Chapter 143 - Become My Disciple!

Name:Ah Chun Author:invayne
Master Lin Fen was a bit bewildered by Ah Chun's sudden apology. Then he realized he did not explain himself very well so he quickly helped Ah Chun stand up straight. "Miss Ah that is not what I meant. The quality of your pill is really high. I was wondering who actually refined it. To be honest there are only a few people who can refine healing lotus pills of this quality within the whole of the Heavenly Realm. I myself am one of them. I wanted to know who refined it incase I knew that person. But if you say you are the one to refine it..."

"But I am the one who refined it…" Ah Chun answered a little upset since she thought this old man was not believing her words. 

"Miss Ah did you not say that this was your first time refining it?" Master Lin Fen was getting a little excited if this girl was indeed the one who refined it she would be a genius!

"Yes, it was... I have never refined a pill since before these twenty-four. If you don't want to buy them I can just take them somewhere else. Meimei lets go." Ah Chun got up to leave. She was not going to sell to someone who thought she was a liar.

"No! Wait! Miss Ah, I'm sorry! I'm sorry if I offended you! I was just trying to confirm that my ears were not playing tricks on me. To be honest Miss Ah, since it's the case that you yourself refined them not only will I give you double the amount that these pills are worth. I would also like to ask you to become my disciple! The only thing I ask is that you refine the pill one more time for me to see." Master Lin Fen was getting anxious. If this girl could really refine these pills in front of him of the same quality, there was no way he would let her leave here without agreeing to be his disciple!

"Ummm… I do not mind refining them again, but I do not have the herbs to do so. So you will need to supply them. But I already have a master, three to be precise." Ah Chun felt a headache coming on. She knew it would be good to take on a master pill refiner as her master but she could always just have Fei Hong teach her as well… 

"Do not worry about the herbs and as for the disciple thing I would really insist if you are going to the academy you can train directly under me and I can offer you the best cultivation environment in the whole academy!" Master Lin fen determined! He would not let this genius go!

Ah Chun thought for a minute then she looked at Meimei to see her nod before coming to a decision. "Ok. I can become your disciple if you can offer me such good terms." She would be a fool to pass up the opportunity to get good cultivation resources from the Academy.

A smile appeared on the man's face when he heard her answer. He quickly had the old clerk go get the herb's needed for the Healing Lotus pill.

It was not very long that the herbs were processed after she received them as she started her refining process. She condensed her soul force producing a golden flame as she did before, before sticking the flame into her cauldron. She then extracted the essence from the herbs one at a time very carefully. She did not want to make any mistakes and mess up a chance for a good cultivation environment at the academy!  

What Ah Chun did not realize was the expression on Master Lin Fen's face when he saw the golden flame. His eyes went wide in surprise and his smile rose so much that the edges of his lips almost reached his ears! He knew he had found a rare gem! 

As Ah Chun finished her refining process she tapped the side of the cauldron and the finished pills shot into the air. Easily catching them in the palm of her hand, Ah Chun turned and looked at Master Lin Fen before showing the pills to him. "Master Lin Fen please inspect them..."

In her hand sat six milky white perfectly round pills. The herbal scent coming off them filled the room causing those who smelt it to feel relaxed. "Mhm. Perfect! Miss Ah I would like to take you as my direct disciple. As promised I will offer double the amount that the pills are worth and will make sure you have the best cultivation environment." 

Ah Chun was getting used to the whole taking on a master thing. She was happy though since at least this time her body was not forced to move on its own. She bent down to her knees and kowtowed three times to Master Lin Fen. "This disciple greets master!" 

"Good! Good! I have been waiting for a disciple like you to come along! Here take this cauldron. I see that your's is somewhat of a basic cauldron." Master Lin Fen was very happy. He had been searching high and low for a disciple but never found one that seemed to be worth teaching. But today one walked right on to his doorstep! He would be willing to hand over the entire Heavenly Realm if this disciple asked for it! 

"Master that cauldron..." The old clerk was surprised to see what master Lin Fen was handing over as if it was nothing more than a common item.

"It's fine! It's fine! My disciple only deserves the best!" The old clerk sighed. 'Master you do realize you are already spoiling the disciple you just took in!'
