Chapter 2365: Chapter 2366: Apothecary Gathering
Looking at Xue An, whose face was filled with righteous indignation, Cha Wenliang ground his teeth in anger.
This guy is sometimes incredibly admirable, and other times so exasperating.
But he finally calmed down and said solemnly, "Don’t worry, the reason the Medical Alliance invited me this time is for an extremely important gathering!"
"During that time, almost all the physicians and medication experts from Sky Beyond the Skies will attend and exchange transactions. This will be a significant opportunity for you! After all, if you come across rare and uncommon Spiritual Medicine, your Cultivation Level will greatly advance as a result!"
Upon hearing Cha Wenliang say this, Xue An’s gaze softened.
"Oh? A gathering of all physicians and medication experts from Sky Beyond the Skies?"
"Yes!"
"So it should be quite lively then?"
"Of course, it’s one of the top lively events in Sky Beyond the Skies. The key is... ."
Cha Wenliang was about to elaborate on what would appear at this gathering and how crucial it would be to Xue An, but before he could finish, Xue An interrupted him directly.
"Alright, I’ll go!"
Cha Wenliang didn’t expect Xue An to agree so straightforwardly, especially since he had earlier been adamant about not wanting to do anything that didn’t benefit him.
How did his attitude change so quickly all of a sudden?
What he didn’t know was that Xue An actually wanted to take his two daughters and An Yan out to unwind.
After all, ever since coming to Sky Beyond the Skies, the two little girls and An Yan had hardly been out, confined to the Magic Treasures Pavilion in the sea of consciousness.
Though it was to ensure their safety, Xue An still felt quite guilty.
As a father, he felt bad that his daughters, at the playful age were not accompanied more often, and instead confined within the sea of consciousness.
This naturally made Xue An feel quite remorseful.
Therefore, he had long decided that once matters of the Bing Family were settled, he would take his two daughters out to relax first.
After all, no matter how urgent the revenge is, there must be a balance between work and rest, right?
And this gathering that Cha Wenliang mentioned happened to align with Xue An’s requirements, which is why he decided to attend.
No matter what, after receiving Xue An’s response, Cha Wenliang left feeling very satisfied.
Subsequently, Xue An stayed at the banquet for a while longer, but then excused himself early.
Because he noticed quite a few young men eyeing him with eager looks and some were even getting ready to approach him.
Xue An knew very well that these people were mostly admirers of Yue Qinghuan.
Approaching him would likely bring no good.
Though Xue An wasn’t afraid, he preferred to avoid trouble as much as possible, and prevent misunderstandings, so he quickly left the banquet hall.
Watching his hastily retreating back, those youths who intended to challenge him were stunned.
This guy... sure runs fast!
The night deepened and the commotion finally came to an end.
The drunken people left, and the house servants began cleaning up the aftermath.
The entire Yue Clan quieted down accordingly.
And amidst such a setting, Xue An stepped into the backyard flower hall.
The once withered flowers revived, various petals decorated the night splendidly.
Among the rich fragrance, Xue An walked leisurely up the steps, lifted the azure curtain, and stepped inside.
In this small and delicate flower hall, Yue Shifang was seated around the furnace, with various tea utensils laid out before him.
Upon hearing the footsteps, he didn’t even lift his head, merely said loftily, "Wait a moment, the tea will be ready soon!"
Xue An, unpretentious, sat straight down on the cushion opposite him.
As he watched Yue Shifang expertly handling various tea utensils, his smooth movements evoked a somewhat familiar feeling.
Soon, with the pouring of hot water, a faint tea fragrance wafted forth.
Yue Shifang smiled slightly and then picked up the teapot, filling Xue An’s cup with tea.
The amber-colored tea filling the azure-colored tea ware created a unique beauty.
"Try the taste," he said.
Xue An picked up the cup, sipped wine gently, then nodded.
"It’s good!"
"Is it? Let me try it too!"
With that, Yue Shifang poured himself a cup. But when it came time to sip, he furrowed his brows slightly, then shook his head with regret.
"It’s still not right! Strange, I followed your technique meticulously? Why is it still lacking that flavor?"
Indeed!
The techniques Yue Shifang just employed were all derived from Xue An’s usual tea-brewing skills, even mimicking many of the small nuances.
This was why it felt somewhat familiar.
But no matter how he tried to replicate it, Yue Shifang found the tea lacking in an indescribable flavor.
Xue An smiled faintly, "Want to know? Let me tell you the answer!"
With that, Xue An swept his hand across the tea table, pushing the tea ware to the table’s edge where it fell, then shattered like foam before swiftly vanishing without a trace, as if it had never existed.
This move made Yue Shifang’s eyelids twitch slightly.
Being of Supreme Level himself, he understood all too well what Xue An’s deft technique implied.
It was a method of quietly extinguishing material.
Easy to say yet actually requires an extremely profound understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.
Usually, only upon reaching Saint Level could one possibly attain it, yet Xue An managed to achieve this with merely the power of an Immortal Venerable.
Which speaks volumes about Xue An’s talent or potential.
Such thoughts flashed through Yue Shifang’s mind.
At that moment, Xue An turned his wrist and a brand new tea set appeared on the table.
Then he began to brew tea methodically.
Yue Shifang sat across quietly watching, eyes filled with curiosity.
For he too wanted to know what he was missing.
In a blink, the water in the kettle was boiling, and Xue An poured it into the teapot.
Suddenly, an exotic aroma assailed the senses.
An expression of surprise appeared on Yue Shifang’s face, culminating when the tea finally reached his mouth.
"This taste...," Yue Shifang murmured softly.
Xue An smiled faintly, "Something wrong with the taste?"
"This taste seems to have hints of a carefree flavor!"
Upon saying that, Yue Shifang suddenly laughed, "Ah, I see now, thank you, I understand!"
Xue An also laughed, then gently filled his cup with tea, sipping it before setting it down.
"Imitating my movements in brewing tea, though reaching near perfect replication, actually falls into the inferior category."
"True fondness should adhere to one’s heart, any external interference inevitably alters the original flavor of it!"
Saying this, Xue An raised his head, looking brightly at Yue Shifang.
"What do you think?"
