The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 825 - 823: Blue Feather Taoist Tea

Chapter 825: Chapter 823: Blue Feather Taoist Tea

Following the successful negotiation of the trade with Dan Dao Courtyard, Lin Bai.

One month later, Gu Yueqing would once again start forging the Human Emperor Elixir in the Daoist Arena.

This news immediately spread throughout the entire Miracle Ridge, causing a sensation.

By this time, Gu Yueqing had already taken Lin Bai to her place of quiet cultivation.

On the way,

Gu Yueqing said, "You really shouldn’t have done that."

Lin Bai asked with a smile, "What?"

Gu Yueqing said, "When we left just now, you shouldn’t have provoked Qiu Yukui."

Lin Bai said, "Did I provoke him?"

Gu Yueqing said with a smile, "Although you didn’t clash with him verbally, it was clear that he cares a lot about me, and those things you said, about visiting my boudoir, about being impatient..., those words provoke him far more than insulting him would!"

Lin Bai shook his head indifferently, "If someone is stepping on my head, should I just let them defecate and urinate on me?"

"I was really here to request alchemy from you at the Dan Dao Courtyard; it’s his fault for misunderstanding and causing a scene."

"Since he is causing such a scene, he can’t blame me."

"If I am not comfortable, then no one should think about being comfortable!"

"I’d rather be a broken piece of jade than an intact tile!"

Lin Bai said coldly.

Gu Yueqing added, "You should know that he is a warrior on the Heroes List, and also the Chief Disciple of the Knife Dao Sect. Angering him brings you nothing but harm and absolutely no benefit!"

Lin Bai laughed, "In that case, I have even less to worry about."

"I’ve provoked more than just one warrior on the Heroes List!"

"Besides, in the Miracle Ridge, the list of people who want to kill me has already grown from the Sword Art Academy to Dan Dao Courtyard!"

"Where does Qiu Yukui fit into it, he’ll have to take a number!"

Lin Bai said with disdain.

Gu Yueqing was taken aback, then asked curiously, "Have you provoked many people?"

Lin Bai gave a cold laugh but did not answer.

Lin Bai pondered silently; the adversaries he had made in the Miracle Ridge started, most troublingly, with Liujing Feng.

Liujing Feng was the Deputy Director of the Fist Daoist Courtyard, and his wife was the flesh and blood daughter of the Director of the Fist Daoist Courtyard. Moreover, Lin Bai had killed the Director’s grandson. Once the Director found out, a fierce battle would be inevitable!

This was Lin Bai’s biggest headache.

In front of the Director of the Fist Daoist Courtyard, what was Qiu Yukui worth?

The Fist Daoist Courtyard was Lin Bai’s first formidable enemy!

The second formidable enemy was Wu Song from the Chulong Courtyard!

Wu Song and Lin Bai had become mortal enemies.

When Wu Song had coerced Bai Huatian to cancel the engagement between Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao in the Imperial City of the Shenwu Kingdom, Lin Bai had already harbored the intention to kill Wu Song.

Throughout the ages, the hatred for killing one’s father, seizing one’s wife, and grieving for a lost child are all unbearable!

Even if Wu Song was now willing to settle their grievances, Lin Bai would not agree.

The third formidable enemy comprised two names: Longqing Feng and Qin Beiao.

During their encounter in the Lingfan Mountain Range, Lin Bai had sensed that these two were not ordinary individuals.

To the extent that Lin Bai had harbored a killing intent in the Lingfan Mountain Range and had attempted to eliminate both, it was unfortunate that they had impressive escape skills, allowing them to dodge the calamity.

Longqing Feng and Qin Beiao seemed like tough opponents; Lin Bai did not believe they would let go of the murder attempt in the Lingfan Mountain Range without seeking revenge!

Only after these three formidable enemies would it be Qiu Yukui’s turn.

Gu Yueqing said, "If you provoke Qiu Yukui now, and if a month later, you fail to teach me how to forge the Human Emperor Elixir, he will certainly kill you in the Arena of the Dan Dao Courtyard!"

Lin Bai laughed, "As long as you’re not too foolish, I won’t lose!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yueqing softly laughed and said, "I’m not foolish; I’m quite smart."

Lin Bai said, "Since you have so much confidence in yourself, my victory is assured."

"One month from now, I will definitely teach you how to refine the Human Emperor Elixir,"

Lin Bai said with a smile.

