Chapter 1399 That figure
She looked up and saw a man in his twenties standing in front of a cave dwelling, staring at her.
Feng Jiu stepped forward. After catching a glimpse of an identity badge at his waist as well as an alchemist badge pinned to his chest, she saluted. âI have seen Elder Brother. I am here to deliver spirit herbs, but it is my first time to come up and I have no idea where Martial Uncle Shangguanâs cave is located.â
In this Pill Sun Sect, disciples addressed others with Senior Brother or Junior Brother regardless of their Alchemist rank. The only difference was that each peak leader must be called Patriarch and his disciples must be called Martial Uncles.
âYouâre sending spirit herbs?â The man stared at Feng Jiu and sized her up for a while.âIsnât this Junior Brother Guoâs task originally? Whyâs the sudden change? â
âItâs like this, Senior Brother Guo has to go down the mountain temporarily for business, so Iâm sending the herbs to Martial Uncle Shangguan.â
The man nodded. âMm, itâs your first time here. Donât walk around, go straight on this path. The last cave is Shangguanâs cave dwelling.â
âThanks so much, Senior Brother.â She thanked him with a smile.
The man took a look at Feng Jiu. âHowever, I just seem to see that Martial Uncle Shangguan was called by the patriarchâs attendant. Maybe she is not in her cave now. The cave has a boundary. Martial Uncle Shangguan didnât accept an attendant at her side, so I guess you canât get in.â
âAh? Well!â She was startled for a moment, then showed a simple and honest smile. âIt doesnât matter. I will wait outside Martial Uncle Shangguanâs cave. Anyway, I have sent medicine to other places and have nothing urgent presently.â
The man coughed gently and his eyes flashed. âin fact, you can also leave the medicinal pill materials. Iâll take them to her for you when the Martial Uncle comes.â
When she heard his reply, Feng Jiuâs eyes moved slightly and she felt strange. However, only a simple and honest smile was shown on her face, pretending that she didnât understand. âItâs all right. Iâm free anyway. Itâs my fault to let Senior Brother do my job and delay Senior Brotherâs matter. Or, if Senior Brother Guo knows that I ask Senior Brotherâs help, he will scold me.â
âThisâŠâ The man still tried to tell her again, but Feng Jiu interrupted him just when he started speaking.
âBy the way, Senior Brother, which Martial Uncleâs cave is this?â She looked at the cave behind the man curiously. âIt looks so big!â
âMy masterâs surname is Duan. He is the first disciple of the Third Sun Patriarch.â When saying this, some arrogance emerged in his glabella.
âIt turns out to be Martial Uncle Duanâs cave. No wonder itâs so extraordinary.â
She immediately said with an admiring look, âI heard that among those below Third Sun Patriarch, Martial Uncle Duanâs alchemist rank is the highest. Itâs really awesome! Since Senior Brother can worship Uncle Duan as his master, your alchemy talent must also be at the heavenâs proud sonâs level. By the way, my name is Feng Jiu. I still donât know, how should I address Senior Brother?â
When he heard Feng Jiuâs words, he was even more arrogant and even the corners of his mouth curved up. He glanced at Feng Jiu and coughed gently, then he said modestly. âOur Pill Sun Sect is the largest alchemist sect in the Eight Supreme Empires. There are many heavenâs proud sons in the sect. I canât afford this title.â
With that, he paused a bit and continued, âIf you see me later, just call me Senior Brother Hu.â
âYes, Senior Brother Hu.â
She responded to him with a smile. Suddenly, the man in front of her had a surprised look in his eyes. He gazed obsessively at a certain placeâŠ
