Chapter 935: Number One Servant

Upon Yuanʼs request, Wang Xiuying brought him to the Sect Masterʼs headquarters.

”Master, are you inside?” Wang Xiuying knocked on her door.

As Sect Master Xiahouʼs disciple, Wang Xiuying had access to the building, so she could enter and leave as she pleased, something even a lot of Sect Elders couldnʼt do.

”Yes, I am here.” Sect Master Xiahouʼs voice quickly resounded.

After all, she couldnʼt risk accidentally offending Yuan again, so she decided to stay in the sect until he leaves.

”Yuan would like to speak with you.”

”Y-Yuan?! C-Come inside!”

The nervousness within Sect Master Xiaohouʼs voice was apparent, causing Wang Xiuying to show a bittersweet smile as she opened the door and entered the room with Yuan.

”Hello, Sect Master.” Yuan greeted her with a gentle smile.

”W-What do you want?”

However, in Sect Master Xiahouʼs eyes, his smile was very terrifying. After all, Yuan had the audacity to go against the Ji Family that ruled almost half of the Nine Heavens.

”Iʼd like to purchase the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pill from your sect.” Yuan did not beat around the bush and said.

”Why do you need something like that? Do you plan on concocting them yourself?” Sect Master Xiahou asked with a pondering look on her face.

”No, not me. My friend will be the one doing Alchemy. Feng Feng.”

The red-haired beauty Feng Yuxiang appeared in the room beside Yuan the next moment.

”My name is Feng Yuxiang. I am the Young Masterʼs most loyal and number one servant.” Feng Yuxiang introduced herself.

However, before Sect Master Xiahou could even respond, another figure appeared in the room— a petite figure with a cute face.

”Xiao Hua will not let such comments slide, you sly bird! Xiao Hua came first, so she is Brother Yuanʼs number one servant.”

Feng Yuxiang rubbed her nose in a cheeky manner and said, ”Oh yeah? While you may have been his first servant, I am definitely in the lead when it comes to helping him! And very soon, I will help the Young Master even more with my Alchemy!”

Xiao Hua gritted her teeth in frustration, but she was unable to refute Feng Yuxiangʼs words. It was true that Feng Yuxiang has been very helpful to Yuan as of late. Not only has she helped him save and earn a lot of money, but she even has what seems like an endless supply of valuable treasures for him. Now that sheʼll also be concocting pills for Yuan, Feng Yuxiangʼs status as his servant has risen to a new level!

At glance, Feng Yuxiang is definitely in the lead out of the three of them!

”X-Xiao Hua can also be useful to Brother Yuan!” Xiao Hua said, and she started taking out powerful weapons and artifacts that emitted the aura of Divine-grade and even Ancient-grade treasures.

Everyone in the room felt their jaw drop to the ground after seeing the amount of treasures in Xiao Huaʼs grasp.

”Here, Brother Yuan! Take these!” She offered them to him with a stubborn face.

Yuan could only shake his head with a smile, ”Donʼt be silly. I never cared about who is more useful to me, nor will I ever rank you guys based on your usefulness. In my eyes, youʼre all my precious companions.”

However, despite Yuanʼs words, Xiao Hua did not feel content. Because of her rivalry with Feng Yuxiang, she couldnʼt help but feel like she was losing— that she was inferior.

”Feng Feng, you should also stop thinking like that. Itʼs an unhealthy mindset to have.” Yuan scolded her next.

”S-Sorry…” She sighed with her head lowered.

They returned to his body shortly after.

Yuan sighed, and he spoke, ”Anyways, I would like to purchase the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pill recipe from you. I know that recipes are very rare and extremely valuable, so I am going to offer you these…”

He retrieved a small wooden box and placed it before Sect Master Xiahou.

”T-This is… Is this what I think it is…?” Sect Master Xiahou asked in a trembling voice.

She had an idea of its contents even without looking inside, as sheʼd seen the wooden box before.

”Yes, itʼs leaves from the Golden Celestial Tree, and there are 9 crimson leaves inside the box. Oh, and before I forget, the Golden Celestial Tree itself is a few million years old.”

”What?! Leaves from a Golden Celestial Tree that is over a million years old?! How is that even possible?!” Sect Master Xiahou exclaimed.

”You can examine the leaves yourself if you do not believe me.”

Sect Master Xiahou swallowed nervously.

”No, I trust you. I want to open it, but I donʼt dare to expose the leaves to any more impurities, so I will leave them inside the box.”

ʼNine blades of crimson leaves… I will be able to concoct three Golden Aptitude Pills! Even if I consume one for myself and give one to Xiuying, I will still have an extra! And these leaves came from a Golden Celestial Tree that is over a million years old! This is a treasure that I will never see again, much less acquire!ʼ Sect Master Xiahou cried with joy inwardly.

”Judging by the smile on your face, I will assume that you are going to accept my trade?” Yuan suddenly said.

Unbeknownst to Sect Master Xiahou, there was a smile that was unbefitting of a woman on her face.

Upon realizing the expression on her, Sect Master Xiahou quickly covered her face and turned around as it was flushed with redness.

After a moment of silence, she spoke in a low voice, ”Y-Yes, I accept this trade.”

”Here is my medallion. Bring it to the Alchemy Store and show it to the people on the tenth floor. They will assist you with everything you need. In fact, you can ask for more pill recipes. These leaves are countless times more valuable than the Tier 5 Body Tempering Pillʼs recipe, after all.”

Yuan accepted the medallion and bowed to her, ”Thank you. You can take leaves now.”

Yuan and Wang Xiuying left the place shortly after to head towards the Alchemy Store once again.
