer than ordinary herbs!”
Qin Manyun could not resist. His eyes landed on the teapot.
Huh huh?
He's narrowing a little. The tea looked different from any tea he had ever seen in his life. The leaves sink to the bottom without dirt and the tea color is slightly brown—clear and calm—looks like fine amber from afar.
“Tehnya.. different!”.
He is knowledgeable and specialized in tea. Even though he had tasted all kinds of quality tea before, he was instantly intrigued upon seeing it!
A proud smile appeared on the face of the Holy Emperor. The tea collection is amazing. Even Qin Manyun was impressed!
He lifted his cup to check it. Just looking, he was surprised.
Hmph?
'What is this tea? I don't remember tea I look like this every time I serve it to my guests? Where did Zhong Xiu get it from?’ thought in the heart.
Meanwhile, Qin Manyun had already taken his cup. The smell of the tea made him feel fresh. What a nice tea!
He sipped.
A bitter liquid entered his mouth, wrapping around the tip of his tongue. He could not help moaning the pleasure, gently closing his eyes.
He did not swallow the tea and instead tasted it in his mouth.
The taste of his tea became more bitter than before, but his mind became clearer than before. His memories emerged from within and all the confusing thoughts and incomprehensible problems he had were solved instantly.
As the tea flowed down his throat, all his problems disappeared. A single tear escaped the corner of his eye involuntarily. He did not mind and took another sip.
Hm!
Suddenly, the Basics of Wisdom echoed in his ears. His mind became empty and his body relaxed. The Holy Emperor and Luo Shiyu started tasting the tea as well and entered the same condition.
It's just a cup of tea. However, it allowed them to enter a state of enlightenment!
After a full minute, Qin Manyun gradually opened her eyes, a hint of understanding and emotion in her eyes. When he looked at the cup, it was already empty.
What kind of tea is this?
Even the best tea leaves in Linxian Palace were nothing compared to this! They are definitely not on the same level!
That cup of tea is an opportunity for enlightenment. Even though he was at the Yuan Ying stage, it was still very beneficial to him.
