Mr. Shu? Three black lines fell from Su Muhan’s head.
He winked at the waitress in the private room, a pretty woman.
The woman immediately understood and walked out of the private room.
A moment later, the tree demon stood before Lan Ziye. He was a middle-aged man of ordinary appearance and medium build, looking very honest and simple. He kept his head down and eyes lowered in front of Su Muhan and Lan Ziye, and was always respectful.
"This tea is good. It must be difficult to grow, right?" Lan Ziye asked first.
The tree demon looked up, and when he saw Lan Ziye, he was slightly surprised, but it disappeared in an instant. Then he replied respectfully, "Miss, this tea needs an environment with abundant spiritual energy to be grown, so I grow it in a greenhouse using a spiritual energy generator!"
"Aura generator? That must be very expensive, right?" Lan Ziye was a little surprised. It seemed a bit extravagant!
"So this tea can only be enjoyed by very distinguished guests. It is the treasure of our store!" said the tree demon proudly.
"Does this tea have a name?" Lan Ziye asked again.
"This tea was originally called 'Blue Rain Spirit Tea'. It was given by a patriarch of the Lan family three thousand years ago. However..." The tree demon smiled proudly at this point, "You know I'm a demon. I was afraid the Lan family would target me, so I changed the name of this tea to Floating Fragrant Spirit Tea. I'm just trying to make a living and get some cultivation resources. You know, it's not easy for us demons to earn cultivation resources!"
It was indeed Grandma Tea's Blue Rain Spirit Tea! Lan Ziye was even more surprised. He didn't expect to come across something related to him after three thousand years. How rare!
"Do you mean that this tea originally belonged to the Lan family?" Lan Ziye raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately.
The tree demon's heart tightened as he suddenly realized the girl's surname was also Lan. He felt extremely regretful. He really couldn't keep his mouth shut. (﹏)
Was she going to sue him for piracy? Lan Xuancheng seemed to be pretty good at cracking down on piracy these days!
"Don't be nervous. I don't mean to ask you for this tea. Even if I like this tea, I will spend money to buy it, and I need your consent!" Lan Ziye said in a gentle voice.
After a pause, Lan Ziye continued, "I just want to know some things about the Lan family's past, especially about the purple-eyed patriarch!"
"Are you talking about the last Purple-Eyed Patriarch of the Lan Family?" Seeing that Lan Ziye wasn't here to cause trouble for the tea, the tree demon perked up. He looked at Lan Ziye carefully and said, "You know what? You and that Patriarch are quite similar. And that Patriarch was also called Lan Ziye!"
Lan Ziye: ...Isn't that her? (ー_ー)!!
"That family head is a genius among geniuses, and she's very good at fighting, but... she loves fighting too much. When she can't find anyone to fight with her, she tortures us little demons. We little demons are all terrified of her and stay away from her as far away as possible! It's so scary, so scary!" The tree demon swallowed with lingering fear.
Lan Ziye: ...really? Is she that violent? She doesn't always get into fights, okay?
"However, she disappeared later, and the Lan family searched for her for many years. They searched the entire Lanxuan Continent several times, and her brothers searched like crazy, not even letting us monsters go. They asked questions when they saw monsters, and beat them when they couldn't get any answers. After beating them, they still asked questions... In short, those years were really not a good life for monsters!" The tree monster sighed again.
