Conquer a Mountain And Become The Great King - Chapter 34

Chapter 34: Extraordinary Water

I’m so ashamed and embarrassed…

That was the first thought that popped up in Bai Xiaoya’s mind. At that moment, her flushed face would definitely be visible if she wasn’t wearing a veil.

It’s just a cup of water, and yet you’re asking for a refill. How did you bring yourself to ask for it…

However, when she saw the look of bewilderment on Su Yu’s face and other complicated emotions such as pain, her heart suddenly beat continuously. She wondered, Are they out of their minds? It’s just a cup of water, but they’re acting like it’s a treasure. One of them wants more, and the other can’t bear to give it away.

She immediately felt inexplicable anger.

“We’ve embarrassed ourselves, Young Master Su. You don’t have to bother.” While trying her best to bear with her fluctuating emotions, she said, “Xiaolong, you may have mine.”

She could see Su Yu heaving a slow and obvious sigh as if he was extremely relieved after she said that. Feeling a little irked, she once again labeled Su Yu as a stingy person.

“Sister, you… Are you really going to let me have it?” Bai Xiaoya asked, looking at the cup of water that Bai Xiaoya had, his eyes full of desire.

“Well, don’t you want to drink it? I haven’t touched this cup yet.” While speaking, Bai Xiaoya looked at Bai Xiaolong in bewilderment, confused by the gaze in his eyes.

It’s just a cup of water. Why wouldn’t I bear to let you have it?

“Why don’t you taste it… before deciding whether or not to give it to me?” Bai Xiaolong suggested as he swallowed mouthfuls of saliva and tried his best to shift his gaze away from the cup of water.

It was not that he did not want to drink it, but rather, his sister was too mighty, in his opinion. If he were to really drink her cup of water, she might just kill him after finding out the truth.

“Give it a taste?” Bai Xiaoya rolled her eyes and thought, It’s just a cup of water. Why make it so complicated?

However, after seeing Bai Xiaolong’s behavior, she decided to try the water out of curiosity.

After thinking about it in silence for a while, she lifted her veil gently and revealed her pink and tender lips that were extremely moist. Su Yu had to admit that her looks were indeed very alluring.

Bai Xiaoya smiled a little. Seems like I’m still as charming as ever.

She took a gentle sip of water, her red lips touching the water like a dragonfly dipping itself in water. The fresh and cool water seemed to have a life of its own as it immediately turned into fluid spring water that slid through the gaps of her teeth. In the end, they gathered together like mischievous children, rolling around the tip of her tongue before slowly flowing down her throat.

She could even feel the water splitting into countless channels in her stomach and surging into her bloodstream, nourishing every part of her body with the circulation of her blood, making all the cells in her body feel rejuvenated. She felt like she had been reborn, and an unprecedented feeling of amazement surged in her heart. She couldn’t help but close her eyes and sense the changes quietly.

This water… is extraordinary!

“Sister, are you… still going to give the water to me?” Bai Xiaolong reminded her after not getting a response for a long time. He was full of anticipation.

However, he was destined to be disappointed as Bai Xiaoya didn’t hear what he said at all. She moaned a little and ignored everyone else as she poured the water into her tiny mouth, completely not bothered about her image as a “goddess”.

Bai Xiaolong looked at his sister in shock and swallowed his saliva continuously with a look of envy.

“Young Master Su, may I know where this water is from?” Bai Xiaoya asked.

“This is from the spiritual spring that my master has created. It’s meant for refreshing one’s mind.”

“Your master? Is he Elder Zhao?”

“Haha, I’m not qualified to be his master…” Elder Zhao interjected calmly, after which Bai Xiaoya’s pupils dilated rapidly. No matter what, Elder Zhao was still an existence who was valued highly by the Pavilion Master of the Spirit Medicine Pavilion. Yet, he said that he wasn’t qualified! How powerful must Su Yu’s master be for Elder Zhao to say that? Could he be a Saint?

I actually thought that Su Yu was a miser. It turns out I just have bad taste and have been projecting my shortcomings on him. Who else in this world can serve us with such water?

“We’ve imposed on you today, Young Master. Thank you for hosting us.” Bai Xiaoya snapped out of her shock and took out an amethyst-colored card. “Here are 100 superior-grade spirit stones. I’ll send someone here to collect 50 kilograms of rice tomorrow. The remaining amount will be considered a deposit for our cooperation.”

An amethyst card was equivalent to cash. After all, it was not convenient to bring about a large number of spirit stones. Hence, with the amethyst card, one would be able to go to the Five Delta Continent Spirit Stone Bank to withdraw some spirit stones.

The Five Deltas Continent Spirit Stone Bank was like a money bank of Su Yu’s previous life. However, it was the only Spirit Stone Bank in the Five Deltas Continent and was the most authoritative.

Su Yu’s heart trembled, and he pretended to be calm while grabbing the amethyst card. 100 superior-grade spirit stones were equivalent to 1,000,000 gold coins. He had just become a pauper, but he became a millionaire again in just a short period! He had never seen so much money in both his lives! The Bai Clan was wealthy and generous, indeed.

“Since you trust me so much, Miss Bai, I can’t disappoint you. Here’s a little token for you.” Secretly pleased with the massive amount of money that he had just earned, Su Yu became much more confident and handed three bottles of spiritual spring water to Bai Xiaoya.

Bai Xiaolong was dumbfounded and about to drool when he looked at the three bottles of spiritual spring water.

“Thank… Thank you, Young Master Su.” Despite Bai Xiaoya’s willpower, she couldn’t help but have a shaky voice. Su Yu’s master was probably the only one who could create such water in the entire continent. Its value was countless times higher than that of the rice. In fact, she’d be willing to spend 100 superior-grade spirit stones on it!

How can it be considered a small token? She wanted to politely decline but couldn’t resist the spiritual spring water’s temptation. Thus, she reached out to grab them. Although there were only three bottles, they felt as heavy as gold.

After sending Bai Xiaoya and Bai Xiaolong out of the room, Su Yu stood on the mountain in high spirits. He took out the bottle that Mu Xiaoxiao had given him, which contained three round turquoise pills.

The pill had a rounded exterior that glistened under the sunlight. Although it was clearly refined using spirit herbs, it seemed extremely sturdy, like metal.

He placed one in his mouth.

Ding…

“Constitution +1”

Su Yu sighed a little. As expected, pills could not be used repeatedly. He reckoned that they wouldn’t be effective when he took them again.

Having a small addition to his Constitution was at least better than nothing.

“Woof…”

Furry rubbed itself against the hem of Su Yu’s pants and stared at him while waving its tail continuously.

“You’ll get a share too, glutton.”

Su Yu hesitated for a moment and fed a Body Tempering Pill to Furry. It would be a waste for him to take another one, and Furry was his first pet. Hence, he had to improve Furry’s Constitution.

To Su Yu’s surprise, Furry did not react at all after taking the Body Tempering Pill, and it was as if the latter had just eaten a candy.

*Plop!*

The soft sound attracted Su Yu’s attention,

He looked up to see that Han Dapeng was seated on the ground that was not too far away from him and pointing at Furry with shaky fingers. He then looked at Su Yu’s bottle with his mouth gaping, as if he had seen a ghost…
