Monarch Of Time

Chapter 107 - 107 Senior alchemist

After closing his eyes for a few hours to rest and recover his qi, Shun Long then stood up from his bed as he left his room, and walked toward the ʼTreasure Pavilion.

As he left the ʼMystifying Fragrance pavilionʼ, he saw many outer disciples on the street whispering about something and running towards the same direction.

Shun Long didnʼt pay any attention to them and kept walking towards the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ.

ʼʼMaster, there seems to be quite a big commotion in that ʼRedstone innʼ.ʼʼ

Shun Long nodded his head as he said

ʼʼItʼs natural that they would find out about Xiao Shitou and Lin Wuʼs deaths sooner or later. Iʼm even surprised that it took the sect 3 days to find out about it. Letʼs see how they handle it then.ʼʼ

Half an hour later, a black robed Shun Long had already arrived in front of the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼsʼ entrance.

The line to enter the auction this time, was even longer than last time.

Shun Long however didnʼt queue up, as he directly headed towards the VIP entrance.

After showing his invitation, the disciples in the entrance hurried to inform Yin Xing about it, who quickly came to welcome Shun Long inside.

As Yin Xing guided Shun Long to a private room he smiled as he started speaking

ʼʼSenior, Iʼm glad you came! If you didnʼt come I donʼt know what I would have done.

As soon as the higher-ups of the pavilion heard about seniorʼs wine, our pavilion quickly spread the word of a wondrous wine being auctioned and it attracted the attention of a lot of high ranking Elders from the big families.

However, the higher-ups of the pavilion have told me to request from senior, to accept a meeting with the senior alchemist of our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ so that he can also verify the wineʼs properties.ʼʼ

ʼʼSenior, please donʼt misunderstand. Itʼs not that our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ doesnʼt trust you. The problem is actually with me. My rank is not high enough inside the pavilion, so they also need someone more experienced than me to check.ʼʼ

Shun Long thought for a bit before nodding his head as he said in his deep voice

ʼʼI understand. You can call this alchemist of your ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ then.ʼʼ

After hearing Shun Longʼs words, Yin Xing breathed out in relief before repeatedly thanking Shun Long.

Yin Xing then led him in front of a private room with the number 1 on it, and after opening the door he said

ʼʼSenior, this is the best private room that our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ has, and it is only opened to our most important guests.ʼʼ

Nodding his head, Shun Long didnʼt really pay much attention to Yin Xing, but after entering the room he was actually surprised.

The room was slightly bigger than the last private room he had entered in the past.

The decorations were almost identical to last time as well, except that there was a white couch at the center of the room that seemed to have been made from the fur of a rank 3 ʼwhite-furred bearʼ this time.

Seeing that Shun Long had sat down on the couch Yin Xing bowed his head as he asked

ʼʼSenior, should I ask for senior alchemist Ma to come now? We have less than an hour left until the auction starts after all.ʼʼ

ʼʼIn that case, call him here.ʼʼ

Seeing Shun Long waving his hand, Yin Xing instantly left the room as he went to call that ʼsenior alchemist Maʼ over.

Barely 10 minutes later, a silver-robed old man with a big beard had arrived at the room, with Yin Xing trailing behind him. This old man had a badge of a one-star silver cauldron on his c.h.e.s.t as he was surprisingly a rank 1 silver grade alchemist.

The old manʼs eyes, were staring at Shun Longʼs back full of shock, as he was unable to detect any aura coming from his body.

ʼʼSenior, this is our senior alche-ʼʼ

Yin Xing hurried to introduce him, but ʼsenior alchemist Maʼ was even more eager to speak, as he said

ʼʼThis senior, my name is Ma Tengfei and I am the senior alchemist in the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ. I have heard a lot about you from Yin Xing and couldnʼt wait to meet you myself. I hope that senior will forgive my selfishness.ʼʼ

Nodding his head Shun Long then said

ʼʼItʼs okay. I heard that your ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ wants you to verify my wine. Here.ʼʼ

Taking out the barrel from last time, Shun Long removed the barrelʼs top as the fragrant smell of the wine instantly filled the private room.

Ma Tengfeiʼs eyes lit up as he inhaled the wineʼs smell, while little Black grumbled inwardly

ʼʼIf only master didnʼt need spirit stones urgently, you monkeys would never get to even smell masterʼs wine, let alone have a chance to purchase it!ʼʼ

Shun Long then took a small cup from the small table in front of him, and filled it halfway with the wine before he said

ʼʼTry it. But you can only taste this much, or whoever buys the barrel later will end up chasing you for his money.ʼʼ

Neither Ma Tengfei nor Yin Xing laughed though. Instead, Yin Xing nodded his head as he gulped after remembering the taste of this seniorʼs wine.

He even looked at Shun Long pleadingly but Shun Long didnʼt even spare him a glance. He wasnʼt going to let Yin Xing drink his wine for free.

As Ma Tengfei took the cup, his hands seemed to have been shaking, before he immediately emptied it all in his mouth, in front of Yin Xingʼs and little Blackʼs envious gazes.

The moment that the wine entered Ma Tengfeiʼs mouth, it was like a delicious c.o.c.ktail of medicinal essence that assaulted his taste buds. Swallowing down the wine, the rank 6 Heaven grade expert could feel his body absorbing the medicinal essence, as it pushed his cultivation base upwards, ever so slightly.

He then turned to look at Shun Long with incredulity as he said excitedly

ʼʼSenior, this wine is an absolute treasure.ʼʼ

Then, bowing his head he continued

ʼʼSenior, I have to immediately report everything to the higher-ups of the pavilion about seniorʼs wine and its effects.ʼʼ

Just when Ma Tengfei bowed and was ready to leave the room, Shun Longʼs heavy voice sounded in his ears as he said

ʼʼWait.ʼʼ

Ma Tengfei then looked back Shun Long as he asked respectfully

ʼʼSenior, do you have any instructions?ʼʼ

Shun Long shook his head at Ma Tengfeiʼs question, before he took out another wooden barrel from the ʼStone of Timeʼ and said

ʼʼI have one more barrel that I want your ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ to auction for me.ʼʼ

Ma Tengfeiʼs eyes shone brightly as he saw this barrel and couldnʼt help but ask in excitement

ʼʼSenior! Would you be willing to sell this barrel privately to our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ?ʼʼ
