Chapter 85: Chapter 85: I Finally Waited for You
On the back of the crane.
Gu Chenfeng smiled bitterly in his heart: "Who would go to Ancient God Mountain in the middle of the night? Only Uncle Qiushui could think of such a thing, right?"
Who isn’t resting or cultivating at this hour?
Even the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association probably only has guards on duty at the moment.
With a helpless shake of his head, Gu Chenfeng closed his eyes to rest.
Ling Qiushui gently stroked the crane and chuckled, "Xiao Bai, fly slower, we’re not in a hurry."
The crane obediently slowed its flight.
Ling Qiushui looked back at Gu Chenfeng and frowned, asking, "Gu Chenfeng, didn’t you say that the Immortal Without Age appeared when you were about to die? And then Fire God Feather took you to the Ancient Divine Sect."
"Yes." Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly.
Ling Qiushui frowned again and asked, "So, you met the Immortal Without Age for just one day?"
Gu Chenfeng nodded and said, "Uncle Qiushui, is there a problem with that?"
"How is that possible?" Ling Qiushui was shocked and incredulous, "How could you be so familiar with alchemy in just one day? Besides, you’re not even an alchemist."
"What’s more infuriating is that you’re not an alchemist, yet your insight into the alchemy domain rivals that of an Eighth-Grade Alchemist. One day is simply impossible."
"Well..." Gu Chenfeng’s eyes flicked, then he smiled, "Uncle Qiushui, you might not know, although it wasn’t a full day, the time the Immortal Without Age gave me was spent in a space world where he taught me a lot."
"Space world?" Ling Qiushui was astonished.
"That’s right." Gu Chenfeng nodded, "A very powerful world, it should be the spatial treasure of the Immortal Without Age, boundlessly vast."
"Spatial treasure?" Ling Qiushui was shocked again.
Even with a powerful spatial treasure, without a hundred years, Gu Chenfeng couldn’t possibly be stronger than an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, right?
Moreover, Gu Chenfeng’s appearance hadn’t changed; he still looked like a sixteen-year-old boy.
"Absolutely impossible." Ling Qiushui was very certain in her heart, "Gu Chenfeng must have received the Immortal Without Age’s inheritance. Only then could he achieve such frightening alchemical mastery in such a short time."
"If my guess is correct, this kid must have even more powerful elixirs, and he definitely knows how to refine Eighth-Grade, even Ninth-Grade and stronger elixirs!"
"Moreover, there might be an incredibly powerful Alchemy Technique. It seems I need to find more opportunities for him to guide me in the future, and then my alchemy realm will definitely advance by leaps and bounds. Haha, I’m so clever."
Thinking of this, Ling Qiushui’s heart was extremely excited.
She also secretly thought, "Besides the Alchemy Dao, in other domains, his mastery must be extremely high. This kid’s luck is truly enviable, and in the future, he can definitely make countless people in the Cultivation Realm tremble at his name."
Although it was just speculation, Ling Qiushui was very certain.
"Uncle Qiushui?" Gu Chenfeng called out.
"Don’t talk, just focus on sensing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi." Ling Qiushui left him with these words and ignored Gu Chenfeng.
"Understood!" Gu Chenfeng nodded, and then closed his eyes.
Her beautiful eyes looked into the dark distance, with a hint of a smile on her pretty face. Ling Qiushui secretly thought, "The Immortal Without Age is truly a transcendent expert. If Gu Chenfeng really received his inheritance, the Ancient Divine Sect will surely become the strongest sect in the Cultivation Realm."
Ling Qiushui’s heart was full of anticipation.
In no time, several hours passed.
When Ling Qiushui and Gu Chenfeng arrived at the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association, the sky was already gradually brightening.
Even arriving at the commerce association early in the morning, it was extraordinarily bustling.
Gu Chenfeng asked in confusion, "Uncle Qiushui, why are all these people at the commerce association so early? Don’t they cultivate at night?"
"What do you understand?" Ling Qiushui chuckled, "These people are going to hunt demon beasts, and coming early means they don’t have to queue for healing elixirs, and their target is the Seven-Colored Blood Demon Beast."
"So it’s the Seven-Colored Blood Demon Beast." Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly.
Ling Qiushui continued while heading to the Pill Pavilion, "The Seven-Colored Blood Demon Beast only appears at the hours of Mao and Chen, and won’t appear at other times, so you have to go early if you want to hunt it."
"Though it’s only a Tier Five demon beast, it’s valuable all over. Its skeleton can be refined into powerful spiritual artifacts, and its blood contains incredibly violent power. Its essence blood and demon core can aid cultivation."
"Even its seven-colored hair contains power. Most of those hunting the Seven-Colored Blood Demon Beast are Golden Core and Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, and they use it to trade for crystal stones. The prices are high, and there’s no risk to their lives."
In front of the Pill Pavilion Hall, a guard quickly walked forward and respectfully said, "Welcome, Fairy Qiushui. Welcome, Young Master Feng."
Seeing the guard being so respectful, Ling Qiushui was a bit surprised, thinking she might have misheard.
Ling Qiushui didn’t dwell on it, with a light smile, she said, "Please inform your elder that I have a powerful Sixth Grade Pill to auction."
"Fairy Qiushui, please wait a moment." The guard respectfully said and then quickly ran off to report.
As soon as the guard went in, a maid appeared and respectfully led Ling Qiushui and Gu Chenfeng into the Pill Pavilion.
However.
Just as Gu Chenfeng entered the grand hall.
A familiar and excited voice suddenly called out.
"Young Master Feng! It’s really you! I’ve finally waited for you!" Su Shisan ran over, extremely excited.
"Su Shisan?" Gu Chenfeng was a bit surprised.
"You know him?" Ling Qiushui asked Gu Chenfeng.
Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly, "I know him, but we’re not close."
Su Shisan respectfully cupped his fists and said, "Junior Su Shisan greets Senior Fairy Qiushui."
"Su Shisan?" Ling Qiushui furrowed her brows, speculating, "The Su family from the Imperial City?"
"Exactly." Su Shisan respectfully replied.
"You’re looking for me?" Gu Chenfeng asked, "How did you know I would come to the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association?"
"No, no, no, I didn’t know." Su Shisan quickly explained, "After Young Master Feng left last time, I’ve been waiting at the commerce association every day for Young Master Feng. I wanted to go to the Ancient Divine Sect, but I was afraid it would upset Young Master Feng."
Hearing Su Shisan’s words, Ling Qiushui was a little puzzled.
The Su family is a great family in the Cultivation Realm, with businesses spread throughout. Even if their strength isn’t formidable, they are still enough to make numerous large and small forces apprehensive.
Why does Su Shisan need to be so respectful to Gu Chenfeng?
So respectful that he waits for Gu Chenfeng every day at the commerce association.
What puzzled Ling Qiushui even more was why Su Shisan was waiting for Gu Chenfeng.
"Waiting for me every day?" Gu Chenfeng couldn’t help but widen his eyes, somewhat in disbelief.
"Exactly." Su Shisan smiled happily, "Young Master Feng, we’ll talk about my matters later. Let Young Master Feng handle his business first. Whatever treasure you fancy today, it’s on me."
After saying that, Su Shisan quickly stepped aside.
Ling Qiushui looked at Gu Chenfeng and asked, "Is this what you call not close? The name Su Shisan sounds familiar. What does he want from you?"
Gu Chenfeng was slightly embarrassed, "Uncle Qiushui, I don’t know what he wants either. I’m really not close with him, I only met him once at the commerce association."
"Really?" Ling Qiushui clearly didn’t believe it.
"Truer than pearls!" Gu Chenfeng answered with great assurance.
