Chapter 1985 - 1988: Drinking Tea and Joking with Beauties, Stirring Envy

"Since your daughter, Miss Pan Meiqing, is someone close to Shen Qiang, Shen Medicine King, then we, the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, are like family to Shen Medicine King, aren't we?" The sect leader who was previously pressuring Pan Zheng for an explanation was now all smiles."Exactly, exactly, we're all one family, so this matter should be easy to handle. Leader Pan, please don't take it to heart. Those words earlier were really just a joke." One of the sect leaders forced a smile, explaining.

Seeing their smiling faces, Pan Zheng felt a chill in his heart, for back then, the Thirty-two Skillful Hands were just thirty-two puppet sects under the control of the Medicine King Valley. It was Pan Zheng who facilitated the alliance with them, contending with the Valley, bringing Thirty-two Skillful Hands to control more than half of the elixir trade in the cultivation world at its peak.

Yet, despite all his efforts, the people of the Thirty-two Skillful Hands took it for granted. As soon as any problem arose, they instantly turned against him. It was beyond ugly, it was downright heartless.

If he could, Pan Zheng would have wanted to draw a knife and stab them at that very moment.

But as a mature man, Pan Zheng smiled and calmly said, "There's no rush to talk about this. We can discuss it later. For now, it's the celebration of the Elixir Conference. Besides, the Thirty-two Skillful Hands are all like brothers; there's no need to be so formal. I'm not so petty that I can't take a joke. Come, let's all watch the celebration."

At this moment, at the center of the stage, it was obvious that the Medicine King Valley Master, a bit overshadowed by the appearance of Pan Meiqing, cast an unhappy glance at Pan Zheng.

However, considering the frequent future interactions between Qin Yurou and Pan Meiqing, Qin Yongquan, despite feeling upset and displeased, still smiled and said, "Well then, since there's nothing else, let our celebration begin."

"Serve the tea," Qin Yongquan ordered, smiling at everyone present. "The cultivation world believes that the finest thing from Medicine King Valley is its elixirs, but actually, that's not the case. The unique geography of the Valley, particularly the Lingyun Baihao from Mist Peak, is the finest tea in the world."

"To thank our fellow cultivators from the cultivation world for their support of the Elixir Conference, coming from afar, the Medicine King Valley has nothing to offer but a cup of fragrant tea as a token."

"The Valley Master is too kind!" everyone responded in kind.

Meanwhile, many cultivators in the online live stream chatted enviously.

"Alas, it's just too far from the Medicine King Valley. Otherwise, just having a cup of that Lingyun Baihao would be worth the trip."

"In the early days, the Lingyun Baihao from Medicine King Valley was something even an emperor couldn't easily get a cup of, so after each Elixir Conference, most cultivators would stay for the celebration just for this tea."

Indeed, outside of the Elixir Conference, to drink Lingyun Baihao, it's only possible for sect leaders or those of extraordinary status and prestige; otherwise, dreaming of tasting this supreme tea is like chasing a fantasy."

People in the live stream were full of envy.

At this moment, as the people from Medicine King Valley began to serve tea within the venue, many cultivators present felt a sense of pride.

After all, the taste of the tea, and how good it is, was something most cultivators weren't familiar with.

However.

The Lingyun Baihao from Medicine King Valley isn't something you can just buy online; beyond taste, what's more important is that only prestigious figures can enjoy premium Lingyun Baihao when visiting the Valley.

But now, during the celebration, even ordinary cultivators can enjoy genuine top-grade Lingyun Baihao by participating.

By doing so, in future conversations with other cultivators, they'll have talking points, for anyone who has drunk Lingyun Baihao from Medicine King Valley is naturally of a special status.

The tea was served.

Holding the cup, sipping the fragrant tea, the favored son of heaven, Chu Xiaotian, and many alchemists from the top hundred rankings were immensely satisfied.

"Good tea, with a bright color in the brew, fresh and palate-cleansing, and vibrant—truly deserving of being top-grade Lingyun Baihao."

"The taste is robust yet fresh, aromatic and spirited, indeed perfect."

"The pinnacle of taste, perfectly showcasing the charm of Lingyun Baihao. Green leaves with silver hearts, full-bodied tea soup, accompanied by floral and milky aromas, delicate and lingering, truly a world-class product."

The people present spared no praise for the Lingyun Baihao from Medicine King Valley.

The Medical Saint Inheritance included some knowledge of tea ceremonies, so Shen Qiang was familiar with it to some extent. However, Shen Qiang's heart clearly wasn't focused on the tea; he was surrounded by close family.

The exquisite Qin Yurou.

The stunning Weisheng Zhimei, Palace Master of Baihua Palace.

The voluptuous Pan Meiqing.

The charming and lovely Ye Guyun.

The smart and upright young girl, Abi.

Chatting and laughing with them, Shen Qiang naturally was in high spirits.

The daughters, witnessing Shen Qiang's success, were also naturally smiling brightly.

Such a scene.

Made Chu Xiaotian, the favored son of heaven, who was staring blankly at Qin Yurou while holding his tea cup, snort coldly, "Life is like tea, only with ups and downs can one be calm, only with bitterness can there be fragrance. In times of triumph, learn to be modest, and in times of despair, learn to endure loneliness and refine oneself."

"Yet some petty men, once in power, become overly proud. One must remember that all lives are equal. Look into the heart of the tea cup; the tea meeting the water is fate, just like the fate of life. Don't think that, with a bit of reputation, you can look down on everyone!"

Chu Xiaotian's words were loud and clear, and everyone present being cultivators, naturally understood them well.

Not only that, without needing to guess, everyone could feel that these remarks were directed at Shen Qiang.

Calmly glancing at him, Shen Qiang chose to ignore it. As a dignified Medicine King, quarreling over such trivial matters seemed beneath him.

But at this moment, the alchemist ranked twenty-first on the alchemist hundred ranking list, staring amorously at the smiling Weisheng Zhimei beside Shen Qiang, couldn't bear the jealousy and immediately said sarcastically, "Indeed, the same water, and the same tea, none is more noble than the other."

At this moment, seeing Shen Qiang surrounded by beauties, each prettier and more capable than the last, many young cultivators couldn't sit still and began to speak, knowing that even having one of the beauties glance at them would suffice.

"Indeed, we are born free, who dares to act high and mighty!"

"Haha, what Medicine King, there's nothing impressive. He's drinking the same tea as us."

"Hmm, I can't bear to see anyone becoming arrogant. We're all drinking the same tea, so what's he bragging about? Those unaware might think he has extraordinary capabilities."

"Hmph, having so many girlfriends is the epitome of debauchery."

"His private life aside, but drinking the same tea as us with such an arrogant face is just ridiculous."
