”Hahaha… Master Ma, you are too polite! I would never have guessed that you are my grandson-in-law's friend! Something amazing must have happened between the two of you!”
Initially, Elder Luo thought that he would never be able to save his face. After indulging himself in the boot-licking moment, he was elated.
”Grandpa, my love, let's leave!”
Chen Xiaobei put on a smile on his face.
Elder Luo and Luo Puti were confused at first but they read his mind seconds later. Both of them nodded and said, ”That's right! We should leave now!”
Promptly, three of them departed. Looking at their back, Liu Chunyi deeply regretted his moronic moves. He never dreamt that Chen Xiaobei was such an insanely powerful individual. Even the influential Master Ma had to lick his boots. Getting to know an influential person like Master Ma made Liu Chunyi really happy. Unfortunately, he pissed off someone that was ten times more powerful than Master Ma.
'This is so stupid!'
”Master Chen! Elder Luo! Please hold on! Please…”
Liu Chunyi was forced to lower himself down to chase after Chen Xiaobei and Elder Luo. Clearly, he knew that alchemist was one of the rarest and most demanding occupations in Jianghu. Even an alchemist like Master Ma was constantly needed by all kinds of powerful factions. Getting to know someone that was better and more skillful than Master Ma was harder than building a staircase to heaven!
Liu Chunyi did not want to miss this golden opportunity. Promptly, he ran towards Chen Xiaobei and bowed in front of him.
”Master Chen! I was blinded by my own ego earlier! It was wrong for me to offend you! I am here to apologize to you sincerely…”
Clearly, Chen Xiaobei despised a hypocrite like Liu Chunyi.
”I don't need you to apologize to me! And, I don't want to have anything to do with you! Bye!” Chen Xiaobei cut him off before he could finish his words.
”Don't leave! Master Chen…”
Liu Chunyi was getting really nervous. Immediately, he turned to Elder Luo with a sad face and said, ”Elder Luo! Please help me to convince Master Chen! Both of our families have known each other for a few decades! You have to help me to say something nice no matter what!”
”Hmph… It's true that our families have known each other for decades. However, I will never force my precious grandson-in-law to do something that he doesn't want to do!”
Elder Luo shrugged his shoulders. A sense of mockery exuded from his eyes. That was definitely a satisfying moment! Feeling regret, Liu Chunyi would never offend Elder Luo if he knew the thing that he did would lead to this undesirable outcome. He really wanted to land a few slaps on his face. Unfortunately, there was no medicine to cure his feelings of regret in this world.
”Ms. Luo! Please say something nice about me to Master Chen! This is all my fault!”
Leaving with no other options, Liu Chunyi went and begged Luo Puti for help. Well, it actually worked! Luo Puti might look ice-cold from the surface but her heart was softer than Chen Xiaobei and Elder Luo. She empathized Liu Xuanxin's current condition; it was not possible for her to stand aside and watch her suffer from the illness.
”Xiaobei, I think you should take a look at Liu Xuanxin.”
Luo Puti shook Chen Xiaobei's arms while asking in a soft tone.
”Alright. I am willing to take a step back since my love is asking me to do her a favor. You must pay me accordingly if you want to me diagnose your sister!”
”No problem! Money is not an issue for me! Just name your price! I will definitely try my best to satisfy your needs!”
An exciting smile surfaced upon Liu Chunyi's face. As the largest faction in Jianghu, Xuanjian Faction would receive abundant offering from their disciples and other factions every year. One could say that they were filthy rich. That was why Liu Chunyi was not afraid that Chen Xiaobei might ask for a ridiculous amount of money! With the intention to build a good relationship with Chen Xiaobei, every single penny that he spent was worth it in the end!
”No, I don't want your money! I desire the Dragon Void Sword in your hand!”
