Qian Hong sighed.
For now, it seemed best to hire a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator to do the job.
If successful, it would be a permanent solution, and even if it failed, it would only result in the loss of some Spirit Stones.
If it still did not work out in the end, even Foundation Establishment would not suffice.
After all, in the long run, the threat posed by a talented Formation Master should not be underestimated.
Mo Hua was the Junior Formation master’s doing, the Qian Family knew, and naturally, Master Luo knew as well.
He had only speculated before, but now that he knew for sure, his feelings became even more complex.
How could it be such a coincidence?
Immediately, doubts arose in his heart. Could a teenage first-rank Formation Master really have such exceptional talent?
Master Luo wanted to verify it with his own eyes.
He sought out Old Mr. Feng.
Old Mr. Feng had been making pills and saving people in Tongxian City for over a hundred years, dealing with Loose Cultivators, Clan cultivators, the poor, the rich, those of low status, and those of high status alike. Master Luo was no exception.
When Master Luo’s grandson had been gravely ill years ago, it was Old Mr. Feng who healed him.
And the Compound Formation in Old Mr. Feng’s Alchemy Furnace was personally drawn by Master Luo as a gesture of gratitude.
However, although the Compound Formation was exquisite, it was not of the first rank.
Old Mr. Feng was discussing Pill Recipes with other Pill Masters in the Alchemist’s Business when he heard of Master Luo’s visit.
After pondering for a moment, Old Mr. Feng asked for Master Luo to be invited into the parlor to be served tea.
The parlor of the Alchemist’s Business was specially designated for receiving guests. From the entrance to the parlor, high walls separated the path, hiding the interior workings of the Alchemist’s Business from view.
Patterns of Formations adorned the walls, which could blur the perception of Divine Sense. While they could not completely block it out, unless one’s Divine Sense was exceptionally strong, they would not be able to detect anything crucial.
Walking the path, Master Luo observed his surroundings and inwardly lamented:
“This is indeed the work of a first-rank Formation Master.”
Once inside the parlor, upon meeting each other and exchanging pleasantries, Old Mr. Feng asked:
“Master Luo, what brings you here?”
After hesitating for a long time, Master Luo said, “I wish to meet that ‘Junior Formation Master.’”
“Mo Hua?”
Master Luo nodded, “That’s the name.”
Old Mr. Feng frowned, “Just to meet?”
“To tell you the truth, after studying Formations for many years, I’ve never encountered such an exceptionally talented Formation Master. It’s both amazing and curious, so I wished to meet them,” said Master Luo.
“It has nothing to do with the Qian Family?”
“It has nothing to do with the Qian Family!”
Old Mr. Feng fell silent, musing.
Master Luo earnestly said, “I hope you can introduce us.”
After hesitating for a while, Old Mr. Feng replied, “Well then, Mo Hua will be coming to the Alchemist’s Business later. You can meet then. Please wait a moment, Master Luo.”
Master Luo was delighted, “Thank you, Mr. Feng.”
The two then sat in the parlor, sipping tea, chatting casually, and reminiscing about the past.
After two rounds of tea, Master Luo was getting slightly anxious, when he heard the light footsteps coming, and looked up to see a child with an ordinary appearance and adorable features enter through the door.
On the fair little face, the eyes sparkled with vivacity, as lustrous as the stars.
Master Luo’s eyes widened slightly, filled with surprise.
A faint light hovered above the child’s spiritual palace, indicating a brimming Sea of Consciousness and an extraordinary Divine Sense.
Master Luo felt almost certain in his heart.
