A sip of Golden Core Spiritual Tea could save a month of arduous cultivation.
Of course, that’s if you were calculating based on the cost.
Such a secret, even if known to ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, was completely unattainable for them.
They did not have such strong financial resources.
Therefore, when He Song realized the slight resistance showing on Xiao Qing’s face, he understood why it was there.
A smile also flashed across He Song’s face.
“Young friend, no need to worry.”
“The spirit Qi in this spirit tea is indeed rich, but if it’s just a small cup, you can still drink it.”
“As long as you don’t drink too much at once, there won’t be any danger.”
“Moreover, this place is Treasure Pavilion, even if there were any danger, I would certainly save you.”
“Consider this cup as if the previous incident never happened.”
“What do you think, young friend?”
His gaze swept over the small half-cup of spirit tea in front of Xiao Qing, and over Xiao Qing, whose face showed a struggle after hearing these words.
He Song chuckled in his heart.
It wasn’t that he was unwilling to pour more spirit tea for Xiao Qing.
The main reason was that Xiao Qing’s cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm; if it was too much, it might indeed be dangerous.
Now, this small cup was just the right amount for one sip.
Beyond that,
He Song was slightly surprised by the conflicted expression on Xiao Qing’s face at this moment.
He originally thought that upon hearing his words, Xiao Qing would drink the small cup of spirit tea without hesitation to maintain their relationship.
After all, getting on good terms with a Golden Elixir Master is a huge boon for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Just like now, what He Song had carelessly given could save Xiao Qing an entire month of hard cultivation.
But He Song had not expected that Xiao Qing would be so cautious.
Not only did she not drink the small cup of spirit tea without hesitation,
but she even showed a look of struggle.
It seemed she was weighing the truth of He Song’s words in her mind.
Watching Xiao Qing’s current demeanor, He Song reflected momentarily and quickly recalled their initial contact in Treasure Pavilion years ago.
Years ago, He Song had met Xiao Qing here in Treasure Pavilion.
At that time, He Song was curious about the change in Xiao Qing’s status and asked her to share her story.
In what Xiao Qing subsequently revealed, He Song also heard about some of her affairs.
The specific story involved the death of Xiao Qing’s master, and the enemies of her late master seeking revenge.
Then, when Xiao Qing could no longer bear it, she directly hired someone to execute a brutal killing of her adversaries.
And afterward, she completely eradicated her enemy’s family.
For such matters,
He Song naturally drew a conclusion from what he had heard from Xiao Qing back then.
This Xiao Qing was indeed a very cautious person.
She understood the principle of eradicating troubles by the roots and would indeed do so.
Now, after so many years have passed since then,
Xiao Qing’s caution seemed unchanged.
As thoughts flickered through his mind, He Song looked at Xiao Qing before him, yet he said nothing.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
He just quietly waited for Xiao Qing’s choice.
He had no reason to harm Xiao Qing over this matter, and he disdained the idea.
Just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, if it ever came to the point where she must be removed, He Song was completely confident in his ability to kill without anyone noticing.
And certainly, he wouldn’t act here, leaving such a significant flaw.
He Song did not have to wait long.
Soon,
after some internal struggle,
Xiao Qing’s expression quickly calmed down,
and even, He Song could see a hint of joy in the depths of her eyes.
In He Song’s view,
Xiao Qing had seen the light.
And Xiao Qing did not disappoint He Song’s expectations; once she was sure there was no danger, she immediately picked up the teacup in front of her and drank it down.
Thus, feeling the rapid increase of mana inside her body, Xiao Qing’s expression quickly became even more joyful.
With a sip of spirit tea, Xiao Qing sensed the growth of her own mana.
The look in her eyes when she gazed at He Song could not fully hide her delight.
“Thank you, Sir.”
“As for the matter before, this junior never took it to heart, and now that Sir has spent on my behalf, it truly is my fault.”
“Please rest assured, Sir, that no matter what situation arises in the future, this junior will report to Sir at the first opportunity, letting Sir know.”
“With Sir’s status, even internal affairs of the Treasure Pavilion are all within your reach.”
“This matter, this junior will handle meticulously, ensuring not to worry Sir.”
Upon drinking the spirit tea, Xiao Qing found the mana that she gained was actually comparable to a month of her arduous cultivation.
Naturally, she immediately demonstrated enough sincerity in return for He Song’s generous gift.
Not only did she claim to never have taken the previous matter to heart, but she even informed He Song that she would now be even more diligent in conveying messages to him.
As for the internal affairs of Treasure Pavilion that she had not previously disclosed to He Song because of his status,
now, Xiao Qing personally pledged to fully inform He Song.
One could say,
that this cup of Golden Core Spiritual Tea that Xiao Qing took from He Song, while nothing much for He Song,
had brought him considerable benefits.
Realizing this, He Song couldn’t help but sigh internally.
Indeed,
in the Cultivation World, regardless of one’s level of cultivation, the idea of striving to associate with higher-level beings does have some merit.
Even if it’s just a little bit that slips through the fingers of these seniors.
To the lower-ranked cultivators who know them, it’s still a significant opportunity.
As long as one maintains good relations with such esteemed seniors, such opportunities could well continue to emerge.
In this light,
the act of seeking patronage from the powerful in the Cultivation World can indeed be considered a highly profitable investment.
However, if the investment fails, all that was invested upfront would be lost as well.
As thoughts flickered through his mind, He Song quickly suppressed them.
The most important factor in making acquaintances with such esteemed seniors is fate.
Just like his relationship with Xiao Qing.
If it wasn’t for He Song’s impromptu decision back then, Xiao Qing would have most likely gone unnoticed by him.
That is to say,
securing such fortunes, in the end, is, in fact, mostly a matter of luck.
And moreover,
He Song, by now, was no longer the weak cultivator who needed to rely on others for opportunities.
To Xiao Qing, He Song was now that respected senior.
Even to many Foundation Establishment cultivators and Qi Refining stage cultivators, He Song could also be considered a senior and esteemed being.
Being such a figure himself, He Song naturally wouldn’t develop any other thoughts on the matter.
“Before coming here, I told you that my main purpose was to participate in this large-scale auction,” he said.
“Do you have any arrangements for this matter?”
Now that the previous misunderstanding had been resolved and his small cup of spirit tea had achieved his objective,
it was naturally time to discuss serious matters.
Looking at Xiao Qing, He Song couldn’t help but harbor some expectation.
Xiao Qing was an insider at the Treasure Pavilion.
If she were truly willing to make an effort, his actions here could be much more convenient.
In such a situation, He Song naturally looked forward to Xiao Qing’s response.
Having just received a piece of fortune from He Song’s hands,
Xiao Qing might just bring him a pleasant surprise.
“To be honest, Sir,” she began,
“when I first heard that Sir was coming to participate in this auction, I did not make any other preparations.”
“After all, at that time, Sir had not informed this junior of his identity.”
“Therefore, even if there were conveniences within the Treasure Pavilion, Sir could not have taken part in them.”
“But now,”
“since Sir is a Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, if you truly wish to acquire Treasures from this large auction,”
“there are indeed conveniences.”
“I wonder which Treasures Sir is interested in.”
“If possible, this junior can contact the sellers of these items for Sir.”
“That way, if they are willing to meet, Sir can naturally offer them a satisfactory price and directly purchase these items.”
