Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Actually Rejected?

“Only provided for internal use?” Lou Qianxue smiled. “I’m going to register my identity as an alchemist here. Am I considered as an internal staff?”

Master Huo shook his head. “No. It has to be the elder of the Alchemy Union, an official elder, or the chairman for example. Only they are qualified to use fifth-grade spiritual herbs.”

Lou Qianxue frowned. “Is it? So there is no way I can get this bunch of purple frost sacred bamboo?”

Master Huo’s expression became less solemn as he slowly said, “No, you still have a chance.”

“Tell me about it.” Lou Qianxue was keen to know.

“You can be my disciple. I’m the only fourth-grade alchemist in the Alchemy Union in Fengyang prefecture. Even fifth-grade spiritual herbs are under my control. If you become my disciple, even if I give fifth-grade spiritual herbs to you, no one will dare to say anything.”

“!!!”

When they heard these words, every person in the crowd sucked in a cold breath one after another.

Thereafter, they looked at Lou Qianxue with envy and jealousy.

“This girl is too lucky!!!”

“Even Master Huo fancies her!”

“Master Huo! Our Tian Zhao Dynasty has only a grand total of three fourth-grade alchemists. Besides those two fourth-grade alchemists from the Imperial city, who else can be put on par with Master Huo? How lucky can this little girl get? She can have a meteoric rise in just a short period. I really envy her!”

“Exactly. If Master Huo is willing to accept me as a disciple, I’ll be even willing to die...”

“But why is this little girl in a daze? If I were her, I would immediately kneel, kowtow, and call him Master. She...”

Everyone felt that it was Lou Qianxue’s blessings of a few lifetimes that Master Huo was willing to accept her as his disciple.

That was why they thought Lou Qianxue should be grateful and kowtow to him to thank him for his favor.

Even Master Huo smiled as he calmly and happily waited for Lou Qianxue to call him Master.

However...

“Be your disciple?” Lou Qianxue’s delicate and beautiful face revealed a strange smile. Thereafter, she shook her head. “No, it’s not necessary.”

To date, she had never met someone more impressive than the ‘Alchemy God’ from her ‘memory of the Alchemy God’ in the area of alchemy.

Moreover, when she had accepted the ‘memory of the Alchemy God,’ she had already treated the ‘Alchemy God’ as her own Master in her heart. So how could she worship someone else as Master?

“You aren’t willing?” Master Huo’s smile froze, and his old face swiftly darkened.

Lou Qianxue nodded. “Yes, I don’t want to.”

“!!!” The crowd was so shocked that everyone’s eyeballs almost fell out. One by one, dumbfounded expressions appeared on their faces as they looked at Lou Qianxue in disbelief.

Did she make a mistake?

Being fancied by Master Huo is something others have been dreaming of for years!

But this little girl actually rejected him?

Really rejected him???

Master Huo’s expression also became stiff and cold, but he still did not give up. He tried to persuade her again. “Young lady, in terms of alchemy, only a handful of people who have surpassed me exist in the whole Tian Zhao Dynasty. If you have my guidance, you’ll definitely surpass Yangyan very soon. Are you serious about rejecting my offer?”

Yangyan? That Young Master Yang? Even though that young man just had a breakthrough and became a third-grade alchemist, Lou Qianxue did not take him seriously.

Lou Qianxue’s long eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly raised her eyes. Rays of light glistened in her beautiful eyes. “Master Huo, I have a suggestion. I don’t know if I should say it.”

Master Huo thought that she had changed her mind and wanted to talk about her conditions. His face looked slightly better. “Feel free to say what you want to say.”
