Chapter 1020 – Given Up
While Bai Li Ren was hesitant.
It was Plant Sage who spoke out to help him: “So be it, the Holy Court currently do not require the Heaven Sage Dew, give this Sage’s share and the Holy Court’s share to Sage Cai.”
What can Bai Li Ren say? Since the Plant Sage has helped, if he continues to delay, it would become disrespectful.
Offending two Half-Sages for a few drops of Heaven Sage Dew was something only a fool would do.
That was why he gritted his teeth and said: “Since Lord Sage has spoken, this junior shall make the decision and give half a bottle to Lord Sage Cai.” As he spoke, he took out a thumb-size bottle and offered it to Sage Cai.
Sage Cai did not hesitate and took it in his hand to weigh the bottle before opening it to take a sniff, after verifying the contents, he kept the bottle and said: “This sage shall take my leave then!”
He looked at Ji Mo Ya and said: “What about you?”
Everyone looked at Ji Mo Ya, wanting to know his choice.

Huan Qing Yan walked a long way after leaving the hall, she felt uncomfortable; it was as though Ji Mo Ya’s gaze were glued onto her back.
Fortunately, Crazy Sage soon caught up to her and started asking a series of questions regarding Huan Qing Yan’s promotion, before speaking in a formal tone: “You have just been promoted and had also received Chef Sage’s Inheritance, resulting in a sharp rise in power too quickly. Your mind might not be able to keep up with your speed of improvement, so you should enter closed-door training and adjust your condition.”
This was a reminder, as well as a request!
Huan Qing Yan naturally understood the sage’s intention and nodded in acknowledgment.
She knew that the Crazy Sage meant well, she had just obtained an inheritance from the Chef Sage and became a G.o.d Chosen, this was also a time when her reputation and fame was becoming renown, yet she broke up with Ji Mo Ya at the same time.
It was likely that everyone on Spirit Treasure Continent would be focusing on the two of them, if she goes out and about, people with ill intentions might constantly disturb them.
If that’s the case, she might as well use the excuse of entering closed-door training to stabilize her cultivation while evading the waves of gossips at the same time.
Elder Snow had also arrived and felt satisfied when he heard Crazy Sage’s words, at least the latter was really looking out for Yan La.s.s.
He nodded in agreement and added: “I will send Yan La.s.s back and tell her some stuff along the way.”
Tacitly telling Crazy Sage to excuse himself.
Crazy Sage rolled his eyes and was about to curse back when he suddenly recalled that Elder Snow seems to be Yan La.s.s’s official master.
Yan La.s.s’s parents were currently not around, in terms of status, Elder Snow was much closer to her than this old ancestor. If the other party wants to have a private conversation, Crazy Sage really has no qualifications to stop them.
So Crazy Sage unhappily turned around and walked away.
Huan Qing Yan finally could speak to Elder Snow alone, she first congratulated the latter on his complete recovery.
They went to a quiet area where Elder Snow set up an Ice Barrier that prevented anyone within a one-mile radius from approaching before he finally said: “Yan La.s.s, you have suffered. If only master came out of seclusion earlier, I could have prevented you from suffering so much!”
His words caused Huan Qing Yan’s heart to tighten, she lowered her head to clear away the mist that was gathering on her eyes, before lifting her head and smile: “Master, your disciple is very well!”
Elder Snow was actually feeling guilty, he felt that this little disciple had suffered and nearly died because of his cursed fate of causing his disciples to die.
It was only that his little disciple was lucky and managed to escape this calamity.
That was why he was feeling very remorseful, so he took out his Cosmos Bag that contained all the precious natural treasures that he had collected from his estate and gave it all to Huan Qing Yan as a form of compensation.
After that, he tried asking: “La.s.s, have you really given up on Brat Ya?”
Huan Qing Yan’s face stiffened, can’t they just be a pair of happy master and disciple?
When she looked up and saw the concerned eyes of Elder Snow, the resentment that she was feeling towards him mostly dissipated.
