Chapter 2708

2708 Reject him.

Everyone knew about Xia Yimins mission to Qingyuan City this time, so the shopkeeper subconsciously thought of Huangfu qingjue as Yue Kai Li. This was not surprising. Although Tianyu did not have the mindset of valuing men over women, there were still fewer female cultivators than men. Alchemists were even rarer, so he did not think of Ling Chuxi at all. Furthermore, Huangfu qingjues bearing was extraordinary. He naturally believed that the person he invited was Huangfu qingjue.

Am I that old? Huangfu qingjue said to Ling Chuxi in a low voice, pretending to be bitter.

It was rare for Ling Chuxi to see such a funny expression on Huangfu qingjues face. Thinking about Yue Kailis white hair and wrinkled face, then looking at Huangfu qingjue again, she burst out laughing.

Shopkeeper Qian, this is Ling Chuxi, Senior Sister Ling. She is old Sir Yue Kailis senior uncle and also a spirit Alchemist that I invited back. This is senior brother Huangfu qingjue. Xia Yimins face darkened, and he introduced the two to the shopkeeper.

Hehe, this old mans eyes are dull. Im sorry, Im sorry. Ill take you to see the pavilion master now. The shopkeeper surnamed Qian made a big mistake and covered up his embarra.s.sment as he led the way.

The inside of the Dan Xin Pavilion was even more s.p.a.cious than it looked from the outside. It looked antique, but upon closer inspection, it was extremely luxurious. Just the luminous pearls used for illumination were the size of goose eggs. Ling Chuxi was secretly speechless. It seemed that selling pills was indeed a profitable business.

Soon, they arrived at the luxurious reception hall on the third floor.

When the door was pushed open, there were already dozens of guests in the hall. In the main seat, there was an old man with a white beard and a white head. His brilliance was restrained and his aura was calm.

Yimin, youre back too. We were just waiting for you. The old man said in a friendly manner when he saw Xia Yimin.

Pavilion master, Im late. Sorry to keep you waiting. Xia Yimin said as he bowed. It turned out that the old man was the pavilion master of the pillheart Pavilion. Meng Fusheng.

If you know youre late, why arent you sitting down? dont you know what kind of critical juncture our pillheart Pavilion has reached? why are you still dawdling? A middle-aged man beside him muttered.

Although the other two men didnt say anything, they also had a reserved look on their faces, as if they didnt want to be a.s.sociated with Xia Yimin.

Ling Chuxi noticed that the clothes these people were wearing were of the same style as Xia Yimin s. They were all embroidered with the of the pill Heart Pavilion. He remembered that shopkeeper Qian had addressed Xia Yimin as the fourth manager, so he a.s.sumed that these people were the other managers.

However, it seemed like these deacons werent close to Xia Yimin, and they didnt show any good expressions in front of outsiders. Ling Chuxi realized that in the current pill Heart Pavilion, other than external threats, there were also internal problems. These deacons were not as united as they seemed to be.

Xia Yimin was already used to their rejection, so he didnt show any displeasure.

Deacon Xia, didnt you go to Qing Yuan City to invite the Yue clans descendant? Why dont I see him? The tone of the middle-aged Deacon from before clearly carried a sense of condemnation. His eyesight was quite good, and he knew that the young man and woman in front of him were only in their twenties, so they couldnt be descendants of the Yue clan.

Alchemist Yue has an urgent matter to attend to and can not come, so I specially invited him Xia Yimin explained as he introduced Ling Chuxis ident.i.ty to him. However, he was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.

So you invited his disciple? Deacon Xia, although our pillheart Pavilion is currently facing a difficult situation, were not at the end of our rope yet. Not just anyone can come here to freeload, much less waste materials for young disciples to learn alchemy. The deacon said in a very impolite manner.