Along the way, Gu Yueqing chatted with Lin Bai as they walked past the layers of buildings within the Dan Dao Courtyard and arrived at a purple bamboo grove.

The bamboo forest was serene and the weather was mild and sunny, creating the feeling of walking through an immortal realm.

Even though the fierce sun hung high in the sky and the heat was intense, a refreshing cool breeze could be felt in the bamboo forest.

In the depths of the forest, there was a simple bamboo house.

This was where Gu Yueqing cultivated in seclusion and also where her boudoir was located.

Gu Yueqing led Lin Bai back to the living room of her house and, after settling Lin Bai down, waved her hand, and a set of exquisite tea ware appeared in front of both Lin Bai and Gu Yueqing.

Gu Yueqing extended her fair hand like jade, picked up the teacup, and poured tea for Lin Bai.

Lin Bai picked up the cup of tea that Gu Yueqing had poured and said with a laugh, "I guess very few people on the Miracle Ridge get to drink tea personally served by you."

"This tea is also a medicinal tea that you’ve carefully blended!"

Lin Bai lifted the teacup and drank it all in one go.

Gu Yueqing’s eyes curved with a smile, "Brother Lin jests. I’m used to living secluded, and few people visit this place. And even when someone does, it’s usually my close girlfriends, so indeed, very few men have tasted my tea."

"This tea is blended from three hundred and twelve precious spiritual medicines. What does Brother Lin think?"

Gu Yueqing asked curiously.

Lin Bai savored it carefully and then said with a smile, "The richness of the Golden Mist Flower, the sweet fragrance of Thousand Mountain Leaves, the lingering essence of Water Moon, the aromatic scent of the Hundred Spirit Flower..."

In a calm breath, Lin Bai named all three hundred or so spiritual medicines contained in the tea.

Gu Yueqing looked at Lin Bai, shocked beyond belief, her beautiful eyes completely stupefied.

She was astonished!

Gu Yueqing looked at Lin Bai, unbelieving that he had accurately named all three hundred plus spiritual medicines.

Up to now, Gu Yueqing had only shared this tea with five people, including the Dean of the Dan Dao Courtyard, Lu Qingyu.

Even when Lu Qingyu drank this tea in the past, he only identified a little over a hundred of the spiritual medicines.

And yet, Lin Bai had accurately named all three hundred plus spiritual medicines!

Clearly, Lin Bai’s attainment in the field of medicine was profound!

Even Gu Yueqing now felt that Lin Bai’s mastery in the art of medicine might have far surpassed even Dean Lu Qingyu of the Dan Dao Courtyard!

Lin Bai then continued, "The most amazing part is that you actually managed to find the ’Qingyu Dao Tree’. It must have taken a lot of time."

"You could even discern the Qingyu Dao Tree!"

Gu Yueqing said in utter shock.

The Qingyu Dao Tree was a type of spiritual tree in the world.

Once a warrior practiced his Martial Arts Will under the Qingyu Dao Tree and managed to perfect his Martial Intent to an exquisite level in three months, which immediately made the tree renowned under heaven as a coveted treasure for cultivation!

Because of the competition among warriors under heaven, the Qingyu Dao Tree gradually became extinct and disappeared from the Martial World.

It must have taken Gu Yueqing a great deal of effort and energy to find the Qingyu Dao Tree.

Seeing Gu Yueqing’s shock, Lin Bai said with a light smile, "You served me this cup of tea to see how many spiritual medicines I could identify, to test my understanding of medicine, right?"

Seeing that Lin Bai had seen through her intentions, Gu Yueqing’s eyes revealed a faintly embarrassed smile.

Lin Bai put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Would you take off your veil? I truly don’t like speaking to someone through a veil."

"I can,"

Gu Yueqing said calmly with a smile, her graceful fingers slowly removing the veil from her face.

As the veil came off, a breathtakingly beautiful fairy-like visage, flawless and perfect, appeared in front of Lin Bai.

At that moment, her face seemed to possess a magical power that absorbed Lin Bai’s three souls and seven spirits, rendering him completely stupefied!

"In this world, there could be such beauty..."

Lin Bai said in a trance.

Lin Bai believed he had seen countless beauties in his life, including Jian Ruohan, Bai Xiaoxiao, Hong Su, and Ye Suxin, who could all be considered peerless in this mortal world.

But now, in front of Gu Yueqing, Lin Bai felt that all the women he had seen paled in comparison to the beauty before him.
