"It doesn't matter whether I'm angry or not. After all, I'm just an old servant of the Bai family. But what kind of status is Master Long? How could he be troubled by a little Si? You can handle this matter. You must make Master Long calm down, otherwise you won't be able to continue running this shop in Jiuxian Mountain!" Old Mo has never bullied others, but this time he had to announce the name of the Bai family of Jiuxian Mountain!
Although the owner of this restaurant is already a master in the early stage of fusion, he trembles with fear when he hears the name of the Bai family. After all, Taoist Tongtian is a big overlord in the entire Jiuxian Mountain, and only Patriarch Hongye can compete with him!
"Oh my! I am so sorry! Mr. Mo, please don't be angry. We really don't know this Master Long! Master Long, please come in. I will personally pour you a glass of wine to apologize!" The owner of the restaurant nodded and admitted his mistake. Although he had never heard of Master Long, he had to apologize to the other party at this moment!
The waiter standing by was so scared that he knelt down, trembling and not daring to speak. Anyone here could easily crush him to death like an ant!
"Forget it, it's not entirely their fault. It's normal for others to look down on me since I'm dressed like this. It's getting late now, and I have to find a place to stay." Long Junhai turned around and left with a smile. His words made the waiter and the boss feel relieved, but Old Mo on the side nervously chased after him.
"Master Long, please wait a minute! Our eldest daughter has prepared a banquet upstairs. She happened to see your back just now, so she asked me to come down to take a look. Our daughter will be here soon. She has been thinking about you all these years. Please do me the honor of having a meal with her!" Old Mo had just communicated with Bai Ruofei, who was also very excited and immediately ran down from the attic.
Long Junhai was about to speak when he heard a woman's gentle voice behind him: "Master Long, is this really you?"
"Miss Bai, I hope we are all well." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"It's Master Long! Seeing you like this, I almost didn't recognize you! Did you... successfully transcend the tribulation? Why do I feel like you've reached the highest level of mortal heart refinement?" The last time Bai Ruofei met Long Junhai, he was only in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm. And yet, in just a few hundred years, he's already transcended the tribulation! If not, it would be impossible for him to hide his aura so well!
Upon hearing this, Long Junhai smiled and said, "I have indeed succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, but I am still a long way from reaching the highest level of heart cultivation in the mortal world. Without entering the mortal world, how can I cultivate my heart? I am only just beginning to understand the basics."
Refining the mind in the mortal world is something that everyone must do in order to stabilize their cultivation and prevent going astray. People like Long Junhai who can hide their aura so perfectly have generally reached the highest level of refining the mind in the mortal world and are definitely masters of the fusion stage.
"Master Long, you are too modest. This is not the place to talk. Please go upstairs! I didn't thank you properly before, and this time I must do my best to be a good host! In Jiuxian Mountain, our Bai family still has a certain influence." Bai Ruofei said with a smile.
"In that case, I won't refuse anymore. I just smelled that the food and wine in this restaurant are delicious. You have to spend money!" Long Junhai licked his lips, looking very hungry.
"Boss, serve another table of good wine and delicious food immediately! It is a blessing for your restaurant to be liked by Master Long!" Bai Ruofei immediately ordered the owner of the restaurant to serve a table of the best wine and food.
Only then did Long Junhai happily follow Bai Ruofei up to the attic. After the three of them went upstairs, a group of monks on the first floor whispered to each other and were all very interested in Long Junhai.
"Who is that person? To be able to get the eldest daughter of the Bai family to personally invite us, this person must be someone extraordinary!"
"Didn't Miss Bai say that this Master Long is a master of the Fusion Stage? And how can someone who can be called a master be ordinary?"
"We have quite a few masters in the Fusion Stage at Jiuxian Mountain, but there aren't many who can be called masters by Miss Bai. This Master Long must have come from somewhere else, right?"
…
In the attic, Bai Ruofei raised her glass with both hands and said very respectfully, "Master Long, I never drink, but to thank you for your kindness, I will drink first!"
After Bai Ruofei finished speaking, she drank the glass of Jade Dew Immortal Wine in one gulp. Her fair skin instantly turned red from her face to her neck. This was the first time she had drunk alcohol since she was a child, and only Long Junhai had the face to let her have a drink.
"Haha, it seems that Miss Bai really can't drink. In fact, this wine is also a good thing. Different people, at different times, will have different feelings when drinking the same glass of wine. I like to savor it slowly. It is spicy when it first enters the mouth, but it has a mellow fragrance after tasting it for a while, and it is like a rising fire when it enters the stomach. Just like life, every period has its own unique highlights." Long Junhai took a sip of the wine and felt that the wine was indeed good. It had been many years since he had tasted such pure wine.
"When I first met Master Long, you gave me the impression of being evil and arrogant, and making people feel that you were conceited and overly arrogant. Now when I meet you again, you make me feel like I'm bathed in a spring breeze, making me feel relaxed. It can be seen that your state of mind has improved a lot. This is something that I have studied for many years but have not yet fully understood." Bai Ruofei felt that the difference in personality between the current Long Junhai and the previous Long Junhai was too great, so she couldn't help but express her thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Long Junhai laughed heartily. "Miss Bai, you're still as straightforward and frank as ever. It's precisely because you're so stubborn that it's so hard for you to change your mindset. Actually, this isn't a bad thing. Since your mindset can't be changed, why not stick to your original aspiration? Only by keeping your original aspiration can you achieve your goal and keep your heart of Taoism forever!"
"Only by staying true to your original aspiration can you achieve your goal?"
Bai Ruofei recited it softly, thinking in her heart, as if some spiritual light appeared in front of her eyes. If she could catch this spiritual light, her strength would be greatly improved instantly!
"Haha, Miss Bai is a smart person. You can't force things. Haste makes waste. You will make a breakthrough sooner or later."
After Long Junhai finished speaking, he started to eat. The delicacies on the table were indeed good and tasted very fresh, but the only thing he really liked was the pot of wine. After all, no matter how good the food was, it could not taste the same as it did in the past, and no matter how much the wine changed, its nature of intoxicating people could not be changed.
Seeing that Long Junhai was so happy eating, Old Mo on the side immediately winked at Bai Ruofei, asking her to ask Long Junhai to increase the power of her Yaoshi Spirit Sword!
Bai Ruofei immediately understood and quickly said, "Master Long, do you still remember the radiant spiritual sword you forged for me back then?"
"Oh, of course I remember. It was my best work that year." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"I have collected some rare materials over the years. I hope you can help me increase the power of the Yaoshi Spirit Sword!" Bai Ruofei said this and quickly bowed to Long Junhai.
