173: Chapter 173: Thank You, Master Bai 173: Chapter 173: Thank You, Master Bai “Old man Murong Zhantian!” Murong Zhantian? How come he shares the same surname as the Murong sisters? “The grandfather of Murong Yue and Murong Wan!” Jiang Feifei whispered into Bai Xiaofan’s ear, quietly explaining. Just as Bai Xiaofan was about to get up and shake hands with him, Jiang Feifei leaned in again and whispered something that almost made him kill Murong Zhantian on the spot. “Your Yueyue has an engagement with that young man across there, probably about to become official soon. It was all decided by Murong Zhantian himself!” MMP... Bai Xiaofan turned his head and looked at Jiang Feifei, who nodded affirmatively. “I didn’t want to tell you originally, but then I thought it wouldn’t be fair to you!” “Murong Zhantian? Haha... old man!” Bai Xiaofan took a deep breath, struggling to suppress the urge to kill Murong Zhantian on the spot, and cursed through clenched teeth. Fuck! Is this guy a lunatic or what? Ten thousand divine beasts seemed to rampage through everyone’s hearts... Jiang Qianhe was almost in tears; she had hoped to speak a few good words for Bai Xiaofan so that they could be done with today’s events. But now, Bai Xiaofan had openly insulted Murong Zhantian, which was like hitting Huang Qianlong in the face all over again. What infuriated her was that with Jiang Feifei and Bai Xiaofan’s intimate behavior just now, even if she wanted to say her relationship with Bai Xiaofan was only average, no one would believe it. “You dare to insult me! I... I must kill you!” Murong Zhantian was fuming with rage, it had been so many years since anyone had dared to insult him, he pointed at Bai Xiaofan, his voice trembling as he spoke. “Kill me? Are you capable?” Bai Xiaofan looked at him with mockery. Murong Zhantian was just an ordinary old man, with not a trace of cultivation on him. What could he use to kill him? His glare? “Good, very good!” Murong Zhantian was stiffened by Bai Xiaofan’s remark, unable to fight back but also too ashamed not to. “Bai Xiaofan, right? I know you!” Huang Shi slowly rose to his feet, his eyes fixed on Bai Xiaofan. “My Yueyue has, I’ve heard, become quite close with you recently. How would you explain that?” Huang Shi looked down on Bai Xiaofan, the ‘Yueyue’ naturally referring to Murong Yue. “Explain? Are you worthy?” Bai Xiaofan already had a fire in his heart, damn it, Huang Shi even had the audacity to actively seek an explanation from him. “Haha, you’re quite arrogant. But I have to tell you something, Murong Yue is about to become my wife, so I advise you to stay away from her unless you want to get burned!” Huang Shi let out a cold laugh, threatening Bai Xiaofan. “Sit down!” Just then, Grandmaster Gu spoke up again, and Murong Zhantian along with Huang Shi had no choice but to obediently take their seats. “We can discuss your issues later. You just mentioned that my Mountain and River Painting lacks spiritual power and vitality. May I know how you discovered that?” After everyone sat back down, Grandmaster Gu looked at Bai Xiaofan across from him and asked softly. Hearing Grandmaster Gu’s question, Bai Xiaofan smiled, then took out a Gathering Yuan Pill and made a hand seal, striking the pill. Suddenly, a rich medicinal fragrance slowly spread out, but under Bai Xiaofan’s control, it only drifted towards Grandmaster Gu. “Such dense spiritual power, this is...” Master Gu instantly sat upright, his eyes gleaming as he stared at the pill in Bai Xiaofan’s hand. “A Gathering Yuan Pill, I think you’ll need it. I made it!” Bai Xiaofan casually tossed the Gathering Yuan Pill to Master Gu, then pridefully pointed at himself. “You’re also a cultivator, Sir?” After receiving the pill, Master Gu looked at Bai Xiaofan in disbelief. “You could say that. Now do you understand how I was able to spot the flaws in that painting of yours?” Bai Xiaofan nodded. “I understand, Mr. Bai. Someone who can concoct such miraculous spirit pills would naturally be able to spot the deficiencies in my humble piece!” Master Gu’s face lit up with joy. He had been in this city for quite some time and had not expected to encounter a miraculous spirit pill like the Gathering Yuan Pill today. No matter the cost, he had to obtain this Gathering Yuan Pill, even if it meant spending all his wealth. Huang Qianlong, Murong Zhantian, and the others, seeing Master Gu’s change in attitude towards Bai Xiaofan, were shocked beyond measure. When had Master Gu ever addressed someone as ‘Sir’? Moreover, the person in question was a young man! What kind of temptation did this pill hold for Master Gu? “Mr. Bai, this Gathering Yuan Pill...” Master Gu did not care what others might think, but looked expectantly at Bai Xiaofan. With this Gathering Yuan Pill, he was confident he could break through the shackles that had troubled him for over twenty years and reach the Foundation Establishment Stage! If he could not break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, his longevity would reach its end, leaving him with at most three more years to live. “This Gathering Yuan Pill...” With a meaningful curve of his lips, Bai Xiaofan prolonged his tone, drawing everyone’s attention, “In the name of Feifei, I give it to you, Master Gu, as a greeting gift!” As he finished speaking, Bai Xiaofan gently wrapped his arm around Jiang Feifei’s shoulders, appearing very affectionate. Master Gu was visibly stunned upon hearing that Bai Xiaofan intended to give him the Gathering Yuan Pill. The others present may not have understood the value of this Gathering Yuan Pill, but he was very aware that if it were to enter the cultivation world, it could fetch at least fifty million at auction, and was priceless at that. A single Gathering Yuan Pill could increase the success rate of a peak Qi Cultivation expert breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage by eighty percent. “Thank you, Master Bai!” Without any pretense, Master Gu stood up and bowed respectfully to Bai Xiaofan, leaving Huang Qianlong and the others completely dumbfounded, all speculating what kind of miraculous spirit pill the Gathering Yuan Pill was to make Master Gu, so full of pride, be so respectful. Not only did he address Bai Xiaofan as Master Bai, but he also bowed respectfully, the very gesture of a junior to an elder. “Master Gu is too kind. We are both seekers of the Dao, and it is only right to help one another!” Bai Xiaofan also stood up to return the bow, smiling as he spoke. Jiang Feifei looked at Bai Xiaofan beside her, wondering if this was still the Bai Xiaofan she knew. Since when has Bai Xiaofan been so polite to others? “Xiaofan, didn’t you say you had some items you wanted to sell? Master Gu is here, why not show them to him?” Jiang Qianhe’s eyes flickered, she coughed slightly, and addressed Bai Xiaofan. “Really? Master Bai actually has treasures to sell, bring them out quickly and let this old man have a look!” Master Gu, sharp as ever, immediately picked up on Jiang Qianhe’s implication and spoke to Bai Xiaofan enthusiastically. “It’s nothing much, just a few spirit pills I’ve concocted!” Bai Xiaofan cast an approving glance at Jiang Qianhe, thinking that she indeed had a higher emotional intelligence than her daughter after mixing in society for so many years. Bai Xiaofan took out a bunch of bottles and jars, arranging them on the coffee table between everyone.
