Two more days pa.s.sed.
Early that morning, Sage Hun Yuan hurried over to Heavenly Pill Tower after hearing the news that Feng Jiu had returned. As soon as he entered the building, he pulled Leng Hua and asked, “I heard that the girl, Feng Jiu, has come back. Where is she? It’s urgent for the old man to see her.”
“Senior, my Master is currently refining pills inside the alchemy room. If you have something urgent, please wait for her to come out again. Why don’t you sit here and take a rest first? Have a cup of tea. I will take you to my Master as soon as she comes out.” Leng Hua smiled and led him to the table provided for guests to rest.
Sage Hun Yuan frowned when he heard this. After taking a seat, he said, “I heard that she came back only a few days ago. Why is she working so hard in refining pills? I know there are a lot of things happening in your Heavenly Pill Tower recently. How can she stay in the alchemy room after her return?”
“Master has been dealing with a lot of things since she came back. She started refining pills yesterday evening and didn’t come out of the room all night. I think Master will come out today.” Leng Hua answered, then instructed someone to serve Sage Hun Yuan a cup of tea.
“Senior Hun Yuan, please have tea.” Bai Qingcheng carried the tea and put it on the table in front of Sage Hun Yuan. When she was about to withdraw, she heard his surprised voice.
“What’s your name again, the surnamed Bai from the Heavenly Sun Immortal Sect?” Sage Hun Yuan was tapping his head as he was thinking, but he still couldn’t recall the name after a long time.
“Senior, my name is Bai Qingcheng.” She lowered her eyes and answered respectfully.
“Oh, so you’re Bai Qingcheng? Come on, lift your head, let the old man take a look.” Sage Hun Yuan smiled with his eyes squinted.
Bai Qingcheng was slightly hesitant. At this time, they heard Leng Hua’s voice.
“Didn’t you hear what Senior Hun Yuan said? Lift your head and let him take a look.” Leng Hua’s voice was indifferent, completely unlike his usual gentle manner.
He knew that Bai Qingcheng once made things difficult for his Master and wanted to calculate her, how could he treat her favourably?
“Yes.” Bai Qingcheng turned pale, then lifted her head. Just, at this time she felt humiliated and embarra.s.sed.
She thought that she was heaven’s proud daughter and was extremely arrogant. Now, however, she had fallen to the point that she had to lift her head as commanded. Only through her own experience could she understand this sense of embarra.s.sment.
“Hehehe, you look good, worthy of the name Qingcheng. But, you’re still inferior to Feng girl.” Sage Hun Yuan was drinking tea while finding fault in Bai Qingcheng’s appearance.
Her spirit slowly revived, she answered in a calm tone. “Qingcheng is just a maid by Master’ side so it’s impossible to compare her with Master.”
“Let me tell you something. Don’t hold onto the pride of being the Bai Clan’s Eldest Miss and the Heavenly Sun Sect’s proud daughter. You are lucky to stay by Feng girl’s side. As long as you belong to her people, she will never treat you badly. Work hard!”
Bai Qingcheng couldn’t help looking at Sage Hun Yuan. With a warm heart, a smile emerged on her face. “Yes, thank you Senior for your advice. I won’t let my Master down.”
Hearing this, Leng Hua could not help giving her a glance. Seeing that her expression didn’t seem to be deceptive, he told her, “You can withdraw!”
“Yes.” After giving a salute, she withdrew.
“Leng Hua, come and take a seat. Tell the old man how your Master came back.. She’s been missing for a year. What’s she been doing during that time?”
